In The Dark

A week later, as Gray lazily watched Cliff undress for bed, they were both startled to hear the rattle of a key in the door. They looked at the door, then at each other. What was going on? Ann never let herself in the room. She cleaned it during the day while they were out. As Cliff quickly pulled his shirt back on, they could hear her cheerful voice talking to someone.

“…three beds. I hope you don’t mind roommates!”

A man’s voice responded. “Nah, no big deal.”

The door swung open, revealing Ann smiling widely, gesturing for the unknown man to enter the room. She waved at Cliff and Gray, who were sitting on their own beds, facing away from each other, trying not to look guilty. “Hey, you two. You’re going to have another roommate for the summer! This is Kai.”

Kai stepped into the room. He was tall and tan, with a bandanna on his head and a carefree manner. “’Sup, guys? I’ll be running the snack shack at the beach this summer.” Cliff and Gray both nodded silently at him, and Kai looked slightly puzzled.

Ann leaned in and lowered her voice. “They’re both really shy, and they don’t talk that much.”

Kai shrugged. “Ah, that’s cool. ‘Cause I like to talk a lot. Hope you guys like to listen!”

Cliff and Gray caught each other’s eye for a second, and the message between them was clear.

Oh, shit.

The next few days were miserable. It was not quite summer yet, so the snack shack wasn’t open. Kai spent a lot of time out and about on the town, but he came back to the room unexpectedly throughout the day. Cliff and Gray soon found that there was no way to get any privacy. They didn’t even dare go in the bathroom together, because what if Kai saw them come out at the same time? They couldn’t risk it.

They were both going mad with desire. One evening, as Kai lay back on his bed and rambled on and on about the last town he was in, Gray accidentally brushed against Cliff’s arm while putting something in the drawer. Cliff moaned softly because he wanted Gray so badly, and Gray had to grit his teeth, using every bit of his resolve not to jump Cliff right then and there, Kai be damned.

That night, Kai went out drinking at the bar with some friends he had made. Cliff and Gray lay in bed and whispered back and forth, arguing about whether they should try to do anything. Cliff whined and begged, but Gray was firm that it was too big of a risk.

Cliff’s eyes glittered in the darkness, and he licked his lips hungrily. “Then let’s just do it like old times.” As he spoke, he eased his boxers down and began touching himself, groaning with desire. He was hidden under the covers, but Gray knew what he was doing, and gasped.

“Dumb ass! W-what if he walks in?” Gray sputtered.

“We’ll just stop. He can’t see anything…it’ll be fine,” Cliff purred at Gray between moans as he stroked himself. “Please…I need it so bad…I need to hear you…” Cliff begged. Gray groaned in defeat and grasped his aching hardness roughly, pulling at it.

“Mmmm…” Cliff moaned. “I want you so bad.”

“I want you too,” Gray whispered, his breathing becoming labored as his passion built up.

“I want to taste you…” Cliff hissed through the darkness.

“Oh, don’t…” Gray groaned. “You’re driving me crazy... damn it…” The sound of Cliff whispering things at him just spurred him on, and he easily climaxed. Cliff gasped happily, picking up the pace on himself and releasing soon after. They cleaned up and lay in the darkness, catching their breath and gazing at each other.

“I wish I could hold you,” Cliff whispered at Gray.

Gray sighed, rolling his eyes back in his head. “I know…I wish summer was over already! Fuck summer!”

Kai stumbled in from the bar not long after. “Damn…it smells weird in here…like pancake batter…maybe Ann’s making pancakes. I’m starving! Pancakes!” He stumbled back out of the room, in search of non-existent breakfast foods, sure to only be rewarded with a scolding from Ann. Cliff stifled a laugh, then hurriedly jumped up, stepping across to Gray’s bed. He threw his arms around Gray’s neck and kissed him firmly, silencing Gray’s stuttered protests, then retreated to his own bed, snuggling under the covers.

“Just an innocent little kiss…that’s all…” Cliff trailed off as he fell asleep. Gray smiled softly and went to sleep himself.

They continued to lust fruitlessly for each other in the coming days. At least Kai would stay out late drinking and come home so drunk that he passed out snoring on his own bed, oblivious to what they were doing. They were at least able to watch each other from their own beds. But they longed to pleasure each other, and the never ending anticipation was killing them. They dared not risk sharing a bed and getting caught.

Finally, the announcement they had longed for arrived. Kai was opening the snack shack! “I’ll have the grand opening tomorrow. Every one in town is invited to the all you can eat buffet!”

Gray cleared his throat. “How long is this event going on for…?”

Kai grinned. “All day! Yeah, sunup to past sundown.” Gray just nodded, glancing at Cliff, whose eyes were glittering, and not at the idea of free food.

Gray rose before either of the other men the next morning, heading into the shop and working with all his might to do a good job. His grandfather noticed the increased effort, and complimented him on it. Gray smirked to himself. If only he knew the true reason for his enthusiasm! He finished up work at 1pm, and headed back to the inn, a spring in his step.

Gray rushed up the stairs, barreling into the bedroom. Cliff was already in there, just emerging from the shower. Their eyes met, and Gray backed up slightly to lock the door.

“He’s gone! I even went to the stupid buffet thing to make sure he’s staying all day,” Cliff said, and with that they rushed forward to each other. Gray snatched the towel from around Cliff’s waist as his mouth layered over Cliff’s. Gray’s tongue plunged practically down Cliff’s throat, and Cliff moaned happily in surprise and pleasure.

Gray shed his jumpsuit and boxers as quickly as he could between kisses. “I need you,” he managed to whisper, and Cliff allowed himself to be forced back onto the bed. They kissed each other furiously, their hands moving frantically over each other’s bodies. Cliff kissed a trail down Gray’s chest as he urged him up onto his knees, and then he bent awkwardly and took Gray’s hardness into his mouth. Gray groaned in delight, pushing Cliff’s head to take him deeper. Cliff willingly complied, sucking at him desperately, his free hand finding himself and stroking lightly. Gray climaxed heavily, spurting powerfully into the back of Cliff’s throat, and Cliff swallowed happily, pulling away and licking his lips delightedly.

Gray was still trembling terribly with pleasure, but managed to push Cliff onto his back, covering his hardness with his lips, licking and kissing furiously. Cliff hissed and whimpered in ecstasy, raking his fingers through Gray’s short hair. Gray also stroked Cliff’s long manhood with his fingers, making Cliff shudder with delight. A low groan began to emit from Cliff. “Oh, Gray, Gray, Gray…” he repeated over and over as he released into his mouth. Much to his delight and surprise, Gray swallowed enthusiastically.

They collapsed together on the bed, still murmuring and writhing together as they slipped between the sheets. It didn’t take long before they were both hard again, and Cliff spread lube over both of their manhoods. He urged Gray to enter him from behind, and they both groaned with pleasure as Gray pumped in and out of him. Gray reached around and slid his strong hand over Cliff. Cliff moaned in delight at the double pleasure of being taken from behind and having his hardness stroked. Gray’s moved in a staccato rhythm as he neared his second climax, and he grasped at Cliff roughly. Cliff gritted his teeth as Gray’s pounding and fondling forced a powerful orgasm out of him, and Gray quickly followed, releasing deep inside of Cliff.

They carefully pulled apart and lowered onto the bed, kissing lazily at each other’s necks. Gray pulled away to look Cliff in the eyes. “I love you,” he whispered.

Cliff sighed happily. “I love you, too,” he whispered back, and they held each other, satisfied.
