Since I always had to get Tyler's permission for every little thing I did, I asked him, one day in April, if I could call one of the factories in Bellewood to ask about summer work. His reply shocked me. He said, "No, you're not gonna be in Bellewood this summer, Davey, you're comin' home to Keenesburg with me."
"What? No. No, I... I can't do that, no... um..."
"Of course you can, Davey."
"No, no... I need to work for the summer."
"No, you don't."
"Yes. I do. I need to save money."
"For what?"
"For... well... I don't know, I just do."
"Nah. You're comin' home with me this summer. You don't need to have a summer job."
"You mean... the *whole* summer? In Keenesburg?"
"Yeah. That's where *I'll* be the whole summer. So that's where you'll be."
"But... but... I, uh... I don't think my parents will *let* me spend the whole summer away. I mean..."
"They don't have a say. You're an adult, Davey, you don't have to do what they want."
"Well... OK... um... as an adult... who can do what I want... um... I wanna work for the summer in Bellewood."
"Ha! Well, I didn't say you could do what YOU want. I said you don't have to do what THEY want."
"But... I have to do what YOU want."
"Well, I mean... yeah, unless you wanna go the whole summer without cumming. You won't have the key to your dick tube, obviously."
"Well, I'm sure I could come to Keenesburg some weekend. Maybe even two or three times this summer. I'm sure my parents would be OK with me taking a trip to visit my roommate. By the way, Ms. Smeltzer IS gonna give you the key, for the summer... right?"
"Uh, ya know what, we haven't talked about that. Lemme call her and see."
He dialed Kelly Smeltzer's cell phone. "Hey, Kelly. Good. Hey, Davey's kinda whining about wanting-... haha, yeah. Well... you know how he is. He was talking about going home to Bellewood to work this summer, and I told him, no, you're comin' home with me for the summer. He was wondering if I'm gonna have the key to his tube. OK. Dude, she wants to talk to you."
He handed me the phone. With great trepidation, I took it, and said, "Hello?"
"Hello, little pussy," she said, flatly, and with no small measure of hostility. "So you thought you were gonna go home and have a summer job, huh?"
"Well-"
"Listen carefully. You will do what Tyler says. Period. And you will not argue, and you will not complain. And you will not try to change his mind. You will go home with him this summer. Because he says so. And you will always do what Tyler says, and what Shelly says, and what I say, and what Dale says... and what anybody else says who any of us put in authority over you."
Sternly, and emphatically, she continued, "You... are... a slave. A little pussyboy plaything for the amusement and pleasure of people who are better than you. Your job is to say 'yes, sir' and 'yes, ma'am', and do everything you're told without any talking back, or arguing, or complaining. THAT is your job. You know what's NOT your job?"
I thought the question was rhetorical, so I responded with silence, terrified to speak out of turn.
"I asked you a question, slave."
"I'm sorry. Uh... no... um, what's... not my job?"
"To ask questions like, Where's the key to my chastity device? Who has it? When will I get to cum? If Tyler says you'll spend the summer with him, you just go. You go to Keenesburg, and do as you're told when you're there. Period. That's all you do. You don't ask questions.
"Now... not that I have to tell you this, but... what the hell, I feel like it... *I* will have the key to your chastity device, all summer long. And I, of course, have work to do here, and have to be here in Trentstown... you know, where I live. But, if you're lucky we might see each other this summer, maybe even more than once. I *will* be taking vacation time this summer, there's always the possibility that Tyler and Shelly will want to come here some time, and if they do, they can stay with me. Obviously they're likely to bring you along. And then there's always Dale, who might be able to transport you here, or me there. But THAT... is OUR business. Not yours.
"So listen carefully, you little pussified worm. You're nothing more than a SLAVE. You don't get to make plans. You don't get to make decisions. You don't get to ask questions. You just do as you're told. And since you're such an ungrateful little slave, who doesn't even appreciate the fact that Tyler and I HAVE let you cum on occasion, I'm making a new rule: You never ask questions about your chastity key... who has it, when will they use it, when will you get to cum, etc.
"Now here's something else: Your punishment for trying to make your own plans, and for asking about your chastity key, is you don't get to cum for the rest of April. Which means when the semester is over in a month, you go to Keenesburg with Tyler, and you'll have no idea if you'll ever get to cum this summer, or not. And if you DARE to complain, and if you DON'T go home with Tyler this summer, then not only will you go the whole summer without cumming, but you won't see that key for all of fall semester, either. Now say 'Yes, Ms. Smeltzer' and put Tyler back on the phone, you little shithead."
"Yes, Ms. Smeltzer," I said, and then dropped my head and wept as I extended my arm, to hand Tyler back his phone.
Later, I did get Tyler's permission to call my parents to notify them that I'd be spending the whole summer with my roommate in Keenesburg. He made me put the call on speaker, so he could listen. They were not happy, and they asked if I'd be spending any time at all, at home in Bellewood. I suddenly realized I did not know the answer to that; it would be completely up to Tyler. So I said I did not know.
"What do you mean, you don't know?" asked my mom. "We thought you were gonna try and work down at Feedler this summer anyway. Didn't you call Mr. Mueller to ask him about a job?"
"Well... I don't really need to work."
"I thought you wanted to save up for your own car," my dad said.
"Well... I don't really need a car here. I guess while I'm still in college, I don't really need one."
"I don't really get why you'd wanna spend the *whole* summer there," he said. "I mean I know you said you and Tyler get along fine, but I didn't realize you'd become such good buddies that you'd wanna hang out all summer long. Didn't you say you have almost nothing in common? You know, he lifts weights, plays basketball, watches sports... none of the stuff you're into. I just don't see it. What are you gonna *do* all summer?"
I didn't give them very satisfying answers to those kinds of questions. What could I tell them? That what I was gonna *do* all summer was lick balls, dick, ass, and feet, and be continually raped and abused? Oh, and maybe get beaten, too? After the phone call, Tyler said, "Dude, I can't believe after all this time, you've given your parents the impression that we're not best buds. You still act like I'm not your friend sometimes, Davey. Kinda hurts my feelings. I think maybe you've got a belt-spanking coming to you. That's probably the first thing we'll have to do when we get to Keenesburg. Besides, I know Shelly will enjoy that. Christ, man, she went wild when Dale was spanking you. She fucked my brains out."
My parents insisted on coming to Trentstown to visit me for a weekend before the semester ended. They got a hotel room, and took me and Tyler out for meals. Tyler said I should do my best to convince them, by the way I acted around him, that he and I were the best friends ever. Actually Tyler did most of the convincing, talking about how we did everything together: ate meals on campus together, worked on our studies together, watched sports together, talked late into the night, often with his girlfriend on the phone with us... how Shelly really liked me, too, and how Shelly and I got along well. I know my parents disapproved of the fact that Shelly lived at Tyler's house even though they were not married. They did not say so to Tyler, but I knew that was one of the things that concerned them about me spending the summer there.
When the semester ended, Shelly and Tyler's mom made the 8-hour drive to Trentstown while I packed up my and Tyler's stuff. There would be four of us in the car for the ride back, and not much room, but TU would not allow us to leave anything in the dorm; the dorm rooms had to be completely vacated. Since there wouldn't be enough room in the car to take everything, my stuff was to be stored at Ms. Smeltzer's house for the summer. ALL my stuff. I wasn't even taking clothes. When I needed clothes, I'd be able to wear Tyler's, but most of the time, he said, I wouldn't even need clothes. I thought, Holy Christ... does that mean I'll be naked almost all the time? If so, then that means I'll be shut up in a bedroom or something... probably tied up or cuffed. Surely I wouldn't be wandering around the house naked, with Tyler's mother there.
But I didn't ask about what to expect, because even though almost a month had passed since my last conversation, on the phone, with Ms. Smeltzer, I remembered well what she told me: I was not to ask questions, but just do as I was told.
