The Earl's Son

As they disembarked from the plane at Heathrow, Kevin's heart jumped with joy. He was so excited and wanted to hug and kiss Julian and Robin but realised that had it not been for the terrible death of Robin's mother, he would not be here.

Julian wanted Robin to have a few more days off from work to get over the shock but he would not hear of it. He wanted to get back to rehearsals as soon as possible.

"Are you sure my love, we still have time and I can rehearse with the others" Julian said but Robin was adamant. He wanted to get his life back to normal as soon as he could otherwise he would just dwell on things. He'd done that when his dad died and he'd found it the best way even though he often thought of him as he would now think of his mum.

Julian had sent word to the other cast about what had happened and the reason why they'd gone to Sri Lanka at such short notice. In any event it was soon in the news so everyone was aware of the terrible tragedy. When they saw Robin the following morning, they didn't really know what to say apart from how sorry they were and how awful if must have been for him.

"Come on guys, we've got a play to put on in less than two weeks" Robin replied getting everyone down to work.

"He's a hard task master" one of the cast grinned, "but it's great to see him back".

The stage they had to play on was small so the guy designing the set had to use his ingenuity to produce what Julian wanted but he was good and with simple set changes that would be undertaken by the actors during the performance, the overall effect was perfect. After a few more dry runs, it was time to do a dress rehearsal so a few days before opening night, everyone got dressed into their costumes so that final adjustments could be made where necessary. Since Robin was only wearing a pair of boxer shorts most of the time, and at some points nothing at all, it didn't take him long to get ready!

The rehearsal went well and Julian was very happy. Everyone remembered their lines and cues and as he expected, Robin was brilliant. He had a wonderful knack of making whatever he did look so natural and as such put everyone else at ease even if they were nervous.

Finally the first night arrived. Despite Robin's apparent calm, underneath he always had first night nerves but he'd been told that was good so never worried about them. The only real change this time was the nudity. During the first half he only had to climb out of bed and swiftly slip on his boxer shorts but in the second half he had two periods when he spent almost five minutes stark naked and at one point standing at the front of the stage looking out into the audience. `Talk about full on' he chuckled to himself when he realised that the front row of the audience would be almost within touching distance of him. This was one of the delights of working in a small theatre that had limited seating!

However, he needn't have worried since by the time he got to that scene he had jumped out of bed naked so many times, and on several occasions made sure the audience had a good view, he was perfectly comfortable about showing off his all to a group of randy gays. In fact he rather enjoyed it!

When the play ended, the whole audience stood up and roared their approval, and when Robin made his bow there were whistles and more roars. Everybody had loved his performance and his body! Before the curtain call ended, Robin beckoned for Julian to come on stage as well to be applauded. Julian hated doing so but he knew it was necessary so stood beside his partner and held his hand.

Having got over the first night, it was time for the critics to come along. Most were from the gay press and without exception everyone praised Julian for his production and Robin in particular for his performance.

"Wow, brilliant" Julian commented when they'd read through all the reviews after breakfast one day, "Thanks to you Robin".

"And to your production" Robin replied pulling Julian into a hug.

"You were both brilliant" Kevin added, "and the guys loved seeing you in the buff Robin; I heard several comment as they were leaving".

"What were they saying then?" Julian asked feeling slightly jealous of others making comments about his lover although he knew they would and to some extent that was why he included the nudity in the production.

"Ooh, you know, what a gorgeous butt he had and a lovely cock" Kevin grinned, "Let's face it, he has hasn't he".

"Yes he has and that's why I love him so" Julian laughed.

"Have you two finished talking about my physical attributes?" Robin giggled, "And is that the only reason why you love me then, my bum and my cock".

"No, no" Julian squealed hugging Robin and feeling into his crotch, "You're lovely in all kinds of ways, especially in bed!"

"I think I'm going to get on with the washing up" Kevin laughed, "I'm beginning to sense some serious sex is about to take place".

With that, Kevin went off to the kitchen leaving Julian and Robin grinning at each other. "He's fitting in well isn't he?" Julian said once Kevin had gone.

"Yeah, he is, and it's rather nice having someone look after us don't you think but how do you see the future?"

Kevin had indeed fitted in very well and he enjoyed looking after his `two guys' as he called them. Ever since leaving home at fifteen he'd served others but he enjoyed doing so. He found it very satisfying and having gorgeous guys like Julian and Robin to look after was an added bonus, especially as they were both so nice to him and made him feel part of the family. The only problem was that the apartment wasn't really large enough to allow Julian and Robin their private space and give Kevin his. He ate with them, which was fine, but there were occasions when it would be nice just to be on their own and Julian was sure Kevin felt the same way. At present all he could do was go to his own bedroom which wasn't large enough to accommodate an easy chair and a television that easily. He also had his own laptop so had to use the dining table or have it on his lap.

"If we're happy with him staying with us" Julian said, "then I think we need to find a larger place so that he has his own sitting room as well as a bedroom; that way he can have a life of his own if he wants and us too".

"What leave here?" Robin replied somewhat disappointed since he loved the apartment.

Julian said it was just a thought and perhaps they should look around, "I'm sure we could find somewhere larger just as nice as here".

Over the next few weeks they did do just that but couldn't find anywhere locally they both really liked. To get the extra space they needed meant finding a house and neither really wanted to do that since they loved being at the top of an apartment block and not having a garden to worry about.

They were just about to start looking outside the immediate area when Julian found out that the apartment adjoining theirs was on the market. The guy who lived there was making a job move to Australia and was keen to have a quick sale. It wasn't as large as theirs since it had a smaller kitchen and living room but it had two good sized bedrooms and bathroom.

Julian organised for a builder to come in and see how the two apartments could be joined together to make one large one that would encompass the whole of the top floor. Each apartment also had its own wrap around balcony so having both would make a large outside space as well.

Having looked at the plans, the builder announced that since both hallways backed onto each other it was a simple job to break through. An archway would be made from one hallway to the other using a steel joist to hold the roof up. Having done so, there would be easy access between both parts and Kevin would have his own bedroom, sitting room and bathroom plus use of the small kitchen if he needed it.

"You can still eat with us if you want" Julian explained to Kevin, "but it gives you and us somewhere to do our own thing when we want; it also provides an additional guest bedroom should we need it".

Kevin gave a great big smile. He so wanted to stay with the two guys and when Julian had offered him the chance to be employed to look after them both on an ongoing basis, he was over the moon.

"Perfect" he exclaimed, "thank you so much" he added giving Julian and Robin a big hug and a kiss. "What are you going to do with the balcony area?" he then asked.

Julian and Robin looked at him quizzically. Neither had really thought about the outside area apart from buying some loungers and a table to use when it was warmth enough.

"It needs some shrubs and flowers" Kevin said.

"I'm useless when it comes to growing things" Robin laughed, "They always die within a week".

"Same here, that's why we weren't keen on a house that had a garden", Julian added.

"I'm good with plants" Robin grinned, "I looked after the garden at the house in Sri Lanka; I'd like to do the same for you here."

Julian said he was happy for Kevin to do whatever he liked so told him to come up with ideas for him and Robin to look at.

"A hot tub out there would be nice as well" Robin chuckled, "I wonder if that would be possible; we could sit naked in the tub and have a good soak after a hard day's work!"

"Now that is a brilliant idea" Julian grinned, "I'll get the builder to look into it".

By the December, the second apartment was theirs and the builder had done the necessary work to make the two properties into one. He'd also installed a hot tub on the balcony area of the smaller apartment so it was out of the way. They took Kevin out to choose what bedroom and living room furniture he wanted and within a few days he was moving into his new abode. He couldn't believe how lucky he'd been and kept on giving Julian and Robin hugs. Julian had also agreed his plans for planters for the balcony area which he was now in the process of filling with shrubs and winter plants.

"He's a happy guy" Robin commented one night when Kevin had left to go to his own rooms.

"Yep, he is and so am I" Julian replied putting his arm round Robin and feeling up and down his thigh.

Robin loved it when Julian did this and it always made him get an erection. Since he was wearing a pair of casual slacks, the bulge was soon evident.

"Mm, I think something else is happy too" Julian giggled taking the bulge into his hand and feeling it up and down.

Robin grinned and lay back on the sofa letting Julian undress him. It wasn't long before they were both naked and rubbing each other's naked bodies together. Suddenly Julian stood up and took hold of Robin's hand. He led him into the bedroom and they made passionate love. Their lovemaking seemed to get better and better as time went on so it was always every bit as good as the last time. When they'd satisfied each other's urge they lay back on the bed holding each other in their arms.

"Love you" Julian whispered.

"Love you too" Robin replied.

"You okay about spending Christmas with my folks again this year?"

"Of course"

"Just thought it might be difficult for you with your mum gone and all that"

Robin thought for a moment; yes he still missed her terribly knowing that he'd never see or speak to her again but life had to go on and Julian's parents made up for it and treated him like one of the family.

"I take it Kevin will come with us" Robin finally said having brushed away a tear.

"Mum has specifically invited him; think she took a fancy to young Kevin when she came to London shortly after we got back from Sri Lanka" he giggled.

"I trust she knows he's gay" Robin laughed.

"She does; think that's why she likes him!"

Julian had produced a pantomime for Christmas which would open a week before and go on into the New Year. He decided to do Aladdin again although this version included a gay Aladdin and other gay characters. The story was far from the norm but it was great fun to do and included lots of gay sexual innuendoes. Robin played Aladdin this time and somehow Julian had written into the script that in one scene he'd end up naked again. The Gene of the lamp grants a wish but it goes wrong and he ends up running across the stage stark naked!

As with the play, it went down a storm and everybody loved it. Julian and Robin had held more auditions and found some great young actors. Jamie who'd been his ex in the play was also in it and played the part of Widow Twankey. Robin loved working with Jamie and he was fabulous. Each night was fully booked for every performance so they decided to extend it by two weeks up to the end of January.

In between, the three of them managed to spend Christmas itself with Julian's parents in Oxfordshire. Kevin made himself useful helping with preparing food and clearing up so he fitted in well. Julian's mum mothered Robin and he was happy to let her do so. He really did feel he was part of the family and Julian's dad could see that his son was very much in love with him which made him happy despite the realisation that no grandchildren would be forthcoming. However, Alisha and her boyfriend Oliver looked as if they were staying together so he hoped that in due course they would get married and he would hear the patter of tiny feet!

Christmas was soon over and they made their way back to London. Robin was driving since he'd now passed his driving test and as Julian sat beside him he decided it was time to buy a larger car. He'd had his eye on the latest Jaguar.

"We need a bigger car" he commented, "three of us in a Mini Cooper is too tight".

"What, get rid of this?" Robin replied somewhat surprised since he thought Julian loved the car.

"No, we'll keep this and I'll buy a Jaguar"

"Wow, can you afford that?" Robin asked always amazed at the way Julian spent money.

"Of course we can" Julian laughed, "I know the theatre company is only breaking even at present but don't forget I also have a sizeable income from the estate that became mine when I reached eighteen.

Robin had never really understood Julian's finances or how it was organised. All he did know was that Julian's father was a very rich man. Julian had also made sure that his will included Robin in the event of his death but in due course he wanted to suggest they entered a Civil Partnership. He loved Robin so much and wanted them to be together for life but he'd been advised to hold off for the moment and give it a year or so before going the whole step so he'd not mentioned it just yet.

"So, what do you think about us buying a Jaguar? It will also mean that you can use the Mini Cooper if necessary."

"Yeah, fine by me if you can afford it and run two cars"

Julian chuckled and patted his love on his knee as he drove along. He'd speak to the garage first thing in the morning and make an appointment to go and give one a test drive.

"Can you drive a car Kevin?" Julian called into the back where poor Kevin was squashed into the back seat with bags round him because they wouldn't all go in the boot.

"Yeah I can" Kevin replied.

"Excellent, then we must arrange for you to get a British driving license then you can drive one of the cars as well"

"I could get a cap and be your chauffeur!" Kevin giggled.

"Is that all you'd wear?" Robin laughed, "Sounds good to me, a naked chauffeur!"

"You've got a one track mind" Julian laughed.

"Mm look who's talking" Robin chuckled thrusting a hand into Julian's crotch and squeezing the organ he found.

When they'd arrived home and unpacked, Julian suggested they all have a soak in the hot tub. They'd not really had much time to use it since it had been installed so once it had heated up they all stripped off and ran out of the door from Kevin's sitting room since that was the nearest to the tub and climbed into the warm water. Fortunately the weather was not too cold but the thrill of running naked outside was exhilarating.

Having had a good soak and also had the occasional grope, they ran back inside. Rather than get dressed again they each slipped on a robe and whilst Kevin made a meal, Julian and Robin looked at the latest Jaguar on the iPad.

"I love you so much" Robin said rubbing up close against Julian as he worked away on the iPad. Julian stopped what he was doing and pulled Robin into a close embrace.

"And I love you with all my heart; would you consider being my Civil Partner?"

He'd not intended raising the topic just yet but he could no longer hold himself back. Robin looked at him and with tears flowing nodded his agreement.

"I'm not suggesting we rush out and do so immediately since mum and dad will no doubt want to be involved in the planning but I've wanted to ask you for some time so we can look forward to doing it in the summer. Robin said he was happy to do that and kissed his lover passionately. As he did so he felt a stirring beneath his robe and it wasn't long before it was peeping through a gap. Julian took hold of it and grasped it tight. Robin gasped and felt Julian's. He too was hard!

"Oops, sorry" Kevin said a while later on coming into the room and seeing the two lovers in a close embrace and erections on show, "the meal is ready when you two can put each other down!"

"Come on over here", Julian replied laughing, "we want to give you a hug as well".

The mere thought of being hugged by either of these two gorgeous guys made his own organ react so it wasn't long before he too had an erection poking through his robe.

After their meal they had more fun on the sofa and Kevin ended up being sucked off by the other two. He was happy enough even though he would have loved either of them to have had full sex with him but he realised that was unlikely to happen since Robin and Julian were too much in love with each other.

Apart from doing all the chores in the apartment and looking after the other two, Kevin also helped out at the theatre on some occasions. He enjoyed assisting the actors with their change of costumes and anything else that needed doing. It was during the pantomime that he got to know Jamie rather well so every so often he would come round to the apartment and spend a night with Kevin. Neither envisaged a relationship as such but the sex was brilliant so they were more than happy!
