A Walk Along the Promenade - 12. Scene Four, A Hotel Bedroom During a Summer’s Night

Shaun rested his head on Harley’s shoulder while Harley’s left arm rested across his own shoulders, pulling their bodies close together. They lay side-by-side in Shaun’s hotel bed, a bed that now seemed much smaller that the large double bed he’d found himself lost in when he’d slept there alone. Their bodies were pressed close together, their flanks and hips and legs pressed each other’s, Shaun’s right leg resting on top of Harley’s left leg, and his right hand lay on Harley’s left hip, his fingertips gracing the edge of Harley’s rich pubic hair.

It was that warm and friendly moment after sex, they were lying together in bed, Shaun’s body felt warm from the sexual activity and slightly sticky with sweet and spilled semen, and Shaun felt so relaxed. He’d missed this feeling as much, though his experience of this moment was much less than his experience of sex (many of the men he’d had sex with had either not wanted to stay with him after sex or he didn’t want to stay with them). They were both lying on their backs but their bodies were so closely pressed together that he could feel each breath Harley took.

Harley’s hand moved from resting on Shaun’s shoulder and began to slowly stroke the hair at the back of his neck. Harley’s fingers moved so slowly as they combed through his thick hair, over and over. It wasn’t just an affectional act, it was also a very relaxing act. Shaun closed his eyes, relaxing down into the warm affection of this moment.

They had so quickly fallen into having sex together after their long kiss. Harley had taken off Shaun’s shirt and they had both taken off their underwear. Harley’s long and uncircumcised cock had sprung forth from his thick, bushy and very red patch of pubic hair. Shaun had been surprised by how erect Harley was, he was just as excited as Shaun was, and how red his pubic hair was, even brighter than the hair on his head.

At first, they had just kissed and caressed, Shaun finally letting his hands explore Harley’s body and caressed those strong muscles under Harley’s skin. This felt so good too. It was not just that he was having sex again, something that he thought that was closed off to him now, it was that they were enjoying each other’s body. They weren’t rushing to grab each other’s cocks, they were kissing and caressing each other’s bodies first, physically enjoying each other’s bodies. Previously, so many times in the past, with the men he’d had sex with, they had rushed to grab hold of each other’s cocks, rushed to sexual stimulation and rushed to orgasm. With Harley it felt different, it felt as if they didn’t have to rush towards anything and Shaun was certainly enjoying that.

When Harley finally slipped Shaun’s cock into his mouth Shaun had felt another rush of excitement, that old and familiar feeling once more. Harley’s mouth had been warm, moist and very inviting, and he sucked in Shaun’s cock very willingly. Shaun had gasped with pleasure, that old pleasure, the moist pressure of Harley’s mouth on his cock, Harley’s tongue stroking over his cock head and slipping under his foreskin. Shaun had almost arched his back with the pleasure filling his groin, the pleasure Harley’s mouth was pulling out of his cock.

He only lasted a handful of moments before the pleasure became too much, then he spun his body around, as best he could, and pulled Harley’s very hard cock into his own mouth. The head of Harley’s cock tasted sharp and salty on his tongue, the taste of sexual excitement and arousal. Shaun remembered that taste, how excited he’d felt when he’d tasted it before. He’d pulled Harley’s cock further into his mouth, enjoying every moment of it.

When Harley’s mouth moved off his cock Shaun felt a moment of disappointment, but this was quickly replaced with surprise and then pleasure. Harley’s lips brushed over his balls, gently kissing the skin there, sending shocks of pleasure up through his groin. But Harley’s mouth didn’t stop there, instead it moved down and down. Suddenly Harley’s hands were parting his buttocks and Harley’s mouth moved in there. Shaun had gasped out loud with surprise and then pleasure, Harley’s cock falling out of his mouth. No one had every kissed him there, no one had ever been so intimate with him before and Shaun loved it. Harley’s mouth was warm, intimate and very exciting. He closed his eye, gave himself up to the pleasure that Harley’s tongue was generating on his anus. He’d seen this performed on enough porn videos but never before had he been on the receiving end of it and he was amazed at the feelings it was generating inside of himself. Though his right leg was bent awkwardly over his stomach, to allow Harley’s head to manoeuvre into position, but Shaun didn’t care. The pleasure was both warm and exciting but also strangely relaxing. He was excited but his body seemed to be relaxing down into the pleasure, into the strokes and caresses of Harley’s tongue. This was amazing, he told himself, the most amazing thing.

When Harley’s tongue left his anus Shaun had felt almost a moment of physical disappointment.

“Can I fuck you?” Harley softly asked him. “I’ve got condoms and lube in my jacket.”

“I… Err…” Shaun mumbled. He didn’t know how to say he was an anal virgin, it sounded so stupid at his age. He’d never been fucked and had never even fucked another man. All those men he’d had sex with, as he’d waded his way through those dating apps, and the most intimate thing he’d done was oral sex.

“I’ll be gentle,” Harley said.

“I’ve never done it before,” Shaun hurriedly said, pushing the words out as quickly as possible to get them out.

“Then I’ll go really slowly,” Harley said.

“Okay… sure,” Shaun said, suddenly feeling that he couldn’t turn this offer down. He’d always envied those men in porn videos who could be easily fucked. Even just pushing his own lubricated finger inside of himself had been exciting enough, always pushing him to a quick orgasm as he masturbated.

When Harley’s cock had finally pushed inside of him Shaun had felt both a hot and tight pleasure and the feeling that his bowels were very full, but he didn’t feel that burning pain he’d read so much about. As Harley’s cock began to move inside of him, slowly at first, short movements in and out, but just the slightest movement and Shaun felt a hot rush of pleasure pulsing through his groin, again and again. Shaun closed his eyes and arched his back, almost pushing his head back onto Harley’s shoulder. This felt so good and so exciting, why hadn’t he done this before? Why hadn’t he trusted another guy enough before to let that guy enter him? But he’d never felt this comfortable with another guy before, even though he had barely known Harley a few hours the man oozed trust and care.

Harley’s strokes suddenly increased and Shaun felt himself groan in response. It was exciting but the heat that Harley’s strokes were generating in his anus were the most exciting part of it. He’d never associated sex with generating so much heat within his body before, heat that radiated out through his groin and up into his chest. His own hand was masturbating himself, working fast on his erect cock, a cock that felt unusually hard under his fingers, trying to keep pace with Harley’s strokes in and out of his anus. It was all he could think about, the sexual pleasure filling his body, it had never been this exciting before.

“Jesus, I’m going to come, I’m going to come now,” Harley cried out, his voice shaking with an almost desperation.

“Me too,” Shaun almost shouted back. And then he did.

His orgasm felt like his body was trying to push something out. His body shook with each shot of semen, his groin almost contracting to shot it out, again and again. He screwed up his eyes, the pleasure felt so strong, rushing through his mind, pulling at his nerve endings. It had never been this good, never so much pleasure from just his own hand or someone else’s. That moment of near blacking out with sexual excitement.

The next moment it was gone, leaving his mind awash with something calming and relaxing as his whole body seemed to be tingling and shivering with the spent excitement.

Then Harley was pulling his cock out of Shaun’s anus. For a moment there was slight resistance, as if his anus didn’t want to lose this cock inside of it, and then Harley’s cock was gone and Shaun felt momentarily empty, another strange and new feeling for him.

It took them another awkward moment to find a comfortable position in this suddenly much smaller bed. Shaun had found his body covered in a fine and sheer layer of sweat, as if he’d suddenly been quickly and strenuously exercising. Was being fucked that energetic? It certainly felt like that. They had finally settled back, laying there side-by-side, their bodies pressed together, Harley’s arm wrapped around Shaun’s shoulders and pulling them closer together. There they had lain for a long and very comfortable moment, certainly comfortable for Shaun.

As he lay there, he realised the pain in his leg had eased. It felt stiff and awkward as it always did lying in bed, he wasn’t able to fully extend it straight as he lay on his back, his left knee obstinately refusing to extend to one-hundred-and-eighty-degrees, but that was nothing new for him. But he was able to find a comfortable position for his leg, lying there with Harley. Was the secret to finally getting on top of the chronic pain in his left leg having bum-sex, finally letting another man fuck him, be inside of him? Was it as simple as that?

Harley’s fingers stroked up the back of his neck and interweaved themselves into the hair on the back of his head, where his hair was its most thick and curly, staying there a moment, before slipping back down his neck and then repeating the movement again. This stroking of the back of his head made Shaun feel very relaxed, almost hypnotically relaxed.

“I’m sorry I didn’t last very long, as I fucked you,” Harley quietly said.

“I still enjoyed it and I really came,” Shaun told him.

“It’s just you were really tight.”

“Sorry,” Shaun said, feeling a stab of embarrassment. Was it his fault that their sex hadn’t lasted very long?

“Don’t be, it was amazing,” Harley said, and then kissed him on the top of his head. Shaun felt a slight shiver of pleasure, the kiss had felt so gentle and intimate.

“It was really amazing. I’ve never had sex like that before. It was so… so exciting,” Shaun said, but the words failed him. He didn’t know how to tell Harley had good it had all been.

“Good, I’m glad you enjoyed it.”

“It was amazing. Can we do it again, in a while?” Shaun asked. For once he voiced his own needs, he didn’t just lay there and let the man he was with set the sexual agenda.

“Hopefully in the morning, your arse maybe a bit sore tonight to do it again. Anyway, I just want to lay like this,” Harley said.

“Do you want to stay the night?” Shaun asked. He didn’t want Harley to leave, he wanted this man to lie next to him all night. He’d never slept the night with another man before, all the other men he’d had sex with had also left as soon as they had come, or else Shaun had taken himself off home as soon as the sex was over, never feeling comfortable enough to stay. Now he felt so comfortable and he didn’t want Harley leaving him, the man’s presence next to him was so comforting.

“Of course I do. Sleeping together is the best bit. I mean sex is great, and fucking you was amazing, but sleeping together is so nice and so relaxing,” Harley said.

“I’ve never spent the night with another man before. I’ve had sex with guys before, quite a few, but I’ve never spent the night with one.”

“And this is the first time you’ve been fucked too. Hey, it’s a night of firsts,” Harley said, his voice lifting up with what sounded like happiness, a smile in his voice.

“Yes, it is,” Shaun replied. He felt so good about that.

They fell silence for another moment, the only movement was Harley’s hand repeatedly stroking the back of his head.

It was Harley’s voice which broke their silence, a moment later, saying:

“I’m so glad you’re gay.”

“Why?” Shaun asked him.

“I’ve fancied you since the moment I saw you going into your room, on Monday afternoon, when you arrived.”

“Why? Why do you fancy me?” Shaun asked him. Harley was so handsome and so fit, what could he possibly have seen in Shaun? It wasn’t just his crippled leg, Shaun knew he was no gay hunk, but he knew his crippled leg had made him almost completely unattractive, or so he’d thought.

“Because you’re cute as hell. You’ve got a lovely, lean body. I wanted to play with your curly hair too. You’ve got such red and kissable lips, and I now know they are really kissable. And you have such a fuckable arse. Your bum is amazing, even in those awful, baggy jeans you wear. I need to get you in some skinny jeans and you’ll knock them dead.”

“You mean that?” Shaun asked, no one had said that to him before. Even with his crippled leg, he tried to keep himself fit by swimming twice or three times a week, it was one of the few exercises he still could do now. But he had never thought, ever thought that he was attractive.

“I wouldn’t have fucked you if you weren’t so cute. I know I let that Todd suck me off last night but I was bored and horny. I wish you had been with me last night.”

“So I could have sucked you off instead?” Shaun had felt Harley’s words push confidence into him.

“No, so I could have kissed your face in front of all those sheep-shaggers there.”

“Oh… I…” Shaun didn’t know how to reply to this.

“Maybe I should take you there tomorrow or maybe we could find something better to do,” Harley said.

“Something better?” Shaun replied.

“Like what we were doing half an hour ago.”

“Oh yes,” Shaun felt his face being to blush with awkward embarrassment.

“Now give me a kiss,” Harley said.

Shaun turned his head towards Harley, who was smiling broadly at him, and they kissed, another long and deep kiss.
