Life Goes On - 26. Wow, God thinks we are normal, at least some peoples’ God

Columbus 1976

Reading the morning paper, The Columbus Dispatch, an article sent a feeling of elation through Peter. He called Louise and showed it to her. She kissed her husband, “Wow, God thinks we are normal, at least some peoples’ God.” She immediately picked up the phone and called Ann. Tom answered and she told him to read the article.

Peter reread the article: The General Convention of the Episcopal Church passed the following resolutions:

Resolved, that it is the sense of this General Convention that homosexual persons are children of God and have a full and equal claim with all other persons upon the love, acceptance, and pastoral concern and care of the Church.

Resolved, that this General Convention expresses its conviction that homosexual persons are entitled to equal protection of the laws with all other citizens, and calls upon our society to see that such protection is provided in actuality.

Peter told the other three that the following Sunday he would attend an Episcopal Service and that following the service he would make an appointment to meet with the priest. As the service progressed Peter felt like he was in a Catholic church. The format of the service was similar to the Catholics. While Peter had grown up in the Methodist Church he had attended Catholic services with Tom. He met with the priest the following Tuesday afternoon telling him the same made up story that he had told the Methodist minister years earlier soon after they had moved to their new suburban home. He told the Episcopal priest, Father David, that his brother had moved to San Francisco and lived with another man. He had visited his brother and was shocked to discover they shared a bed. How should he react? Father David replied, “I was brought up to believe that such relationships were an abomination and should be condemned. Now after years of study the Episcopal Church of the United States has determined these ‘Children of God’ like all ‘Children of God’ should have our love and acceptance. You are the first person to confront me on this. While I knew the study had been going on for years I had never really thought about it. As I read the dialog from the Church I am becoming more accepting. Jesus never condemned such relationships. Elsewhere in the Bible where they are condemned I’m becoming to realize it was more of a concern for the survival of the Church. To me it was a sin because couples that were not man / woman could not produce children and keep the flock growing. Today the problem is the opposite, it isn’t not enough people on earth but an increasing amount that maybe someday the earth cannot support. So, while I do not understand how a man can love another man more than a woman these are Children of God, created this way. I would accept both your brother and his partner in San Francisco as part of your family as you would a brother and his wife.” Peter thanked the priest for his honesty telling him he would pray on it and then call his brother and ask him how he and his Joshua were.

The following Sunday the Smith family and the Kowalski family attended the Episcopal Church. Tom, a lifelong Roman Catholic, was amazed at the similarity between this service and the Roman service. Within a month they had joined an adult Bible study group while their four children attended Sunday school prior to the service. Increasingly the church became part of their social life. Their four children, ages 12 to 14, participated in activities of the YPF (Young Peoples’ Fellowship) activities.

Peter and Tom discussed the temptations offered in this congregation with its many young couples, mature handsome married men and a variety of single men. They agreed that they would resist any temptation to get ‘involved’ with anyone associated with the church. This vow of celebrity was highlighted when Tom agreed to coach the teen basketball team. He made an effort to never be in the locker room while the boys showered and dressed. If at some future time his true nature were become known, no one would be able to say he ogled the boys when they were naked. Peter and Louise joined the church choir. While both had been active in musical pursuits in high school and somewhat in college their instruments were now in the back of a closet not having been played in years. Neither of their children showed any interest in music. Both had received lessons for a year: PT on the trumpet like his mother and Louise Ann had saxophone lessons. But after a year it was obvious they did not have the desire to continue so the parents agreed to the ends of their musical pursuits. Louise and Peter had met in 1956 where both played in the high school band: he clarinet and she trumpet. Peter, a baritone, sang next in the last row of the choir next to Tyler. He knew little about this handsome man about his age and did not understand the relationship between Tyler and the teenage Hispanic, Juan, who occasionally came to church with him and played on Tom’s basketball team. When there was a shortage of music, Tyler and Peter shared the same sheet of music, each holding one side of it. While Peter tried to hold back his feelings the closeness to this man was titillating.

…………………………………………….

About once a month Peter met Tom after work and they visited Club Columbus Baths. While they rarely got involved with any others at the bath house, they enjoyed the atmosphere, eye candy and watching the activity in the orgy room. After time in the steam bath where each was usually groped, usually with enjoyment but not permitting any strange lips below the hips, they would go to their room and enjoy each other. Making love on the narrow platform bed in their tiny cubical hearing the sounds of men nearby having tryst in their identical cubicals resulted in an erotic atmosphere. One Thursday evening as they roamed the halls with towels wrapped around their waists Peter passed a room with its door open and two men sitting on the small bed wearing towels around their waists. Checking the guys out he saw Tyler, his choir mate, was one of the men. Realizing he had been seen it would be ridiculous to ignore him. Standing in the doorway Peter said, “What is a nice boy like you doing in a sleazy place like this?”

Tyler laughed, “The same as you. Meet my friend Alex.” A hot, handsome, Hispanic man leaned forward and shook both Peter’s and Tom’s hands as they introduced themselves. “Alex is my special friend. Are you two casual hookups or in a relationship?”

For the next hour the four sat on the narrow bed platform discussing their lives. Wanting to dispel any illusion that they were cheating on their wives they explained meeting in high school in 1956 and coupling with a pair of girls with similar desires.

Tyler and Alex summarized their togetherness. They had met eight years earlier at a bar and have lived together for seven years. Alex had been married and had a son, Juan. When his wife discovered his proclivity for men she left him and moved back to Puerto Rico leaving their son, Juan, with him. While Alex had no interest in church involvement he encouraged his son to participate in the youth activities. Alex, the son of parents from Puerto Rico, had been born in the USA. When he was young his parents who attended Catholic mass every Sunday encouraged their son to be an altar boy. They were thrilled that the priest took a special interest in him. When Alex was thirteen the pious priest introduced him to man sex, first just playing with the young man’s dick and masturbating him. This led to blow jobs. He encouraged the boy to return the favors. By the time Alex was sixteen the family’s spiritual guide was bending over and having the teenager fuck him. Alex explained that he was very conflicted by the situation. He enjoyed the attention and sex from this handsome priest who was probably about thirty at the time. He knew it was wrong but had become addicted to it. He then somberly said, “If I hadn’t had the desire for men the relationship probably would have damaged me for life. There was no love involved, just sex. Tyler was the first man I met who I felt something for other than desires of the moment. He is a good man and wonderful second father to Juan.”

Following their conversation the four visited the orgy room and observed a gang fuck. In the dark room they noted a guy with a somewhat fat ass kneeling on the platform in the middle of the room. He was being fucked doggie style by an older man. As the guy grunted and pulled out a thin guy about forty with a pumped up small dick, no more than 4 inches (10 cm) hard moved in. It appeared he could not deeply implant his little dick and appeared to be fucking the ass cheeks that he held tight. Following his quick completion a trim, grey haired handsome guy probably in his fifties or maybe older stepped up. With his trimmed beard, grey hair on a mostly bald head, no other body hair except a distinguished grey mat on his chest and crown of hair over his masterpiece, sparkling tight blue eyes, sweet smile, six pack abs without an ounce of old man fat, muscular arms and legs, and the bubble ass of a young man he was a senior citizen Adonis. He rolled a rubber onto his massive piece, the first man to use protection. His magnum weapon appeared to be at least 8 inches (20 cm) of thick cut meat. This older gentleman moved in behind the kneeler. Placing his magnum instrument against the cum dripping hole he gently shoved in. The guy on his knees screamed, “You’re ripping me open.” The old man held tight and after waiting a few moments for the willing ass to adjust to this magnificent piece he gently pulled back and slowly plunged in again. Suddenly the fuckee screamed again, but his time it was a very different message, “FUCK ME, DEEPER, HARDER.” His fucker responded with a deep thrust followed by completely pulling out and then violently shoving back in. The assault continued as the fuckee cried in pleasure as he was attacked. Suddenly the fuckee cried out I’M CUMMING. Although his dick had not been touched his body trembled as he unloaded onto the carpeted platform. The gentleman pulled out. Holding his rubber covered hard dick he asked, “Anymore takers?”

Tom whispered into Peter’s ear, “That would certainly be a treat.”

Peter replied, “No way. That would tear me open and make my hole unavailable to your normal large piece during an extended period of ass convalescence.”

An average sized guy that appeared to be no older than eighteen, the youngest age allowed in the baths, stepped up to the platform and laid on his back. “Fuck me, grandpa.”

The mature man, probably three times the age of the twink moved in, placed the teenager’s legs on his shoulders, reached for some lube and greased both his piece and the young hole. Again he gently shoved in. The teen’s only response was, “Harder Grandpa.” Following a long vigorous fuck grandpa pulled out, ripped the rubber off his dick and jacked a load onto the teen’s semi-hard dick. Then using his hand he finished the boy off who shot a massive load onto his smooth hairless chest. Later they saw the teen and grandpa exchanging phone numbers.

Following the erotic show the four showered together checking out each other. Both Alex and Tyler had impressive soft cocks: Tyler’s was cut and Alex’s natural. Each couple returned to the privacy of their cubical. Peter and Tom had an intense session with Peter shooting his load onto his own chest as Tom fucked him and filled him.

As the group assembled at the next choir practice Tyler quietly told Peter, “It was nice meeting the real you.” Peter replied with a ‘likewise’. With both maintaining their straight persona no one would suspect these two men had shared their deepest secrets a few days earlier.

Three weeks later after choir practice Tyler mentioned that he was going out of town on business leaving Sunday evening. He hoped thirteen year old Juan would be OK as his father would be working nights that week.

Peter told Louise about Tyler’s concern as they drove home after the practice. She suggested they invite Juan to stay with them. She was sure PT would not mind sharing his room for two nights. (Little did they realize how much PT would enjoy sharing his room with any boy).

In PT’s room they set up a folding bed borrowed from Tom and Ann who had purchased it years earlier for an overnight guest. They invited Alex and Juan to dinner Sunday evening prior to Alex’s night shift on the Columbus Police Force. After dinner PT, his twin sister Ann, Sean (son of Ann and Tom, same age as PT) and Juan watched TV. After watching Hawaii Five-0, they reluctantly all went upstairs to their bedrooms. Actually PT was not at all reluctant. At age thirteen Juan was a year older. PT had seen Juan’s dick when they showered after church basketball practice and was looking forward to having a closer inspection. Other than PT and Sean, Juan was the only boy on the team with a natural dick like his. Much to his disappointment Juan slept in his underwear never exposing himself.

The next evening the boys did homework in PT’s bedroom. Juan sat at the desk while PT laid on his bed reading an assigned book. Juan turned around and in a very serious voice said, “Want to see something special? But first you have to promise you won’t tell your parents or my dads about what I showed you.”

Of course a twelve year old boy wanted to see something secret and agreed with no hesitation.

“My friend Albert brought this to school today. His father has a pile of them hidden in the back of his closet. He told me I could keep it a couple of days.” Juan took the January 1976 issue of Playboy out of his book bag. He then opened it to the centerfold, Diana House – playmate of the month. While PT was fascinated by the photos, Juan appeared awe-struck. Her milky white skin, perfectly formed boobs and triangle of thatch hair was a twelve and thirteen year old boys’ wet dream, if you were into that kind of stuff as it was assumed all boys were. While they examined the photos PT noticed a bulge growing in Juan’s pants. The thought of a hard Juan, not a playmate’s pussy, caused a bulge in PT’s pants. Juan laughed as he pointed to PT’s condition, “Looks like we both have the same thoughts.” PT thought to himself, ‘Little do you know what the cause of my bulge is’.

Juan shocked PT when he said, “Let’s jerk off to this beauty.”

Naturally PT said, “Yea, let’s do it.” He then walked over to the door and locked it. Juan suggested they turn on the radio to hide any ‘strange noises’. PT grabbed a box of Kleenex handing a tissue to Juan. They sat on the bed with the magazine between them. Juan lowered his pants and underwear displaying a hard natural dick. PT was thrilled that although his dick was a year younger it was of equal size. Juan quietly warned him to be careful and not get any sticky stuff on the magazine as he wanted his friend to share others with him. Pretending to stare at the magazine, PT eyed Juan’s piece. He lowered his head so the focus of his eyes could not be detected. He wasn’t too worried that he might be caught checking out Juan as he assumed his friend was more concerned with the pussy in the photo than PT’s sightlines. Soon Juan was pumping hard and then spewing a hefty load of white cum into the Kleenex. The sight of the pulsating dick unloading brought PT over the hill and he proudly filled his tissue. After wiping their dicks with additional tissues PT announced he would hide the cum laden tissues at the bottom of the kitchen trash can. As they zipped up PT announced, “That was mind blowing. Give your friend a big thanks. Let me see any more that he shares”.

After they had gone to bed an excited PT laid there thinking of the stuff pouring out of his friend’s dick. He soon was holding his hard cock under the covers in the dark room. Hearing what he thought were the silent snores of Juan he felt it was safe to relive the experience. He always kept the shoes and socks he had worn that day at his bedside for such occasions. He reached for a sock and placed it over his hard boy dick. As he stroked he did not think of the playmate of the month but of Juan’s uncut dick. Little did he realize that the sounds of Juan were not snores but heavy breathing from the thought of the centerfold. Juan heard PT’s movements and knew exactly what he was doing. The tissue box was on the desk next to his bed and he quietly took a few sheets and silently pumped along with PT. Following their clandestine jerking the boys had a peaceful sleep with similar in some ways and very different in another way dreams.

About once a month Alex had evening police shifts. When he had a late shift on a Thursday Louise invited Tyler and Juan to their house for a quick supper prior to choir practice. Juan and PT would stay at the house to do homework or more likely watch TV while not being under the watchful eyes of their parents, or even more likely enjoying the scenery in an issue of Playboy that Juan concealed in his book bag. PT told Juan about his farm visits. While working on a farm did not interest Juan when PT told him about spying on Junior and his girlfriend while they fucked in the hayloft Juan fantasized hiding in the store room just a few feet (three feet equals about one m.) from the action.

A few months later Peter announced he would be driving to Pleasant Valley to visit his parents the following weekend. Louise would not be going as she had been asked to speak to a group of high school science students interested in studying at Ohio Wesleyan. PT asked his father if he could go with him. Of course Peter invited his son. Then PT asked if they could leave Friday afternoon and stay at the farm. When he father agreed PT had another suggestion. Could they take Juan with them since he had never visited a farm. Peter called Juan’s father, Alex, and made the request. Alex replied that he would talk to Juan and call him back. Ten minutes later Alex called and had a further suggestion. He asked if in addition to Juan, he and Tyler could also visit the farm. Peter had no objections and they made plans to depart as soon as the boys got out of school Friday afternoon. The five: Peter, Tyler, Alex, PT and Juan departed Columbus in the Smith family station wagon. Taking the recently completed Interstate Highway 71 the drive took less than two hours.

Rachel (David’s mother) had insisted they all have dinner at their home. The adults including Rachel and Paul Senior, Uncle Will, Paul Junior and his girlfriend, Mary (also his fuck partner), who had helped prepare the meal, sat at the dining room table while PT, Juan and David happily sat at the kitchen table. During previous visits to the farm PT had kept Dave up to date on the details of his looking at Playboy magazines with Juan. David was interested in meeting and seeing this boy who was a year older than he and PT. At the dinner table in the kitchen David told PT and Juan he had some really good stuff to show them. He had found his brother’s hidden stash of magazines. He explained that the pictures were not just of naked women but of men and women doing it in many different ways. In one a guy was even fucking a woman while another guy was standing over him with his dick in the mouth of the guy fucking. My brother discovered I had found his magazines. “He told me I could look at them but that if our parents ever found out I should tell them I found them in a trash can behind the church. You know what else he told me? He saw me peaking through the spaces in the boards of the storeroom next to the hayloft last month. He said he didn’t care if I watched just as long as Mary never found out. If she did he would cut my pecker off. You can be sure I am really careful when I spy on them. He is really proud of his fucking. He even moved closer to the storeroom last time so I could see better. Now before he fucks he gets on his knees with Mary on her back and leans in between her legs. I think he is licking her pussy. She tells him how good it feels. Then he pulls her up and he lies on his back while she sticks his dick in her mouth. Then he opens the little package and takes out what he told me is called a ‘rubber’ and she rolls it on him and then he fucks her. You can imagine what I am doing with my hand while he does it.”

The fathers had not considered having David sleeping in the farmhouse as he could sleep in his own room at his house. When PT asked if David could sleep over since they would get up early to milk the cows Uncle Will immediately suggested, “That would be no problem. I have some extra blankets that he can use as a pad to sleep on the floor of PT and Juan’s room.” As he said this PT smiled at the old man who winked back at his teenage friend. PT thought, my old Uncle sure knows what I want.

They remained at Paul and Rachel’s home for another hour. While Rachel and Mary, Paul Junior’s girlfriend, straightened up the kitchen the three boys offered to wash and dry dishes. PT was very conscious that he should make a good impression with David’s mother so she would encourage his visits (and playtimes with David). The father’s assembled in the living room discussing the presidency of Jimmy Carter. While liberal thinking Peter, Tyler and Alex all supported Carter’s agenda during the first months of his presidency Paul, a conservative farmer lamented, “He might be a peanut farmer from a conservative state but I don’t see his policies helping us or our children’s future”. Not wanting to get into a political argument with a friend Peter changed the subject to another topic, The Cleveland Indians (baseball team), and their prospects for the upcoming season. While Peter did not follow professional sport teams he knew a mention of the Indians would get Paul’s mind off politics as he was a serious Indians supporter.

By the time they got to the farm house it was after nine pm (21.00). David brought a bag full of magazines. He told the fathers, “I thought I would share these comic books, Mad Magazines (a popular satire magazine) and Boy’s Life (Boy Scout magazine) with my friends”. He held the bag in a way that the magazines could easily be seen. However, hidden in the bag were the pornographic magazines borrowed from David's older brother. With David carrying the magazines PT and Juan carried the blankets Uncle Will gave them to be used as a sleep mat for David.

While the fathers and Uncle Will settled in the living room for beer and conversation the boys went up to their room. The sleeping arrangements had Alex and Tyler in a room on the second floor of the farmhouse with a double bed. Peter would sleep alone in another room and PT, Juan and David would share the room with twin beds that PT normally shared with David.

As soon as they entered their room David distributed comic books and the other magazines for the boys to hold. He then pulled out the ‘adult magazines.’ PT and Juan were both shocked and astounded by what they saw. Never had the now thirteen year old PT and fourteen year old Juan imagined such activities could happen. These were not the carefully posed models of Playboy showing perfectly formed tits and fur covered pussies. These were real people. The detailed close ups of lady parts were of great interest. All the men had supersize dicks making the boys feel somewhat inadequate. Some were cut and some natural. There where photos of guys fucking the girls in various positions, guys getting blow jobs, fingers in pussies, and an amazing photo of a guy on his back fucking a girl up the ass while another guy fucked her. Probably the most interesting was a series of photos starting with a girl on her knees giving a standing guy a blow job, in the next photo he was jerking off aiming toward her mouth, then another of him shooting cum into her smiling lips and finally a photo of her face covered with his juice.

At this point PT said, “I got to take care of myself before I mess my pants.” All three dropped their pants and underwear and kneeled facing each. They kept the magazine with the girl with the cum covered face on the floor between them. David warned them to be careful and not get any stuff on it or his brother would have a fit and forbid him to ever touch one of his magazines again. While Juan concentrated his eyes on the girl both David and PT clandestinely eyed their straight one year older friend jacking and cumming.

Being teenage horney boys their cummings did not sedate their interest in the photos. In less than ten minutes they were again as some say ‘pulling the pud’. Just as Juan began spurting another load on the floor there was a knock on the door. PT’s father called out: “We’re about to have ice cream and brownies David’s mother made, care to join us.”

“”We are coming Dad” PT replied. Actually PT would not be cumming as the knock on the door caused his dick to immediately deflate as did David’s. Remembering his own teenage years Peter wisely did not just open the door. While he did not suspect anything was happening other than boy talk and perusing comic books he was not going to invade their privacy. Juan cleaned his cum off the floor. This load was of lesser quantity and not shot halfway across the floor as the first loads of all three had. None of the boys had jacked in the past twenty-four hours so the pent up load and inspiration from the revelations in the magazine photos had resulted in near record amounts and distances for all.

PT took a Mad Magazine downstairs to show his father. To make sure his father thought they were just reading regular magazines in the bedroom he asked his father if he had read Mad Magazine when he was a kid. Peter laughed, I saved my nickels and eagerly bought each issue the day it arrived at the drug store magazine rack when I was your age. My mother did not approve of it so I kept it hidden. When my father found out I was buying it he would borrow them. Sometime when mom was not home we would discuss articles together. In college on the first day of class in one of my history courses the professor asked each student to write their name on a sheet of paper he passed out. He then read the names and each student said ‘here’ when called. In the middle was the name ‘Alfred E. Neuman’. Three times he called out the name with no answer. Everyone in the class was holding in laughter as the clueless professor stated the name of Mad Magazine’s iconic Alfred E. Neuman. It was too bad that the professor did not realize how impressionable this magazine was on young people on their views of national and world events. As he said this Peter thumbed through the magazine. Finding a satirical comic strip about Anita Bryant’s anti-gay remarks resulting in 200,000 protesters marching in San Francisco he hoped the boys had seen it. Not wanting to get into gay talk over brownies and ice cream he turned the page planning to borrow the magazine later.

Back in the privacy of their room PT immediately announced as he opened to the photo of the guy coming on the face, “I must finish what I started.” David joined him while Juan who had already had two cummings that evening and no apparent interest in watching guys jerk off studied one of the other magazines.

David announced that they should get some sleep as he and PT were getting up early to milk the cows and send them to the pasture. He asked Juan if he wanted to join them. Juan gave an eager reply of ‘Yes’ while David set the alarm clock. As David started to roll out the blankets Uncle Will had given them to make his bed mat PT said: “That will really be uncomfortable. If you promise to not snore, kick me, or make a cum mess in the bed you can sleep with me.” As soon as the lights were turned out Juan announced, “I will not be able to sleep until I make one more tribute to the magazines.” He could be heard reaching for a tissue. David got out of bed, grabbed a handful of tissues and while Juan’s bed rocked the other two jerked each other off in the dark room.
