Prior to college, I had experience with only one guy – a family friend I had grown up with. Our relationship had grown from talk, to showering together, to petting. It really changed during high school to mutual masturbation to blow jobs to me losing my ass cherry. I learned an incredible amount from my friend. But even during this time of discovery, I dated and loved having sex with girls. I was confused, because I just loved sex.
When I went to college, I had broken up with a long term girlfriend of 4 years. We grew apart and she moved on quickly. My freshman and sophomore year were pretty low key...with the exception of masturbation. It was a daily activity which I somehow kept secret from my roommates.
My junior was different. Instead of the typical double room, we ended up in a quad room. One of our roommates left after the first month. He couldn't hack the academic rigor and moved back home to help on the farm. That just left three of us. Tommy, Ryan and me.
Tommy was very athletic and had a body that showed it. He was a swimmer and played rugby in the off-season. He was about 5'10 with sandy blonde hair. His weight went up and down, depending on the amount of booze he ingested and the amount of exercise through sports. At the end of swim season he had a lean, cut body. His upper body was devoid of hair, but his lower body made up for it. He had the most incredibly hair legs. The hair traveled up to his ass and crotch. It was so sexy on him. Tommy always had a girl on his arm.
Ryan was a little over 6' tall. He had brown hair and was gorgeous. Between his passion for biking and his pack a day smoking habit, he had a very tight, lean body. Ryan had a light dusting of hair from his chest down. But just like Tommy, Ryan's back was hairless. Ryan had been dating a co-ed for the last couple of years, but had recently broken up with her.
Me, I am exactly 6' tall, with black hair and had a pretty average physique. During that time I was shaving my chest a bit – getting rid of the small amount of hair I had on my pecs and a bit on my stomach. But I was loosing the battle, as more and more chest and stomach hair came in. Like Tommy, I was a swimmer in high school...so shaving wasn't a big deal for me.
Tommy and I met as freshmen, we both tried out for the college swim team. Tommy made the team, but I didn't. My specialty was the backstroke and American crawl...and they had more than enough capable chaps with times better than me. Tommy's forte was the butterfly and he had gone to state. I was put on an alternate list and was able to practice with the team. While my pride took a direct kick, I decided it would be a good way to keep the freshmen fifteen off my waistline. I enjoyed the practices and burned the images from the gang showers into my memory.
Anyway, back to our junior year. One fall evening, I came back to the dorm after a long night at the library. I was complaining that I hadn't swum in a couple of days due to mid-terms when Ryan suggested I go biking with him. It sounded like a good idea, so we jumped on our bikes and headed out to the nearby woods and trails. The ride started out normal enough, with the regular banter and joking. I told Ryan I had seen his old girlfriend earlier and asked why they broke up.
He answered immediately "because I'm gay."
At the time I was beside him pedaling down a hill about 30 miles per hour. I lost my concentration and kept staring at him. The road curved and I didn't. Luckily there wasn't a tree right in front of me, just a large bush. The bike stopped and I went flying into some tall grass. When Ryan found me I was rolled up in a ball laughing. It was short-lived, however, when I tried to get up my shoulder was killing me and my right leg was burning. Ryan helped me up. My shirt was ripped and I had scuff marks on my shoulder and right side. My leg was throbbing, but I could stand. Riding the bike or walking 5 miles back to campus was out of the question. Ryan rode back to campus and had Tommy come pick me up with his car. While Tommy drove me to the Emergency Room, Ryan rode my bike back to the dorms. I must have looked pretty bad because I was seen immediately. The prognosis was good, I ended up with only a deep thigh bruise and gravel in my shoulder. They patched me up and sent me home. When Tommy and I got to our dorm, Ryan was a nervous wreck. I gave him a tired smile and went right to bed.
