“Resolution”

           I hadn’t planned on telling my best friend Bianca Tyler that I’d been in a relationship with her brother Brandon; but the moment I learned he was back from Afghanistan, I knew the truth was going to have to come out. Brandon was only a year older than me and Bianca, but he was so much more mature than anyone our age. When we were in eleventh grade, he took my virginity on the night of—his senior and my junior—prom. We were together throughout my senior year but our relationship suffered when he enlisted in the military. I admit, it was hard keeping that big of a secret from my best friend but I swore allegiance to Brandon that I wouldn’t tell her.

           “Micah, I need to talk to you about Brandon,” Bianca said to me as she stood in my doorway.

           I immediately tensed up and asked, “What about him?”

           “He told the family something last night that I cannot believe.” She stepped inside and told me, “He told us he’s bisexual.”

           Slightly relieved, I closed the door and asked her, “Is that a bad thing?”

           “Well…no but I wasn’t expecting it. I don’t know what made him tell us at this time but…I don’t know. I just don’t know how to feel about it.”

           “Come on, let’s go up to my room and talk. You know how nosy my mama is.” I grabbed her hand and led her upstairs to my bedroom.

           Bianca and I talked about everything and usually nothing was off-limits, but preparing to talk to her about Brandon being bisexual knowing that I’d been with him was like walking barefoot on sharp needles. I usually didn’t think about Brandon whenever I talked to her, but now all I could think about was the last time I was with him. We had sex that day and then ended the relationship amicably. I’d moved on and I was sure he’d moved on as well, but that did nothing to ease the awkwardness I felt while looking into Bianca’s eyes.

           “I just can’t picture him with another guy,” she blurted out. “Like no offense to you; Micah, but I can’t see Brandon with a guy.”

                                               Me (Micah Hill)

           “Why would I be offended by that?”

           “You know…because you’re gay.”

           “Bianca, I understand how you’re feeling. Just because I’m gay doesn’t mean I don’t understand your confusion. He’s your only brother and you’ve only seen him date women.”

           “Exactly. You remember how he was in high school, right? He had damn near every girl fighting over him.”

           “True. Well, how are your parents taking it?”

           “They’re still more concerned with Brittany being engaged to an ex-con to really care about Brandon being bi. He told them and they were just like, ‘okay.’ I guess when you have six wild daughters and one tamed son, it doesn’t matter if that son happens to be bi.”

           “Six wild daughters? Bianca, you’ve never been wild.”

           “So, you don’t remember me sneaking out to meet up with boys in high school?”

           “Yeah, but that’s not as bad as getting pregnant at sixteen like your sister Breanna did.”

           “It took all of us to keep my mama from beating her ass. Damn, that was a crazy time.”

           “I honestly don’t think Brandon being bisexual is that surprising.”

           When I said that, she gave me a look and smirked before asking, “What makes you say that?”

           “I’m just saying, he’s a good guy and he likes everybody. He’s a good person to be around.”

           “Yeah, it’s like he’s from another family.” She giggled and then asked, “So, what are your plans for tonight?”

           “Plans? Girl, I’m staying in and watching the countdown on TV.”

           “Micah, you’re not coming to Chrissy’s party?”

           “Nope. I just don’t feel like it.”

           “Ugh, you so boring!” She laughed and playfully hit me. “I guess I’ll just party for the both of us tonight then.” She got a text message from someone and texted them back.

           “Who is that?”

           “Brandon. He said he’s bored at the recruitment office. I can’t believe they have him down there doing paperwork while the office is closed. It’s New Year’s Eve.”

           “The recruitment office? Exactly how long is he going to be in town?”

           “Micah, he’s back for good. He’s not doing anymore tours in Afghanistan. He’s about to get an apartment downtown.”

           “Wow, I thought he was just visiting for the holidays.”

                                                  Bianca Tyler

           “Nope, he’s back home and even though he dropped that bombshell on the family last night, I’m glad he’s home.”

           As much as I wanted to be honest with her, I couldn’t do it in that moment. How can you tell someone who recently learned her brother is bisexual that you used to be in a secret relationship with him? So, I talked with her for a while and after she left, I got dressed and headed down to the Army recruitment office. I was anxious to see him for the first time in over two years, but I knew once I saw him that I’d be okay. Brandon always had this calming effect on me and I loved being near him.

           “Hey soldier,” I said with a smile as I approached his cubicle.

           He turned around in his swivel chair and his face lit up when he saw it was me. He smiled big and asked, “How did you get in here?”

                                               Brandon Tyler

           “I told the white lady up front that I was family.”

           “Damn, look at you.” He stood up and wrapped his arms around me. “You look great, Puppy.”

           I laughed when he called me that because that was his little nickname for me. His arm was still around me as I pulled back from the hug and looked into his eyes. I giggled as I told him, “You look great, too.”

           “I missed you.”

           “I missed you, too.”

           “Yeah, sure you did. I know you probably gave some lucky undeserving dude a chance.”

           “Hmm, if I didn’t know any better I’d think you were asking me if I’m single.”

           “Are you?”

           “Yes Brandon, I’m single.”

           “I told you before I left that you didn’t have to wait for me.”

           “Negro, I didn’t say anything about I waited.” I laughed a little before saying, “I dated and I had a few potential situations, but nothing really worked out. What about you?”

           “I had a few hookups but nothing serious at all.” He grabbed my hand and admitted, “To be honest with you, I was hoping I’d come back here and you’d be single so we could restart where we left off.”

           “Seriously?”

           “Yes. I’m sure my sister told you I came out to the family last night.”

           “I was just with her at my house and she told me.”

           “Yeah, I finally told them I’m bi. I can’t believe how cool everyone was about it. Then again, I was never as much of a handful as any of my sisters.”

           “That’s exactly what Bianca said.”

           His telephone rang and he stepped over to it and answered it. After the call ended, he came back over to me and asked, “What are your plans for tonight?”

           “I don’t have any. Why?”

           “Bianca’s friend Chrissy is having a party and I was hoping I’d run into you there so we could talk, but you’re here now. Are you gonna be at the party?”

           “I wasn’t going to go but if you’re gonna be there, I might as well show up.”

           “Cool. I got a ton of paperwork to do so I’ll see you there, Puppy.”

           I giggled again and asked, “Are you ever gonna stop calling me that?”

           “Nope. You’re always gonna be my cute Puppy. I don’t care how old you get. See you tonight.”

           “See ya, soldier.” I flashed him one more smile before turning and leaving. I looked back to see him watching me walk away and I got butterflies in my stomach. I couldn’t wait for that night.

           “I thought you weren’t coming here tonight?” Bianca asked me as she approached me at Chrissy’s New Year’s Eve party.

           “I changed my mind,” I told her. “So, is Brandon here yet?”

           “Yeah, he’s…” She stopped and then gave me a look as she asked, “Why are you looking for Brandon?”

           “No reason. I just wanted to say hey. It’s been a while since I last saw him.”

           “Oh, okay. There’s a lot of people here, right?”

           “Yeah. I didn’t think Chrissy would’ve invited this many people. Then again, her parents are in Paris. I wish my parents would take a trip out of the country.”

           “Who are you telling?” She laughed and joked, “If I could have my house to myself, I’d throw a party and invite everyone from campus.”

           “Speaking of campus, do you think Brandon will enroll at Calhoun now that he’s home for good?”

           “I don’t know. I haven’t talked to him about it. Come on, let’s go get some champagne.”

           I followed her into the kitchen and we poured ourselves some champagne. I’d just turned twenty-one in November so it was my first time drinking alcohol. Not a second after I drank from my glass, Brandon entered the kitchen with a bottle of Budweiser in his hand. He looked at me and said, “Hey, Micah.”

           “Hey. Bianca told me you were here.” I gave him a hug and pretended as if I hadn’t seen him earlier that day.

           “I’ll let you two get caught up,” Bianca said to us. “Micah, don’t forget Chrissy paid for a cool firework display in her backyard. I’ll be out there when you’re done talking to Brandon’s nerdy ass.”

           “Nerdy?” he asked with a laugh. “I’ma get you for that later.” He watched as she left the kitchen. He then turned his attention on me and asked, “Are you ever gonna tell her about us?”

           “It’ll be better if you told her. She is your sister.”

           “But you’re her best friend.”

           “She might bite my head off.”

           “No, she won’t. I don’t think she’ll trip. How about we both tell her?”

           “Well, first we need to make sure we’re both on the same page about the present. Are you sure you want to try this again?”

           “Baby, I am one hundred percent sure. When you walked into the recruitment office earlier today, my heart stopped. Well, that and my dick got hard.” He laughed before continuing, “Micah, I love you. I’ve loved you for a while now and I should’ve told you this a long time ago. I think I fell in love with you the night I took your virginity but I could never find the right time to tell you.”

           I tried to fight the tears but they were building in my eyes regardless. I stared back into his eyes as I told him, “I love you, too.”

           He put his arms around me and licked his lips before pressing them to mine. I sat my glass of champagne down and he sat down his bottle of beer so we could feel on each other while we kissed. We were so caught up in the moment that we didn’t notice Bianca until she cleared her throat and asked, “What is going on in here?”

           “Oh, sis,” Brandon said as he stepped behind me to hid his erection. “How long were you standing there?”

           “Long enough to see you two locking lips. Micah, what’s going on?”

           “I did not want you to find out this way,” I began, “but maybe it needs to happen this way. Bianca, Brandon and I were in a relationship for a little while before he enlisted. We put the relationship on pause and now we’re restarting it. I know I should’ve told you a long time ago, but…”

           “Does he treat you right?”

           “Yes.”

           She looked at her brother and asked, “Does Micah make you happy?”

           He put his arm around me from behind and replied, “He does. I love him.”

           “Well, I’m cool with it. But absolutely no kissing in front of me for a while. It’s weird.”

           “Are you really okay with this?” I asked her.

           “You’re my best friend, Micah. If you were some random dude then of course I’d have some problems, but I can’t even get mad at you. You two actually look cute together.”

           “Wow, I stressed out over this today for nothing,” I said with a laugh.

           “It’s almost time for the countdown,” Brandon said. “Come on, let’s go outside.”

           The three of us left the kitchen and headed out back where everyone else was. We all did the countdown and when midnight arrived, Brandon and I shared a kiss. That kiss was just as sweet as the first one I shared with him back when I was seventeen. I had no idea what was in store for us in the new year; but I knew we were entering it as a reunited couple, and I was pretty excited about that.

“DL Confession #3”

          I couldn’t believe we lost our chance to advance in the NCAA Men’s Basketball Tournament for the first time since I’d been at UCLA. It was my final year playing for the team and that made the loss even harder for me. Our coaches tried to make it seem like we had a decent season but their words of encouragement did little to make most of us feel better. For me, I needed an escape and the best escape was my secret guilty pleasure. His name was Allen and I was long overdue for some freaky fun with him.

          “I’m at the gym, Chloe,” I said to my girlfriend over the phone. “I’ll just meet you at the party.”

          “But baby,” she pleaded on the other end, “we always ride to parties together. Besides, it’s going to be thunderstorming all evening and you know I hate driving in thunderstorms.”

          “Then use Lyft to get you there.”

          “But Ted…”

          “Chloe, you know I’ve been going through a lot lately. I really just need some time to myself right now. I’ll see you at the party later.”

          “So, you’re mad at me?”

          “What?” I quickly calmed myself before I got too angry and assured her, “Baby, I’m not mad at you. I love you.”

          “I love you, too. Well, I guess I’ll use Lyft to get there.”

          “Good. See you later, baby.” I ended the call and then headed into the locker room to grab my stuff.

          I really did love Chloe but she sometimes added to my stress, and that day was just one of those days. I’d been with her since sophomore year and we were serious. While she was the only woman I was having sex with, she wasn’t the only person. The stress-free relationship I had with Allen actually began the summer after my freshman year. If it weren’t for him, I don’t know how I would’ve managed all the constant shit going on in my life. He was more than just my distraction from reality, he was the one person I could be me around without fear of judgment.

“Hookup”

           I rarely used Grindr because it was full of fake profiles and paranoid DL men, but I was in a mood that night. I was swiping through profiles when a guy messaged me his phone number. I checked out his profile but the only pic he had up was a pixelated pic of what looked like a pair of shoes. I sent him a message back saying I wasn’t interested and when he asked why, I told him because he had no pics up. He then sent a message telling me to call him and I wouldn’t regret it. I was going to block him and move on but something told me to give it a try. So, I called him.

           “Wassup,” he said to me after answering the call on the second ring.

           “Are you gonna send me a pic?” I asked immediately.

           He laughed and said, “Why send a pic when you can come see me in public?”

           “Your profile said you’re on the low. How can we meet in public if you’re on the low?”

           “Ain’t nobody really in here right now. The store will be closin’ soon.”

           “Store? What store?”

           “Target. I’m in the snack shop part of the store. If you wanna meet up then get yo fine ass down here. Your pics look sexy as fuck, bruh.”

           Flattered, I laughed a little and asked, “You’re at the Target in Fairmount Plaza?”

           “Yep. I’m sittin’ at a table with my dick on brick thinkin’ about what yo head game must be like. Them lips look like they can do some damage. I ain’t never been sucked up by a dude before.”

           “You haven’t?”

           “Nah, but I heard y’all know what to do. I need my dick slurped on and gagged on for real. I ain’t nutted in over a week.”

           “Alright, let me throw on some clothes and I’ll come meet you. If you’re on any kind of bullshit, I swear I will put you on blast in public.”

           He laughed again and said, “Bruh, I ain’t on that bullshit. You’ll see.”

           “I’ll be there shortly.”

           “Bet.”

           I ended the call and tried not to get excited or get my hopes up. I really needed some dick that night and I admit I was a little turned on by the fact that he’d never been with another guy before. True curious men were like unicorns and it was always amazing seeing their reactions to some of the things I’d do to them. Before leaving to go meet up with my Grindr hookup, I told myself that if it didn’t work out then I could still jackoff while one of my anal toys was up in my ass.

“A Righteous Burden”

           The date July 22, 2009 is a date that I will never forget. It was a cloudy Wednesday afternoon and while I wasn’t necessarily looking forward to Pastor Ballard’s Bible study, I was excited about choir rehearsal because our choir director Mr. Hankinson had agreed to play a song that I composed myself. I’d been trying to get him to use one of my compositions since I began writing music. I wasn’t much of a gospel lyricist so Mr. Hankinson wrote words for the music, and they were amazing. I couldn’t wait to sing the song with the choir for the first time and I really couldn’t wait to sing it for the church that following Sunday. However, it wasn’t my music that made July 22, 2009 memorable. It turned out to be the day I experienced a miracle.

           “You’re not gonna change my mind,” Kareem said to me while putting on his Jordans. “I’m done with school, Ant.”

           “Why now?” I asked while looking at myself in the mirror to make sure my tie was on right. “Baby, why would you drop out of school right before our senior year?”

           “Because it’s pointless. I’m not goin’ to college or doin’ anything important so I don’t see why I should waste my time.”

           “So, being at school with me is a waste of your time?”

           “That ain’t what I meant and you know it. Anthony, I’m just done with that shit. I’m done with it. I’m a grown ass man. Fuck…I mean, forget school. I got other stuff I need to be worried about.”

           Kareem Taylor had been my boyfriend for a little over a year but we’d known each other since elementary school. He was my best friend up until sixth grade, which was when he began picking on me and hanging out with the bad boys at school. I later figured out he picked on me because he liked me and even though I liked him, too, neither of us built up the nerve to do anything about it until the end of our tenth-grade year. I wrote him a letter basically telling him that I wanted us to be boyfriends. He came to my house after school that day and gave me my first kiss. And just like that, we were together.

“I Care 4 U”

          The rain was pouring down that Saturday night as if it were coming from an enormous showerhead directly above Baton Rouge. The date was February 14, 2015 and I was ready for Valentine’s Day to be over. Yet again, I didn’t have a boyfriend or even someone to fake it with for some V-Day dick; therefore, I was over it. Still recovering from a cold, I was feeling good enough to try out a new anal toy I’d purchased from Amazon. My dinner consisted of a fruit salad with a caramel drizzle and water, so douching was a breeze. It was a quarter to eleven and I was all set for some vibrating action when there was a knock at my bedroom door. I put on my robe and opened the door to see my roommate Brendon standing there.

          “Taye, please tell me you have some lube,” he said while barging into my room.

          “Hold up,” I snapped. “How are you just gonna roll up in my room like that? What if I would’ve had somebody up in here?”

          He looked around and smirked as he said, “You don’t. Anyway, I need lube. Greg got a hotel suite for us and told his wife he’s out of town for the weekend. He can’t use his debit card because his wife monitors the account and he spent the little cash he had in his wallet on the suite. You know I’m broke as fuck until my next paycheck.”

          “You better be glad I have extra.” I went over to my nightstand and grabbed one of my bottles of naturally scented edible lubricant. I handed it to him and suggested, “You shouldn’t be sleeping with some woman’s husband.”

          “Bitch please, you’ve seen him on Facebook. That man is the epitome of fine.”

          “He is but I’d feel guilty as fuck. I don’t see how you do it.”

          “Taye, the man is more into fem bitches like me than he is into his wife. He likes to suck dick and fuck an asshole.” He noticed the way I was looking and shook his head before asking, “So, you’d never give a brotha in need some ass if he’s married or in a serious relationship?”

          “No. It’s not my thing.”

          “Okay, but what about a guy who was with someone you knew? Would you fuck around with one our friends’ exes? Hell, would you fuck around with one of mine?”

“Freak by Night 10: A Night to Remember”

           Prom night was bittersweet in a number of ways. It was going to be one of the last times I got to party with my closest friends since we were all going off to different colleges. Still, I was relieved to be done with high school. With only final exams left before graduation, I was ready to leave Morrison Heights, Virginia behind and go to California to attend UC Berkeley. However, the only things—or I should say boys—on my mind the entire night of prom were Kedric and Saquan. They were both at prom with their girlfriends and I was nervous as fuck.

           I lost my virginity to Saquan Hubbard in eleventh grade. He was a popular boy on the football team. He went to my church and I had absolutely no idea he was on the low until he asked me to give him a hand job one morning in the church bathroom after the church service. That progressed into me giving him head regularly after school in a janitor’s closet. When his parents went out of town one weekend, we took advantage and had sex for the first time. I always thought my first time would be special and passionate, but I did enjoy it even though it was extremely painful. I liked Saquan but he wasn’t my boyfriend and only liked to hook up to have sex and get his nut. We didn’t kiss or cuddle or anything like that.

           Kedric Matthews was the complete opposite of Saquan. Kedric was on the basketball team and he was always joking around with me in our twelfth-grade calculus class. He wasn’t afraid of people knowing about us being friends and I kind of had a feeling that he liked me on the low but I couldn’t prove it. I finally got confirmation that he liked me when he wrote a note and slid it into my locker. He wanted me to meet him at a park near his house that night and when I showed up, he was all over me. We ended up having sex the following weekend and it was everything I’d always wanted. He was gentle with me and he kissed me and held me.

           “What’s wrong with you, Tamarri?” my best friend Keisha asked me. “They’re playing some good music and all you wanna do is sit over here?”

           “I’m having a great time,” I told her. “I’m just…I guess I’m a little sad that me, you, Tory, Michelle and Jamal are all going away to different colleges after the summer. High school is about to end and we’ve been friends since elementary school.”

                                            Me (Tamarri Banks)

           “Boy, you are gonna make me cry. Stop all this sad talk. We all came here as a group and we’re gonna party tonight and talk tomorrow.”

           “I have other things on my mind, too.”

           “Like what?”

           I looked over at Kedric and his girlfriend Malaysia before looking back at Keisha and lying, “Final exams and college.”

           “Tamarri, just forget about all of that right now. The only thing that needs to be on your mind tonight is having fun with me and our friends. Now get up. I wanna dance with the cutest boy in here and that just happens to be your cute ass.”

           I laughed as I stood up from the table with her and headed over to the dance floor. As we danced, I noticed Kedric looking at me occasionally. He’d smile and I’d smile back but it didn’t go beyond that. He was with Malaysia and I always tried to keep my distance whenever he was with her. As for Saquan, he was barely paying attention to his girlfriend Lailah. They’d been arguing a lot for weeks and I didn’t know why because whenever I was with him, he didn’t talk about his problems the way Kedric did with me. I was paying so much attention to both of them that Keisha was starting to notice.

           “Why do you keep looking in those two directions?” she asked as we danced.

           “I’m just looking around,” I told her. “They really made this hotel ballroom look nice.”

           “Yeah, they did.” She threw her arms around my neck and asked, “Tamarri, if something was going on with you, you’d tell me about it, right?”

           “You know I would.”

           “And we made a pact to tell each other when we lose our virginities.”

           I looked into her eyes and lied, “I’m still a virgin, Keisha. I’ve only been kissed once by Todrick Rice while playing truth or dare at your house, remember?”

           “Yeah, but I know you and I feel like you’re keeping something from me.”

           “Something like what? Girl, you make it sound like a got a whole boyfriend out in the boondocks or something.”

           “Do you?”

           “Keisha, I am still a virgin just like you. You know there aren’t any gay boys at this school that are my type. And if any of them are on the DL, I wouldn’t know because I’ve never been approached by any.”

           I felt bad lying to my best friend but I would never put either Kedric or Saquan on blast like that. They were both going to big colleges to play football and basketball and I wasn’t going to put their futures in jeopardy. I cared too much about them, especially Kedric. I was definitely heartbroken that he was going to play basketball for Duke University which meant he’d remain on the east coast while I was moving over two thousand miles away.

           “I gotta go to the bathroom,” I told Keisha. “I’ll be right back.”

           “Alright,” she said as she backed away. “If I’m not still out here dancing, just go back to our table.”

           “Okay.” I left the dance floor and headed towards the bathroom. When I noticed that Kedric and Malaysia were sitting on one of the fancy hotel lounging seats, I tried to hurry to the bathroom.

                                              Kedric Matthews

           “Yo, Marri,” Kedric called out before I could get past them.

           I turned and smiled as I said to him, “Hey.”

           “Your suit looks fly as hell, my guy. Look at you, bruh. That’s wassup.” He stood up and shook my hand.

           “Yours is fly, too. And Malaysia, you look like a princess. Y’all look like a married couple wearing matching pink.”

           She giggled and said, “Aw, thank you, Tamarri. You’re so sweet.”

           “You about to use the bathroom?” Kedric asked me.

           “Yeah.”

           “I gotta go, too.” He turned to Malaysia and told her, “I’ll be right back, boo.”

           We headed to the bathroom together and the moment Kedric made sure no one was in there, he grabbed me and pulled me into a stall. He closed and locked the door before bending down to me and pressing his lips to mine. I was expecting both him and Saquan to ignore me but there I was in a stall French kissing one of them. When I felt his dick getting hard and pressing against my stomach, I got horny and my dick got hard.

           “We’re gonna get caught,” I told him.

           “You look so fuckin’ good, baby,” he said back. “I wanna do so many things to you. I wanna kiss you all night and rub your feet. I wanna eat your ass and make love to you. Damn, I’ve missed you, baby.”

           “I’ve missed you, too.”

           “I know the basketball season kept us from seein’ each other as much as we wanted to, but I thought about you all the time. You’re always on my mind and shit.”

           “I am?”

           “Yeah. I know you probably feel some type of way when I’m with Malaysia.”

           “She’s your girlfriend and I know you love her, so I don’t trip.”

           “I care about her but I don’t love her.” He touched my face as he told me, “Tamarri, I think I’m in love with you.”

           Before I could even react to what he told me, someone entered the bathroom and after a brief moment of silence, Saquan called out, “Tamarri, you in here?”

           “Yeah,” I replied. “I’m using the bathroom. I’ll be out in a second.”

           “Who is that?” Kedric asked me in a whisper.

           “Is somebody in the stall with you?” Saquan asked as he approached the stall.

           Kedric opened the door and told him, “Yeah nigga, I’m in the stall with him. What do you need him for?”

           “I knew I saw you come up in here with this nigga,” Saquan said angrily. “What the fuck is going on, Tamarri?”

           “Hold up nigga, don’t talk to him like that. He ain’t gotta answer shit for you, homie.”

           “Nigga, I’m not talkin’ to you!”

           “My dude, we can’t take this shit outside for real. I never could stand your bitch ass anyway!”

           “Somebody is going to walk in here and catch us,” I said to them as I stood in between them. “This is not the place.”

           “Has he been fuckin’ you?” Saquan asked me. “Be honest with me.”

           “Yes, but I don’t see why that would upset you. Saquan, we’re not serious. You never seem like you actually care about me.”

           “Man, whatever. I don’t need this shit right now. I’m out.” He turned and left the bathroom.

           “I thought I was the only guy you were with,” said Kedric. “Damn, you coulda told me you and Saquan were fuckin’. What you thought I couldn’t handle it?”

           Tears filled my eyes as I asked him, “Are you mad at me?”

           “Nah, I ain’t that mad. I mean, I should’ve been told you I wanted to be your boyfriend. Were you with me first or him?”

           “Him. But baby, I promise you it wasn’t serious.”

           “Listen, I know this shit is complicated because I’m not out but I do wanna be with you. And I wanna spend the night with you.”

           “You do?”

           “Yes. Now, stop all the cryin’ and give me a hug.” He wiped my tears and then hugged me. “I think most people are gonna get rooms in this hotel tonight. How about we get a suite at a hotel on the outskirts of town where none of them will be?”

           “I like the sound of that.”

           He reached into his back pocket and pulled out his wallet. He pulled his debit card from it and gave it to me. “Use that to get us a suite. Just hit me up once you get it and I’ll ditch Malaysia.”

           “Are you sure you want to do that?”

           “I’m sure.” He looked back to make sure no one was walking in before kissing my lips and telling me, “I love you, baby. And I’m down for whatever you want to do.”

           “I love you, too.”

           I was feeling a wide range of emotions as I watched him leave the bathroom. My head was spinning and I couldn’t believe what had happened. Finally, I took a piss and washed my hands before leaving the bathroom. On my way back into the ballroom, I spotted Saquan sitting with Lailah. She was yelling at him and he just looked like he wasn’t even connected to reality anymore. A photographer wanted to take a picture of them and while Lailah calmed down and smiled, Saquan still looked like he didn’t care.

                                             Saquan Hubbard

           I did feel bad but I didn’t understand why he was so upset about me and Kedric. Saquan never kissed me, he didn’t rim me before sex and he didn’t hold me after sex. I’d give him head and then he’d fuck me. We had a sex-only relationship and I thought he was cool with that. Maybe he was just mad because he discovered he wasn’t the only one I’d been with. Either way, I decided to ignore him and focus on having a good time with my friends.

           “I can’t believe Rebecca Shultz got prom queen,” my friend Michelle said as we all exited the hotel later that night.

           “I can’t either,” I agreed. “I voted for you, Michelle.”

           “Me, too,” said both Keisha and Tory at the same time.

           “I voted for Rebecca,” Jamal admitted. When we all looked at him, he started laughing and said, “I’m just playing. I voted for Michelle, too.”

           “I was about to say,” Michelle said while laughing. “Thanks y’all. I would’ve loved to be prom queen but it means the world to me that my closest friends voted for me.”

           “So, who wants to go to the after party at Maxi?” Keisha asked us.

           “I actually have to go,” I told them.

           Keisha’s eyes grew wide as she asked me, “Why?”

           “My mama needs me for something. She’s working an overnight shift at the hospital and she texted me asking me to come there. I’m gonna have to call it a night.”

           “Aw, well we’ll think of you as we party at the Maxi after party,” said Tory. He gave me a hug and then my other friends hugged me.

           “I want details if any of you hook up with guys tonight,” I told them as I watched them head over to the limo we all rode to the prom in.

           The moment they were in the limo, I got an Uber driver to come get me. As I waited for the driver to arrive, I looked up the hotels that were out by the interstate. The Hilton Garden Inn had some suites available so I booked one for the night and used Kedric’s debit card info to pay for it. When my Uber drive arrived, I got him to take me to Walgreens so that I could buy a bottle of Fleet and some KY Jelly. The moment I got to the hotel and checked in, I got a call from Saquan.

           “What do you want, Saquan?” I asked as I entered the suite with my keycard.

           “Where are you?” he asked on the other end.

           “I’m home. Why?”

           “Are you alone?”

           “Why, Saquan?”

           “Because I wanna see you. I’m sorry for how I reacted at the prom.”

           “Aren’t you with Lailah?”

           “No, I told her I didn’t feel good and I dropped her off at home. Baby, I wanna talk to you.”

           “Baby?” I laughed a little as I told him, “You are a trip. Every single time we’ve hooked up, you get your nut and you don’t say another word to me. I figured you share all of your affection with Lailah and save your lust for me. I’m mature enough to take that from you, Saquan, but I refuse to let you show your ass and get mad at me because you can’t handle me seeking something better.”

           “Baby, I’m sorry. There’s a lot of shit I don’t talk to you about because it’s my shit to handle. And if you wanted me to be more affectionate with you then why didn’t you just ask?”

           “You get in your moods and it’s hard to talk to you.”

           “Tamarri, that’s just how I am. I don’t talk when somethin’ is fuckin’ with me. I keep it inside.”

           “I feel like you’re saying all of this to me now because you know I’m with Kedric and he actually treats me right.”

           “Okay, that’s a part of it but I do care about you. You gave me your virginity last year and I’ve always felt that was enough to keep you feelin’ special about me. I get butterflies in my stomach every time I think about the night you gave me something so precious to you. We do only have sex but it’s some of the best sex I’ve ever had.”

           I laughed a little as I asked, “Better than with Lailah?”

           “A million times better. So, can I come over to your house and be more affectionate with you?”

           “No.”

           “Come on, Tamarri. I already…”

           “I’m actually not at home. I’m at the Hilton Garden Inn out by the interstate.”

           “Huh? Why are you all the way out there?”

           “Kedric wants to spend the night with me.”

           “Oh, so you want him? Alright, I understand.”

           “Saquan, I want both of you.”

           He was silent for a few seconds before asking, “What?”

           “I know this is gonna sound crazy, but I want to spend the night here in this hotel suite with both of you.”

           “A threesome?”

           “Okay, it would be more than just a threesome. Baby, this will most likely be the last time I have sex with either one of you for a very long time. Hell, it may be the last time period. If I have to let you both go after tonight, then we might as well make it a night to remember. So, what do you say?”

           “If he’s cool with it then I guess I’m cool with it. I’d rather share you than not spend a night with you at all.”

           “Aw, Saquan. How fast can you get here?”

           “Shit, I’m already in my car parked at a gas station. I can be there in like fifteen minutes.”

           “Great. Text me when you’re close and I’ll text you which suite I’m in. Right now, I need to call Kedric and tell him which hotel I’m at.”

           “Okay, I’ll see you when I get there.”

           “Okay.” I ended the call and then immediately called Kedric. I decided not to tell him about Saquan coming because I didn’t want him to change his mind about coming. As I took the bottle of Fleet into the bathroom, I did a prayer in my head that it would all work out.

           “This suite is nice as fuck,” Kedric said to me as he entered the suite. He stepped further into the room and when he noticed Saquan sitting on one of the beds, he looked at me and asked, “Marri, what’s goin’ on? Why the fuck is that nigga here?”

           “Man, chill,” Saquan said calmly as he stood up from the bed. “Just hear Tamarri out.”

           I closed the door before telling Kedric, “You already know how I feel about you but you don’t know how I feel about Saquan. Look, I love you both in different ways because you’re different guys. You have totally different personalities and different ways of going about things. And I’m sorry I didn’t each of you about the other. I’m really sorry about that.”

           “It’s cool, baby,” Kedric said with a smile. “It doesn’t change how I feel about you.”

           “Me either,” Saquan told me.

           “I already asked Saquan if he wanted to spend the night here with me and now I’m asking you, Kedric. If it’s not your thing then I understand but I want to at least spend one night with the both of you before we all go off to college in different parts of the country.”

           “You want to have sex with both of us?” Kedric asked.

           “Yes.”

           “Damn.” He looked over at Saquan and then back at me and said, “I’m down. I mean, as long as me and you still get to make love then it’s cool.”

           “We’re all gonna make love. That means I want you two to kiss and touch each other, too.”

           Saquan chuckled and said, “I don’t know about all that.”

           “I’ll have y’all kissing by the end of the night. Now come on, let’s go shower.”

           I was already in a hotel robe by that point so I just stood there and watched them undress. They both had sexy bodies but they were going out of their way to avoid looking at each other. My mouth watered the moment I saw their dicks swinging. Kedric’s dick was circumcised and he only kept a small patch of his pubic hair intact. Saquan’s dick was uncircumcised and his pubic hair was naturally bushy but it wasn’t out of control. When I took my robe off, both of their dicks got hard within seconds. That’s when I noticed Saquan’s dick was slightly longer than Kedric’s.

           “Lead the way, sexy,” Kedric told me.

           I led them into the bathroom and after I turned on the shower water, the three of us climbed in. For the first time since the night he took my virginity, Saquan kissed me like he meant it. While he was kissing my lips, Kedric began kissing the back of my neck while pushing his hard dick into my back. Saquan’s dick was pressed against my stomach. I felt like I was in heaven with them both kissing and touching me.

           “You can put lotion on my back, bruh?” Kedric asked Saquan while we were putting on lotion after the shower.

           “Yeah, I guess,” Saquan told him as he picked up the bottle and put some lotion on his hands.

           I swear watching them put lotion on each other’s backs turned me on like nothing else. If I was getting turned on by that then I was definitely going to lose my mind over seeing them kiss and do more. After we were all finished putting on lotion, we went over to one of the beds and climbed on. They were still being somewhat uptight so I climbed back off of the bed and left them on the bed together.

           “What you doin’?” Saquan asked me.

           “You two only touched each other when putting on lotion,” I told them. “If tonight is gonna be special, you’re gonna have to interact with each other more.”

           “I’m tryin’ to,” Kedric explained. “Saquan is the one bein’ a dick.”

           “Nigga suck my dick,” Saquan snapped at him.

           “I wish somebody would suck something up in here,” I cut in. “Saquan, you need to loosen up, baby. You said you were down for this.”

           “I am but I ain’t never kissed on a nigga like him. Shit, you’re the only dude I have kissed and I like that because you got them soft lips and sweet breath. I don’t wanna kiss some hot breath ass nigga.”

           “See, actin’ like a straight up bitch again,” Kedric said with a laugh.

           “Nigga, call me a bitch one more time.”

           I sighed loudly and told them, “If you two don’t stop the bullshit, I’m calling this night off. Clearly, y’all need to just kiss and get over it. I’m not getting back on the bed until you do.”

           They looked at each other for a few seconds and then moved closer to one another on the bed. Kedric wet his lips and Saquan did the same. Their heads moved in closer and closer to one another and before I knew it, they were locking lips. Their dicks went from soft to hard again instantly. At first, I thought they were just tolerating each other so that I would get back on the bed but then Kedric started playing with Saquan’s right nipple. Saquan responded by playing with Kedric’s left nipple.

           “Kedric can kiss good, can’t he?” I asked Saquan.

           He stopped kissing Kedric and answered, “He’s alright.”

           “Nigga, I’m better than alright,” Kedric bragged.

           Saquan rolled his eyes and then started licking and sucking on Kedric’s nipple. I climbed back onto the bed and wasted no time sucking both of their dicks while they kissed and played with each other’s nipples. They stopped paying attention to each other and turned their attention to me as I sucked their dicks more aggressively. As usual, Saquan jumped a little whenever I sucked him because the head of his dick was sensitive. When Kedric put one of his legs on top of Saquan’s leg and their feet touched, I hit a new level of horny. I rubbed my balls and further underneath to my asshole and both of their eyes lit up.

           “Turn around,” Kedric commanded me.

           “I was about to say the same thing,” Saquan said with a laugh.

           I turned around and put my face down with my ass up and they both began rimming me. I could feel both of their tongues and lips on my ass. One of them was licking from the area between my balls and ass up to my asshole, and the other was kissing and lightly biting my butt cheeks and then licking down to my asshole from the top of my ass crack. They had me shaking and clenching on the bed cover. My dick was so hard and precum was dripping from it like crazy.

           “His ass so good, bruh,” Kedric said to Saquan. “That shit good, right?”

           “Hell yeah,” Saquan agreed. “I shoulda been eatin’ this booty.” He smacked my ass hard and then shoved his tongue deep into my asshole.

           “Oh fuck,” I moaned out loud.

           “His ass feels better than pussy on my dick whenever we fuck,” Saquan told Kedric.

           Kedric laughed a little as he agreed, “Yep. Sometimes I’d go weeks without fuckin’ my girl just so I could build up a good nut to shoot off in this ass.”

           “Me, too, bruh. Me, too.”

           They licked my ass together for a while before taking turns making love to my ass with their lips and tongues separately. I would grab my dick every now and then but didn’t jackoff because I knew I’d cum if I did. They had me feeling so good when they were taking turns rimming me. I loved how wet and slippery they had my asshole. When I reached back to finger myself in between their licks, my finger slid in somewhat easily because of how wet they had me.

           “Damn, that shit is sexy,” Saquan said. “My dick is hard as fuck right now.”

           “Let me get it wet before you put it in him,” Kedric said to him.

           I turned around with the quickness to see Kedric sucking Saquan’s thick dick, getting it dripping wet with his saliva. Kedric had sucked me before but my dick was nowhere near the size of Saquan’s. I couldn’t believe how into it Kedric was.

           “Fuck, nigga,” Saquan moaned. “Suck that dick, boy.”

           It wasn’t long before I was down there, too, sharing Saquan’s pretty dick with Kedric. We took turns sucking his dick and licking his balls, and we kissed in between. Saquan was going crazy, especially whenever I deep throated him while Kedric licked his balls. I’d never seen him relax and moan that much. And when he grabbed the top of Kedric’s bushy hair, I damn near lost it.

           After a good while, we changed it up and while I sat on Kedric’s face, Saquan did his best to suck Kedric’s dick. I almost came twice as I gyrated on Kedric’s face while watching Saquan suck dick for the first time. These boys were taking me to a state of ecstasy I’d never experienced before, not even in my wildest dreams. When Saquan’s tongue began going below Kedric’s balls and Kedric spread his legs, I really lost it. I wasn’t expecting this boy to eat Kedric’s ass but there he was. Kedric’s dick got so hard that it stood straight up and stayed there.

           “Oh fuck, nigga!” Kedric called out as he spread his legs even more. “Yo, you win, nigga. Fuck!”

           “Eating ass twice for the first time,” I said to Saquan with a laugh. “You are progressing, baby.”

           He had Kedric running out of breath and shaking by the way he was sucking and licking on his tight pink asshole. I put my ass back on Kedric’s face and sucked his dick while Saquan rimmed him. If someone had taped us and put the video on the internet for sale, we would’ve made a ton of money. We were getting freaky like three pornstars up in that hotel suite.

           “Can you take both our dicks at the same time?” Kedric asked me.

           “Boy, hell no,” I said as I playfully hit him. “Y’all are not tearing up my walls.”

           “I gotta get up in it first,” said Saquan. “I’m too horny.”

           Kedric shook his head and said, “Nah, I got first dibs, bruh.”

           “You two aren’t gonna argue again, are you?” I asked them.

           They looked at one another for a little while before laughing and then kissing each other. They then shook hands and when Saquan nodded, Kedric smiled and nodded back. I don’t know what that meant but the next thing I knew, Kedric was reaching over and picking up the bottle of KY Jelly I’d bought that night. Saquan laid down and I began sucking his dick as Kedric put some lubricant on his dick and then some on his finger and fingered me to get my asshole lubed up. I was in the middle of deep throating Saquan when I felt the pain of Kedric’s nine-inch dick entering me. I was used to the shape of his dick so I remained relaxed and it helped.

           “He can take some dick, can’t he?” Saquan asked Kedric.

           “Hell yeah,” Kedric replied. “That ass is tight but he can relax and take the dick. It don’t hurt too much does it, baby? If so, I can slow down.”

           “No, you’re good, baby,” I told him. “You know I love when that big dick stretches me out.”

            I stuffed Saquan’s dick back into my mouth as I took about half of Kedric’s dick in my ass. Once I was used to his rhythm, I began throwing my ass back on his dick the way he liked it. Kedric loved when I threw my ass back on his dick and when I rode his dick. With Saquan, it was all about missionary because I think he liked the way I caressed his back while he was deep inside me. It’s crazy how it’s both fulfilling and draining to sexually please two different individuals.

           “Let my man Saquan get some of that ass, baby,” Kedric said to me as he pulled his dick out of me. He smacked my ass a couple of times before I climbed up onto Saquan’s body.

           I used the KY Jelly to lubricate Saquan’s dick and then I grabbed his dick to get the position right as I came down on it. He tensed up as my asshole wrapped around the head of his thick dick and slid down on it. It always took me a little time to get used to his dick because of how thick it was. I liked playing with his dick the most though because he was uncircumcised. I could tell things were different on that night by his facial expressions and his moans. He never let his emotions show like that during sex.

           “It’s better like this, isn’t it?” I asked him as I rode him faster.

           “Yeah, baby,” he answered. “Kiss me.”

           I kissed his lips for a little while because right after we began kissing, Kedric came over and made us both lick and suck on his dick. Every now and then, he’d bend down to share kisses with both of us. I rode Saquan faster and faster and his moans got louder and louder. Kedric must have gotten a little jealous because he didn’t let me ride Saquan for too much longer. He laid down next to Saquan and I climbed up on him and rode his dick. For the next fifteen minutes, I went back and forth between them. They then took turns fucking me missionary. I’d never been that sexually exhausted before. When it got to the point where I couldn’t take their big dicks anymore, I sat back and played with my sore ass and jacked off while they watched me and jacked each other off. They’d kiss every now and then but they were mainly eager to catch their nuts.

           “Yo, I’m gonna cum, nigga,” Saquan called out. “Keep tuggin’ on my shit, bruh! Ah!” Kedric jacked him off harder and faster as these big shots of cum shot out and landed all over his chest and abs.

           Seeing Saquan cum must have helped bring on Kedric’s orgasm because he began breathing heavier and moaned out, “Ooh, I’m gonna nut!” Saquan continued jacking him off as his dick skeeted over and over again, covering his chest with thick white cum. One shot went high and hit him in the face.

           Now that they’d cum all over themselves, they moved towards me. Saquan sucked on my left nipple and rubbed my sore asshole gently while Kedric sucked on my right nipple and massaged my right foot. It wasn’t long before I caught one of the most intense orgasms I’d ever experienced. I couldn’t remember the last time I skeeted cum from my dick, yet there I was shooting like crazy. I got cum all over my chest and neck and a little bit on my chin. They immediately began licking it up while kissing me and kissing each other.

           “Man, y’all are some freaks,” I told them with a laugh.

           They laughed and Saquan said, “You’re the one who just took two big dicks.”

           “I’m hungry as fuck,” said Kedric.

           “Me, too, bruh. There’s a Denny’s down the road. We can get some food to-go from there.”

           “First, we need to shower again,” I told them.

           We got up and showered before putting on our hotel robes. Since Saquan drove his car to the hotel while me and Kedric used Uber rides, he put back on his prom shirt, pants and shoes and headed out to get the food. While he was gone, I took advantage of the opportunity to talk to Kedric while I had him alone.

           “Tonight was crazy, right?” I asked him.

           “You can say that again, baby,” he said back with a laugh. “Shit, you got me to do some shit I never thought I’d do with anyone else other than you. I’m glad we did this though. It was fun.”

           “Are you gonna miss me when we go off to college?”

           “I’m gonna miss you like crazy, boo. I wish you weren’t goin’ off to college so far away. But I guess that’s just how it was meant to be.”

           “Yeah. So, I guess whenever we’re both in town at the same time, we can rekindle the flame.”

           “Me and you or you and Saquan?”

           “Both. Hell, I would like to be with both of you every time we do it.”

           He laughed again as he told me, “I’m gonna have to share you with him forever, huh?”

           “Pretty much.”

           “Well, that’s alright. I feel like y’all two are the only dudes I’ll ever be into like that.”

           “That’s right. Save all that good dick for me and our boyfriend.”

           He put his arm around me and said, “I still love your cute ass.”

           “I love you, too.”

           Saquan returned with the food a little while later. All I ate were a few pancakes because I didn’t wanna have to use the bathroom after taking so much dick. After we finished eating, we got naked again and climbed into the other bed together. We got all cuddled up under the covers and kissed each other goodnight. With both their arms around me and their feet warming mine, I fell deep into a good sleep. I wished that night would last forever and even though I knew it wouldn’t, I knew it would forever be a night I’d remember.

“DL Confession #6”

           I’d been with my girlfriend Demetria since high school but we’d only been serious for about three years. Now that she was pregnant with my son, I was ready to take it to the next step and ask her to marry me. However, there was something I’d never told her about myself and had no plans of telling her about. Although I hadn’t acted on it in years, I’m into dudes just as much as I’m into women. In high school, I fucked around with five of my basketball teammates and a few other dudes from our school on the low. I continued messing with dudes and other women until me and Demetria moved in together. That was when I decided to become faithful to her. I never thought someone so close to both of us would test my faithfulness.

           “Baby, I’m horny,” I said over the phone to Demetria. “You know I get morning wood like crazy. Can we have some phone sex or something?”

           She laughed and replied, “You know I’m not in the mood. I know it’s been tough but I’m not one of those women who get horny while pregnant. Once I hit three months, I just lost that feeling. My sister says it’ll come back though after I have the baby.”

           “Why you still at your sister’s anyway? Are you coming home or are you gonna stay there until you have the baby?”

           “I don’t know, Horace. These last few weeks have been miserable and my sister and my mama have been making me feel so much better.”

           I sighed and told her, “I love you and I wish you’d let me comfort you. You’re carrying my little boy.”

           “I know, baby. I’m sorry if it feels like I’m punishing you for something. Well, I actually am punishing your ass for getting me pregnant!” She laughed and I laughed, too. “But for real, I love you and I can’t wait to have this baby.”

           “I still wanna name him Tyler or Tyree.”

           “And I said one of those could be his middle name. His first name is gonna be Jabari.”

           “Yeah, we’ll see.”

           “So, what’s my brother been up to? He acts like he can’t call no damn body or respond to my text messages.”

           “He’s good.”

           “Are you sure he hasn’t been giving you any trouble? He hasn’t been smoking weed in the house, has he?”

           “Dante is cool, baby. I keep telling you that boy has changed. He got a job and stopped escorting. He’s helping pay the bills. Your brother is staying out of trouble this time.”

           “He better. Because I’m the last family member that’s willing to help him.” She yawned before saying, “I’m gonna go back to sleep. I’ll talk to you later, baby. I love you.”

           “I love you, too.” I ended the call and then climbed out of bed to go make myself a bowl of cereal in the kitchen. When I got in there and saw all of the Honey Nut Cheerios were gone, I called out, “Dante, can I have some of your Apple Jacks?”

           “Yeah, man,” he replied from his room.

           “Thanks.”

                                                    Me (Horace)

           I made myself a bowl and after adding milk, I went into the living room to watch TV while eating. Not long after I finished, I heard Dante talking on the phone with somebody. I could’ve sworn I heard him say something about weed so after taking my bowl back into the kitchen and putting in the sink, I went up the hall and stood outside his open door. I peeked in to see he was playing a videogame in his underwear while his phone was on the bed on speakerphone.
