Edging Closer
by David Heulfryn
Although James had finished his exams and no longer had to go to school, I still had another four weeks before we broke up for the long summer break. James was bored and kept messaging me. I wished I could spend more time with him, but I still had schoolwork and homework. I know James promised to help with my homework if I went around to see him, but I knew I wouldn’t get any work done. Mum and Dad knew as well and made sure I had done all my homework before I was allowed to see him.
Finn never said a word about me losing my virginity, not even to me. He only ever said anything when I mentioned it first.
Mum and Dad had been spending more time in Cockaigne, and today, when Dad got home, we were called downstairs so they could speak to us. Finn and I looked at each other, wondering what was happening.
I saw Mum sitting in her usual chair, her legs closed, her hands clasped together in her lap with a smile on her face. Dad was standing and told Finn and me to sit down.
Dad sat in his usual chair, “We need to talk to you both.”
My stomach lurched into my throat. I always thought the worst.
“Your Mum and I have found a nice house in Cockaigne and made an offer.”
Finn jumped up and squealed, “When do we move?”
“Hold on, Finn.” Mum calmed him down. “We promised that you two could have a say, so we want to show you the house, and if you don’t like it, we’ll keep looking.”
“But you’ve put in an offer,” I said flatly. It sounded like they had already made up their minds.
“I know,” Dad said, “That’s just to secure it. We can pull out without any problem.”
Dad pulled out his laptop and sat between Finn and me on the sofa. He showed us pictures of the house. It looked nice.
Mum provided the commentary, “It’s a three-bedroomed house, so you can have your own rooms if you want.”
“We don’t want our own room.” Finn protested.
I agreed, “I don’t think we’re ready for that yet, Mum.”
“That’s fine. But the option is there if or when you’re ready. It would mean that we have a spare bedroom for guests.”
We looked back at the screen and saw the kitchen, bathroom, and downstairs toilet. It was much bigger than the small terraced house we currently lived in.
“It looks so much bigger.” I said, “Are you sure you can afford it?”
Dad squeezed my thigh, “Don’t worry about that. It’s fine. We’re not overstretching ourselves.”
Both Finn and I said the house looked nice. Mum said it was further away from the school than they had hoped, but it was still within walking distance.
Finn was excited and asked when we were moving. But it could still be a few months away yet.
Finn was still excited when we went to bed, in separate beds, for a change. He wouldn’t stop fidgeting. I suspected that was why he didn’t get in bed with me. He didn’t want to disturb my sleep.
“I can’t wait to move. The house looks brilliant. Everything looks so much bigger. Our room looks bigger than this one, we could have our own desks instead of sharing. We even have a downstairs toilet. I’m so excited.”
I laughed, “You couldn’t tell, Min.”
“Stop it, Max. Don’t tease me. But you don’t seem excited. What’s wrong.” Finn calmed down and became serious.
“I am glad.” I sighed, “I suppose it’s just dawned on me that I am closer to moving away from James.”
“I know, but this is going to be an amazing adventure. Mum said they’re taking us to look at the house this weekend. Why don’t you ask if James can come too.”
“Do you think they’d let him?”
“All you have to do is ask, Max. They might say yes. If they don’t, then at least you asked.”
“I suppose.” I considered his suggestion. “I’ll ask in the morning. Are they planning on staying overnight?”
“I don’t know,” Finn said, “But if they do and we have that family room again, the double bed is big enough for the three of us. So tell them that we don’t mind sharing.”
“Thanks, Min.”
“Tell Mum I’ll go in the middle to keep you two from each other.” Finn giggled.
“You’d love that, wouldn’t you?” I laughed.
“I would. James is a little bigger than you, so he will keep me warmer.”
“Be careful, Min. If you upset me, I’ll never let you in my bed again.”
“You wouldn’t dare,” Finn knew it was an empty threat, “You’d miss your Min-shaped hot water bottle.”
“I know.” I laughed. “You have me wrapped around your little finger, and you know it.” I laughed.
“Well, I’m the baby of the family. That’s my job. You could never deny me what I wanted, even when we were younger.”
“Min?” I said.
“Yes, Max.”
“Will you come over here and get in with me?”
“No.” Finn stifled a giggle, “You come over here.”
“I’m not moving.” I tried to sound adamant.
“If you want my body, you’ll have to come and get it.”
I burst out laughing louder than I thought. Mum and Dad would have heard, but they didn’t shout upstairs, telling us to settle down.
In all seriousness, Finn asked what I was laughing about. He said he had a good body and got out of bed to show me. I didn’t need to look. I’d seen Finn naked so many times, but this time, when I looked, I noticed that his bush was more extensive, and his pubes were growing. I also noticed his cock looked a little longer. The long overhang of his foreskin looked shorter. His cock didn’t look like it was engorged. It looked soft.
“Max. I’m not a piece of meat.” I think I was looking too long. “Stop staring at my cock.”
When I looked away, I noticed Finn grinning at me.
“Now you’re out of bed. Get in with me.” I lifted my duvet and shuffled over, making room for him.
Finn slipped in, and we snuggled together. He felt cold after being out of bed for so long.
“I wonder if we can persuade Mum and Dad to get us a double bed when we move.” Finn thought out loud.
“That would mean us sleeping in the same bed every night, Min. I’m not sure I could cope with that.”
“Well, if they put another bed in the spare room, you can go there when we don’t want to.”
“That would mean it would effectively be your room. Why should you get the bigger room? How about you sleep in the spare room when I kick you out of bed?”
“Because you love me and would do anything for me.” I’m sure Finn was grinning.
“They’ve only just bought us new beds. I don’t want them to waste more money buying a new bed, Min.”
“You will always be sensible, Max. But have you thought about the benefits?” Finn asked, “With a double bed, you and James would find it easier when you mess around.”
“Min!” I tapped his upper arm. “It’s not all about James and me.”
“I know,” Finn laughed, “I’m also thinking about when I get a boyfriend.”
I couldn’t help laughing, too, “If you get a boyfriend, do you really think Mum and Dad would let you alone with him in our room, especially if we have a double bed.”
“We’ll be living in Cockaigne, so there’ll be nothing wrong with it.”
“It may be okay in Cockaigne, Min. But it may not be okay for Mum and Dad. We just don’t know how more relaxed they’ll become.”
“Well, Dad allowed you wank off James in front of a room full of strangers.”
“I know. James was shocked we did that. And that Dad didn’t object.”
“I think James will fit in well in Cockaigne,” Finn said. “He also looks very good naked.”
“Are you perving on my boyfriend?” I laughed.
“I’m just admiring someone with a good body. He does look very sexy, and he has a nice cock.”
“I’m not with him for his body, Min.” I told him, “I love him.”
“I know, Max. But the fact he has a banging body helps.” He giggled.
I squeezed Finn and whispered into his ear, “Yes, it does help that he has a banging body.” I felt my cock thicken and press against Finn’s arse. As my cock expanded, I could feel my foreskin retract, and my sensitive knob rubbed between his arse. I couldn’t help but groan.
“What are you thinking about doing to him?” Finn whispered.
“I’m thinking of making love to him again.” I sighed. “You can’t know how great it felt. James wants to do it again, but….”
“Don’t you want to fuck him again?” Finn butted in.
“Yes… No… No, Min. I don’t want to fuck him. I want to make love to him again.”
“What’s the difference?” Finn asked.
“Well, I’ve never fucked anybody, but I suppose fucking just gets you off. It’s purely physical. Making love… Well, there’s an emotional connection.”
“But you’re doing the same thing.”
“Yes, but it’s different.”
“So when are you going to do it again?”
“I don’t know. We both want to, but we don’t think our parents would approve. He’s only just turned sixteen, and I’m still underage. The first time was a surprise for both of us, but later, when he was alone, he got to thinking about me and how I was still fifteen.”
“But it doesn’t matter, Max.”
“It does, Min. Strictly speaking, James is breaking the law.”
“But you’re only about six months apart in age,” Finn argued.
“I suppose nothing would actually happen, but he’s got it in his head that it’s illegal.”
“What about you, Max?” Finn asked, “How do you feel?”
“I’m more worried about what Mum and Dad would say if they found out. Well, Mum really. I think Dad would be okay, he might be disappointed that I’ve not waited, but I think Mum would be very disappointed. I’m not sure she’s loosened up enough like Dad has.”
“Do you think you’ll do it again before you turn sixteen? It’ll mean waiting until we go back to school after the summer holidays.”
“I would like to, Min. I’ve told James that I’m not bothered about the age thing. So I’m just giving James some time. I think he realises nothing would happen. It’s not like I’m being groomed by a dirty old man.”
“What about the other stuff you’ve done. Wouldn’t that have been illegal too?” Finn asked.
“Well, we were both underage then, so I don’t know. But now he’s sixteen, he started to worry. I wonder if his parents have said something. He was always ready to go further and never pressured me, but I knew he always wanted to do more. Finally, we did, and now he doesn’t want to do it again.”
“Perhaps it hurt him?” Finn said.
“No, I didn’t. I looked at his face all the time. If he was in pain, I would have known. We’ve not actually had any opportunity to do it again yet. So I don’t know why he’s worrying.”
“If I can help, Max.” Finn held my hand. “You know I will do it.”
“I know, Min.”
“And I’ll be discreet.” Finn squeezed my hand, “So that James doesn’t know what I think you might be getting up.”
“You are the best, Min. You may mess around, be silly and tease me, but you always know when I need you. When you need to be sensible.” I kissed Finn’s shoulder. “I love you, Min.”
“I love you, Max.”
