to the fingers brushing lightly against his cheek. When he stirred, Ray
drew his hand back; but it was already too late. His secret had finally
been discovered. His pulse quickening in surprise and fear, he brought his
hand down to the edge of Ben's bed. Paralyzed, he waited for his response.
 Streaks of light filtered through the window, breaking the darkness of
the room. And so, even in the shadows, Ben saw the shame that crossed
Ray's face.  "Please forgive me," Ray said.  For a long time, neither of
them spoke. Finally, Ben heard him whisper. "I'm so sorry," Ray said, as
he hastily rose from where he sat. Ben caught his hand before he could
turn away. "Don't go."	"Stay with me."  He tugged lightly at his hand,
pulling him near. Ray sat at the edge of his bed. Once again, he extended
his hand, tracing the contours of Ben's face, his lips, and finally, the
side of his neck.  Ben closed his eyes, letting Ray's trail of touch
excite him. As desire swelled within him, he brought the man's hand to his
lips, and gently kissed his palm and fingers.  Ray pulled his hand back,
letting it settle near Ben's head. Finally, he drew near and kissed him.
He cupped Ben's face, feeling the softness of his skin against his hands;
thinking of nothing else but Ben's assault on his senses. The smell of his
breath, the taste of his lips; all these made him hungry to have him.  Ben
shifted his body, leaning forward until he was able to kneel on the bed.
Ray followed his move. Their bodies touched, they continued to kiss.  Ben
brought his hands to Ray's side and tugged at his shirt until its edges
rose above his belly. Ray raised his hands above his head, and let Ben
pull the shirt above his head to remove it. Ben threw the shirt to the
floor and started to unbuckle his belt, but Ray whispered, "No." He
started kissing Ben once more, his hands settling on the small of his
back. With his hands supporting Ben, Ray lay him down on the bed and
started to undress him. When he had removed all of his clothing, Ray
started to kiss Ben deeply, his tongue darting inside his mouth. His hands
roamed around Ben's chest, letting each palm roam in lazy circles, over
and over. Ben sighed deeply and arched his back slightly, his pleasure
rising. He felt himself swell under his touch.	Ray lowered his head to
kiss Ben's chest, suckled and licked each nipple. Ben's sighs grew deeper,
more frequent. He felt Ben's fingers trail his back and up, finally
resting on his head. "Yes," Ben whispered.  Ben closed his eyes and
brought his hands downward to caress his flat stomach, as Ray brought
himself lower to taste him. Ray's hands settled on the inside of Ben's
thighs to spread them apart. Ben gasped as he felt the heat and warmth of
Ray's mouth. His hips rolled forward, up, down, around, as Ray's tongue
started to dart and lick. Ben's hands replicated the motion and rhythm of
Ray's tongue and fingers: slowly, quickly, harder, harder, quicker still.
With each movement, he felt himself quickly surrendering to the
inevitable. His hands flew, his hips rolled, he thrust himself against the
source of his excitement. Head rolling from side to side on the pillow,
lips pulled back in a primal clench, mouth then open for quick, hissing
intakes of breath as he approached orgasm. Quick, quicker still, until the
gasps gave way to moans that grew longer and louder with each second. 
Finally, pleasure descended into a restful calm, and Ben felt Ray's lips
brush lightly against his. He opened his eyes, and saw the love and
friendship he thought he had lost forever. Ben smiled.	 "I'll never leave
you again," Ray whispered. "I love you, Benny."  "And I love you, Ray,"
Ben said gently.   "Forever."  - THE END -     E-mail the author:
