‘I hate college,” Keith thought miserably. He had a term paper due in Intro to Space Plasma Physics tomorrow, and it was already midnight. ‘Not tomorrow anymore, and that’s what I get for making the idiot decision to major in Astrophysics,’ he grumbled to himself. ‘Three years of college so far, wasted if I don’t get this stupid paper done tonight.’ Sighing, he sat down at the computer and turned it on, waiting for it to boot. The machine was old, however, and took nearly five minutes just to start up, and during that time Keith heard his roommate, Adrian, walk into the apartment. ‘Of course, he took Aviation as his major, so he’s been out partying all night while I sat here trying to finish the homework for that stupid Optics class…’
Keith has long been jealous of his roommate, who, it seemed, never had any serious homework to do and was always out at parties hanging out with people from around school. No lonely nights for him, and no sitting up until 5am writing term papers, either. Keith cheerfully ignored that fact that he could have started writing the term paper last weekend, instead choosing to silently bash his roomie for having a good time. Engrossed in his silent litany of Adrian’s “faults” and busy waiting for the computer to boot, Keith jumped in surprise when Adrian wandered into his room.
“Bit jumpy aren’t you? You know it’s midnight…” Adrian grinned.
Keith rolled his eyes. “Hey. No, I didn’t notice.”
“Term paper again?” Keith nodded silently. Adrian laughed and walked over to him, sitting down on the floor next to Keith’s chair. “You know what your problem is?”
“I wasn’t aware I had a problem,” Keith growled, annoyed at the turn the conversation had just taken.
“Yep, it’s a big one. Know what it is?”
“Obviously not…”
“You’re too tense, that’s your problem. Of course, you’re also an idiot for taking something like Astrophysics, but mainly you’re just too tense. You should go to more parties or something.”
Keith, unhappy to hear his own thoughts repeated back to him, looked away bitterly. “I’m sorry, I’m just the geek who sits around doing homework all the time. I don’t get invited to parties.”
Adrian laughed. “You would if anyone thought you’d go. Being a geek is part of your charm you know.”
“I don’t have charm.”
“Do too.”
“Do – you know, this is just a stupid conversation. And anyway, you’re wrong, no one would ask me to go to a party.”
“Bet you I can prove you wrong.”
“Uh-huh.”
“I can!”
“Whatever, go for it.”
Keith was expecting to get hauled out of his chair and dragged off to a party somewhere; the term paper wasn’t going to get done anyway, so why not? He definitely wasn’t expecting for his roommate to stand up next to him, grab him by the back of the head, and pull him up into a full kiss on the mouth.
For a split second, Keith could do nothing but sit there in shock. The shock, however, wore away as Adrian continued kissing him and showed no signs of intending to stop, and Keith melted into the soft sensation of Adrian’s warm lips upon his. Pulling Adrian’s body down closer, Keith shifted to allow their chests to touch, and their bodies molded together in that sensuous embrace. Lost on the passion of that kiss, Keith allowed the misty feeling of Adrian’s lips to envelop him, forgetting about everything else. He forgot that only moments ago he had been panicking at the thought that he wasn’t going to get his term paper finished. He forgot that for the past five years of his life he had tried obliterating any feelings like this, viciously crushing any desire for the same sex, and at the same time, unwittingly crushing any desire for any sort of happiness. Now, however, nothing mattered beyond the blissful sensation of Adrian’s tender lips against his own.
Vaguely, as though from a great distance, Keith heard someone moaning and wondered in a small corner of his mind who it might be. It never occurred to him that it was himself. With a sigh of pleasure, the two of them separated, eyelashes brushing against each other as their eyes slowly opened. With their chests still pressed together, Keith could feel Adrian’s heart beating in time with his own, and a soft, wondering smile curved his lips.
Adrian smiled back, taking a few slow, deep breaths. Then he tangled his fingers in Keith’s hair and pulled Keith’s lips to his again.
Keith had time to suck in a quick breath before Adrian’s lips, now hard and burning with lust and desire, locked themselves to his. Then Adrian pulled back, for a second only, and kissed him again, showering Keith’s lips and face with rough kisses. Gasping in breaths between Adrian’s kisses, Keith began talking in a low voice.
“Take me to bed with you.”
Startled by Keith’s sudden boldness, Adrian drew back for a moment, gazing steadily at him. “Are you sure that’s what you want?”
Keith nodded, determined. He was tired of letting his fears dictate the way he ran his life. He had hurt himself with unfeeling for long enough; this outbreak of passion made him feel more alive than he’d felt in years, and now that he’d had a taste of being alive, he wasn’t about to let it go.
Adrian looked into his eyes for a minute longer, then smiled slowly, pleased by the determination and ardor that he saw there. Leaning forward to rest his chest against Keith’s again, he allowed his fingers to slide out of Keith’s hair and slowly, sensuously, down his back. He brought his lips up close to Keith’s ear and whispered softly.
“I am going to give you a night like you’ve never had before.” Keith shivered with pleasure at the sensation of those long, slender fingers trailing slowly down his back, and Adrian smiled, drawing his hands around to the front to move firmly up Keith’s chest, slowly swirling his fingertips around Keith’s nipples. Keith groaned, fully aroused, and Adrian took the opportunity to kiss him again, slipping his tongue into Keith’s open mouth. Excited by the new sensation, Keith slipped his own tongue into Adrian’s mouth. Chuckling, Adrian began sucking and teasing Keith’s tongue, swirling his own tongue around it and alternately sucking and blowing on it. Keith moaned again, and Adrian shoved their hips together, pressing his pulsing cock into Keith’s groin and moaning himself as he felt Keith’s dick grind into him…
