A homeless hobo is snatched off the street...
but is everything the way it seems?
It gets crazy-weird from this point on.
The concrete is hard and cold. A relentless numbing chill that oozes up sucking the warmth from my shapeless huddle of Oxfam overcoats and tented last week's 'Observer' wrap-arounds. Sleep comes in bursts of icy dream and neon nightmare. And this must be a hang-over from one or the other.
The big Mercedes is throbbing there, rear passenger door yawning open so its light cuts down at me. At first I'm blurry, rubbing sleep and confusion from my eyes, then I lurch up awkwardly, my back braced against the wall, a sour taste in my mouth.
'Hey, c'mere.' An inviting voice from the car interior.
'Who? Me? Whaddya want with me? Leave me alone. I got nothing you want.' I can't see beyond the light, and don't trust my legs to hold me. But I move a few uncertain paces from my lair beneath the fly-over arch across the sidewalk towards the car. Resting up against its cool solidity.
The guy in the back says 'get in. It's your birthday.' Beyond him there's a sin-chaser blonde in black stockings, wearing a sassy smile, and not much else. I swallow hard. The grin comes more natural now. My mind-fuzziness clearing by degrees.
'What is this?'
'This, my friend, is philanthropy. We are having a party, my associate and I. We have food to make you drool, we have wine that cost a month's salary, and we have girls. But you know, I'm a man of social conscience. I'm not lacking in altruism. I think a little redistribution of the good things in life is no bad thing. So I'd very much like you to join us.'
'Hey look, I'm no Hobo, you can't condescend to me. I'm...'
'Yes. I know all that. You're just temporarily down on your luck. Could happen to anyone. Please don't feel insulted. Just do me a favour, and be our guest. Please.'
I shrug. What else can a poor boy do? I feel guilty. But not THAT guilty. He steps out of the car so I can get in behind the Driver, next to the girl undressed to kill. Centrefolds be damned. She's sex on tap. My host gets back in beside me, shunting me up contact-close to the girl. The door slams shut. As the light extinguishes I get the feeling I know the man beside me, as the car moves off and hisses into the swirl of traffic.
She reaches out with some kind of leather hood, I can smell her body-scent as she moves, but I grab her hand to stop whatever it is she intends doing. 'Sorry, my friend' says the man soothingly. 'I'm sure you understand. This is just a little precaution I must insist on.' She smiles beguilingly. 'It's worth the wait.'
My resistance melts. I allow her to strap the bizarre bondage hood over my head, a zip across the mouth-slit. There are shackles attached. Again I hesitate in a sudden panic as she manipulates me. These weirdo's could be Terrorists. Psychos. Serial Killers. But no – I recognise him from TV. I'm sure of that now. A Game Show host? I relax and let her fix my wrists to the attachments on the hood. What have I to fear, but fear itself?
All I'm aware of now is the low purr of the Mercedes, the hiss of the city beyond. It's warm inside. Suffocating warm. I try to chart the direction we take, the driver hangs a sharp left, straightens up, how far now? Then there's a sudden distraction from the area of my fly, which destroys any attempt to think of anything else. Intimate fingers are unzipping me, crawling down the length of my crotch. Urgent insistent fingers that insinuate within the open zip.
I stiffen in both senses, my breath trapped in my throat so it can't escape. I come quivering up out of my pants, nakedly semi-erect. I can't see, but I guess they can. I'm beyond caring. Cool sensitive fingers ease a spidery trail up and down my cock's growing length, tracing my nervous excitement from sensitive tip to fat testicles.
Then – incredibly, there are lips sliding over its blunt fat arrowhead, impossibly moist, more succulent than I could dream possible. A tongue flickering as delicate as butterfly's wings up and down the shaft. The faint snag of teeth working their way down into my groin. And I groan as the sucking begins in a rage of erotic power.
