"Steve, I just can't cope with you anymore, I've arranged for you stay with Reverend Morris for a week or so. I need a break from you."
My mum was at the end of her tether with me. I wasn't a bad guy, I just sort of fell in with the wrong crowd. I came from a good home but my dad died when I was 11 leaving my mum to raise me single handedly. I was 21, I'd left school, finished college and was looking for work but had no idea what I wanted to do. I was at a crossroads in my life, one more wrong turn and who knew where I'd end up.
"It's all agreed, I've spoken to Mr Morris and he's agreed to put you up for a week, you need to have some space from that crowd you're with."
Mr Morris was a close family friend, my mum was religious and went to church every Sunday. It wasn't my scene and refused to go, this really upset my mother, her thinking was I may discover God and live a holier life, learn from my mistakes and take my life forward positively.
"Mum, I'm 21, I'm not going, no chance."
"You are, it's all arranged, I need a break. I've booked a train ticket, I'm dropping you off at the station tomorrow morning."
I loved my mum, so I thought about it for a couple of hours and eventually relented and agreed to go. Life was tough for my mum since my dad passed, she worked two jobs and her work ethic put me to shame. I suppose I hid behind my father's death and used it as an excuse to rebel.
Mr Morris had since retired from the parish and had moved to Sheffield from Nottingham. He was about 65 and was a decent guy, he continued to be of great support to my mother as she struggled to cope with me after my father died.
The morning arrived, I packed a small case and my mum dropped me off at the station.
"I love you you know Steve, I just think some breathing space will do us both good. Mr Morris will be waiting at the station for you at 11 o clock. Call me when you get there."
We said our goodbyes and I got onto the train. The journey was just short of an hour, so I was there in no time. I left the station and there was Mr Morris waiting for me at the agreed rendezvous point.
"Hello Steve, glad you could come. Come on, jump in and we'll get you settled in."
In all fairness, he was a nice guy, he was quite handsome in that "old man who's looked after himself" kind of way. He was 6' to my 5' 9". He was wearing a pair of beige trousers, white shirt and tie with a blue v neck jumper. His look was finished off with a smart pair of brogues.
We chatted on the short journey to his house, he'd never been married so lived alone. He committed his life to the church and just got used to life on his own.
We arrived at his detached house in Hillsborough in around 20 minutes. It was very nice, not very modern but it was perfectly fine and worked for him. He showed me to my room which had a single bed, side table with a lamp and a wardrobe.
"Here we are Steve, your home for a week, it's not much but I'm sure it'll be comfortable enough for you."
"Thank you Mr Morris, it's nice."
"Look, call me David, let's not be too formal eh, cup of tea.?"
"Tea would be lovely."
I could feel already that he was having a good effect on me, he was kind and respectful and spoke to me on a level without any judgement. I respected him and respected the way he helped my mum.
"So, what's the issue then Steve, your mum tells me there's a few problems with you?" he asked in his caring way.
"I don't know really, I suppose I just miss my Dad, I don't mean to be a problem and I don't want to be."
"It must be tough not having a father figure around. Your mum really tries her best you know. All she wants is for you to get a job and do something meaningful with your life."
"I know, but I just have no idea what I want to do. It's easier just hanging with my mates I suppose."
"I understand Steve, I really do. What about working for the Lord, it's very fulfilling and rewarding. Your mother would like that, I'm sure." he responded.
"No disrespect David, but it's just not for me. I'm not a believer and I don't think I ever will be."
David smiled and replied,
"Why do you think that is Steve?, it gives people a lot of comfort knowing that there may be something in the after life. The church community is extremely rewarding, helping people out who need support."
"I understand but it's just not for me, besides, how do you enjoy, you know, company, if you work for the church?" I responded naively.
"Steve, things have changed, people are a lot more tolerant now, tell me, do you have a special man or woman in your life?"
"Man?, I'm not gay." I reacted.
"Well, what about a woman, maybe a nice woman will give you more focus, you know, something positive to concentrate on."
"Possibly, I've had girlfriends but they weren't anything special. I suppose there's time, I'm in no rush."
"Absolutely, there is indeed no rush."
"What about you David, why have you never settled down?"
"Ah, well, I have dedicated my life to the church you see. Relationships just got in the way. I prefer my own company these days." he replied.
We had a pleasant evening, he cooked a nice meal of fish, potatoes and vegetables and we shared a bottle of wine. He was a nice guy and I genuinely enjoyed his company. It was 10.30 and David announced he was going to bed as he was "up early for church" in the morning seeing as it was a Sunday.
I woke up fairly late, David had already left, I declined his invitation to join him in going to church as I was going to go for a walk instead. I couldn't get his question about a "special Man or Woman" in my life out of my head. It got me thinking, "was he gay himself?" hence never settling down. It wouldn't have bothered me in the slightest but I was curious. I put it to the back of my mind and jumped into the shower. I dried off, got dressed and made my way into the hallway to grab my coat. I glanced into the kitchen in passing and noticed David's laptop was there. I don't know why but I turned it on and had a quick nose around. There wasn't a password protect to get into it, so I had a look. I was pretty good on computers so I searched his history and was gobsmacked to see porn on there. The subjects ranged from old and young to masturbation. I have to say, it turned me on thinking that he liked porn, especially as he was a man of the cloth. I suppose it doesn't matter who you are, if you like porn and it turns you on then who cares. I closed his laptop and went for that walk.
It was a decent walk, but not much to see as it was mainly closed shops but it was a different environment and a change of scenery. I couldn't get his computer out of my mind and his "special Man or Woman" question. I thought about it a lot, maybe I was gay and I was in denial, no, I wasn't gay, I liked girls. Maybe I was trying too hard to convince myself, was it was the porn on his computer?, I was in conflict but the more I thought about it, the more turned on I became at the possibility of exploring my "other side".
I returned from my walk and David was already home, I walked into the kitchen and he was at his laptop.
"Hi Steve, good walk?"
"Yes thanks, just had a long stroll, just trying to clear my head, how was church?"
"Very good, a large congregation today which was nice."
"Excellent, what you looking at?"
"Oh, just church stuff, just responding to emails, that kind of thing." came his response.
"Oh, OK...listen, I'm going to grab a shower, is that OK?"
"Of course, you know where it is."
I made my way upstairs and decided I was going to push myself, I wanted to see how far I could take my sexuality. I was turned on by the old and young scenes on his computer so I decided I wanted to explore my limits, I wanted to find out who I was. I turned the shower on and left the door wide open, hoping David would catch a glimpse. Maybe he'd stay downstairs, but maybe he'd come up, I was excited. The beauty of it was that nobody would ever find out as I was out of town and David wouldn't want to promote anything to anyone. I had my back to the wide open door as I washed myself, the sponge extra soapy as I washed myself, my cock was in a semi state of arousal at the thought of being seen. I looked down and started to play with myself, gently stroking my cock and cupping my balls in anticipation of being seen. My finger reached under my sack and caressed my soapy hole, gently rubbing my index finger over it, resisting the temptation to slip it in. I loved this new found freedom and confidence, maybe it was there all the time and just needed a spark to coax it out. Was David the spark?, I wanted to find out. I'd been in the shower for 5 minutes so I turned it off and stepped out, towelling myself dry, again, the door wide open. I was so excited at the thought of being seen, hoping he was going to catch me. I realised I was upstairs alone still as I could hear him moving around downstairs. I decided to go downstairs with my towel wrapped around me, still partially wet.
"Oh hi Steve, good shower?"
I noticed he had a good look at my torso.
"Yes, really good, nice and hot thanks."
"Do you know, I think I'm going to shower too, it's been a long morning so I'm going to refresh myself."
He went upstairs and I had another quick peek at his computer, he'd minimised a window so I looked and he was looking at younger males in their twenties masturbating. The video was of a guy of around 25, perfectly tanned body, masturbating in front of an older guy of around 70 who was wanking himself off as he watched. I was so turned on. If you'd have said two days ago I'd be watching gay porn in an older man's house, I'd have laughed at you. But here I was, enthralled and unbelievably turned on at the thought. I snook upstairs and the bathroom door was slightly open. David was in the shower in the same position as me, with his back to the door. He looked great for his age. He was fairly toned but starting to sag slightly but his buttocks looked really firm. My hand reached for my cock as I spied on him unknowingly. I was dripping pre cum as my fingers caressed the slit of my cock, I couldn't believe how turned on I was. David turned the shower off so I quickly went into my room, door ajar, completely naked. I heard him go to his room and all I could think of was how I was going to see his cock, I knew now at this moment that I definitely wanted it.
