Ch.03: Robbie opens up to new experiences.
The stroll back to the shop was the opposite of a walk of shame. Max led the way, walking backwards for most of the time, casually avoiding tripping and falling. This weird cloud of sexual awkwardness I expected never showed- instead we chatted like two new friends getting to know each other. He was incredibly attractive and I knew that he was into me, but this morning established that a relationship with each other wasn't what we wanted. And the more I thought back to my time with Darren and Colby before him, the more I knew a relationship was the last thing I needed.
We got back to the parking lot and went straight to the shop. Max pulled out his keys and unlocked the front door as the two of us stepped inside and out of broad daylight. The same fluorescent lights fell on me as I stood in the middle of the entrance, waiting to see what was in store. Max patted the countertop, telling me to hop up as he instructed, "Stay here. Let me grab everything I have in mind."
"I don't even get to see what you're picking out?"
"Nope. Just sit here and look pretty." He said with a smirk as he disappeared into the shelves.
I swung my legs back and forth like the pendulum of a grandfather clock, ticking away as I sat there wondering what I was getting myself into. In the world of sex play, I was as vanilla as they came. Before I moved here, I hadn't so much as kissed a guy, instead I'd only ever given hand jobs because apparently letting another guy touch your dick wasn't gay. The dude came out shortly after graduation which was a surprise to everyone in our class, except me.
Once college rolled around, my virginity weighed on me like the Freshmen Fifteen. And much like my classmates who'd packed on pounds from The frozen pizza and the soft serve ice cream in the school cafeteria, I was determined to lose it. That night eventually came in the form of a house party that Theo dragged me to. He was just as much of a desperate virgin as I was. And by the end of the night we'd both made it back to our respective dorm rooms with a partner in hand. Mine came in the form of Mikey, a cute brunette who admitted to me once we got to my room that he too was a virgin. The night was full of awkward laughs, confused looks and an over use of the question "Is this okay?" It was fine, for the most part, but I'd always had an urge for something more, even though I never knew what that was. Even with my last two boyfriends, I'd had this constant feeling at the back of my mind that the sex I was having wasn't what It should have been.
Max came back with dozens of packages in hand as my self-reflection came full circle . He splayed them all out on the counter and my eyes grew wide as I looked at the haul.
"Decided to pick up a little bit of everything."
I reached for the skimpy jockstraps he brought out, "Dude there's barely any material on these!"
"That's kinda the point, Robbie." He said with a snicker." These straps will really accentuate that cute ass of yours and this pouch will hold your cock in place even when you're hard." I nodded, wondering how I'd ever be able to go about my day in something so skimpy. But I knew that they'd look good on me, so I didn't fight it.
The more I moved down the counter, the wilder the merchandise got. I didn't question the dildo he picked out because it was smaller than he was, and something told me I wouldn't have a need for fake cock anytime soon. My eyes did sear into the bright red butt plug that sat beside it, with it's tapered tip pointing up at the ceiling.
"There's no way this is going to fit in my ass." I said as I looked at Max like he was crazy.
He patted my shoulder, "Trust me, it'll fit. This one's part of a set so we can start you off small and work your way up to this."
I raised an eyebrow, "Oh so you've use butt plugs before?"
"I bought a set of my own a week after I started here." He flashed me a wicked grin as I turned a shade of pink, "Once it's in, it's like having your prostate constantly stimulated. You can even slip on your clothes and go the entire day on edge... if you're brave enough."
I took the plug from him and set it along the rest of the stuff I was actually going to purchase. I didn't need any more convincing. The thought of having something in my ass all day and the thrill of being the only person to know was enticing enough.
Max walked me through the rest of the items he had in store and one by one, they slowly made it into the purchase pile. Fresh bottles of lube, poppers, cock rings, beads and even a few prostate massagers joined the rest of the items. Truth be told, Max could have slipped in a thousand dollar sling and I would have agreed to it. The boy had this youthful nature about him even in the most adult situations. It was refreshing- to say the least- to be immersed into a world that I barely stuck my toes in, but his confidence that I'd enjoy myself was reason enough.
He rung the items up and I could hear the beeping of the scanner like a heart monitor, steady and unwavering. Not even bothering to look at the total, I handed him my debit card which he swiped right after entering his employee discount. A large opaque plastic bag later, and we were set. Just as I hopped off the counter, the door swung open, signaling that familiar chime.
A tall guy who looked about my age stepped inside. Max called out to him as his tanned skin bathed in the sunlight from the strips of un-tinted glass. "Hey sorry buddy, we're actually closed right now. We open back up at four."
Slipping his hands out of his skinny jean pockets, the guy replied, "My bad, man. I saw the lights on and figured you guys were open." He turned, placing his hand on the latch and opening the door.
