(Dear friends: You really must start by reading all three of the previous chapters to understand this story at all, and enjoy it. Trust me, it's worth the effort. As a reminder, in the tale I am 23, and Phil is in his late fifties. Phil has a passing resemblance to Gregory Peck at that age...you can search it. We are in Phil's penthouse at the end of our day of shopping.)

"Go on then, Jameson, take that shower," said Phil with a smile. "It's just us now." He switched on some light jazz and began opening up the packages from the restaurant. I watched his back for a moment, draped as always in a well-tailored suit. I tried to imagine him naked, and I could not.
Then finally I turned away and walked to the guest roomโa cozy little bedroom and bath filled with shelves of mementos from Phil's travels around the world: statues and masks from Africa, a paddle hung on the wall from the south seas, a kachina doll, a signed soccer ball, and much more. A smallish window looked to the east, to the skyscrapers close by and searchlights around the stadium.
On the twin-sized bed were the clothes laid out for me by Carl, and in the center were precisely the items Phil had just asked me to wear: the darker of the two green no-lapels Italian jackets (more appropriate for evening), very small white shorts, and those white, form-fitting briefs with the tight, expandable sock for a man's genitals. Apparently, Phil and Carl had discussed my wardrobe for the night.
On the side table was a note: "Dear boy, you should have asked. Given your uninteresting history, I am not worried about you." Stapled to the note was a medical report on Phil from five days earlier, showing negative on several terrifying tests.
I laughed at the note and at my own naivete in such things.
Then I stared at the clothing, and I was momentarily filled with doubt, much worse than on the drive over; for now, I was at least momentarily alone, away from the powerful presence of Phil. I stripped down to the silken jockstrap and I went and looked at Downtown L.A. again, then at myself in the mirror, remembering with amazement my submissive behavior all day long: how I had played the Obedience Game and how it had aroused me at every point. How I'd been on display at the menswear store. Did I look the part of a "boy" at 23? Perhaps. Had I enjoyed that feeling of obedient arousal all day long, including when Phil stroked me through my pants in the car?
The answer was yes. Yes, I enjoyed it. Indeed, thinking about it began to arouse me even now. But was I right to enjoy it, or was there something fundamentally wrong with such enjoyment? The Game seemed so...so fundamental to my nature. It fulfilled so deep and lifelong a desire, going back to my earliest sexual fantasies. Even my sometime attraction to Lori, I realized, had something to do with her evident control over me. "You are all in now, Jameson," I said aloud, pulling off the silken jockstrap
In the shower, I washed myself ever so carefully, thinking about how Phil said so casually to the owner of the menswear shop that he would have me shaved. When he had said that it had given me an erotic surge...partly from the tone of possession in his voice, partly from the intimacy of the statement to a stranger. Now, standing naked in the shower, I stroked my fingers through my pubic hair and through my underarm hair, and actually tasted the water, tasted my maleness in the water. "A little landing strip of pubic hair" he had said. Fuck. What would that be like? Not just my clothing, but my body hair controlled by Phil, sculpted as he desired. Phil choosing my food when we went to dinner. Phil choosing where I would live, and who would be my lovers. But as I thought these thoughts and looked for any sign of rebellion in my soul, my penis grew to an erection, and in my imagination I saw Phil mounting me from behind, entering my ass. Indeed, my penis stayed erect as I toweled off carefully and pulled on the form-fitting white brief with the clinging cock and balls sock that he had requested. I pulled the tight white shorts over my erection with some difficulty, then slipped on the beautiful Italian jacket without a shirt, admiring my flat belly and defined abs as I knew that Phil would admire them.
I wanted to please him. I really did.
"Jameson," I said aloud as I replaced the golden chain bracelet Phil had given me, "What is the point of thinking after today? You have given up thought in this matter. At 7 a.m. this morning, when you masturbated at Phil's command, you stepped past thinking, and you have enjoyed being an obedient boy all day. Don't think anymore."
We would have dinner and then we would have sex. I would have sex with a man for the first time in my life, but mostly I would be having sex with Philโa man at least twice my age (and maybe more, I didn't dare ask). Or perhaps I should say that Phil would be having sex with me. My Sir will be having sex with his boy. That is what I wanted, and that is what I had just a small taste of Thursday night when he had held my testicles in front of his picture window, and I had parted my ass cheeks to show him my anus.
"It is decided," I said aloud. Carl had left a pair of white leather sandals at the foot of the bed. I slipped these on and exited the bedroom.
Dinner was laid out on a small white lacquer table by the huge picture window looking west from our great height, across the multi-colored sparkle of the megacity, out toward the darkness of the sea. All sunlight was gone now, and this being L.A., only a few stars shown; but I could see a surprising number of lights in the sky from airplanes and helicopters, moving slowly like fireflies across the bright landscape.
Phil stood smiling, holding out my chair for me. He was still in his dark gray suit. Indeed, he had re-tightened his tie.
"You look beautiful, Jameson. Thank you so much for today. I will never forget how fun it was to dress you properly."
"Thank you, Phil, for the clothes. And it was an incredible day. I hate to think what you spent."
"I am especially honored by your erection right now, dear boy. Really, I had not expected it in anticipation of the evening. I believe you are erect because you are wearing the clothes I asked for and you are still feeling the Obedience Game."
"You're probably right, Phil," I said, without embarrassment. After all, all day I had been on display, with and without erections as I had tried on clothes for Phil and the shopkeepers. Carl the chauffeur had even seen me erect in the back seat of the BMW. Embarrassment, it seemed, was a thing of the past. Embarrassment was now something other people wrestled with, people who had not agreed to an Obediences Game. I had always been easily stimulated, since the first stirrings of my puberty. Embarrassment had dogged those days. No more.
"Jameson," he said with a smile and a voice of playful command, "Stand up, unzip your fly, and let the sock with your penis and testicles out while we dine. I don't want them uncomfortably trapped in those shorts. You won't enjoy your dinner." (Readers will recall that in our relationship, Sir had a cock while I had a penis.)
"Yes, Phil," I said with a little laugh. I stood up and unzipped the fly on the very tight white shorts and pulled out my genitals, fully defined in the sock. Then I sat back down.
"Great game, you have to admit, my boy."
"As you said, it keeps an erotic edge to just about everything."
"You will love this wine," he said, as he poured for me and for himself, then sat. We were angled so we could both look out at the view...and so that Phil could reach over and touch me with his left hand if he wished.
"Now tell me your thoughts about male sex," he said.
"Male sex?"
"Yes, male-to-male sex."
"I...I've never tried it."
