Miss Me

by Mel Spenser

  The more they talked, the more they discovered that they had a lot in common. They shared many of the same opinions on things like politics. Nick liked mostly classic rock music. Andy liked classic rock and alternative rock music. Neither were rabid sports fans, although Nick seemed to know more than his fair share of baseball stats. They had a similar sense of humor and really enjoyed each other's company.

  Before long, they'd finished eating. The waitress brought their check and cleared the dishes. By the time they walked back across the street over two hours later, the library was closed. They walked around to the rear parking lot.

  They stood by Andy's car. Neither wanted the evening to be over. Nick reached out and touched Andy’s wrist. "You want to come over to my place for a while? You could follow me."

  Andy smiled. "Yeah. Let's go."

  As Andy followed Nick's car, his cell rang.

  "Hi Sandy, what's up?"

  "I'm checking in. What are you up to?"

  "Nick and I just had dinner. I'm following him over to his place."

  "I won't keep you long. I only wanted to let you know that I emailed you some itineraries for the trip. Look at them tomorrow and let me know which one you like."

  "Will do." Andy pulled up at the curb in front of Nick's complex.

  "Anyway, I'll let you go. Talk to you tomorrow."

  He hung up as Nick walked up to his car. Andy had to wait to get out of his car while a pick-up slowly passed.

  "I was just now talking to my sister. We're planning a trip to Cancun for our birthday next month," he said as he got out of the car. "Ever been to Cancun?"

  "No. This is as far south as I've ever been."

  "Hmm. Maybe we'll have to fix that gap in your list of life experiences."

  "Oh, really?" Nick held Andy's hand as they walked up to his unit.

  "Just a thought. No pressure. Sandy, her husband Eric and the twins are going. But I'll be all by myself in my waterfront room overlooking turquoise water and a white sandy beach. I'll be strutting around flexing my pecs when I'm not lying by the pool or swimming up to the all-inclusive bar. Then I'll curl up all by myself in my king-size bed at the end of the day, nursing my sunburn."

  Nick laughed as he unlocked the door. "Do you plan on getting a sunburn?"

  "With this skin? It's inevitable. I go from white to lobster red within an hour. Unless, of course, I have someone to slather me up with SPF 92 sunscreen. It would be kinda weird to have my sister smear sunscreen all over my bod. And I seriously doubt that Eric wants to be rubbing his hands all over me…"

  Nick laughed. "All right. I get the picture. It would be really sad to think of pitiful little you all alone in your big king-size bed in paradise."

  "My sentiments exactly. But like I said…no pressure." He walked through the door. "I did mention the slathering, right? And the king size bed?"

  Nick laughed and closed the door behind them.

  "So where's this private patio garden I've been hearing about?"

  "Out those doors. Go take a look. I'll be right back."

  Andy walked over and looked out the set of French doors. The garden reminded him of a courtyard he'd seen in Puerto Vallarta. Rose-tinted pavers covered the ground. Every other surface was covered in a colorful mosaic of tiles. There was a heavily-padded, oversized chaise lounge. Two chairs sat on either side of a table. A shiny new stainless grill stood off to the side. Andy smiled when he saw it. Large plants grew in brightly tiled planters. He suddenly realized that he missed having a lot of plants in his backyard. As he stood there mesmerized, Nick walked up behind him, wrapped both arms around Andy’s waist and hugged him close.

  "What do you think?" Nick asked.

  "Very nice. And very private."

  Nick leaned over and kissed Andy on the neck. He shifted and traced his tongue on the sensitive skin behind Andy's ear. Andy's eyes drooped shut as he leaned his head to the side to allow Nick better access. With both of his hands, he covered Nick's interlaced fingers that rested on his stomach.

  "That chaise looks like it could be useful."

  "Um."

  Nick continued to press kisses along the side of his neck as Andy let his body rest against Nick’s. He felt Nick's erection pushing into the small of his back and he shivered. Nick felt Andy’s tremor and ground his hips to make better contact against Andy with his prick. He reached down and massaged Andy's already hard cock through the trousers.

  "Let's go upstairs," Nick whispered next to Andy's ear.

  "You talked me into it."

  He took Andy's hand and led the way to his loft.

  They stood next to the bed with their arms around each other's waists and leisurely kissed. After a few minutes, Andy stepped back, took off his glasses and set them on the nightstand. They slowly began undressing each other, touching and caressing as they went. This time they took it slower. They explored and savored each other's bodies with their lips, tongues and hands.

  Once they were both naked, Andy sat on the edge of the bed and pulled Nick to stand between his legs. He ran his hands over Nick's thighs. Andy pulled him closer and planted kisses on his stomach while caressing his ass. Andy cupped Nick’s ass with both hands, nuzzled his face in Nick's crotch to inhale the musky scent. He licked up the underside of the shaft.

  Andy looked up at him. "Want to suck you."

  He gripped Nick's shaft with one hand and cradled the balls in the other. Then put his lips around the end of Nick's cock. Nick was incredibly hard and thick.

  "Feels so good." Nick said as Andy's warm wet mouth surrounded him.

  Andy sucked on the head of Nick's cock. He gave special attention to the blunt head, running his lips over it and licking the sensitive underside with his tongue. He sucked the end steadily and Nick ran both hands through Andy's soft, blond hair. Andy opened his mouth further and took in the whole shaft until the head of Nick's cock rested against the back of his relaxed throat. He held it there for a moment as Nick gripped his hair. Then he started moving his head while he pulled on Nick's hips, encouraging Nick to start fucking his mouth. Nick quickly got the message and began rocking his hips.

  "Yes," Nick murmured.

  Andy continued stroking Nick's cock with his mouth, using his hands to knead Nick's ass and caress his thighs. He slid his hands up Nick's front and traced random patterns on Nick’s stomach and chest. He tugged on both nipples and felt Nick's cock thicken and jerk. Nick was obviously getting close to coming, so Andy eased up and gradually slowed his caresses. He released Nick's cock and looked up. Nick was looking down at Andy, his face flushed with desire and his lips slightly parted. His hooded eyes had turned dark brown, almost black.

  Andy scooted back on the bed, taking Nick's hand and encouraging the man to join him. They stretched out on their sides, facing each other. Nick gripped Andy behind the knee and pulled one leg to drape over his hip. He reached down and began massaging Andy's balls. His hand moved to the sensitive skin between Andy's balls and ass. Andy gave a sharp intake of breath and then moaned in response.

  "God, Nick. Need you in me. Want you to fuck me again."

  Nick, still under the effects of Andy's blowjob, was unable to form coherent words and could only nod his head in agreement. He twisted around and fumbled in the nightstand drawer. He removed the lube and a condom and set them on the bed.

  "Want you from behind this time, baby."

  Nick gently rolled Andy over and propped two pillows under his stomach elevating his ass. Nick got behind Andy and nudged Andy's legs with his knees to spread them further apart.

  Nick rested his hands on Andy's ass, looking at the slim waist and back before him. He ran his hands up Andy's spine to the shoulders, and then he slowly brought his hands back down the tight muscles on Andy’s sides. So perfect.

  He moved to position himself on his stomach between Andy's legs. He ran his hands over the back of Andy's thighs, brushing across the golden hair, then moved his hands up and rubbed Andy’s ass in a circular motion.
Using his thumbs, Nick separated Andy's ass cheeks, exposing the puckered hole. He ran his tongue up and down the sensitive area between the base of Andy's balls and hole. His kissed, licked and lightly nipped Andy's ass cheeks.

  He turned his attention to Andy's quivering hole. He tongued and licked the area. Nick darted the tip of his tongue at Andy’s hole, causing Andy to buck his hips and let out a long moan. Andy's legs started shaking and he rubbed his crotch against the pillows that were supporting his hips.

  Nick drew back and blew a stream of air where he had just been licking. Andy shivered and started to make soft, needy sounds. Nick got up on his knees and rested back on his heels. He quickly put on the condom. He reached for the lube and squeezed some on his fingers. He flipped the cap shut and tossed the bottle back on the bed. With two slicked up fingers, Nick began stroking Andy, brushing against his hole with every pass. Andy whimpered again and raised his ass up to meet the strokes. Nick slipped a finger in and Andy clenched around it.

  "Need you to relax, babe. Don't want to hurt you."

  Andy willed the ring of muscle at his entrance to loosen. Nick began probing, sliding his finger in and out. Nick soon added a second finger and continued stroking until Andy was grinding his crotch into the pillows.

  Nick's fingers slid out completely and Andy immediately felt the loss. As he lay there waiting, senses alert, he heard the cap on the lube open and close again.

  And he waited.

  He sighed in relief and expectation when he felt a very warm, latex sheathed cock probing his crack. He reached back and spread his cheeks, exposing his relaxed hole. He was immediately rewarded when the blunt head of Nick's cock slid slowly but steadily in. Andy clutched at the sheets as Nick kept pushing in until he was completely full.

  "You okay?"

  Andy had few functioning brain cells left, so he nodded his head and mumbled something unintelligible. Nick took that as a yes.

  He was fully seated in Andy and was trying to maintain his control so he wouldn't shoot too soon. The hot tightness, combined with the feeling of his balls resting snuggly against Andy, was almost too much. He leaned forward, molding his chest to Andy's back, surrounding him. Propping himself with his hands, he placed hot kisses on the back of Andy's neck and shoulders. Buried deep inside, with his body curved around Andy's, Nick was suddenly shaken by the level of raw emotion he felt. This was no quick fuck. This wasn't remotely close to anything he had ever experienced with anyone before.

  Nick took his time, savoring every sensation. Slowly rotating his hips, he felt his pubes brushing against the silky hair on Andy's ass. His balls gently knocked against Andy. He had never had such an incredibly intense and intimate reaction to anyone.

  He whispered into Andy's ear, "You ready for a ride, babe?"

  "Yeah," came the muffled response. "Give it to me."

  Nick rose up on his knees, nudging Andy's thighs further apart. He gripped Andy's hips tightly, looked down at where they were connected, and desire ripped through him. He watched his dick as he began pumping slowly at first and then started picking up speed. His hips fell into a steady rhythm, his ass flexing with each thrust.

  "Harder. Let me have it."

  Nick responded by pumping faster, his hips snapping, until sweat began to drip off of him. He let his head drop back and closed his eyes. With his head back, he held on to Andy's hips and thrust again and again, giving himself over to the sensations. All he could focus on was the hot, tight slickness where they were joined. He was getting very close to coming. He shifted and angled down so he could rub against Andy's gland.

  "Ohhh!" came a muffled groan. "There!"

  Andy's hands gripped blindly at the sheets. Nick lifted Andy's hips, reached around and pulled the pillows out from under him. He found Andy's cock and stroked it, repeatedly running his thumb over the head. His cock rubbed over the sweet spot again and he felt Andy go rigid. Nick’s own balls tightened. With a grunt and a moan, they both climaxed at the same time. Nick continued to groan and shoot as Andy constricted around him. They stayed that way until they both stopped shuddering.

  Nick all but collapsed on Andy's back. He managed to wrap his arms around Andy and roll them both over onto their sides. As they lay, still joined, Nick clutched Andy against his chest. He nuzzled his face in Andy's hair, inhaling the scent, while they stayed together trying to recover.

  "God, Nick. It's never been like that for me before." Andy could feel Nick's heart still slamming against his chest.

  "Me either," Nick barely managed to reply.

  Their breathing finally slowed and their bodies started to cool down. Nick slowly withdrew, rolled over and sat on the edge of the bed. He removed the condom and tossed it in the trashcan. He continued sitting there with his head in his hands.

  "Nick?" Andy looked back over his shoulder.

  When he didn't respond, Andy sat up and then crawled over to him. Andy rested a hand on his shoulder. "Is something wrong?" He heard Nick choke out a sob. Alarmed, he said, "What the hell's wrong, buddy?"

  Nick shook his head in his hands, but didn't say anything. Andy sat and waited.

  Finally Nick said, "It's just…. Fuck!" He spat out. He took a deep breath and tried again. "It's just never been like that before," he choked out. "So fucking intense..."

  Andy said nothing, just scooted over and sat behind Nick with a leg on each side of him. He wrapped his arms around Nick's waist and laid his head on Nick’s back. Andy held him that way as they sat there on the edge of the bed together.

  Neither of them spoke for a long time.

  Chapter 5

  They slipped into a routine. They spent every evening and weekend for the next month together. Nick would stop by and meet Andy when he got off work. They quickly learned to go eat first before they returned to Nick's loft.

  Another Thursday evening found them once again lying naked in Nick's bed after yet another heated bout of sex. As usual, Andy was pressed up against Nick with his arms and leg wound around Nick’s. He was lazily twirling his finger through the line of dark hair that went from Nick's navel down to the crotch. Nick was on his back, his arm around Andy's shoulders. He toyed with Andy's hair, staring at the ceiling. Every so often, he would absently kiss Andy's head or press his face into Andy's hair.

  "Do you have any plans this weekend?" Nick asked. "My sister and her husband, Steve, are flying in tomorrow. I'd like for you to meet them."

  "I'd like that." He rubbed his cheek against Nick's pec. "What time do they land?"

  "Around 4:30 PM. We'll probably go out to eat."

  "Sounds good. Since I worked last Saturday, I'm off for the next three days."

  "Cool," Nick said. "I'd like for you to spend time with us if you want."

  "Okay. Hey! How are you going to pick them up in your tiny little two-seater?"

  "Shit! I didn't even think about that."

  "Don't worry about it. We'll take my car. I've got plenty of room for all of us and their luggage."

  "Thanks."

  "Where are they staying?" Andy asked.

  "Fuck!"

  "You've really thought this out, haven't you?"

  "Shit."

  "Calm down," Andy said.

  "Shit."

  "Will you just relax?"

  "Sorry."

  "Geeze. So tense…"Andy rubbed Nick's stomach and continued playing with his navel and the hair around it.

  Andy took a breath like he was going to say something. He hesitated, then said, "Well, my house is pretty big. I've got a guest room with an attached bath."

  "You what?"

  "Yeah. They could stay at my place. That is, if they don't mind a dog. Henry pretty much has to have the run of the place. He won't have any problem with them after they're properly introduced."

  "Huh?"

  "Henry is a guard dog. A Doberman. My sister ordered him and bought him for me a year ago for protection when I was in the hospital. He came to me fully trained at about eighteen months old." />
  Nick frowned at the ceiling. What the hell did Andy need a trained guard dog for? Protection from what? Before he could ask, Andy continued.

  "So they could stay at my place. Of course, if your sister hates me on sight, they'll be shit out of luck and all three of you will be sleeping up here together. You already know that I don't cook, so food might be an issue. I don't have any supplies. Actually, I wouldn't even have a clue what to buy. I wouldn't even know where to begin…" his voice trailed off.

  "You'd do that? You'd let them stay at your place?"
