Kyle makes Christmas Day something extra special for Josh
For the next couple of days, the boys made calls and traded text messages as they could. Both knew the other was caught up in other things in life at this busy time of the year. Josh was working extra shifts so he could get off early on New Year's Eve and spend it with Kyle; and Kyle tied up being with his family for the first time since summer. Josh would occasionally allow his insecurities bubble to the surface from the lack of physical contact between them, but Kyle would push them back down deep inside him when they had electronic sex several times each day. Between texting and the AOL instant message system, their love life managed to stay active, no matter how busy they were.
Josh snickered to himself as he recalled what was said when he and Kyle were cyber cuddling and chatting in instant messages after one particularly good session on Monday night, the 23rd. That mutual stroke fest via their computers went on for more than two hours; well into the wee hours of the morning; after he had gotten back to the house from working yet another closing shift at the pizza shop. But half the reason for the big smile on his face then wasn't from the closeness they were being able to maintain and still be so far removed from each other. No...that part came from what he was now remembering again: the words Kyle used to once again push any insecurities down and make his young lover glow.
"Joshie...I didn't think it was possible...but you just made me cum almost as much and almost as hard, as if you were really here with me! The things you typed and the way you 'said' stuff...gawd! That creative writing course you always complain about, is paying off babe! Take another! LOL"
Josh laughed out loud as he typed 'ROTFLMAO' and sent it to Kyle. "Unt-huh! One class like that is all I need for my degree."
Babes! You are so good though. Hell you could be a professional writer. Maybe even a successful enough one, that when I am doing residency, you can just stay at home and take care of our cat and dog, and write instead of delivering pizzas...or spending eight hours a day in some cramped four foot by four foot cubicle; kissing faceless, don't give-a-damn, corporate America ass for a paycheck."
Josh didn't realize until later, exactly what Kyle had said in that exchange on the computer screen...'you can just stay at home and write and take care of our cat & dog...' was in there! And it was hooked together with the residency Kyle wouldn't start for nearly three more years. Hooked tighter than two horny bunnies doing their thing. Now he recognized that Kyle had evidently let that slip out unintentionally, since he had quickly shifted the conversation. 'Damn! He is thinking about the future too.' Josh smiled at that thought and then also smiled as he remembered the deal Kyle made him agree to.
"Tomorrow is Christmas Eve baby. I know you are working until 7:00 when they finally close down, and then have that long damn drive to the farm to be with your family. I will be doing our family thing until we leave for midnight mass, and then we all end up back at the house again."
Josh simply typed, "Uh huh," at the pause Kyle took. He then added, "L" to to the screen to let him know he was still listening.
"Well, babes...as much as I want to be with you so bad that night, we are both going to be otherwise occupied, and..."
Josh saw that the pen writing gif had stopped moving on his screen, so he typed: "And what, Kyle?" It was another long 10 seconds before he saw it begin to move again.
"Baby...my love...I want to do something really special with you Christmas day if we can."
"Like what Kyle? Unwrap each other first thing in the morning in cyber again?"
"A little better babes...do you have someplace you can get complete privacy later in the day...maybe a barn or the woods or something? Hell even someplace you can drive the Hummer to and park out of sight."
Josh's mind flashed to that most special spot deep in the woods; next to the waist deep pool fed by the spring. "Uh huh Kyle...real private. Why?"
"Well...after we cyber tonight again, let's do nothing more than edge each other until you can get away from the family and go to that place. Come up with a time...say after 3:00...and I will be at a place I know of up here that overlooks Lake Ontario and wait for you to text me that you are at your spot."
"OK...and?"
"And you will find out then."
"Dammit Kyle! You always do this to me!"
"You best be grinning or laughing right now young man! LOL"
The IM pen gif stayed motionless far longer than Kyle was comfortable about. Just as he was typing 'Josh?' it began to move and he took his hands off the keyboard. He smiled when the only thing that appeared was, "This is gonna be real good isn't it?" and an emoticon of a big yellow head grinning very wide with a mouthful of white teeth popped up on the next line.
"Deff is baby. Trust me!" Kyle found the same yellow face in the drop down box and added it to his message.
"It makes me crazy when you say 'trust me' but you know I do." He added a smilie face to his comment for verification.
Kyle didn't type his first thought after reading that one from Josh. 'Oh how I hope you say those last two words to me in a church someday,' was what his mind regurgitated without warning. Goose bumps arose on his arms like solder bubbles up when a flame hits it. The taste he had in his mouth from the words he wanted to say was sweet, and he also knew he had to swallow it. Hell...he was too scared of having had that thought to himself...there was no way he could drop something like that on Josh this soon, much less while so far apart. His mind raced and finally focused enough to send another smiling happy face to buy time to clear his mind some.
"I have to run over to the dorm and pack before I go to work. I should have already had it done and had my suitcase here; but I have just felt so 'at home' the last few days that I didn't even want to see or smell that oversized old gym locker!"
Kyle came back with "LOL" and that bought him more time...until he reviewed what Josh had said: 'I have just felt so at home the last few days.' He almost literally sat on the fingers that were wanting to type back: 'Consider it just that my lover.' The little Kyle sitting on his shoulder was whispering in his ear: 'No! Don't rush this...or him! Let it happen. Don't push it!' He listened to the little invisible man, no matter how much his heart was telling him not to. Instead, Kyle quickly danced his finger tips across the keys to come up with: "Text me baby! Love you! Bye-bye!" and hit the enter key.
Josh did a rapid ditto back and then closed the lap top when the low tiger growl from the speaker announced that Kyle had signed off.
"Dammit! Yet another one of those mysterious 'trust me' deals!" was said to the bedroom wall in Florida. "It's a good thing I love that man, or I would strangle his fine ass the next time I see him!" He laughed at the sarcasm of his own thoughts and grinned at the big plush orange Tigger propped once again against the headboard of the California king bed. He swore that the plush toy was grinning back at him. "Yeah, Tigger...Pooh does love you...almost too much."
