From Chapter 9:
"Ranj, go back inside. You're embarrassing yourself."
"Not until you tell me you'll come back in too!"
"Okay. Give me a minute." I said. He hesitated a moment. "Go inside! I'll be right back!" He stood his ground. "I promise!"
He ran back in to his place. I pulled my suitcase behind me until I was out of eye -- or ear shot, around a corner. I started to call home, when what happened hit home all the way. I sat down and cried.
I sat there at least five minutes, trying to get myself together. "Sir -- are you okay? May I be of assistance?"
I looked up and there was a uniformed guard or something. He spoke again. "Campus security -- are you okay?" He knelt down to my level. He couldn't have been too much older than I. Looking into my wet eyes, he repeated, "Are you okay, Man?" His eyes were compassionate as he put his hand gently on my shoulder.
Chapter 10:
I looked at the grass. "No. I'm not okay."
He looked up and down the street and also back at the building we were in front of, then he sat down on the ground next to me, and hugged his knees. "Can I help any, man? What's wrong?" He asked.
"I was stupid! That's what's wrong! My dad told me that I shouldn't do this!"
"Do what?" He was being so super nice, I just instinctively trusted him. "Where's your dad?"
"He's in California." I said.
He looked back at my suitcase. "You're recently from there too, huh?"
"Uh huh."
"What did your dad tell you?"
"Not to surprise -- someone -- like I did. I came all the way here by bus to see my boy -- er, my friend -- and -- my friend has someone else that he's entertaining."
"I can see how that would be -- fucked up. Do you want a ride somewhere?"
"No, I - "
"Does your boyfriend go to Duke?"
"Huh? How did you - " I don't need to be outing him already!
"Dude, you said, your friend has someone else HE's entertaining. If he was straight, how would that be a problem?"
"You see, that's JUST the problem! I don't want to out him and the first thing I do is say something stupid to someone I don't even know -- and out him!"
"Hey, my name's Jerry, and my gaydar is honed and sensitive. No one else would have picked up on that. Don't worry about it. Who is he?"
"Good one! I'm not going to spoil it further! Your gaydar? Are you - "
"Yuh-huh! I'm gay too," Even though I was still staring at the grass, I could hear the grin on his face. "so even less to worry about."
"How IS being gay here?"
"I guess that depends on who you talk to. Most people don't like it very much, but a few would like to find all of us and put our heads on fence posts along the highway."
"Well, what would you do if - "
"What're you doing, Ben? I thought you were coming back!" Said Ranj, who appeared from around the corner. "Oh! Jerry! It's okay, he's with me. Ben's my boyfriend!"
Jerry looked at me and winked. "Oh REALLY? Nice to meet you Ben!" Said Jerry. "Well, maybe I'll se you guys around -- that is if you're staying here, um -- Ben!"
"I'm not sure." I said.
"He's staying!" Said Ranj. "At my place tonight!"
"I'm not sure about that, but that's why I came. I didn't expect to find you -- like I did."
"Oh! What did you expect to find? That I put myself in cold storage, Baby?"
"No, Ranj. I dunno what I expected. I guess I didn't have any expectation. It was just a shock. I'm not upset that you have found someone else. Well, I AM, but not upset AT you. More at me. I can't blame you! Dad TOLD me not to - "
"Ben -- I haven't found someone else. He's just a guy I know. No more, no less. When I told him who you are, he felt bad that you walked in on us.
"You told him who I am? You mean, he knows me?"
Ranj gave me "The look". "Ben, I meant, when I told him what you mean to me." I blinked and he continued. "Ben, I told him that I love you. I told him that you and I belong together."
"Oh." I said. "Sorry, Ranj, I really am quite tired."
"Well, if you guys are both okay now - I better get back to work." Said Jerry.
"Aww! Do you have to? Herman is still back at my place. He'll be disappointed if you don't come back and say hi."
"Herman? You mean as in, Herman Pounds?" said Jerry. Ranj nodded and grinned.
"I didn't know he was gay!" Said Jerry.
"He's not! But he's gay friendly!" Said Ranj.
"Gay friendly?" I said.
"I'll explain later." Said Ranj.
"In his case it obviously means he likes to suck and be sucked, probably." Said Jerry. "And maybe even likes to top. But most gay friendly guys stop at bottoming - - or kissing."
"But he's not gay!" I marveled. "How do you both know him?"
"He's kinda like Bull back at Cerritos. Only he's not mean like Bull."
"He's on your team?" I asked.
"He's only the team captain!" Said Jerry. "Okay, I'll stop in just for a minute. He won't mind?"
"Naw. Everyone likes you, Jerry. Herman may be surprised you are gay though."
"Hey! Maybe I'm not! Maybe I'M gay friendly! Hee hee! Can two gay friendly guys get it on together?" Jerry giggled.
"That sounds mutually satisfying to me. No worries about one getting too attached." Ranj said. "Benny, that's the only reason I decided to get some from Herman. I knew he couldn't get attached. He has a hot girlfriend."
"So, if she's so hot - why does he need - - you?" I asked. "And - has he fucked you?"
"Ben! Now you're just being ignorant! Of course not!"
"But he probably wanted to!"
"Are you finished - - Ben?"
"I'm sorry Ranj! I really need to get some sleep. Is it okay for me to stay over in your place?"
"Well, I'll have to ask the campus dick." He said, smirking. "Jerry?" Ranj giggled. "Do you think my boyfriend can stay one night with me?"
"As I am on duty tonight, I can assure you the campus dick will look the other way." This time it was Jerry's turn to giggle.
Back in front of the dorm room, Ranj said, "Lets freak Herman out. When we open the door, Jerry, you rush in and yell that it is a raid, and why is he sitting around naked in another guys room."
Jerry did as suggested. Herman blandly said, "Oh, hi, Jer! Did you see Ranj Kumar out there?" As if Jerry had not said anything. "I think he went looking for his boyfriend." Herman smirked.
"You suck!" Said Jerry.
"Well - maybe - but that's about the extent of it. If my Indian friend's lover hadn't come along, I'd have had my first taste of Punjabi semen." Herman looked at the ceiling. "Hmm - I wonder if it would have tasted of curry." Herman laughed and added, "I wonder if campus dick dick tastes as good as Sikh Suck-um?" He grinned steadily at Jerry.
"What? Right now? I'm on duty!" Said Jerry.
"Lighten up, Jer!" Said Ranj, "Even dicks need a coffee break!"
"Don't you mean a 'cummy break'?" Said Herman.
"I guess I must have! Besides when will you get another chance to have the star quarterback go down on you?" Said Ranj.
"And," added Herman, "The campus quarterback would love for a strapping guy in uniform to take my serum! I'm not gay, but I much prefer a cute guy to go down on me than an ugly one1! Bad for the rep, you know!"
"Oh, you think I'm cute?" said Jerry, warming to the idea.
"Don't let it go to your head. Just open your fly and let that prisoner out. He looks like he's straining to be free!" Said Herman, grabbing the protrusion in the front of the shy security guard's pants.
"Hey!" Said Ranj. "Get a room! The far is mine. Try not to spill any milk in there!" Herman was small but built, He pulled the skinny security guard into Ranj's room and shut the door.
As soon as the door closed, Ranj grabbed me and pulled me into a wrenching hug, and kissed me passionately. Then he looked deeply into my eyes, and said, "A certain straight quarterback left my balls quite blue. You wanna help clear that up?"
"I think I could probably help you out! What do I get out of it?" I said, grinning.
"Oh, stop grinning like a little kid and wrap your lips around the prettiest Indian cock you ever saw! That is - if you're not too tired!"
"Actually I've never seen another Indian - wow! I don't remember it looking that good!" I said as he dropped his pants right there in the hall.
"Just a sign of how horny you are. Do well, my sweet lover, and I will make your trip worthwhile."
I felt his balls first. "That hurt?" I asked
"Well, it's not really my balls. It's my stomach. I need this more than you know!"
"Well then, lets get you off with some fast food, and we'll save the Grande Buffet for later!" I said, as I immediately started to suck and jack him off at the same time. I was rewarded faster than I thought possible with his wood being rammed down my throat and the sweet taste of my honey's honey.
"Do I need to take a number or is this a private engagement?" Came a low drawl from behind me.
I was stunned as I turned and there was a tall, lanky, blond hunk, towering over us. He was grinning expectantly.
"Rex!" Said Ranj. "I -- I mean we -- I mean -- Damn! Sorry you had to see that! I didn't expect you until - "
"Ranj! I- that's okay -- I mean -- GEEZ! I never thought that watching two guys at it would do this to me!" Said Rex, rubbing his crotch. "That was about the hottest thing I ever saw!"
"Rex, this is my boyfriend, Ben. Ben, Rex."
Instinctively I shot my right hand out to him. He started for it then hesitated. "Um -- was that the hand that -- um -- well, anyway -- hi!" He said, rolling his fingers back into his hand and putting it at his side.
"Rex is from Texas." Said Ranj. "He's one of my roommates. Hey, Benny! STOP ogling him!! Hahaha!"
"I think your boyfriend want a piece of me!" He said, as he looked me up and down more than I thought any straight guy would. "What?" He said.
"What - - what?" Said Ranj. "I didn't say anything. Geez, Rex, I believe you were checking out my boyfriend!"
"You shut your trap, fag!" Said Rex, laughing. He then jumped on top of Ranj, even with his pants down, and his dick still dripping! Ranj was no match for this big Texan, who knelt over his chest and teased him with spittle dripping from his mouth. He never actually let it get to Ranj. But what the lanky Texan could not see was that Ranj's wood was quickly re-forming right under his butt!
I giggled.
When Rex looked over at me, I was unconsciously rubbing MY crotch. "You are one horny little dude, aren't you?" Said Rex. He got off Ranj, who very quickly rolled over and with his back to us, pulled his pants up. We both thought he got away with it until Rex said, "And don't think I won't get even for pointing that THING at me just now!"
"Oh, please get even with ME!" I didn't say - - but thought so loudly that I was afraid he heard it.
"Okay! Well, listen, dudes -- uh -- great to meet you Benny -- next time try to remember to -- uh -- MAKE IT ALL THE WAY TO YOUR ROOM! And with that -- I'll leave you to finish -- whatever it was you started!"
"Or -- you could grab a chair and watch what I have planned for Ben!" said Ranj. "I KNOW you want to!" He said, then added, "Hell -- YOU know you want to!" Then he added, "And by the way, Herman and the Dick are in my room."
"Um -- I think I'll pass watching this time, Ranj!" Said Rex. Then he looked at me and said, "Ranj gives a whole new meaning to `wild Indian' doesn't he?" Then he went in his room and closed the door.
That was when Ranj attacked and brought out the best of ME!
After we were finished, Ranj said, "I'M STARVED!!! Lets go get some dinner."
We showered and got dressed. All my stuff was wrinkled from my suitcase, but he said it didn't matter: he didn't want me looking all that damned hot to others anyway!
"Hey, Rex," Ranj hollered toward Rex's open bedroom door. I saw him hunched over his desk as we passed the door. "You wanna go get some chow with us?"
"Indian food?" Asked Rex.
"If that's what you want."
"I LOVE Indian food!" Said Rex.
"I LOVE this guy!" said Ranj, pointing to Rex.
"Where's your other roommate?" I said, noting that there were two beds in Rex's room."
"We're down one, actually." Said Rex. "It doesn't hurt my feelings! I have bunked with Charley for two years. He's okay - - but - "
Ranj said, sticking his lower lip way out. "But Rexxy deserves a room of his own!"
"And tomorrow, " I started, "maybe you can point me in the direction of a place I can rent."
"Huh? Wait a minute!!! You're -- you're STAYING!!??" Said Ranj. His look left me wondering if that was what he wanted. "I thought you were just here for a visit."
"That settles it!" Said Rex. "Now we HAVE to trade rooms!"
"Huh?" We both said.
"Benny HAS to stay here -- with us!" And then the way he looked at me gave me a chill -- but in a GOOD way -- TOO good!
"Oh -- uh -- I dunno about that! Don't they have rules?" I said quickly. "And -- oh! I also have to find a job somewhere, and - "
"That settles it!" Said Rex. "Now you HAVE to stay here -- at least for now! Just the first, last and security deposit will set you back a ton!"
"My parents are paying that for me. I really don't want to impose - "
"Nonsense!" Said Rex.
"Hey, wait a minute!" Said Ranj to Rex finally. I was relieved that he was finally coming to my aid. Then Ranj turned to me. "Well, as Rex said -- Nonsense! No one will even know you are here until they want to put another dude in this room. And that probably won't be until next semester, at least."
"But - "
"No buts allowed. Ben!" Said Ranj with a finality I didn't even want to argue with. Then he softened. "Well -- except YOUR butt! And tomorrow we will both move our butts into the big room and Rex can have his precious privacy."
"But what if someone finds out?" I said.
"Who's gonna tell? The campus dick?" Said Ranj. "He's already on our side!"
We rode a bus and got off and walked to a place called Dale's. Didn't sound very Indian to me, but once inside, it felt Indian -- and the food was enough to convince a native -- I think. Lots of Ranj's curry, and also very spicy. I must have drunk a gallon of water! It was also expensive, but -- Ranj insisted on paying, since it was his idea to go out. He said, "We had to do SOMETHING to celebrate you coming!
"Hey!" Said Rex. "Isn't that what you guys were doing when I came home tonight?" Then he added, "And - - are we gonna celebrate like this every time Benny comes?"
We all laughed and Ranj said, "Actually -- I do!"
I fell asleep on the bus on the way back. So did Ranj. Here was the seating configuration when we got on the bus. It was late, so there weren't many on the bus, but anyway, Ranj purposely sat between me and Rex (I think!)
When we got to our stop, Ranj was propped up against Rex's arm, hugging it so he wouldn't fall. I was sprawled out across Ranj's lap, with my face squarely in Rex's crotch. Well -- my ear anyway! It was only a moment, between when he woke us both up and we got up, but I was sure that I felt one hard steel rod under my cheek.
We went into the dorm and Ranj steered me to his bed. I fell on it and was asleep as soon as my butt hit the bed. I expected to feel Ranj's warmth next to me, but I was too tired and groggy to realize he wasn't there.
I awoke a couple hours later with a raging desire to pee. It must have been that gallon of water I drank at Dale's. It took me a few moments to realize where I was. "Where's Ranj!?" I thought.
It didn't take long to figure it out. He was asleep on a big chair in the small living room/kitchen. I first went to the bathroom and peed for what seemed like at least an hour!
Then on my way back, I stopped and invited Ranj to come back to bed with me. He mumbled something and got up, and flopped down on his bed. I climbed in behind him and spooned his warm body, my arm over his side and caressing his chest hair -- for all of about 3 seconds before we were both out again.
The next thing I knew, I perceived light somewhere beyond my closed eyelids. Then something warm resting on the top of my back. I opened my eyes to see a strange guy looking into my eyes. Somehow recognition came before I jumped. It was Rex. He had already put his finger up to his lips to tell me, "Shh."
He got up and tiptoed out of the room, turning once to beckon me, as he disappeared out the door.
Ranj was sleeping peacefully when I left the room. As I silently closed the door, Rex laid his hand on my shoulder, nearly making me jump out of my skin. He was in no more than some really tight and ragged tighty-whiteys. His ripped abs took precedence over the comfortably soft bulge below them. I'm sure he noted my quick sweep from his toes to his nipples. He turned and again silently beckoned me to follow him into his room.
He has a tight, neatly rounded butt, which was showing pink through a few holes in his briefs. I followed him into his room and shut the door silently behind me, and then leaned on the door for support. Nervousness was the only thing that kept my boner from appearing.
He looked at me -- much as I had him -- but of course in comparison, I was skinny and weak. But as his eyes took it all in, he smiled.
He sat on the bed, patting it next to him. "Have a seat. If it's okay -- I want to ask you something -- or -- a few things." His voice, though a little strained, was still low and mellow. A little smile -- maybe even a little nervous smile -- graced his lips.
I walked slowly to the bed and sat close to Rex. He again looked at me and smiled. He actually touched my hand, withdrew his hand then again touched it -- and then took it in his. "I -- I -- don't quite know how to begin, um -- Benny -- but -- there is just something -- I dunno -- familiar about the way you present yourself -- um -- to me." He coughed softly. "This is really hard for me -- so please be patient. I have a request for you."
"A request?" I said.
Notes: What does the big Texan want from our boy? I really don't know ... yet. But whatever it is, he will have to "deal" with, I perceive. Any comments are welcome -- as usual. Thanks for all your support and letters! I will still try to answer them all. Email them to Steve at stevethomas535@hotmail.com. Thanks and love, Steve
