The next few days were a challenge for Paul. Life continued on as if nothing had happened. He slept, he ate, he worked, he drank, but beneath it all, his mind was constantly distracted.
At any given moment, he'd find himself lost again in those unexpected encounters. His thoughts would wander back to the feeling of Craig cumming hard, deep inside of him, or the taste of his cock in his mouth.
He was obsessed. The sex he'd had during the last couple of weeks was unlike anything he'd ever experienced. His mind was suddenly open to a world of new possibilities. There was no point denying what had happened. He enjoyed it. Immensely!
At the same time, though, he was very deliberate about how he processed these thoughts. He enjoyed the physicality of it all. The way the particular combination of touches and sensations made him feel was incredible. His body was responding to a set of stimuli.
It didn't mean anything about his sexuality. He had no control over what his body liked. A set of inputs resulted in a particular response. Any man must feel the same way given the same set of inputs. It definitely didn't make him gay!
The continuation of their 'clothing optional' dress code, though, made this a difficult line to hold. The morning after their last encounter, he'd climbed out of bed on a sweltering hot day, reached to grab his clothes and then stopped himself. What did he have to hide now? There was no reason to feel embarrassed by his body. Craig had already seen literally every part of it now.
He stepped naked out of his room only to pass a similarly bare Craig in the narrow hallway. Their brief nod and muttered 'morning' did little to mask the palpable electricity that passed between them as their bodies nearly touched. In 2 steps, he was hard as a redgum trunk and desperate for a place to hide his arousal. This was going to be difficult!
By the middle of the week, Paul was desperate to get a load off. A simple breeze blowing past his groin was enough to have him hard and leaking, and he was pretty sure his efforts to hide his arousal had been unsuccessful.
Neither of them had mentioned what had happened though. The intensity of their last sexual encounter had shocked them both. To talk about it would be to acknowledge that they'd both enjoyed it and that seemed to be a step too far.
Their conversations were stilted and their interactions uncomfortable. They still went through the motions of their usual cohabitation with beers, gaming and banter, but it felt somehow fake.
The result was that Paul felt reluctant to initiate another encounter. He didn't want to seem too keen, and by extension too gay. He watched Craig for some sort of invitation, but it was hard while they were also mostly avoiding eye contact.
Getting into bed on Wednesday night, cock hard and balls aching once again, he finally admitted defeat. Reaching down with his faithful right hand, he started to rub one out, searching his internal spank bank for something other than his cock sliding into Craig's arse.
Startled by the opening door, he froze, turning his head towards Craig's backlit naked figure in the doorway. He watched as Craig walked wordlessly towards his bed, climbing on to the end.
Craig pulled the sheets slowly off him, exposing his naked form. Eyes locked on Paul's, he leaned down and grasped Paul's cock in his right hand, stroking him with a firm grip.
Continuing to lean in, his mouth drew closer to Paul's glistening cock, opening his lips and finally taking him inside.
Paul moaned as Craig's lips slid along his shaft, the blissful friction such a welcome sensation. He absently played with his nipples as he lay back and accepted the unexpected blow job.
Craig cupped his balls with one hand, his other wrapped around the base of Paul's cock, stroking him in time with his oral stimulation.
Paul looked down. The dim light coming through the door was just enough to see Craig's head bobbing up and down in his lap. He rested an encouraging hand on the back of his head.
Craig worked his jaw, sucking hard on the turgid cock as he stroked. Paul could already feel an orgasm approaching as he began to push his hips forward to meet Craig's advancing lips.
His moans grew with intensity, audibly sounding out his pleasure as he was stroked by his mate. Craig's hand massaging his balls seemed to readying them to explode. The familiar flame was lit inside his pelvis, stoked with every thrust into Craig's mouth.
With arms spread wide, he gripped the mattress cover as he began to writhe around. Craig followed wherever he went, relentless in his stimulation.
Paul thrust up into his mouth again and again, finally bringing the orgasm to the surface. With a cry he exploded with a thrusting push deep into Craig's mouth. His balls unloaded for the first time in days, filling Craig's mouth, and overflowing, seeping out between his lips, and dripping into his lap.
Finally the tide receded once again, and his muscles slowly relaxed, one by one. With a slurping suck, Craig slid up and off his cock, swallowing with a satisfied smile and a lick of his lips.
Without a word, he crawled forward towards Paul's post orgasmic form and took his own cock in hand. With one hand stroking a nipple, he jerked himself hard and fast, clearly already near to orgasm.
Paul could barely see more than a silhouette and some movement, but he watched fascinated as Craig brought himself quickly to orgasm.
With a quiet, grunting moan, Craig climaxed, his body jerking with uncoordinated movement. Paul felt the warm liquid slop out across his spent cock and balls, running down his sack and between his legs.
He lay still, revelling in the sensation of his mates cum as Craig squeezed out the last drop. Rising silently, Craig climbed off the bed and left the room, looking back briefly at the door before he walked away.
Slightly dazed, Paul lay there for a second. The slow ooze of cum rolling down beneath his balls served as proof that he hadn't dreamt the encounter, but still he was amazed. Clearly the dynamic of their friendship had shifted permanently now.
Perplexed, but equally pleased, he rolled over and pulled up the sheet, resolving to clean up the mess the following day. He was asleep within minutes.
********************
Paul woke the following morning with a sense of resolve. He needed to repay the favour as soon as he had the opportunity. The quicker he did that, the sooner he'd get another blow job like last night.
He tried to ignore his own physical response to the thought of sucking Craig's dick again. This had nothing to do with attraction, he told himself. It was all about getting what he wanted.
