Randy was about fit to be tied. He had begun to think his parcel would not arrive that day, even if this was the online retailer's projected arrival date. He had just started to worry that the product was lost in the mail when his phone pinged with an email stating that his package was successfully delivered. Randy couldn't understand it; the parcel was at neither the front door nor the back door. He began to fret in earnest, emailing the retailer to advise what had happened. They said to give it twenty-four hours to show up, then call back and they would investigate. Apparently, in most missing delivery cases, packages were forwarded by the person who received it in error.
As Randy ended the call, he heard a rap at the door a few moments later. He thought this was surely it. Would it be a delivery man or an honest neighbour?
Randy answered the door to face a man in plain clothes instead of a courier's uniform. He was a little under six feet tall, built light and probably in his mid to late fifties; he was dressed casually like someone with nothing important to do: sandals, jeans and a golf shirt. He was, however, holding a package with the logos of the major online retailer from whom Randy expected the parcel today.
"Hi," the stranger said. "I'm Remy St. Denis. I live one street over at 231 Adam Avenue. Are you Randy S. Davis?"
Randy confirmed his identity warily.
"Your package was delivered to my house in error."
Randy could see how the courier might make that mistake, since the name and his address were very similar to the other man: 231 Allan Avenue. So, it had been lost in transit, after all, but thankfully, here it was all the same.
"Now, I'm sorry," Remy said, still holding on to the box. "But I was expecting a delivery myself, and at a glance over the label, I thought it was my name and address. Call it dyslexia or a senior moment, one or the other. You can see for yourself how similar our names and addresses look in this small print; easy to do, I'm sure you'll agree. So, the long and short of it is, I opened your package by mistake."
Randy flushed red as his thoughts turned to the object he had ordered. He had badly wanted to keep it a secret and now a complete stranger knew all about it. That was better than his wife or kids knowing, but far from ideal.
"I... see," Randy sighed, holding his hands out to accept the box. Remy still held it tight.
"Is this something you want to discuss on your doorstep?"
Hell, no, it wasn't. Randy didn't even think, but invited the stranger into his home.
"Nice place you have here, Randy."
"Yeah, thanks." Stress strained Randy's voice.
"Getting to the point, the device in this box is of a very special, personal nature."
Fuck, but didn't he know that already? Some people couldn't come straight to the subject at hand; there always had to been an introduction, a foreword and a prologue. There was nothing for it but to wait and let the man come around to his point.
"In these parts, not too many people are sympathetic to homosexuals and this is pretty gay."
That simply wasn't true. Lots of straight men liked to massage their prostates for sexual pleasure; some even submitted to women pegging their asses to experience those sensations. Ordering a vibrating massage device for his asshole was just a way of switching up his masturbation repertoire. His wife had lost her sex drive with the onset of menopause and she had such a vanilla taste in sex; she would never put so much as a single finger up his anus, even if she knew how much pleasure it might give him.
"It doesn't matter if it's true that you're gay," Remy said in pleasant tones. It was as if he had read Randy's mind. "It's the perception that counts."
So, what was happening here? Was he being threatened with blackmail? Was Remy going to tell his wife or his neighbours that Randy liked to get off by shoving vibrators up his ass? Embarrassing, yes, but irreparable? No. At least Randy didn't think it could cost him any permanent standing in his marriage or community. He didn't have any hidden dick pics or anything else that might brand him as gay or incriminate him as an unfaithful husband, and he wasn't planning to run for political office.
"What is it you want?"
"Want? Well, I want what you want. You have a toy and I want to play with you."
Randy hadn't expected that.
"What do you mean?"
"I want to get you off with this."
That stunned Randy. It was the possibility for which he was least prepared. He blushed even more furiously than before. His world tilted a little.
He weighed Remy up, adding to his earlier observation. He generally looked fit, but his midsection had turned soft. He had big hands and feet. He was dressed in the relaxed mode of a retiree with a light jacket over his shirt and a belt holding up his loose-fitting denim trousers. He wore a flat cap over sandy brown hair frosted with streaks of grey. His face was handsome enough; he looked a little like a middle-aged Michael Caine. Was he dangerous? Randy was not sure that he could outfight this man; he was out of shape since he'd been laid off.
Remy plucked the toy out of the box. It was removed from all of its plastic packaging.
The device itself was black and dominated by a penile shape of silicone which seemed to grow out of a solid base.
"Don't worry," Remy said. "I didn't use it. I only charged it up for you."
Remy pulled out of his pocket a very small remote control, a little bigger than a silver dollar. He pressed a button on the remote and the device vibrated, emitting a low, barely-discernible buzz.
"So, you want to..."
"Yes, I want to put this inside you. Why the trepidation? Surely, you planned to do as much for yourself. It can be awkward, you know; I'm just making it a little easier for you."
Randy watched his unwanted guest warily. He had no intention of taking the stranger up on his offer.
"Look, thanks for bringing my parcel over, but nothing else is going to happen here."
"Are you thinking of your wife?"
"How do you know my wife?"
"Until you answered, I didn't know for sure you had a wife. You're reluctant to cheat on her even if it's your greatest desire."
"Cheating on my wife is not a desire at all. This is a sex toy, not another woman."
"And yet, this package suggests all might not be well in the bedroom. You want more."
Fuck, how did this guy know all this? His perception was uncanny.
"Everything's just fine, thank you."
Remy smiled at Randy.
"I was just like you once. I was in denial that I needed more than my wife could give me. When she died, God bless her, I promised myself I would never deny myself fulfillment. You shouldn't deny yourself either."
Randy paused and reflected. He could all too easily identify with what Remy said.
"Look, we're both guys," said Remy. "We know we can be pleasured in ways that many women won't even attempt. We both have the same equipment. We understand each other. You knew exactly what you wanted when you ordered this little item."
Presently, Randy was regretting having ordered the prostate massager. He knew he shouldn't have expected maximum discretion by postal delivery, but he didn't want to be seen at a local sex novelty store buying a toy like this.
