John Paul McQueen sat down one evening, opening a drink he took a swig of his beer and relaxed on the sofa. It had been one hell of a day, and he was just looking forward to catching up with his favourite TV shows and having an early night. As he sipped his beer he looked down at the label grinning as the memories began to flood back, memories of years ago and memories of someone who used to drink that beer. As he sat there his eyes fluttered and not long later he was fast asleep having a very pleasant dream.
12 years ago...
"Oh fuck...shit" John Paul muttered tripping up the stairs spilling the contents of the box his sister had asked for. He put the box on the stairs and put the contents back inside before making his way to the flat door, knocking on it he waited impatiently, "Hurry up...this box is bloody heavy" he muttered as he heard, "Alright...alright hang on," from the other side. John Paul was nearly blinded by the garish pink walls that hit his eyes as the door opened, "John Paul what the...what has she asked for now?" Rhys Ashworth asked standing in the doorway. "Mate it's a load of shit honestly but she wanted it and...well do you wanna tell her she cant have it. Rhys thought for a second, "No...absolutely not...bring it in" he muttered turning around. John Paul walked in and put it on the floor next to the sofa, "Fancy a beer mate?" Rhys asked not even waiting for a reply but pulled 2 bottles out, "I mean you decided for me...but sure thing" he chuckled as Rhys sat down next to him passing him the beer. "So...how are you mate how's things with Craig?." John Paul didn't even know where to start, "Ummmm...well it's hard doing long distance, him in Ireland and me here...but to be honest I think it's sort of over between us" Rhys gasped, "Ahhhh mate that sucks well it's his loss mate...there's plenty more fish in the sea...and plenty of...ummm dicks to suck I suppose" he chuckled as John Paul spat out his beer all over the floor. Coughing and spluttering he grinned, "Umm...yeah...i suppose...but there isn't much dick around here that takes my fancy." Rhys raised a brow, "What you mean...ummmm that Doug...he's handsome and there's Brendan if your into Irish Psychopaths" John grinned, "Sadly the bad boy doesn't float my boat I like the average man someone like...no" Rhys was intrigued, "Like what...you gotta tell me" he grinned as he slapped John Paul on the leg, "Like...someone like well you...a nice handsome lad" Rhys felt himself blush, "Haha cheer's man...nice to know I still got it" John Paul chuckled, "Don't go getting a big head he grinned as Rhys wiggled his hips round and round, "You sure you don't want a piece of this" he jokingly muttered thrusting his crotch upwards. John Paul for the second time tonight spat his drink out only this time it was all over Rhys. "Shit...sorry man" John Paul chuckled grabbing a tea towel and began to dry Rhys' shirt off. "No, it's fine mate..." Rhys muttered as He rubbed the man's chest. Unknown to John Paul Rhys' had really sensitive nipples and the rubbing was doing something to him downstairs, his bulge became large and prominent of which John Paul noticed, "Ummmm...ok" he sighed as Rhys wanted the ground to swallow him up, "Shit...fuck" he whispered as John Paul stared at him, his cock was solid and as the rubs on his chest slowed down a silence filled the room as Rhys breathed heavily, "Fuck it" he moaned as he reached out and slammed his lips against the other man's.
The kiss had taken JP by surprise and his first thought was to pull away...this was his brother-in-law; this was so wrong so why was his hand reaching down to Rhys' bulge and squeezing it. "Fuck" Rhys moaned as they furiously made out, His other hand caressing Rhys smooth face until JP pulled away, "No...we...we can't you're straight and married to my sister." Rhys was breathing heavily, "Yeah...yeah you're right I don't know what came over me." John Paul sat on the sofa and the silence was deafening, "I...i just lost it sorry...it's umm been a while" Rhys muttered, "I don't wanna heat about you and my sister," Rhys scoffed, "There's nothing to tell that's the problem." The silence filled the room once more all that could be heard was breathing as John Paul and Rhys looked over at each other at the same time. "Yeah fuck it" JP moaned kissing Rhys passionately sliding his tongue into the man's mouth, "Hell he might be straight but he aint acting it now" JP Thought as the kiss intensified and Rhys pulled him, so he was on top of him. JP Ground his ass up and down the clothed bulge feeling it throb and Rhys grunt into his mouth. As he ran his hands through the man's soft brown hair. Rhys who was still shocked this was happening melted into the kiss letting John Pul take charge for the moment, Rhys just loved the feeling of the man's ass on his crotch and he really didn't want it to stop, thoughts were flooding his mind, he had never been with another man before so this was so out of the blue for him but If there was a chance he was going to get some action then it was worth it. John Paul pulled away wiping the string of saliva from his face, "So...what now?" John Paul asked as Rhys sat upwards making the man stand up. "Ummm...well I suppose I could do with a nice blowie?" Rhys asked as a smile crept across JP's face, without a word he crouched to his knees burying his face in the bulge and inhaling deeply. Rhys grabbed the mans head and pulled it hard into his cock grinding the shaft all of his face as John Paul lapped and sucked at the fabric, "AHHH FUCK YES" Rhys moaned pulling off his fitted grey shirt revealing his sexy lightly toned body. Now Although Rhys might not be the fittest person in the village, he didn't have a six pack or hard muscles, but John Paul found his body to be very sexy, pink hard nipples and a few hairs between his chest, a flat slightly wobbly stomach, and a very sexy treasure trail. He ran his hand up Rhys' stomach feeling every hair of that trail before Rhys slapped his hand away. "I need to get it out...like now" he grinned as John Paul undid his jeans and slid them down his lightly haired legs. The bulge in the cartoon print underwear was large and pre-cum leaked through the fabric as John Paul pulled the underwear down grinning as the cock was freed. Rhys stood there shaking it back and forth with his hands on his hips, "Good enough?" he asked as the man looked up, "More than enough" he sighed as Rhys stepped forward, "Then make it wet."
John Paul grinned reaching out and taking the hard shaft into his hand inspecting the nice cock, it looked to be around 7 maybe 7.5 inches long which wasn't the biggest he had ever had but it would certainly do the job well, his foreskin still covered about half of the pink head he could see poking through, his cock head was so wet and pre-cum dripped onto the floor. His shaft was slightly thicker than average with a small vein running down the left side, his pubes were brown and straight untrimmed, and his balls looked so fucking suckable and lightly haired. It was a pretty nice cock. John Paul pulled back the foreskin and opened his mouth lapping at a bead of pre-cum that was about to drip onto the floor. "Mphhhh yeahhhh" Rhys grunted as he felt the man's warm wet mouth around his bellend, he hadn't been sucked off for a long time, so this felt so good. John Paul lapped at the head jamming his tongue into Rhys' piss slit making the man go weak at the knees, he licked around the head before spitting it out and kissing down the shaft before burying his face in the man's balls inhaling deeply, they smelled amazing. John Paul opened his mouth and sucked the left ball into his mouth tasting the musk of the straight man as Rhys stood there hands on either side of JP's face pushing him gently into his nuts muttering, "Fuck...yeahhhh...suck my balls." John Paul sucked both balls lapping his tongue around them making them drip with saliva as Rhys pulled him hard into them moaning loudly as his balls were rammed into his mouth, his cock slapping the top of JP's head making Rhys laugh. Rhys let go and as soon as the balls were slipped out of JP's mouth he opened wide and shovelled the cock into his mouth sucking hard as he slid inch after inch down his throat, Wide eyed Rhys fumbled and put his hand gently on the back of his head, "OH FUCKKKKK" He shouted legs shaking as he fell back on the sofa, his cock never leaving JP's mouth and before he knew it he felt his cock slide down the man's throat and then he bottomed out. The man's nose pressed against his pubes. Rhys was feeling a range of emotions at the moment, confusion, a little guilt but mainly pleasure and as he felt John Paul's tongue sliding down the underside of his cock whilst it was buried in his throat it nearly made him cum on the spot, Both men looked at each other and Rhys grinned before slowly beginning to thrust up and down the gulping sounds were so hot, he slowly began to throat-fuck the man not too roughly...for now at least feeling his cock bend and slide down the man's throat. "Oh, fuck you suck dick so good" he moaned making JP grin as Rhys pulled the cock out of his throat and wrapped his hand around the back of his head. "Fuckin suck it" Rhys moaned as he slammed JP down.
John Paul was taken by surprise, he never thought of Rhys as being dominant in any way but the man was horny and getting his dick sucked by a pro so he was probably just testing the water to see how rough he could take it. John Paul just had enough time to prepare as Rhys thrusted up hard and pulled his head down hard his nose hitting the man's pubes with a thud making Rhys gasp. He felt Rhys's hands lock around his head as he threw his head back In sheer pleasure his eyes rolling back in his head as he fucked his fat piece into the man's throat t first slowly but before he knew it his balls slapped hard against his chin and choking sounds filled the room, Rhys led there one arm on the man's head one behind his head showing off his lightly haired armpit, he pulled the man down hard grinding his hips round and round coating the man's throat in pre-cum with his cock lodged as deep as it could go. Not even caring right now if he was being too rough at all, the man knew how to please his cock and he was gonna fucking take it. The warm wetness on his meat felt fucking amazing as tight wetness gripped his cock and he felt pre-cum firing down into the man's stomach. Rhys began to throat fuck the man, pulling all but the head of his cock out before ramming it back in, his balls slapping loudly on his chin, and The moan that came from Rhys's mouth when he had buried it all in John Paul was unhuman. He just stood there in awe watching his cock throb in John Paul's throat which was visible, he reached down and felt John Paul throat which unknowingly to Rhys trapped JP on his cock , "Fuck that's my cock in there" he exclaimed, as the man slapped at his legs as he couldn't breathe, "Oh fuck sorry mate", Rhys chuckled leaning back, "Need a break?" he asked as JP shook his head, "Nah man... that fucking cock is amazing...and it tastes so fucking good". Rhys grinned, "Cheers man...always nice to get a complement on me cock...wanna get back on it?" JP nodded and shoved the cock deep into his mouth sucking hard on the shaft as he pulled the pre-cum straight out of the cock. John Paul had sucked many cocks many times and loved hearing the moans and gasps as he was used like a personal sex toy, he had never seen Rhys in this way before but right here right now he wanted to be the man's personal cock slave whenever he wanted. He pulled back slowly looking at his glistening shaft, Rhys winked at JP before reaching out grabbing John Paul's head and forced his cock back into John Paul's throat leaning over the man trapping him in place once more as Rhys groaned primally, thrusting over and over his lightly haired balls slamming hard on the man's chin as the he gagged and spluttered, saliva poured from his mouth dripping down Rhys's large bollocks. Rhys was actually shocked by how rough he was being, he was usually not dominant at all, but something about how the man sucked him screamed, "Fuck my throat Daddy" and Rhys was all too keen to indulge the man. He was held there for a second before Rhys pulled him away and pulled him up kissing him passionately.
As the men kissed hard Rhys moaned, "So...what next?" John Paul grinned and leant in whispering into the man's ear, Rhys went wide eyed, "WHAT...YOU WANNA?" John Paul nodded, "I've never even...touched there" Rhys stuttered as JP Stood up and crouched on the floor, "It'll feel great...just lift your legs up...like right up" he muttered as Rhys slowly lifted his legs revealing his smooth pale cheeks, his cheeks were smooth, and his crack had some hair but not too much and the pinkest hole John Paul had ever seen. John Paul slapped the cheek making Rhys jolt and grunt, "Ready?" he asked as Rhys looked down, "Well I suppose so...fuck I never thought I'd ever be doing this" he chuckled as John Paul leant closer and buried his face between the cheeks, "oh...OH...OHHHHH WOW" Rhys moaned as the tongue lashed against his hole, the wetness was strange but it was sending jolts up and down his cock, Suddenly Rhys' eyes rolled back and he screamed, "OHHHH FUCKKKKKK", His legs shaking as his shitter was tongue punched, opening slightly with each thrust as John Paul went crazy. Rhys grunted louder and louder as he felt sensations he had never felt before, but it felt so good. John Paul lapped and sucked at the tight heat pushing his tongue against the hole over and over feeling it open before fucking it with his tongue in and out of the hole. Rhys was in awe at the situation he was in, he was a straight man bent in half with another man's tongue up his arse. Rhys reached out and locked his hands on the man's head rubbing the hairy cheeks up and down on the man's face. John Paul suddenly gripped hold of Rhys's cock and began to jerk it in sync with his licking, his hand quickly becoming wet with Pre-Cum. "ohhhhhhhh holy fucking god that feels good," Rhys moaned as he squirmed at the sensation between his cheeks. Rhys' tight ass tased amazing John Paul squeezed them around his face and inhaled the scent and it smelled fucking incredible. So manly and sweaty, Rhys hands shot to the back of his head once more to hold it firmly between his fat juicy cheeks pushing his ass against his Brother-in law's face as John Paul's tongue pushed inside. Rhys finally let John Paul go and his head shot up, his face was covered in his own saliva and Rhys's ass juices. John Paul gave Rhys's ass a firm slap and he grunted. "Man, that ass is good" Rhys decided to change positions as he pulled the man out and Rhys knelt on the sofa holding on to the back of it pushing his ass out. John Paul spread the cheeks once more before slapping them feeling the firm flesh between his fingers, Rhys grunted as John Paul dove back inside going crazy in his ass, breathing in deep, licking voraciously and squeezing the cheeks around his face to make Rhys moan as he shook his ass up and down. John Paul pulled his face from his hole and smiled at him. John Paul's hand was slick with Pre-cum which he hungrily licked off. "Tastes good doesn't it," as John Paul wiped the juice from his face, "Tastes fucking amazing man". Rhys grinned; he never knew having his hole eaten could cause as much pleasure as it just did.
John Paul grinned as he leant over the man reaching under and grabbed his cock, "Mphhhh fuck yes" Rhys moaned as he was wanked off like a cow being milked. John Paul rubbed his finger over the wet hole feeling it quiver to his touch, Rhys had his eyes closed as John Paul slowly pushed against the hole, his finger suddenly shot up inside Rhys' hole as his eyes flung open, "WHAT THE...FUUUUUUU" He moaned as John Paul began to slide his finger into the man's virgin ass, "Shhhhh...just relax...you got a tight ass" he grinned as Rhys' hands gripped the back of the sofa harder, this was strange. He had never even thought of playing with his hole before and it hurt a little, but his cock continued to stay rock solid, and the wanking with the mixture of fingering made him feel feelings he had never felt before. John Paul began to push and pull his finger in and out of the tight hole feeling it become a little looser with each thrust, he pushed in hard jamming his finger as deep as it could go, "Ahhhhhh...AHHHHHHH" Rhys squealed his head falling on the back of he sofa and his leg shook as John Paul found what he was looking for. He pushed hard rubbing against the man's prostate massaging it with his finger as Rhys' eyes rolled back and his head lifted, he was incoherent as his hole clenched tight and his cock oozed pre-cum onto the sofa as electric jolts shot through his cock, he felt like he was truly being milked now. John Paul massaged the prostate over and over leaving Rhys a shaking mess, he massaged him just enough and stopped when he thought the man was about to cum. Rhys looked back, "Fuck...wow" he muttered, tears in his eyes as John Paul grinned and curled his forefinger up and pushed it alongside the other finger watching Rhys gulp and his teeth grit as the finger shot up his ass. John Paul wanked the cock harder and faster as he stretched the fingers making Rhys squeal in pain and pleasure. The man's hole still felt so fucking tight and as he fingered the man hard he leant over and whispered, "Feels good don't it?" Rhys gasped as he Jammed his fingers in hard, "AHHH...YES...YEAH IT FEELS GOOD MATE...FUUUUUCK." John Paul grinned as he ripped his fingers from the hole and watched it quiver. He opened his mouth and sucked all the ass juice off his fingers as Rhys looked over in shock, "That's well filthy" he grinned as John Paul just grinned at him. Rhys stood up on wobbly legs and grabbed John Paul pulling him in for a steamy kiss, "Remember I've just ate your ass" John Paul grinned as Rhys smirked, "Just shut up" he whispered pressing his lips against the other mans once more. The kiss lasted a few seconds before Rhys pulled away, "What next boss?" he asked as John Paul only wanted one thing. He leant over and whispered, "Why don't you put this straight cock to use and shove it up me," Rhys was taken aback but as John Paul gripped his shaft he grinned, "Alright then...bend over...bitch".
Rhys grinned as John Paul bent over the sofa, his smooth cheeks wobbling as he shook the cheeks back and forth, Honestly Rhys was a little nervous, he had never fucked in the ass before but he wanted the man to know he was the boss right now, He stepped closer and spread the cheeks pursing his lips he spat down onto his cock watching it glisten as he rubbed it in, "Spit lube...typical straight boy" John Paul chuckled as Rhys scoffed, "Well if you wanna use vegetable oil then let's go because it's all I got". He spat down onto the hole and slapped his cock against it, "Ready?" he whispered as the JP nodded, He braced his legs, Rhys pushed against the hole grunting at its resistance, he gasped as his cock slip upwards unable to push inside. John Paul turned around, "Have you ever done anal...like with a girl before?" Rhys stood there, "Ummmm...no...no I haven't" he muttered as JP grinned, "You gotta push...like push harder and it'll go in." Rhys nodded as John Paul turned back around, Rhys was in for a hell of a shock when he got it in, Rhys put his head at the entrance once more and gripped his cock, he pushed harder and harder grunting as he pushed until finally he felt the hole open and watched mouth open as his head sunk inside. Immediate tightness gripped his cock like never before. He groaned as he began to push watching inch after inch disappear, "Fuck...that's tight" he groaned as his cock was squeezed hard. "Oh fuck...that's big" JP moaned as his hole was stretched open. Rhys pushed inch after inch until with a grunt he was fully inside. He opened his eyes and looked down gasping, "Wow...I'm inside you...I'm Up your ass," "Yeah...i can feel it...fuck that's big" he groaned inflating Rhys ego a little. "What now?" Rhys asked unsure what to do, "Fuck it like a pussy...but go slow first...that cock could do some damage" JP chuckled as Rhys nodded. Reaching out he grabbed the man's hips and pulled his cock back a little before thrusting inside still in awe at the tightness of the hole this was the tightest hole he had ever been inside of, and he wasn't sure he could ever fuck a pussy in the same way again. He repeated the thrusting motion a few times letting his balls softly swing and hit John Paul's ass. This was beginning to feel amazing for John Paul. His ass felt so stretched by his Brother in-law's cock, but it felt so good, it felt so right and to be honest he couldn't believe that he had managed to get the man inside him." He pushed back hard as Rhys thrusted in sending the whole cock inside him, "HMPPPPPHHHHH FUCK" John Paul moaned as a tear came to his eye and Rhys looked starstruck, "This feels fuckin amazing...most girls can't even take it all in their pussy." John Paul winked through the tear, "Well...I'm not a girl am i..." Rhys grinned and slapped the cheeks before grinding his hips round and round coating the man's hole with his pre-cum making John Paul grunt and moan. Rhys slowly pulled back, leaving just 3 inches inside once more and grunted loud while thrusting in hard making his bollocks bounce and slap against the boy's ass making John Paul gasp for air and squeal as the man began to fuck him hard and fast, his eyes narrowed and teeth gritted as he focused on pounding the hole harder and harder, the sound of his balls slapping against the man filled the room until with one last squeal inducing thrust he ripped his cock from the hole. Stepping back, he grinned, "Wow...that hole is loose" he chuckled as John Paul stood on wobbly legs. "Man, that cock is a hole wrecker...Now want me to ride you?"
Rhys nodded as he was pushed onto the sofa. John Paul straddled the man facing him watching his eyes roll back as he slid down his hole and began to bounce up and down, "Fuck...yeah...yeah...fuck...ride it" Rhys moaned, his hands on the man's hips guiding him up and down. John Paul reached out slapping the man's slightly sweaty chest and rubbed up and down feeling the soft slick skin under his fingers as both men grunted and groaned like cave men. He pushed the cock in and out of his hole squeezing his hole and making Rhys mumble incoherently, the feeling on his cock was like no other and every now and then he had to ask JP to stop or he was gonna cum. JP bounced up and down like his life depended on it the sound of their skin slapping together filled the room as he leant over and pressed his mouth against Rhys' once more sliding his tongue deep inside as Rhys grabbed his cheeks and began to bounce him up and down. the thrusts got faster and faster as the kiss became more and more passionate until Rhys out of nowhere pulled the man away from the kiss and reached under him lifting him up. John Paul was shocked and so was Rhys' he didn't know he was this strong. "I need to cum mate...Wanna pound a load into you" he grinned as he put John Paul on the sofa and the man put his legs on Rhys shoulders, "Fuck me...fuck me hard...cum inside me" he moaned as Rhys shrugged his shoulders, "Well if you say so" he grinned pulling back and grinning as he smashed his cock inside a loud slap filled the room alongside a deep groan from the bottom John Paul, there was no time to recover however as Rhys repeated the motion over and over, "Ohhh faster...faster...harder...harder...Fuck MEEEEEEEE" John Paul moaned making Rhys begin to slam harder and harder his balls slapping hard against the boy as he gritted his teeth and snarled, he pulled his cock nearly all the way out before smashing it inside, "AHHHH FUUUUCK" John Paul squealed in pleasure, The hunk repeated this motion over an over making John Paul's cock spit pre-cum all over his smooth chest. He slammed in hard once more and John Paul squeezed his hole down making it extra tight as he slid inside, "Fuuuuuuuuck John Paul...so...tight" Rhys moaned as sweat dripped from his body onto John Paul. They looked at each other in the eyes. As Rhys fucked into the squeezing hole he felt a feeling in his bollocks, a tingling sensation and he knew what it meant. "Fuck...think I'm gonna cum" he muttered going crazy on his hole slamming hard over and over making JP see stars as Rhys' cock throbbed and his balls tightened, "Fuck...fuck...fuck...FUCK IM FUCKIN CUMMING" he wailed as he threw his head back and his eyes rolled back as his cock exploded inside the boy's hole, "Yes...yes...breed me" John Paul moaned feeling the warm wetness fill his hole as torrents of cum filled him up. Rhys' legs shook, his toes shook as he has the most intense orgasm of his life, it felt like it would never end. Finally, after 7 shots exploded inside he gasped a sigh of relief before falling back. Grunting and sliding out of the hole watching his cum drip out of the open hole. Rhys collapsed onto a chair and led back, his eyes closed breathing heavily. John Paul sat up and looked at the hunk, he then raised a brow and grinned as before he knew it he was on the floor between his knees.
Rhys suddenly felt wetness on his cock, "What the...NO MAN...I've already cum", he stuttered as JP spat the cock out, "Yeah...but it's still hard...and I wanna taste it" he grinned going back down and sucking hard tasting nothing but his own arse and Rhys' cock juice as Rhys just watched, he was spent he couldn't move but if the man wanted his cum then he would fucking get it John Paul sucked the head hard before sliding the cock down his throat impaling his own throat as he massaged Rhys' still full balls, he knew it wouldn't last long so he sucked with all his might making Rhys gasp in pleasure, his hips grinding and legs shaking as once again his balls tightened once more, "Ahhhh...it's coming" Rhys moaned as JP pulled out so the head was on his tongue, he flicked the slit as he wanked the head as Rhys squirmed and moaned, "Fuck...fuck...fuck...FUCK FUCKING CUMMINGGGGGGG", Rhys teeth gritted as he watched his cock explode sending shot after shot of cum straight into John Paul's open mouth and face, one shot even hitting the man splattering all over his face as Rhys gasped loudly, finally one last shot dribbled out and he sighed back on the chair his cock finally going soft as John Paul savoured the salty cum tasting it on his tongue before he swallowed it down, "Filthy fuck" Rhys grinned as JP wiped the cum off his face and licked it. "So how was that?" he grinned as Rhys stood up and kissed him once more, "Fucking amazing...I need your mouth and hole again" he grinned as JP shrugged his shoulders, "Well you can have it whenever you want...just give me all that salty spunk", "Whenever you want it" Rhys grinned looking over to the bathroom, "Fancy getting dirty and clean at the same time" JP grinned as Rhys led him into the bathroom, All he could do was stare at the man's wobbly arse...fuck he had to have it again.
It was true John Paul and Rhys did fuck on the regular...but only for a week as 7 days fucking every single day after their initial meeting was the fateful double wedding. When John Paul heard Rhys had passed away he was distraught, he reached around and felt his ass knowing he had taken Rhys' last ever cum shot up his hole an hour before the wedding. He feigned his hurt as feeling bad for his sister but truly he was pining for Rhys and would do for a while.
"FUCK" John Paul muttered as he awoke from his dream, looking down his cock was solid, "Wow Rhys...Look at what you still do to me" he grinned looking over at his beer bottle. "Thanks for an amazing week" he chuckled.
