Strangers with Candy

It’s a good thing I’m a slut or I’d have nothing to write about. Just when you think you have nothing left to say, something different. Someone manages to surprise you.

Got an instant message from Alex yesterday. Met him a few years ago at a Christmas party. Tall, lanky, blond boy with a killer face and an impeccable smile. A surfer dude. He had a boyfriend at the time, football player type with dark hair and faraway eyes, the unfriendly kind.

Alex is one of those harmless boys who can’t help himself, a flirt. He doesn’t meant to be a tease, it’s just his way. Every once in a while he’ll send a few g-rated words my way, then sign off. Once he even sent me a naked picture. But that’s Alex, just letting off some steam in the form of little pop-up messages.

Then yesterday, a question.
“So what are you up to tonight?” He asks.
“Not much, why?
“I'm hungry, want to grab a bite somewhere? Maybe you can come over later, watch some TV, hang out?”
“Dude, don’t you have a boyfriend?”
“Nope. We split up months ago.”

I met him at a neighborhood diner. Turns out the boy is funny, aloof, smart. Never actually hung out with him before. Our entire exchange so far has been through a keyboard. I like him, he's cute, even insists on paying.

After dinner we head over to his apartment. It’s a cozy place. A small studio in Chelsea with all the gadgets, computers, big speakers and a flat screen TV. We get comfortable, watch a couple of episodes of Strangers with Candy. Then he kisses me. Warm, soft, artful kiss, the kind you feel it all the way down to your toes. We start making out, it’s hot. His hands in all the right places, just the right pressure. The boy is talented. This is good, I’m having fun. Then just like that, he stops, gets up, walks over to his VCR, puts on some porn. Lies next to me and starts jerking off.

Huh?

I look at him, not sure exactly what just happened. Is he kidding me? A quick check of my armpits. Nope, they’re fine. What the fuck? He’s stroking his dick so fast, his hand’s one big blur. Up, down, up, down. Eyes, closed, forehead scrunched. His whole body’s tensed up tight. He’s going somewhere, just not with me.

If I weren’t so confused this could be hot. What the hell is going on? Here I am, his for the taking, and this boy seems more excited about his hand then anything I could offer.

Only me. Where do I find these guys? I look at him, check my options: I could get all indignant, or I could get off. I do what any horny person would do, I grab my dick and join in. It takes me a few seconds but I get into it. There’s something rather exciting this whole situation. Part high schoolish, part kinky, not entirely a bad combination.

What’s more, he’s not completely ignoring me. His hands are all over my body, skillfully finding spots of electricity under my skin. I swear he knows exactly where to go. My eyes go back and forth between his enormous dick and the porn. He kisses my mouth, my neck, my nipples but that’s as south as his lips will go. This is weird, insane, but hey, I’m having fun.

Then he explodes on his hand, his stomach, little white spots glistening on tiny golden hairs. I take my free hand, smear it all over, on his chest, his arms. Then I climax too. I cum so much I almost hit my left eye and other places I usually don’t reach. Maybe it was the anticipation, maybe the surprise factor, but my whole body is twitching, quivering.

We rest a bit, catch our breaths, then I see the clock, it’s after midnight, I have to go. As I start getting dressed, I can feel the questions coming. I try to wrestle them out of my mind, I tell myself to keep quiet. He’s a nice kid, let him be. Oh, who am I kidding?
“So do you always prefer jerking off when a naked boy is laying in your bed? I ask.
“Why? Was that strange?”
“A bit, yes.”
“You fuck every time?”
“No. But usually if it goes this far, if I get this naked, it involves some kind of sex, like a blow job.”
“Really?”

I’m confused. Am I crazy? Nope, this was definitely a bit odd. I’m pretty sure I haven’t done this since puberty.
“Is this your thing?" I keep on going, I need to know. "You can tell me, not judging, but are you a little weird?”

He smiles.
“No it’s just that, well, I don’t like to do that on the first time. I’m a bit old-fashion I guess.”

Of all the possibilities, that one I didn’t expect, never even entered my mind. A good boy. He’s not kinky, not crazy, not afraid of intimacy, just sweet, and strangely romantic.

I kiss him on the cheek, then leave. I’m pretty sure he thinks I’m a big whore. Serves me right for being so cynical.

OMG ... that is hilarious ... I am the same way though if the boy I'm with is someone I like, and not just a hook-up...no sex...at the most jerking off for the first week ... I at least need to appear virginal even if everyone knows I'm a big whore on camera.

[Roy]

LOL @ Chad! I think I would have been freaked out too, and I think it's great that you asked him about it instead of wondering what had just happened and why. Maybe there will be more with you guys?

[Toby]

Ethan, it seems nearly every guy you hook up with has an enormous penis! What is your secret!

[Ethan]

That would be my big ass.

[ura nagger]

least ya coulda done waz to suck his nutz to help em get off.

maybe then when it waz ur turn he wood offer to do the same?

maybe he luvs his tv more than u?

[huh@huh.com]

I love how watching porn with a guy is "old-fashioned." LOL

[Cliché Guy]

wow... that really is... surprising. just when i thought a gay guy couldn't surprise me anymore... but aside from that little fact... I think to be old fashioned he shoudln't have allowed the clothes to come off...

[HisHolynessDPope]

i'd like to see the top five or six gay blog writers get together in a communal marriage of sorts...

Think of the money and time saved if they had one larger site that would cater to all...

If they all wrote about the same story we'd have completely different stories being told due to their perspectives and writing styles.

Posting some photos of some of the action would increase traffic to the site... more ad revenue would be the result...

Would be nice to see it on a trial basis for a year and if it didn't work out just think... some might pair up together in the ideal relationship, hit it off really great?

You are a big whore...you just pretend there is more to it.

[Bobby Alexander]

haha that happened to me once, too. except it wierded the heck out of me. there's just something odd about watching porn in the company of others-especially guys that you are attracted to. i mean, to me it's just odd.

i went on this date with this 32 yr old when i was 20 and he took me back to his apt to "watch tv" (naive little me i thought he was serious about the tv watching) and all of a sudden it's "welcome to Falcon-land" on the screen. he whipped his out and (unlike your boy, Ethan) stroked and stared me down like he wanted to just scream "what's wrong with you!? don't you wanna join in!?"

...so i just looked at him and was like, "um...so i wonder what's on VH1?"

(cuz that's back when VH1 used to actually play videos and they played alot of Mariah and i was a huge Mariah fan--yes, i was tottaly serious. i really wanted to know what was on VH1).

so, i totally get your story, Ethan and i think maybe you should give this cute, lanky blonde boy a chance. i mean, first "date" and he's already opened up your mind a bit. imagine the second and third.

LAUGH OUT LOUD FUNNY. Omg! you had me in riots.

[JT]

Duh, dude, most likely, he has herpes, and does not want to infect you. He will tell you next time you meet (if it goes further). You can ask him, too - he seems like a nice guy, and won't lie to you.

[xolondon]

Herpes? heh heh.

Maybe he actually LIKES you and doesn't want to take it so fast, so that he is not just another fuck/trick. Or maybe he was a little nervous b/c he is hot for you. Not everyone is as sexually confident as the next person. Whatever, keep 'em wanting more.

HAPPY NEW YEAR!!!!!!!
HAPPY NEW YEAR!!!!!!!

[murraynz]

I count myself lucky that this is the first entry of yours that I get to read. Fucking hilarious.

My father would flip if I told him the definition of "old fashioned" was to put on some porn while masturbating with a first date, I think he´d have a hernia.

[istanbulcasual]

Ethan,where are you??you need to make more posts for Shades of Gray-the book...i already began to design your cover;) seriously we missed your posts...BTW Happy New Year

[HisHolynessDPope]

Ethan, are the rumors of your death greatly exaggerated?
