"It's time. It's going to be fine. I can do this." Jake said to himself as he looked into the mirror on his dresser. "Just be confident in yourself."
As he finished saying those words, there was a knock at his bedroom door.
"Come in!"
The door began to open and Jake heard the voice of his mother, Kathy.
"Your friends are here, sweetie." She said.
"Thanks, mom."
Kathy stood aside and made way for Ryan and Ben to enter the bedroom. They were the same age as Jake and were also the high school friends he was closest to.
"You boys play nice and have fun." Kathy added, shutting the door closed behind them.
The three friends greeted each other and exchanged typical pleasantries. They caught up with each other on general updates since their graduation and had a nice chat together.
"You said you wanted to talk to us about something." Ben said.
"Yeah, what's up?" Ryan asked.
Jake swallowed nervously as he prepared to answer his friends.
"It's something I've thought about for a while now but never had the courage to tell you guys." Jake began. "But recently someone convinced me that I should just get it out there."
Ryan and Ben looked at each other confused before focusing back on Jake.
"So here goes..." Jake added, pausing to take a deep breath. "I'm gay."
Ryan and Ben chuckled to themselves.
"I'm being serious. I'm a homosexual." Jake told them. "Why are you laughing?"
"Are you serious, dude? That's your big news?" Ben asked.
"Yes. I'm atteacted to and enjoying having sex with men." Jake stated.
"We already knew that." Ryan said.
"You did?"
"Hell yeah, dude." Ben added. "Everyone knows. I mean they don't talk about it or anything, but it's always been pretty obvious which way you swing."
"Well did you know about the showers?" Jake asked. "That I used to try and sneak a peak at you when you weren't looking?"
Again the friends chuckled.
"A peak? You mean staring at our dicks and asses?" Ben replied. "Of course we noticed. You weren't very subtle about it."
"How come you never said anything about it then?"
"It didn't bother us." Ryan answered. "I don't care who checks me out. If someone enjoys looking at my cock then more power to them!"
"I feel the same way." Ben agreed. "If looking at my cock or my ass made your day better, I'm happy I could help."
Jake wasn't sure how to feel. On the one hand, in a way, his coming out had gone very smoothly. On the other hand, his friends didn't have much of a reaction to the news he had been worried to share.
"Well damn." Jake said, offering a slight chuckle himself. "I guess I was worried about nothing this whole time."
"For sure, dude." Ryan told him. "No one cares that you're into guys."
Jake smiled, relieved at the support of his friends. It gave him a sudden jolt of confidence knowing his homosexuality was welcomed.
"Well in that case..." Jake began. "... could I interest you boys in a blowjob?"
"For real?" Ben asked.
"You'd really suck our dicks right now?" Ryan chimed in.
"Without hesitation." Jake answered. "I'm not trying to brag, but I think I'm pretty good at it. And I always swallow, too."
Ryan and Ben looked at each other, caught off guard and not sure how to respond.
"I'm not kidding." Jake added. "You guys have always been great friends and I'd like to return the favor. It would be an honor for you to allow me the pleasure of sucking your cock."
"That's quite the offer." Ben said. "I'd probably let you do it, but I'm seeing Kristen later and I should probably make sure I'm good to go. She has a high sex drive so she's probably going to expect me to fuck her."
"I understand. That offer has no expiration date. If you ever decide you'd like a free, no-strings-attached blowjob, I'm here for you." Jake explained. He then turned to Ryan. "How about you?"
"Honestly, it's been kind of a while since I've had my dick sucked." Ryan told him. "I'm actually considering it. Is it gay if I let a guy suck my cock?"
"Hell no." Ben said. "You're just getting a blowjob. It doesn't matter who's giving you head."
"In that case..." Ryan added, still debating with himself internally. "... sure. Sure, I'll let you suck my dick."
"Fuck yes!" Jake exclaimed. "I promise you won't regret it."
"I should probably take off and let you guys get to it." Ben said. "Let me know how he does, Ryan."
"I'll let you know."
Ben left the room, closing the door behind him and leaving Ryan and Jake alone.
"So how do we do this?" Ryan asked. "Would it feel more natural if I got undressed and got into the shower?"
Both friends laughed at Ryan's clever joke.
"No, you can stand right where you are in front of my bed." Jake said. "I'll handle the rest."
Jake knelt down in front of his friend, looking up at Ryan as he tugged on his shorts, pulling them and Ryan's boxers down to his knees. Jake then took a look at his friend's penis, a penis he had observed several times in the gym showers. He was finally going to have it in his mouth.
