The Barnstable Chronicles: Book 5 - Beautiful Boy - 19. Freshman Year, Christmas Break

We've got some more firsts for Noah in this chapter--including a trip to Los Angeles where he meets up with an old friend--and someone incredibly special!
Enjoy!!
-Geoff

Thanksgiving morning, I woke up with Billy’s mouth on my cock. I think that’s probably my favorite way to wake up in the morning. I’m never sure how long Billy has my cock in his mouth, but when I wake up this way, I’m usually pretty close to blowing my nut (that’s what Billy calls it) into his throat.

After that happens, Billy moves his mouth down to my hole and gets me ready for his big cock. I’m getting more and more used to the size, but I’m never going to get used to how good my boyfriend makes me feel when he’s so deep inside me! I always end up blowing my nut again when Billy makes love to me—and I couldn’t be more thankful for my amazing boyfriend. I should think of those things if it’s Thanksgiving.

That afternoon, Billy’s dad and brother showed up at the house. Mr. Vincente had plates of cheese and crackers so we could make it through the afternoon without getting too hungry. Mr. Miller kept thanking Dad and David for having his family over for Thanksgiving. He said it was the first time in years that he didn’t have to cook for a holiday.

Billy’s older brother Grant was very different from Billy. He was a Senior business major at Ithica College. Mr. Miller said Grant was going to take over the business end of the restaurant and take that pressure off. Billy said it was going to be the perfect arrangement. His dad always hated the business side of the restaurant, but he loved cooking and developing the menus.

Speaking of menus, Mr. Vincente made his best meal ever! He cooked the turkey out in the backyard. He had this thing full of hot oil, and he lowered the turkey into it and fried it. It was the best turkey I’ve ever tasted. It was real moist and tender and had the best flavor!

The stuffing was full of the vegetables I helped cut up the day before. It was really good too, so that made me happy. Mr. Vincente also made asparagus that was crusted with parmigiana cheese, mashed potatoes, Brussels sprouts, and the best macaroni and cheese I’ve ever had! He added something called pancetta, which he said was an Italian-style bacon, and he used four different kinds of cheese in it! I don’t know if I can ever enjoy the cheesey mac out of the box again—but I’ll try hard!

After dinner, we were all sitting in the living room, watching a rebroadcast of the Macy’s Parade. The grownups all fell asleep while we were watching. Billy had his arm around my shoulder while I was leaning into him. Grant came to the sofa and sat next to Billy.

“You know, when you told me you were gay and that you were with that asshat Devin, I was worried about you and the choices you were making. But now that I see you with Noah, I’ve never seen you so happy. I’ve never seen the boy you were with so happy. I’ll admit, both Dad and I were a little worried when you told us Noah was on the spectrum, but the more I get to know him, the more I realize that you couldn’t have found a better dude to spend your life with. I’m so fucking happy for you—for both of you.”

“Thanks, Grant. I’ve always kinda been waiting to hear something like that from you. You’ll never know how much I appreciate it.”

“Well, you know as well as I that you’ll never hear anything like that from Dad, but you should know that he’s just happy to see you like this—and just so you know, he thinks the world of Noah and his family.”

Even though he was sitting in the chair next to the sofa—with his eyes closed—Mr. Miller said, “I heard every word you said, Grant. But you were wrong about one thing.”

“Dad! It’s okay. You don’t have to say anything.”

“Billy, I do have to say one thing. Was I disappointed you didn’t want to be in the family business? Yeah—maybe more than a little. Was I blown away when I heard you sing for the first time? Hell, yes! Was I concerned when you told me that your boyfriend was the student you would be mentoring? Yeah—until I met this remarkable young man.

“Noah—I have never seen my son happier. I have never seen his face light up as I do when he talks about you. When Billy told me about you, I didn’t know what to expect—but I can’t even begin to tell you how impressed I am with you. You bring this beautiful sense of calm—and peace—not just to Billy but to everyone around you. Okay, that was more than one thing. I’m going to close my eyes now and enjoy my turkey coma.”

Once the grownups woke up, Mr. Vincente brought down some pumpkin pie, coffee, and juice. It was so good, too! After dessert, Mr. Miller and Grant went back home. Billy and I wanted to go up to the terrace and sit in the hot tub, even though it was pretty cold outside.

The hot water felt real good, but Billy’s kisses felt even better! It didn’t take long for both of us to get hard and horny. Billy asked if I would take him into the shower and be naughty with him.

I’m not very good at being naughty with words, but I was naughty while I fucked him hard and fast in the shower. Billy said all kinds of naughty things while I was moving in and out of his hole. It always gets me excited when he talks like that. I was rubbing Billy’s cock while I was fucking him when he sprayed his cum all over the shower wall, which made me spray mine inside him.

On Saturday, Billy and David spent some time working on the recital while I helped Nana and Mr. Vincente make dinner from the leftovers from Thanksgiving.

We made a turkey and pasta casserole. David had me shape the leftover dressing into patties, and he showed me how to fry them on the stove so they were crispy on the outside and real soft on the inside.

Billy made love to me Saturday night and held me in his arms all night while we slept. I didn’t know it was possible, but it’s like every time Billy makes love to me, I love him more and more than I ever have before.

David took all of us, including Mr. Vincente, out to brunch on Sunday. We went to a place called The Penrose. It was a big restaurant, and there were a lot of people, but the nice thing was that they divided up the restaurant into smaller rooms, so there weren’t a lot of people around us—especially since we had a bigger table.

While we were finishing our brunch, Billy asked me if I would like to go to Rockefeller Center and ice skate. We had been to Rockefeller Center when David was on The Tonight Show, but I’ve never been there to ice skate.

Dad asked Billy how we would get there, and he said we could take the subway. Uh-oh. I’ve never been on the subway. Dad always said it might be too much for me. That was why he always walked me to Aaron School, even though the subway would have been a lot faster.

Only this time, Dad said he thought it would be okay since it was Sunday. It wouldn’t be as crowded, and if I had my headphones, it would be okay. I was just a little nervous, but I was fine as soon as Billy took my hand.

When the train got to the station, we got on one of the last cars since it had the fewest number of people waiting. The only thing I didn’t like about the subway was how bad it smelled underground where we were waiting. Billy said the smell was piss, and it was ten times worse in the Summer. That’s gross, but it wasn’t so bad when we got on the train, though.

I liked how fast the train got us to Rockefeller Center. Nana would call the train ride an adventure when the truth was that it was the fastest and easiest way to get around the city. Billy told me that I wouldn’t like it during the week when everybody was trying to get to and from work. He said most people had to stand and everybody was real close to each other. I’m pretty sure I would hate that.

The ice skating was a lot of fun. Billy was really good at it, so he taught me how to move around on the ice. Of course, I fell on my butt a whole lot of times, but it was still fun! When we finished, we went to a little restaurant across the street. We had hot chocolate and hamburgers. It was nice to eat warm food after being out in the cold.

The subway ride back home was even better. There weren’t as many people, but I wore my headphones because there was still a lot of noise. When we got back to the house, we packed our things so Dad could drive us back to school.

Thanksgiving weekend was a good break from school, but now we had to get ready for our finals. Billy and I studied hard every night. But my favorite time in the three weeks between Thanksgiving and Christmas break was the time we had Chorale.

Ms. Faust finally told us about the recital and the tour. I was glad Billy and I didn’t have to keep everything a secret anymore. The only strange thing was when Ms. Faust told the group that David was one of my dads, and everybody wanted to ask me questions about that. Billy told everyone that they shouldn’t bother me with questions because I was still the same person I was before they found out about my family.

David’s concert was going to be on the last Wednesday before Spring break. He asked that the chorale sing on the last number of the program. Ms. Faust was really excited because David picked a piece called A Jubilant Song. She said it was her favorite contemporary choral piece and that she got to sing it in college—with the composer conducting their choir! The composer wasn’t alive anymore, so she was going to conduct it.

I think we were most excited about the tour. Our first stop was the National Cathedral in Washington, DC. She said that David was going to join us for that concert so we could do the same piece there. We were also going to sing at the National Aquarium in Baltimore. After Baltimore, we were going to sing at a choral festival at Princeton University. The last stop on our tour was going to be Carnegie Hall! David was already scheduled to do a solo concert, and he added us to the end of his program!

Billy started to cry when Ms. Faust told us about Carnegie Hall. I asked him why he was so sad, and Billy said he was happier than he ever thought he could be. Billy said that when he told his dad that he wanted to study music, the one thing he remembered his dad saying was that he would know that Billy made the right choice when he could sit in the audience at Carnegie Hall and see his youngest son perform. Okay—that was cool.

A Jubilant Song turns out to be one of the hardest songs I’ve ever had to learn. Billy’s friend Felix was the pianist for the Chorale, and he said it was probably the hardest song he’s ever played for a choir. He was kind of freaking out about it, but Billy said that David had mentioned that he would work with the Chorale pianist so they could each play it the same way. Weird. Felix was nodding, smiling, and crying all at the same time.

Finals were tough, but I think I did well. College is definitely more intense than high school. I’m glad I have a mentor to help me get through all the complicated things. I’m even more glad that my mentor is my boyfriend. He helps me in a lot of ways.

I was excited when finals were done and Christmas break began. Well, mostly excited. Billy and I were going to be apart for a whole week. But the part that excited me was that we were going to get on a plane and fly to Los Angeles! Ellen asked David to play some Christmas music for the last of her giveaway days. When David said he wanted to bring his family with him, she said okay. Nana said she wanted to stay in New York to help Mr. Vincente get ready for Christmas Day.

We went to a different part of the airport the next morning. The big car pulled right up to the plane! It wasn’t as big as the plane I would fly to Barnstable on, but it was just for us!

The night before we left, I Facetimed Sky and told him I was going to be in California for a few days. He looked real pretty. He had a suntan now, and his hair was longer. It wasn’t as long as Billy’s, but it still looked nice. He said he couldn’t wait to see me and that he wanted me to meet Lex—his boyfriend. Lex? The only person I could think of with that name was Lex Luther from the Superman movies. I hope Sky’s boyfriend isn’t mean like that!

The plane was really cool. It even had a bedroom in the back. Dad and David went back there as soon as we were in the air. I’m pretty sure they were having sex. They’re always having sex. It was nice that the plane had movies and the internet. I talked to Billy on Facetime. He wanted me to get sexy with him, but I couldn’t. A lady was helping with the flight, and she was sitting in front of the plane. Billy got naked anyway, but I had to make him stop because it was getting me too excited. I promised him we could play on Facetime when we got to the hotel.

I have to tell you about the hotel! It was called The Garland, and it was set up a lot like the cruise ship we went on. Dad and David’s room had a kitchen, bedroom, and living room. I had a bedroom and living room, and it was connected to the other suite with one of those funny double door things.

We got to the hotel at 1:00 in the afternoon, and I called Sky right away. He asked if Lex and he could come to the hotel and see me. I asked Dad, and he said it was okay. David had a rehearsal at Warner Brothers for Ellen, and he was going to go with him.

I told Sky, and he said they would take me out and show me Los Angeles. About an hour later, there was a knock on my door. It was Sky! He had a big smile on his face, and we hugged when he came into the room. He introduced Lex to me—he hugged me, too. Lex wasn’t mean at all. He was real nice—and real pretty.

He wasn’t as tall as Sky, but he had a lot of muscles. He said he was an art major at CalArts. Sky told me that he was also his boyfriend. I thought it was neat that both of us now had typical boyfriends.

Dad and David came into the room to say hello to Sky. They were glad that he was so happy in California. After David and Dad left for the studio, the three of us went downstairs and got Lex’s car. The first place they took me was to In and Out for lunch. The hamburgers were real good, too.

They drove me around and showed me some houses where famous people lived. We also went to Venice Beach. The ocean sure was a lot different than the ocean on Long Island! The waves were real big. Lex said that’s where he and Sky surf.

They asked if I wanted to learn how to surf. I thought that would be a lot of fun, so they said they would pick me up early in the morning. They liked to surf early before the big crowds got there. I was surprised when they told me that they would pick me up at the hotel at 6:30 in the morning. I had to check with Dad to make sure it was okay, but I was looking forward to learning how to surf.

Dad said I could go to the beach in the morning, but I had to be back by lunchtime so we could all go to the studio for the taping. I asked David if I could bring Sky and Lex with me, but he said there weren’t any extra seats because of the 12 Days of Giveaways. He said that Dad and I would have to watch the show from backstage.

The next morning, I had a cup of café mocha down in the lobby while I was waiting for Sky and Lex to come and pick me up. I was just wearing shorts, a t-shirt, and flip-flops since Sky said I could wear one of his wetsuits.

When we got to the ocean, I asked Sky where we were supposed to change.

“We change right here.”

“What?”

Sky handed me a wetsuit, and while we were standing behind the car, they just got naked and put on their wetsuits. My eyes got big when I saw Lex. He was real pretty, and his muscles made a lot of lines and ridges on his body. Sky looked real good, too. I could tell he had been working out at the gym.

Oh well—I took off my clothes and started to put on the wetsuit. “Wow, Noah. You look real good. You’ve been working out at the gym?”

“Yes, you look good too, Sky.”

“You’re both fucking hot!”

We finished putting on our wetsuits, and Lex pulled three surfboards off the top of his car. We carried them to the beach. We put the boards on the sand, and Lex showed me how to lay on top of it and then hop up. Then we took it into the calm part of the water and tried it again. I fell in the water a lot but got used to it after a while.

The next thing we did was swim out. Lex said the first couple of times I caught a wave, I should just kneel on the board and ride it in. That was a lot of fun! When it was time to try it standing up, I fell into the water the first couple of times. Whenever I fell in, Lex was always there and helping me back on the board. He sure was strong. I finally made it all the way in while I was standing on the board. It was exciting, and I got hugs from Sky and Lex.

When we got back to the car, we stripped off our wetsuits and dried off. Lex looked at me and smiled. “Noah, you were awesome out there. I’m not surprised, though. I’ve heard some pretty amazing things about you from Sky—and I was—no—we were wondering if you would like to spend the evening with us at my place.”

“Spend the evening?”

“You know—have some fun in bed. I see how you’re looking at my body—and I know you can see how fucking hot I think you are.”

“I—I don’t think I can do that. I have a boyfriend back in New York. We promised that we would only be with each other. I can’t break my promise to Billy. Please don’t be mad. Sky?”

“We’re not mad at you, Noah. And I think Billy’s a very lucky boy to have you as a boyfriend.”

“Sorry dude. I didn’t want to freak you out, but hey—you never get what you want if you don’t ask for it. You fucking rock that body you have, Noah. This Billy dude is fucking lucky to have you.”

“I’m pretty lucky to have Billy, too. But Sky—I’m glad you have Lex. He’s lucky, too.”

“Yeah. Hey! We have time for some quick breakfast before we have to get Noah back to the hotel.”

“Why don’t we eat at the hotel? We should be able to make it back in time for the buffet.”

We made it back with plenty of time to eat. I had to take a quick shower before we went to the studio, so I said goodbye to Sky and Lex. It’s funny how happy I was to see Sky again, but all of those feelings I had for Sky in high school weren’t there anymore.

I took a quick shower and got dressed to go to the studio. I wore my jeans and my favorite flowy white shirt. That shirt used to be flowy, but now that I’m getting muscles, it’s a little tight. Billy says it’s my sexy shirt. That makes me smile.

They picked us up in a big car, and we went right to the studio. A lady met us and took us inside to David’s dressing room. David got dressed in his black leather pants, v-neck t-shirt, and wore the jacket that Dad made for him on Project Runway.

Dad and I watched David play from the side of the stage. He played regular Christmas songs but made them sound like classical composers wrote them. It was real cool when the audience went crazy. Luckily I had my headphones ready to go.

After David played, they went to a commercial break. Dad and I went back to the dressing room so we could watch Ellen talk to David. They talked about how David was a challenge on Project Runway, and Ellen made fun of him for not picking Dad’s design. David made sure to let Ellen know that he was still wearing Dad’s jacket.

It was funny when Ellen picked up some blue cards and started to look through them. “I’m sorry, David. I just needed to check where I was going to go next since I told you I wouldn’t be reminding everyone about you being a former Sexiest Man Alive. David’s face turned red when they put a giant picture of him in his Speedo.

She reminded everyone how David helped raise $20,000 for her gorilla fund. She thanked David again and went to another commercial. Just then, someone came back to the dressing room and said we needed to get ready to go out and meet Ellen. I looked at Dad, and he said it should be okay as long as I had my headphones on when we walked out.

I wasn’t nervous. I was too excited to finally meet Ellen! She’s my favorite person ever who’s on television!

“We’re back with the remarkable David Chase on our last day of giveaways. Now—before we let you go, I understand you have a very special concert coming up in the Spring?”

“Yes, Ellen. Our son is a Freshman at Adelphi University, studying Marine Biology, and he’s part of a remarkable program called Bridges to Adelphi.”

“Now, it’s my understanding that this is a program that pairs mentors and students that are on the autism spectrum?”

“That’s correct. It’s a fantastic way for these remarkable kids to fit into regular university life. Our son has grown in so many remarkable ways, and my team has decided to put on a benefit concert for the program.”

“So, if it’s alright with you, I know you brought Charlie and your son with you today. Can we bring them out?”

David got a big smile on his face as we walked onto the stage. I had my headphones on and thought I was dreaming when Ellen held out her arms to hug me! I always dreamed that she was hugging me whenever she did that to guests!

I sat on the white sofa between David and Dad. I took my headphones off when Ellen put microphones on our shirts.

“Charlie, Noah, thanks for being here! Charlie, I understand you’ve had quite a bit of success since you won Project Runway.”

“Yes. It was amazing how perfectly everything happened. I’m now the Director of Coutour for Christian Siriano Designs. I’m glad he liked my work well enough to bring me on board.”

“Amazing! I would just love to wear one of your designs—if I ever wore gowns—or dresses. Oh well, I guess I’ll just get to enjoy looking at them from a distance!”

“And Noah—I understand that when you’re not in school, you work at the Long Island Aquarium?”

“Yes, it’s one of my favorite places. I’m friends with some of the penguins and sharks—and Oscar—he’s a sea lion.”

“Well, we knew you were going to be here today, and we have someone who would like to say hello to you. Just look at that monitor down there.”

That was my first surprise. Mike was on the monitor, smiling like he always does when I walk into his office.

“Mike Prescott—welcome to the show. I understand you have a special connection to this remarkable guy sitting here with me?”

“That’s right, Ellen—and thanks for having me on the show today! Noah Danner walked into the aquarium one morning and changed all of our lives without any of us realizing it. He has an uncanny ability to communicate with many of our animals. As a result, we made changes to the penguin habitat—and we even discovered that our Tiger Shark had a hidden tumor that we were able to remove before it became something that could have ended her life.”

“Noah! So you saved the Tiger Shark’s life?”

“Well, not really. She just let me know that she was hurting and wanted me to tell the shark doctor. That’s all I did.”

“And so—Mike and Noah. I just wanted to let you know that my friends at Shutterfly love stories like this, and they wanted to give $10,000 to the aquarium’s general fund.”

This guy ran out to the stage, handed me a giant check, and whispered that I should show it to the audience. I smiled real big when I did that—after I thanked Ellen.

“Now, David Chase—former sexiest man alive—

The audience laughed and cheered when David’s picture went up on the big screen again.

“The last time you were here, you donated $20,000 to my gorilla fund. Since it’s the last of our 12 Days of Giveaways, Shutterfly and I are feeling exceptionally generous. We want to give another $10,000 to the Bridges to Adelphi program.”

The man came running out with another big check and handed it to David. Everybody was hugging everybody. When I hugged Ellen, I was so happy! She even told me I was a beautiful boy—I bet Dad said to her that’s what he calls me all the time.

We were on the plane back to New York when the show aired, but Billy was watching it while we Facetimed. I kind of saw it, but Nana said she was recording it so we could all watch when we got back home.

All I wanted to watch when we got home was Billy’s face when he was shooting his cum in my butt. Tonight! I get to be with Billy tonight!

Well, we're about to wrap up the story of Noah. I promise, it's ending exactly where I had planned for it to end.
I'm pretty excited about my next story--Goodnight and Godspeed--and you'll never believe this--the main character is an adult! Of course, there will be plenty of flashbacks incorporated into the story! LOL
I'm back to work (finally) so that means I'm not able to write everyday like before. But, things aren't looking so good in Texas, and my back-to-work might end as quickly as it started. I'm teaching an in-person musical theatre camp with fifteen masked kids seated six feet apart. It's just nice to be in the company of others. The things we have taken for granted.
Thank you all for your love and support of this story. There was an amazing kid on America's Got Talent last week who is on the spectrum. He was amazing! You can watch him here: https://youtu.be/bxOB20h8s5o
Be on the lookout for a bit of a preview for my new story! It'll just be a tease.

Great chapter! I absolutely love Noah's story. Its wonderful to be able to read something happy and positive when the world today is negative in so many ways. Be safe. Minnesota isn't too bad right now. Expecting it to get worse, but hopefully I'm wrong. The retail company I work for is cutting freight by 60% expecting another stay at home order in the near future. Scary times, but we have stories like yours to get us through.

Another great chapter in the life of Noah and family.

Two friends of mine are teachers, one is at home on furlough and helping her son with his online school lessons and Steve is still at school as normal as he works at a private school and they want all of the fees that they can get, he would have been better off not at school as he would have saved his kids fees as they go to the same school that he teaches at. Some parents have said that some lessons are rubbish and want a refund for them. 😞 They have been doing their lessons outside which the kids have enjoyed and a lot of them are happier than they have been beforehand. 
Stay safe in trumptonia

Excellent chapter! I am so very proud of the man who Noah’s developing into. His interactions with Sky and Lex were touching as there are no problems between them. Their friendship is still strong and will endure. The Ellen show appearance was amazing and profitable for the aquarium and the Bridges to Adelphi program. I’m sorry to see that this amazing story is ending soon, I will certainly miss Noah and those around him. Thank you Geoff for yet another incredible Barnstable story. I am really happy that you are back to teaching. Please stay safe and healthy. North Texas is a dangerous place during the Pandemic, the numbers are climbing at a truly alarming rate. Everyone please wear your masks when you’re away from home and stay home, safe and healthy! I’m definitely looking forward to the next chapter! 😃❤️

Great chapter!  By the way, tonight I discovered that chopping shallots also makes one tear up. That’s my story and I’m sticking to it.

I have such mixed emotions; I will miss this story terribly but I also love the developing conclusion.  Of all of your amazing characters, I think I love Noah the most (including my pianist crush on David).

You also always seem to dredge up musical memories; I haven’t thought of Jubilant Song since we performed it in college sometime during the Pleistocene age.

Please take good care of yourself as the COVID-19 news out of Texas is alarming.  We were doing relatively well in the Bay Area, until people became complacent.

We performed that piece my freshman year... conducted by the composer. Yes, so much of my stories are based on my life... just not "good stuff!"
