A door was opened before me to reveal a large room with rows of bunks. These 44 other criminals would be my neighbors in close quarters. This would be my home for the next month, my punishment for ignoring unpaid traffic tickets. Rayo was my bunk mate, a slender, heavily muscled Puerto Rican encased in a kaleidoscope of tattoos from shoulder to knee; in for assault with a deadly weapon. Upon first impression, I assumed this wasn't his first time warming a prison bed. He was clearly hardened by a life of constantly peering over his shoulder, searching for the next onerous thug to try to take advantage of him or any of his close friends, some of whom were also in residence and will make cameo appearances in this tale.
The guards turned and walked off. Rayo sat in silence. I inhaled deeply and assumed to occupy the free bunk, but as soon as I began my ascent, Rayo clamped his right hand around my ankle and yanked me to the floor so I almost hit my head on the top bunk on the way back down. As he stood, I began to understand I was severely outmuscled by this man. He was 6'3", weighed at least 220 pounds, and was certainly taking full advantage of the weights in the yard, not that I knew anything about the yard. His slender, yet muscular, physique gave off the illusion of a man under 200 pounds, but his height pushed him well into that 220 range.
He spoke soon after he got to his feet. "That's my bed." I already heard a thick Hispanic dialect.
I was terrified. "But aren't you in the bottom bunk?"
"No! You the bottom bunk, fruit loop!!" He watched as I obeyed and sat on the lower bunk where his things were tacked to walls and leaning on bed posts. "Yeah. That's how I like my little fruit loop."
I attempted to understand what was happening by asking the obvious question, but in the dumbest of syntax. "Wait, so all that shit about dudes raping dudes in jail... Is that for real!?" I immediately wanted to strike that comment from the record, but it was out there and I put it out there, so now I had to deal with it.
His eyes saturated in fury, he lunged forward and placed his left hand on my neck and squeezed, then took his right hand and slapped my upper thigh. He was very strong. "I'm going to make sure what I'm doing to you right now never happens to you. In here, you need people, and you need them fast, but in order to get people, you have to have something they want." His eyes travelled slowly downward and I knew who he wanted me to become. What he didn't know was that this was not my first rodeo. It might have been my first visit to a jail cell, but I know what I can handle and, even at that young age, I could handle a lot. "For my protection, you will be made to pay a toll. Tonight, before lights out, you will be given the chance to shower. Take it. I will be waiting for you there." He never named the price. I just had to show up.
It was 6:30pm when the line formed for the showers. Prior to that, I spent my time using anything I could to spray water in me for clean up. I wasn't sure, but I didn't want to, literally, get the shit fucked out of me. So just in case....
Upon arrival, I saw Rayo in line immediately. There were 14 shower heads. Only four were occupied. I took my position at one of the heads and began soaping up. As it turned out, Rayo posted up at the shower head right near me. "Hey yo," he whispered, "drop your soap. That's the signal for the guards to stand outside."
I obeyed, letting the bar of soap slip from my fingers. As if orchestrated and executed several times prior, the guards saw the soap and exited, leaving me with whomever remained, all convicts.
Rayo started, "Hey, mira. You see?" His eyes moved down to where his cock was. His hands (and I say hands because one was not enough) stroked the length of his member, a veined and powerful looking thing. I shivered, but also shocked him when I blitzed toward his crotch like I had found the answer to the meaning of life after a decade long search, and it was miraculously taped to his balls. I sucked his shaft, giving my best to swallow as much of him as my mouth could hold. I rested his slumped, but ever-growing, erection on my shoulder while I buried my face between a thigh and his scrotum, both licking and inhaling through my nose.
The smell was that of a freshly bathed crotch. Top or bottom, you know the smell. I love this smell. Sure there's a clean scent, but there is also an unmistakable odor lingering in the background that can only be the smell of cock sweat. Not overwhelming, like a few others who had me gagging from an odor similar to Rayo's faint crotch odor, but multiplied exponentially due to several days unwashed. The thing about this smell, particularly for bottoms like me, is that regardless of its strength, it's the smell that motivates me, gagging or not. (I gave this topic its own paragraph because this smell was all I inhaled, with varying levels of strength. This singular smell was practically one of the lead characters in the story. But I can't just keep bringing it up because I hear that, when writing, this faux pas can lend itself to monotony. So just know that, strong or faint, the smell was there, urging me to perform my penance energetically for the reward of getting through this month without getting my ass kicked.)
