This story is true, and I was and am very fond of nearly all the people involved. I think it is a story worth telling and I had fun putting pen to paper, finally, and telling one small chapter of a very funny youth. All participants were at least 18 at the time of the events described, and all are at least 38 now! All the names, for the sake of discretion, have been changed at least slightly, and a very few of the other place names, etc. and tell tale details have been changed very slightly for the same reason. ANY of our friends who were involved in this or any of our other kooky escapades will recognise themselves and each other in these stories. I hope you all are Lit readers, and I hope you remember them with the same comically wicked grin that I'm wearing as I write them. Wasn't that a funny time! Please feel free to e-mail me with comments, but if I get several zillion responses from other Lit members, please forgive me for not getting back to all in a timely manner... Here we go...........................
It was a big day and we all knew it. There were seven of us... SEVEN! Laughing, goofing, full of ourselves in a fun way, full of beans, full of the moment, full of the possibilities. We had all been naked with each other in various combinations over the years, but never this many together at once.
No one was crass enough to mention the inevitable, though Donny and I had worked out the arrangements as carefully as a Washington caterer, and we'd mentioned it plenty leading up to today!
All of us had sisters in the Devon Horse Show. Older sisters, younger sisters, neighbors, cousins. Our moms were all committee members of one kind or another, some casual, some VERY dedicated. All the guys could ride. Some well, some very well, some not so well. Some of us had ridden at Devon in the past.
Now, here we all were, at Donny's pool, Donny's heated goddam pool (of course!), at the beginning of June, school just ending, and a way of life coming to an end, as well. We were all wrapping up our senior year in high school. Summer was here, and the exciting yet frightening prospects of college were just over the next hill. We had all been accepted to good schools. How would it be? This good? This free? Better? Worse?
The seven boys-suddenly-men were from three different high schools. Donny and I were in school close by, as was our good friend Marc. Bennet (my fave) and Clark (the pest!) were from the neighboring school district, Great Valley. The other two, who we'll call Sam and Eric just for fun, went to a private school in Westtown, Pa. These guys were just a part of a loosely knit, much larger group of friends, neighbors, cousins, and acquaintances of both sexes that Donny and I had entertained in his barn and my barn, at the pool and in the woods, at camp and in the locker room over the years.
We had arranged with everyone's folks for us to have a little get together at the pool while they all had their big Saturday finale at The Horse Show. We had music playing and all of us were drinking screwdrivers from tall, colorful plastic ice tea glasses. We used to drink beer at poolside, but Donny's dad came home one time and actually beat Donny in front of a few of us (the ultimate in uncool), bitching about liability, etc. What an asshole he was on that and on most other occasions. Later, Donny would inherit a little too much of that for his own good.
The air at poolside was absolutely electric as we swam and laughed and threw each other in and wrestled and generally behaved like the guys we were, all the while knowing that very soon, VERY soon, we would all be putting on some sort of show for each other in the barn, the likes of which we'd never seen on this scale. No one had to say it... we all KNEW it. We all knew each other, and had known each other, just in pairs and triplets, previously.
I should pause here and make sure I've created an accurate picture of the participants... We were straight kids. We liked girls, we talked about girls, we dated girls, most of us had a girlfriend. We jerked off to straight porn. We played rough and tumble sports (OK, a couple of us were marching band, not jocks). We treated sucking like a sport. a sport with a little edge of danger, but a sport nonetheless. We would get together for a mad suck fest just like we would get together for a pick up hockey game or an afternoon of fishing.
