Josh and David had been sitting on the couch, chatting in David's living room for a couple of hours now. As David got up to get another couple of beers from the fridge, Josh noticed the slight alcohol flush running through him. He didn't feel drunk, just the warm contentment that came after a few relaxed beers. He took a look around the room he was in, noticing the mismatched furniture. The couch he sat on seemed new, with a modern design, and spacious seating. This contrasted with the worn, old reading chair in the corner, which had clearly been there for some time, a travel magazine draped over its arm. A tattered grey rug partly covered the otherwise bare and scratched floorboards. A new, large screen TV sat on an entertainment unit that was a little too small, with laminate peeling at the corners. Empty picture hooks on the wall completed the look.
"You really ought to get some pictures on the wall, mate." Josh said lightly as David put a cold beer in his hand and sat beside him.
"Yeah," he replied. "That was really Amy's area. She took them all with her when she left, and I haven't gotten around to replacing them yet." He stared at the rug in front of him.
David and Amy had been together since high school. She had left him around 9 months ago, after a fairly rocky relationship over some years, which had been a surprise to him if no one else. Now in his mid-30's, having never really been in the dating game, he was struggling to find a direction.
Josh had seen it all play out in front of him. He and David had been close since high school, and Josh still kept in touch with Amy as well. He'd had his own relationship problems, and had never really stayed with someone for longer than 12 months. With his good looks and cheerful confidence, he never really had trouble finding a date. It just all seemed to get dull within a few months. The sex would become routine too quickly, and he'd find himself turning to porn more and more.
"Aw, you'll pull yourself together." Josh tried to fill the awkward silence that hung between them as David contemplated his situation. "It's pretty natural to feel shit after such a long relationship breaks down. It'll take some time is all. Just need to get back on the horse."
David laughed derisively. "Yeah, well it's been a long time between rides!" he snorted.
"Handsome bloke like you? You must be knocking them back left, right and centre on Tinder! You having any luck?"
"To be honest, not really." David said. "I've never really cracked the online chat thing. Always come off sounding desperate. Probably because I am I guess." He chuckled.
"How long's it been between...rides?" Josh ventured.
"Well, today's Friday...so...about 2 years." David was blushing as he stared furiously at the beer bottle in his hands.
Josh couldn't believe it. "What the fuck? Two years?? Are you serious? What about Amy?"
"Well, we weren't really getting along in that sense for a while. I just wasn't that attracted to her in the end, and I think she felt the same. We never really had that good a sex life anyway. Neither of us had ever been with anyone else, so I guess we never really got to experiment that much. In the end it just petered out."
Josh laughed. "Well I guess that explains your huge right forearm, then!"
David grinned. "Yeah, it gets a decent work out! To be honest, in the end I preferred a good jerk-off session over a fuck anyway. It never quite felt as good, and Amy would pretty much just lie there as I humped away, so it wasn't exactly mind-blowing sex."
"Surely you wouldn't knock back a good blow job though right? I mean no-one's that good at spanking the monkey." Josh couldn't believe what he was hearing. The poor bastard hadn't had a single good fuck in his life.
"I was never really that lucky. Amy didn't really like doing it, so it was a bit of a 'birthdays and anniversary' kind of gig. Then, one time while she was going down on me when both of us were a bit drunk, it sort of snuck up on me and I blew my load in her mouth without warning. She pulled off my cock quick as a flash, me still spurting cum, her gagging and looking horrified. Then she just went pale, and puked all over my junk, right there in the bed." Both of them were laughing now, Josh imagining what it must have looked like.
"I couldn't help but start laughing," David continued, "which made her think I'd done it on purpose. She was totally pissed, and never went down on me again after that, no matter how much I told her it was an accident." He wiped a stray tear from his eye as he continued chuckling and then sighed, leaning back on the couch, a hand resting on his crotch.
"I'll never forget what it felt like though, right at the start of a blow job." Josh noticed him absent-mindedly squeezing his bulge as he spoke wistfully, looking up at the ceiling. "That moment when you're hard as a steel rod, so hard that it hurts, you know? And you're leaking like a tap, and her lips come down, and just slide softly over the head of your cock, pushing the foreskin back as she takes you into her mouth. If you're lucky, her tongue will be tickling that spot under the head of your cock where the skin joins on." He licked his lips, his voice sounding husky. "Fuck, man, I miss that!".
Josh shifted slightly as his own erection began straining the front of his pants. He became uncomfortably aware of the fluid leaking from his cock, and wondered if the wet patch would become visible on his track pants. His leg brushed against David's as he spoke, and instinctively he went to pull it away. At the last minute, though, he stopped himself. He couldn't help but notice the tension between them right then. He felt immense pity for David and his decades of sexual prime squandered on an unhappy partnership. If he was honest with himself, he also felt slightly turned on by David's inexperience. He was practically a virgin when you thought about it. He'd never been attracted to another guy before, really. He'd never actually even considered it a possibility. But right at this moment, he was as horny as he'd been in a long time.
All of these thoughts raced through his mind in a millisecond. A sudden thought entered his mind. Maybe this was something he should do for David. The poor bloke hadn't gotten laid in 2 years; hadn't had a blowjob in who knew how long. Maybe this was just a favour he could do for him. A gift, one mate to another. Surely it couldn't be that bad. He found the scent of his own cock a bit of a turn-on actually, although he'd never been able to taste it despite a couple of poorly thought-out attempts. To be honest, he was kind of keen to give it a try.
He took David in at a glance, leaning back on the couch, eyes closed, hand squeezing his now obvious erection, describing how much he missed oral sex. Josh's hand crossed the distance between them. It felt like a mile. Time seemed to slow, and then pause in the exact moment before he made contact with David's thigh. It was this simple gesture, this simple touch that would cross a boundary that they had never even flirted with before. It seemed impossible to cross that last couple of millimetres. His mind screamed "WRONG" at him, as years of macho conditioning took a hold of him and paralysed his movements. He pushed down the urge to turn back, and finally, rested his hand gently on David's upper thigh.
David's eyes snapped open, suddenly drawn back to reality from his erotic daydream. His hand shot forward and grabbed a hold of Josh's wrist.
"What are you..." the sentence caught in his throat as he saw Josh looking directly at him. They stopped like that for a second or two, seeming like an age. Neither man spoke. Josh felt the grip on his wrist tighten briefly before his hand was moved decisively onto David's crotch. He squeezed gently, feeling the outline of his erection pushing through the material of his pants. He traced his cock up towards where the head was, noting the size. He was reasonably well endowed, 7 inches at least, with a substantial girth. Josh tried not to think too much about what was happening as he started stroking his mate's cock through his pants, back and forth. David exhaled a slow, deep exhalation, and leaned back into the couch, closing his eyes again. He parted his legs slightly, making it clear that Josh had free rein over him.
Josh leaned further towards him, and with both hands, grasped the waist band of his pants. Josh obligingly lifted his buttocks off the couch, and Josh slid down his pants. His hard cock caught in the band of his underwear, eventually releasing with a slap against his T shirt as Josh slid his pants right down to his knees. He looked with interest at this angle of his mate he'd never seen before. David's cock was impressive, and hard as a rock. The veins stood out ludicrously on his shaft, and the engorged, purple head poked slightly out from within his smooth foreskin. Clear fluid leaked from the eye of his cock, and was forming a dark wet patch on his shirt. His trimmed pubic hair gave a clear view of 2 large, weighty balls, hanging low in his loose sac.
He grabbed a firm hold of the shaft. The skin was velvety smooth, with just a touch of dampness. He could feel the pulse of David's heart beat through the skin. He slid his hand up the shaft, the foreskin working as a lubricant, and slid the skin back and forth over the head of his cock. A slight twitch and an involuntary lift of his balls sent a corresponding glob of sparkling, clear liquid from the end of his cock, running down and becoming engulfed in the moving foreskin. The head of his cock glistened, lubricated with the pre cum that continued to leak from him. The musky odour was driving Josh wild.
