The Truth about Love Songs : Chapter 3

Lucas could feel Tyler breathing softly on his back as he laid still in the silent room. The sun was shining through the window, making everything glow. He had never been in Tyler’s room before yesterday “It’s far to tempting” Tyler would say, so they stuck with the couch down stairs. Tyler’s room was painted white, with a dark red colour covering one wall. Most of the walls were bare apart from the one closest to the door, which held a few photo’s of Tyler, his mum and a man, who Lucas assumed, was his dad before he passed away. He let his eyes drift over to the wall opposite the bed and saw a record collection that would impress any music connoisseur. They were all lined up perfectly on a shelf that covered the entire wall. Lucas even spotted that some even had the plastic still on them. Tyler spoke about music a lot. He was a huge Soul and Jazz fan and loved anything from ‘back in the day’, as he put it.

Lucas smiled to himself as he thought back to one occasion where he and Tyler was sitting in Tyler’s car, which he had parked on a little side road about 12:30 at night. They were curled up in the back seat together, looking at the stars in the clear night sky. Tyler was positioned in between Lucas’ legs while Lucas wrapped his arms around him. The radio was on some station when Tyler started complaining that they didn’t make music like they used to.
“How old are you?” Lucas joked
“You don’t have to be fifty to appreciate good music”
“This is good music” 
“To you maybe but not to me”
“Oh, and what do you consider ‘good music’ then?”
“Anything by Miles Davis, Duke Ellington, John Coltrane, Charlie Parker and Chet Baker. Not to mention Stevie Wonder, Nina Simone, Sly and The Family, The Temptations, Sam and Dave, Aretha Franklin, Jackson 5, Teddy Pendergrass, Curtis Mayfield… ”

“Ok, Ok I get it. You like the old stuff. That’s cool but it doesn’t mean that music today is no good”. I mean what makes them so special? 
Tyler spent the next forty minutes answering that question. He went on about why Marvin Gaye was one of the best artists that ever lived and why Al Green was an inspiration to him. He told Lucas that he wanted to introduce him to the world of Billy Holiday and Otis Reading. “I’m going to let you listen to their albums one day, then you’ll understand” He said ending his rant.
“How in the world did you get into music like that?” 

“My Uncle Raymond. He use to be in a jazz band. When he and my aunt used to come round, he use to bring some of his music with him so I could listen to it. He told me all about that kind of music. He even tried to teach me how to play the trumpet once, but it didn’t quite work out”.
“What, the great Tyler Henderson failing at something? Never”.
Lucas suddenly felt Tyler’s elbow go into his rib cage. “ Very funny. He’s really cool. In fact it was him that made me see that I was gay”
“How that now?”
“It was when he and my aunt was staying with us for a few months. There was a flood at their place and they were waiting for the insurance people to cough up the money. I accidentally walk in on him in the bathroom. He was just getting into the shower and he had forgotten to lock the door. He was a 6’5 huge hunk of a man with the biggest cock I’d ever seen. It was thick, and uncut…”
“How thick?”
“You’ve seen a picture of my Uncle Raymond, the big guy in all the pictures, standing next to the skinny lady. Well his dick was as fat as his wrist. I’ve showed you a picture of him before”
“Oh, I remember now, the good looking guy. Ok, go on”
“Anyway, he was just getting into the shower when I walked in. My mouth dropped open when I saw him. I couldn’t keep my eyes of his cock, even when he was shouting at me to leave. All I could think about was how great it looked and how much I wanted to play with it. In the end he had to push me out of the bathroom. When he had finished he came into my room and asked me if I had enjoyed looking his cock”
“What did you say?”
“Well at first I didn’t say anything. I just looked at him. Then he asked again and I manage to nod yes. He laughed and said, “your aunt owes me five bucks”, and then walked out. That was it. He never mentioned it again but whenever they came around he used to announce to the whole house that he was going into the bathroom and anyone who was thinking of entering should knock first and wait for a response before opening the door. He would even say it when he knew I was the only one in the house” 
Lucas burst out laughing. He hugged Tyler close to himself and kissed him on the cheek.

Thinking back to that night made Lucas feel warm inside. He loved talking to Tyler and hearing all about his life. He pushed back slightly and Tyler reacted by pulled Lucas closer to his body. He could feel Tyler’s nose now on his spine, which made him tingle all over. Lucas continued to let his eyes wonder over the huge collection of records “ It must be worth Thousands” he thought to himself. He looked over to his desk and saw his laptop and some papers spread out on the table. He also noticed a clock which said 2:30 PM. He let out a big sigh and thought about what his family might be doing. He wondered if they were worried about him, or if they even cared that he hadn’t come home that night. Everything was such a mess. 

As much as he wanted to stay in Tyler’s arms his was dying to go to the toilet. He tried to move Tyler’s arm from around his waist without waking him. He slid out of his embrace and off the bed. He watched Tyler stir a little and reach out. He came across the warm pillow Lucas’ head was lying on and pulled it close to him, he seemed content to use that a substitute for Lucas. Lucas didn’t move until he heard Tyler snoring softly again. He crept over to where he knew his clothes were and pulled on his jeans and vest. He crept back over to the door and turned the knob slowly, keeping his eye’s on Tyler and making sure he didn’t wake him. He left the room and made his way down the hall. He had checked two rooms before he came across the bathroom. He looked at himself in the mirror that was hanging over the sink first and then proceeded to use the toilet. When he got back to the room five minutes later, he saw Tyler spread out like a star- fish, with the sheet half on the floor and Tyler’s arse all exposed. Lucas couldn’t help but stare at Tyler. He smiled to himself. He couldn’t believe his life since he moved to America; meeting Tyler and now this shit with his family. Everything seemed to be happening all at once and he didn’t know how to slow things down. He continued to stare at Tyler for a few more minutes then walked over to Tyler’s record collection. He leaned in close and reached out to pull one of them of the shelves, when he heard Tyler’s sleepy voice from the bed. “Don’t even think about it”. 

Lucas nearly jumped out of his skin. He lowered his hand and turned around to look at Tyler. Tyler hadn’t moved, his eyes were still closed and he was still spread out like a starfish. He looked as peaceful as he did when Lucas went to the bathroom. “ You scared the shit out of me” Lucas said clutching his chest. He turned back to the collection and tried again to take a record out again.
“Don’t you dare” Tyler side now sitting up in bed
“I’m just looking”
“No one touches my collection”
“Not even me?”
“Not even you”

Lucas turned to face Tyler who was leaning on his hand. He was smiling. Lucas could see his face shimmering in the sun -light. His blue eyes looked so clear, almost transparent. Lucas couldn’t help but bite his bottom lip as Tyler lay in front of him. He’s hard chest exposed, his abs so perfectly formed and his pubes just visible as the sheet was just about covering his cock. The soft whisper of hair that lead from his navel to his pubes. Every part of Tyler was looking tempting. He smiled to himself as he remembered what it felt like to have Tyler make love to him. He clenched his butt cheeks together and he could feel his tender ring throbbing. “I’m only looking” he said pulling himself together.
“Well look but don’t touch”
“Why, do you think that I’ll damage them?” he said sarcastically

Tyler threw the sheet off himself and walked over to where Lucas was standing. Again Lucas bit his bottom lip at the site of Tyler’s naked body approaching him. He was ready to melt away. He couldn’t believe that he had the sexiest man alive as his boyfriend. His heart raced every time he was near. Tyler was now standing in front of Lucas. He grabbed hold of his wrist and pulled him to the bed. “Sit” he commanded playfully. Lucas did as Tyler requested. He watched him find his boxers and put them on, then walk back over to his record collection. He looked at Lucas and smiled. “We do not touch the records if we do not know how to handle them” He took a step back and let his fingers run over them softly. 
“You are joking right?” Lucas said with a raised eyebrow.
“These are not toys, these are by babies and as such should be treated with respect.”
Lucas shook his head softly and said with a soft laugh “You’re mad. So are you going to put something on for me or am I not worthy?”
“What do you want to hear?”
“Anything, you’re the expert” 
Tyler turned back to his record collection and began to flick threw them. He stopped at one smiled. 
Lucas laid back on the bed as he waited for the music to start. He instantly recognised the song as soon as it came on. He rose from the bed and looked at Tyler, who was now bobbing his head. “James Brown” he said. 
“Yeah. I thought we would start with something familiar” 

Lucas watched as Tyler danced around the room singing along to all the words. He didn’t know whether to laugh or cry as Tyler bounced about the place. He wasn’t a bad dancer, in fact Lucas was very impressed by his moves, it just wasn’t what Lucas would have expected. But he thought he looked very cute and smiled proudly at Tyler. 
Tyler danced around for the duration of the song before changing it over and putting on a new one. This was all a new experience for Lucas. Even though he was just watching Tyler he felt very close to him. Music was something Tyler was passionate about and Lucas was happy that he was sharing it with him. 
Tyler was always confident around other people; he had no reason not to be, but he always held back parts of himself. He never really wanted people to see this silly side of him. He was uncomfortable exposing certain aspects of his life but he really felt like he could let his guard down and be himself around Lucas. He loved how Lucas watched him, like he was really enjoying himself. Once the music had stopped, Lucas started clapping “Wow, who knew you were such a great dancer”

“I did” Tyler said taking a bow and giving Lucas a little cheeky wink. He turned, took the record off and walked over to his CD player. Lucas watched as Tyler put on a disk. He walked towards Lucas and stretched out his hand. “Dance with me” he said as he smiled softly.
“I don’t dance”
“Everyone dances”
“Except me”
Tyler reached down and grabbed Lucas by the arm; He pulled him close and wrapped his arms around his waist. Lucas laughed a little and began to sway with Tyler. He had never danced so close with anyone before. He put his arms around Tyler’s neck and their foreheads met. They moved in unison with each other as the music played. “Listen” Tyler whispered, pulling Lucas a little closer. As the music played Lucas could hear Tyler singing along softly in his ear. 

‘Living for you is easy living, it’s easy to live when you’re in love
and I’m so in love, there’s nothing in life but you.
I’ll never regret the things I’m giving, they’re easy to give when you’re in love
I’m happy to do whatever I do for you.
For you, maybe I’m a fool but it’s fun, people say you rule me with one wave 
of you’re hand, darling it’s grand, they just don’t understand.
Living for you is easy living, it’s easy to live when you’re in love 
and I’m so in love, there’s nothing in life but you.’

As the sun shone in the room, both Tyler and Lucas were illuminated in the warm light. Their bodies glistened as the music floated around the room. They looked liked they were floating as they swayed slowly.
Lucas felt weak in the knees as he let the words wash over him. He held on to Tyler as tight as he could. He opened his eyes and saw Tyler staring back at him. He wanted to cry, he was so overwhelmed with happiness and Tyler could see this. Tyler kissed both his eyes, nose and then his mouth, very softly, barely let his lips touch his skin. The music had looped to the beginning and they kept on moving. Lucas let his hands move slowly down Tyler’s chest and rest on his heart. He felt it beating faster and faster as he started kissing Tyler. Their tongues connected and it sent shivers down both their spines. Tyler let his hand run through Lucas’ hair as they kissed with more urgency. They began to move towards the bed. Tyler was now pulling off Lucas’ vest and jeans while Lucas was pulling down Tyler’s boxers and began rubbing on his cock. They reached the bed and Lucas collapsed on top of Tyler. He pulled away and stared into to his hypnotic eyes.
“What?” Tyler said.
“Thank you”
“For what?”
“Now, last night, yesterday, the pass few weeks. All of it” 
Tyler stretched his head up and kissed Lucas again, slipping his tongue into Lucas’ willing mouth. He let his hands roam over his chest and stop at his nipples. His fingers rubbed and pulled at them. Tyler rolled Lucas over so he was on top. He moved his mouth away from Lucas’ mouth and kissed and licked his neck. Lucas groaned softly as his dick began to leak pre-cum. He reached up and pulled Tyler closer to him. He let his other hand stray down Tyler’s hard chest and down to his cock where it was standing at full attention. He gripped hold of it and began to pull it up and down with ease. It was Tyler’s turn to moan, as he bit and sucked on Lucas’ neck. Tyler let his head move down further kissing Lucas’ now burning skin every step of the way. He reached the nipple he had been playing and clamped his hot mouth around it. “Mmmmm” Lucas moaned. He pulled a little faster on Tyler’s cock as Tyler’s tongue worked over time on his nipples. He could feel warm pre-cum seeping from his piss slit and he wanted to taste it. He wanted to feel Tyler hot cum in his mouth. Lucas lightly pushed Tyler’s mouth away from his hard nipple and rolled back on top of him. He released his cock and pinned both of Tyler’s hands behind his head. They looked into each other’s eyes and smiled. Both had lust pouring from every part of their bodies and they kissed again passionately. Both their members leaking pre-cum. Lucas released Tyler’s hands and slid down his body, stopping briefly at his nipples and then navel, to lick and suck at them. He found Tyler’s swollen cock and devoured it without a second thought. “Mmmm Shit” Tyler moaned tossing his head back. Lucas was like a man possessed. He was relentless on his tool, sucking him hard and fast. 
It had been ten minutes and Tyler was ready to shoot in Lucas’ mouth. The feel of his hot lips was too much. “I’m going to cum” He yelled out. Lucas lifted up his head and said “I want you to cum in my mouth, I want to drink your hot cum”. He closed his eyes and went back to work on Tyler’s cock. Tyler grabbed a hand full of Lucas’ hair. He screamed out loud as he felt his cum rushing from his cock and into Lucas’ waiting mouth. He shot over and over again till there was nothing left. 
His heart was racing and sweat was running down his forehead. “That was unbelievable” he said pulling Lucas close to him. They began to kiss and Tyler let his hand wrap around Lucas stiff and leaking pole. He began stroking it slowly at first and then speeded up when Lucas’ moans got louder. 
It only took Lucas fifteen minutes and Tyler could sense that he was ready to cum. He sucked on his neck as he let the hot sticky fluid cover is hand. Lucas cried out loud as Tyler squeezed the last of his cum out of his cock. He let his head fall on to Tyler’s chest as he tried to recover. He smiled to himself as Tyler kissed him on his face. They both closed their eyes and listened to the music lop over again. They both never thought that they would be this happy and they wanted this moment to last forever.

It was 9:30PM before Tyler woke up. He stretched out his arms above his head, letting his muscles tighten then relax. He looked down at Lucas who was still sleeping peacefully on his chest. He slid as slowly as he could out of the bed and pulled on his jeans. He turned off the music, which had been looping for hours and put the CD away. He took a quick piss then made his way down stairs, where he saw his mother sitting in the front room reading a book. She looked over to him and smiled “I thought you were never going to surface. I take it Lucas is still up there?”
“Yep” Said Tyler now sitting next to his mother.
“Has he spoken to his parents yet?”
“No. We haven’t even talked about what we’re going to do yet”
“We? Don’t you think this is between him and his parents?”
We’re in this together. If his parents can’t be there for him, then I want him to know that I am” Tyler said sounding a little defensive
“That’s all fine and well but he can’t hide here forever, besides they must be worried about him by now, maybe he should give them a call” She replied putting her book down and focusing her attention completely on her son.
Tyler got up and looked at his mother “What’s wrong with you? They kicked him out”
“Is that what he told you?” 
“Why are you defending them, you don’t even know them”
“I’m just trying to be rational here”. She said trying to sound calm. “I understand that Lucas is upset but I think he should try and work things out with his family.”
Tyler sighed and walked to the kitchen. “I don’t want us to fall out over this” his mother shouted after him but he never replied. She stood up and headed for the kitchen. Before she could reach there was knock at the door. 
She opened it and there was a tall thin man stand in front of her. He looked middle aged and had very grey hair. She looked behind him as saw a younger version of him. He too was tall but he had jet-black hair, which fell to his shoulders and beautiful green eyes. She knew instantly that it was Lucas’ father and brother. 
“Hello” the man said a little apprehensively. 
“Hi” She responded with a warm smile.
“Does a Tyler Henderson live here”
“Yes that’s my son”
“I was wondering if we could have a word with him” 
“No problem, come in.” 
She stepped aside and let the two men enter. “I take it you’re here about Lucas” she said still smiling “I’m glad you came. I was just saying to Tyler that I think Lucas should give you guys a call” 
Both men said nothing to her. They watched as she happily smiled at them. “Tyler” she yelled, never taking her eyes of the two handsome guys. 
“I don’t want to talk about this anymore,” Tyler shouted from the kitchen
“Tyler, there’s someone here for you”
Tyler walked out with a can of coke in his hand. He was about to say something to his mother when he saw the two visitors in front of him. “Mr Holter?”
“Where is my son Tyler?”
“ Up stairs, asleep but I don’t think he wants to see you”
“Could you wake him and tell him to come down here”
“He’s very upset…”
“Tyler” his mother said cutting him off. She nodded towards the stairs and told him to go. Reluctantly he did as he was told and went to fetch Lucas. As he reached the top he saw Lucas standing there leaning against the door of his bedroom, fully clothed with his jacket in hand. Tyler walked up to him and hugged him close. He could still smell himself all over Lucas, which made his cock twitch “You don’t have to do this. I can tell them that you don’t want to see them and you can stay here with me for a while.” he whispered
“Yeah I do. Your mums right, I need to get this sorted”
Tyler pulled back a little from Lucas and said, “You heard all that?”
Lucas smiled and kissed Tyler on the cheek. He brushed pass him and went down stairs. As he reached the bottom he heard Tyler’s mum introducing herself. 
“Please call me Melissa” she stretched out a hand and Lucas’ dad took it.
“I’m George” he said shaking it. “And this is my son Charlie”
Charlie smiled weakly at her but kept his head low. George turned in time to see Lucas at the bottom of the stairs. The expression on his face changed to one of relief. He released Melissa hand and put it back in his coat pocket. He looked his son straight in his eyes and said, “Come on son we’re leaving” He smiled at Melissa and walked out the house without another word spoken, with Charlie following closely behind. 
Lucas put on his jacket. He walked up to Melissa and thanked her for letting him stay, turned and saw Tyler sitting on the centre step. “Call me later” Tyler mouthed silently. Lucas smiled and walked through the door.
