BEEP. BEEP. BEEP.
I bury my head in my pillow in a futile effort to block out my alarm clock. I don't want to leave the warmth and safety of my bed if only for a few minutes more. My hand swings around in the cold December air searching for that precious snooze button only to collide with my clock, sending it skidding onto my floor. I groan, pulling myself from my sheets and following the sound as I crawl to my clock and snuff out the plastic siren. I sigh as I pull myself up to my feet.
"A boy can dream." I think to myself.
Feeling my way down the hall to my bathroom I find my toothbrush, brushing quickly so I can hop into the warm blast of my shower. After washing off I tie a towel around my waist and brace myself for another blast of cold to my bare chest. Instead, I was greeted by a blanket of warmth. Gripping the wall I work my way towards the thermostat to check the temp when a deep chuckle startles me and causes my towel to slip to the floor.
"You're gonna catch your death if you keep leaving the heater off like that"
I scramble to cover myself as embarrassment floods my stomach. The voice belonged to my nurse, Tom.
"You asshole!" I scold as I pick the towel up and retie it.
"Oh come off it princess, its nothing I haven't seen before. Now turn around and get some clothes on, ill help pick something out."
I feel his big hands grip my shoulders and spin me around guiding me to my room. As much as he got on my nerves, I couldn't help but like Tom. I've been blind since birth and my mom wouldn't let me move out on my own unless I agreed to a part time nurse and I got lucky enough to find one who was more of a friend than a babysitter. Tom never looked down on me or treated me different because of my disability. With him, I was just one of the guys...one of the guys who happened to have a crush on him. Tom was everything I wanted to be. He was big, he was strong and most importantly he was out of the closet. I didn't have the balls to be honest about who I was and I envied his ability to be so open about himself. I think that's part of what made me like him even more.
Whatever the root of my feelings were I was not prepared to be naked in front of my crush. I feel a pair of underwear placed in my hands that I hastily slip on, tucking my growing cock in the waistband to keep my shame from going on full display in my boxers. He hands me jeans and a thermal shirt. Once I'm dressed I relax a bit. It might be wishful thinking, but I can almost feel his eyes on me though I'd have no idea what's running through his mind.
"You know you have nothing to be ashamed of right?"
I Pause, trying to decipher his meaning. Did he notice I was hard? Did he have me figured out?
" Your body, you have nothing to be ashamed of. Looking good under the hood as they say"
" Who says things like that, a hooker?" I chuckle.
"Hey if I got paid for those services I wouldn't be driving a rusted hatchback. I don't come cheap."
"And neither do your johns" I quip back before feeling a pair of jeans hit me in the face.
I laugh while my face grows flush. Tom never shied away from his sex life in our talks. I was envious of anyone who got to be held in his strong arms. Feel his warm kisses on their lips and anywhere else he planted them. Riding what I can only assume to be a hefty, girthy...
"Noah!"
I snap back to the present. My mind must have wandered again. At least I didn't drool this time.
"Where do you go when you zone out like that?"
I try to think up a snappy response.
"Just tuning you out as usual."
My deflection works and we go about our usual exercises through the day. As usual we finish early and just hang out. It feels good not to be alone on Christmas eve. I ask Tom if he has any plans for Christmas.
"Just a party at my friends loft tonight. You should come, it would be good for you get out for a bit."
I freeze up. Hanging with Tom one on one was manageable, Fun even, but hanging out in a crowd seemed overwhelming. Too many people, too many factors at play. Why couldn't we just stay here and talk more? Wasn't it enough? Uh oh...I realized I had gone quiet again.
"I...uh...I'm just not feeling it tonight you know? Still dealing with the trauma of you seeing my dick."
I Immediately cringe on the inside.
"No you idiot! God what's wrong with you!" I scream to myself on the inside.
"Oh...well then I guess that's my cue to go. Sorry for creeping you out."
Things were going south fast. I tried to stop him but my words failed before leaving my mouth. Soon I heard the unmistakable sound of my front door shutting. I buried my face in my couch cushion and screamed.
"Why can't you be normal!"
Hot tears welled in my eyes. I was alone in my apartment on Christmas eve and I was probably going to be alone on Christmas.
"Congrats Noah you got your wish." I mutter bitterly.
All I could do was cry in frustration, wishing to myself that I wouldn't be alone on Christmas. Soon my consciousness drifted into an unplanned nap. I woke later in what I can only assume was the middle of the night. I pull myself up to my feet and sadly shuffle and feel my tired self towards my room before colliding face first into a solid mass of a person. He was broad and warm. Tom! He must have come back!
"Tom! Listen I'm so sorry, sometimes I just ramble so hard I put my foot in my mouth. I wasn't creeped out by you, I-"
I'm cut off by the feeling of a gloved finger pressing on my lips to shush me. It slides away and I can feel Tom leaning closer to me. His warm breath brushes against my face, heavy and almost shaky. Bearded lips find mine and on instinct I surrender my first kiss. Tom's strong arms squeeze me to him as my arms snake around his bulky frame. I can't help but admire the softness of his coat as my palms slide over it. His tongue gently pries my lips apart and explores my mouth. I lightly moan at the sensations of his tongue caressing mine. His kiss tastes vaguely of cookies and egg nog. He must have enjoyed some food at the party before coming back.
