LUCIANO AND MAYER
The company of Gentlemen,
Luciano Grimaldi sank to his knees and uttered a small cry of grief, He had just gotten word from home that his beloved father Damian Grimaldi had succumbed to a unknown illness the night before. His mother Lillian had sent word to her eldest son just this morning,
It was in this state an hour later when Luciano's roommate Mayer Whitingham had found him slumped on the floor of their suite of Rooms.
Mayer had hurried to Luciano's side and had placed a hand on his shoulder, " What is it Luciano? What has happened?" Luciano looked at his companion through his tear stained face " It is from my mother with news that my father has died," Gently Mayer helped him up and got him settled on their small couch. Mayer then sat down beside him " What can I do to ease your pain Luciano? May I get you some brandy/" Numbly Luciano nodded as Mayer rose and went to get the bottle of Napoline brandy he kept in his trunk for medicinal proposes . He returned to Luciano with the glass he had poured " Here Luciano Drink this" He helped Luciano take a sip of the brownish liquid. As he did he felt his companion's hands tremble.
Mayer took the glass and set it down on the end table, He put his hands on Luciano's shoulder, Luciano looked at him and then with out warning he placed a kiss on Mayers lips, Mayer found him self drawn in to the kiss, As he did he put his hands on Luciano's face , This kiss was like nothing Mayer had ever experienced in his life,
Suddenly Luciano pulled away and looked at him, The look was of sheer terror, "Oh Mayer I am so sorry, that should not have happen I I ."' Mayer looked at him puzzled " Luciano you did not force me to do any thing I didn't want to do And you have nothing to be sorry about," Luciano looked away "Mayer I have a confession to make." Mayer nodded " Go on Luciano what is it? Luciano looked at him " I do not enjoy the company of Young ladies," he said shyly, Mayer looked at him and almost knew what was about to be said, Luciano licked his lips dryly "Mayer I prefer the company of Gentle men " Mayer tilted his head before he spoke " Would it shock you if I were to tell you So did I?"
Luciano looked at him " You mean??" Mayer nodded his head " Yes we are men of the same type, and I fell in love with you the very day we both moved in here together, I have longed for that kiss, " he rose and held out his hand, " I wish to make love to you my Luciano." Luciano rose and Mayer took him to his bed, after locking the door,"
After they lay together and took a vow to always protect their relationship from the out side world, and keep it safe from prying eyes,
The end
