I remember when he added me on Snapchat. He lived in another city a few hours away, and we initially bonded because both our parents are divorced. I lived with my mum and him with his dad. For a while we just chatted about games, family, that kind of thing, but gradually he started getting a little more flirty. He'd ask about guys I liked, whether I was dating anybody, what kind of sexual experience I had. I had none, so that was a pretty short chat!
It wasn't long before the chats started getting steamy. He'd tell me about how he'd like to pin me to the bed and fuck me til I couldn't walk, or pull my hair and slam his cock deep down my throat. I was never very good at dirty talk so I let him lead the conversation, but it always turned me on and I'd reply telling him how wet he was making me. We even shared a couple of nudes, although I was always careful never to include my face if I showed anything - I knew a girl who hadn't taken such care, and her pics were shared all over school. He didn't even live in the same city as me, but it wasn't worth the risk.
We'd been chatting for a couple of months when my mum asked me to come down for a chat. She told me she'd been seeing a guy, and it was serious enough that they were thinking of moving in together. I already knew about Andrew - she'd talked about him a lot to her friends, but she was always careful to keep her boyfriends away from home until the relationship was serious. Apparently this one was, although it seemed to be moving awfully quickly. I mentioned this to her, and she told me that she'd actually been seeing him for almost a year. This would normally still be too soon for her to move in with a guy, but there was a lot of talk about the government locking the country down because of Covid, and they didn't want to find themselves unable to see each other for however long that would be.
So plans were made. Andrew came over a few nights later so I could give my approval. He was 46, tall and athletic. I could see why she was attracted to him - he had a kind of a Colin Farrel vibe about him, but his hair had a touch of grey which actually suited him better than a fully dark head of hair would. The three of us chatted for most of the evening, and when he left, mum asked what I thought of him.
"He seems OK" I said, deliberately noncommitally. I did approve, but you can't really just outright say that. We agreed that he could move in, and then she dropped the bomb on me.
"Oh...we'll need to redecorate the spare room before he comes." Wait, what? It's fine mum, I don't have a problem with him sharing your bed. "No, his son visits at weekends, but he's a couple of hours away so he'll need to stay the night when he's over."
That was kind of a bummer. We'd discussed his son in kind of loose "you guys would get on" terms, but I wasn't expecting to be sharing a house with the guy. Still, I guess it wouldn't be so bad - I spent most of my time in my room anyway so it wouldn't really bother me as long as he wasn't a complete asshole.
Andrew moved in a week later, and spent the first few days decorating the spare room. I helped when I was directly asked, but otherwise I stayed out of the way as a subtle expression of my disapproval for his son being shoehorned into the household. I just stayed in my room and chatted with my friends on Snapchat. Stormrider_02 told me his dad was moving in with some new woman, so we bonded over that mixed with the occasional sexting and filthy chat.
You can probably see where this is going. It was Saturday afternoon when he arrived. "Amy, come on downstairs" yelled my mum. I came downstairs and found myself face to face with Stormrider_02. "This is Josh" my mum said. FUCK. I hadn't even asked his name on snap - deliberately, as it happens. This guy was supposed to be fantasy - he shouldn't be real. He certainly shouldn't be in my fucking house! We'd discussed maybe meeting up one day, but I didn't mean it. I had no intention of meeting some random guy who I'd sent nudes to. His job was to be real life porn and nothing more.
Our parents clearly picked up on the awkward look we shared, and the WAY overly polite introductions. I think they thought we were attracted to each other. And I mean, they weren't wrong - he looked even better in real life than in his pics, but that's not the point. The actual reason we were so awkward is because we already knew so much about each other, and suddenly found ourselves face to face. I made my excuses as quickly as I politely could, and I went and hid in my room for the rest of the day, coming down only for an equally awkward dinner. Thankfully, our parents had decided to go for a pizza and movie night as a celebration, so at least we weren't at the dinner table and didn't actually have to talk too much.
