Spending The Weekend Together
Scott's P O V :
It's already been a month since I was chatting with Max. We had been on three dates, we first went on a coffee date followed by a movie date and then a shopping date. The past month was amazing. I finally had a feeling that I found myself a trustworthy partner. The last time I had sex was about four months ago and I was getting desperate for some action. I had just finished my graduation so I had nothing to do as if right now. I wanted to take a gap and my patents agreed. As usual I was alone on the weekends since both mom and dad were out for some work. Both Max and I had been constantly flirting with each other, sharing our dirty little deeds, sexting and doing a little more than that. I was thinking of inviting him over for the weekend but hesitated. At about eleven in the morning, I thought why the hell not and texted him to come over if he wants to for the weekend.
After about half an hour later Max replied that he would be here. I immediately started cleaning the rooms, did my laundries and made sure everything was neat and clean. I went to the store nearby and bought some snacks and some groceries. After everything was done, I took out a cool soda bottle from the fridge and chugged it in. I had my lunch and then spent the afternoon playing mobile games. It was already seven in the evening and I was waiting for Max to show up. Around half an hour later our bell rang and I immediately went to open the door. I opened the door and saw Max was standing in front of me with a basket full of chips and snacks.
" Hii ", I said smilingly.
" Hey ", he whispered.
" Come on in ", I said welcoming him to our house.
" Thanks, I brought some snacks ", he said. I took the basket from him and placed it on the counter. Both of us sat on the couch in front of the TV.
" Want to watch something ? " I asked him.
" Yeah sure but something horror or thriller ", he said. After searching for a few mintues both of us settled for a movie and watched it. I couldn't focus on movie with Max being close to me and I guess he couldn't either. Halfway through the movie he was the one to turn off the TV.
" Thank God ", I muttered and he laughed.
" Let's do something fun ", he said turning over to me.
" What kind of fun ? ", I asked him.
" Not the kind you are thinking in your dirty head Scott ", he said laughing and I glared him.
" I don't have a dirty mind, you have a dirty mind ", I said glaring at him and he stopped his laughing.
" That's right, I do have a dirty mind but right now I have something I wanted to know. I have been meaning to ask you this for quite sometime but wasn't sure whether I should or shouldn't ", Max said.
" That's okay. Go ahead and ask ", I said.
" Tell me about your sexual encounters and partners ", he said more like whispered. I got it now why he was feeling so uncomfortable asking this, to be honest the same thing was bugging me also. Even though we both had been talking and chatting but sex is an entirely different topic to talk about. I thought for a while and decided what to do.
" You know I will tell you about mine but only on one condition, you also have to tell me about your sexual encounters ", I said to him and he nodded his head.
" Deal ", Max said.
" Here goes nothing " I said to myself and took a deep breath.
" I have had sex only three times. It was average, not very good. I kind of expected that having sex with someone will bring me utmost pleasure but that didn't happen. May be that's because all of them were strangers and I just knew them for like two or three days. After my last sexual encounter I decided to quit. I thought I should find someone to connect first. It felt weird to be naked in front of a stranger. So I decided to stop all this. I took a break from grindr and focused on myself. I reinstalled grindr two months ago and found you after a month ", I said looking at him, every word loud and clear.
I watched as he blinked his eyes a few times. Without saying anything he just dragged me closer to him and hugged me from sides.
" Now it's your turn ", I said to him.
" Well, I was always the hopeless romantic one. When I was in college, I found a really cute guy and we both instantly hit it off. We became friends, then best friends and finally he confessed to me one day that he has romantic feelings for me. I was over the moon with joy and he was ecstatic when I confessed the same thing to him. We both became boyfriends but behind the close doors. Our relationship was great, everything was going nice and smooth until one day I saw him in a parking lot, his tongue shoved inside another guy's mouth. I felt so enraged, betrayed and humiliated that I stormed off. We got into a big argument and then broke off. After that I kind of lost my faith in love and started sleeping around. I spent most of my time screwing guys and sometimes even girls. Then one day I looked myself at mirror and the realization hit me when I couldn't identify my own reflection. Like a typical broken hearted boy, I hit the gym next day and started paying attention to myself. Soon everything fell into places and then I decided may be I was ready to take the next step. I installed Grindr, and scrolled through many profiles but none of them seemed very appealing to me until I saw your profile. There was something in your profile that caught my eye and I texted you ", he said, caressing my arms.
We both stayed like that for a while before putting up an action-thriller movie in Netflix. We both had a lot of fun and ate the dinner together. Max helped me by washing the dishes. I was contemplating on where should we sleep but Max made me relieved when he said he would sleep in the guest room. We both prepared the room and stayed up late talking before he finally decided sleep and I went back to my room.
" Good night Scott ", I wished myself grinning before closing my eyes and trying to sleep.
