Last summer, some friends from college and I rented a cabin in upstate New York for our annual boys' trip. We were all ex-college football players, and though now 32 and not as fit as we used to be, still a big loud bunch.
There was a new addition this year though. My buddy Matt had recently come out as gay, to most of our surprise, and asked if he could bring his boyfriend. The WAGs usually didn't tag along but since he was a guy we figured what the hell, bring him. I think a few of us were also curious to see Matt and his significant other in action.
It's not that we were bigots or anything, but like I said he'd only just come out and none of us expected it. We were all happy for him but also didn't have much experience, which made this trip the perfect opportunity to open our minds.
Everyone arrived separately since we'd all moved around by now. I was the first to get there, having just flown in from Scottsdale. Others followed: Jeffrey, Eric, Ben, Kyle. We reminisced over our frat boy football days, partying it up, pounding booze, tearing through pussy.
Always eager to gossip, Jeffrey asked us if we were excited to meet Devin, Matt's boyfriend. They lived in the city and were still driving up.
"I think it'll be good to see Matt in a relationship for once," said Eric, our most pragmatic friend. He didn't even comment on the fact that the relationship was with a guy, but then again Eric was always cool as a cucumber.
"I'm just glad he finally gets to be himself," replied Ben, a happy-go-lucky dude.
"Me too," said Kyle, which I thought was funny since he definitely wouldn't have said that back in the day. But hey, I can't judge him for something we probably all used to think. We'd matured.
After a few beers, I heard gravel crunch out front and Ben went to greet the happy couple.
"Look who it is!"
Matt came in to say his hello's and he and I shared a particularly warm embrace. We'd once been really close and I was upset I'd never noticed he was gay. Not because I cared, but because I hoped he hadn't stayed closeted because of something I'd said.
"How the hell do you park that thing in Manhattan?" I asked him, referring to his big ass 2016 4Runner.
"Not in Manhattan anymore, man. Moved out to Brooklyn during COVID, got a great deal. It's actually where I met Devin. We live in the same building if you can believe it."
"You don't say! And it's great to meet you Devin."
Standing next to Matt was his boyfriend, a normal looking 26 year old. Only an inch shorter than Matt, he fit right in with the rest of us, although it was pretty obvious he didn't play football. We were all close to the 200 lb club if not well in it, while Devin was slim and toned. I clocked him at about 160.
"It's nice to meet you, too."
Alright, he talked like a normal guy. Not that I would've cared.... but still, he did. I wasn't sure if we were supposed to hug or what but he stuck his hand out to shake. Bit weaker grip than some, but hey, who cares. All of these rapid observations led me down a taboo path and I found myself wondering who between them... you know... took it up the butt....
I know, I know, that's crass. But come on! A guy gets curious! It seemed pretty obvious to me with their age and size difference, not to mention Devin's smooth face which looked as though it might also extend downward. Alright, why was I thinking about that?
"We're gonna go put our shit our away. You guys wanna fire up the grill?"
"Sure thing."
The second they were out of earshot Jeffrey asked scandalously, "Soooo, what did everyone think?"
"He seemed like a perfectly nice guy," answered Eric. "I'm happy for Matt." I couldn't help but agree.
"I think it's kinda cool, you know, having a gay friend," said Kyle, which was rather heartwarming.
"I do too," said Ben, then added, "not to be weird or anything, but Devin was pretty good-looking? Right?"
"I was wondering who was gonna say it," laughed Jeffrey. "I think we can all admit our friend scored some good tail!"
We were all secure enough in our sexualities to acknowledge an attractive guy. And it was true, Devin really was good-looking. He kinda looked like one of those David statues: curly brown hair, blue eyes, high cheekbones, nice chin, toned arms and legs... I sound gay but he would've been considered "cute" if not "hot" by most standards.
"So.... Who do you think...?" Jeffrey added salaciously after we'd stopped laughing.
"Shut up," frowned Ben and punched his arm. "It's none of our business."
"Maybe they both do," pondered Eric, who seemed as though he was trying to parse out male intercourse in his head.
"I doubt it," chuckled Kyle. "Not to be mean or anything, but come on. Did you see them together? You really think Devin... to Matt?"
Kyle was putting one finger through a hole in his others and everyone groaned. But let's be real, he was probably right.
While the rest of the guys went out back to work on dinner, I decided to shower. After grabbing a towel from my room, I noticed Matt and Devin were staying next to me. I was just gonna walk by but my curiosity got the best of me and I listened in.
"Do you like everyone so far, babe?" Matt asked his boyfriend.
"Yeah, they all seem pretty chill. And damn, you weren't kidding. Your friends are like... super fucking hot."
"I told you you'd like them, didn't I? Bunch of football guys in one house, it's like your dream."
"Hehehe, maaaaybeee...."
Devin leaned his head up and kissed Matt. My friend very sweetly kissed his boyfriend back and I was pleasantly surprised to see him be so intimate. Cradling Devin's jaw, holding his hand. I'd only seen Matt drunkenly hook up with sluts so this was pretty new for me. And it was nice, he looked really happy.
"Do you want me to....?" I heard Devin ask, and as I peered closer noticed he was rubbing Matt's crotch.
"Yeah, we've got time. Dinner won't be ready for a while."
"Okay," Devin giggled, then dropped right down to his knees.
