Sean rolled up the blind and the window. The radiator was on again. It was clanging too. He didn't like the radiator. He wished the Church would spring for central heating but that would never happen. Thanks to the radiator all of St. Patrick's Church was always nuclear hot OR nuclear cold. Sean knew he'd have to shut the window again soon. Still, he supposed he should be grateful, that he had heat at all. Sean quickly crossed himself in thanks. He was a Catholic priest after all!
He peered out the window and looked across the street. Outside, shovelling snow was Leon. Fr. Leon was a priest at the French Catholic Church across the street. Their jobs were basically the same. At St. Patrick's Church, Sean said Mass in English Latin; at St. Bernadtte's Church, Fr. Leon said Mass in French Latin.
Heavy snow was falling in Northern Quebec and Leon was shovelling the entire parking lot, school parking lot, stairs and front of St. Bernadette's Church.
Sean knew he shouldn't be looking at Leon. It was just so tempting to think of him. Sean had been looking at Leon for a while now. Leon was a young priest who was barely twenty-seven. Not that Fr. Sean was ancient or anything. Fr. Sean was only thirty-sex.
Since Fr. Leon had moved in next door, Fr. Sean had found himself looking. He wasn't a pervert or anything. They were tiny glimpses out of the corner of his eye. Sean found himself lifting the blinds in the middle of the night to see...well to see if he could glimpse a naked Leon through the window.
Fr. Sean tried to tell himself, that he was making sure that Fr. Leon was acclimating properly. Sean didn't want Leon to run into any difficulties. Still, if he were totally honest, there was no hiding it from himself Sean wanted to rip Leon's clothes off. he wanted to explore Leon''s naked body. He wanted to pepper kisses all over Leon's...especially in forbidden places.
Leon was muscular...with golden hair like a king of old. Sean had these thoughts before and he knew they were wrong. Just looking at Leon was enough to make his cock hard. He couldn't think of Leon, he couldn't think of being entwined with Leon. He was a Catholic priest for Christ's Sake! Laying with a woman was wrong, so laying with a man was doubly wrong...perhaps more than doubly wrong. Probably, more than doubly wrong. He could be sent to prison or a mental institution for his thoughts.
Still, Cian couldn't help but think of Leon on cold winter nights, lying alone in bed. There was no one else around, only the Leon of his dreams. In those sweet forbidden delightful dreams, Leon was so yielding, eager, and supplicating. Made to be...well Sean would save those thoughts for tonight.
This morning Fr. Sean was grateful for priestly vestments and the fact the Church's pews were far away from the sanctuary. Fr. Sean was sure that his cock's turgidness from thoughts of Fr. Leon could be viewed at the back of the church. He couldn't think of easement now though.
Now it was time to get Mass started. It was 6:00 am Mass but he knew Mrs. O'Leary would be coming. She came every morning come Hell or high water. No matter how deep the wind-driven February Northern Quebec snowstorms were.
Fr. Sean had to start early too. If Sean started at 6 am by Mrs. O'Leary's standards he was already late. Sean finished his coffee and put the cup in the sink. Then he put on his vestments and went to say Mass. Sure enough, Mrs. O'Leary was already there, with her brood of eight children. The three, four and five-year-olds were curled up on the pew sleeping. Sean could hear the snores. One newborn twin was in a portable seat and the other at her breast... covered by a shawl naturally. A person couldn't go to church naked!
Mrs. O'Leary's seven, eight and nine-year-olds were wide-awake. Fr. Sean knew they wanted to sleep. They were too terrified of their mother, her lectures about morality and smacks upside the head to fall asleep at Mass. Fr. Sean was the priest, yes, but it was Mrs. O'Leary who held St. Patrick's parish together. She had stern looks and a domineering attitude. She wasn't afraid of anyone or anything.
Tired, Fr. Sean performed a quick Mass. Mrs. O'Leary disapproved, Sean knew from her angry glare and arched eyebrow He knew he was on her shit list. He went back and changed out of his vestments. Then he closed the window. The room had turned nuclear cold. The snow was falling and Fr. Sean was astonished to see Fr. Leon outside shovelling. It had almost been an hour. Surely, he would have taken a coffee break?
No time like the present to help. He could brave bad weather for Leon. Sean made some coffee and filled a thermos. He put on a coat and headed over to St. Benedette's Church.
"Hey, I'm Fr. Sean I'm the priest across the street at St. Patrick's. You've been out here for a while. Do you need help?" he questioned.
"I know who you are. I'm Leon," said Leon. "I have to shovel the snow. Get ahead of it you know," said Leon. He barely paused and his eyes didn't meet Sean's.
"Oh...I should probably shovel the snow too..." Truth be told Sean was surprised that Mrs. O'Leary hadn't "drafted" one of her older children to shovel the snow. Mrs. O'Leary's children were "drafted" for lots of things. Her grandchildren and great-grandchildren would be too. Mrs. O'Leary was probably punishing Fr. Sean for the short-form mass.
"Come inside the rectory with me Leon. For Heaven's Sake, you're nearly frozen to the bone, you've been out here for over an hour. It's barely 7 am. The sun is barely up here in Northern Quebec. I brought you some hot coffee and cinnamon buns. Mrs. Harrison's eight kids have gone off to college now. She was used to baking for them all...she gives me all the baked goods now. Forces them on me really---Mrs. Harrison is the best baker I know. I think we should go into the rectory, in fact, I insist on it. Hot coffee and cinnamon buns!" said Sean. He wanted to get to know Leon. Sean was determined that Leon would have coffee with him.
Leon paused in his shovelling. He had been up for a while now. He was cold to the bone, hungry and tired. Despite, Fr. Sean's attempts to hide it, Leon knew Sean had been eye-fucking him. At first, Leon had been unsure and a little nervous. What did Fr. Sean's looks of desire mean? Eventually, Leon had grown to like them.
