The family cabin in Colorado was destination. For years, our family took a Winter Break Ski Trip. But this year Mom and Dad weren't up to it and our sister has a "Jan Plan" semester at her college. Only my older brother, Andy, and I were in the car, headed for the remote ski cabin in the mountains of Vail. Andy was almost 24 and working in Denver as an engineer. I was in my senior year of college. We had always been close, there being only 15 months separating us...we were almost like twins. We could finish each other's sentences and always knew was the other was thinking. We used to say that if either of us was ever going to get married, we would have to find a female version of our brother.
As we drove through the Rockies, the weather deteriorated. Snow was falling heavily and the roads were becoming dangerous. We finally got to our cabin, exhausted and a bit terrified from our drive through the icy, snow-covered mountain roads. By this point, the snow and wind were howling. Opening the door to our family cabin, we realized that the pilot light had gone out in the furnace. Even worse, the electricity was out. It was as cold inside the cabin as it was outside! Andy and I brought in our bag and stomped our feet trying to get warm. We were both exhausted and drained...and freezing.
"Look" Andy said. "It's pointless to try and fix this in the darkness. Let's just get some sleep and stay warm under the blankets and when the sun is up we can re-light the pilot light and fix the breakers".
I agreed and we headed into our freezing cold bedrooms. Former Boy Scouts with lots of experience camping in the cold weather, we knew we had to strip out of our clothes and let our body warmth fill the space between our bodies and the blankets.
After a few minutes, there was a soft knock on my door and Andy asked if he could come in. "Jim", he said quietly. "I'm freezing...can we share the bed at least until we warm up"? I shivered and nodded for him to join me. My brother slid under blankets and the two of us laid in the darkness, our teeth chattering.
I whispered: "Andy...I love you. If I'm going to freeze, I'm glad I'm freezing with you".
We pulled the covers over ourselves and held each other, trying to get warm. We rubbed each other's backs vigorously, creating some warmth. As the seconds ticked by, I felt something warm and soft on my neck. My eyes were closed....but there was no mistaking it. Andy was kissing my neck. My brother was softly kissing my neck. My mind screeched to a halt...but my body and emotions said otherwise...
His lips continued kissing my neck with soft, tender kisses. I whispered in the dark: "Andy...what are you doing".
He said nothing...but kept kissing my neck...his lips rising up a bit. My heart was racing....I lowered my face a bit...and our lips touched. It was just a brief touch...not even really a "kiss". But it was a magical, electric moment. My conscience thought kicked in...and I whispered: "Andy...we're brothers for God's sake. And...I'm not gay"!
He looked into my eyes and quietly replied: "Jim, I'm not gay either. But I feel so alive right now. Whatever happens to us...I want to have this moment of love with my brother".
I leaned in and this time, when our lips touched...it WAS a kiss. A passionate kiss. Our lips melted together as our hands held one another in each other's arms. This kiss lasted for long moments....it changed our lives forever. I felt my brother's lips part and his tongue brush against my own lips. Again, that "thinking" part of my braid screamed at me to stop. My body, my lips my entire being was on fire. I opened my lips and took his tongue into my mouth. My brother and I began a French kiss that rocked us to the core. We kissed and kissed...made out like teenagers on a first date.
It was inevitable...we are men after all. I felt something stiffen and press up against my body. I new Andy was getting an erection! The kiss was turning him on. I knew this...because my body was having the same reaction. I could not believe that my own cock was stiffening...harder than it had ever been before.
