A construction worker's life drastically changes when a video in which he appears shirtless goes viral. Out of nowhere, the hunky 46 years-old becomes a sensation in the gay community! And when he realizes how much money he can make selling pictures and videos of himself online... Bruce decides to become Silver Fox!
SILVER FOX
Chapter 4: The Sex Factor
The heatwave was still going strong and work was not getting any easier.
I believe that part of my frustration was coming from the fact that I was now realizing how much money I could make sending silly sexy videos online, compared to what I was making exhausting myself as a construction worker.
Nick was more unsufferable than ever now that I had become somewhat famous and our obnoxious boss, Mike Porter, was seemingly also getting jealous.
He had learned about my (sexy) activities online and for some unknown reason, he was bitter about my unexpected fame.
Those guys had been growing up with social media and they had been dreaming of becoming an "influencer", - whatever that word meant -, since they were teenagers.
Unfortunately for the young bucks, it was the 46 years-old Silver Fox who had taken the spotlights away from them.
On Monday morning, I was dreading spending yet another full week with Nick on a new worksite.
We had been commissioned to renovate a porch and redo the floor tiles of an entrance corridor of a suburban house.
For once, Nick was already there when I arrived.
He did not look as smug as usual.
"What happened to you? You fell off from your bed this morning?"
"Very funny, Bruce... Mike's dad called me yesterday. He scolded me like I was a freaking kid. Some bullshit that is. Do you have something to do with that?"
"The old Porter? No. I haven't talked with him since the day I left work early because of the heatwave."
Nick shrugged his shoulders.
"Well, looks like, he wants to oversee what Mike is doing with the company now... He's not really back but he's no longer goner either."
I did not say anything but that was good news for me.
The company was running much better, and my days were much less annoying, when Mike's dad was the one in charge.
Also, our current boss deserved a good humble pie served from his father.
I was glad.
The week was definitely starting on a brighter note since, as it turned out, the house we were working on was owned by a young gay couple, - they were rare where I lived in the middle of Kansas -, and they happened to know about me already.
Mitchell, a 28 years-old HR manager, was rather hysterical when he realized that I was the one appointed to do his house renovation.
"Jesus Christ! Only yesterday, I was joking with Louis that it would be so much fun to have someone looking like you doing our construction work... But it is actually you! Silver Fox! Unbelievable!"
"Well, I go by Bruce during office hours." I greeted him with a faint smile.
"You're really working in construction then, in our city?!"
I had met a couple of quote-on-quote "fans" of my videos in real life but those interactions remained very exceptional.
I was probably as surprised as he was, and Nick right beside me, looked gutted. I could have signed an autograph just to piss him off.
Definitely not a great day for my young coworker!
I put my hand on Mitchell's shoulder, being overly friendly.
"Of course, what did you think, that I was an actor or something? I'm just filming my daily life."
"Sincerely, yes! I did think you were a performer. I mean, I had no idea construction workers could look that nice in real life."
He took a good look at both Nick and I.
"For the record, I was the one shooting that first video which went viral." Nick added.
The little brat could not help himself.
"Amazing job with that one!" Mitchell replied enthusiastically, shaking Nick's hand. "And great post, yesterday!" He told directly at me.
I could have blushed.
The day before, I had posted one of my most daring videos yet.
In three weeks of playing the social media and thirst traps' game, I had never showed that much skin.
Right before going to bed, I had recorded myself wearing the tiniest and tightest white boxer briefs, - a gift from one of my foot fetishists -, as I was doing the dishes.
My cock was bouncing in the practically see-through underwear while I was washing cutlery.
For now, the video had survived the community's guidelines but Logan had warned me that it might be taken down for being too salacious.
Another reason to open a FansVips account.
"Thanks, man. I'm just having fun with it; I'm not taking this too seriously."
"People like the authenticity!"
Mitchell was eating me up with his gaze.
I let him.
"I'll try to keep it real then."
"You do you, Silver Fox! And I follow you as well." Mitchell specified to Nick who was fading into the background.
That woke him up instantly.
"Really? Thanks! I appreciate the support and all my fans."
Being acknowledged and appreciated seemed to put Nick in a much better mood.
He awkwardly moved his arm behind his head to be in a position where he was casually flexing his pumped biceps.
What an idiot, I thought.
Now, this was all fun and games, but we did have some actual work to get to.
"Should we get started with the task at hand?" I suggested.
"Of course, sorry... Come on in, guys. I didn't want to make you uncomfortable bringing up the videos. I was just very surprised, that's all."
"Don't sweat it. We both appreciate our followers, but let's get down to the actual work."
I frankly smiled at Mitchell and after that unexpected introduction, we did get to visit the corridor we were supposed to work on.
I should mention that a large painting of a bare ass (a male one) in black and white was dominating much of the dΓ©cor.
I suppose this was setting up the tone...
Maybe it was my imagination, but I felt like Mitchell was hanging around much more than our usual clients who normally preferred to do their own things once we were in their homes.
He kept on checking on us to propose a cold drink, or to ask if we did not need anything.
For many tasks, we had to be bending over the floor and I bet that Mitchell was very much enjoying the view.
I could not blame him.
Even I, could recognize that Nick's peachy bubble ass looked smooth in that suggestive position.
Overall, the day went rather uneventfully and, in the end, it had been one of my best work-shift in months.
