Daniels address was easy to find but the gates that guarded the drive were shut, I parked right in front of them and was just wondering if I should text Daniel to let him know I was there when they began to open. I made my way along the drive which meandered through a small, winding avenue of trees before opening out into a larger clear area. There was a pick-up truck parked in front of the house and I slid my car alongside it, I didn't know where else to park.
I exited my car and looked up at the house. I whistled between my teeth, the place looked huge, IT work must pay well I thought to myself. The first thing that struck me was how quiet it was, I knew I was only about a hundred yards from the road but I couldn't hear anything apart from some birdsong and the buzzing of bees. I walked to the large front door, quickly found a bell push on the frame and pushed it, I could hear the sound of bells and I remember thinking how grand this all was.
It was only a matter of seconds before I could hear some muffled shouting and then the door sprang open, Daniel stood there with a huge smile on his face. He opened the door wide, extending his arm, inviting me into his house, as I passed him he leaned towards me and groped my arse.
"Welcome to my home." he said.
I was a little bit surprised, I've never had a man grope me so openly before, but then again I've never been to a man's house that I've been intimate with before. I decided not to worry about it.
"Thank you." I replied.
As we walked through the large house Daniel explained that the pick-up belonged to one of his friends who was a builder. He was also there to quote for some building work that Daniel wanted, he was supposed to be there for ten am but had been delayed which was why he was still there when I arrived. Daniel looked apologetic, I told him it was fine and that these things happened with builders. We both laughed. We made our way through the kitchen and out through the rear door into an incredibly large garden. Daniel introduced me as the gardener to his friend James, the builder, James in turn introduced me to his assistant Martin.
I let them plan while I looked around the garden, I'd never seen a garden as big as this. A large fence ran around the entire perimeter, enclosing the garden and encapsulating it into its own private area, as I faced the rear of Daniels house, on my left grew some large, beautiful, rich green coloured Leylandii conifer trees, they had been densely planted, standing around twenty feet high which completely shielded the garden where I stood from the only neighbor that I'd noticed when I drove through the village, they ran the length of the fence which I estimated to be around one hundred and fifty feet, the fence ran along the rear of the garden and then turned back towards the right side of the house, I didn't completely have my bearings but I guessed that where the fence disappeared from my view it would finish somewhere close to where my car was parked.
As I looked about I suddenly realised that Daniel was saying my name.
"I'm sorry, I was just admiring your garden, What did you say?"
Daniel smiled and said that they were talking about the conservatory that James's company would be building, his design spanned the entire rear of the house and would have doors leading from the kitchen and the living room into the conservatory but it would also have doors that led into the garden. Daniel was asking my opinion on a path.
We discussed different materials that could be used, the pros and cons of one type over another, as we talked I realised that Martin wasn't contributing much to the conversation, he was just staring at me as we spoke. I'd seen that look before, it was the same sort of lustful look that men gave me right before I knelt down and took their cocks in my mouth. If circumstances had been different I probably would have knelt down and sucked his cock, he was good looking, but I wasn't sure that would go down well with Daniel and even less so with Martins boss James. I was getting hard thinking about just kneeling down and sucking the three of them. Fuck, what was wrong with me?
I was beginning to daydream about the scenario. Daniel, well, I already knew some things that he liked, I imagined James was similar to Daniel, he seemed the take charge sort and he had his own business.
I imagined Martin would be on his knees next to me. I needed to focus on the conversation and leave thoughts like that for another time, Jesus, James might be straight for all I know, so could Martin for that matter, although the way he looked at me, gave me the impression he wasn't.
I'd been wrong before though, losing a good friend because I interpreted the signals wrong one drunken night. This was why I was so careful to ensure no one knew of my sexual preferences and another reason why I chose men only saunas. At least there you know why men are there.
I'd been half listening to the conversation, I must have been nodding and making sounds of agreement at the right places, I zoned right back in just as they decided on a graveled area surrounding the conservatory.
Daniel and James shook hands, Daniel said he was happy with everything that had been discussed, thanked James and Martin for coming, they walked side by side towards the kitchen door. Martin and I were a few paces behind, he leaned towards me and whispered,
"Be good working with you when we're here."
"I'm not even sure I'm going to be working here yet," I replied "I don't know what work Daniel has for me."
"Judging by the look on his face when we were talking, I would imagine he has a few, shall we say, 'jobs' that he would like you to do."
It didn't take a rocket scientist to work out what Martin was implying; he knew as well as I did that I wasn't just there to talk about gardening but I wasn't sure why he felt the need to say what he had. I resolved to ask Daniel about it once they'd gone. As they got to the door James turned and said goodbye to me, Martin smiled and said the same but he winked at me at the same time. Daniel just said for me to explore the garden and he'd be back in a minute.
I stood just looking around, enjoying the heat of the sunshine on my body. It was a beautiful day, just the odd cloud here and there in an otherwise un-spoilt blue sky.
Beyond the fence at the rear of the garden was a large field, I looked left and right but from where I stood, I couldn't see the edges as they curled away into the distance, directly ahead, approximately a mile from where I stood lay a large expanse of trees.
I was lost admiring the impressive landscape, I didn't realise Daniel was behind me till his arms went around my shoulders and he pulled me back into his strong chest, he kissed the side of my cheek and said.
"Thank fuck they've gone."
I laughed in agreement then turned my head slightly returning the kiss.
"Martin is a bit of a strange one," I said "He said that you would have some 'jobs' for me."
"I have got jobs for you." Daniel replied.
