It was beaut having Uncle Rob's mate Guy over for the evening. He's always up for a laugh and it's great how his no-nonsense way of speaking and brash sense of humour are so at odds with the airs and graces Uncle Rob puts on.
It was especially great, though, because I knew there was a lot more on the cards than just a fun night with my uncle, Guy and my cousin Jake. Uncle Rob had told me earlier that day that after we'd all gone to bed, he and his plumber friend were going to be having sex together.
And not just a bit of dick rubbing or a suck of each other's cocks like me and Jake were doing!
The two big blokes were going to go the whole way together - proper up-the-butt stuff with one guy's chopper actually inside the other dude's arsehole. If you'd seen the two of them - just two normal middle-aged men laughing and joking as they had a few drinks - you wouldn't have believed they were going to do the deed together doggy-style after light-out.
But in spite of how ordinary they looked together, Uncle Rob had told me they were going to 'anally copulate' as he'd dorkishly put it. He'd also let slip - and maybe it was a case of too much information - that Guy is usually the one who gets to play hide the sausage.
We got a takeaway and ate it watching a movie and passing around bottles of beer, and all the time I couldn't stop myself from thinking how Guy was soon going to be slamming his hips hard and fast against my dad's brother's arse. Guy was brandishing a hefty bulge in his jeans and obviously had a fat meaty cock stashed away down the front of them, and for some reason I found it totally fascinating that within just a couple of hours it was going to be pounding in and out of my uncle's furry gape.
It just seemed so weird that the two of them were boyfriends, if I can call them that. Actually I don't think they'd like that label - Uncle Rob has only ever described Guy as a 'friend' and I really can't see Guy wanting to be called another dude's boyfriend.
I guess they were mates who happened to enjoy getting together for sex sometimes, and that was something I was really starting to like the idea of. There were guys back in Brisbane who I could see myself playing around with if they'd be up for some occasional no-strings fun with another dude. We'd maybe go out for a few drinks, perhaps play a couple of rounds of pool or something like that, and then head back for a stopover together the way mates do. Except in our case we'd have some fun with each other on the bed before we went to sleep.
I could now see it was a really cool thing to be able to do with a mate and it was something I could imagine myself getting into if I could find a few other like-minded lads back home. After all, that was pretty much what me and Jake were getting into, and it sure felt great to get sexy with him - so much so I was keen to move things on further.
The previous day, we'd gone over to meet a couple of his friends, had done a few flips at the skateboard park and then spent a couple of hours in front of the XBox. Then the two of us had gone back to his place and had played around with our dicks and done stuff with each other's butts until we'd spooged off together and then gone downstairs for tea with his dad.
That's how I wanted sex to be: fun and casual, and with no promises about commitment or any shit like that.
Staying with Jake and Uncle Rob had shown me that I was probably more into guys than I was into girls but, like my cousin and uncle, I wasn't comfortable about having the word 'gay' attached to me. Maybe given time I'd get to accept the label, but it didn't feel right just yet.
While Uncle Rob was bending over to fill up our drinks during a lull in the movie, I noticed Guy checking out his arse in the back of trousers. Any lingering disbelief I'd had that the two men really were discreet lovers was laid to rest: I could see from the interest in Guy's eyes how much he was looking forward to having Uncle Rob's two pudgy butt-cheeks all to himself that night.
And later on, when I was collecting empty bottles to help Uncle Rob out, I saw the same look in Jake's eyes as peered over at my two bubble buns straining inside the seat of my jeans. It was clear from the way he fixed his gaze on my rear that too was looking forward to having his turn on the tight Aussie tush just a few feet away from him.
I decided that if Uncle Rob was going to give his mate a taste of Furlong butt after bedtime, then I'd do the same favour for his son on the other side of the bedroom wall.
I smiled over at Jake while he was staring so hungrily at my behind, but when he saw that I'd caught him in the act he looked embarrassed that his lust had appeared so obvious. When I grinned broader and nodded as if to say, "It's all yours for the pluckin', bud!" he chuckled and winked at me before licking his lips to confirm he was as up for it if I was.
And I did feel I was now up for it. The moment felt pretty right.
Tonight was the sort of opportunity I'd been waiting for when I'd told Jake I wanted our first sex to be 'special'. I hadn't meant that in any sort of romantic sense - I didn't have those kinds of feelings for my cousin and couldn't imagine ever feeling like that about another dude. It was just that since I was still a virgin (in pretty much every sense), I wanted our first proper intimacy together to be more than just a mass of writhing and grunting underneath his doona.
I wanted it to be fun and sexy - two mates who happen to be horny for each other playing around together and having a laugh. So if Uncle Rob was doing pretty much that with his friend Guy, what better time could there be for me and Jake to join in having some fun of our own in the nextdoor bedroom?
When I took the empty beer bottles into the kitchen, Jake surprised me by following me in.
"Did that look you threw me mean what I think it meant?" he asked as I put the bottles by the sink.
I turned to him and smiled. "Depends on what you think it meant!"
He walked over so he was very close to me. When he spoke I could smell the hops and alcohol on his breath. "That maybe... while dad and Guy are doing their thing... you'd be up for doing something similar with me...?"
"It'd be kind of hot, wouldn't it?" I chuckled, our lips so close we could just crane our necks together and kiss. "The big boys pounding away together... the son and the nephew joining in in the next room..."
"You are talking about going the whole way, aren't you?" Jake clarified. "I mean, are you saying you'd be up for doing that with me?"
"I reckon so," I smiled.
Jake smiled back and for a second I thought he really was going to kiss me. But instead he asked, "What about the stuff you said this morning? Being worried about the smell and stuff...?"
I admit that I was still seriously worried about the nuts and bolts of having bum sex with Jake. What if my arse made a stink while my cousin was fucking me? What if I farted or made a mess of his bed? Or what if I went to shag him and found the smell of his butt or the state of my cock when it came out of him so totally gross that I'd end up retching?
It seemed like a total minefield, if I'm honest, but I'd figured that I'd rather venture across it with an experienced guy like Jake who I could trust not to make a big deal if things did go wrong.
I said, "I'd prefer to figure it all out with you, mate, instead of with some guy back in Brissy who might not be so patient..."
He smiled and patted me on the arm. "We can take it as slow as you like, bud. And if you don't like doing it one way - or you're embarrassed or whatever - there's plenty of other stuff we can have fun doing!"
"Aye aye," called out a deep voice behind us, the amusement in it obvious. "What's going on in here, then?"
It was Guy, grinning broadly that he'd walked in on us getting up close together in a near-smooch.
Jake stepped away from me and smiled back at the favourite of his dad's many male callers.
"Just a bit of cousinly affection," he said. "We haven't seen each other in like eighteen years or whatever... we're just making up for lost time!"
"Trust you, Jake," Guy laughed. Then to me, "I hope you're not letting him corrupt your Aussie innocence!"
"Too late, mate!" I joked back. "It's pretty much all gone!"
"There's just one bit of innocence left for me to corrupt!" Jake smirked at the bigger man. "And you never know... tonight could be the night!"
"Yeah?" Guy chortled.
"I'm hoping!" Jake laughed.
