This takes place right after Daniel and JD / Physical Therapy
Daniel and JD / Awakening By D.L.
Two weeks before school started back up, Daniel got his casts removed. The doctor recommended physical therapy and stretching exorcises, but believed that with some work that Daniel might be able to compete with the swim team for his senior year.
Nearly every day followed the same routine, with school getting out at 2:30pm, therapy until 5:00pm, and swimming to build up his strength until nearly 9:00pm. After a little more than a month, JD began to time Daniel's laps again, amazed at how fast he had improved.
He watched Daniel now from the tiled deck at the side of the pool, wearing his suit and a tank top, light brown hair now cut short for the swimming season. His green eyes scanned Daniel's performance for flaws, always watching for ways to improve. As Daniel touched the marker after completing his final lap, JD clicked the stopwatch and grinned.
"You did it, Asshole! You beat my time for last year." JD stood up and pulled Daniel out of the water. "I'm glad I'm on the diving team, or I wouldn't have a chance." He threw a towel around his friend as they walked towards the shower room.
"I don't even want to talk water for a couple of days, dude. You're harder than that physical terrorist I just got rid of." Daniel dried his face and looked over at the watch. "Shit, yeah! I can take that!"
"I told you." JD hung the watch over his neck and went to his locker. "I didn't get wet, so I'll meet you at the blazer." Daniel nodded and walked away dripping. JD looked down at Daniel's legs and laughed quietly. One was tanned and the other was still pale white. He shook his head and began to change into his clothes.
He waited in the truck, listening to Def Leppard. Before long Daniel came out of the building, limping very slightly still, and climbed into the truck. "Mom and Dad are taking Marc back to the university tonight, and aren't coming home until Sunday," The tall blond threw his duffel into the back seat. "You wanna stay over? There's all kinds of stuff on HBO, or we can grab some movies."
"I'll call home from your place. I know my parents won't care." He pulled the truck out and moved into traffic. "They think your the saint that talked me into cutting my hair, remember?" He smiled a wolfish grin.
Daniel laughed. "Oh, yeah. I don't do anything wrong, do I?"
"They think that you single handedly keep me on the straight and narrow, man. I'd be lost in hell if you were gone."
"Jesus you're a ham." Daniel punched JD's arm. "Drop me off, then go get whatever you need. The family that I'm forced to live with has apparently already left." They pulled up in front of Daniel's house to find the garage door closed and the car gone. Daniel stepped out of the blazer and turned to grab his bag.
"I'll be right back, dude. Call and bag some pizza."
"I thought I was the one that got the workout, dickhead. How come I have to cook?" Daniel closed the door and stepped back to the curb.
"I'll buy, you poor little thing." JD pouted his lips and mocked. "I just don't have a cell phone with me."
"Hurry up and get back, asshole, or I won't let you have any." He hit the side of the truck lightly and turned to the house, waving as JD honked the horn. The early September days were still warm, but the evenings had cooled considerably. Daniel let the cat in, then turned off the swamp cooler. A note on the counter from his mother told him to make sure the cat was in, causing him to smirk, and let him know there was spending money on his dresser. He called for pizza, then went to his room to change.
JD found him sprawled in the recliner in the family room. He'd met the delivery guy on the way in, and carried a box to the coffee table. They watched a movie and dispatched the pizza.
"Stacy Randall was looking for you again today." JD said around a mouth full. "She said she wanted to go out again."
Daniel waved his hand, dismissing the idea. Two weeks ago he'd taken Stacey out, and was miserable the whole time. He was absolutely certain that she would have done anything with him, and strangely, it hadn't interested him. It now worried him, although he hadn't discussed it with JD yet, because he thought that might be the problem.
"She's prime real-estate, dude. Aren't you gonna flaunt her around school a little?"
Daniel looked at his friend then back to the TV, mumbling to himself. "What?" JD asked, catching onto the sudden tension in the air. Daniel sighed, then turned the TV off. He got up and turned the radio on to the old 80's rock station, then settled back in the chair.
"It didn't go well." He said at last, setting the pizza box on the floor so he could put his feet up. "We went out, I got pawed over, and she had a great time. I don't want to do it again."
JD cocked his head to the side, thinking a moment before speaking. "What happened, Danny?" He asked, seriously. He watched as Daniel rubbed his face with his hands, and for a second, he thought the other might start to cry. "Holy shit, Dan, what happened?"
"I wasn't interested." Daniel stated in a shaky voice. "We were holding hands at the movie, she kissed me, and..." He covered his face with his hand and sat quietly, not knowing what to say.
JD moved to the side of the chair and knelt down, pulling the hand away. "What happened?" he asked more quietly. He was surprised when the hand took his. He met Daniel's conflicted gaze, and saw pain there, deep pain. "Aw, Danny," He said, placing his free hand on the other's cheek. The tears started, followed by silent sobs. He embraced Daniel, his best friend of many years, and let him cry on his chest.
"I wanted it to happen so bad!" Daniel choked out, trying to stop the torrent of emotions. "I wanted to be attracted to her, to think about her naked, and I couldn't." He accepted a napkin from JD and scrubbed fiercely at his eyes. "You asshole! All I could see was you lying beside me on the blanket at Dester's Landing." He shoved JD back and fell into the chair. "I hated you for that, man. I really did. I don't want to be gay."
"God, Daniel. I am so sorry." JD whispered his face ashen.
"Shut up, dickhead. If I still felt that way, would we have been friends for the last month and a half?" Daniel glared at him through bloodshot eyes. "I don't know what to do." He sniffed loudly.
"Maybe I should go." Went to stand up, and was caught by the wrist. He looked back into Daniel's eyes and swallowed hard.
"I want you to stay. Please." Daniel stood up and moved towards him. "I want to try something, so I can figure out my head, okay?" JD nodded, not daring to speak, and felt Daniel's hands on both sides of his face. Daniel kissed him, tentatively at first, them much more deeply. He put his arms around the tall blond, and they embraced.
"That's what I thought." Daniel said when they parted, but not dropping their arms.
"What, Dan?"
"All that shit about 'it's just sex' was just shit, wasn't it?"
JD hesitated, then nodded, remaining silent. "I'd kill you in a second, but I don't think I'd make it by myself right now, ya know?" Daniel asked, smiling weakly. "Can we maybe just keep this to ourselves? I think I'd have people lining up to kill me."
They laughed nervously, and Daniel laid his head on JD's shoulder. "This is messed up, JD. I am not supposed to fall in love with you." He lifted his head and looked into the other's face. "I am not gay."
"That's what I told you.." JD offered. Daniel sighed, then after a moment kissed him again. Soon, he could feel Daniel's tongue touching his, and a shiver went through him as he felt a hand go up his back under his shirt. He tugged Daniel's shirt off, taking a second to admire the smooth curves of his muscles, then snapped open his fly.
Daniel stopped him, then undressed JD entirely before pushing him to the couch. He slowly slid his pants and briefs off, then moved nearer. He closed his eyes and sighed as he felt JD caress his genitals, instantly springing erect. JD cupped his balls, and took him in his mouth, making his legs weak.
He could feel the fire burning in his stomach, and he pulled away, wanting this to last longer than just a few minutes. He laid down on the floor and pulled JD to him, kissing and running his hands all over. Still wanting to be bold, he began to masturbate the other, amazed at the thrill he got from doing it.
"Oh Jesus, Danny. If you had any idea how long I wanted you to do that." JD moaned. then kissed him again. JD's own stomach muscles tensed, and he felt himself getting close. He stopped Daniel's hand and pushed him back. He pulled his overnight bag over and removed a bottle of oil, and began to rub it on the other's rock hard member.
"Try this." He said standing up. He pulled Daniel up, then turned to the recliner and leaned over to touch the armrest, spreading his legs. Daniel moved behind him and entered his ass, gently moving forward until he was in. He wrapped his arms around JD's chest, then slowly began to pump.
Daniel Pulled JD up almost standing, then reached around and wrapped his hand around JD's cock and began to move slowly in synch with himself. They said nothing, just gently rocking, as the power built up in both of them. Daniel couldn't help himself as he quickened the pace. With some dexterity, JD stayed in the rhythm. He felt his stomach tighten, realizing that he couldn't stop it this time.
Daniel huffed in his ear in short breaths and tensed, then rammed all they way up shuddering and pumping hard. He felt wave after wave of orgasm from Daniel, and the roughness of the other cumming sent him into oblivion. JD shot enormous spurts all over their clothes, needing to be supported by Daniel. He felt like he was to weak to stand, and one of Daniel's cord like arms held him standing while the other pumped him dry.
Daniel finally slowed his own motions and pulled out, falling with JD in a heap on the floor. Sweaty and exhausted, they cradled each other and breathed deeply, slowing hearts down. Daniel laid back finally, feeling that fantastic floating sensation again, absentmindedly running his finger tips over JD's chest. JD moved to lay flat, placing his head on Daniel's hip.
"That was intense." Daniel almost whispered. "I think we're gonna need another pizza. I'm starved."
Outside, they could hear the faint rumble of thunder. JD pulled himself up and held out his hand. "Come on," He said, "Let's go see the lightening." He pulled Daniel up and walked towards the hallway.
"JD," Daniel folded his arms and tilted his head to the side. "This may not have occurred to you, but we're naked."
"So?"
"So, most people, especially two guys, usually don't go outside waving their dicks in the wind."
JD leaned on the doorframe, flashing his wolf grin. "First off, its dark. Second, you're backyard is totally surrounded by an eight foot hedge, and third, the patio is enclosed on three sides by the house." He walked back to the center of the room and put his arm around Daniel, leading him to the hall. "You need to loosen up, man. Live a little. Don't you think it might be just the slightest bit cool to cruise the house and the backyard in your birthday suit?"
A goofy grin came over Daniel's face. "Yeah, I guess so." They moved into the kitchen for sodas and chips before going out onto the patio. "Do you do this at home?" He asked, settling in to one of the lounge chairs. The cool moist air felt fantastic, and he had to admit that it was exhilarating.
"Sometimes, when everyone is gone." JD answered, tearing open the chips. "It's like I tried to tell you, Daniel, I don't find many other guys attractive, just you." He sipped from the coke and then glanced over at Daniel. "I don't know why, and I never went out of the way to find out how you felt, because that would have torpedoed us as friends, and I'd never want that to happen."
Daniel digested that and worked on his Coke for a few seconds. "What does it feel like to.. you know,....." At a loss for words, he looked away, embarrassed.
"How does what feel?"
"When I'm inside you, what does it feel like?"
JD sat his Coke down and turned to face Daniel. "Do you remember the feeling that went through you when I put my finger up there?" Daniel nodded, and he continued. "The first time is painful, but the feeling comes from the prostate gland that all guys have. I don't know the details, but it felt as good for me as it did for you. Didn't you notice how fast I came?"
Daniel blushed and nodded. "How did you learn all this stuff anyway? I never even thought about it until you...you know." He looked into JD's eyes, curious, yet embarrassed by the conversation. He wanted to know more, but he couldn't get past the feeling that he was being decadent, and it was distracting.
"Remember that summer I went to camp, and you went with the fam to California?" JD leaned back in the chair and looked up at the clouds, gazing into the distance, and the past. "There were a lot of questions in my mind, and lets just say I found some answers."
They were silent for a while, each with their own thoughts, when Daniel felt the rain start. He was almost excited by the feel of the drops hitting his naked skin, and he grinned at JD. Without a word they stood up, and Daniel put his arm around JD. They walked out on to the grass as the downpour started, and ran through the yard, laughing.
When the lightening hit over head, nearly deafening them, they ran into the house, still laughing, to search for towels. The power went out, and Daniel found some of his mother's candles for the family room. The found some blankets to spread on the floor, and curled up together, enjoying the mood and the storm. They talked swimming and cars, their two favorite subjects, then lapsed into companionable silence.
JD Laid behind Daniel and propped himself up on one arm. In the golden glow of the candles, Daniel's magnificent physique was accentuated by the shadows. He ran his fingers around each muscle, and gently across each nipple, enjoying the quiver of Daniel's flawless skin, and all of the little blond hairs rising in goose pimples.
Daniel groaned and rolled onto his stomach, placing his outstretched hands above his head. He moved under the touch of JD's fingers like a cat, thoroughly immersed in the sensations. He felt JD's hands on his legs and slowly spread them, inviting the other to play.
JD smiled and understood. He got his bottle of lube and began to apply it all over Daniel's ass, massaging it in and ever so carefully working it into the sphincter. Daniel jumped a couple of times, but remained still, almost shaking with anticipation. JD moved one finger into Daniel, earning a groan, then started slow back and fourth motions, waiting for the muscles to relax. Each time they did, he inserted another finger until he had three in.
Daniel could feel the sensations in he stomach, and he laid there calmly, enjoying something that he had thought was the most disgusting thing on earth. He would never have tried this, and it amazed him that he'd almost missed it. He felt JD pull out his fingers and tensed a little, afraid. But just as quickly, he knew JD would never hurt him, and that all he had to do was ask him to stop, and he would.
He heard JD move, and felt the slightest touch of his penis at his ass. "Just relax, Danny. I swear I won't hurt you." With that he moved forward. Daniel felt it enter his ass, and he tried to fight the urge to resist. "Easy, Danny, just relax, ok?" Daniel forced himself to relax, and felt JD slide in a little further. There was some pain, but it also felt warm, and he could feel that feeling in his stomach intensify.
"It's almost there." JD breathed, beginning to make short gentle thrusts. He could hear Daniel's quiet moans, and knew that the other was enjoying the new sensations. He kept the motions small to keep the pain down, and finally felt Daniel relax all the way. He slid all the way in.
"Oh, Jesus!" Daniel hissed, feeling an incredible warmth and fullness in his stomach. There had been some slight pain, but it was more than made up for by the sensations he was experiencing. Everytime JD moved into him, he felt an electric charge shoot through his genitals, and it was all he could do to hold still.
JD gently rolled him onto his side and took a hold of his member, beginning a pumping rhythm that matched JD's plunges into his ass. He arched and moaned, totally oblivious to the outside world, and finally nearly bellowed when he came. The orgasm started way up inside his abdomen, and shot like a freight train onto the blanket. Crash after crash of ecstasy went through him, and he could vaguely feel JD pumping into him.
JD wrapped his arms around Daniel to hold on. The way the other moved caused him to come much quicker than he expected. He shot several loads into Daniel, each one draining him like he'd never known. Finally they started to come down from their explosions, their motions subsiding.
Daniel gasped for breath and rolled onto his back after JD pulled out. He felt dizzy for a moment and closed his eyes. JD collapsed on his chest, and he absentmindedly ran his fingers through JD's hair. He had never dreamed it could be like this, and he savored every moment of the after glow. This was life changing, he could sense that, but he could also tell that he and JD were a perfect match for what ever was out there for them. This was it, and he was suddenly very content with that. They were together, and that was all they needed.
Up to this point, the story has been loosely based on what happened in the summer of 1988. I've always wanted to know what might have happened, and will continue the story just to find out.
