Aidan Simmons and Logan Temple were best friends, college roommates and lovers who had spent the better part of two years almost inseparable, and the summer between their sophomore and junior years in college turned out to be one of never-ending surprises.
Some of those surprises were good. Some of them not so good. Yet, each one was unexpected in its own way and came to define not only that summer for them but had long-lasting consequences that shaped the years to come.
The boys were two twenty-year-olds who had much in common and were trying as best they could to find out who they were, what they wanted and where they wanted to go in life. On a certain level, they each took it for granted that they would always be together. They had been through quite a lot in the little bit of time they had known each other, and that had not only strengthened the bond between them, it also deepened their love for one another.
However, like most young men -- and most young adults -- some of their decisions were rash and impulsive, given to hormones and sexual urges that seem to always plague the young and naΓ―ve.
The boys were learning. They were growing. They were searching. But, they were doing that -- and going through those things -- together.
These two boys did not benefit from a wisdom that usually comes with age and experience. Their emotions and temperaments were raw -- unfiltered -- passionate -- immediate.
Aidan and Logan loved each other -- at least as much as anyone at the age of 20 can love anybody else. Despite their feelings, they still wanted, and needed, to experience things with other people. It was a vital component to their broader education in life.
What was not a surprise was to find Logan and Aidan entwined together in bed rimming each other's asshole while yanking on their stiff cocks.
It was the morning of their first day of summer vacation, and as they waited for Aidan's mother to arrive they decided it was the perfect opportunity to engage in some sexual activity.
Aidan's tongue slithered over and licked Logan's smooth little asshole while his roommate did the same to him, both boys moaning with pleasure as their hands tugged and pulled at their dicks.
Almost from the moment these two boys had met they had enjoyed each other -- first, just the pleasure of looking at their naked bodies and then the joy of experimentation as they discovered new and different ways of pleasing one another.
Logan moved around and quickly swallowed all of Aidan's meat, lowering his mouth all the way down to graze his nose and lips over Aidan's course, black pubic hair as his friend's penis pulsed inside his mouth. Back and forth Logan sucked on his roommate's hard cock while gently massaging Aidan's balls.
Grunting softly, Aidan repositioned himself in order to better tug and suck on Logan's stick. Aidan absolutely loved the feel of Logan's mouth on him and his heart beat rapidly as his body prepared for climax.
After several minutes, Aidan removed Logan's dick from his mouth as he screamed out in pleasure, "Oh fuck! Yeah -- here it comes." Pumping his dick back and forth inside Logan's mouth, it erupted in several spasms of hot cum as he moaned out loud and Logan swallowed eagerly.
When his seed was spent, Aidan returned his attention to Logan's stiff prick and began licking its shaft. Just as he placed his mouth on his friend's dick, Logan's cock spewed forth its own warm jizz that Aidan readily swallowed while his friend panted beside him.
When they had finished, the boys wrapped their arms around each other and lay together naked as they kissed.
Aidan ran his hands through Logan's slightly curled dirty blond hair as he pulled his friend tighter against him, smelling his naturally tropical scent. "I love Logan," he whispered while nibbling on his friend's ear.
"I love you too Aidan," his friend responded, moving his mouth down to kiss Aidan's neck, then his chest while rubbing a hand over his nude frame.
Finally finished, dressed and sitting on the bed the boys smiled at one another.
"I can't wait to spend the whole summer with you. It's gonna be wicked fun," Aidan announced in his nasal New England accent. All Logan could do was smile and agree.
Aidan's mother, Laura, came to retrieve the boys who were, for the second time, spending the summer together. Logan had flat-out refused to return to his home outside San Francisco after having a terrible argument with his father in the wake of his mother's unfortunate, although not surprising, death over Christmas break.
They would not return to this college campus again until the fall of their senior year, fifteen months in the future. When they returned, both would be very different people from who they were at that moment.
The very next day found Aidan and Logan driving around Framingham, Massachusetts looking for gainful summer employment when the first surprise of the summer occurred.
Logan received an unexpected text from his dad: "I'm told you're not coming home. Under the circumstances that's best. I have no desire to see you. However, you should know that I transferred money from your mother's insurance policy into your savings account. It's what she would have wanted."
Logan had previously texted his two older brothers just to let them know that he would not be coming home for summer break and, instead, would be spending it in Massachusetts with his best friend Aidan. And after his mother's death four months earlier, Logan had boxed up anything he considered valuable from his home and shipped it to Aidan's address. There was nothing back there for him now but painful memories -- memories he would rather forget altogether.
He hadn't expected to hear from his dad at all, but after the text Logan tapped the Bank of America icon on his cell phone and was rendered speechless. His savings account showed he had in excess of $250,000. The last time he had checked, the day before they left college, his savings had dwindled to $43.72.
"Holy. Fuck!" Logan exclaimed, sitting in the passenger seat of Laura's car as Aidan meandered around town searching strip mall windows for summer help advertisements.
