"Come on, guys. One more game!" I said, urging my friends to play one more round of the latest Call of Duty game.
Charlie, my best friend, answered, "Alright, one more. I still need to get 5 more headshots with this shotgun to unlock the skin."
"Don't worry you'll get it. Let's hope we get shipment," I assured him.
"What do you need, Marcos?" Elias, my other friend, said over the Xbox party chat.
"Uh, a few more slide kills and I'll be done."
"Cool. Let 's go muchachos!" Elias said.
It was 11:15 at night on a Friday night. I had no work the next day so I could stay up. I'm a security guard at a DMV in East Los Angeles. Which can be chill but other days it can be the worst time. People are rude and the homeless have become such a problem in Los Angeles. I couldn't count how many times I had to try to get a homeless man out of the restrooms.
There were a few good things about working at the DMV, I got out of work at 5pm. There were definitely some good looking dudes who would stroll in. And Hector worked at my job. He is a DMV teller. The man was straight but he looked fine as fuck. Tall, thin with brown skin. His hair was cut short and he always flirted with me. I knew in another life we were lovers. Or at least that was the wish.
The security guard job was mostly to pay for my time in college. Although I had received some grants, it didn't pay for food or gas. And with gas prices being so high I needed the job. Driving to school was a nightmare due to all the traffic on the freeways.
My love life was pretty empty. I hadn't dated a guy since high school. I had come out to my parents at 16 with loving support. Even at work, I had support, everyone accepted me for who I was. One of the DMV Examiners, Pilar, had tried hooking me up with her son. She has suspicions that he was gay. But it turned out he wasn't. Her son was a good looking man, but gay was he not. That was one of the most awkward days of my life.
I had reassured myself many times that I didn't need a relationship in college. It would just honestly distract me from my studies. Instead, I just hooked up with guys. Either I hooked up with guys on Campus or at the local bars.
"Fuck yeah!" Charlie yelled into the mike. It made my ears ring a bit, "I am finally done with this fucking gun! All shotguns are gold!"
I clapped, "Congratulations!"
"Yeah, good one, bro," Elias added. He then let out a long yawn, "Alright, guys. I'm out. I have to get up early for the trip tomorrow."
I had forgotten that Elias was leaving for Montana for a week, "Alright, man. Don't forget my shot glass."
"Of course. Good night, gentlemen," then I saw the notification on my Xbox telling me he had left the party.
"What about you, Charlie?" I said.
A pause, then "Uh, I think I should go to sleep as well. Lorena doesn't like me staying up late," Lorena being his girlfriend since high school.
I made a whipping sound, teasing him.
"Laugh it up. You'll find yourself a man one day that'll do the same."
I grinned, "I doubt that."
"Good night, Marcos."
"Good night, Charlie."
Charlie left the party leaving me by my lonesome.
I toyed around with the idea of playing a few more matches but I ultimately decided not to. Instead, I turned off the Xbox and went to my bed. Immediately, I looked up porn on my phone. It was almost a daily ritual to jerk off before bed.
After a few minutes of looking for a good video, I pulled out my cock from my underwear and began to jerk off.
Unfortunately, I didn't get to finish as I received a phone call. It was from my boss, Jesus.
I picked it up, being grateful it wasn't a facetime call, "Hey, Jesus. What's up?"
"Sorry to call you on such short notice and late at night, but one of the guards at the research plant called off. I was wondering if you wanted the overtime?"
I had never been to the research plant. But I had heard stories from there. Most of them said how boring it was. I honestly wanted to tell him no because I wanted to finish, but at the same time I needed the cash. My car was in need of new tires and this would certainly pay for them.
I sighed, "Alright, what time do you need me there?"
"Midnight. I know that's really short notice but don't worry you'll get your 8 hours even if you arrive after midnight."
"Alright, I'll text you when I get there."
"Thank you, Marcos. I can always count on you. I owe you."
"Any time, Jesus."
I hung up and sat up on the bed. Jesus was a great supervisor. It was part of the reason why I said yes.
I got up off the bed and looked for my uniform pants. I was already in my underwear, since it was my preferred clothing when I was in my room.
With the rest of my uniform on, I grabbed my car keys and headed out.
The drive wasn't too long since it was night time. Thankfully most people were either at their destination or at home. The city of Los Angeles always looked gorgeous at night.
It was a little past midnight when I arrived at the research plant. It was a large building with about 7 floors. It was on a hill. I had parked behind the guard station that I was supposed to check in at. The guard station was actually a guard tower. It was pretty trippy to be honest. I didn't realize the type of security this place had.
I went up the stairs to the guard booth and knocked on the steel door. A few moments later, I heard the door unlock and then open. There stood the other security guard. A very good looking security guard to be exact. He was tall and thin, and the security uniform fit him loosely. His hair was buzzcut and he had facial hair on his chin. His skin was caramel. Maybe tonight wasn't going to be so bad.
"Hey, you must be Marcos?" he said in his deep voice, "Come on in," he stepped aside to let me through.
"Hey what's up," I said walking in.
The guard post was quite roomy. To my right was a console with a bunch of monitors on them. They seemed to look at the outside of the building. Behind the console was a window that ran along the wall. To my left were cabinets with a sink. A small fridge at the end.
The man closed the door and locked it then put his hand out, "My name is Angel."
"Yeah, you are," I said in my head.
