An Awakening
I was just a young boy when I met him. I was about 24 I guess and was working putting up TV aerials and satellite dishes. He was just moving into his new place. Here's what happened. It was a Friday and the office had stuck a whole load of jobs in the diary. I was working with a mate, and yet we were still falling behind. By the time we got to St. John's Road to fit a new aerial and put up the dish it was getting late and we still had three other jobs to do. I told my mate to wait in the van and planned to pop in briefly and delay the job until the next day to give us a fighting chance of getting through the day.
I rang the bell - I can't remember who answered but it wasn't David - I explained who I was and they invited me into the living room to talk to him. I was wearing Jeans and a t-shirt, with trainers, nothing special, my hair was quite long in those days and I was a fresh-faced lad, always looking younger than my years so I probably looked more 19-20 when he met me. I went into the living room and he looked at me immediately. I felt his power then, felt his attraction to me - he looked mesmerised by me and I was suddenly nervous and a little overcome by him. He greeted me kindly, looking me right in the eyes and smiling at me. I felt wanted there was no denying that! I explained how late we were running and asked if he'd mind me completing the job the following morning. 'I'm David by the way' he said, 'Hi, I'm Toby' I answered, eager to be on my way but a little entranced by this big man who seemed to want me in ways I couldn't begin to imagine. I explained the situation, and despite the stress of moving and the inconvenience of having no TV that night he was very gracious in accepting my proposal to return the following morning.
Well I was a bit of a hell raiser back in those days and I remember having a bit of a night of it, alcohol, speed, sex with my sometime companion Karen, an unfeasibly large breasted lady who was great company. Consequently, and as is the way with that particular drug I was still 'buzzing' in the morning when I rang the bell at David's - yesterday he'd had removal men and who knows who in the house, and I'd had my buddy - but today he was alone, as was I. When he answered the door he met me with a big beaming smile and invited me in. He appeared a little flustered as he showed me where he wanted the points for the TV, and we talked about where to put the dish. I was aware I was having some effect on him and the thought aroused me, though I knew I was too scared to do anything about it - I'd never been with a man like that, and though I was curious the reality was scary.
I went back outside and got on with my work, I put the aerial on the chimney and then the dish at the rear of the house. I was running the cable down the wall when I looked into the window and saw some kind of magazine on a desk/table - I wasn't sure what it was but it had a muscular man on the front, which seemed to confirm my suspicions about David and his preferences. I was also aware though that I was still spaced out from last night and possibly prone to jump to the wrong conclusions.
I finished the outside work and went inside to finish up/tune the TV etc. I got down on my knees in front of the telly in the living room and I was aware he was behind me standing at the door. I got onto all fours and wiggled my pert bottom for him under the guise of looking at the back of the VCR. I had my back to him so couldn't see a reaction and quickly lost my nerve. 'All done' I said passing him the remote. 'Would you like a beer before you go?' he offered. Accepting the offer we went through to the kitchen where I stood by the back door and we chatted as I enjoyed a cold lager.
There I was chatting to this tall, powerful seeming man, feeling pretty horny, tool belt on and drinking a beer as I wondered whether I could make any kind of move, or how I would give him the green light to do so. I shifted my body language a little, thought I'd play and see if anything happened. I parted my legs a little, met his eyes and held his gaze. He kept talking and we shared a smile. I took a tiny step towards him and he beamed, getting the idea that I may be open to his advances. Still though he seemed a little unsure. It was a fairly warm morning but not exactly hot. Despite this I decided there was only one thing for it, I'd make a fairly obvious play and see what happened. As we were talking I fixed his gaze and removed my t-shirt - I was slim and a little ripped in those days. I held his gaze and smiled as I pretended to mop my brow.
'You've got a lovely body Toby' he told me nervously - 'Thank you David I responded shyly' I'd pushed this as far as I dared and was quite terrified of what might happen next. 'Do you have any more jobs today?' David asked - 'No, just this one, the rest of the day is my own' I replied. He took a step towards me and I nearly turned and ran such was the surge of adrenaline though my body. Somehow I held myself in place. I slightly parted my lips and felt my mind drift as I looked up at him. 'Would you like another beer?' he asked me. Although I was driving I was bricking it so I gladly accepted his offer. While he was getting it from the fridge I took two steps towards him and when he turned back around I was much closer to him. He smiled at this and I sighed in relief that I hadn't misread his signals.
