It was the summer of 1989, and I had just turned 19: legal drinking age in my part of the world. Tim Burton's Batman destroyed the competition in movie theatres. Roseanne and Cheers were the biggest shows on TV. Radio was still a popular medium, and Madonna and Prince ruled the airwaves. The internet and cellphones as we know them were still years away.
I was hired as a general construction labourer by a firm that was building a number of sub-divisions around the city. Most of the work in my first two weeks had consisted of moving things for the sub-contractors and tradesmen: lumber, drywall, insulation, paint, or whatever I was told. The work broadened my shoulders and built muscle in my arms and chest; I could see a difference even after ten days. Nobody thought anything of the threat of skin cancer back then, and most of us went shirtless on these hot days. My sunburn was bronzing into a tan by this time.
The only retreat from the heat was our lunch break, spent in the unfinished basement of one of the framed houses. The cement basement floor had not been poured yet and the dampness of the earthen floor filled our noses. We were sitting on blocks and pails. It was pleasantly cool out of the sun's harsh glare. Sunlight streaming through the windows provided all the light we needed.
I always enjoyed lunch break. The tradesmen and my fellow labourers often sat around talking about sports, music and movies. I listened a little nervously as my fellow labourers compared jail experiences or shared some of their wilder (and illegal) exploits. Sooner or later, you could count on sex to come up in these conversations. The jokes and anecdotes don't bear repeating in the days of the #metoo movement, but there was a lot of laughter in that basement for the weeks we used it as our lunchroom.
My own sex situation was a little sad. My heart had been stuck on the perfect girl since ninth grade; she was with someone else and I was holding out hope against all odds that we would get together some day. For that reason, I was still a virgin at nineteen and very conscious of my lack of sexual experience. I was thinking of her when one of the tradesmen steered the lunch conversation in a firmly sexual direction.
Ray was one of the bricklayers, a black man with the most overdeveloped arm muscles I ever saw. His chest really was like a barrel. He was probably about thirty-five. He put a question out there for the whole room.
"What was the sexiest thing that happened to you in your whole life?"
Two of my fellow labourers, Randy and Amos, declared that the first blow job they ever received was the high watermark of their sex lives so far. Tony, one of the painters, said he had a girl who let him enjoy all three holes. Stuart, a carpenter, claimed to have had a threesome with his wife and her best friend.
Having no experience to draw upon, but not wanting to admit it, I echoed my fellow labourers and claimed my first blowjob was the highlight of my sexual history.
"Were you giving or receiving that blowjob?" Ray asked me, to the great amusement of the other men.
"He's blushing," said William, another of my fellow labourers.
It was true. I had flushed crimson in embarrassment at having been singled out for that remark when I had only repeated what others had said. But Ray and the others might have construed my reddening face as a sign that I was guilty of the shameful deed.
"I think we know the answer," Ray said.
My colour only deepened. My ears burned. I was frozen in shame, unable to deny my lack of blowjob experience—either giving or receiving.
"I had a bitch in prison up north," William said. "He was the best cocksucker I ever had."
Ray and a few of the others nodded with understanding and I started to realize that more than one or two of my construction friends had been to prison. All of the men eyed me with a predatory look.
"Well, Sunshine," Ray said. "Looks like you've piqued some interest."
Considering that Ray started the sexual discussion, I could have argued that he was the one who fired the men up. It felt like Ray had manoeuvred me into this situation with cleverness and ease. I couldn't help but admire him. It was much later that I realized what happened next was all to his plan.
"Now you need to bring the real men some relief." Ray grinned at me.
I looked around timidly at the six shirtless men. Three of them wore wedding bands, but I was pretty sure that wasn't going to stop them. I was surrounded by muscular men who could easily tear me to ribbons if I defied them. They were staring me down and I wavered. I swallowed hard and nodded my reluctant agreement to be used for their pleasure. I knew that even my surrender would have unforeseen consequences.
I felt an anticipatory twitch in my cock, and I wondered how I might suddenly be so aroused. I should be terrified—well, I was terrified, but I was also finding myself incredibly curious about what I was expected to do. My nipples hardened. My dick filled with blood and began to rise to attention, pushing out the front of my jeans.
Realizing what was expected of me, I slid my ass off the rough concrete block I had been sitting on and knelt on the floor. The dirt floor stained the knees of my jeans.
"Well, looky here," said Amos, coming close enough to twist one of my nipples. "He's into it."
"Good for him," said Ray, who didn't care about anything but getting blown. Randy and Amos stood behind me on either side, probably to make sure I didn't do a runner.
As the natural leader of the group, Ray was up first. He stepped in front of me, unbuckled his belt and opened his pants, exposing the bulge in his underwear. A moment later, he had rolled his briefs down to reveal his thick, black cock. Over fifteen seconds, I watched as his engorged penis expanded toward me. It rose with a slight curvature, reaching its full size of about eight inches. I had never seen a cock that big in the gym locker rooms or showers.
"Are you waiting for it to sing, man?" Ray's voice was impatient. I had been staring in admiration at his dick. I looked around the shadowy basement at the other men, all watchful, all waiting their turn and none too patiently.
I was afraid. Doing this was as frightening as what would happen to me if I did not. I forced myself to lean in toward his curved cock. I took the bulbous head of the cock into my mouth.
Ray cursed. "Watch it with the teeth, motherfucker."
So, it came to pass that I was instructed in my first blowjob technique: always use your lips to hide your teeth from cock.
I went down on him again and this time there was no complaint. His organ was a paradox, both hard and spongy-soft. He was sweaty and musky from the morning's hard labour, but the odour and the taste of him were not at all unpleasant. I knew there was no chance I could get that whole enormous cock in my mouth and I didn't even have the concept of deep-throating, much less the skill for it. I sucked on his knob, licking it in circles over the sensitive area.
"Those are some good moves, faggot," Ray said.
I said that I wasn't a faggot, but my voice was muffled by a mouthful of cock.
The minutes ticked by and my mouth managed to absorb about half his prick. I licked and sucked his flesh as I began to bob my head back and forth. I used my right hand to jack the length of Ray's cock that I couldn't take in my mouth. The suction I applied must have increased the stimulation for Ray, because he began to moan, softly at first, then louder and with urgency. The other men cheered Ray on.
"Bust a nut on him, Ray."
"Come in his mouth!"
"Face-fuck the little runt!"
Ray took that last bit of advice to heart. Up until then, his hands had been at his sides. Now he interlaced his fingers in a grip around the back of my head. With his titanic strength, he easily held my head in place as he began flexing his hips and driving his cock in and out of my mouth. He fucked my face faster than I could keep up with and his pecker was almost in my throat. I couldn't breathe properly and I choked and gagged. Hot tears burned my face. I felt spittle and pre-cum pouring out the sides of my mouth and landing on my chest.
Ray suddenly shuddered and let out groan. I tasted a bitter, salty solution in my mouth.
I had given my first blowjob and it was a success. Ray didn't care if it was my first or not. He had what he wanted. He wiped his wet dick in my hair and across my face. He smiled down at me triumphantly as he tucked his cock back into his pants.
"Done in five minutes," Ray said. "You made me come faster than I usually do, slut."
