The content below is meant for mature readers only. It does contain graphic details, and it involves two males conducting in a sexual behavior and manner. If this offends you in any way, please read no further.
Part I
Luke is a wealthy stock broker on Wall Street, Seth is in advertising. Both of them worked long hours, but they had always managed enough time for love-making and quiet time together. Luke stood 6'2", dark brown hair, light brown eyes, he had a nice muscular body, and pretty well endowed in that department. Seth is a little short at 5'8", blonde hair, light blue eyes, a nice/average body, and pretty girthy as well. Luke has been putting in extra hours on his new account, and his absence at home was more and more noticable. Meanwhile, Seth sits alone in a large Manhattan penthouse, which overlooks New York City. Seth looks out the window and below at all the moving cars...he really missed Luke. Not just sexually...but mentally and intellectually as well. Almost as if a part of him had just died completely inside him. 2 am rolls around, Seth falls asleep watching television. Luke turns the key into the lock and opens the door. Luke tiptoed into the penthouse, trying not to wake Seth up. "Luke?" Seth said, groggily. "It's me honey," Luke said, gently. He kisses Seth on the forehead, "go back to sleep." "I've been waiting for you to come home,"Seth says to Luke. "I know. I'm sorry, I was working--" "--overtime,"Seth finished and adds disappointingly. "I know." "I'll make it up to you honey," he said. "I promise! But right now, I'm really involved with this project. It can be huge, I could get a promotion." "I know,"Seth chimed in. "Sometimes I have to make a few personal sacrifices, but it'll all be over soon, promise!" "I just wish I wasn't one of those personal sacrifices!" Seth exclaims, beginning to cry. "Honey!" Luke said, bring Seth closer to him. "You're not, you're #1 in my heart." Seth could smell Luke's aftershave in his shirt, he felt a little bit better already. "I don't feel like #1." "This will all be over soon,"Luke says, convincingly. "And we can get back to our lives." Seth wasn't convinced, "Just hit the shower and get some sleep." "But--" "No buts," Seth replies. "You smell, just go and take a shower." Luke was hurt, Seth could see it through Luke's face. Seth turned away, Luke got up and disappeared into the bedroom. Seth could hear the shower turning on, and he could hear Luke's sweet little humming and smell the scent of his body wash through the penthouse. Seth wiped his tears with his long sleeve PJs, crawls into the large king size bed and falls asleep.
Part II Seth could feel Luke getting up for work already, Seth just groaned a little bit and rolled over. Luke got up, pulled up a pair of sweats from the floor, and headed out to the kitchen for breakfast. Luke began fixing his morning cup of coffee, when Seth entered the kitchen for some orange juice. "Morning honey," Luke says, nervously. "Mmhmm" Seth replies, while drinking his orange juice. "How about reading the morning paper together?" Luke suggested. "Do you actually have time to do that?" Seth retorted, cooly. "I'd love to Luke, but I have to head to the office early for a client, I'm just going to ditch breakfast and hit the showers." "Ok,"Luke says acknowledgingly. Luke felt like crying. He knew his overtime hours really caused a defect in his relationship with Seth, and he could tell Seth was hurting too. (Even through his sarcasm and bitchy comments) Luke decided to skip breakfast and jump into the shower with his lover. He walked into the bathroom, took off his clothes, opened the curtains and stepped in. "What are you doing?" he ask, curiously. "Taking a shower," Luke replied, nonchanlantly. "You can wait. can't you?" Seth replied. "I wanted to take one with you..."Luke replied, with his sad puppy dog eyes. "Don't look at me that way," Seth said, easing down on his anger. "You know I always give in with your puppy dog look." "I know," Luke replied. "That's why I'm doing it." Seth smiled, Luke kissed him. Seth melted into his arms, and they kissed for a few minutes underneath the spraying water. Seth's tounge dove deeper and deeper into Luke's mouth, Luke savored the taste of his lover. He missed all the romantic things they use to do together. Luke finally broke the kiss. "Let me make it up to you," he began. "Luke..."Seth said. "It's ok, I guess I'll have to accept your hours." "No, you don't. I really really miss you, how about dinner tonight? On me." "It better be on you," Seth said, jokingly. "Alright dinner tonight." "Alright then," Luke said. "We'll meet here at 7pm." "Ok," Seth agreed.
Part III The day went on, Seth managed to get home at 6:45, despite traffic. Luke was still at work. Go figure, Seth thought. Seth went into the bedroom to freshen up. He shaved again, changed, and groomed himself...he was ready by 7:05 pm. Still no sign of Luke. Maybe he got stuck in traffic, Seth thought. It's possible. Somehow even Seth couldn't ease or convince that nauseating feeling inside of him. Seth glanced at the clock again, 7:45. He forgot, Seth thought sadly. He forgot our date tonight. He had to go planning it too, getting me all excited. At 8:05, Seth could feel the waterworks coming on. He might have a logical excuse this time, the voice inside of Seth side. Yeah right, the other voice said. He's probably working over time. Seth went over to the liquor cabinet and pour himself a nice glass of scotch. Seth gulped the whole cup down his throat, he could feel the burning feeling inside his chest. The phone rang. Maybe that's him, thought Seth. Seth picked up the phone, "Hello?" "Hey Seth." It wasn't Luke, it was his co-worker Mike. "Hey Mike," Seth said, more disappointed. "Seth, I have Laura (his other co-worker) on conference on Line 2," Mike said. "I think you two better get back down here to the office quick, there's much to celebrate." Seth promised to be there in 20 minutes. Well, at least I have something to do now, Seth thought. He grabbed his coat off the coat stand by the door and left for the office once again. Seth got there in about 20 minutes, Mike led him into a large conference room full of people. Laura was sitting in her usual chair, nervous and excited. "Seth," his boss said. "I'm glad you could join us." "Me too sir," Seth replied. "Please," the boss said gesturing. "Take a seat." "Alright." Seth took the vacant seat next to Laura, and Mike sat next to him. "I have looked over all three of your portfolios, and I must say I'm rather impressed," their boss began. Laura, Mike, and Seth said their thank yous. "We are planning on opening a new branch of this office in Paris, France," he said. "And it would be an honor to me, if you three would start it for us over there in Europe." Laura, Mike, and Seth sat astonished. "You want us to start the company up over there in Paris..." Mike said, a little shaky. "Exactly, consider yourselves co-presidents of the new firm. Do you accept?" "I would really appreciate it, if I can have a few days to think things through sir," Seth said. "No problem, I'll give you three a few days to think things over," the boss said. "I'll need your decision by then. Congratulations." THe whole room broke into an applause for the them. The meeting broke up, and everyone headed towards home. "I can't believe it!" Laura exclaimed. "Starting up the company in France, it's been my dream to actually start up one these firms." "Plus," Mike added. "Our salaries almost triples." "We make pretty decent paychecks now, don't we?" Seth asked. "We do," Laura agreed. "BUt twice as much wouldn't hurt." "You're not actually going to turn it down, are you Seth?" Mike asked. "I don't know..."Seth said, uncertained. "That's right..."Laura said. "Luke..." "Oh yeah," Mike chimed in. "Luke..." "Well, how about a round of beer before heading home?" Laura said, breaking the tension. "Sounds good," Mike said. "Jump into my car, I'll be the designated driver I guess." Laura and Seth got into Mike's car, and they were off to the bar.
Part IV
Seth got home at 12:30, he had a few rounds of beer with Laura and Mike. They talked about every aspect, the pros and cons of taking this offer. So far...the pros outweighted the cons. He could see the light in the bedroom still on. I see Luke got home alright, Seth thought bitterly. He hung up his coat and headed for the bedroom. Luke was reading his book in bed, he was wearing his glasses. Seth thought Luke looked really sexy when he wears those glasses. Seth took one look at him, and he went into the bathroom. Luke took this as a cue to plead for forgiveness, he went into the bathroom after Seth. "Seth..."Luke began. "Don't even try to get yourself out of this one Luke," Seth said, his anger rising. "Just shut up and leave me alone!" "I had a meeting..." he put in. "Yeah, so did I Luke. But here's the thing, I put it off because i put US before it. I made a commitment with someone, and I usually keep all my commitments. "I know, and please just let me make it up to you..." "Luke, that's what you said LAST time...and you stood me up. Case closed," Seth said, putting his contacts into his containers. He applied the eyedrops into his eyes, turned off the bathroom light, and headed for the bed. LUke dashed past Seth and bounced onto the bed. He looked so sexy in his Calvin Klein's boxer briefs, however, Seth had to look past this. "Turn off the light Luke, I'm exhausted." "Alright," he said, finally. He got up and turned off the light. Seth slept as far from Luke as possible, and Luke could feel Seth pulling away from him. What have I done? Luke thought to himself. I'm hurting the one who means the most to me. He tried to hug Seth, but Seth pushed him away with his arm. Luke could hear Seth crying in his pillow, Luke turned away from Seth and let out his own tears. Seth ignored Luke the whole morning, Seth even locked the doors when he went into the shower. Seth got dressed and went straight out the door to work. "Morning Seth," his secretary, Alice said, as he walked in the door. "Morning Alice." "You look like you've been crying, everything alright?" she asked, concerned. "I would think this promotion and offer would make you happier." "Oh it has Alice, it's just there's trouble in paradise," he replied. "Oh..."Alice replied. "Well you can talk to me whenever you need to, ok?" "Alright, thank you Alice. I'm going to miss you if I take this offer to France. Can't I take you with me?" Seth said, jokingly. "If you want to take my husband and three kids along with me, sure, I'm up for it." "Forget I asked!" "Well, you've got a conference with the Star account at 10, a lunch meeting with Laura and Mike at 1, and you're done for the day." "Thanks Alice, take lunch and the rest of the day off." "I already was planning on that!" Alice replied, winking. Seth went into his office, and he found a large boquet of roses on his table in a beautiful vase. Seth picked up the card, "Honey, I'm really sorry about last night, please talk to me, I really miss you. Call me at work. Love, Luke" Seth could feel himself crying again, he pushed the intercom button. "Alice, can you take these roses off my table and put them elsewhere?" "Coming Seth." Alice showed up in less than a second, she picked up the roses gave Seth a hug, and left. Seth sat down and the phone rang. "Hello, Seth Pearson's desk." "Hey honey," Luke said, a little nasally. "Luke, I'm really busy, I have a meeting in 10 minutes, what do you want?" "Did you get my roses?" he asked. "Yeah, I'm having Alice relocate them as we speak. I really have nothing to talk to you about, so don't try calling me again." With that, Seth hung up the phone and got ready for his meeting.
Part V
Seth got home at 5pm, suprisingly, Luke was home already. It's time to tell him my decision about my job offer. "Luke," Seth said, calmly. "Can I talk to you?" Luke came running out of the bedroom, "I'm so glad you decided to talk because--" "Just shut up!" Seth cried, cutting Luke off. "I don't want to talk about that , but there is something else I have to talk to you about." "What is it?" Luke asked, worried. "Last night, I was offered a job promotion." "Congratulations!" Luke said, hugging Seth. "But..." Seth said, pushing Luke off of him. "It's in Paris." "Oh..." Luke said. "And I'm taking the job offering," Seth said in one breath. "You are? What about New York, what about us?" Luke asked, starting to cry. "What us?" Seth asked. "There is no us." "What about all those picnics we went on, or dates, or all those times we had hot, passionate sex?" Luke asked. "And what about everytime we tell each other how much we love each other..." "HOw much do you love me Luke?" Seth asked. "With all my heart Seth," Luke replied, sincerely. "If you love me so much, then why do you put me through all this?" "Seth, just please...give me a second chance to make things better...I promise to cut back on all the hours, we'll spend more time with each other...just please don't leave me..." Luke said, crying. "I'm sorry Luke," Seth said, crying. "I have to take this job, it'll be good for us." "To be apart?" "Of course not, that's why I'm saying good bye for good Luke," Seth said. "Please Seth, don't do this to me..."Luke plead. Seth gave Luke one last passionate kiss and said, "I leave Saturday evening."
