By the end of the first month, it was obvious that Carlos was stressing out more about his situation with Rosa and the kids. I would ask him how things were going, but he usually ended up getting angry about it, so I quit bringing it up.
That didn't stop him from going out though and drinking. I tried to talk with him about it and got the same response each time.
"I'm a big boy, Ian. I know you care. But you're doing enough by just giving me a peaceful place to stay. Don't worry about me. I'll be fine."
And so, as he requested, I didn't worry about him. At least, I didn't let him know that I worried. And every time he'd go out with his friends, I wondered if Hector, Andres, or Beto would try something with him again. But, as Carlos said, he's a big boy. And there wasn't much I could do but be there for him if he needed me.
And, as it turned out, he did need me. He just didn't know he did.
One night during dinner, I asked Carlos if he was gonna watch the basketball playoff game with me.
"Thanks, mano, but Beto invited me over to his house tonight. We're gonna kick back."
I froze a moment when I heard that. I don't remember Beto ever inviting Carlos over to his place before. They usually went out to a bar or club.
Nonchalantly, I asked, "Really? Are you going to watch the game there?"
Carlos swallowed his food and said, "I don't know. Maybe. He just caught me at work today and said to come over. I think he has a girl he wants to introduce me to."
I didn't say anything and just looked at my food. Carlos knew me so well, he could pick up on my thoughts.
"Don't worry, Ian," he grinned. "I'm not gonna get drunk. In fact, I don't plan on drinking much at all. I've had too much lately, and I need to cut back."
He paused and then laughed, "Anyway, I know 'Daddy Ian' doesn't like me drinking too much. Even though I'm a big boy."
I smiled and said, "I told you, I'm not your Daddy. I just care, mano."
Carlos smiled back and said, "I know, mano. I'm just bullshitting you. And I always appreciate your caring. But as I said, I don't plan on getting drunk tonight."
I nodded and said, "I hope not. And if you do, call me and let me know. I'll come pick you up. I don't want you driving drunk."
Carlos grinned and said, "Okay Dad." He finished eating his dinner and walked past me to put his dishes in the sink.
After cleaning up after dinner, I settled down to watch the game. Carlos left to go over to Beto's and as he left, told me he wouldn't be too late. I finished watching the game and turned off the TV about 11:30, pissed because my team lost. Carlos hadn't come back but I went on to bed. After all, both he and Beto were right. He was a big boy and could make his own decisions.
I was sound asleep, when I heard a sound down the hall. It sounded like the door to Carlos's bedroom. I looked at the clock and it was 2:30 AM. I snorted and thought 'if that's what Carlos calls not being late, he has a lousy sense of time'. I lay in bed listening to make sure he was alright.
For some reason, it was strangely quiet. I thought that odd, because Carlos usually takes a shower before he goes to bed. But I didn't hear him in the bathroom. In fact, I didn't hear any other noise at all.
I got up out of bed and walked down the hall. I could see the light under the door in Carlos's room, but still no noise. I wondered if Carlos had gotten drunk and passed out again.
So, I quietly opened the door. And what I saw gave me the shock of my life.
He was in his room alright. But he wasn't alone.
Carlos was passed out on his bed, wearing only the pair of boxer briefs I'd seen earlier in the evening. His other clothes were strewn about on the floor and Beto was sitting on the bed next to him. One of Beto's hands was rubbing Carlos's chest and the other hand was rubbing his crotch. Carlos's cock was starting to swell as Beto rubbed it and his nipples were hard little points.
As I stood there speechless, Beto leaned down and started sucking on Carlos's nipples. I saw Carlos's cock getting bigger and Beto trying to reach in through the opening of the briefs. After a few moments, his hand was inside, holding Carlos's hardening cock.
All this time, Carlos was totally out of it and unaware that Beto was fondling him. Beto pulled his mouth off one of Carlos's nipples. As he slowly caressed his face, I heard him speak to the passed-out stud.
"Oh yeah, puta. You're gonna be my bitch tonight. MY bitch!"
Beto leaned closer, smiled, and said, "I'm finally gonna fuck your ass, cabron. I've waited a long time to get in that tight culo of yours. And now I'm gonna fuck it good."
I was shocked when I heard Beto say that and I finally found my voice.
"What the FUCK do you think you're doing?"
Beto's hands flew off Carlos and he jumped up.
"IAN! Shit! You scared the fuck outta me!"
He stood there looking at me and I could tell he was drunk. His face was red, and you could smell the alcohol on him.
"Beto, what the hell are you doing? Why are you fucking around with Carlos?"
I looked down at the unconscious muscle boy on the bed.
"What happened to him?"
Beto stumbled backwards. He steadied himself and said, "Nothing, Ian. We were . . . just drinking . . . at my house. Carlos had . . . had . . . too much tequila and I . . . I brought him home."
Angrily, I looked back at Beto.
"Oh, you just brought him home, huh? And you just happened to 'help' him out of his clothes? Did you think you could just fuck him and no one would know?"
"I wasn't trying to . . . fuck him. I was just . . . uhhhh . . . just uhhhh . . ."
"Yeah, I could tell what you were just 'trying' to do."
I looked back at Carlos. His cock was still hard, and I could see it through the opening where Beto had reached in.
As my glance slowly moved up Carlos's muscled body to his chest, I licked my lips. Beto must have noticed.
"So, Ian . . . you uh . . . you know . . . interested?"
I looked back at Beto quickly. He had a leering grin on his face as he looked at me.
"What the fuck you mean, am I interested? In what?"
"You know." He paused. "Carlos."
