Some elements of contexts before diving into the story:
"My First Year with Austin" is the third book in a trilogy. The previous two stories, "My First Year in College" and "My First Year in Prison" (24 chapters each) are both available on Literotica.
Generally, this trilogy follows the life of Tyler, first when he is 18/19 in College, then, ten years later, as he finds himself locked-up in prison, and here, in this third story, as he (finally!) starts a serious relationship with his College crush and best friend, Austin.
After years of entertaining the idea, it is time for those two to figure it out. Is their relationship meant to last?
You do not have to have read the first books to enjoy the story - I believe it stands on its own - but I do think that it would improve your experience as you will get the references to past characters and storylines.
I would say this story is a rather romantic / dramatic one, with elements of humour, some twisted characters, and a ton of sex and erotic situations. As always, it starts slow but it gets crazier as the story unfolds.
This story is purely fictional and all characters featured are above the age of 18. The story is destined to be read by a mature audience, and in any case, by people over the age of 18. Enjoy!

MY FIRST YEAR WITH AUSTIN
Chapter 1: Like a 90's tv show
No nine years gap this time around. Only nine days separate the last pages of My First Year in Prison and those lines.
I figured that starting this third story on the day I moved in with Austin in Los Angeles was making the most sense.
First, I cannot help but to appreciate the throwback to My First Year in College.
How poetic - (or cheesy? You tell me...) - is it to start this new instalment the same way, by moving-in with hunky dreamy Austin?
Second, when thinking about what other crazy year of my life I could share with my readers after college and prison, I came to the conclusion that the year I spent with Austin in L.A. was certainly worth the tale.
The porn, the fights, the drama, the sex... And the LOVE of course. I hope you are all set for a hell of a ride!
Clearly, I was not prepared for what was coming when I landed in L.A.X.
I was freaking nervous -- and sweating a lot -- all throughout the taxi ride.
It felt like I was being transported into a Melrose Place's episode when I walked into the apartment complex. (I hope you get the reference; the nineties were certainly peak tv in my mind.)
There was a large pool in the middle of the place, surrounding by two floors of apartments on each side. Blue neon lights were illuminating the pool at night.
Do not get me wrong, the place was cool and we were fortunate to live there, but I definitely did not want my life to turn into a scandalous and vicious 90's TV show.
I certainly did not need any more drama... If only I knew what was coming!
We were living about thirty minutes away from the large stadium in construction on which Austin was working, and where he would spend most of his time.
Do not ask me what Austin was actually supposed to do there, I never really got it.
It had something to do with making sure to get approvals from various local administrations, dealing with Human Resources' issues, and discussing with the major US football teams (Austin's favourite part of job of course) the marketing and promotion of the future stadium.
Coming back to Los Angeles had not been the easiest decision for me.
I did not have a lot of fond memories from my previous experience there, but Austin had a one-year contract to stay in L.A. and well, where else was I supposed to go?
I had no job, - and no perspective of getting any in my field since I had lost my license to practice -, I was coming out of prison, - which always look great when meeting new people... -, and in any event, there was no place other than my boyfriend's arms that I would have rather been in.
If I could really call Austin my "boyfriend"... This whole thing was still very surreal.
In the plane, I hoped, if not prayed, that the couple of weeks I had spent at my brother's house on the other side of the country did not make Austin rethink everything.
Can you imagine? What if he was already regretting his declaration of love? What if we just did not connect anymore? We had known each other for ten years but we had not lived together since our freshman year of college, and we had been dating for just a few days since I was out of prison.
God, what had I gotten myself into? I was starting to freak-out and I wrote a text to Janice in the cab.
"Jan, if everything goes to shit, I can come to your place, right?"
It was getting exhausting to be the messy friend while Janice had always had her life together. She was working at a rehabilitation centre and she was constantly helping everyone, including me.
She replied right away:
"Stop freaking-out and try not to mess this up! But if you do, yes, you can come at our place."
"Our" place. Oh right, she was living with Richard, her wall-street type boyfriend. Handsome, tall, sexy but always talking about big numbers and finance stuff. Boring dude.
To be fair, maybe I was a bit jealous that Janice had found herself a hot wealthy and seemingly down to earth guy while I was losing my job and being convicted for drug trafficking during the same period.
Anyway, she was right, as always. It was up to me not to mess this up.
I had to pull myself together. It was Austin after all. We had fucked, or more precisely, he had fucked me a dozen of times in the few days we had spent together after prison. He knew all of my (dirty) secrets. And yet, he had been the one to propose that I come live with him.
What was there to be so nervous about? Moving-in with him was, in many ways, a dream come true.
I knocked at the door. It was technically my place, but you know, it was the first time I was coming there.
No response.
I had texted Austin about forty minutes prior that I had landed and he had replied: "cannot wait!"
I knocked again.
Still no response.
That did not help calming my nerves.
Finally, I heard some movements in the apartment. My heart was racing in my chest.
All nervousness disappeared from the moment when Austin opened the door. One look in his blue eyes, and I felt safe. I know this is cheesy as fuck, but it is the truth.
The fact that he was all wet and only wearing a tiny grey towel, barely holding around his waist, was helping a lot too.
"Sorry Ty, I did not think you would get here so quick."
"And you wanted to look good for me." I teased him.
"Yeah... Sorry." He said looking down at his bare chest. "I did have a whole outfit planned actually."
"Shut up, you know exactly what you're doing."
He looked honestly confused, as if he did not know the effect his barely naked body would have over me. Come on! After all this time, he must have been aware of how attractive he was! Right?
I was still standing in the door frame. But before I came in, Austin had one more thing to do.
He leaned in to kiss me. Instant electricity.
I had missed him so much.
We had to cut our "honeymoon phase" short because I was staying at my brother's, and he needed to organize things to settle in Los Angeles. Instantly though, it was like we were back where we had left things, meaning, in an intense sex craze.
