Man in the Mirror Chapter 8 by John Josept
Royce, Chandler, Tony, and I continued up the stairs to the Jacuzzi Room. I was trying to get the Man in the Mirror out of my head, again. Royce must have seen the far away look in my eyes.
"You ok love, you got a strange look on your face all of a sudden," he asked.
"I'm fine", I told him and downed the wine that was in my glass in one gulp, then filled it again.
"Anyone up for more of this fine wine?" I said, my head was starting to spin from having a bit too much of the grape.
"I'll have another glass," said Tony.
"Me too," added Chandler.
"Well, I might as well have one too," Royce said, still wondering what was wrong with me.
I filled everyone's glass and we toasted again.
"Ok let's get naked and see what we have hanging," I kidded. Everyone laughed.
I am not sure if it was all the alcohol we consumed that lowered our inhibitions, but within a few seconds, we were all standing in a circle, naked, starring at each other. This was an interesting turn of events.
My Royce, with his beautiful body, was the best looking of the group. His half-hard dick was starting to pulsate and grow larger.
Chandler was just as I imagined him to be. Though his body wasn't huge for his tall frame, it was completely cut. His pecs and stomach were perfectly defined, as were his arms and shoulders. The pale smooth skin of his upper body had no hair, except for a reddish blond bush around this dick and balls. Along with that handsome face and those steely gray eyes, I could see why Royce was attracted to him. His cock was at its full 8 inches.
The big surprise was Tony. All over his cut and tan chest, he had thick hair that extended down to his hard stomach and trailed off to his pubic hair. At one time, his hair must have been all dark brown but was now turning grey. He was in remarkable shape for a man in his 50's. He showed little sign of flab.
Royce and I were staring at Tony's cock as we watched it grow. It just kept getting larger and larger. It looked too big for his five foot 7 inch frame.
"Damn, Tony", I said, "that thing must be about ten inches?"
"Actually its twelve inches, it's not full hard yet", Chandler said proudly, seeing Royce and my astonishment.
My god it kept growing until it lay nearly to his knees.
"I have to touch it," I said but I think it was mostly the wine talking now.
Tony looked over at Chandler, "Why not", Chandler said "we're all family now."
I looked at Royce, he smiled and said, "Go for it".
Tony was standing there looking at me with a Cheshire Cat smile on his face, his legs were spread open, his dick dangling in between and his hands on his hips as if to say come and get it if you dare.
I went up to him and looked him square in the eyes, and reached down and put his tool in my hand. It was not as hard as I thought it would be, but it was heavy, very heavy. I kept wondering what it would be like to have that humongous piece of meat up my ass. The thought scared me, but it also enticed me. My dick was at its full eight and a half inches now and starting to drip precum. Tony grabbed my cock with his left hand and started to stroke it, just as I started stroking his. It was a very unique feeling to beat off a dick that large. A pleasant feeling that's for sure.
Chandler came up to Tony and kissed him passionately. I watched as Chandler's tongue pushed deep into Tony's mouth. Tony grabbed Chandler's eight inch hard on in his right hand and started to stroke him in time with my dick.
I felt Royce's arm come around from behind me. He rubbed my abs then moved to my nipples and pinched them. His lips were sucking the side of my neck. His hard cock jabbed me in my back. I reached behind me with my free hand and grasped Royce's cock and started to beat it so it would jab me in my ass crack. We were all thrusting, stroking, gasping and moaning in cadence. I looked almost comical.
Tony let go of my dick and I reluctantly let go of his. He and Chandler never stopped their deep kissing. Royce came to my side and continued to stroke my dick where Tony left off. I held on to Royce's dick as we watched in amazement, as Chandler got on his knees in front of Tony and began to suck his huge 12 inch shaft.
First, he just took in the massive mushroom head, and then he slowly started to push in and out. With every stroke inward Chandler took in a little more of Tony's dick in his mouth.
"He won't be able to swallow the whole thing", Royce whispered into my ear.
"Hmm I don't know babe, take a look", I said.
To our surprise, Chandler had most of Tony's cock in his mouth. He let one more stroke inward and Chandler's nose was buried in Tony brown and gray pubic hairs. You could almost see the outline of Tony's dick in Chandler's neck. "What great gag reflex Chandler has," I thought to myself with a smile and a bit of envy.
He pulled Tony's dick all the way out of his mouth then in one push, he swallowed it and buried his nose in Tony's pubes again. Chandler did this over and over again. Royce and I stood there staring with our jaws wide open not believing what our eyes were seeing.
Tony, seeing that we were transfixed on what he and Chandler were doing, just looked at us, smiled, and said, "He's had lots of practice." Then went back and concentrated on what Chandler was doing to him, obviously enjoying every second of it.
Royce and I couldn't handle it anymore. Our dicks were dripping precum in a steady stream. Royce got on his knees in front of me and swallowed my dripping cock lapping up the precum as he did. He was sucking my cock but his eyes were fixed on Chandler and Tony. I have to admit I was also hypnotized by what they were doing.
Tony, seeing my intense stares, leaned into me and buried his tongue deep into my mouth. I almost dropped my load in Royce's mouth.
Royce, sensing I was close to cumming, withdrew his mouth from my cock. The precum was still flowing freely onto Royce's eager tongue.
Chandler, nearly exhausted, finally let Tony's dick fall from his mouth. Tony stepped closer to me and took me in his arms and we let our tongues swirl inside each other's mouths. My Royce then went over to his ex-lover, who was lying on his back on the floor. Chandler was breathless and sweat was pouring from his body after the workout of sucking on Tony's pud. Royce bent over, kissed Chandler on the lips, and grabbed onto Chandler's still rock hard penis. Royce then turned toward Chandler's dick and swallowed it. Chandler took advantage of Royce who was now in the classic 69 position, and gulped down Royce's dick.
"Does that bother you?" Tony said noticing that I was looking at our lovers having sex on the floor next to us.
"A little, but they are beautiful together aren't they?" I said.
Tony took my chin in his hand and turned my gaze toward him. He gently kissed me then let his tongue run a trail down my chest and abdomen and swallowed my cock. He grabbed hold of my balls and squeezed down on them. His attack on my cock became more and more intense. Faster and faster he pumped. I was close to cumming. I felt my heart race as my stiff boner started to fuck Tony's face. Suddenly I was in control and I pumped harder and harder into Tony's mouth. I showed no mercy as I rammed my full eight and half inches down his throat over and over again.
I started to moan out loud, "Oh god damn,,, oh shit.. that's... so.... damn", is the garble that came out of my mouth. The sweat was pouring off my face as I looked down at my new friend as he was devouring my cock. I looked over at my lover and Chandler lying on the floor sucking on each other's dick. I don't know why but the site of Royce making love to another man really was a turn on to me.
I heard Royce's familiar moan and I new he was close to cumming. I looked down again at Tony. I grabbed onto his head and pumped my dick harder and harder into his mouth. I heard Royce moan loudly and Chandler started to gag. My lover was cumming and I wanted to cum too. Tony must had known I was close too because he let go of my ball. When he did, I could feel my sperm begin to churn inside my ballsack. I pumped harder into Tony's mouth.
Chandler was now cumming into Royce's mouth but Royce didn't gag, he was swallowing. I couldn't hold it any more I had to release my load.
"Going to cum Tony", I said softly, trying to catch my breath, just as the first wave hit the back of his throat. Sweat was pouring from my face onto the top of Tony's balding head as wave after wave flowed from my dick down Tony's throat. I pumped and pumped until I could no longer feel the cum shooting from my shaft. I slowed my pace but Tony didn't seem to want to let go. Finally my dick fell from Tony's mouth and we collapsed to the floor.
Royce rolled over to where I way laying and kissed me deeply. I could taste cum in his mouth, the cum of his ex lover.
Tony and Chandler were now lying in each other's arms. We were all together now with the persons we were meant to be. We lay there for a long while just holding each other.
"I think we all can use that Jacuzzi right now", I said breaking the silence.
"Hmm that would be super", Royce said.
Chandler and Tony agreed. We slowly got up off the floor, took the top off the bubbling cauldron and one by one we got into the hot steamy water.
I sat down on the benches and Royce sat in between my legs with his back against my chest and my dick firmly in the crack of his ass. I put my arms around him and felt his body wiggle as if to get as close to me as possible. I looked over to our visitors. Tony was sitting on the bench next to me. Chandler was in between his legs but facing him, his head lying on Tony's shoulder. I could hear a faint sound of Chandler crying, no doubt because of the trip he was forced to take that would separate him from the man he loves. Tony kept saying everything will be ok and repeated over and over that he loves him. Chandler kept saying, "It's just not fair."
Royce grabbed my hand and squeezed it. I kissed the back of his neck.
"I think I need a cup of coffee", I said as I started to feel the affects of the hot water and the wine.
"Me too," Royce said
"Yeah, I think we all need a cup of coffee", Tony added but this time his words were starting to slur.
We all got out of the Jacuzzi and dried ourselves off. We didn't bother to put on clothes; we felt comfortable enough with each other that we didn't need to and went down stairs to the living room. Chandler had gained control of himself and was smiling again.
I went into the kitchen and put on a pot of coffee. Then I went to the cabinet and got some dessert dishes and some forks. After that, I went into the refrigerator and got out the Chocolate Mousse Cake that Royce picked out. I cut four good-sized slices and put them in the dessert dishes. When the coffee was doen, I poured four cups, put everything on a serving cart, and wheeled it into the living room to join the others.
I handed everyone a slice of the cake and a cup of coffee.
"Hmmm Chocolate Mousse Cake", Chandler said, "I bet Royce had something to do with this".
"Oh yes I sure did", Royce said. "I have to feed my addiction you know". We all laughed. We finished our cake in silence, everyone fully enjoying the delicious taste of the Chocolate decadence.
Having finished my dessert, I went to the bar and got four brandy snifters and my best cognac, a Frapin VIP Curvee 2000, and poured some in each glass. At $600.00 a bottle, I only served this to very special guest and they definitely classified as special. I handed each of them a snifter and offered a toast.
"Here's to Royce on his 30th birthday. Happy Birthday, Royce, and May you always be as happy as you are today."
"Here, Here", Chandler said. "Cheers".
We raised our glasses, clinked them together, and sipped our drinks.
"This is excellent Brandy", Tony said. His head was bobbing back and forth now. Obviously, the liquor was getting the best of him.
"I'm glad you like it. Excellent Brandy for Excellent Friends", I stated.
We sat and sipped our brandy. The effects of the martini's, wine, sex, Jacuzzi, as well as brandy started to hit us, especially Tony.
"It's nearly 2AM we had better get started back home", Tony slurred to Chandler.
"No you two have had too much to drink", I said, "I insist you sleep here tonight. We have plenty of spare rooms that you can use."
"Yes you must stay the night", Royce added.
Chandler looked at Tony and they both shook their heads in agreement.
"It would be safer." Chandler said to Tony. Then turning to me he said "Are you sure we wouldn't be putting you out?"
"No not at all, there is plenty of room," I said.
By now, Tony's head was bobbing up and down more rapidly. It looked like he was trying to hold back from falling asleep.
"I have to get this old man to bed before he collapses on the floor", Chandler said with a smile.
"This old man could whip your ass, sonny," Tony said slurring his words and trying to keep his eyes open.
"Promises, Promises", Chandler replied this time laughing out loud.
Chandler helped Tony up. Royce and I showed them to the large guest room on the third floor next to the gym. It had one of the best views of the city.
"Wow, this is incredible", Chandler said looking around the room and the fantastic view.
"We will leave you two alone now. The bathroom is thru that door", I said. I put my arms around Chandler and gave him a prolonged kiss. I then bent over to Tony who was lying on the bed and kissed him too.
"You're hot Eric", Tony said loudly, but this time his words were nearly indistinguishable. The drinks really got the better of him. "It was a pleasure sucking your dick tonight," he continued and grabbed my cock. The next thing we knew Tony was sound asleep.
"My poor Tony is not much of drinker", Chandler said. "Tomorrow his poor head is going to be spinning".
Royce took Chandler in his arms. They looked at each other and without saying a word they seemed to know how they felt. They kissed goodnight.
Chandler lay down in bed next to his partner. We said one more good night then left the room.
Royce and I went down to the kitchen and cleared up the dishes, putting what we could in the dishwasher. The rest we decided to leave in the sink and take care of tomorrow morning or I should say later this morning, since it was approaching 2:30 AM.
Then we went upstairs and crawled in bed, putting ourselves in the spooning position with Royce's dick in the crack of my butt.
"Great dinner Eric, thank you so much", Royce said snuggling in closer to me.
"Thanks Royce, your friends are very cool", I said, "I hope you didn't mind too much on what happened in the Jacuzzi room? I mean things did get a bit wild".
"It was fun love, I am just glad it didn't bother you either".
I yawned, "Yeah, it was nice", I said my eyes drifting off into a deep sleep. The last thing I remember was Royce's hard dick in my crack and him saying he loved me.
The morning had come too quickly. I tried to open my eyes but the room was too bright. I could feel Royce's dick still in the crack of my ass, his arm still around me. My head started to throb. Had I drank that much? My head kept going boom boom boom. It would stop then the pounding would start again. Wait, that's not my head. The noise was coming from the room above. It woke Royce up.
"What's that pounding noise? he said while looking up toward the ceiling.
"I don't know, I thought it was my head. I better go check on our guests," I said.
I sat up and my head started to spin. Damn I did drink a lot last night. I got out of bed and had to steady myself. My morning hard on was in full view.
"You ok Eric?" Royce said with some concern.
"Yeah, I am ok, just a bit hung over."
"Well, you are hung that's for sure", he laughed looking at my hard rod.
I opened up the bedroom door and walked into the hall. I passed the hall mirror and The Man in the Mirror was nowhere to be seen. "Strange", I said to myself and proceeded up the stairs toward the third floor guest room.
The pounding had started again and was definitely coming from the inside of our guest's bedroom. I knocked on the door but there was no answer, so I slowly opened it.
What a site. Tony's butt was up in the air, Chandler's legs were spread out to the sides, and Tony's 12-inch dick was buried deep in Chandler's ass. Tony started pumping Chandler's butt and the headboard started bumping against the wall, hence the pounding sound. My rigid cock jumped at the site.
"Oh fuck me Tony, Fuck my ass baby, fuck me", Chandler pleaded. I was almost tempted to join them, but decided against it. Besides, I had a hot man waiting down in our bedroom. I quietly closed the door and went down stairs. My dick was leading the way by eight and a half inches.
"Did you find out what the noise was?" Royce asked as I entered the bedroom.
"Yeah, your ex is getting his ass pounded by his lover", I said, "And that gives me an idea".
I jumped in bed next to my lover, grabbed him in my arms and kissed him passionately. Royce's dick sprang into action. I rolled on top of him, our tongues deep inside each other's eager mouths. My knees spread Royce's legs apart. Royce knew what I wanted.
"Fuck me Eric", is all he said as my passion reached a new high.
Royce reached into the table next to the bed and got the KY. He squeezed a generous portion into his hand and lubricated my cock. The sensation of the lube and Royce's hand sent a chill through my entire body.
"Fuck babe, that feels so good. I need to fuck you now," I said.
I grabbed my cock and guided it to my lover's rosebud. I gently pushed and it glided easily into his hole. Royce gasped with pleasure.
"Oh Fuck Eric," he said.
I pushed my dick all the way into his ass. The sphincter muscle clamped down on my dick as I pumped in and out of his beautiful ass.
As I fucked Royce, we let our tongues explore each other's mouth. Every time I deep fucked Royce, my tongue would go deeper into his mouth. I let go of his lips and concentrated on my dick in his ass. I pounded his ass as hard as I could. Thrust after thrust, my dick went deep into him. The look on this face went from pain, to surprise, to ecstasy. His breathing became rapid as did mine. His hard dick lay between our stomachs. We were both close to cumming. I wanted to fill his ass with my jism. I pumped harder and harder.
"Cum inside me Eric", Royce screamed at the top of his lungs. "Oh Bloody Hell, Fuck me!"
The sweat was pouring from my body onto Royce's. I heard Royce struggle for breath, then I felt his cum hit my chest, then again and again his prick juice covered our upper torsos. That was all I needed to see. My balls contracted into my body and my mushroom cockhead expanded in Royce's hole as the first shot of cum exploded into my lover's ass. Two, three, four times my jizz blasted into his pucker. I kept pumping even after my cum had stopped. I didn't want it to end. My sweat was still pouring onto my lover. I slowly stopped and looked into Royce's clear blue eyes. Then he smiled at me as I gently lay onto his sweaty cum stained body and we kissed.
Breathless, I said "Happy Birthday babe".
He could hardly talk but managed to say "Thank you love".
He put his arms around me, I gave in, and relaxed my body onto his and my dick finally fell from his asshole.
"You ok babe," I said.
"Oh yeah Eric, I am fantastic," he said slowly still trying to catch his breath.
I kissed him again and rolled onto my back. His cum dripped from my chest and stomach. I took my finger, scooped up some, and put it into my mouth.
"You have the best tasting cum babe," I said lapping up some more.
He smiled and leaned into me and we kissed again.
"Let's shower," he said.
We got up and headed to the bathroom. I passed the mirror. The Man in the Mirror was there this time.
"Where have you been", I said to him in my thoughts.
"You needed time to think without my around", he said.
"Well nothing has changed. I still feel I am doing all the right things".
"Good, I hope you will continue to feel that way, no matter what happens."
"What's that supposed to mean?"
"You're going to get hurt, when Royce has to leave."
"Go to hell", I said and proceeded to the bathroom.
"What's wrong, Eric?", Royce said.
I didn't say anything to him; I just grabbed him in my arms and kissed him hard and long.
"I love you Royce, don't ever leave me please." I told him.
"I won't leave you Eric, what's wrong, why would you say such a thing?" He asked.
"I don't know, maybe it's what Chandler said last night."
"I am not going anywhere Eric."
"Nevertheless, I am going to get in touch with my lawyers. I don't care what it costs, but they will have to do whatever has to be done to keep you here. It took me 40 years to find you and I am not going to let some stupid antiquated immigration laws keep us apart."
"Ok babe," Royce said smiling at my determination. We kissed again and got into the shower. We turned on all five showerheads and cleaned the cum from our bodies.
After finishing our shower, we dried ourselves and went back into the bedroom.
"I wonder what our guests are doing," I said, "do you think they are still up there fucking?" I laughed.
"Do you smell something cooking?" Royce asked.
"Yeah, maybe they are up and making us breakfast."
Royce and I headed out the door, still naked of course.
The smell of something good was stronger now. As we got to the top of the stairs, Chandler and Tony, still unclothed, were just coming down from the third floor.
"Good Morning," I said, "We thought you were cooking us breakfast."
"We thought you were cooking," Chandler said.
"Well who the bloody hell is doing the cooking?" Royce asked.
We started down the stairs when out from the kitchen came the mystery cook.
"FLIP!" Royce and I said in unison. Flip was standing at the kitchen door, his tight jeans accenting his ample package. The Black T-shirt he wore had a picture of a man in a Tae Kwon Do stance. The shirt fit him tight and showed off his chest and abs. His long black hair was pulled back into a ponytail.
"Good morning everyone", Flip said with a big smile, especially seeing everyone without clothes. "Eric you should really check your door before you go to bed, it was unlocked and left open," Flip said.
"Damn, see what happens when you don't lock doors, anyone can just walk in," I said as I went up to Flip and gave him a big wet kiss on the lips. Royce did the same.
"Oh don't mind him Flip, I am glad you're here", Royce said.
"Well I knocked several times but I guess you didn't hear. I hope you don't mind me just coming in like this?"
"I'm just pulling your leg Flip, and as I recall pulling your leg was lots of fun," I said laughing. "And besides, breakfast smells wonderful".
"Well since these two aren't going to introduce us, hi, I'm Chandler, and this is my partner Tony," Chandler said extending his hand out to Flip.
"Oh damn, sorry guys, this is Flip, our Knight in Black Armor". I said rather embarrassed at my lack of manners.
"We heard a lot about you. Seems you're quite the hero," Tony said.
"Oh I was only trying to help," Flip said with genuine modesty.
"Well sounds like quite a brave deed to me," Chandler said.
"Thanks", Flip said. I could see he was feeling embarrassed by all the attention coming from four naked guys.
"How is breakfast coming along Flip?" I said trying to change the subject.
"It's just about ready. Good thing I made a lot. I didn't know you had overnight house guests," Flip said.
"Well we drank a bit too much to travel back to the beach, and Eric offered to put us up for the night." Chandler told him as Flip was just finishing breakfast.
"Well, breakfast is ready, actually," Flip said.
"I will set the table", I said and got the dishes, forks, and knives from the dishwasher and brought them to the table just as Flip and the others got to the dining room.
"I know what we need", I said and went to the wine cooler in the kitchen and got a bottle of champagne and a carton of orange juice from the fridge.
"What we need are some Mimosas." I said re-entering the dining room.
I filled everyone glass half way with the juice and the other half with the champagne.
We all sat down, toasted Royce on his birthday, and ate Flip's Mexican style breakfast consisting of Eggs Ranchero and Mexican Sausage and warm tortillas.
"Excellent breakfast Flip," Royce said with everyone in agreement.
After breakfast, Chandler and Tony said it was about time they went back home, so they went up stairs and got their clothes from the Jacuzzi room and dressed up then met us back at the living room.
"Well, we're going to leave now," Chandler said. "You will have to come to the beach house before I have to leave, and Flip, you must come with them when they do."
"Sure, cool," Flip said.
We all went to the door to see Chandler and Tony off. I put my arms around Tony and said, "It's been a pleasure meeting you and I know I can speak for Royce, we had a great time last night".
"We did too," Tony said. I kissed him on the lips.
I went up to Chandler and put my arms around him. "You hang in there Chandler," I said "my lawyers are going to look into this situation. Whatever he does for Royce and me, I will make sure he does for you and Tony."
"Thanks Eric that would be great." Chandler said then turned to Royce and gave him a big hug. "You have a great guy there, Royce."
"Yeah I know, I am one of the lucky ones", Royce replied, with sincerity.
We all said our goodbyes one more time. Chandler and Tony kissed everyone again, including Flip.
"Oh damn," Tony said from out in the hallway, "don't forget to open your gifts".
Royce and I had forgotten they brought something.
"We won't," I said.
"Sorry we didn't open them sooner," Royce added.
"No problem," Chandler said, "let us know what you think", with that, they walked down the hall and out the main entrance.
"Nice people," Flip said, "speaking of gifts, I got you both a gift".
"You didn't have to do that Flip," Royce said.
"I know I just wanted to give you something I made. I sure hope you like it."
Flip went into the kitchen, came out with an unframed painting, and handed it to Royce and me.
The painting was of a well-built nude male with long black hair, casually sitting on a red couch in a slightly slouched position, with his legs spread open with a half hard penis.
"This is magnificent Flip", Royce said, "you are a very talented man."
"This is you," I added "its wonderful Flip, thanks so much, I know exactly where it should go after we get it framed."
"I hope you don't think it weird, me giving you a naked picture of myself, but I just wanted to give you something personal."
"It's not weird at all Flip, and speaking of naked, you have had your clothes on way too long, time to take them off," Royce laughed.
We both watched as Flip quickly took off his clothes and he threw them on a chair. His dick was starting to get hard.
"There is that better?" Flip asked.
Without saying a word, Royce got up, put his arms around Flip, and kissed him. I came up to them both and put my arms around them. Royce's kiss was becoming more and more passionate with Flip. He let go and I put my lips to Flip's and let my tongue invade his mouth. My dick started to rise and I could feel Flip's hard on as it poked me in my thigh. Royce was leaning in to both of us rubbing his hips back and forth.
Flip looked at me and said, "Remember what Royce and I did to you in the shower on your birthday? Well this time you and I should do it for Royce," he said with a gleam in his eye.
We all chuckled and headed up the stairs.
As we walked into the bedroom, I passed the mirror again. The Man in the Mirror was standing there in all his naked splendor, looking very superior, his arms folded in front of him.
"Well, I see the trio is back", he silently said.
"Yes, we are here and you need to ease up on me", I said to the Man in the Mirror, "I am not hurting anyone here, we all love each other and no one will get damaged".
"Who are you trying to convince, Eric," the Man in the Mirror said, "you or me?"
"Is there a difference?" I turned away from him. I did not wait for a reply.
