Thanks, everyone for your AWESOME reviews! :D *huggles* :D
Chapter 4: Arrival
The flight to Minnesota was rather pleasant. Surprisingly, Gustavo had booked them in first class, so their seats had plenty of leg-room and they were comfortable. Carlos sat in the window-seat and James thought it was so cute the way he was constantly looking out the window in awe. He even mentioned once that the people down there looked like ants since there were so far away. Most of Katie's time was spent playing her Nintendo DS, and Kendall and Logan mostly listened to their iPods. The flight lasted a boring three hours that seemed to stretch on forever. But around noon, they touched down in the Minnesota airport. It was a smooth landing and everyone disembarked into the terminal. When the six of them stepped out of the terminal, they looked around and saw four familiar faces over in the small waiting area. They were Logan's mom, James' dad, and Carlos' parents. The minute their eyes made contact, the four of them rushed over and embraced their sons, so happy to see them again.
"Oh, sweetie, we've been so worried about you!" Mrs. Garcia said, embracing Carlos, "We're so happy to have you home!"
After the joyous reunion, everyone headed back to the van they had rented to take them back to the Knight home where the guys were planning to stay while in Minnesota. it would be just like old times when they would have sleep-overs. When they were little, the guys were all but inseparable. They were always over at each others houses, playing, watching movies, and spending the night. And they're the same way now: as close as any friends could be.
About half an hour later, they were pulling into the driveway in front of the Knight house. They had driven from the Duluth airport to their nice little hometown a few miles away. They pulled into the driveway and the guys got out first. It felt so good to be back in their familiar little town. It was all familiar and nice. Grabbing their duffel bags, they ran up to the door, practically bouncing up and down for Mrs. Knight to come unlock the door. She did and they stumbled in the door excitedly. They looked around and found that everything was just as they remembered it being. All except for one thing: hanging in the dining room to the right of the door was a brightly-colored banner that read, 'Welcome Home!'. Smiling, they walked down the hall and put their bags in their rooms. James and Carlos were going to share the guest room, Kendall was going to sleep in his old room, and Logan was to sleep on the couch. At first, Kendall had wanted to relinquish his room to Logan, being polite, but Logan said that he would be just fine on the couch.
After all the luggage was unloaded and everyone was settled in, Mrs. Knight, Mrs. Mitchell, and Mrs. Garcia proceeded to begin to cook dinner for everyone. All the men-folk gathered in the living room to watch a re-run of last night's hockey game. Katie sat in the little breakfast nook in the kitchen, playing her Nintendo DS while the moms cooked. Soon, the sumptuous smell of taco-seasoned meat was wafting through the house, making everyone's stomachs growl with anticipation.
About half an hour later, Mrs. Mitchell stepped into the living room, announcing that dinner was ready. Everyone entered the kitchen and fixed themselves each a 'taco salad', which consisted of laying out a soft burito shell on a plate and layering their favorite fillings on top of it and then mxing it all together. This had been one of the boys' favorite meals when they were little. Their parents' photo albums had numerous pictures of them sitting around the table with messy taco filling all over their faces. This was one of the countless adorable memories of them as little kids.
Everyone seated themselves around the dining room table and they began their meal. As usual, it was just delicious; Mrs. Garcia had used her special taco seasoning recipe, which the boys loved. Everyone talked and caught up on things over dinner. James, Carlos, and Logan informed their parents of the fun adventures they'd had since being in LA, and their parents in turn informed them of the few happenings in their little town. It was a nice way to catch up and just enjoy everyone's company. Their talking and laughing continued well after everyone was finished eating.
As James sat there beside Carlos, he mind drifted and he seemed to tune out everyone's chattering. He was contemplating something very important. He knew that since everyone was together like this, that he and Carlos should tell their parents about their relationship. But he was really nervous; what if they didn't approve? What if they disowned them? Only one way to find out. He reached over and placed a discreet hand on Carlos' knee under the table, getting Carlos' attention.
"Can I see you in the kitchen for a sec?" James asked, almost inaudible.
Carlos smiled and stood along with James.
"We'll be back in a sec." he said as he and James excused themselves.
They stepped out of the dining room, walked down a short hall, and into the kitchen.
"Something wrong?" Carlos asked, noticing a nervous look on James' face.
"There's something I think we should do." James said, taking Carlos' hands in his.
"Here in the kitchen?" Carlos asked, smiling.
"What? No! Not that!" James said, "I think...we should tell our parents about us."
The same nervous look crossed Carlos' face.
"A-are you sure?" he asked nervously.
James nodded, giving his hands a comforting squeeze. Carlos nodded, his heartbeat speeding up noticeably. He and James turned and walked back into the dining room. They stood by the corner of the table beside where James had been sitting earlier. James cleared his throat to get everyone's attention. This got everyone's attention, as they stopped talking and all eyes were on them. Swallowing hard, James began.
"To everyone who we haven't seen in a while, and this is mostly directed at our parents, we have an announcement to make." he said, choosing his words carefully.
There was a short silence as James and Carlos exchanged a glance, and James slid his hand into Carlos' and spoke again.
"Carlos and I are together. We're a couple." he said, "We love each other."
Their hearts were racing a million miles and hour and they held their breath, dreading what their parents' reaction would be. The five seconds it took for them to reply seemed to last an eternity.
"We're so happy for you!" Mrs. Garcia said happily.
"What?" James and Carlos both said simultaneously; they couldn't believe it!
"You're our son and we love you." Mr. Garcia said, "We want you to be happy. And if being with James makes that happen, then that's fine with us."
James and Carlos smiled from ear-to-ear and embraced each other briefly. When they drew away, their gaze shifted to James' dad, who hadn't said anything.
"Dad, are you...okay with it?" James asked nervously.
"Well, I agree with Roberto; you're my son and whatever makes you happy is fine with me." Mr. Diamond said, standing.
He walked over to James and Carlos.
"As long as you two love each other, it's all right with me." he said.
"We do love each other. Very much." James said.
Mr. Diamond smiled and embraced James and Carlos in a group-hug.
"I'm glad you're happy." he said, pulling away.
As he did, Carlos' parents stood and walked over, giving them another group-hug.
"We're so happy for you." Mrs. Garcia said again.
James and Carlos felt much better now that they knew their parents accepted them for who they were. The rest of the evening, everyone mostly sat around the table and talked. After Mrs. Garcia and Mrs. Mitchell helped Mrs. Knight put away the left-overs and clean up the kitchen, everyone went home around 9:00. Needless to say, everyone was thoroughly tired form their hectic day. Shortly after their guests left, everyone 'retired' to their rooms. Katie was happy to be back in her pink pre-teen room.
A couple hours later, James and Carlos were laying under the warm covers in their bed in the guest room. They were cuddled close together in each others arms, resting in their warmth. The house was silent and peaceful.
"This was some day, wasn't it?" James said, "First, we're back in Minnesota, and now our parents are completely fine with us being together."
"I'm so glad our parents are okay with us." Carlos said, "Not that it would have mattered; I love you no matter what."
James smiled, "I love you, too."
There was a short silence before James leaned in and placed a soft kiss to Carlos' lips, gently cradling his cheek. Carlos smiled into the kiss and responded. He felt James tease his tongue at his lips, asking for access to his mouth. Access was gladly granted, and James swirled his tongue around inside the warm depths of Carlos' wonderful mouth. Their tongues clashed, creating an electrifying sensation. They sighed in pleasure and kissed passionately. Finally, they had to pull away in need of air.
"You're the best kisser in the world." Carlos breathed.
"What makes you say that?" James asked, solely just to hear what Carlos would come up with.
He was expecting one of his usual adorable answers, but he received a slight shock when Carlos took his hand and placed it to his groin. James felt something hot and slightly hard beneath his hand. He could feel Carlos slowly becoming aroused through the thin fabric of his grey boxerbriefs. Feeling Carlos like this made James' own member react similarly. He gave a gentle squeeze, causing Carlos to moan softly. He felt Carlos harden a little more.
"Tell me what you want me to do." James whispered sexily.
"Get on top of me." Carlos whispered, his voice dripping with need, "Make me hard."
Due to the hectic-ness of the past few days, it had been almost a week since they had made love, and Carlos was 'suffering' from the effects of that. He needed this. He needed James. And James needed him. He shifted underneath the covers and rolled over on top of Carlos. They moaned when their growing arousals touched. James instantly shifted against him, creating delicious friction through their underwear. Moaning, Carlos spread his legs, which caused James to put more pressure on the part of his body demanding the most attention.
"I just love to feel you getting hard beneath me." James moaned, thrusting his hips harder against Carlos'.
Carlos shuddered at the sexy sound in James' voice, and he involuntarily thrust his hips up against him. James smiled at this and leaned down to whisper in Carlos' ear.
"You wanna try something new tonight?" he asked, nipping lightly at Carlos' neck.
Carlos paused from his movements momentarily.
"What did you have in mind?" he asked, excited to hear what James wanted to do.
"How would you like to top tonight?" James asked.
Carlos froze.
"What?" he asked, surprise.
"Do you want to top me?" James asked.
"I-I um...are you sure?" Carlos asked.
James nodded.
"But...what if I hurt you?" Carlos asked, "I've never topped before. What if I do it wrong?"
"It'll be okay." James said, "I'll talk you through each step."
"I don't know." Carlos said nervously.
"We don't have to if you don't want to, but I promise it'll be okay if we do." James reassured him.
There was a momentary silence as Carlos thought about it. The last thing he wanted to do was to do something wrong and end up hurting James. He would never forgive himself if he did that. But if James was going to talk him through each step, he guessed they could try. Taking a deep breath, Carlos replied.
"Okay." he said, "We can do it. As long as you're sure."
"I'm sure." James said.
With that, they shifted their positions so James was laying in the spot Carlos had just been. He set his legs apart, his feet resting flat on the bed so Carlos had enough room.
"What do you want me to do first?" Carlos asked, kneeling in front of him.
"Take my underwear off." James said, his erection straining uncomfortably against them.
Carlos reached out and slowly pulled James' blue boxerbriefs down his legs and tossed them to the floor. Carlos' eyes fell upon James' gorgeous body displayed before him. The dim light of the lamp on the bedside table seemed to make his sun-kissed skin glow softly. His chest rose and fell as he breathed deeply with excitement. His manhood arched out proudly from his masculine body, making Carlos' own throb at the sight.
"Wh-what now?" Carlos asked softly.
"Take yours off, too." James breathed.
His hands shaking with both excitement and nervousness, he pulled his grey underwear down over his hips, shifting from one knee to the other so he could completely remove them. James felt his manhood twitch at the sight of Carlos' naked form kneeling in front of him.
"G-get on top of me." he whispered.
Carlos crawled forward and covered James' body with his own, lowering himself down between his legs. Their members touched, sending a jolt of pleasure through them both.
"Kiss me." James gasped.
Moaning softly, Carlos leaned down and kissed James passionately. The instant their lips connected, a moan rose from James' lips, and he reached up to run his fingers through Carlos' soft, black hair. This position was entirely new to them and it felt wonderful. Soft moans and sighs spilled from their lips as Carlos shifted their hips together, creating perfect friction. Being on top gave Carlos a new sense of 'exploration', so to speak. He wondered what reactions he could elicit from James if he trailed his kisses lower. So he did.
Pulling away, Carlos placed warm kisses all along the soft flesh of James' neck. A moan slid from James' lips and he tilted his head back in pleasure. He'd never been kissed this way before and it felt so good. It made him tingle with pleasure to feel Carlos nibbling gently at his neck. Carlos was being so gentle and loving, it was so passionate. Carlos moved lower, placing his kisses over James' firm, smooth chest. He licked a slow line up his breastbone, causing a shudder to travel up James' spine. James gasped and squirmed slightly when Carlos moved lower to trail his kisses over his firm washboard abs. Carlos stopped just short of James' member, which just drove James crazy. Leaning up on his hands, Carlos looked at James seductively.
"Oh, Carlos, you tease." James moaned, "Are you sure you've never done this before?"
"Oh, I'm sure." Carlos said, "What do you want me to do now?"
"Prepare me." James sighed, "The lube's in my bag in the corner."
Hopping off the bed, Carlos walked over to where James' duffel bag was laying next to his own in the corner just in front of the small closet. With shaking hands, he retrieved the small, white bottle from the side pocket, and he quickly returned to his position on the bed.
"Get some on your fingers." James said.
Carlos did so and he set the bottle aside. He was almost shaking with nervousness. He had watched James prepare him many times before, so he knew how it was done, but he was still afraid he would do something wrong. James noticed his apprehension.
"It's okay." he comforted, "Just massage it around my opening."
Swallowing hard, Carlos scooted forward closer and he reached down between James' legs. He gently massaged the lube around James' tight opening, making sure he did it thoroughly. James sighed at the contact. The coolness of the lube and the gentleness of Carlos' touches was electrifying. He'd never been touched here before, so this was an entirely new feeling.
"Put one of your fingers in me." he said.
Carlos took a deep breath to steady himself. He curled all but his index finger into a loose fist and he placed it at James' opening. He slowly applied pressure and pushed his finger inside James. A soft gasp escaped James' lips as his opening was breached. it was only slightly uncomfortable since he'd never had anything inside him before.
"Are you okay?" Carlos asked in concern when James gasped.
"Yes." James breathed, adjusting to the feeling, "Put in another."
Carlos made sure he was extra gentle as he pushed in the second finger, stretching James a bit further. This time, James moaned to mask the pain that shot through him. He didn't want to tell Carlos that it was hurting for fear of scaring him from proceeding. He breathed deeply and forced his insides to relax. Carlos felt the muscles relaxing around his fingers, so he did a scissoring motion to open him up further. A louder moan escaped James when his sweet spot was hit.
"Did I hurt you?" Carlos asked, mistaking the moan for pain.
"N-no! Do that again!" James gaped.
Carlos repeated the motion and smiled when James moaned again. He did this a few more times before James spoke again.
"Take me." he moaned.
"Are you sure?" Carlos asked.
"Yes. Please." James said, "I'm ready. It's okay."
Carlos nodded and withdrew his fingers. He picked up the lube again and got some more on his fingers. Using it, he wrapped his hand around his arousal, which had gone down only slightly. When he stroked his member to slick himself, his erection returned fully to full, pulsing vitality. He knew it sounded weird, but only now that he was about to penetrate James did he notice how thick he was. He was almost the same size as James was, and he remembered how much it had hurt the first time they'd made love. He hated to inflict that upon James.
"James, are you sure you want to do this?" he asked.
"Yes, I am, Carlos. I trust you." James said, "Why are you so nervous?"
"It's just that...I know how much it hurts to be penetrated for the first time, and...I hate to put you through that." Carlos explained.
"Carlos, it'll be okay. I can take it." James said, "I want to do this only if you do."
Taking a deep breath, Carlos nodded. He leaned forward over James, supporting himself on one hand. With the other hand, he reached down and placed the tip of his member at James' virgin hole. James nodded, signalling that he was ready. Carlos slowly pushed forward into James' tight hole. He gasped in pleasure as he was slowly surrounded by tight warmth. Meanwhile, James couldn't help but let a whimper escape his lips. It felt as if he were being ripped open. He gripped the sheet in his fists firmly, gasping in pain. Carlos stopped when he heard James whimper.
"Am I hurting you?" he asked in concern.
"I'm okay." James said, though his voice clearly said he was in pain.
"Do you want me to stop?" Carlos asked.
"N-no. Just give me a minute." James said.
Carlos stayed still as he felt James' tight muscles slowly relax around him. Even when they were relaxed, he was still so tight, it felt amazing! When James was relaxed, he slowly pushed the rest of the way in. James enveloped Carlos' entire length and gasped, rocked to his very core by how good it felt being filled by him. He shifted his hips both to signal that he was ready and to gain some friction to his neglected member between them.
"M-move." James gasped.
Nodding, Carlos pulled back slowly, leaving only the head of his member inside James. James moaned softly, feeling the width of him as he moved. Pausing momentarily, Carlos slid slowly back in. He moved faster than before, but still slowly. James gasped in pleasure.
"Do it harder." he breathed.
Carlos leaned down to kiss him, and he thrust again, a bit harder this time. A moan rose from them both and they kissed heatedly. Wrapping his legs around Carlos' waist, James panted in pleasure, gasping Carlos' name.
"Am I doing it good?" Carlos gasped, his thrusting speeding up as his confidence grew.
"Y-yes! Oh, yes! You're doing it so good!" James breathed, clawing at Carlos' back.
Carlos' eyes fluttered shut as he thrusted. He was feeling light-headed from the pleasure of James' inner muscles constantly clenching around him. He wondered if this is what James felt when he was inside him. He hoped so because this was so amazing.
"C-Carlos...t-touch me! Please...touch me..." James gasped, his own member so painfully hard that he could barely stand it.
Leaning up on one elbow, Carlos used his other hand to reach between them and grip James' hard thickness. He stoked him to match his thrusts, which were becoming faster by the minute. Carlos looked past stoking James to between his legs. He watched as he thrusted, his member disappearing inside James repeatedly. It was such an arousing sight. Hardly without thinking, he pushed in at a new angle. A cry of pleasure escaped James' lips as his sweet spot was hit perfectly.
"Do that again!" he moaned, writhing helplessly beneath Carlos.
Smiling with pleasure, Carlos repeated the up-and-forward thrust, and his smile widened when James cried out again. James knew that if Carlos did much more of that, he would surely cum. He just knew it. Carlos repeated this motion several times, his own sense of arousal growing. He was going to cum, too. They were going to cum together. That would be amazing. James' moans of pleasure were slowly replaced by whimpers and sighs of ecstasy. The feeling of Carlos stroking him repeatedly combined with the amazing sensation he was getting between his legs was becoming too much. He just had to cum.
"Carlos...ugh, I'm gonna cum. I'm gonna cum!" he gasped.
"Go right ahead." Carlos moaned in a passion-filled voice.
With a few more well-placed thrusts they soon found themselves crying out and tumbling over the edge into sheer ecstasy. Carlos crushed their lips together to muffle the screams that poured forth from their lips. James whimpered in ecstasy as his insides were flooded by Carlos' white-hot seed. With one more hard stroke, he released his own cum between them and into Carlos' hand. They rode out the last waves of their orgasm, which left them weak and gasping for air. Carlos collapsed on top of James, every muscle in his body going slack. They lay there together, gasping as if they had just run a mile.
They were suddenly interrupted by a loud banging on the wall.
"Will you guys give it a rest? I'm trying to get some sleep!" the heard Kendall yell.
They shared a glance before bursting into laughter.
"Sorry, Kendall." James called back through laughter.
As their laughter died down, Carlos pulled out of James and rolled over onto his back beside him. Reaching over onto the nightstand, James pulled a few tissues out of the Kleenex box and cleaned himself up a bit(as his abdomen was covered with his cum). He tossed the tissues into the waste basket beside the nightstand and turned back over to face Carlos. They curled up in each others arms, cuddling tenderly.
"Oh, Carlos...that was so incredible." James said, lightly running the fingers of one hand through Carlos' hair.
"You really like it?" Carlos asked.
"Of course. You're so amazing." James said, "How was it for you?"
"Perfect. It was perfect." Carlos replied, "You're perfect."
With that, they slowly drifted off into the world of blissful sleep, still lovingly wrapped in each others arms.
A/N: Well, there it is! I REALLY hope you like it! I'm SO sorry it took so long to update! I've been busy with other stories, doing my school-work, talking to friends, and stuff. But even though I was busy, I worked very hard on this chappy! PLEASE R&R! ^.^
P.S. As you may have noticed, I wrote in that Carlos' dad's name was Roberto. For those of you who don't know, 'Roberto' is actually Carlos' middle name. Since they never mentioned what Carlos' dad's name was in the one episode that he's in, I just decided to use that. ^.^ *huggles* ^.^
