Alex was desperate to get off the farm, but it was the only thing he knew, the only trade he had. How he longed to escape to the city, but what would he do there, he wondered.
At twenty three he still looked eighteen with his clear blue eyes and shiny blond hair and freckled nose. He had a slender twenty eight inch waist but surprisingly broad shoulders, with muscles in all the right places. He had a big, goofy grin that people said was cute; but damn it, never the right kind of people.
After he had graduated high school he had started working on his father's farm. As time went by all his friends started getting married so Alex got engaged to a girl he had known all his life. But deep down inside he knew he couldn't go through with it. She wasn't what he wanted; girls were not what he wanted thought he couldn't admit it at the time. Eventually she grew bitter with resentment and when some hot shot guy came around she got herself pregnant by him and ended up moving on with him. And Alex was a little jealous, not of the other guy, but of her. He wished it had been him getting speared by that hot, dangerous dude and getting a dose of fresh cream up his insides.
Their farm was really isolated with the nearest neighbour being five miles away. Red, as everyone called Jack, their next door neighbour on account of his strawberry blonde hair was in his mid fifties and a great big ox of a man. Red's wife had died two years ago and Alex used to have this silly daydream about living with Red, and being his lover and wife and fancy boy all rolled into one. He was the only other male, apart from his father, that Alex saw from one week to the next so it was understandable that he projected his fantasies onto Red. But when he thought about the age difference between them it snapped Alex back into focus and he started thinking up new plans for escaping to the city.
And then one day Alex decided he was just going to take his chances and head off to the city. He told his Mom and Dad and they were none too happy about it but said they understood. That afternoon, by chance, Red came round to their house. He'd just bought a new computer and wanted Alex to help him set it up.
'Sure, I'll come over tomorrow.' Alex told Red.
'Why don't you grab your toothbrush and go on over right now.' Alex's dad suggested.
Alex though it was a good idea and went to pack his overnight bag. Alex's dad took Red aside and asked him if he could try and talk Alex into changing his mind. He suggested Red string out the computer thing to keep Alex there a few days. His dad hoped that being in the company of someone other than his parents would get Alex out of the rut he was in and get all this nonsense about the city out of his head.
When they got over to Red's place he suggested they crack open a couple of beers and forget about the computer until the morning. Being alone with Red brought Alex's fantasises flooding back to him and he felt strangely elated. He could not remember when last he had been so excited by the prospect of something happening to him, anything to change his boring little life.
The two men sat out on Red's porch and drank their beer in silence. Alex stole a quick glance at the beefy stud and felt a thrill shoot down his body that caused a warm glow in his crotch. He could see curly brown hair covering the great expanse of Red's chest, while his tree trunk legs were covered in a reddish brown fuzz. His khaki shorts were snug and framed his ample ass. It was a hot day and there was a dark sweat stain in the crack of Red's beautiful shapely ass. Alex was soon so lost in the thought of pressing his face into Red's crack and inhaling his rich, masculine scent that the first he knew he had a hardon was when Red suddenly said,
'Who is the girl?'
'Sor...sorry?' Alex stammered.
'You've got one hell of a hard on there,' Red said 'I thought you must be thinking about some special girl.'
Alex blushed and squirmed trying to cover his rod as it tented his loose fitting shorts.
'No need to be embarrassed.' Red said. 'It's only natural.'
'You wouldn't think it were natural if you knew what I was thinking about.' Alex said, suddenly needing to talk about these strange feeling he had. What did it matter, he would be leaving soon. And if Red was too disgusted, well he could just go back home and pack his things and leave tonight.
'Sex is sex, no matter where you get it.' Red said.
'What if it's a guy?' Alex asked.
'Makes no difference. You're not the only one in the world.'
'Feels like that to me sometimes.' Alex said, somewhat surprised at Red's laid back attitude.
'Don't beat yourself up about it.' Red told him. 'Go grab us some more beers.'
Alex felt giddy and light headed as he headed back into the house. Red didn't cared that he was gay. Wow, what a guy. The world hadn't caved in on him. Alex went into the bathroom to take a leak. And while he was there he saw Red's laundry basket. And somehow he just couldn't help himself. There on the top of the pile of dirty clothes was a pair of Red's underpants. They were black and when Alex picked them up he noticed a white stain on the inside of the pouch. His heart beat in his throat as he licked the dried precum off the fabric. He was tasting a man at last. He pressed the fabric to his nose and inhaled. The scent of a man's hairy ass and balls overpowered him and his cock was soon rock hard. Without thinking he whipped out his cock and wrapped Red's underpants around it and started jacking off.
'Is that good?' the voice startled him and he just about jumped out his skin.
'Red! Red...I'm so, so, so sorry...'please...' he blubbered.
Red wrapped him up in a bear hug, the intensity of which felt frightening, like he was going to beat him into a pulp. Alex started crying real tears, afraid for his safety.
'It's o.k, sssh...it's o.k.' Red said soothingly.
Red kept stroking Alex and talking to him in a soothing voice, telling him to calm down, that he didn't mind.
'You...you don't mind?' Alex was flabbergasted.
'Mind? I'm flattered.' Red replied. 'At my age you don't think you're capable of turning anyone on. But seeing the way you sniffed my undies and got so hard was just the most amazing thing in the world.
'You saw that?' Alex was mortified.
'Yeah, sorry about that.' Red replied. 'I was peeping through the keyhole.'
