Chapter Seven
The bar was closed for about a week after. Melissa stayed at home with Troy. Rumors were buzzing around about what exactly happened. I stopped by a couple times to check in with food my grandma had sent.
Melissa was strong and seemed to take every day to look forward. She told me Ryan had quite a few years to sit and rot. Troy stayed close to her, promising that Ryan would never come back.
The restaurant finally opened again after the week. It was filled all day with people curious to catch any truth to the stories that were spreading about the Bellmans. Some suspected murder, others proclaimed Troy was a hero. Brett liked to talk about it the most with customers, trying to start stories around the restaurant.
It wasn’t until that Sunday that Troy stayed for the whole day. Liz and Brett were sent home early. The restaurant was running slow, and I was the last one to close for the night. I folded the silverware and vacuumed under the tables. Even the cooks were released from the kitchen before I was finished. I stood behind the bar, wiping down the counter, when I felt Troy behind me.
“I’ve missed you, Daniel,” he said quietly.
He gently pushed himself against my backside, so I could feel his large dick under his jeans on my ass. His large hands moved onto my junk, holding it in his hands.
“You know, we never finished from the other night,” he spoke softly in my ear. He pushed his hips harder into me. I felt myself becoming aroused at the force.
His hands fumbled for my belt buckle, and he pulled them down, exposing my ass and my hard shaft. He moved his hands under my shirt, rubbing my nipples until they became hard, and then pulled the rest of my clothes off so I was completely naked. Blood began to rush to my cock; I could feel myself growing. I flipped around to face him and pulled his shirt off, exposing a broad, chiseled chest slightly covered in dark hair. His hands quickly pulled off his jeans, dropping them at his feet, exposing his hard dick. The sight of him excited me even more, and I could feel myself getting heavy with arousal.
“You don’t know how long I’ve been waiting for this,” he murmured.
He moved forward so our chests were touching. His hard dick rubbed against mine, and it sent waves of ecstasy into my body. He kissed me then, sticking his tongue deep into my mouth. His taste was addicting to me, and I felt myself spinning at the sensations. His hands continued to rub my ass, so I did the same to him, feeling his muscles tighten at my touch. I almost came then. I was overwhelmed at the feeling of his body and touch, but I slowed down the movement, nervous I would cum too soon.
He stepped back, sensing I was close.
“You like that?” he asked. I nodded aggressively, pulling him back to me. He started to lick my chest, his wet tongue trailing down my body and onto my dick, where precum already started to ooze out. His warm lips wrapped around my shaft, and he began to twirl his tongue around my throbbing dick. The feeling of his mouth moving up and down made the room begin to spin. I let out a moan, tilting my head back. My body trembled. He started to lick me then, teasing me with pleasure, and then quickly, he stuck two fingers into my ass and started to suck harder, at a fast and steady rhythm. The sensation took hold, and I let out a gasp.
“I’m gonna−”
I couldn’t finish the words. I came hard into his mouth, my body shaking completely. I almost fell over, but his weight caught me.
“You okay?” he asked, holding me up.
“Yes,” I quietly said, looking into his eyes. He kissed me then, those sweet warm lips against mine.
“Good,” was his response. “Now you know what I like.” He gently pushed my head down, and I put my mouth around his cock. I started licking his hard dick from the base to the tip, spinning my tongue around the head. I was surprised by how well I liked the taste of his dick. He gasped softly, rocking his hips back and forth, fucking my mouth.
“That’s good, Daniel.”
I cupped his heavy balls in my hand and started to play with them. I could feel myself growing aroused again. His hand grabbed the back of my head and pushed my mouth deep around his cock. He moved it back and forth until I could feel his cock become tense and start to pulse. His warm, salty load entered my mouth, and I swallowed, keeping my mouth around his dick until his legs stopped shaking.
Our eyes met, and he smiled; he knelt down beside me, and we lay on the cold wood floor. It felt good against our hot, sweaty, naked bodies. We lay next to each other. The feelings of ecstasy and passion hovered in the air around us.
Troy’s hands moved across my chest, and he started to rub it.
“I really like you, Daniel. I did the moment you walked through that door.”
He smiled at me, reaching his hand to put his palm on my cheek.
“I hope this doesn’t scare you or confuse you.” There was a look of genuine concern in his eyes. I didn’t know what to say to him. I reached my hand over and grabbed his, holding it gently.
“I think I like you too.”
He stared at the ceiling for a moment.
“I know it might seem strange−”
“No, it doesn’t, Troy. It’s the only thing that is starting to feel right in my life at the moment.”
I leaned over and kissed him. I lay my head on his chest, closed my eyes, and listened to him take in slow breaths. There wasn’t confusion—there had only been denial. I wanted to be with Troy. I wanted to kiss him, feel him, and spend time with him. He was a man that I wanted to know completely.
We lay there for another hour, lazily talking about nothing, but sharing everything.
The next day, Troy and Melissa came over for lunch with Grandma and Susie. We sat on the patio watching the waves. Troy’s hand grazed mine and squeezed it. He didn’t have to say anything. I knew he was there, close, completely accepting of me. My broken heart was for him to pick up and fix, and I accepted that he was supposed to be mine.
We decided to run the bar together until enough money was saved and we could move down to Chicago. Our life together was just beginning. There were moments I was scared, but with Troy, all the hesitation went away. We had each other. We found one another, and we were safe together.
