Chapter 5
Confessions

The next day Jonathan thought long and hard about what he had done.  He had the courage to tell Carl what his problem was, and the man was not as much puffed up and vain last night as he had been.  Aside from the sex, Jonathan’s date was not as bad as he expected it would be.  Secure in his new found knowledge that truth was the best possibility, he decided not to beat around the bush and to ask Mark what was wrong between them, just as Carl had asked him.  He was so adamant about getting at  the truth, he vowed to push Mark to the wall, if necessary.

He texted Mark:  Please give me a chance to talk to you.  Meet me somewhere soon.  He thought long and hard about it, and finally added:  I LUV U.  J

Mark was very shocked, and he was more confused than ever.  He had confided his background to Jonathan, and still the guy loved him.  He knew they would have to meet and thrash it out.

He texted back:  I’m working lunch today.  Meet me at the lily pond behind Stanton Hall at 4  PM.   M.

Moments letter he got another text from Jonathan:  Thank U!  Thank U!  Thank U.    J.

It was hard for Jonathan to get through the day.  The meeting was all he could think about.  Mark was much less agitated.  He still believed that nothing would come of this meeting, so he was braced for an unhappy ending.

When Jonathan saw Mark face to face at the lily pond, he wanted to grab and kiss him, but he restrained himself. He remained forthright and determined.

“Why are you dumping me?” Jonathan asked. 

Mark lowered his head and said nothing, so Jonathan continued.  “We were both hiding our sexual orientation from the world and from each other.  Without either of us coming out to each other, we knew.  That’s because of the chemistry between us.  Doesn’t that count for anything?  I’m not letting this go until I have an explanation.  I’ll bug you until we both graduate.”

Mark finally found his voice.  “It’ll never work between us.  You’re a WASP from Middle America; white, Protestant, cute as the dickens, and I’m a Latino from the ghettos of Miami, ten shades darker than you.  Oh Jonathan, we are so different; different cultures, and different religions.  We wouldn’t last a year.”

Jonathan looked at Mark incredulously.  “Are you kidding me?  That’s what you perceive is keeping you from me?  What ancient world are you living in?  I can’t change my color any more than you can, but if you want, I’ll change my religion.  I love you so much.  I’m not asking for a commitment.  Just please give us a chance.”

“Wait, there’s more,” Mark said.  “It’s not only our backgrounds and our different social upbringings, it’s economics as well.  I have no money, and I can’t do all the things you will want to do.  I refuse for you to treat me to anything.  It demeans me.”

“Another problem solved,” Jonathan said.  “We won’t go anywhere.  We’ll stay home and make love constantly.  They say you can’t live on love alone, but I know we can.,” Jonathan was begging now.

“You’re a hopeless romantic and a dangerous dreamer,” Mark said.  “Besides, I’m a virgin.  I don’t know if I can make love constantly.”

“Let’s try.  Your roommate is going home for the weekend.  It gives me a few  ideas.  I’d rather make love with you than eat out anyway.  We can cancel Friday night.”

“Good.  I didn’t know where I would get the money to go Dutch.”

“It’s too bad you’re so rigid.   I found a great Cuban restaurant not far away.  You’d love it.”

“A Cuban restaurant in this part of the world?” Mark asked in wonderment.  I don’t believe it.”

“You’d better believe it.  Would it be all right if I took you there on your birthday, and treated you?”

“I guess so,” Mark murmured.

“It’s almost dinner time,” Jonathan noted.  “Will you please have dinner with me?  I’ll let you carry my tray.”

“Jerk,” Mark said, and he began to laugh.  On the other hand Jonathan began to cry.

“What’s wrong?” Mark asked with concern.

“Nothing’s wrong.  It’s just that I love  you so much, I can’t believe the universe brought us together.”

“We’re not together.  This is a trial run.  Remember?”

Jonathan looked at his watch.  “It’s past five,” he said.  “It’s a little early, but we might as well go to dinner.”

Dinner began serving at five, and they were among the first to arrive.  There were plenty of available tables.  They sat down and moments later Carl joined them.

“Are you following me?” Jonathan asked.  His tone was disdainful.

“Yes and no,” Carl said.  “I’m following you to thank you for opening my eyes, and after you introduce me to your boyfriend, I have a proposal.”

“No threesomes,” Jonathan said.

“Your mind is in the gutter.  I had no such intention.  I want to show you my appreciation, and I would like to treat you and your boyfriend here (whose name I still don’t know) to a weekend in Chicago.  I’ll take you to my favorite gay bar.”

Jonathan looked at Mark.  “I’d like you to meet Carl,” he said.  “Carl this is Mark.  He’s the love of my life.”  Mark turned red.

“Pleased to meetcha,” Carl said, “but what about my proposal.  It would give me great pleasure.”

“This is different, Mark” Jonathan said.  “There’s no way, you can construe this to be charity.”

“I know, and I’d like for us to accept, but remember I work the dinner shift on Sundays.  We’ll have to be back here by 4 PM.”

“Not a problem,” Carl said.

“I’ll see to it,” Jonathan added.

“Can I join you guys for dinner now?” Carl asked.

“Yes, be our guest,” Jonathan said.

Carl went up to the chow line to get his dinner, and Mark said, “I guess our romantic weekend is off.”

“Not necessarily.  Carl took my virginity and he’s an excellent teacher.  The three of us will no doubt share a hotel room.  Let’s see what happens.”

“By the way,” Mark asked.  “What did you do for him that he wants to express his gratitude?”

“It’s complicated,” Jonathan said.  “I’ll explain when we’re alone. He grabbed Mark’s hand as if he was afraid of losing him again.

During dinner, Carl said, “I know you guys aren’t interested in a three way, but I sense that you’re newbies.  I’ll teach you everything I know if you don’t mind me watching.”

It was as if he had heard every word of their conversation while he was filling up his tray.  Jonathan and Mark looked at him in astonishment.

“We won’t mind at all,” Jonathan said, but Mark wasn’t so sure.  Again his cheeks turned very rosy.

When dinner was over, Carl said, “Let’s try to get on the road by 5 PM on Friday.  I’ll drive.  It was nice to meetcha Mark.  Ciao until Friday.”

Mark thought that he would have to wait until the weekend to lose his virginity, but Jonathan had other ideas.  “Come with me,” he said.

He led Mark to the students’ parking lot, and to his car.  “Sit,” he said.  “I’m driving us to Paradise.” 

He drove to the high school and parked as close to the woods as possible.  The chilly weather was gone, and more seasonal temperatures prevailed.  In fact, it was warm even for early September.  Jonathan led Mark to the little secluded clearing.

“I didn’t expect to be here tonight,” he said, “so I’m not fully prepared, but if you’ll let me I’d like to give you a blow job.”

“Of course I’ll let you.  I want you to take my virginity, and then I’d like to do the same to you.”

They dropped their pants and underwear rapidly and sat down on the grass.  Mark expected Jonathan to go right down on him, but instead, he started to kiss Mark.

“I’ve wanted to do this since I met you,” he said.

They offered each other some tongue, and the kissing got more and more passionate.  As they kissed they fondled each other.  Mark noted that Jonathan was cut and at least an inch longer than he was.  Jonathan noted that Mark was uncut and just as hefty as he.

Suddenly Jonathan sensed that Mark was near to climaxing, and he finally went down on him.  Just a few short strokes of his tongue brought Mark to the end.  He gushed into Jonathan’s mouth, and as he came, he yelled, “I love you too, Jonathan.  I’ve loved you since we met.”

Jonathan swallowed all of Mark’s cum.  He saved nothing for his lover.  He reckoned that Mark would get plenty of his cum in just a few minutes.
