Dinner with Brent and Kirk was always something we looked forward to. The food, typically ordered in advance by Brent, was always good and different. Tonight we were doing Greek—from the little taverna about two blocks away.
When we arrived, Kirk and Brent had obviously just emerged from the shower—their hair was wet and there were a few droplets here and there. We knew shower sex was something they loved. They both looked spent and Brent was obviously holding some of Kirk inside. All four of us realized that only seconds before, we were being transported to the pleasures of heaven by our partners. "I guess there are no secrets among us, are there? We've all already had our appetizers!"
We moved into an easy conversation—a continuation of the updating stories of our experiences. Everything was casual. Old friends who knew each other well were just catching up after a time of satisfying sex.
Kirk brought us up to date on his video venture, already renewed for the next season. He talked about the prairie, the log cabins, the primitive life. While many of the background scenes had been shot in rural Minnesota, Kirk's "prairie" was actually inside a film studio on Long Island. And the log cabin had been created by set designers from very modern materials. He loved every nostalgic bit of it—even if Yellow-cabs and Ubers were rolling just outside the studio doors. This was the heritage of his family, making him wistful about earlier, simpler days.
But, then, with a totally straight face, he asked. "What do you think gay folks did then? Did they repress everything? Did they do it, but keep it quiet, in constant fear of being found out? I know we've come far in so few years. I don't think there were fewer gays 100s of years ago. But for thousands of years and still in many places, people with natural urges are persecuted. The level of societal self-denial was simply unimaginable."
"Don't get me started about how this still is in the south. It is really amazing how many folks think they have all the answers—and that they are channeling what they think is divine revelation. When it's really, "Just the way we've always done things." Those Evangelical Christians are so certain in their beliefs. To hear them speak, the number of divine appearances and revelations has exploded even with the decline in basic social manners and church-going. Anything that is different from the way they do things is unacceptable, sacrilegious, and should be illegal."
"We can't let them win." This was a conversation we had had before—and we knew we weren't going to resolve the issues in their living room.
To lighten things up a bit, Brent opened another bottle of white and poured liberal amounts in each glass. Then, he changed the subject. "We've secured the first show for the beta testing of the new lighting system. It's a new musical adaptation of Tom Jones...."
"Fuck, not Tom Jones," I shouted. "Don't you remember that was Michael's. It wasn't a musical—but it was his breakthrough in New York. His first non-gay role. And, fuck, what a non-gay role that turned out to be. I think he managed to strip a half dozen times and take four different women to bed in less than two hours. Given his subsequent history—and our past—that was probably the most difficult role he ever played."
Brent and Kirk began to laugh, deep belly laughs. They knew Michael well.
Trey was curious. "I've never met this Michael. Is he going to do this musical?"
"I haven't heard. In fact, I haven't heard from him in more than a year. I know he's been in New York, but we didn't even get together for a drink. I think he's definitely a Hollywood guy now."
Brent added, "I checked. Michael is not in the cast. It's a small production with a lot of new faces. And it has the right level of improv for our test. Give me a break, Flip. Don't you think I'd have told you if Michael were involved?"
Trey was not mollified, "So tell me about him."
"You really don't want to know. When you get below the surface beauty and physique, he's a real jerk. He can't keep his dick in his pants—even if his life depended on it. Incidentally, you've got a nicer dick. And you use it very well, thank you."
"But you saw something in him, didn't you?"
"Trey, that was a long time ago--BT."
Trey dropped the subject, but I could tell we weren't finished yet. We talked shop for awhile, and Kirk mentioned that he'd had a feeler about another revival—but they wouldn't even give him the title. But, he guessed it was South Pacific. "I told them to come back to me when they've got it mostly put together. I like doing TV, but it usually means that I've got eight or so months on my hands every year. I need something more." Throughout, I noticed that Brent was carefully watching all of Kirk's body language. Brent had told me before that he allowed Kirk to "roam" a bit on the set—but the TV drama, set on the prairie had not so far been fertile ground for him to plant. He was the only gay in the cast as far as he knew. Maybe he needed another shot at Broadway to find outlets for his "tension." I wondered how Brent felt about that.
It was getting late, and we could tell that Kirk and Brent had plans for a second act. So, we stood and thanked Brent for dinner—and the room. He led us to one of the guest rooms and I headed into the bath. Brent went to a dresser and pulled out a DVD. He handed it to Trey. "This will tell you everything you need to know about Michael." It was a collection of all of my porn flics—and more than half were with Michael.
As I came out of the bath, Brent was leaving, but I noticed the DVD in Trey's hand. "What's that?"
"Brent just handed this to me. Do you just want me to look through this? Or do you want to provide me with some background? I know I wasn't your first, Flip. But, I sure as hell want to be your last. You've never really told me anything about that part of your life. I don't think I'll ever understand Brent's attitude toward Kirk's extra-curricular activities."
"I know about Hanover and your Dad. And someday, I hope to meet your brother. But there's a whole part of Flip's life—more than a year—before you arrived in New York. Can we talk about it?"
"Only if I get to prove to you that you are my love, my only love, after I've finished.
I explained my arrival in Houston—disclosing for the first time really that I had two sisters, both still working in Houston. One is engaged, and the other is about to be.
"So you've got a big family—a brother and two sisters."
"Yeah, I'm number three in the lineup. The girls are older."
"And how about your Mom and Dad."
"Never met Mom. She left when I was two or three. I don't know where she lives, whether she's alone, or even whether she's still living. Dad raised us, but after she left, things started going downhill. My oldest sister took the brunt of the work and the abuse—until she finally left. My other sister followed two years later when my brother hit high school. Dad drinks. Sometimes a lot. We got beat up a lot. He started calling me a fag before I even knew the word—I can't imagine how he guessed. And my bro was his favorite, a womanizing jock with bedroom eyes and a wandering dick. I think Dad tried to visualize himself in Eddie. But, believe me, Dad wasn't even close. Eddie is the prize of the litter."
"And how about Houston?"
"One day, I just left. I had graduated from Tech and he was riding me every day. Once or twice I thought he was going to rape me. Once he caught me in the barn with three friends. We were doing a round-robin, high on drugs and booze. Dad just stood there screaming obscenities and chasing my friends off. I could tell he was high on something—and he was definitely hard. I knew what was coming. And I'm not into old fat guys—or incest. So I just left. Bunked with my sisters for a few days, got a job doing electric on some housing developments and started dancing at the Peacock."
"I got better at the dancing—and I learned to attract the tips from the patrons. Once or twice, I hooked a rich guy or a powerful guy. But mostly I had randy younger partners, often several a night."
"Then Marty decided he wanted to monetize me—so he set up some film trials. The first are on that DVD, I'm sure. I was an immediate hit, and made a few dozen more. My favorite partner was often Michael. Often there were threesomes. Once they even did an orgy—but those were really expensive to make. You know how those porn videos are made."
"Incidentally, that's not his real name, but it stuck. Michael had done drugs and was a professional escort and porn star. He had a great body, and he loved taking dick—the bigger the better. He was a real cum-dump. But, I fell for him. Months later we both escaped to New York, and you know the rest. I thought we were happily-ever-after guys until he got his break in Hollywood. It's what he always wanted. Including the variety and guys. He liked being a free agent, sampling the various offerings. Like so many others, he was on a constant quest for a bigger dick. I think he found one—hung on a married guy who rep-ed the big Middle Eastern entertainment money. I'm guessing they still get together from time to time. Michael could never resist a humongous cock on a real alpha. He loved both the size and the danger. Finally, I decided we didn't have a future. We were just too different. I kicked him out—and we've not talked since."
"Flip, your dick is big enough for me."
