Dusty looked around the empty room. The room was a standard look for the usual 2080's office. He didn't know the exact details but at some point Steelix (named based on a game popular in the early 2000s called Pokémon) was the alloy used by everyone. With its signature greyish silver hue, the room looked incredibly lonely except for some furniture.
A glass top table was surrounded by Steelix chairs with bright blue cushions at one end of the room where Dusty sat. At the other was a baby blue couch that was surprisingly soft considering that it was made of recycled plastic materials. It was THE couch.
Dusty stared at the couch relishing the memories associated with it. The long work hours where his lover, Colt, would be on the couch doing research for his virtual musical while Dusty would finish up his paperwork. Using the XGlasses, Colt would peruse through information, swiping at things only he could see in his field of vision. He missed how his lover would crack up at an idea and he'd ask Colt what it was about. Then Colt would begin to explain in all his glorious modern-theater-nerd fashion how he would incorporate virtual reality into the story, usually something to do with audience interaction.
Dusty wished he could come up to his lover after a day's long work and sit next to him on the couch. Colt would shut off his XGlasses with a hand motion and Dusty would do the same with his XContacts. They'd stare into each other's eyes before the inevitable passionate kiss. Dusty would usually get pinned down when this happened as Colt preferred to top. Some days, Colt would experiment as a bottom since Dusty was someone who liked to switch. One of the two would suddenly say the "shut door" voice command having forgotten to do so in haste for making out. The door would hum as it closed in a room where love was being made.
Whatever the case, this usually once-a-week office love making was the cherry on top in a five year long passionate relationship. That day, Dusty wanted more of that youthful spice, but to no avail for the past month or so.
Colt had been travelling Greece to research about Greek mythology in a long excursion to research for his new musical. Dusty loved his passion for his job, but wished he could meet his boyfriend at this moment. Maybe their daily holographic meeting would do for a while, but it has been months. All Dusty wanted was to caress his boyfriend's muscular chest. Instead, all he could do was stare at the package his boyfriend had left for him waiting for today's holographic meeting.
A ping sound chimed in Dusty's wireless earbuds.
'Finally,' thought Dusty.
Dusty made a hand motion in the air signaling for his XContacts to turn on. From the field of view through his glasses, a notification popped up in the upper right.
'Colt Henson is calling,' the notification read.
Giddy as a puppy made to fetch something, Dusty made a swiping motion perhaps a bit too aggressively at the notification. After a few seconds of buffering, blue sparks began to appear on the couch area eventually forming into a handsome young man.
Colt's hologram had come to view. He stood in front of the blue couch. Most likely, he was just lying down somewhere in his hotel room wearing the VirtGear over his head.
While the VirtGear could create a hologram based on a person's body, the same could not be said of their clothes. As a result, you could choose from a set of clothes bought virtually.
Today, Colt decided to equip what one could only call a sexy librarian outfit. He wore his circular glasses and an unbuttoned dark beige coat with a grey V neck shirt that seemed to hug his muscled physique. His shirt was tucked in his jeans. The hologram captured Colt's body so well to the point where the bulge of his giant cock was visible. Or perhaps he fiddled with the customization to please Dusty?
"Hello, babe," Colt said in his clear tenor voice that had been used to woo ladies and men in the virtual theater before he became the creator of such shows. Dusty waved at him.
"Hey, my love," Dusty said with his sexy bass voice and a slight smirk which earned him a laugh from his boyfriend.
Colt then sat on the couch making use of a recent technology that allowed live holograms to interact with objects. It did look odd to Dusty that his boyfriend sat on the couch with his thigh seeming to sink in it probably due to a bug.
"Did you get my package?" Colt asked.
"Yes," Dusty replied.
"Did you open it?"
"Not yet. You said you wanted to see my reaction, didn't you?"
Colt smiled. "Well... You may open it now."
Dusty frantically opened the stylish square wooden box. He was very curious to know what was inside. When he saw it, his eyes lit up like a child getting his favorite toy for Christmas.
Inside was a helmet-like contraption similar to the VirtGear helmet, but with significantly less wires. Instead, the gadget came with wireless metal contraptions that looked like pads which was used to make the "feeling experience" more real. It even came in Dusty's favorite color (if you haven't figured out by now) blue.
"Woah," he said, still staring at the machine in awe.
"Anna wanted me to surprise you." said Colt. "I snapped a photo of your reaction."
Indeed, Colt had in hand the camera that appeared from selecting the virtual camera app.
"Sending..." he teases Dusty.
"Don't you dare!" Dusty says more loudly than he'd intended, but it was hopeless since he couldn't really interact without stealing his boyfriend's XGlasses in real life wherever he was.
"I'm just kidding," Colt reassures. "Still, you looked really cute in the picture."
"I just don't want to turn into a meme again."
Colt nodded. "I know. A lot of your high school friends are jerks."
"They were."
"Anyway," said Colt. "You look steaming hot in that outfit today."
Dusty wore a pastel blue (once again, he loves the color blue) suit with matching pants of the same color. He wore a white shirt underneath. With a perfectly fitting and pastel outfit plus a cute little bow tie, he looked simultaneously like a professional and someone who would fit in a candy land. And Colt wanted a taste of that candy.
Dusty snorted. "Look who's talking."
"Wanna do something sexy?" Colt said with an emphasis sexy.
"Did you forget you're a HOLOGRAM?" Dusty asked.
