He had just gotten out of the shower when the doorbell rang. "Shit!" he said, quickly toweling dry and wrapping the wet towel around his waist. He wasn't expecting his brother to arrive until noon, it was only 10 am. The stupid son of a bitch could have at least called to say he would be early!
He walked to the door, intending to give his brother an earful. But when he peeked through the side light, he saw it wasn't Gregory. It was Jason, one of Greg's friends from work. He opened the door and said "Hey, what's up? I thought you were Gregory, he's supposed to come by and drop off some paperwork."
Jason stood there and smiled. "Sorry dude. Greg asked me to bring it by. He's got an emergency to take care of, so I figured I'd do him a favor." He looked at Andy standing there wearing only a wet towel. "Bad time?"
Andy shook his head. "No, it's ok. I was in the shower." The air outside was cold, and he shivered slightly. "You better come in before I get pneumonia or something." He stood aside to let Jason in.
Jason walked into the hall, and Andy quickly shut the door. "Jeezus, it's cold out there!" Jason laughed. "Shit yeah, it's supposed to be in the teens all week." He followed Andy into the kitchen and dropped the manila envelope on the table. "Greg says all you have to do is sign in a few places, and that's it. He'll take care of the rest."
"Great," Andy said. "I'll be glad to get this thing over with." Selling the condo had been an exercise in frustration. With the market down and buyers getting more and more picky and demanding, he had begun to despair of ever unloading the thing, and the taxes had been taking quite a chunk out of his budget. When Greg had finally found a buyer, Andy had been thrilled. After fixing this and that the deal had finally been done, and now all that was left was for Andy to sign off on a few things so Greg could close the sale.
He had been grateful for his brother's help. Although they had not always gotten along, they were family, and Greg had come through for him. After Andy had decided to break things off with Ross, the condo was too big for him alone, and he had to sell so he could move into something a bit less expensive. When he had approached Greg about helping him out, he had expected him to say no, but to his surprise, Greg had readily agreed.
Andy harbored no illusions about his brother's willingness to assist him. Greg had been thrilled to hear that Andy and Ross were breaking up. Andy's homosexuality had always bothered Greg, the topic had caused more than one argument in the past. And Greg had hated Ross, hated the idea that his brother was a queer and allowed this guy to touch him, do things to him. Despite everything, he knew Greg still hoped that Andy would give up on this lifestyle and find a nice girl to settle down with. Explaining that it wasn't all that easy did no good, Greg felt deep in his heart that Andy's sexual orientation was just a choice, a bad choice. But now, all that was left was for him to sign on the dotted lines, and it would be done, he could move on.
"You want something to drink?" Andy stood in front of the refrigerator, looking in. "I've got beer, soda, iced tea," He grabbed a beer for himself. "I'm celebrating, care to join me?" Jason nodded, and caught the Coors that Andy tossed to him. "I'm so glad to be unloading this place, I was starting to worry I'd be stuck here by myself."
"That other guy move out?" Jason asked. He tried to sound casual, and didn't want to appear to be prying, but he had been curious since Greg had told him about the breakup. Greg had been elated about it, and Jason knew that Greg hated the fact that Andy was gay. Jason however, had been intrigued, although he had been careful not to let Greg know that.
Actually, that was why Jason had volunteered to run the paperwork over to Andy's place. He had met Andy a few times before, and had found himself attracted to him. Andy was a great looking guy, blonde with green eyes, and a body to die for. Even though Jason did not consider himself gay, he often wondered what it would be like to be with another man.
"Yeah," Andy said "He's gone. Things just didn't work out, you know?" He started looking through a stack of papers on the counter, but couldn't find what he was looking for. "Oh wait, I know where it is. Hey, come with me, I'll give you a quick tour of the place."
Jason followed him into the bedroom, and Andy found the folder with the deed and tax information. "Do me a favor? Give these to Greg, he'll need them to set up the closing." He waved his hand around. "Well, this is the master bedroom, private bath over there, walk in closet there."
"Nice," Jason said. "It's a shame you can't keep it."
"Yeah, well, it's pretty expensive, and I can't carry the place on my salary. I'm looking at a smaller place across town." He walked over to the closet and opened it, looked through the built in drawers. He could feel Jason watching him, and decided to give him a show. He let the towel drop to the floor, and took his time finding something to wear. He had a great body, always took care of himself, and loved showing it off. So, if Jason wanted an eyeful, let him have it.
"You have some nice ink." Jason remarked. He was looking at Andy's tattoos. He had several, large and well-done, including the dragon that covered the left side of his back and extended down over his buttock. "How long did it take to get that done?"
Andy laughed. "It was a process, and hurt like hell, too." He made no move to dress, letting Jason look him over. He turned a bit to the side so Jason could see the whole thing. "Especially here on the side, over the ribs. Tattooing over bone puts you in a world of hurt."
"And once you start you can't stop, huh?" Jason stepped closer to examine the design. "Don't want to leave it half-done." He reached out and traced the dragon with his finger.
Andy chuckled. "No, definitely don't want to do that." he said. He allowed Jason to follow the design with his finger, down past his lower belly, where he stopped. He was enjoying the feel of Jason's fingers on him, and he felt his cock begin to stir. Jason took notice of this, and said "Ooops, sorry. Didn't mean to wake him up."
"It's ok, he's a light sleeper anyway." Andy laughed. Jason felt himself blushing, and Andy laughed again. "No need to be embarrassed, dude. He's just been so lonely lately he tends to get a little eager."
"Yeah, I know the feeling." Jason pulled his hand back and tried to force his blush back, without much success. "It's been awhile since I got any action either."
"Well, I've always said that you straight guys put unnecessary limits on yourselves. You should keep all your options open, know what I mean? Take me, for example, I'm gay, but I have been with a few women too. I wouldn't marry one, but I'll fuck one if there's nothing else around. Being open-minded doubles my chances of getting laid." He looked Jason in the eye and asked "You ever been with a guy?"
