Screen Shots 1: Seduced Willa Okati What’s a guy supposed to do when his best friend since freshman year decides he wants to go get his freak on and get paid for it by an amateur gay porn studio? Confused by the changes in his absentminded buddy Cody, Aaron decides to check the place out for himself. TwentySomethingTwinks.com is nothing like Aaron thought it’d be. Professionally run and staffed by friendly, personable -- and hot -- talent, it’s a heck of a temptation even for someone who’s never thought about getting down with a guy before. Trouble is, Aaron finds he likes the action more than he thought he would -- and he’s starting to see Cody in an entirely different light. What’s a guy supposed to do now? Credits Cast (In Order Of Appearance) Aaron -- Cody’s “Chauffeur” Cody -- Aaron’s Roommate Dylan -- Unofficial Mentor To The Rookies Gabriel -- Twentysomethingtwinks Star Brandon -- Amateur Talent Ross -- All American Boy Next Door Maddox -- Outrageously Flexible Skyler -- Mouthy Brat Guest Staring: Jake -- Grad Student Crew: Katherine -- Owner And Ceo, Token Female Thom -- Producer And Lead Cameraman Smutpuppy -- Guard Dog -- yeah, right…
Chapter One “Yo, Aaron. Think I’ve got a lead on a job. You’re driving me. Cool?” As mornings went, this one already seemed promising to Aaron. Not home two minutes from a file-mile run with almost no traffic on the roads and his perpetual manchild of a roommate could potentially be employed within the day. “You’re serious?” Cody beamed at him, or tried to. Angelic innocence didn’t sit right on him. Devil’s horns, now, those fit perfectly. “Could this face lie?” “Yes. All the time.” Aaron grabbed the towel he’d hung over the plastic lawn chairs they’d picked up cheap at Wal-Mart. Went great with the card table they’d found at a yard sale. Voila! Instant dinette set. “Damn. You know me too well.” Cody stood over the sink, slurping and crunching his way through a pseudo-Tupperware bowl of cereal. His sweatpants, washed soft and pale, hung low on his hipbones, an inch away from whoop, there it is. Granted, he did have the body to make that work. Not that Aaron was looking. Not at his best friend and not like… y’know, that. Cody wiped the back of his hand over his mouth. “Whatever. You love me, don’t front.” “Doesn’t mean I trust you.” Cody mumbled something like “just called to confirm, I’m golden” through a mouthful of cereal and waved his phone at Aaron before he clicked it shut and tossed it on the card table. It slid under a mess of half-read newspapers and textbooks from a year ago that they’d never gotten around to moving. Aaron liked to think of them as a reminder that he and Cody did both have degrees, in finance and in philosophy, and someday they’d make names for themselves. Maybe even be rich and famous.

Or at least get something nine-to-five, which in this economy seemed like Shangri-fucking-La. Aaron extricated Cody’s phone from beneath a pile of flotsam and some assorted jetsam and tucked it in his pocket. Sweaty or not, he’d take the chance of wrecking it over Cody losing the damn thing again. The boy needed a keeper. Aaron was used to filling the role. Kinda amazing that out of the two of them, Cody had found work first. “When’s the interview?” Aaron mopped his face and under his arms, and for good measure shook his head like a dog in Cody’s general direction, spraying him with rogue drops of sweat. “And you say I’m disgusting. That’s nasty, man.” Cody flicked half a spoonful of fruity neon-colored cereal at him. “Interview’s in --” He checked his watch. “Forty-five minutes, an hour, something like that.” Cody waved the spoon at Aaron before he could properly react. “Chill, we’ve got time if we leave as soon as I’m done here and you get your ass in and out of a shower.” Aaron spluttered. “Dude. Calm down.” Cody scowled into his cereal. “It’s maybe twenty minutes outside of town. I know what I’m doing.” “That’d be a first.” Timetables and relative traffic speeds versus traffic congestion patterns swam behind Aaron’s eyes. “Jesus Pete, Cody. You so owe me for this.” “Yeah, yeah, whatever.” Cody tipped up the bowl and slurped down the last of his milk. Wait. No. Not milk. Unless the cereal had gone radioactive, there was no way milk should be that color. Dark, almost black, and thin. Aaron had lived with Cody long enough, since freshman year, to know better than to ask, but damn his curiosity. He had to. “What the hell did you put on your cereal?”

“Dr. Pepper.” Cody tilted his head as far back as it would go and licked the bowl almost upside-down. “Not as bad as you’d think, man. They kinda go together. And we were out of milk, even the chunky stuff.” “You tried the --” Aaron gave up. He crowded into Cody’s personal space and wrapped his arm around Cody’s neck. All the better to give Cody a good, up-close and intimate whiff. “You’re so freakin’ lucky you’ve got me. Anyone else would have kicked you out years ago.” “Other way around, Aaron. Get off.” Cody fake-gagged. “Shower now before they declare your sweaty ass hazardous to public health.” Aaron gave in. He never had been able to say “no” to Cody. He knuckle-rubbed Cody’s head. “Fine, whatever. Give me fifteen.” “Cool by me.” Cody licked the bowl. On his way out of the kitchen, something occurred to Aaron. He turned back. “You’re not dressed for an interview. You’re barely dressed, period. Do you need to--” Cody flashed him a fruity Dr. Pepper grin. “They can love me or leave me, my man, and dress code at this job site is as casual as it gets.” “You’ll fit right in.” Aaron tugged his shirt over his head and tossed it at Cody. “Seriously, what kind of job is this?”
*** Cody changed the radio station five times before Aaron smacked his hand away from the dash and plugged in his iPod jack, and that was before they’d reached the edge of the parking lot behind their apartment building. It was going to be a long drive. Cody flashed Aaron another one of his too-bright grins and nodded at the speakers. “Put on the grunge mix, yeah?” “Nirvana and Nine Inch Nails,” Aaron grumbled. “I snuck some Green Day and Beck in there.” “Hopeless child of the nineties,” Aaron said as they pulled out into traffic. He couldn’t help checking his watch. With any luck, they’d get there on time. Just.

“No dissing the nineties, man,” Cody said, pointing at him. “You’re lucky it’s not the eighties. I could go through a whole Duran-Duran phase.” Aaron winced. “The eighties were fucking awesome. In their way.” Cody tilted his head to one side. “If you like giant hair and money, I guess. Who doesn’t like money?” Aaron thought about that one and couldn’t come up with anyone except Mother Teresa and Gandhi. “Fair enough.” “No drugs or beehives, though,” Cody said, already drifting away, staring out the passenger side window and tapping his fingers to the beat of Random Song #1 on the shuffle. Death Metal. Nice ‘n’ relaxing. Uh-huh. “That’s the seventies, Cody. I think.”
“Whatever.” Cody waved that aside. “Listen, uh… thanks for the ride, Aaron.”
“Since when do you thank me for hauling your ass around town?” Long years of
practice enabled Aaron to reach without looking and knuckle-rub Cody’s head. Cody yelped and socked Aaron in the arm. Little son-of-a-bitch hit hard. “See if I’m ever grateful for anything else again, asshole.” “That’s my boy.” Relative silence reigned for roughly one mile, a personal best for Cody. Aaron had been on the verge of pinching him to make him produce some kind of noise when Cody, still looking out the side window, came out with the choice gem of: “I feel a chick moment coming on.” “I hope to God that means you’re hungry and thinking about stopping by KFC after the interview.” “Nah. Indulge me. Care and share, dickhead. When’s the first time you had sex?” Aaron opened his mouth. Shut it. Opened it. “Okay, that was out of nowhere.” “Was it good, bad, kinda forgettable? Drunk, sober, high, wasted?” “What’s it matter?” “Just seems weird to me you never said. Fuck, I tell you everything about every girl.”

“Brag, you mean.” “Whatever. Details, man. Inquiring minds want to know.” Aaron shrugged. “Does it make me a bad person if I said I don’t really remember what the sex itself was like, just that I spent the next four or five days grinning like a loon?” “Nah. I think that just makes you human.” “Sucks that I can’t get back the details.” Aaron tapped his thumbs on the steering wheel. “I’d had my eye on her for days.” “Yeah?” Cody turned halfway, still not quite looking at Aaron. “Tall, blond, stacked?” “Nah. Kinda short, brown hair. She did have a nice --” Aaron made a wavy gesture relatively suggestive of an impressive chest. “That wasn’t why, though. I don’t know, Cody. She wasn’t pretty, except when she smiled, and then --” He shrugged. “She had something about her that made me want to get close.” “So you’re not totally into T & A. Gotta have something that gets you here.” Cody tapped his chest and leered at Aaron. It’d probably been meant to be less dirty, but hey, this was Cody. A leer was as good as a pat on the back. “You sad old romantic dick.” Aaron gave some thought to the time-honored question: twist Cody’s ear or scoff? He went with a snort. “Some girls dig the nice-guy stuff.” “Hmm. Bet some guys would, too.” “How would I know? Never even looked at a guy that way, much less put the moves on them.” Cody digested that with a quiet grunt and a nod. “Guess that means you’ve never done it with a guy?” Aaron accidentally shifted gears and swerved. Cody snickered. “I’m gonna take that as a no. Me either,” he went on. “I kinda wonder what it’d be like.” “And you’re what, going to go find out?”

“Pretty much. Hey, take this next exit up here.” Aaron required a few seconds to understand the two sentences were unrelated. He hoped. Almost missed the exit but made it in the last second. “Indy 500, look out. Mad skills, these.” “Yeah, yeah.” Cody popped his knuckles. “So that doesn’t… y’know, freak you out?” “What, you acquiring a sudden taste for dick?” Cody shrugged and wouldn’t look at Aaron. “Why would I care? Doesn’t matter to me where you stick it. Just don’t give me the play-by-play the morning after.” “Same rules you had about my lady conquests.” “Because the same reasoning applies. Oversharing. Learn what it means.” “I am what I am.” “Okay, Popeye.” “Does that mean you’re Olive Oyl?” “There’s no winning this one, is there?” “Nope.” Cody rested his cheek on the window. Great. There’d be a huge Codyshaped smudge there later. Then again, given how the truck was a few months overdue for a trip to the car wash, not such a big deal. “I think it’d be okay,” he said. “We’re still talking about the guy thing?” Cody shrugged. “There any reason we shouldn’t, as long as it doesn’t involve gory details about my cock? You seriously wouldn’t think any less of me if I, you know --” He made a short but impressively concise hand gesture. “What’s your issue? I said no, it didn’t bug me, and I meant no.” Aaron felt irritable for some reason, something he couldn’t pinpoint, and that cranked up the aggravation factor. “I dunno. You get shy sometimes.” “Not shy. Private. Wary, maybe.” “Wary,” Cody echoed.

“Cautious,” Aaron amended. “Between the two of us, someone’s got to be the grownup. Why all the questions?” he asked, to take the pressure off himself. “Got your eye on someone already and I should start preparing myself now?” “Yes and no,” Cody said, cryptic as a crossword in Urdu. He flexed his feet and popped his toe joints. Someday Aaron had to find out how he did that. “Take the next left.” “That leads out into the country, Cody. As in farms, cows, and not too much else.” Cody chuckled quietly to himself. “Yeah, I know. We’re almost there, though.” “You’ve got to tell me what kind of job this is.” “You’ll see, my man. You’ll see.” Cody cranked up the volume and started to sing. Aaron gave up. For now. He’d get it out of Cody sooner or later, though, wait and see. What else were friends for if not torturing information out of one another? In the passenger seat, Cody kept his head turned to watch the right side of the road. He counted under his breath. “Three, four, five. Okay, it’s gonna be the sixth house on this side. There, right there. Pull in.” “There? It looks like a farmhouse. With --” Aaron rose in his seat to peer out the windshield. “Satellite dishes that look more like Mars probes. Wait, is there where that TV station that went belly-up used to broadcast from?” “One and the same.” The warning lights that usually flashed on in Aaron’s head whenever Cody came up with another one of his Crazy Schemes were blazing neon-bright. “What kind of job is this?” “You’ll see.” Cody barely waited for the truck to stop before he was out of the cab, his sandals flapping over the perfectly graded gravel of the driveway. Aaron followed at a slower pace. Huh. Had Cody landed some kind of caretaking job? Good on him if he had. There was a certain sort of tranquility to be found away from town. The air smelled fresher and the temperature cooler. “Not bad.

Ask them if they’ve got a job for me, too.” He had no idea why Cody cracked up laughing, and didn’t think he wanted to. “On second thought, I take it back.” “No do-overs, Aaron.” Cody laid into the door with the brass knocker shaped like a -- Aaron squinted. No way that was what he thought it was. Actually, there wasn’t any mistaking that. A door knocker in the shape of a cock. A pretty impressive cock, too. Cody having a shot at working here suddenly made a hell of a lot more sense. And then it didn’t, again, when the door opened and a guy who looked like he’d just stepped out of an Old Navy-meets-bespoke tailor shop answered. Young, goodlooking, definitely hard-bodied but not too much so and as crisp and clean around the edges he could have whipped out a bar of soap and done a commercial on the spot. He lit up when he saw Cody and offered his hand. “There you are. I wondered if you’d gotten lost. It is Cody, right?” “The one and only.” Cody ignored the handshake to bump knuckles with the guy. He jerked his thumb at Aaron. “This is my chauffeur.” “Very funny,” Aaron muttered. Something about this didn’t sit right with him. Watching his best friend and world champion slob Cody getting all cozy with preppie Mr. “way too calm to have a doorknocker shaped like a dick” bent his brain. “You want me to wait in the car, sir?” “Not at all.” The man stood back and held the door open wide. “I’m Thom. It’s a pleasure to meet both of you. Please, come in.” He let Cody pass but stopped Aaron halfway through to offer him the handshake too. Thom had a good grip, firm and dry and confident. “Are you here just as a friend, or are you interested in a position too?” “Let’s say I’m reserving judgment for now.” “Good enough.” Thom let Aaron pass and shut the door behind him. “Katherine will be here any second, and we can get started.” Aaron caught a whiff of perfume, something light and sweet, almost citrusy but with subtler musky notes. A light, feminine hand rested on his shoulder. “Cody, it’s a
Willa Okati
Screen Shots 1: Seduced
-13-
pleasure to meet you,” a woman said. Goddamn, that was a sexy voice. Husky and sensual. “Wrong man, Katherine,” Thom said. He nudged Aaron aside both discreetly and effectively. “This is Cody.” Katherine stepped past Aaron with the confidence of a woman who had the world at her command and knew it, without the need to make a big deal about it. A little older than him, maybe five years or so, and even hotter than her voice, but wearing a neat business suit that warned, off limits. She gave Cody a warm, wide, welcoming smile and took both his hands in hers. “It’s a pleasure. If you’d like to come this way, we can get started on your interview process.” Aaron couldn’t take it anymore. “What kind of job is this?” “Cody didn’t tell you?” Katherine turned to face Aaron, her smile no less sincere and welcoming. An honest woman with a good heart, if he was any judge. “Welcome to Steel
Mill
Productions,
more
commonly
known
as
the
home
of
TwentySomethingTwinks.com, where our mission is to provide a venue for inexperienced but eager talent.” It took a second for Aaron’s brain to try to rearrange the words into something that made sense. He gave up before the gray cells did. “Talent? Twinks?” “Amateur gay porn, if you will,” Thom said as pleasantly as if he’d meant to say “bookkeeping” and it’d come out in a different language. “The interview room is just down the hall. We hope you’ll like it here, Cody.” Cody might. He winked at Aaron as he walked past, Thom already talking on a Bluetooth he’d plugged into his ear. A sudden interest in guys, huh? Aaron was going to kill Cody for this. He wasn’t serious. Was he? A definitely masculine moan drifted under a door as Aaron passed it, followed by a baritone grunt of, “Yeah, baby, yeah. You like that cock, don’t you?” Okay, possibly he was serious.

Katherine stopped and turned to watch Aaron. A smile played around her lips. “I’ve seen that look before. Let me guess. Cody didn’t exactly fill you in on all the details before he dragged you along for the ride, right?” Aaron rubbed the back of his neck. “Not so much with forewarning me, no.” “You can wait outside, if you’d be more comfortable.” Aaron might have done just that if Cody hadn’t hesitated and looked back over his shoulder. He couldn’t leave Cody to fend for himself at the grocery store. Now, when he needed hardcore moral support, it’d take a colder heart than Aaron’s to turn him down. “No, I’m fine,” Aaron said, lying through his teeth. “Oh, God. Yeah, baby, yeah!” the man behind the door shouted. “Almost there -God.” Katherine laughed quietly. “You get used to it.” Up ahead, Thom directed Cody into another of the anonymous doors. It was kinda like watching a friend stroll into a lion’s den. Aaron followed without further encouragement. Hell, at least it got him away from the one guy begging the other guy to shoot on his face. Then again, maybe that’d been the lesser of two evils.
Chapter Two Aaron chose to stand in the doorway rather than come in, rationalizing that after all this wasn’t his interview. “If you could sit in that chair in the corner?” Thom asked, already behind a camera mounted on a tripod, fiddling with arcane dials and lenses on the thing. He wasn’t alone. A younger dude, maybe Aaron’s age, dressed in a turtleneck and artistically paint-spattered distressed jeans, perched on a director’s chair with a tablet PC in hand. “You’ve already met Thom,” Katherine said. “This is Jake.” “Right, yeah. I signed that addendum. S’up, Jake?” Cody pushed past Aaron. “Guy’s writing a dissertation on the sex industry.” Jake blushed. “Good to meet you, Aaron. You too, Cody.” Aaron frowned at Jake. What the hell was a guy who went pink and fidgeted in this kind of situation doing by hanging his dissertation on a -- never mind. At least the faint reddening made him look boyish and cute, like a puppy. Katherine took a seat across the way on a dainty blue-upholstered chair facing the one Cody was meant to go to. Cody waltzed right into the thick of it, down in the slouchy brown chair that reminded Aaron of a short, free-standing hammock. The design of the chair automatically nudged a guy into half-lounging with his legs sprawled apart and his pelvis tipped up. “Are you sure this is what you want?” Aaron asked Cody, dubious. It’d be easier to get molasses to flow uphill if Cody truly had his mind set on the job, but… amateur gay porn? Seriously? “Why not? I’ve got the body for it.” Cody stretched his T-shirt over his chest to show off his abs and flexed his arms.

“Yeah, but…” Cody rubbed his forearms. He wouldn’t look Aaron in the eye, but Aaron didn’t think Cody was embarrassed. More like stubborn and pissed that Aaron didn’t understand something he should have gotten the memo about long before. “It’s a job,” he said to a spot half a foot past Aaron’s head. “What’s wrong with that?” “Nothing, but… it’s porn.” “That too,” Thom said. He nodded, satisfied, at the camera. “We’re ready to go.” “Zip it,” Cody said. He settled comfortably in his chair, sprawled out like a Thanksgiving turkey next in line for stuffing. “I’m ready for my close-up.” The cameras started rolling. “Welcome to TwentySomethingTwinks.com, Cody,” Katherine said, as smooth and professional as a news anchor. “Pleasure,” Cody said, contriving to slouch even further. He tugged at the hem of his T-shirt. “Should I get naked now, or what?” “Not yet,” Katherine said. “Let’s get to know you a little first.” Cody tucked his hands behind his head and grinned. “Cool by me. What can I tell you?” “Let’s start with why you’re interested in joining us.” “I love sex,” Cody said, no hesitating. “Fuckin’ love sex.” That much was true. No one was more of a hound than Cody when he had his game face on. Aaron had had to haul Cody’s ass out of the fire more than once over the “I didn’t know she was your girlfriend” shtick. To give Cody credit, he never had known. Aaron’s head hurt. “… bi-curious, yeah,” Cody was saying. “I mean, I’ve looked at guys sometimes. Who hasn’t?” Aaron had to give him that, too. Nothing wrong with appreciating a good tight ass or a solid set of biceps, right? Then again…

“Good, very good.” Katherine propped her chin on her hand. “Let’s go ahead and get you to take your shirt off now, Cody.” Cameras whirred. Cody winked at Thom and went for it. The pants would be next, Aaron just knew it. “Nice chest,” Katherine approved. “Now, if you would, stand up and take off your --” I think that’s my exit line. Aaron did an about-face and if this was retreat, he was man enough to admit that. Nothing wrong with regrouping, right? Right. Not that there was really anyplace to go, and damn if this giant converted stone barn wasn’t huge enough for a guy to get lost in. Aaron wandered at speed out of the hallway with various moans and groans of more, harder, faster, give it to me. He might have gone on until he reached the front door, where he would wait for Cody, because he wasn’t “that kind of guy” -- the kind who’d ditch his buddy -- if he hadn’t almost mowed down a lean-hipped dude bent over tying the laces on his sneakers. “Whoa. Where’s the fire?” The guy didn’t seem to have taken offense. Maybe he saw a lot of men running away. “Haven’t seen you around here before. I’m Dylan.” Dylan offered Aaron his hand, and seriously, what the hell was with the terminal friendliness around this place? Aaron had a definite image of what a porn studio was supposed to look like firmly engraved in his mind, and this was so not it. “I’m Aaron,” Aaron said, taking Dylan’s hand. Dylan had a better grip than most guys Aaron had known, dry and firm and cool. “Good to meet you,” Dylan said. “Are you here for an interview?” “Not exactly,” Aaron hedged. “My roommate is.” “Yeah? Good for him.” Dylan said. Contrary to what Aaron had half expected, Dylan did not eye-fuck him. Didn’t look him up and down. He did flex, but only to check the fit of his sneakers. “He’ll like it here,” Dylan said. “I’m part of the talent. I’ve been with Katherine for about a year now.”

“Um,” Aaron said. He stared at Dylan. Damn. Dylan seemed so… normal. Young, fit, no bullshit. Like a guy Aaron would run into at the basketball court at the park, and Aaron liked basketball. “You’re a… seriously?” Dylan laughed at him, but quietly, like Katherine -- seen it, heard it, learned to deal with it, moved past it. “S’okay. Takes a little getting used to.” “So I’ve been told,” Aaron said. “Gotta say ‘good for you,’ too.” Dylan thumped Aaron on the back. “Not too many guys I know would be cool with their boyfriends doing this kind of work on the side.” Whirr went Aaron’s mental processors. “Whoa, wait, no. We’re not like that. He’s just my roommate.” “Yeah?” Dylan eyed Aaron in a strange sort of way, then shrugged. “Listen, some of the guys and me have a half-hour of down time going on before we get started. We’re doing this whole nature orgy thing.” Aaron almost swallowed his tongue. “You don’t say.” Dylan went on as casually as if they were discussing the weather. “You want to shoot some hoops with us? We could use a sixth to keep the teams even.” Cody wouldn’t be done for, well, Aaron wasn’t sure, but basketball beat hanging around with his fingers in his ears going la-la-la. “I’m game. Where’s the court?” It wasn’t until he’d fallen into step with Dylan that Aaron realized he was about to get sweaty and energetic with five porn stars. Dear God, he hoped they weren’t playing shirts versus skins. His cock twitched at the thought. Aaron stumbled. Uh, what? Well… could anyone blame him? Porn stars were porn stars. Naked, athletic porn stars were naked, etc., etc. Natural response. “Yo, Aaron, c’mon! Time’s a-wastin’,” Dylan called, leaning on a corner and almost out of sight. Aaron caught the smell of fresh outside air, heard the barking of a dog, and the rubber thwap of a good Spaulding on concrete.

As discreetly as he could, Aaron flicked his wayward cock with thumb and forefinger to make it behave. “Coming,” he called back, and sighed. This was going to be harder than he’d thought. Harder. Damn it. Aaron gave up.
*** “So it’s not the gay thing that’s got you tweaked?” One of Aaron’s impromptu teammates, an All-American type called Ross, played basketball like he might have gone to college on a scholarship, all easy confidence and long-practiced grace. Up on his toes with power from his calves, he sank the basket almost without effort. Nothin’ but net. “How do you like them apples?” Ross teased a smaller guy decorated with stark black tribal tattoos. On top of that he possessed a head of truly epic hair dyed glow stick green, moussed perpendicular to his head. It defied gravity. Aaron thought his name might be Maddox. Whatever his handle, it was hard not to look at Maddox and not just because of what he did for a living. Maddox shot Ross the finger. “Next time we film I’m gonna ask for that, dickhead. Brandon, you with me?” he called to another of the twinks, a small pretty guy Aaron would have bet was as tough as nails. “Bring it, Mighty Mouse.” Ross jostled Aaron. “Look alive. When Maddox is pissed, he fights dirty. So does Brandon.” “Good to know.” Aaron angled for a chance at the ball. “I don’t guess it’s the gay thing. Maybe at first. Now I’m not sure.” “No?” Ross asked. “Take the shot!” Aaron aimed for the goal. “Wherever someone wants to stick it, that’s their business, not mine, and if it feels good --” “And it really, really does.” Maddox dodged in front of Aaron, all guarding arms, and winked at him. Aaron laughed, surprised. “Don’t try and throw me off my game. You’re not getting this ball that easy.” He held the ball out of reach over Brandon’s head. “So no,
Willa Okati

I’m not homophobic, just…” There wasn’t really a good word for what he was feeling. “Surprised, I guess?” He sank the basket. “And maybe a little shy,” Ross said. “People keep saying that, too. Reserved, not shy.” “That too.” Dylan sank the next basket. “Game point!” he whooped. “And break.” En masse, the crowd of guys headed for a cooler at the side of the miniature court. Aaron stuck close to Ross, who as far as he could tell seemed sane and even kindly, and nodded gratefully when Ross offered him a soda with chips of ice still clinging to the sides. Aaron popped the tab on his can and took a healthy swig. “I think it’s mostly that I worry about Cody. Guy walks around with his head in the clouds most of the time and he’s not the best when it comes to making smart life choices.” “No one twisted his arm or turned his head, if that’s what you’re thinking,” Ross said, simple and honest. “Trust me on this. If Cody’s here, it’s because he wanted to be and he knows his mind. There’s a one-week waiting period between first contact and interview just to make sure guys aren’t going on any impulse they’ll regret.” “No kidding?” Huh. That made Aaron feel better about it. “Definitely.” Ross pressed the cold can of soda to his forehead. The more Aaron talked to Ross, the more he found himself liking the guy. Soft-spoken with a definite sort of shyness to him, not reserve, healthily laced with quiet conviction. “Katherine’s good people. If you work here there’s no pressure from anyone, contracts come one at a time, and you get the right to say ‘no’ to anything that freaks you out, no questions asked. We’re real, ordinary people doing a job.” “Which is having sex on camera for thousands of guys to watch and jerk off to,” Aaron said. “You’re not doing much to convince me you’re not shy,” Ross said. “I vote jealous.” Maddox joined them, Dylan loping behind almost on his heels. “I’m not --”

“And what makes you think it’s all men?” Maddox asked. “Lots of women dig this stuff, too.” While Aaron was still digesting that, stunned, Brandon went on, “I got a look at your guy --” “He’s not my guy,” Aaron protested. Again. He’d lost count of how many times he’d said that so far this morning. “Punch me if you want, but I gotta say it. You do act like a jealous boyfriend,” Maddox said. “Maddox,” Ross warned. “Yeah, yeah, whatever. Pay no attention to the man behind the hair. Whatever you say goes.” Maddox stole Ross’s soda and drained it. Yeah, sure. Aaron tried not to smile. “So here’s the way it is,” Ross said. “If you’ve never seen Cody like this, then maybe you should.” “Meaning?” Aaron made swirly dumb it down for me gestures at Ross. “Go watch Cody’s interview,” Maddox said. “There’s no better way to wrap your mind around this whole thing than to face it head-on.” He had a point, a good one, but… Aaron bit his lip, unsure. “What could it hurt?” Ross asked. “If you’re his friend, then be there for him. It’s as simple as that.” Aaron sighed and nodded, even as his stomach did strange twists and flops at the thought of seeing Cody naked and doing… whatever. Cock in hand or in someone’s mouth and… whoa. There went his dick again, doing its damndest to insist on its interest in that thought. That was what he wasn’t going to tell Ross or Maddox or Dylan. Stray bursts of horniness aside, Aaron figured what got to him was the shift in reality. He’d thought he’d known Cody as well as the back of his hand, and now everything was… different. Changing too fast. So maybe Aaron needed to run to try and catch up. All he could do was try.

Except…”How do I get back to the interview rooms? This place is like a freakin’ maze.” Ross led Aaron back to Ground Zero. He seemed to be waiting for something, and when Aaron didn’t move, said, “Go on in. There aren’t any windows, but if you open the door really slow they won’t catch the noise on camera.” “You know this from experience?” Aaron asked, dubious. Ross shrugged. “We all watch from time to time. We’re going to be working with the new guys. This is how we get to know them, too. Here, and on the courts. It’s all ball games of one kind or another.” The double entendre sank in faster than usual. Aaron groaned. Ross chuckled and shoulder-nudged him. “Just go with it. You’ll be cool.” Aaron studied the knob as Ross walked away. Was Ross giving him privacy? Huh. Unexpected, ninety-nine percent strange in context, but nice. He wiped his hands on his jeans and reached for the knob. Careful, careful, easy does it -Apparently, Ross had forgotten to mention that once the door unlatched, it’d slide open like a greased pig on a slippery stripper pole. Or something less bestial and disturbing. Aaron only just caught it in time before it banged into the facing wall, and when he turned around to sigh with relief, he caught himself an eyeful the likes of which he’d honestly never thought he’d witness. Namely, Cody, sprawled in the slouchy chair, legs sprawled wide open. Naked as a jaybird or whatever kind of bird had no feathers at fucking all, hard as an iron bar and jerking off like a one-man fucking machine. Thom glanced up at Aaron and held his finger to his lips. He might as well have saved himself the trouble. Aaron couldn’t have moved or spoken if he’d wanted to. He could only gape at Cody because this was truly stare-worthy. There was a sort of trainwreck effect at work here. Only it wasn’t so much a disaster as… Jesus, Aaron didn’t even know. The one thing he was sure of was that the guys had been right about Cody. He knew what he was doing, and enjoyed it. His eyes were slit open just wide enough to

keep them locked on a camera, the quirk of his lips so dirty that Aaron would have been embarrassed if he hadn’t been downright impressed by that level of come-fuck-me. Though Aaron had known it on a casual back-of-his-mind sort of level, he saw now that Cody had the body for this kind of work too, gleaming with a thin layer of sweat, lean muscles tensed, a red flush spreading over his chest just under the collarbones. As for other natural endowments, he certainly had the -Aaron slapped a hand over his mouth to keep from blurting out an obscenity that’d spoil the video. Jesus Christ. If he’d known Cody was packing that in his boxers, he’d have -You’d have what? Cody groaned, a surprisingly deep and throaty noise, and spread ’em wider. His fist sped up, almost a blur on his cock that Aaron could not look away from. He tossed his head from side to side and panted; raised his hips and fucked his fist and the air. “Yeah,” he started to chant. “Oh God, yeah, yeah.” He slipped a hand under his balls and rolled them, squeezed them, arched higher and whined. “Almost there. Fuck.” Aaron swallowed hard on a dry throat. He still couldn’t turn away. Camera lenses whirred discreetly. Aaron guessed Thom would know when a guy was on the verge of blowing his load. Not that Cody didn’t try to spin it out, pinching his nipples and slowing his strokes, breathing like a freight train and leaning back until the chair was in dire risk of tipping over. Then, Cody opened his eyes. As luck would have it, Aaron realized at that precise moment that he was now in Cody’s direct line of sight, standing like a frozen dummy in the doorway with his mouth hanging open. He couldn’t think of a single thing to say, or do, and waving “Hi!” seemed really, really inappropriate somehow. He licked his lips instead. “Fuck.” Cody grabbed his dick and squeezed, but there was no stopping it now. Splashes and drops of come landed as high as his collarbone, as low as his bellybutton, basically everywhere. He groaned and curled forward and got himself once on the chin.

And through it all, Cody never once looked away from Aaron, not until he stopped coming and petted his dick to calm it down. Heaving for breath and still somehow grinning cockily at the camera. All in a day’s work. Aaron kept his cool until Cody licked the drop of come off his chin. Then, he reached down without thinking to adjust himself and take some of the pressure off. Oh, my God. When had… he was as hard as fucking diamond, and he’d gotten that boner watching Cody. Aaron wanted to turn and run. Problem was, he still couldn’t move. “Great work, Cody.” Thom, the ever-helpful, turned the cameras off and already had a damp washcloth at the ready. He patted Cody on the shoulder and pushed the cloth into his hand. “Excellent job. Go hit the showers and meet Katherine back in the office where she’ll cut you a check.” “That means I’m hired?” he heard Cody ask, slow and fuzzy around the edges. Aaron could have gone the rest of his life without knowing what his best friend sounded like when he was fucked-out to the point of satisfaction overload. Honest. “If you’d like to continue working with us, we’re glad to have you,” Katherine said with the soft click that turned off her handheld -- her palm -Aaron wondered how much it would hurt if he banged his head against the doorframe, and almost went for it. He might have, if Cody hadn’t started to chuckle. “Think I’ve got my first big fan,” he said lazily. That’d freeze a guy in his tracks, boy howdy. Especially since it was true. Katherine’s hand was suddenly there, resting on Aaron’s elbow. The woman moved like a freakin’ ninja. “Could I have a word with you?” It was the same tone of voice a principal might use to ask a bad boy to step into her office, and Aaron was as helpless to resist as he would have been in high school. Also, Cody had stood up and started to wipe cooling come off his chest and stomach and hey, an excuse to split didn’t sound half bad. Or half good, either, but that was his problem. “Yes, ma’am.”
Chapter Three Katherine nudged Aaron into the hallway and shut the door behind them. “Ma’am is my mother, Aaron,” she said. “Call me Katherine.” Looking down at Katherine, at her shiny dark hair and her bright smile and, yes, her fucking fantastic rack, Aaron thought he ought to have been fantasizing about her instead of unable to wipe away the mental image of Cody shooting his load. “Yes, ma’am. Katherine.” “Not to be crude, Aaron, but I’m afraid I couldn’t help noticing you enjoyed the show.” Aaron choked. “It’s all right.” Katherine patted his hand. “It’s a natural biological reaction to sexual stimulus.” How long could one woman keep her cool? She’d started to remind Aaron of the Cheshire Cat. “If you’ll allow me to be blunt, Aaron, I’d like to ask if you’d be interested in working for us too.” “Excuse me?” Katherine nodded back at the closed door. “It’s not an offer I make often, but it seems you two already have a lot of chemistry to work with. Our viewers enjoy the sight of friends comfortable enough to enjoy their sexuality in one another’s presence.” “What? No way,” Aaron protested. “We’re friends. That’s it.” Katherine dimpled at whatever expression Aaron knew he must have been making. “No problem, Aaron, and no pressure. I do still think you have what it takes to be one of our stars, so I’ll just give you my card.” Aaron found a small rectangle of cardboard tucked in his hand without knowing how it had gotten there.

“Take your time and see how the idea feels to you. If you decide you’re interested, give us a call. If not, we wish you good luck in any other paths you choose to pursue.” Katherine offered him her hand. She still had a good handshake, smooth and cool and firm. “You can wait outside for Cody if you’d like.” Aaron knew a dismissal when he heard one. Trouble was, he wasn’t sure if he was relieved by that or not, and by damn he was still hard enough to drill a hole through bricks. And his erection had nothing at all to do with Katherine. Damn.
*** Aaron spent five or ten minutes in the nearest bathroom that didn’t boast cameras and frighteningly roomy showers, braced on a sink and staring into his own eyes. Calm down. Breathe. He wasn’t sure he managed the feat, but he did manage to marshal his thoughts together in more-or-less raggedy order. By the time Aaron emerged and found his way out the front door, Cody had beaten him there. So had a handful of the other guys, Dylan and Maddox and Ross and someone Aaron hadn’t met yet, tall as a water tower and solid as a brick shithouse. A guy like him should have had a face like a grizzly bear, but this one managed to look like he belonged in a museum somewhere. Lucky for Aaron, there was a great distraction at hand. Cody lay on his back in the grass, rolling and wrestling with a puppy the size of a breadbox. Cute little bugger. It nipped at him and flailed with all four fuzzy paws when Cody picked it up and held it over him. When he lowered it carefully to his chest, the puppy barked in what sounded like “I am the king!” victory. It snagged a collar’s worth of T-shirt with its baby teeth and tried to drag Cody off stage left. “You gigantic dork,” Aaron said, unable to stop grinning. “Cute overload, huh?” asked Dylan from where he lounged on the steps. “And then some.” Aaron crouched and held out a hand for the puppy to trot over and sniff. “Is he yours?”

“Nah, he’s Katherine’s,” Dylan said. “She’s training him up to be a watchdog for Steel Mill. I guess that means he is sort of mine. C’mere, you.” Dylan scooped the baby dog up and passed him to Aaron. “His name’s Smutpuppy.” Aaron groaned. “Figures.” The puppy wriggled free of Aaron and made a yelping beeline straight back to Cody, who let him play chew toy with his hand while scratching behind Smutpuppy’s pointy ears. “So I guess you’ve got your second biggest fan,” Aaron called to Cody. Whatever was going on inside Aaron’s head, well, that was his to deal with. Cody did fit in here. Cody could be happy, and he was in good company. What kind of asshole would Aaron be to question that sort of luck? Dylan’s silent approval warmed Aaron, but Cody’s surprise that morphed into an excited and relieved delight -- that was what made it all better again. Cody rolled up to his knees, careless of grass stains and dirt, even though his hair was still wet from his shower, and blazed his brightest grin at Aaron. That’s my boy. Aaron nodded to Cody. We’re cool. Cody pumped the air with his fist. “Fuckin’ A. Hey, let me introduce these jokers. That’s --” “We’ve met,” Aaron said, taking the steps at an easy ambling pace. “No kidding?” Cody squinted up at him, the sun in his eyes. “Yeah, we shot some hoops earlier.” Aaron shrugged like it was no big deal, and to be honest, it became a smaller and smaller issue by the minute. How had the guys put it earlier? They’d been talking about Katherine and Thom, but the words still held true. “This could work out for you.” “No more wariness?” Cody asked. “I maintain reserve, but if this is what you want, I’m not standing in the way,” Aaron said. I don’t know -- I’m not sure if it’s what I want, but where you go, I follow. He’d think about that later. For now, he offered Cody a hand up. “You got paid, so you’re buying me dinner on the way home. Deal?”

Cody looked as happy as a kid on Christmas morning yet simultaneously as giddy as a freshman at his first kegger. “You’re lucky I put out on the first date. Deal.” Behind him, Aaron heard Dylan trying not to laugh, and failing. Oddly enough, it didn’t bother him at all.
*** “Give me a pound.” Cody held his fist out for Aaron to bump knuckles with, but what kind of friend would he be if he didn’t take absolutely every chance to rag on the guy? “Not so fast. I know where that’s been.” “Only by reputation. The boys been talkin’ about me again?” Cody sighed contentedly and laced his hands behind his head, nearly braining Aaron. “You’re lucky you’re as pretty as you are smug,” Aaron muttered. “Huh?” Cody asked. “Nothing,” Aaron amended hastily. Yeah, that’d work. Sure. Cody’s grin turned lazy and alarmingly -- kind of alarmingly -- okay, maybe not that alarmingly -- sensual. Aaron hadn’t had much experience with getting eye-fucked by a guy before Cody started working for TwentySomethingTwinks.com. Now, it was as familiar as a wink and a nod, and not just from Cody. Maddox, Ross, Dylan, and even the big guy -Gabriel -- hit on Aaron as easily as they hit on Cody. You name the guy and he’d flirted with Aaron at one time or another during the last month. It still struck Aaron as strange how quickly it’d stopped bothering him. And how it’d started again almost immediately thereafter, but in a different way. The men of TwentySomethingTwinks seemed to be waiting for something. Aaron hoped to God they weren’t playing the waiting game for him. Like he’d hop on board the dark side, where they had the good beer and cookies shaped like dicks. Cody gave Aaron another good once-over designed to rile him, and laughed when Aaron glared sideways. “C’mon. You can’t tell me this isn’t the life. You’ve seen my paychecks, right? All that and an awesome crowd of co-workers. What’s not to love?”

“You love getting bent in half and pounded like a hammer?” Cody drew his tongue slowly across his lower lip. “Hell, yeah.” He packed so much heat into two words that Aaron’s grip slipped on the steering wheel. “No one’s filming, Cody. Knock it off while I’m driving. Which, by the way, remind me, how does this work again? Why am I still chauffeuring your ass?” He tried to pinch Cody’s cheek without looking and ended up sticking his finger in Cody’s ear. Damn. If only he’d thought to wet it down first. “Because you own the truck, and I only beg you for a ride when Dylan isn’t working the morning and can’t swing by to pick me up.” True enough, and it wasn’t like Aaron minded. Sort of. “There are enough zeroes on your check that you’re buying me a tank of gas for this,” he pretended to grouch. “And lobster. And a sixty-freakin’-inch plasma TV.” “In your dreams, and my wet dreams.” “Dude. Gross.” Cody laughed quietly to himself. He’d been doing a lot of that lately. Somewhere along the way he’d lost the vague, fuzzed-out sense of being lost in his own world. He seemed easier in his own skin, comfortable with his body. Confident. Aaron wasn’t sure if his problem with that was that Cody had found his combo of Ritalin and Zen in doing amateur porn, or that four-plus years of shepherding the guy around hadn’t done a fraction of the good accomplished in four week’s worth of porn. He white-knuckled the steering wheel and exhaled heavily. “What’s up, Aaron? You’re all tense.” “Nah, I’m good.” So not talking about this with Cody. “Why’d you want the pound?” “One-month anniversary,” Cody said. He sat up straighter. They’d almost reached the studio. The eagerness with which Cody watched the roads made Aaron uncomfortable in ways he couldn’t describe. Not bad ways, just…

“You know, I wondered at first why TwentySomethingTwinks operated in the sticks,” Aaron said, trying for casual. He honked at the cows as they passed the pasture. “Then I figured it out. Out here, no one can hear you scream.” “If we’re doing it right, hell yeah.” Cody propped his elbow on the window ledge and turned to look at Aaron instead of the side streets. “I heard Katherine offered you a job. You been thinking about it?” Aaron held up a hand to ward him off. “Do not go there.” “What? I’m just saying. It’s the best thing that’s happened to me, Aaron.” “Drop it.” Aaron gritted his teeth. He was happy for Cody, sure, but this life wasn’t for him. Honest. Cody made a hmm noise and let it go at that. For now. He’d picked up the same sense of waiting the rest of the TwentySomethingTwinks guys carried so easily. Aaron realized that what bothered him most was that the waiting didn’t bother him as much as he thought it should have. Surprised stupid, he almost missed their exit. Cody elbowed him. “Hey! Left turn here.” “Sorry, sorry.” Aaron kept his lips zipped during the remainder of the drive. When they reached the edge of the studio property, Cody patted Aaron’s knee, and was out of the truck almost before they’d pulled to a complete stop. Aaron had to hammer on the brakes so he wouldn’t roll over Cody’s foot. “Assface!” he yelled after Cody, watching Cody barrel-run into Ross and Gabriel and Dylan. Ross waved at him. “Chill out, we’ll take good care of your boy like always.” “He’s not --” Aaron rubbed his face. They hadn’t even waited to hear his retort. Ross collected Cody into his arms and planted a kiss on him that the silver screen only wished they could get away with. Soaring violins belonged in the background with a kiss like that. Behind Gabriel, Dylan wrapped his arms around the guy’s waist and laid his lips on the back of Gabriel’s neck. All of them had it, the something different that

bound this motley crew together. That’d wound Cody in easy like catching a fish and changed him. Made him happy. In that moment, Aaron knew he was fighting a losing battle. If just watching this made Aaron want to think again about taking Katherine up on her offer… maybe it was about time he relearned how to open his mind to new possibilities.
*** It had to be five ‘o clock somewhere, right? Aaron swigged a hefty gulp of beer, the good stuff thanks to Cody’s paycheck, and paced past the laptop he’d left open on the honest-to-God actual breakfast nook they’d replaced the old card table with. He very deliberately did not look -- okay, for more than a second -- at the splash page for TwentySomethingTwinks.com, with Dylan and Cody snuggled together gazing into one another’s eyes. Christ, who’d have thought Cody would have had the focus to stare that intently at someone? It seemed almost like Cody could see Dylan’s soul somewhere down in there, and he liked it. Aaron looked away and drained the beer. I don’t have to. He could close the web browser and play solitaire. Screw that. He took in a deep, fortifying breath and clicked on the “Yes, I am over 18, enter” adult content warning. Welcome to TwentySomethingTwinks.com. Cody had a free membership to the site as long as he worked for Katherine, so there was no problem with payment. There were, on the other hand, a shitload of links with the names of guys he knew and liked off-duty combined with descriptions of bizarre sexual positions. Aaron hovered the pointer over another photo of Cody, just Cody. Almost all the way at the bottom of the list, a month old, the file description was labeled simply “Interview.” Probably the best place to start, right? He’d already watched this one in real-time anyway, and he’d coped just fine. Sort of. Shut up, he told himself.

As he started to click the mouse slipped up a link and hit the wrong one. Aaron tried to backtrack and instead managed to hit “play” on the vid titled “Cody And Dylan: Cody’s First BJ.” Curse you, butterfingers. No preliminaries with these videos. They got right to the action, and one-pointfive seconds later Aaron was watching Cody sprawled out on a bed with Dylan kissing down Cody’s chest and rubbing his palm over Cody’s could-not-miss-it hard-on. Aaron coughed and shifted in his chair. On screen, Cody had knotted his fingers in Dylan’s hair and pulled him up to attack his mouth. Whoa. Aaron had only ever seen hardcore tongue action like that in porn -- which, okay, this was, but that was his guy getting tonsil-fucked by a tall, ripped sort-of-stranger and that made all the difference. It was disturbing. Wrong. Aaron fingered the button on his fly. Wrong and hot. Dylan knew what he was doing and then some, working Cody over and making him moan and writhe like a cat in heat. They kissed like they were starving for it, and all the while their hands were everywhere. Cody dragged his nails down Dylan’s back. Dylan purred, a dark, sinful sort of sound that made a chill run up Aaron’s spine and heat streak down to his cock. On-screen, Dylan kissed and licked his way down Cody’s body again. Cody let him this time, spreading his legs to make room for Dylan, only his hands on Dylan’s shoulders to guide him. A red blush spread over Cody’s chest from neck to nipples, and he was already humping up into Dylan’s skilled hand. Aaron stroked his cock. He hesitated with his thumb almost at the head. Exactly when had he whipped it out, again? He forgot the question when on-screen Dylan flicked open the button on Cody’s jeans and drew the zipper down with his teeth. Holy fuck, you mean people can actually do that without breaking something? Aaron gripped his cock and started to work himself nice and slow. His breathing fogged the screen and he moved back fast so he wouldn’t miss any of the action. Only because this was, uh, research. That was it. Research. Dylan had moves, and what guy didn’t need to learn from a skilled craftsman?

Especially when that guy could make Cody whimper so sweetly when he took Cody’s cock, hard and ready, into his mouth and went down like he was starving and this was the only food he cared about. Dylan held Cody’s hips on the bed, the sheets runched up in a tangled mess. Cody whined and reached backward to grab the slats on the bed’s headboard and hang on for dear life. Dylan chuckled, licked the head of Cody’s cock, and fondled his balls. A quick-cut -- some small edit in there that Aaron bristled over -- what had he missed? -- and they were back in action. Oh, hello, Dylan’s bare-ass naked now too. Admittedly, he had a great ass, taut and firm, and Jesus Christ he was a monster if that meat hanging between his thighs wasn’t special effects added in post-production. Aaron didn’t think so. Not when Cody lit up like a Christmas tree and reached for the one-eyed snake. Dylan threw his head back and moaned low and long and throaty. Quick-cut. They seriously needed to knock it off with the splicing. The jolt interrupted a guy’s rhythm, though the start-stop-start did add a good erratic pace that’d make this last all the longer. Somewhere, very vaguely in the back of Aaron’s mind, he wondered when he’d stopped caring about perving on his best friend getting blown by a guy he’d whipped at basketball last month and started reveling in how damn good this felt, and how hot it was. He decided he didn’t care, at least not right now. He spat on his hand to slick it up and get back to the good stuff. The new camera angle was of Dylan kneeling over Cody, feeding his… “Whoa.” Aaron’s hand stuttered on his dick, aching hard and ready to go off. He held his breath. On-screen. Dylan slid his cock into Cody’s mouth. Cody moaned, took it all in, and begged for more with his urgent pulls on Dylan’s hips. “Yeah,” Dylan breathed. He didn’t say much, but he didn’t need to. “Gonna take it?” he asked, stroking Cody’s bulging cheek with his forefinger. He slipped that finger

between Cody’s lips, next to his cock, then pulled it out and sucked it into his own mouth. Oh, God. Close, so close. Aaron gritted his teeth and tried to hold off. Felt too good. Had to make it last. On-screen, Dylan started to fuck Cody’s face, slow at first, easy did it, then harder, faster, and Cody took it all like a champ. The camera got a good shot of Cody humping the air, his cock painfully dark and shiny-wet. Aaron fucked his own fist. Faster, faster, faster -Dylan slid his cock out of Cody’s mouth and Aaron groaned. “You fucker, go back to --” Oh. Dylan tapped Cody’s lips with his cock, made Cody chase it with his tongue, and started to pump his shaft double-quick-time. His chest hitched, his shoulders bunched, and he tossed his head from side to side. Tendons corded thick in his neck. “Fuck, fuck, God, Cody,” Dylan panted. “Yeah,” Cody said, an octave lower than normal, his voice fucked-out raw. “You know what I want. Gimme.” Dylan bit his lip hard enough to leave white dents in the kiss-swollen flesh and groaned as if the noise was being torn out of him along with the payload. He shot on Cody’s face, on his mother-loving face, thick streaks on his cheeks and nose and lips. Beneath Dylan’s flexing ass, the camera got a good shot of Cody jerking himself off hard and fast, groaning as if he were dying, and it got him directly in frame when he shuddered still and shot, splashing Dylan’s ass with his come. Aaron didn’t know what he shouted when he came thick and messy over his hand, only that the neighbors started pounding on the walls and that he wrung his balls dry before it stopped. He collapsed on one arm, the table barely holding him up, staring at Dylan licking the come off Cody’s face, Cody tipped up like a kitten eager to be groomed. He did not have this kind of recovery time, but damn if he didn’t want to go again. Now.
Chapter Four Aaron deliberately waited to make the call after 5:00 pm, when he could be sure Katherine wasn’t going to be at her desk and he could leave a nice, safe message that he could, if he wanted, pretend later had been a classic case of drunk dialing. He bit his nails absently as he waited through three rings. On the fourth, when he realized despite having washed his hands twice he could still taste a faint trace of his own spunk, the phone clicked. “Hello, Aaron,” Katherine said. Aaron swallowed a dollop of saliva and choked. Katherine laughed. “Are you all right?” “Fine,” Aaron wheezed. He thumped his chest. “Uh, wow. Didn’t think you’d be there. How’d you know it was me?” He winced. Smooth. “Caller ID. Cody’s still in the showers here and I took a guess.” Aaron could almost see Katherine’s calm, sisterly smile, and that was so not an image he wanted in his head when he was working up the courage to say -- “I was thinking about the offer you made. Back when Cody first started. About, you know, me…” “I’m glad to hear that,” Katherine said. Jesus, would anything phase this woman? “What are your thoughts?” Now or never, Aaron. He shut his eyes tight and blurted it out almost as one single word instead of a half-dozen. “I’d like to come in and do an interview if that’s still on the table.” “That’s wonderful.” Genuine appreciation from her end. “We’ve had several of our staff express interest in working with you.” “Say that again?”

“It shouldn’t come as a surprise, Aaron. You’re a friendly, personable young man who’s developed a good rapport with our stars.” Which translated to possibly Brandon, Maddox, Ross, Dylan, and even Gabriel, or one of the others, had come up to Katherine and asked for a chance to fuck Aaron. Holy… Maybe even Cody had asked for it. Aaron’s throat was dry now but damn if it didn’t try to constrict again and suffocate him. He licked his lips. “Wow. That’s something.” A thought occurred. “Wait. They were interested, but you didn’t call me again to say so?” “That’s not how we work,” Katherine said. “Anyone who chooses to accept a position here does so on their own accord, without coercion.” An honest business owner. Wonders never cease. Not that Aaron hadn’t known Katherine was awesome that way from how Cody never stopped praising her -- except when he was humming to himself and fingering certain bruises and love bites Aaron tried really, really hard not to fixate on. He’d never succeeded at that particular ploy. “I’m making the choice. I’d like a chance to get on board.” “We’d love to have you audition.” Aaron heard papers rustling on Katherine’s end of the line. “Before we set up a time, I do have to ask what made you change your mind.” Aaron slid his finger between his lips, searching for the elusive taste. Thought about that flavor coming from Dylan, or Ross, or… God, even from Cody. His cock started to rise again. “I think I’m officially bi-curious now,” he said, simple and honest and terrifying. “I watched a couple --” couple dozen “-- videos and, yeah.” Except that was only part of it. Aaron had come to the understanding, somewhere in between watching Maddox dissolve Cody into a whimpering, melted mess of sexual energy and Cody sandwiched between Dylan and Ross, all three loving it. He’d had to jump in a shower after the double penetration vid with Ross and Maddox and Cody.

It wasn’t the sex, though, damn, it’d be enough to make a Bedouin monk jump on board the gay train if it netted you those kinds of orgasms. It was mostly the camaraderie Aaron couldn’t not see amongst the guys. No matter what they were doing, whether fucking in one of those roomy showers or on the sand in a small volleyball court, every last guy had a smile on his face and a casual, easy-breezy sense of friendship and, hell, family that Aaron hadn’t known he was crazy-lonely for until he saw it. He might even call it love, but you couldn’t love more than one guy -- girl -animal, vegetable, mineral, whatever -- at the same time. Could you? Did he? A discreet cough reminded Aaron that Katherine was waiting for him to go on. “I want to see if I can belong there,” Aaron said. It was all that he had left. It seemed to be enough for Katherine. He heard her flip another page in her schedule calendar as she said, “We actually have an opening tomorrow afternoon. Is that too soon for you?” “No,” Aaron said, sharper than he’d meant. Hell yes, it was too soon, but that wasn’t a bad thing. Less time to change his mind. “Tomorrow’s fine.” “One ‘o clock? Cody doesn’t start until noon. You can share a ride with him.” “Sounds great,” Aaron said. “Wonderful. We’ll see you then.” “Looking forward to it,” Aaron said. He felt a tremble of excitement as if it was Christmas and his birthday and graduation day all rolled into one. His hands were freakin’ shaking. Only one more slight hurdle to jump. “Let me be the one to tell Cody?” “Of course.”
*** One o’clock in the afternoon the next day, and Aaron felt less like a confident adventurer and more like a total idiot. That, and a host of other feelings all made his stomach tight. Slightly uncomfortable with Katherine sitting across the way from the

bed he’d propped himself up on, and Thom scrutinizing him through the lens of an obscenely expensive piece of equipment. He tried to distract himself by watching Jake, quietly working away on whatever kind of notes he took during filming. Aaron wasn’t sure how he felt about the guy. Shy, Jake kept to himself -- except when sitting in on sex scenes as an impartial, contractapproved observer. Aaron had yet to hear him say a word out loud. The other guys were cool with Jake, though, so… “You seem nervous,” Katherine noted. “Would you prefer it if I stayed outside during the interview process?” Aaron could have collapsed with relief. It wouldn’t have hurt. The impressively well-padded headboard he’d propped himself against was built for heavy-duty body slamming. “Yes. Please,” he said. “It’s not that I’m freaked that you’re a woman, it’s just…” Liar, liar, pants on fire. Oh, boy. He trailed off, lost for the right words. “It’s all right. I don’t take it personally.” Katherine spoke a few quiet words into her Bluetooth and nodded. “I wish you the best of luck, Aaron, but I’d like for you to know I have every confidence in you.” “I’m glad one of us does,” Aaron mumbled. His palms were sweaty and he couldn’t stop rubbing his feet against his ankles one after the other. Focus. Aaron wiped his hands on his jeans. I can do this. I want to. With Katherine gone, Thom got right down to business. “If you’re ready to begin, Aaron, we can start any time.” Aaron trusted himself with a nod. Cody does this all the time, and good God, do I ever know he loves it. I don’t want to be left behind. I want what he’s found. I want him. Fuck. Admitting that to himself was as frightening as Aaron had thought it might be. Possibly more so. “We’ll ease you into it,” Thom said. Aaron had heard some of the guys joke around calling him “Father Thom” on account of his persistent Zen calm. “Our viewers enjoy a little getting to know you first. How about a few questions?”

Aaron couldn’t help but notice that the cameras were already rolling. Showtime. “Works for me,” he said. “Good. Let’s start with you telling us your name, and how you came to be interested in working with TwentySomethingTwinks.com…”
*** Aaron didn’t feel any less like a dork by the time Thom had run through the set questions and had him pose first shirtless, then shoeless, then jeans-less, but now it was time for the last barrier to come down. Literally. “Kinda like strip poker,” he tried to joke, thumbs tucked under the waistband of his boxers. “In a way, except we all win,” Thom said. “If you’re ready, let’s see what we have to work with here. Cody’s built up our expectations.” “Yeah, well. Cody talks a good game.” Aaron pulled his boxers down in a surprisingly -- to him, who’d expected to fumble -- smooth move and kicked them off. Heat rushed into his cheeks, because though he’d tried to think sexy thoughts and remember how into all this the other guys got, his cock remained flaccid. Thom paused the camera. “We have some magazines or videos if you’d like a little inspiration,” he offered, sounding like a flight attendant for Pansexual Airlines. “Don’t be embarrassed. It happens sometimes.” “No.” Aaron rubbed his face. “I can do this, I promise.” “Are you sure?” Thom leaned forward, resting his arms on his knees. Aaron kind of wanted to punch him for being so freakin’ nice. “We can stop any time.” “I said I could do this,” Aaron growled. He lay back, closed his eyes, and counted his breaths one by one. Brandon had done this in his first solo vid, and it’d worked for that twink, so why not him? I’m a twink. Un-fucking-real. Aaron reached for his cock and fondled the length. At first, nothing, but then he hit that one magic spot that never failed, that he forgot about every time until he found it anew, and he gasped quietly. Yeah, yeah, that’s what I’m talking about. He kept it light and easy, quick flashes of the vids he’d watched flickering behind his eyes.

Getting there, but it’s not enough. Aaron tilted his head back on the soft pillows and searched for something better. Tits didn’t seem right to fantasize about here, and the suck-and-fuck jerk-off fodder that’d run twenty-four-seven in his head still didn’t do the trick. What do I need? He ran his hand over his chest and found one nipple, flat and smooth. Rubbed his thumb over the areola until it puckered into a small tight nub and tingled with electric sparks of sensation. His cock jumped in his hand, getting fuller, getting longer. And then, though Aaron had almost gotten used to the attentive observation from camera, cameraman and Thom, he could have sworn he sensed something else. Something… more. He chanced opening his eyes and almost fumbled his cock, which jerked so sharply it nearly slid out of his grasp. They’d come to watch him. All of them, as far as Aaron could tell, crowded casually but encouragingly in the open doorway. Ross. Dylan. Maddox. Gabriel. Someone else new, who gave him a thumbs’ up. And in the front of the crowd, Cody. Cody, with his arms crossed and a look of fondness Aaron had never seen out of him. One he wouldn’t have thought Cody was capable of, though with this orgy’s worth of a cheering section coaxing him on, thinking wasn’t what he’d call easy. Aaron found himself rubbing down his stomach, kneading the abs he’d worked so damned hard on, fucking his thumb in the dip of his navel and imagining it was a guy’s tongue. No. He’d be honest about this. Imagining it was Cody’s tongue. Seemed wrong, yet right, and so good -- too good to turn away from. He lifted his cock and let it slap wetly, fully rigid, against his stomach. Met Cody’s eyes and held the gaze when he grasped the shaft again and drew his fist up the length, down again, and up. Aaron worked it harder, moved it faster. Sneaking peeks at first one guy and then another, and just like Cody, they all had one thing in their expressions as well as encouragement: desire. Hunger. Crazy for a taste of him. Aaron groaned and arched up to fuck his fist for all he was worth. His cock slid smoothly in his grip, slick with the precome dripping down the length. Yeah, he was

one of those guys you’d have to wear a scuba mask to suck down, unless you were into getting jizz all over your face -Cody licked his lips. Was he imagining the taste? Oh, God. Aaron keened and arched his back. All of a sudden he couldn’t get enough. He sped up, the mental images that hadn’t been enough before were now almost too much, too good, and elaborated on in his imagination. Aaron would have sworn he could feel them with him in the bed. Gabriel’s bulk weighing him down, trapping him in something he wouldn’t have wanted to get free of. Maddox’s wicked sense of humor. He’d tease Aaron by licking him all over, everywhere except his cock -- he’d wait for Aaron to beg before he gave in. Aaron’s breath caught when he flashed on the thought of Ross behind him, naked and hard, cock nudged up between his ass cheeks. That one was so vivid Aaron thought for a shocked half-second that it was real. He panted heavily when he opened his eyes. Close, God, so close he could taste it, and it didn’t seem stupid or awkward or uncomfortable anymore. Hot. Hotter than an Arizona heat wave. He couldn’t get enough air and he couldn’t think, his hand a blur on his cock and his toes curled hard as knots. An idea came to him, and he didn’t waste time thinking about it in case he changed his mind. He lifted his shaky legs and planted his bare feet flat on the bed, sprawled wide open. With fingers slickened by his own precome, he reached between his legs and searched for his hole. He only got the tip of one finger in before he had to stop or come right then, and the whole of his body shook like an earthquake from the effort of holding it off. The guys were murmuring amongst themselves, almost silent, not really words, more just encouragement. Aaron met Cody’s eyes through a haze of sweat and horniness, and read his lips: That’s my boy. Aaron spasmed, arched upright, and came harder than he’d come in his life. Striped himself with spunk war paint from collarbones to navel, one shot after another.

His balls burned with the effort to squeeze out more and he had to let go of his cock or die from over-stimulation. He collapsed on the bed, sucking for air and shaking hard. The cameras stopped rolling, and as soon as they did the cast and crew of TwentySomethingTwinks started to applaud. Aaron laughed, covered his face with his hands. I did it. I fucking well did it.
*** “Hey.” Cody had waited for Aaron outside the showers Thom directed him to after he’d called the scene a wrap. Everyone else had gone their own ways with one last pat on the ass or random smooch or a tug on his hair, all of them with congratulations and appreciation that left Aaron feeling as good and warm and satiated as the orgasm itself had. More than, maybe. No, not maybe. Definitely. His legs were shaky and he couldn’t quite walk in a straight line and he was floating somewhere higher than cloud nine. Cody leaned on the bathroom doorway, grinning at Aaron so smugly and appreciatively at the same time that Aaron wasn’t sure if he wanted to pop him one or get him in a headlock or just kiss him, once, soft and careful, to say “thanks”. “What’re you laughing at?” Aaron tried for brazen and almost made it to do me hard, big boy, and ended up by cracking up laughing himself. Cody tossed a wet washcloth at Aaron for him to wipe off the last traces of drying spunk. “Nothing, man.” “Uh-huh. Try again.” Aaron scrubbed at his chest. Damn. Stuff got stubborn when it’d had a chance to set. He peeled off a splotch and flicked it at Cody. Cody dodged, still cackling and smirking. He brushed off the flake of come, held his arms loose and easy by his side, and looked at Aaron in a way he never had before. “I’m proud of you,” he said. Aaron’s legs gave up the fight to stay locked and he stumbled. “Whoa, easy.” Cody caught Aaron and helped him back up. “It hits you that way, the first few times. It’s normal.”

Aaron held on to Cody a little longer than he would have any other day. Then again, this wasn’t anything like an ordinary day. He cleared his throat, to his horror sensed himself blushing, looked at the floor and mumbled, “Nothing to be proud of. It was just jerking off.” “But with style, my friend.” Cody slung an arm around Aaron’s neck and tweaked his ear. “You’re hired. I don’t even have to ask. They loved you, Aaron.” He hesitated. “Me too. Hey!” He slapped Aaron’s bare ass stingingly hard. “Shower. You reek.” Just like old times. Aaron basked in the glow and let it sink clear down to his bones. “I still don’t have much idea what I’m doing,” he admitted. “But you’re gonna keep doing it?” Aaron nodded and grinned loopily at Cody. “That’s my boy.” Cody pushed his head against Aaron’s and held them still for a moment. “Get cleaned up. Tell me -- would you rather laugh with the sinners than cry with the saints now?” “No more blushing virgins,” Aaron agreed. “I still reserve the right to tease the hell out of you for the noises you make when you’re getting fucked.” Cody snorted. “Bet you moo like a cow the first time someone plows you.” Damn. Reality crashed back in. Aaron faltered. Cody tried to make up for it, patting Aaron’s back. “One step at a time, Aaron. But you gotta know you’ve got what it takes. You do get that, right? Wouldn’t say it if I didn’t mean it.” I don’t know if I’ve got what it takes. But when Aaron thought back about what he stood to gain… all he knew was that he wanted to try. One day at a time. Until then -- “I want that steak dinner tonight, you dick. I earned it.” Cody snickered and gave Aaron a friendly push toward the shower. “Hell yeah, Aaron. You earned it.” “And Eggs Benedict tomorrow. In bed. And you’re cooking them for me.”

“Still a fair deal.” Was that a flicker of extra heat in Cody’s eyes, or did Aaron imagine it? “But that doesn’t mean I’m gonna stop eating my Trix with Dr. Pepper instead of milk. That’s damn tasty.”
Chapter Five “How do you like your burgers?” Maddox jabbed one of the Dagwood-sized meat blimps on the grill. He’d donned a “Fuck The Cook” apron that’d probably been designed for a gourmet “eat me out” scene. Also probably intended for a woman to wear. It figured that Maddox carried it off with style. Then again, Maddox could probably pull off the accompanying fishnet stockings, stiletto heels and frilly cap that’d go with the outfit and make the look work. Whoa. Even with everything that’d happened lately Aaron still wasn’t ready to entertain that kind of fantasy. Though if he were so inclined, there was an entire page of “role-playing kink” videos he hadn’t yet watched on the site and Maddox’s name figured in most of them… Maddox snapped his fingers in front of Aaron’s eyes. “Think fast, man, or your choices are gonna be ‘burned to a crisp’ or ‘charcoal’.” Aaron eyed the grill. “Any chance of charred on the outside but still bleeding in the middle?” He rubbed the back of his neck. “It’s funny, you know? I’m usually the one who keeps his head. I ask questions, I make sure bills get paid, I’m the one who owns a motor vehicle. I’ve looked out for Cody since college, and now I can’t keep it together long enough to ask for a damn burger. Is that messed up or what?” “Nah, not so much.” “If you give me a Zen shrug and tell me I’m coping with a lot, I will skewer you with your own barbecue fork.” Maddox snort-giggled. He carried that off with panache, too. Aaron would kinda hate Maddox if he hadn’t already fallen half in lo -- if he wasn’t such a kickass dude. Yeah, that was it.

Aaron held a soft sesame-seed bun out for Maddox to slap the meat between. He sighed. Maybe he should give up on trying to keep his mind free of double or triple entendres. It’d make his life simpler. Maddox grinned as if he knew exactly what Aaron was thinking. Even money said he did, with that weird sort of insightfulness the more experienced talent seemed to have. “Beers are in the cooler by Thom and Skyler.” “Thom and who?” “New guy. I think he’ll work out.” A softness played around Maddox’s expression. Aaron recognized that look with a startled twist in his stomach. It was how they’d looked at him when he started. Was this Skyler guy going to replace him? Should he care? Troubled, Aaron wandered off in search of beer. Frost-cold beer, perfect. Proof that God loved man and wanted him to be happy. Getting from Point A to Point B at a TwentySomethingTwinks barbecue wasn’t exactly easy, more like following one of those cartoon dotted-line labyrinths. Step over a lazily sunbathing stud here, sidle past someone trying to deep throat a Corona there, try not to stare at Ross and Gabriel going at it like they were going to strip down and fuck no matter who was watching. That was what Aaron still couldn’t wrap his head around, and by God he’d tried. The guys here didn’t keep it on camera. One big polyamorous family. They were closer in twos and threes, some of them, but there were no lines when it came to sharing the love. They lived the dream, all of them, and no one was jealous. No one threw punches. They seemed happy in their places. More than happy. Aaron wondered if maybe it wasn’t friendship he’d been seeing in all these guys. Maybe it was love. Aaron hadn’t comprehended that he’d stopped to watch Ross and Gabriel playing Grabby Hands Tonsil Hockey, or that he’d gotten hard in Pavlovian response. Not, that was, until Cody, his lips swollen from kissing, pounded Aaron on the back. “Not bad, huh?” he asked, tilting back his beer. He bit the lime and sucked.
Willa Okati

Aaron wondered what Cody’s mouth would taste like now. Bitter from the beer, sour-sweet with the lime. Would he still taste of himself under there, or would the flavors drown out everything else? “Try it and find out,” Cody suggested, almost too quietly to be heard. Aaron chose to believe he hadn’t gotten that one right. Friends, yes. Voyeurs, okay, he had to give them that. But fuckbuddies, friends with benefits, lovers? No. At least not yet. I want… Aaron shrugged and filled his mouth with a gargantuan bite of burger to prevent any stupid words from tumbling out. Cody hooted with amusement and squeezed Aaron’s bicep. “Chill, man,” he said, sounding more like his old self. “Relax and enjoy.” “People keep telling me that,” Aaron mumbled, but Cody was already gone, on his way to plunk down by Ross. Turned out at the end of the day, Ross went home with Maddox. It blew Aaron’s mind -- they had to have broken records as the oddest of odd couples. Ross, farm-fresh and scrubbed pink. Maddox, dyed and tattooed and pierced. Observing all of them, Aaron wondered… when he made another video, this time with one of the guys… who would it be? Did he want it to be Cody? If Aaron was gonna be honest with himself, yes. Did he want it to be with another of the guys? Maybe. If he’d had to swear with his hand on a Bible… yes. Aaron had spent sleepless nights trying to wrap his head around the situation, and gotten nothing more than dark circles under his eyes as a result. Dylan ambled up to join Aaron. They grunted at each other, good and manly, and clinked beer bottles. All peaceful and male, as if someone could loose a mighty burp or scratch their balls instead of kissing like they were trying to suck one another’s souls out. Which made Aaron a little nervous of what Dylan might have on his mind. At least Dylan said it around a giant bite of hamburger and sprayed crumbs in a messy arc when he piped up with, “Gonna do another vid?” “I think so.” “Just ‘think’?”

Aaron licked a smear of ketchup-and-mustard off his lips. “I’m interested, just… kind of all tangled up in my head.” “Only has to fuck with your head if you let it,” Dylan mumbled around masticated meat. He swallowed and chased his food with the last swig of his beer, his lips pink and shiny-wet and skilled on the mouth of the bottle. Aaron’s hard-on jumped.
“It can’t be this easy.”
“Why not?”
“Life doesn’t work that way.”
“It does for us.”
“But it’s not realistic.”
“Realism is way, way overrated, my man.” Dylan bumped shoulders with Aaron
and stayed there, leaning on him like a comfortable tree. “What’s really freakin’ you out about doing another vid?” Aaron found himself drawn to Cody. Watching him. “I don’t --” Hell with it. “I feel like I’m cheating on him, and we’re not even involved. Sort of not.” “You could be. But worrying about getting stuck with someone who’s not Cody, that’s what’s got you tied up in knots.” Put that way…”Yes,” Aaron said, relieved. Dylan shrugged. “Would you do me?” Aaron didn’t ask if Dylan meant that. Guys around here didn’t kid when it came to fucking. He took his time to chew that thought over. “Yes,” he said at last. “I would.” “Cool, then.” Dylan waved in Cody’s direction and shouted, “Hey! You mind if your boy takes a turn at me in a vid?” Aaron took back everything complimentary he’d ever thought about Dylan. He was going to kill the guy. Slowly. Messily. With extreme unction. Cody shaded his eyes with his hand and squinted at them. “If it’s cool by him, sure.” “That’s what I’m trying’ to figure out. C’mere.” Dylan waved Cody over.

After first kissing and then knuckle-rubbing Maddox’s head, Cody strolled to them and leaned on Aaron. Warm, hard, smelling like sunshine and lime and salt and other men. Aaron breathed deep and had to adjust his cock to take the pressure off. “You and Dylan,” Cody said after a moment’s thought. “That’d be crazy hot.” Dylan looked at Aaron instead of Cody when he asked, “And it wouldn’t bug you? Not in any way?” “I’d kick your ass, Dylan, if you didn’t make it good for him, and if he didn’t want it. Otherwise? Not really.” Aaron couldn’t have explained why that just made him more confused. “Aaron.” Cody took him by the hand, and it seemed perfectly natural, even right, for him to lace their fingers together in a quick squeeze. “I know you don’t get it all, not yet. But you’re trying, and that means the fucking world on a Goddamn silver plate.” “Yeah?” “Hell, yeah.” Cody planted a wet smack of a kiss on Aaron’s cheek. “Just go with it. They took good care of me, made me one of their own. They’ll do the same for you.” He blew beer breath into Aaron’s face, dodged Aaron’s swat, and ran away cackling, only to be tackled by Thom which, ouch. That had to hurt. Apparently, Cody didn’t mind when the new guy, Skyler, was ready and willing to kiss it better. “He’s right,” Dylan said, a low, rumbling whisper. “You can love more than one guy at a time. Not all of us, but some, we do. I know you’re in love with Cody. Trust me, he does too. It doesn’t have to be a huge hearts-and-flowers declaration. Shut up; just listen. Even if you don’t see it, the rest of the world does. Okay?” Aaron pressed the heels of his hands over his eyes. “God almighty.” “Trust us,” Dylan urged. “I’m not gonna force you. But I’ll ask again and again if I have to. You want this. Stop fighting it.” No. No. Yes.

Fuck it. Aaron tossed his half-eaten burger in the trash. “Think Katherine would get pissed if I brought up business during a barbecue?” “I sincerely doubt it.” “Yeah? Hope you’re right.” Aaron squared his shoulders. “Either way, I guess we’re about to find out.”
*** “We’re glad you’ve chosen to continue working with us, Aaron.” Katherine slid a crisp, clean, freshly-printed copy of a contract across her desk for Aaron to sign. “Sign here, here, initial here, and sign here.” She drew stars by the dotted lines. “If you’d like to read through it one more time --” “No. I’m good.” Aaron took a deep breath and reached for one of the pens in a TwentySomethingTwinks mug. His palms were too sweaty and he fumbled. Wiping his hands on his jeans, he tried to offer her an abashed smile. “Sorry.” “It’s okay.” Cody and Dylan, bookending Aaron, patted an arm each almost in sync. Aaron breathed out at the sensation of being touched. It felt as if they were transmitting waves of reassurance, and, okay, a hell of a lot of mutual desire through him and to him, lust included. “Am I ever gonna get used to this?” Aaron asked, though he wasn’t sure who, or if he spoke to all three at once. “We hope so,” Katherine said. “You are special, Aaron. This wasn’t what you’d planned on with your life, and we know you won’t be here with us forever.” “I didn’t --” Aaron started to protest. She waved him off with a fond laugh. “Let me finish. I’ve seen, more than once, the relationships that begin here go on long past the last time the camera stops rolling. I think there’s some kind of magic in being this honest and comfortable with your body. The trust it engenders binds some men together.” She spread her hands, then tucked them curled under her chin. “I think that could happen with you.” “You’re a matchmaker,” Aaron said, disbelieving.

“Lord, no. More a woman with a healthy appreciation for romance.” She raised one elegant shoulder. “What’s wrong with that?” Sometimes, especially these days, Aaron’s mouth moved without his permission. “How’d you get into this, anyway?” “Dude. Not cool.” Cody pinched Aaron’s leg. Ow. Bastard had serious gripping power. “Crossing the lines, there.” “Is it?” Aaron popped Cody hard on the arm. “Maybe it’s not my place to ask, but fucking hell, man, she’s seen enough of us that I think I should be able to put it out there.” “Cody, it’s all right,” Katherine said, still calm, still kind. “I was an adult film star in my early twenties.” Aaron’s jaw dropped. Katherine, naked and pretending to love it. Somehow he knew it would’ve been pretense. “How’d you… no. Why, after that, would you?” “I met Thom,” she said. “Also a film star. I was on my way out, almost too old for the job, and he was on his way in. We loved our work, but we wanted more.” A faraway look crossed her face, and suddenly Aaron could see past the faintest start of lines by her eyes and the gray hair or two she wasn’t trying to hide. “He was the first man I’d ever known who didn’t think I was a freak for enjoying watching gay movies. That’s rare, Aaron, even today, and back then?” She whistled. It made her seem far more human. Aaron, Cody and even Dylan were listening intently. So Dylan hadn’t heard this before either. “We were never in love. Thom appreciates a beautiful woman, but men turn his crank. We became good friends. The best. We saved our money and started Steel Mill Productions. That was six years ago, and we haven’t looked back since. And no, before you even think to ask, I am not telling you three our stage names back in the day. Not because I’m ashamed but because the movies were terrible.” Laughter smoothed her face and made her look as young as them again. “Let’s talk business.”

Aaron found it easier to breathe, easier still to relax. She’d been there. She knew. And she still loved the job. Okay, then. “Hang on a second.” He took a pen, no slipping this time, and scrawled his name on the dotted line. Katherine’s exuberance could have lit up Times Square during a blackout. “Thank you, Aaron,” she said. “And you, Cody.” Cody rested his head on Aaron’s shoulder. Someone stroked his back. Aaron thought it was Dylan, and though he expected it to be weird, it totally wasn’t. Maybe he could do this. He knew, now, that he wanted to. More than anything. “When do we start filming?”
*** “We’re just going to let you go where the mood takes you.” Thom checked the last of the camera angles and tapped the final ON button. “Filming now.” Aaron stopped with one knee on the bed, half-on and half-off. “Wait. You’re not going to be in here? No one is? Thom, or Jake --” “Not this time, no. We’ll be outside in case there’s any problem.” Thom walked backward, and though more solemn by nature than Katherine, he couldn’t quite hide his grin. “Somehow, I don’t think there will be. Good luck.” Easy for him to say. Aaron couldn’t seem to move. “Hey.” Dylan’s lips touched the back of Aaron’s neck as the door closed behind Thom. “Any time you really want to stop, all you’ve gotta do is say.” Aaron hesitated. He wanted to say no, don’t, I changed my mind, this isn’t me. He almost did. But then Cody was behind him too, one arm thrown over Aaron’s shoulders, his lips soft and his breath warm on Aaron’s ear. “You’ve wanted this for a long damn time, bitch. Don’t front,” he said, smelling like Fruity Pebbles and Dr. Pepper. That did it, more than the touches or kisses or encouragement, more than the eagerness Aaron could feel trembling through both Cody and Dylan. Those were just bodies, yeah? This was Cody. And that was Dylan, who wasn’t like Cody, but just as

good in his own way. Felt like he’d known both of them forever. Maybe Dylan wasn’t as tied to Aaron by the past as Cody was, but there was room for him in there. Aaron didn’t have to work up his nerve to turn to Cody, to push his fingers through Cody’s hair and fist them. To kiss Cody. First tentative, then harder. Cody moaned and parted his lips for Aaron. Aaron licked his way into Cody’s mouth and clutched tighter. He felt a rush of something like vertigo, then a wash of fire like an ocean wave. And then there was no more fear. Nothing but want and yeah, this is me, and I like it. Dylan nuzzled under Aaron’s ear. “Ready to go?” he whispered for Aaron and not the cameras to hear. “Hell yes,” Aaron said, loud and proud. He loosened his grip, though he didn’t take his hand away, and drew Dylan to him as he’d done with Cody. As he tasted Dylan’s mouth and kissed him deeper than he ever had with any woman, he felt Dylan sag against him and heard his groan, Aaron felt ten feet tall and better than bulletproof. They weren’t acting, and neither was he. “Get on the bed,” Aaron said, softly, but taking charge again at last. And they wanted him to. That was what made it perfect. “Let me in the middle.” Dylan raised an eyebrow at Aaron. That hadn’t been the plan. As far as the loose schematics had been laid out, Aaron and Cody were supposed to let Dylan be the buffer between them. Dylan specialized in transitioning new guys. Seeing as he spent ninety percent of his time playing counselor, Aaron could see how that’d come naturally to him. However you sliced it, Aaron knew that Dylan was there to help Aaron and Cody get past any awkwardness when push came to shove. But they didn’t need that, did they? Aaron had known it when he’d signed the contract and this, that kiss that’d lit him up like a brush fire, was all the proof he needed. “Do something for me,” Cody said as he and Aaron crawled into place, copping feels along the way and tangling their legs together while Dylan settled on the far side.

That was a definite wicked twinkle Aaron saw in Cody’s eye. “What’ve you got in mind?” He let himself sound as hungry for it as he really was. He laid his palm flat on Cody’s chest, then skimmed it up beneath his shirt to tweak one small, firm nipple. Cody hissed and reached down to rub his cock; he changed his mind after one firm stroke and took Aaron’s hand instead. He brought both down over Aaron’s cock. Aaron bit off a curse and arched at the feel of two hands, hard and male and strong, palming and teasing him. When they kissed, they crashed into one another with less finesse and more something like a collision, all tongues and teeth. Aaron shoved his hand down his pants and gripped the base of his cock. “Do you want me to blow before we even get started?” “Maybe.” Dylan, who Aaron had almost forgotten about, took the tab of Aaron’s zipper and drew it down. “I want to see you blow him,” Dylan said, his hands everywhere, his touch too-light and too-quick. “Cody’s mouth would look good on your dick.” Aaron froze, but not with fear. With the licking flame that was more than he could stand, yet not enough. He was drunk on the heat, like nothing he’d ever known before, and not in the least afraid. Damn, it felt good to let go like this. “Yeah?” “Oh, yeah,” Dylan murmured. He licked the underside of Aaron’s jaw, his softer stubble scraping Aaron’s throat. “Want to see you find out what it’s like. You want it, don’t you? Or maybe… what about the other way around? Do you want to get your mouth wrapped around his dick and find out for yourself what it was like for him?” He sat up straighter, the bulge of his cock distorting his jeans. “You want to suck him off while I watch.” Aaron licked his lips. “Then?” Cody was the one to answer as he settled down on his side, one arm and one leg draped over Aaron’s body. “Then I want you to fuck me.” “Holy sh-” Aaron knocked their hands away and ground the heel of his hand down hard. “Don’t fucking say things like that. I’ll come, I swear.”

“No problem, man. You’re coming more than once. I’ll make damn sure of that,” Cody promised. Good God, when had space-case Cody learned how to pack that much heat into one look and a handful of words? There wasn’t anything like this on the videos. Maybe, like now, you had to be there to really get it. And once you had, you’d crawl a mile just for the chance to get another taste. Okay, then. Dylan moved so he and Aaron were shoulder-to-shoulder, warm but not warm enough, the thin T-shirts they wore suddenly too much. Cody knelt within arm’s reach. Together, they formed a triangle. Close enough to touch, but far away enough for anyone to change their mind. Like hell. Except Aaron didn’t exactly know where to start. Fuck, he should have, especially after all he’d watched and jerked off to, but it was just different enough in real life to throw him. “Hey.” Dylan kissed the corner of Aaron’s mouth. Aaron shivered. Dylan’s lips were nothing like a woman’s. Soft, smooth and full, yes, but firmer, sexier. “You call the shots here.” He took Aaron by the hand, pressed that hand to his heart, then guided him to touch Cody in the same place. “Go with what you want.” “I want skin,” Aaron said, dry-mouthed and hoarse but sure. His fist bunched in Cody’s shirt. “All skin.” Cody drew his tongue over his lips and caught Aaron with his best bad-boy smirk; it was the same look he boasted whenever he challenged Aaron to see who could chug the most longnecks before they puked or dared him to run bare-ass naked through the street at four a.m. “You sure you don’t want to start small, Aaron?” “Uh-uh.” Aaron went for broke. If he was gonna do this the way he wanted, he’d damn well do it right, though it still shocked him just a bit when he slid his hand roughly down Cody’s chest and palmed his cock. “Is that for me?”

“Maybe.” Cody sprawled back on his elbows. He waggled his eyebrows at Aaron. “I think I heard Dylan give you some directions, big guy. Gonna play this nice or naughty?” “Both.” Aaron chose, in a split-second, not to think about this. “Just do it” worked no matter what you were advertising. He slapped Cody’s ankles. “Spread ’em.” Dylan laughed, quietly. He snuggled next to Aaron and touched the small of his back. “Shoes first. Socks. Nothing looks dumber than a guy with nothing but a hard-on, a smile, and a pair of gym socks.” Aaron tried not to snicker, and failed. Cody chortled. He flicked open the button on his jeans, drew the zipper down, and canted his hips up. “Put your money where your mouth is, or, y’know, put your mouth where the money is.”
Chapter Six “If you think that’s the only reason I’m doing this, you’re crazier than I ever thought you were,” Aaron said, and had the pleasure of seeing Cody’s pupils dilate, his breath quicken in the rise and fall of his chest. Good. Still didn’t mean he knew how to do this yet. Jesus, how did you get a guy’s jeans off him without zipper-burning his dick? Didn’t help that Cody had gone commando. “Like this,” Dylan said. He’d taken care of shoes and socks when Aaron wasn’t paying attention, and with those gone he slapped Cody’s hip, a good, loud, ringing smack that made both Aaron and Cody jump. They both moaned, maybe for different reasons, maybe not. “Lift your ass higher. Aaron, you scoot ’em off from underneath so you don’t catch anything.” Cody closed his eyes and hummed. He slid his hand under his shirt and pinched his nipples. Aaron had to see that. “Off,” he ordered, tugging at Cody’s shirt. “Sit your ass up.” “Gonna ogle me?” “You bet your fine dick I am.” Cody sat up as sweet and compliant as a guy could ask for, though he did waggle his tongue at Aaron, deliciously obscene. He raised his arms for Aaron to strip the shirt off. Wow. “Dude,” Aaron breathed, tracing the six-pack his lazy-ass friend now boasted. “When did this happen?” “When you weren’t looking,” Cody said. He lay back down and tucked his hands behind his head. He’d gotten harder, if that was even possible and Aaron didn’t think his eyes deceived him here.

“There’s a weight room set. We all use it after hours,” Dylan said. He’d sat back, kneeling, with his jeans open but his cock not yet out. Wild, how Aaron felt a twinge of regret at not getting to see. Hell, once in the deep end, what else did he have to be afraid of? Answer: not a damn thing. “Lift ’em,” he ordered Cody, low and ragged around the edges, the way he sounded when he was turned on. He palmed his own dick for the enjoyment of it. Almost hated to let go to pull Cody’s jeans down his legs, but then again, he got to see Cody’s cock so it was a decent trade-off. The breath whooshed out of Aaron’s mouth when he saw that meat up close and personal for the first time. Vids were vids, and vids were hot, but they so fucking didn’t compare to the real thing. Cody was bigger than he’d seemed on screen, a good length and a fat girth. The tiniest smear of precome slid from the head. He’d been cut. Aaron couldn’t help but reach out and trace the head, then slide his thumb up to wipe away the drop of precome. He slid his finger in his mouth and sucked. “Oh, fuck,” Cody moaned, slumping into the multitude of pillows. “You’re gonna kill me, here.” “Can’t have that.” Dylan nuzzled Aaron’s ear. Damn, he was a good sport. Aaron figured the plan had been for Dylan to be naked by now and getting some tender loving care from two guys, but he held it back -- mostly -- like a champ. Okay, so Dylan was naked, but he kept his distance and limited his moves to stroking his cock. He watched them eagerly and licked his lips. “Go for it, Aaron, he’s crazy to get your mouth on him. Always has been.” Aaron swallowed his pride. “I don’t know how.” “S’okay.” Cody took over. “Get your ass in here,” he invited as he spread ’em. Lots of room for Aaron to fit in that cradle. He tickled the back of Aaron’s neck, the short-cropped hair, and guided his head down. “Watch the teeth, and you can’t do it wrong. Promise.”

“Do it,” Dylan urged as he guided Aaron down and showed him how to hold Cody’s hips still. “He wants you.” Aaron knew that, mind-boggling though it might be, but he had to look at Cody one more time just to be sure. Cody’s smirk softened to something warmer, then heated into something that was X-rated all on its own. “Want it bad enough to beg,” he said. “I could beg, if that’d get you to hurry the fuck up already.” Aaron couldn’t help but laugh, his shoulders shaking as he got a good grip on Cody’s hips, lowered his mouth over Cody’s rigid cock, and sucked the head between his lips. Cody gasped and arched his back. He almost slid free of Aaron’s grip, and he almost thrust too deep. Aaron jerked away from the push and came off with something salty and slick on his lips. “Take it easy,” Dylan soothed the pair of them. He’d wriggled around to lie on his side, next to Cody. Not touching, but close enough to ground him. “I know you’ve wanted this a long time,” he whispered, probably just for Cody, but Aaron still heard. “Go slow.” “Not too slow,” Aaron said. The tiny taste he’d had wasn’t near enough. “Get back here.” He dipped back down and licked the head of Cody’s cock, amazed at how good the taste was, covered his teeth with his lips, and went for fucking broke. Okay, still slow, but with all his attention zeroed down to that one small -- okay, not small at all -- focus. This time, Aaron slid down slow and sweet, hanging on to Cody’s hips hard enough that he’d leave bruises. He didn’t think Cody would mind. Cody moaned and pinched his nipple, and threw his other arm over his eyes. Aaron barely noticed. God, this was all he’d half-dreamed about vaguely, and then some. How could skin be this soft, like tissue-thin suede, and so hard underneath? He weighed the heft on the flat of his tongue and slid down further. Cody filled his

mouth to bursting and it still wasn’t enough. He made a frustrated noise through his nose. “Damn, Aaron. Born cocksucker, aren’t you?” Dylan sat up and rested his hand on Aaron’s head. “You want it, take it.” Aaron groaned, shut his eyes, and let the flavor and weight in his mouth take over all his senses. He licked away every drop of salty taste and sucked harder. Drawing in his cheeks came to him without thinking about it, putting on the pressure, pushing his lips to the fat vein on the underside. Cody groaned, shaking with the effort not to flat-out fuck Aaron’s face. They’d try that later, Aaron decided. Right now he was the one in control, and with a heady rush he realized he liked it that way. He drew off, spit and precome dripping from his lips to be washed clean with his tongue, and looked sideways at Dylan. Dylan looked impressed. “Man, don’t stop now. I want to see the prodigy at work. Get to sucking.” “Now,” Cody added, hips bucking, cock in search of the warmth and wetness of Aaron’s mouth. Who was Aaron to say no to all three of them? He sank back down and filled his mouth with cock, solid, pulsing cock, and hummed his satisfaction. His jaw ached and his throat was already sore, but what he’d gotten still wasn’t enough. He suckled Cody’s cockhead and breathed through his nose, not willing to let go for a second. Because Aaron wanted to, he reached underneath to fondle Cody’s balls. Oh, yeah. Drawn up nice and tight. He moaned around his mouthful. “More,” Cody insisted, beating haphazardly at Aaron’s shoulders. He got a handful of hair and tried to pull Aaron up, then push him down. “You close?” Dylan asked. Cody nodded in a shaky jerk of the head, past talking. Aaron looked up through his lashes and saw Cody looking back at him, pupils blown wide with a ring of hazel

iris around them and his eyelids heavy. His thighs shook with fine tremors and his muscles flexed. “Money shot?” Dylan asked. He rubbed Cody’s arm. When Cody gritted his teeth and didn’t answer, he turned to Aaron and tweaked his ear to get his attention. “You don’t want to swallow, you better get off now. He’s gonna pop.” Hell, no. I want to taste this. Aaron pinned Cody down with all the strength in his arms and took Cody as deep as he could, then relaxed his throat -- he just knew how, like he knew how to breathe, no practice needed -- heh, maybe he was a born cocksucker, and he didn’t mind one damn bit if it always felt as good as this to have a dick in his mouth. He rode Cody’s dick up and down, faster and faster, never enough, crazy for more. Cody’s breathing hitched and he started to make desperate sounds, body writhing where Aaron didn’t pin him down. “Ahh, ahh, ahh!” Cody’s head tossed on the pillows. “Aaron -- Aaron --” The spurt of come that splashed the roof of Aaron’s mouth startled him. He pulled off out of surprise and caught the next shot on his lips, and damn, that was almost better. Going with his gut, Aaron pumped Cody’s cock with his hand and opened his mouth like a bird begging for more. Drank down every drop he could milk out of Cody and rubbed his balls to coax the last out of him. Cody went slack, his lips wet and parted, his eyes glassy. Aaron let his cock slip free with a wet pop and crawled up Cody’s body without thinking, only knowing he had to kiss Cody now. He found Cody’s lips as easy as he’d found Cody’s cock and licked his way into Cody’s mouth. Cody moaned, and though weak and dazed at first, came back like the pro he was -- only different, because it was them -- and devoured Aaron with his hungry kiss. Aaron had forgotten about the heavy throb of his swollen balls and the ache of his too-stiff cock. He moved to touch himself and take off the pressure, but then… no. Not yet.

He broke the kiss with Cody and, almost eyelash to eyelash and lip to lip, let the wickedness and impishness he was feeling sparkle through. He tilted his head in Dylan’s direction. “Such a good boy, isn’t he?” “And then some.” Dylan ruffled Cody’s sweat-damp hair. “What about the rest? Still up for fucking him?” Aaron kept his hand on his cock and his gaze on Cody. “That… and something else, too.” He laughed inside his head, a little crazily. If he was gonna go gay there was no point doing it halfway. He went for broke. Dylan never knew what hit him, but his shout rang to the rafters. Turned out Dylan’s cock wasn’t as fat as Cody’s but it was longer, and it made for a hell of a good mouthful. Aaron looked up to see Cody attacking Dylan with a kiss while Aaron himself sucked Dylan’s cock deep and lashed the firm flesh with his tongue. “Holy -- shit --” Dylan gasped, already shaking like a leaf. “He got plenty worked up watching us,” Cody said in between licking Dylan’s face and diving deep into his mouth. “Wanna tease, or wanna take the pressure off?” Decisions, decisions. Aaron might have considered it if the ache in his own balls hadn’t warned him he didn’t have too much longer to make up his mind or he’d go off and waste a good hard-on humping the mattress when he had something way better to fuck. The thought made Aaron jackknife up and grab his cock to stop himself coming from that. His groan opened his throat for Dylan to thrust deep. Fucking A. No gag reflex. I’m gonna be a star at this. “You are one lucky son of a bitch,” Cody mumbled before he went to work on Dylan’s mouth, and for good measure went after Dylan’s nipples too. Dylan caterwauled and surged up at both ends. Fair was fair; Aaron’s nips had never been sensitive at all and to his enormous surprise and pleasure, getting face-fucked felt damn good. He took it all happily. I wonder if… He rolled Dylan’s balls together.

Dylan yelped. Okay, not a good noise. Guess we’ve all got our own things, Aaron thought, remarkably philosophical with all things considered, and eased off. He held still in apology and let Dylan, once he’d gotten his breath, go to town. Swallowing seemed natural, so he went with it, only remembering the squeeze action that had to be going on when Dylan arched, yelled, and shot down Aaron’s throat. Wait, wait, wanna taste it! Aaron slithered free and caught the rest on his lips. He licked them clean, licked Dylan’s cock clean, and flopped over on his back, breathing like a freight train. Dylan had gone as limp and boneless as a rag doll. He stared cockeyed at Aaron. “You’re gonna make a fortune here,” he mumbled. “Better at that than a pro.” “I coulda told you that,” Cody informed Dylan. He kissed Dylan again, gentling him down. With Dylan stretched out between them, weak from pure satisfaction, Aaron shared a look of pride with Cody. “So I’m that good?” he asked, voice wrecked from the abuse his throat had taken, maybe a little shy again but alight with pride. “Dude, you were made to suck cock,” Cody said. He nudged Dylan aside. Dylan groaned but rolled away to give them room. He did lie on his side facing Cody. “Gotta see this,” he mumbled, still orgasm-stoned. He glanced down Aaron’s body and chuckled. “Do something about that before you explode, man.” Funny how easy it was to push his own crazy need to fuck to the back of his mind when he’d had his mouth full. Now, Aaron bit his lip and looked up at Cody. “Yeah?” he asked, needing to hear the answer even if he was already sure. “Been waiting longer than you think for this,” Cody answered, husky, pure sex. “Maybe not.” Cody grinned. “Good. So get up here already and fuck me.” Shoving his fingers up a guy’s ass, especially Cody’s, would have been gross a month ago, maybe even a couple of days ago, but damn, Aaron hadn’t known what it’d do to a guy. No one faked anything on TwentySomethingTwinks.com’s site.

He thought it had to be Dylan rubbing his back, because both Cody’s arms were looped around his neck, his teeth set into his lower lip and his eyes squeezed shut. Breathy, desperate sounds poured out of him when Aaron scissored his fingers open. More lube. Yeah, he knew Cody could take it, but Aaron still slathered it on as thick as he could. The last thing he wanted was to hurt his guy. Dylan chuckled, though still almost breathless, and grabbed Aaron’s wrist when he would have gone for the bottle again. “You’re gonna send him flying off the bed the first time you go deep,” he said as he took the lube away, trading Aaron a condom for it. Aaron tore the packet open and rolled the latex on fast. He rubbed his lube-slick fingers over the protection, not much, just enough to push him past the point of no return. “Fuck. Gotta. Now.” “Wait, wait, this first.” Cody pulled at him, and Aaron followed, all the way up to his mouth. Yeah. It was the most natural thing in the world, like coming home, to kiss Cody and slid his tongue over Cody’s, in and out, slow but mimicking what he wanted to do further south. So this was tongue-fucking. Christ, Aaron had in no way been a virgin, but what else had he been missing out on? “Do it.” Cody said, just like his old brazen self, though sharpened and softened both with crazy lust. He raised his knees and clamped them at Aaron’s sides. He’d gotten hard again, his cock jutting firm against Aaron’s stomach. “Yeah, man. Want it. Want you bad.” “So let me fuck you bad,” Aaron said. Moment of truth. He closed his eyes, steadied himself at Cody’s rim, and slid in. “Oh, God.” Tight. There wasn’t a word for how different this was. Smooth muscle that gripped him hard and didn’t let go. A cock that left slick trails along his abs when he thrust deep. Once wasn’t enough. More. More. More. Aaron set his teeth into his lips, squeezed his eyes shut, and fucked Cody fast, hard, tough; he’d have thought he was

hurting Cody except for his begging Aaron “Don’t stop, fuck, don’t ever stop, God, wanted this so long, you don’t even know -- fuck.” Cody heaved up, took Aaron deeper than ever, writhed like a crazy animal and spurted between them. Aaron held out longer than he’d have thought with that kind of friction and pressure, all the way through Cody’s coming and past the other side. Held it off for so long he thought, for one crazy panicked second, that maybe he wouldn’t be able to come. Then Cody set shaking hands on Aaron’s hips and struggled up to kiss him, deep and dirty. “Harder,” he rasped, lips on Aaron’s, tongue wet on his chin. “Give me all you’ve got.” Aaron knew he was spiraling out of control, desperate now. “Can’t --” “You can,” Cody insisted. He kicked Aaron in the small of the back. “Fucking do it or I’m gonna fill your gas tank with soda.” Aaron hiccupped a laugh, startled, and ohh, yeah, that did it. He surged forward as far as Cody could take him, then deeper, and he was off. He knotted his hands in Cody’s hair, ate at Cody’s mouth, and shuddered his way through coming harder than he’d come since the very first time he’d gotten laid. Which, he guessed, was about what had just happened. Popped his cherry all over again. “Next time,” he said into Cody’s mouth, “You’re fucking me.” He thrust one last time, one more pulse of come, and he was done, collapsed boneless and used-up on Cody’s chest. All but forgotten, Dylan reminded them he was there by whistling long and low. “Damn, boys,” he said, sounding truly impressed. “Outstanding.” With a strange sort of tenderness Aaron wouldn’t have expected from a guy, but with his same old brazen attitude, Cody reached up to nudge fallen strands of hair out of Aaron’s eyes. They stuck to his forehead, plastered there with sweat. He felt slick from head to toe, worn out, exhilarated, buzzing like he was drunk only way, way better.

“You see why once I tried it, I didn’t go back?” Cody ribbed him. “And then some.” If Cody could get mushy, Aaron figured he was entitled. He kissed Cody’s shoulder and laid his head to rest on Cody’s chest, listening to the thundering beat of Cody’s heart under his ear. “Man, where did that come from?” Cody hesitated. Aaron knew that kind of pause; Cody was either gonna blow the whole thing off with a joke or go serious. “You really want to know?” Aaron tipped his head to the side so he could roll his eyes at Cody. “I just fucked you, came inside you, and I’ve still got my cock up your ass. What do you think, punk?” Cody smirked, a ghost of his usual king-of-the-world satisfaction, and to Aaron’s surprise blushed faintly pink. “I think you love me, dickhead.” “Don’t front,” Aaron finished it, in perfect sync with Cody. He sighed and rested his head again. “Cody, I…” “Hey.” Cody tweaked his hair. “Don’t get mushy on me.” Aaron grumbled. “I think I’m fucking entitled.” He licked his lips, still tasting salt and spunk. His cock tried to twitch inside Cody. “Recovery time,” Cody muttered, though he didn’t try to push Aaron off but stroked his head instead. Aaron had to close his eyes for this, though it took a lot less nerve than he’d anticipated to ask, “How long have I felt this way about you?” Cody took his time before answering. “Dunno. Maybe always? Me too. Took me almost as long to figure it out. Not till after I started working here.” And there was the rub, no pun intended. Mostly. Aaron drummed his fingers on Cody’s ribs. “So what’s that mean?” He could sense Dylan waiting at their side, a tension in him that hadn’t been there before, and he could feel what they had here -- not just him and Cody, but all of them -- trembling on the edge. For once, it was Cody who had the exact right thing to say. “Look at me,” he told Aaron, tipping his head up. He still had that hazy, drifting-away cast to his eyes, but they were as certain as Aaron had ever seen them. “You and me,” he said, tapping

Aaron’s cheek and then his chest, “We’re always gonna have history, and something bigger, between us. Something more because we’ve always been more, right?” “Fucking eloquent when you’ve just gotten laid,” Aaron said. Cody snickered. “We’ve all got our faults, Aaron.” Aaron twisted around as far as he could to look at Dylan, hating that he had to slip out of Cody’s body, but knowing this was one of those moments where a man had to do what a man had to do. For the first time since he’d gotten to know the guy, Dylan looked closed-down, shuttered away. That decided Aaron more than anything else. He and Cody, they were more, sure. “Doesn’t mean the rest of them are ‘less’,” Aaron said, extending his hand to Dylan. “I have no idea what we’re doing here, man, all of us, but it’s damn good and I’m not letting any of it go. Deal?” The sun came up in Dylan’s grin. He put out his fist for Aaron to give him a pound. “Deal.” It wasn’t too much of a surprise to hear the whooping, hollering, stomping and whistling start up outside. Aaron groaned, laughed, and hid his face in Cody’s chest, which shook with mirth. “How long were you assholes watching?” Cody yelled. “Who cares?” Aaron couldn’t stop grinning. “Get over here, you bastards. All of you.” One by one, two by two, the guys poured in through the open door and Aaron learned that football had fucking nothing on dog piling. Brandon, Gabriel, Ross, Skyler, maybe a couple more on top of them, dudes Aaron didn’t know but didn’t feel like excluding. Every man crowded on the bed or knelt beside it when they ran out of room. Hands everywhere, sweeping and smoothing and stroking. Pinching and slapping and groping. Some naked, some not, some getting there fast. It should have been weird, but it wasn’t. Cody, plus friends with definite benefits. Aaron could roll with that. A group like them, brought together this way,

should have been impossible, or at least too much to handle at once, but Aaron thought, knowing it was true, they’d been heading here all along. Sometimes life took a guy by surprise. Sometimes, home was where he least expected to find it, and when he did, it was better than he’d ever dreamed. Lights. Camera. Action.
