Milestones part 4

Disclaimer in part 1

I know that the story has been pretty tame (well except for Jack being

beaten and that horrible nightmare he had) but I wanted to start off

slow. Can it ever really be all peaches and cream between these two? I

don't think so. so stay tuned for more.

The sun rose on a new day and the two lovers were enjoying laying in bed

after a night spent making love then falling asleep in each others arms.

Jack was gently brought out of his slumber by kisses to his neck, his

cheek, forehead. Finally lips softly met his and he opened his eyes.

"Mornin blue eyes," Ennis kissed him again, "rise and shine rodeo." He

didn't move, he was content to hold Jack in his arms and enjoy the feel

of his fella.

"Mornin cowboy, this is my favorite way to wake up. Better then

coffee." He smiled at Ennis, he needed to get up and take a piss. So he

used Ennis as a support and climbed over him.

Ennis watched his man hobbling to the bathroom, he was enjoying the view

of Jack's bare ass and couldn't take his eyes off the perfectly shaped

cheeks.

The coffee was brewing by the time Jack came out of the bathroom, he'd

taken time to shave and brush his teeth.

It was Ennis' turn to use the john, they kissed as they passed each other.

Jack poured himself a cup and filled another cup for Ennis.

Jack did the cooking that morning, eggs over easy and sausages and toast.

Soon it was time to drive Ennis to work. "I gotta doctor's appointment

this mornin, I hope I can finally get this damn cast off and these

bandages." He indicated his chest.

Ennis still has a mouthful of eggs and he grunted in agreement.

They were soon in the truck and halfway to Stoutamire's ranch when Jack

told Ennis.

"Tell ya what let's go out to eat tonight. I don't know about you but

I'm tired of being stuck in that trailer. Let's take in the town."

Ennis was still somewhat reticent about being seen together but he had

to learn to get over his fear. "Alright, bud, we'll eat out." Ennis

squeezed Jack's hand, it had been their safe way to say goodbye with

affection.

"Have a good day, Ennis, I'll see ya later."

Jack took off towards home. He spent time cleaning up the morning

dishes, checked the time and left for Riverton General hospital. Jack

was sitting in the waiting room for about half an hour before a nurse

came out and told him the doctor was ready for him.

"So, Mr. Twist, how are you feeling?" Dr. Newton asked him.

"Call me Jack, doc. Well I feel antsy, I want to get rid of these

bandages real bad."

"Well let me look you over and evaluate your condition and see what's what."

He took Jack back to x-rays and then back to his office. "Good news,

Jack, your leg has healed nicely so I am going to take off the cast.

And your ribs have healed nicely as well so those bandages can come off

too."

"Wooo hoo!" Jack whooped in happiness. "You don't know how relieved I

am. I was startin to feel like a mummy."

"I think I know the feeling, Jack. Now just lie back and I'll

de-mummify you." He laughed. In no time Jack was looking like his old

self.

"Now I don't want you to do any kind of physical activities yet, no

lifting. You can take short walks but nothing too strenuous. I want to

see you again in about a month to make sure you're all healed up."

"Okay doc, I'll go make an appointment." Jack was beaming from ear to ear.

He left the hospital and was looking around town for a restaurant where

he and Ennis could celebrate his liberation from the bandages. He

never told Ennis but seeing those bandages every day only reminded him

of the beating.

He found a nice steakhouse just on the outskirts of town called the

Black Angus and made a note to ask Ennis if he wanted to go there for

dinner.

By the time Jack made it back to the trailer the phone was ringing. "Hello?

"Hello I'm looking for Jack Twist." The voice on the other end asked.

"I'm Jack Twist."

"HI Jack, its Seth." Seth Greenberg was Jack's lawyer handling the

divorce "I have your divorce papers in front of me. I need to go over it

with you and if you agree with everything you can sign it."

Jack had expected to hear from him but it still came, as a bit of a

shock to realize this was the end of his marriage. "Wow, Seth, this is

moving pretty fast."

"Are you changing your mind?" he asked.

"No no, my marriage is over, been over for a long time. It's time to

make it official."

"Okay, Jack, when do you want to meet?"

"Could you met me here, in Riverton? I'm still recuperating from some

injuries, I don't think I'm up to the long drive." It wasn't a lie, he

couldn't do long drives, yet. Plus truth be told he didn't want to be

too far from Ennis just yet. Jack was still getting used to living with

him. Besides, his man was expecting him to pick him up at work since

they only had the one truck between them and he didn't want to get into

any trouble between Riverton and Casper, like the truck breaking down or

a flat tire. He remembered the doctor didn't want him lifting anything

heavy right now.

"Sure I can come up, Jack. How about," he looked at his appointment

book. "Friday at one."

"Okay, Seth, I'll see you then." He hung up the phone after he gave him

directions to the trailer. He was feeling kind of numb. Everything was

happening so fast that he couldn't get his head around it all.

He looked at the clock, it was only two so he had a few hours before he

had to get Ennis. He decided to do some shopping in town. He picked up

more groceries, some smokes and beer and then he passed by a store that

carried sports equipment and supplies he'd love to get a new tent and

gear for when they went camping, but that would have to wait till they

found a ranch. He looked around some more, was getting some ideas on

other things they might need like shotguns and fishing gear. Maybe

they'd actually go on a real fishing trip and fish for a change.

He was about to leave when he spotted something that would be perfect

for Ennis. He made his purchase and went home.

When he got home there was a message on the machine. He hit the play button.

"Hello Daddy, it's Junior, I'm calling to wish you a happy birthday. I

know you're probably still at work, but I wanted this message to be

waiting for you when you got home. Jenny is at school, we'll call you

later tonight and both wish you a happy birthday. Maybe we can see you

this weekend. I love you, Daddy, bye."

The machine clicked off and Jack stood there stunned. 'Ennis' birthday?

SHIT.' He realized they never did talk about when their birthdays were.

He looked at the gift he'd gotten and was happy at the coincidence.

Jack got busy making a cake for Ennis' birthday. Ennis loved chocolate,

he did too but not as much as him.

In a little less then two hours he had a cake made. He frosted it and

put it in the fridge for later.

He looked at the clock and it was time to get his man. 'His man' he

thought for the umpteeth time. His heart thrilled at the thoughts of

finally being with his true love.

He grabbed the keys to the truck, made sure the trailer was locked and

set off to pick up his lover and go out on the town.

Ennis was waiting for him by the stables, he was looking forlornly at

the horses, one of which was being groomed.

"Hey, cowboy, ready to leave?"

Ennis came over to the truck and climbed in.

"Hey Jack," he sighed.

Jack drove off, once they were on the road he looked over at the sad

expression on Ennis' face.

"What's the matter, Ennis?"

"One of the mares is sick, the doc ain't sure she's gonna make it."

Jack knew how Ennis loved horses and he took it personally if anything

happened to them.

"I'm sorry, Ennis."

Ennis glanced over and finally noticed a difference. "Hey rodeo, ya got

your cast off.

"Yep, and see," he grabbed Ennis' hand and brought it to his middle. "No

bandages neither. Doc said I should still take it easy, no heavy lifting

for a while."

"I'm real happy for ya, Jack." He kept his hand on Jack's middle for a

few moments rubbing the skin. Jack looked at him and their eyes met and

Ennis took his hand away and looked out the window, acting like he was

caught with his hands in the cookie jar.

Jack kept driving towards town and suddenly made a right turn onto an

unmarked dirt road and found a spot out of sight and shut off the truck.

"Whata ya doin, Jack?" before he could say anymore Jack had put his arms

around his head and shoulders and kissed him very ardently. When he was

allowed to come up for air he looked into Jack's loving eyes.

"I just wanted to wish you a happy birthday, Ennis, the proper way."

There was a small smile on Ennis' face.

"Jack how'd ya know it was my birthday."

"Junior called while I was out and left a message on the machine. Said

it was yer birthday. All these years of being together and we don't know

each other's birthdays." He kissed Ennis again.

"I'm glad I found out. We got some celebratin ta do."

"Jack I don't want nothin special." Jack silenced him with another kiss.

"We ain't only celebratin your birthday, we're celebratin my cast comin

off too. So I don't wanna waste any time jawin," Jack had his hand on

the front of Ennis' pants.

"I know how I wanna celebrate."

Ennis had his hand on Jack's crotch too "And I know what I want for my

birthday." He kissed Jack.

It wasn't long before kisses turned into caresses and clothes were

discarded.

Jack positioned himself beneath Ennis and stroked his cock. "Come on,

Cowboy, come get your present." He slowly wrapped his good leg around

Ennis' back, encouraging him to go inside him.

"Jack, maybe it's still too soon."

"Ennis, we've waited long enough." Jack reached over to the glove

compartment and retrieved a tube of K-Y jelly and poured some into his

hand and rubbed a generous amount on Ennis' large erection. "Ennis, I

want ya in me so bad, please Ennis." He lay back against the seat and

offered himself like a present. He turned his head so his neck was

exposed, he knew how Ennis liked to kiss him there and he got turned on

when he did.

Ennis needed no further prompting. He kissed Jack's cheek, his hands on

either side of Jack's head, then moved down to his neck, then he kissed

and sucked on a nipple, his chest, then his stomach and finally Ennis

bathed his cock. Jack's hips arched up into his mouth. His fingers found

Jack's dark passage and slid inside, opening him slowly.

"Oh Ennis, please put that cock inside me." He moaned, pleading with him.

Ennis climbed back on top of Jack and Jack rotated his hips to give

Ennis easier access.

"Oh gawd, Ennis," he grabbed Ennis' face between his hands and kissed him.

Ennis started to move.

"Oh yea, cowboy, give it to me. Harder, yeah , yeah. Oh gawd," he was

panting he grabbed his own cock and stroked. Ennis' hand joined his and

their eyes met, lips locked again and they gyrated their hips. Jack

scrunched his face as he came. Ennis came a moment later.

Ennis sat up and brought Jack up with him. Like a rag doll his head

rested on Ennis' shoulder.

"Jack, ya okay lil darlin?" he kissed his hair and smelled the unique

scent that was Jack.

"Mm," he sighed, "yeah my sweet cowboy," he wrapped his arms around

Ennis' back and hugged him.

"Happy birthday."

They stayed entangled for a while longer then they got dressed and Jack

drove them to the Black Angus steakhouse.

"Dinners' on me, Ennis." They enjoyed some porterhouse steaks.

The waitress came back "Would you boys like some dessert?"

Before Ennis could say anything Jack interjected. "No thanks, just the

check please." She walked away to tally their check.

"Hey, rodeo, I wanted some dessert."

"I got a surprise waitin for you at home, cowboy." He smiled at him.

They got home and after Ennis cleaned up and changed into his PJ bottom

and a white T-shirt, Jack directed him to sit down and close his eyes.

"Jack I ain't a little boy anymore," he said in a grumpy tone.

Jack gave him a look and Ennis sighed and closed his eyes. Jack pulled

the cake out of the fridge, put two candles on it, lit them and put the

cake on the dining table in front of Ennis.

"Open your eyes, darling."

Ennis opened his eyes and was clearly shocked. "Ain't nobody done this

for me cept my little girls."

"Make a wish and blow out the candles."

Ennis blew them out.

"I hope your wish comes true."

Ennis grabbed Jack's shoulders and kissed him, he whispered into his

ear." It's already come true, lil darlin." Jack smiled and kissed him back.

"Hold on I got something else. Jack went to the kitchen counter and

brought the box and gave it to him.

"Jack whatta ya done now?" he asked suspiciously.

"It ain't nothin much, I didn't even know it was your birthday when I

bought it."

Ennis carefully opened it and his mouth dropped open. Lying inside was a

knife that was for whittling.

"I never told ya how much I liked the whittling you did on Brokeback I

thought maybe you might wanna do some whittlin. Ya like it?"

Ennis admired the knife.

"Thank ya, Jack." He kissed him.

They had cake and then the phone rang. Junior and Jenny called to wish

their father a happy birthday and they made plans to come over on Saturday.

Jack was happy to see Ennis smile. Jack had vowed to make Ennis smile

like that more often, he wanted to see him happy. Ennis had such a

miserable, unhappy life till they met and Jack wanted to make sure Ennis

knew what it felt to be happy.

They were both tired and they climbed into bed, Jack took everything off

except his boxers. "So, when's your birthday, Jack?"

Jack looked up at him and gave him a smile then whispered the date into

his lover's ear. "Looks like we got some celebratin to do in December

besides Christmas."

They curled up in each other's arms and fell asleep.
