I was groomed nothing is ever what it seems at first.
The Game Of Kings.
Opportunities come at a price that needs repayment.
I was standing at my room window waiting when Iain's polished classic racing green MGB GT with its custom bucket racing seats and deep reverberating throaty roar from it's straight through exhaust, pulled up outside. Iain was my chess tutor and mentor whom I met at my University Chess Club night, where I was a first year Mathematics student and chess was my game of choice. We were driving down to Bowness in the English Lake District for a weekend visit to Sir Harold's who was a retired Chess Grand Master and philanthropist.
Iain had phoned ahead saying as it was a warm sunny day and his car did not have air conditioning he was only going to wear shorts and trainers for the drive down, inviting me to do the same. I was standing there in my tight new sky blue nylon swim shorts and trainers as I grabbed my weekend case, locked up my room set the alarm and went out to meet Iain, who was wearing matching shorts that we had both purchased the preceding weekend. After putting my bag in the boot I clambered into the front bucket seat, fastening the full harness belts which would hold me firmly in place. I followed Iain's lead by discarding my top to the back bench seat as we sat there with only shorts on.
Iain gunned the engine as we headed out of Glasgow to the M8 motorway, between the cars low profile reverberations and its throaty noise it was exhilarating sitting there near naked, almost erotic. Iain asked had I traveled dressed down like this before, I said no but found it quite thrilling. Last summer he said, touring the route 500 in the Scottish Highlands in its remote single track areas he drove naked, with a just in case towel nearby. Would you like to try that one day as we could do that together if you like, I said an entheaustic Yes.
We quickly cleared the city traffic and were heading south on the M74 motorway, which is one of Scotland's most boring arterial routes. We chatted Iain asking me if I had a girlfriend, I said no as I was a bit shy around girls, he said he didn't have that problem as he was gay and meeting guys was much easier. I blurted out you mean you have sex with guys. What's that like? I looked it up on the Web after we had our Uni sexual equality lecture but it didn't really tell you what it was like only what to do. He said you have to experience it to know what it's really like, can be exhilarating.
My curiosity now in overdrive much like Iain's MGB as we thundered south, between the low throbbing vibrations that was passing right though me from the sports car seat and its tight restraining harness, what was just said and wearing tight nylon shorts that were now full of static. I was starting to get stiffening arousal twinges, I was so engrossed now I bluntly asked how he knew he was gay and what did it feel like the first time.
He said my first time, I was about your age and it sort of took me by surprise, like you I was studying mathematics and playing chess at club level. My mentor a Grand Master invited me to his study to play a private game with him, first game I was wiped out in less than fifty moves. He said I wasn't focusing enough and was being distracted by what was around me. He then said take off all your clothes and sit there naked and we will play another game. I didn't know what to say or do but he was a Grand Master, so I stripped off in front of him and stood there naked as he then stripped off too.
We were both now naked together both focused on each other's nakedness, soon we relaxed and he invited me over to sit on the couch with him which had a large towel lying on it. We sat together with our legs gently pressing and rubbing at each other, he said recall the chess game we had just completed and study where each of the pieces are and were before each move. Before long I was replaying the game backwards in my mind, he then put his arm round my back with the palm of his hand resting on my shoulder, leaned over and started to stroke me gently. Then said now replay the game again in your mind. I did and was getting more than just aroused from his stroking I was starting feel movement and drips, as I twitched he said focus on the game you are replaying. My mind was now racing as was my body, thinking can I replay the game before I climaxed, I managed to get about halfway.
He asked me if I enjoyed it, I said yes because I really did. He then invited me to do the same to him, I was clumsy at first as I had never done anything like that before, but I could feel his response rising to my stroking. Suddenly he unloaded over the both of us, saying I enjoyed that too. By now my curiosity was looking for more only to be dashed when he said let's play another game. This time I managed to get to almost a hundred moves before he wiped me out for the second time. Again he had me look at the board and replay the game in my mind while he gently stroked me, this time I remained totally focused on the game but still climaxed with more enthusiasm this time before I reached the hundred moves mark.
That's how it started with me, we progressed each time we played, one day he invited me to his bedroom and our game assignations took on a more adventurist meaning. We became friends and still meet up from time to time. As we continued south Iain tried to explain the feeling he had when he was having sex, it was one of total fulfillment and satisfaction but mainly ecstasy as you climax and afterwards looking forward to the next time. By now I was starting to have problems containing myself and could feel wetness seep through my nylon shorts, Iain did too I think when I saw the sign for the Gretna Services suggested we stop.
As I was getting out of the car I could see a sausage type bulge and wet marks on my shorts, I took my shirt from the back and draped it casually over my bulge as I walked into the Services, which was an erotic walk. I had to go because my excitement was not abating, in a cubicle I ease myself it took me longer than normal, Iain did too I think. I then waited in the concourse for Iain for about another ten minutes, he said bad curry last night, I smiled at that.
We had a Kentucky Fried Chicken meal in the concourse eating area, as we ate our meal I asked Iain why did you let him do that to you. Because I didn't want a boring job, even with a degree in mathematics all I ever would be was a math's teacher or a number cruncher in some office. He could and did give me a break into competitive chess playing on the exhibition circuit and had the contacts to get me sponsorship too. Within a year I was earning ten times what I could expect in an office also had high end sponsorship cars and a five star living style. I worked that circuit for over twenty years, now I am a mentor and talent scout for upcoming stars like you.
I didn't know what to say, was he saying I needed to be gay too or just that he was to make that leap up into fame and fortune. I think he could see that I was confused, tapped the table with both hands, time to continue our journey, onwards and upwards. As we headed back to the car I could feel eyes watching us, was it because the way we were dressed or had they overheard us talking or was I just thinking do I have to do this to make the leap into the exhibition circuit. Back in the car we continued our journey south down the M6 to junction 36 where we left the motorway and headed down to Windermere and Bowness.
This part of the journey took just over an hour during this time I asked Iain did he like being gay. Yes, never regretted it, met a lot of people who accepted me as I was, my parents were a bit reserved at first but remained fully supportive. Particularly when homophobic comments were made offensively or inadvertently but you get that no matter what you are. My dad a retired miner and ex-wartime soldier decked someone in his miners club because what he said about me. I had just treated my mom and dad to a two week cruise in the Mediterranean, their first real holiday other than visiting my mom's sister in Skegness.
We drove down through Windermere onto Bowness then up the lake to Sir Harold's house. It was one of those grand big Lakeland stone two story houses with turrets and ten bedrooms on the lake shore, it had a fantastic secluded patio overlooking the lake. As Iain's car roared across the crunching pebbled driveway up to the house Sir Harold came out to greet us.
