A Stroke of the Tash
Chapter three :)
"What's the story with Brendan then Ste?"
"Nothing, we we're just chatting"
"I'm not blind; you are totally in to him aren't you?"
"He's in to me too Ames"
"What…So…He's?…"
"Yep he's gay Amy, well unless he likes the best both worlds…No I'm pretty sure it's men he likes!"
Her mouth was open, kinda like she was catching flies; sometimes she can be so innocent.
"Ste…He's coming back over"
I turned to watch him casually walk over to us, he looked so confident, sexy and so sure of himself. I wish I could be more like that, but it's just not me. My heart rate increases, my palms become sweaty and I cannot control how fidgety I am. I'm definitely hot under the collar and my mouth is dry, I lick my lips and lose myself in how irresistible he is.
"Ye ready Steven?"
What about Amy? I thought to myself, but he hadn't even looked at her, his eyes were totally on me, taking me in. I was fascinated by him and he was by me, our eyes never left each other's until I was distracted by Amy.
"Hello…Hello…Ste! I'm here as well you know"
"Yeah of course, sorry Ames"
I looked at her she was clearly annoyed but I couldn't help myself around Brendan.
"This isn't about you remember Ste?" she said, loud enough for only me to hear.
"We better get going guys, that's if you're still coming?"
"Yeah of course we are, aren't we Amy?"
"Good because we're gonna make this a foursome, if that's okay?"
So we left the pub, the four of us. Amy walked in front with Ciaran, they were laughing and holding hands, I don't think I'd ever seen Amy laugh so much, it was nice to see. Brendan and I just talked mostly, the occasional silence felt comfortable strangely enough, which I was pleased about.
"So what's the deal with you and the lovely Amy?"
"Well we use to be together, she's the mother of my kids"
I looked at his face for some reaction but I didn't see any.
"Ye have kids Steven?"
"Yeah I have two. Do you have any?"
"I have two boys, they are with their ma. I don't get to see much of them unfortunately"
"So…Are…You…Um…Gay?"
He laughs at me, it makes me feel a little foolish for asking, but I had to know for sure, I wanted a piece of this Irish rocker.
"Yes Steven, I am gay! And you?"
"I'm as bent as a nine bob note me"
And laughter filled the air once more. I felt relaxed in his company, it just felt good…right. It didn't take too long to get to the party, probably about twenty minutes.
"So whose party is it anyway?"
"Just a mate of ours, he's also in a band, they made it big about six months ago. He's living the dream now"
We enter a large house, there was music on but it wasn't over powering. There were about thirty people in total and everyone looked like they were having a good time. Amy and Ciaran were sat on the sofa, practically making out; she was a one when she'd had a few. The house was posh inside, everything that I thought it would be. I'd never been in a house like this before; it was definitely how the other half lived.
"What do ye think of the house Steven?"
"It's dead posh init?"
"Let me introduce you to the owner"
We walk in to the kitchen, there are a few couples kissing and I felt embarrassed.
"Hey Mason"
"Brendan Brady you came"
"I'd like you to meet someone. Steven this is Mason, Mason this is Steven"
The first thing I noticed about him was the way his face lit up when he saw Brendan, it made me feel a little uncomfortable, maybe they were lovers, maybe they still are. The next thing I noticed was his eyes; they were mesmerizing, green in colour, I'd never seen eyes like it before.
"Hello Steven" he said simply
"Hiya, you can call me Ste"
He smiled but then turned his attention to Brendan, I felt like a spare part watching them talk, and I hadn't even been offered a drink. He had style and they laughed like really old friends, I couldn't help but feel a little stab of jealously.
"Steven was admiring your house"
Brendan was really trying to involve me in the conversation but Mason had other ideas. It was clear now that there was something between them and I didn't wanna get caught up in all that. I was just about to make my excuses when Brendan made his.
"Anyway its good seeing ye Mason, but me and Steven here are gonna get to know each other a little better"
He must have sensed my want to escape the situation, am I always that obvious?
"Sorry about that, we used to fuck"
"Oh…Right…Um..."
"I stopped it though, he wanted more and I didn't"
"I think he still wants you"
"I think your right Steven"
"Drink?"
"I thought you'd never ask"
He grabs two beers from the fridge and gives me one, our hands touch and I feel a shock go through me, he smiles at me a sexy, beautiful smile.
"Come, I want to show you something"
We head out to the garden, it's quiet and no one else is out there, he walks over to the most amazing Jacuzzi I had ever seen.
"Shall we?" he asks, his tones low and seductive.
I smile shyly, I don't know if I'm ready for this, I don't know if I'm ready for him. Come on Ste take a risk, live a little. And for once I agree with my thoughts.
Please review :) xxxxxx
