PATIENCE by Boag

PART 1

Richey strode nervously down the street looking out for James’ house as he walked. He caught a glimpse of his face in a window and resolved to look less anxious and more blasé but he couldn’t help worrying as James had made it quite clear that he didn’t much care for Richey’s company and barely tolerated him at the best of times. He didn’t really know why but suspected it had something to do with how close he had become to James’ best mate Nicky. It was Nicky’s fault he was on James’ side of town anyway, Nicky had leant him an LP which turned out to be James’ and now Richey had to take it back even though he never would have borrowed it in the first place had he known. To make things worse he hadn’t had any breakfast, not even a hot drink, and he was feeling a bit dizzy, not a fit state to deal with James in.
James’ house came into view and Richey headed for it cursing that the LP wouldn’t fit through the letterbox. He knocked and heard heavy footsteps charging down the stairs, a shadow appeared behind the glass panel and the door was unbolted. James stared curiously out at him before scowling.

“Oh…hello…what are you doing here then?” James said accusingly
“Erm…well…Nicky leant me a record and it turned out to be yours so I’m just popping it back to you”
“Oh ok” James scowl eased slightly
“Sorry…I didn’t know it was yours! I saw it on his bedroom floor and asked if I could borrow it, I assumed it was his, and then he announced it belonged to you after I’d taken it, I’ve taken good care of it though”
James began chuckling, he could see Richey had really worked himself up about having to come to see him and he enjoyed having this effect on the otherwise confident boy.
“Don’t worry about it mate, Nicky is famous for doing that, daft bastard”
“He is?”

Richey’s voice had gone weak and pathetic, he had tried to keep the panic down but it had burst out of him uncontrollably and now the lack of food and drink was getting to him. He leaned up against the wall and held his head unaware of James’s eyes on him.
“You ok?”
Richey snapped out of it when he realised James had noticed, he blushed and felt embarrassed.
“Oh me yeah I’m fine just didn’t have anything before I came out this morning that’s all, I’ll be heading back then, get myself something to eat and drink”
Suddenly James felt ashamed of himself for having felt so pleased at upsetting Richey’s composure, after all he didn’t really have anything against Richey, he didn’t know enough about him to do so except that Richey was a contender for Nicky’s affections and James hated sharing. He decided to make himself feel less guilty by inviting Richey in for a drink and something to eat.
“Listen why don’t you come in and have something with me, I was about to make some tea and I haven’t had any breccy yet either”

Richey was startled at James’ sudden personality change and was instantly suspicious but he felt so rough that he could hardly refuse, he didn’t stand a chance of getting home and he didn’t have any money to buy anything with.
He smiled warmly and said “yeah ok, thanks, that’s really kind of you”
James looked straight into the boys face and thought how much it changed when he smiled, he went from being unapproachable and cold to friendly and beautiful. He stepped side and showed Richey in taking his shoes and coat and leading him into the kitchen where he got him to sit at the table whilst he started on breakfast.
“Tea or coffee?”
“Tea I think please”
“How’d you take it?”
“Milky with one sugar please”
“I like it milky too”

James had no idea why that had come out of his mouth, what a bizarre thing to say, he felt very unsettled that the tables had turned and Richey was now fazing him without having actually done anything!
“Your mum and dad at work?”
“Yeah, they’re out all day and then I work at night so they’re asleep by time I get in, I don’t get to see them much anymore”
James had gone quite solemn.
“Close to them are you?”
“Yeah, we’re quite a tight knit family, I get on with mum, dad and Sean just like they were friends…you’re close to your sister aren’t you?”
“Now we’re older she’s a friend…before we used to torture each other!”
James laughed and Richey giggled.
“That’s the same with all siblings isn’t it”
“You and Sean fight a lot when you were little”
“He didn’t live here then, he’s my cousin not my brother, moved in when he was 12 but yeah we fought a lot and still do, drives ma up the wall, sometimes I think that’s why we do it”
“Sorry I didn’t realise Sean wasn’t your brother”
“It’s ok”

Richey waned to ask how it had came to be that Sean was living with his cousins family but he resisted, they barely knew each other and it wasn’t right to pry.
“Most people want to know why he lives with us”
“I didn’t think it polite to ask and Sean wouldn’t like to be discussed would he”
James was impressed at Richey’s sensitivity, he knew Sean and Richey got on quite well.
“Do you want toast or crumpets? I’m having crumpets”
“Crumpets are great”
“Butter and jam?”
“Yes please”

Richey wasn’t much of an eater but he didn’t want to refuse James’ hospitality.
“Who’s your sister going out with now?”
“Oh Christ I dunno his name!”
James laughed.
“Whoever he is I don’t like him, he’s a right swarmy git, gives me a bad feeling, you still seeing Sam yeah?”
“Uh-huh although we’ve only just got back together, had a biiiiiiig fight”
“Better now though?”
“Oh yeah, we flip hot and cold with each other anyway, her temper is as bad as mine, one of the reasons I like her!”
“You seeing anyone”
“Nah can’t be bothered, no-ones interested in me anyway”
“Louise is”
“Is she? Who told you? Did She?
“Sam did, actually everyone knows, except you obviously”
“I’m no good with girls…anyway I like her but not that way, she’s a good friend”
“She’s good looking though”
“Yeah course”
“So why no go out with her then?”
“Can’t be arsed with girls much, too much politics”

Jams laughed
“Yeah but a regular fucks nice”
He was testing Richey, he didn’t know what for but he just wanted to see what he would say.
“Well I’m no expert on that”
“You don’t have to be an expert to know it’s nice do ya?!”
“You need to have done it though and I haven’t, I’m a virgin”
There was silence for a minute or two but once the shock had passed Richey started to talk again.
“Shocked you didn’t I?!”
“Well yeah but more because most men wouldn’t admit it, we’re sad sods, we’ll pretend instead of just being honest”
Now it was Richey’s turn to be shocked, he hadn’t expected respect from James.

“So…errrr….why haven’t you done it”
“Haven’t found the right person”
“You don’t need to spend you’re entire life with her!”
“No but I do need to trust her and I need to know she likes me, I can’t just do it with a stranger”
“I see your point, I lost my virginity to Sam, it was a disaster of course but loving and trusting her made us confident enough to laugh it off and try again”
Richey was laughing playfully.
“So what happened to make it a disaster?”
“Oh well you know, things just don’t go to plan do they, you think it’s simple, looks easy enough in porn don’t it but it ain’t, bloody complicated in fact, we both thought that well you just stuck it in and away you go, turned out the getting it in part took a lot longer”

By this point they were both laughing hysterically.
“Got it working eventually though eh?!”
“Hell yeah, works just fine now, easy when you know how”
“Is it any good?”
James thought this was a strange question but went on and answered anyway.
“Yeah, usually it’s great, much nicer than your own hand, she’s all wet and warm and tight…it’s kinda messy though”
Again hysterics.

The morning turned into afternoon and they were still talking, discovering they had lots in common and where they didn’t agree a passionate love of arguments united them. Suddenly James looked at the clock and Richey figured it was time for him to go but instead James ushered him into the sitting room and sprawled on the sofa.
“Black and white movie time…love the matinee…don’t make films like these anymore”
“Don’t make women like that anymore either, worth watching just for that”
“Who’d you like then?”
“Marilyn Monroe, obviously, Elizabeth Taylor especially, and Marlene Dietrich”

James laughed and they both made themselves comfortable. James was disturbed to be noticing how attractive Richey was, he couldn’t believe he was still a virgin, not with that face or figure. He let his eyes wander over his new friend. Richey had sad and beautiful eyes, a small nose and red sore looking lips that melted into his pale but troubled skin. His shoulders were broad and chest shapely, he had a tiny waist, a nice little arse and a great bulge between his legs. Richey caught James looking at him and felt self conscious. When James realised he looked away, giving Richey a chance to survey him. He had messy dark hair, mischievous eyes, a strong nose and round red wet lips. His skin was beautifully clear and pale. He was a lot bigger than Richey, whilst Richey was small and shapely James was taught and muscular, his thighs were think and firm and his arse was big and round. The bulge between his thighs was large and conspicuous. This time James caught Richey’s eyes lingering then they caught each others and held the stare for a good few minutes.

“I can’t believe you’re a virgin”
“Why not?”
“Can’t see why a girl wouldn’t wanna fuck you”
A shy smile hastened across Richey’s face.
“I don’t see why one would when she could have you”
James smiled.
“What’s so good about me then?”

Richey blushed and James laughed. James’s fingertips started to touch Richey’s and they’re hands met and grasped. Then they lent towards each other and started to kiss. At first they were light and tender, barely brushing each others lips, but James curled his hand round the back of Richey’s head and held it firm so he could push his tongue into Richey’s mouth and taste his saliva. Richey was shocked at James’ forceful move but opened his mouth wider and let James explore him. They kissed deeply for a long time edging the rest of their bodies closer together until they were pressed against one another. Richey pulled away and took his t-shirt off so James followed. They touched each other moving their hands gently over each others’ torso, nipples and down to the abdomen. The continued kissing deeply whilst laying feather touches on one another.

“I wanna see your dick”
James demanded, so Richey stood up and removed his jeans and socks but left his boxes on although really they covered very little of his erect penis. James copied, Richey gasped, James was huge, he laughed because he knew it, the first time Sam had seen she almost fainted.
“I can see how you had such a problem getting it in now”
James grabbed hold of Richey’s boxes and removed them, then his own and pushed Richey back down onto the sofa. They were both totally naked and Richey felt very self conscious. James however was too wrapped up in stroking Richey’s cock to notice so Richey returned the favour and the kissing started up again but more frantic and rough. Loud and urgent moans were escaping their lips.
“This is so good” Richey whispered
“mmmmmm” James agreed
“Do you want me to suck you off?”
“Oh yeah”

James sat back opened his legs and put his hand on the back of Richey’s head holding his hair gently. Richey licked the shaft and sucked the head. He got his first taste of precum, it was salty and in a way almost unbearable to swallow, but the sensation that came with it was so intense he pushed the flavour to the back of his mind. James was enjoying this but he wanted Richey to take him properly, no stranger to blow jobs he knew what he wanted so he started to push Richey down on him whilst gently thrusting into his mouth. Richey didn’t think he take anymore of James’ dick without gagging but James kept pressing him down. Luckily James was so turned on that a few thrusts was all it took before cum was dripping down the back of Richey’s throat. James pulled out and Richey gasped for air.
“My turn” Richey spluttered.

James went down on Richey taking his whole length straight away. He was a lot smaller than James but still had plenty of length and a good thick shaft. James wrapped his lips round the head and flicked his tongue across before swallowing. It didn’t take long for Richey to cum too.
They both sat next to each other on the sofa sweaty and gurgling semen. Richey laughed and said
“I wasn’t expecting this to happen” before pouncing back on James for more kissing.
They sent the rest of the afternoon playing with each other, repeating blow jobs, giving hand jobs, licking, kissing and sucking each other everywhere they could think of until James had to leave for work. Woefully they had a shower and got dressed and dried their hair barely able to keep from touching each other in between. They left, going to the same bus stops but different buses. Non-one else was in the shelter so they talked.
“I don’t want this day to end Richey”
“Me either…will you call me tomorrow?”
“Yeah, gimmie your number”

Richey waited and waited but James never called. He gave James a ring but there was no answer. A terrible feeling was rising from the pit of his stomach engulfing him with nausea. He already knew what James was going to say but he rang again anyway letting the phone ring until finally somebody answered.
“Hello”
“James, you said you’d call me”
“Yeah I did…listen…about yesterday, it was a one off yeah, I don’t really wanna do that again, I’ve got a girlfriend afterall”
“Didn’t I make you cum harder then she ever has?”
“Richey!”
“Well didn’t I? And did you make me cum harder than I ever have before? Didn’t you enjoy yesterday? It seemed like you did at the time so why can’t we do it again?”
“I’m not gay!”
“So, you’re obviously bi, like me”
“I’m not, yesterday was just experimenting, just a bit of fun”
“So why can’t we have more fun?”
“I have to think of Sam, I love her and I don’t love you, I’m sorry Richey”
“I don’t understand what happened between last night when you said you never wanted the day to end and now!”

Richey was openly crying and James felt bad for being the cause but he wasn’t going to budge, he had decided that no matter how much he had enjoyed what occurred between them there was no way on earth he was going to be a faggot despite how he felt. Perhaps had he realised the pain and suffering his decision would cause both of them in the future he might have made a different one but he was too young to understand how the years ahead would be shaped by this day.
“Hey don’t cry, we can still be friends can’t we, I just don’t want anything more than that is all”
“How can we be friends when I want you!”
“Look calm down, go have a drink and I’ll call you later when you’ve settled down a bit”
“James no”
But James had already put the phone down.

Richey felt distraught, he was so confused, he couldn’t understand what had happened, he sat down on the floor and sobbed until his sister came in found and put him to bed when she realised there was no sense coming out of him at all.
James kept his promise and phoned again but only to reinforce what he had said earlier and to make sure Richey wasn’t planning on broadcasting what had happened between them. Richey promised not to but he also promised himself that this wasn’t over, James was not getting away with breaking his heart that easily.
“You just wait James Dean Bradfield, I will have you and I am a patient man.”
