Desires
Chapter 3
I had fallen asleep and awoke the late that afternoon. My head was still swimming from the events of the previous night. I had no real understanding of what had happened or even how it had happened. A bit calmer now, I went to the kitchen and fixed myself some coffee maybe that would help. The shock was beginning to wear off, sleep and the coffee helped with that, now maybe I could think a little more clearly and figure out what was going one with me.
As I sat thinking, I knew that I had allowed my sexual arousal to take over, surrendering to my desire for pleasure that was pretty clear to me. The question was not how it had happened, but what was behind my behavior after that initial encounter. I had spent the night with another man, not only that, but it had felt good, felt right, like it was supposed to be that way. Not only had I had accepted it completely, I was eager for more. Fear crept into place and now that I was thinking clearly again, I knew I shouldn't let that happen again, or should I. What was certain was that I need time to think before another encounter like that, time to consider what the implications were, where it would lead my life.
The best I could come up with at that moment was to get my mind off of it for a time and give myself time to recover. Well there was housework and chores that needed attending to so I got dressed and got busy. All day my mind would start wandering and I would need to focus on the task at hand. I would stop later to consider my next actions, but for now I just needed to put it on the back burner. I finally finished what needed doing and set about fixing myself some dinner. Cooking seemed the only task that day that left no room for day dreaming about sex. I had eaten quickly and began cleaning up before my thoughts began addressing my situation.
I fixed another cup of coffee and sat down on the couch, time to face facts. I had sex with another man, not some quickie blow job, I had gone home with a man, let him seduce me, and spent the entire night in his bed. More importantly, the next morning, I had begged him, begged him for more. There wasn't much doubt, my feelings and the tingling in my body I was feeling as I thought about it, clearly indicated I was gay. This was something I hadn't considered. Yeah, I had fantasized about cocks, even masturbated, but this was way more involved than a quick orgasm. This wasn't a sexual fantasy or even a fetish, the feelings I had experienced only had one explanation, I was gay.
I tried rationalizing things but it kept coming back to how being in his bed, being the focus of his sexual desire, had made me feel good, really good. After some thought, I was ready to admit my situation, but what to do about it. I was lost in a world where I had no clear path to follow, no idea of what was next or how to proceed. So, what was my next step, well I didn't think another marathon sex session was right, so what would be right. I finally decided that I should explore this path a bit more, learn more about the lifestyle. There was so little to go on and my resources for information were fairly limited. I decided that my best course was to hit up another bookstore, find some more information on being gay. I wasn't specifically going to go for more porno, though that would be some of it, I needed something with information about more than just sex. After Friday night, I think I had the sex thing down pretty well.
After work the next day I dropped by the library, it had come to me that it may be a good source for information, but it ended up being mostly a dry hole. Society wasn't yet ready to provide information on the gay lifestyle just yet that left me with the bookstore idea. The next question was where I could not go back to the same bookstore where this whole thing started. The possibility of running into my over night lover was to real at the moment and I wasn't sure I wouldn't end up back in his bed again. I would need to find another. There was one I knew about on the other side of town, I would try there.
I made my trip the next evening, arriving fairly early since I wasn't looking for company and the temptation to slip into one of the movie booths was pretty strong. I needed to focus on what I came for, information so I could figure out where my road was leading me. This store was larger than the first so had many more shelves, but just as in the other, hidden away in the back was the gay section. There were more shelves here and more magazines, including a few shelves with movies. I didn't have a projector, but after checking out a few of the titles, I promised myself I would look into buying one. I finally found what I was looking for, a few shelves with books, not magazines, actual books. I browsed the titles and picked out a couple I thought my have what I needed and headed out.
