Tommy and Tanner, Chapter 80
The duplex was very much like two small three-bedroom starter homes joined at the garages. The "master bedroom" was a bit larger than the other two and had a three-quarter bath attached. The other bedrooms were situated on each side of a full bath which also functioned as a powder room. It, like the two bedrooms, was entered from a tiny u-shaped hall off the living room.
In addition, there was an eat-in kitchen and a long, narrow living room which could accommodate a table at one end for more formal dining, if desired. Both the front and back doors led into little entryways. The front had a coat closet and the back had stairs leading to the basement where the laundry and mechanicals were housed. The design was compact and well thought-out with no wasted space.
A teacher in-service day gave Tommy and Tanner a long weekend to work on their property in DeKalb. They wanted to be there when the new furnaces and air conditioners were installed, and it would give them a chance to assist Hank and Toby who were going to install the new vinyl siding while the autumn weather cooperated. They all agreed that their priority should be to make the place more energy efficient before winter. Inside work like painting could wait until later if necessary. However, when Tuck volunteered to go along, they knew Tim and he could get most of the painting done at the same time. Their practice run in painting the Sunday school rooms had honed their skills.
Immediately after taking possession of the property, Tommy and Tanner had painted the master bedroom. Tim had painted the adjoining bathroom and the main bath, except for small areas behind the stools which he did while the workmen had them up for installing new vinyl. By coordinating the work, Tim saved time and effort as well as the price of extra wax sealing rings.
After the carpet in the bedroom was laid as well, Melody had moved in. There was little in the room besides the queen sized bed and a chest of drawers. However, it looked great with the new curtains Melody's mother had sewn from fabric that coordinated with the bed cover and carpet. Accent pillows lent a decorator touch.
Despite the fact that the kitchen vinyl and the rest of the carpeting wouldn't be replaced until all the painting was done, Melody had been happy to move in. The dorm room she shared with Mindy had become nearly unbearable because of all the tension. In her own place, she found the peace and quiet conducive to concentrating on school work.
Tim moved in a few days after she did. He made the case that it would be simpler for them to drive to campus together each day and they would sleep better sharing the large new bed.
While it was true that the bed was much more comfortable, sharing it was conducive to activities that didn't involve sleep. He would have enjoyed getting laid every night, but he didn't pressure Melody because he knew she needed her rest in order to do well in her classes, and truth be told, so would he. There would be time for a marathon of lovemaking on their honeymoon when there were fewer stresses and distractions. Sometimes he took himself in hand, so to speak.
Tommy and Tanner arrived on Thursday night around 8:00 with Tuck in tow, having eaten supper on the road. Tim and Melody greeted them warmly as they showed off the work they'd already taken on in the little spare time they'd had. The boys admired the bedroom, pleased at how different it looked from what they'd seen the first day.
Hank and Toby arrived about an hour later. In order to save time and money, they were staying at the house too. Tuck would sleep on the futon, which was about the only piece of furniture in the living room, while Tommy and Tanner shared an air mattress in one bedroom and Hank and Toby another one in the other bedroom. No one had to ask where Tim would be sleeping.
After a big breakfast, the guys prepared to attack their jobs. As early as they could without disturbing the neighborhood, Hank, Toby, Tommy, and Tanner began stapling up the Tyvek house wrap and starting the siding process. They began with the back part and sided up to about where the hoses for the AC entered the house. Then they went to the front and worked on it until the furnace people came.
After the contractor had pumped down the cooling systems and removed the lines, the guys took the siding up several more feet in back. That would allow holes to be drilled for the new hoses and the venting pipes for the furnaces, thus avoiding having to piece around them. When that was done, they went back to working on the front.
By noon, the new heating and cooling systems had been installed and tested. The tenants in the other side were very happy to have it done. They'd had fairly high heating bills in the previous winter despite its being a mild one. A major selling point for the new furnaces was that they were 98% efficient, whereas the old ones were rated at about 70%.
Later in the afternoon, the front of the duplex was completely resided and the back was about a third done. One of the neighbors came over after getting home from work to check out the new look.
"Please tell the new owner that all of us in the neighborhood appreciate the improvements they're making! This place has needed work for a long time. I think Mr. and Mrs. Covington were getting too old and just couldn't keep it up. She talked like they didn't have the cash to hire contractors after her husband got too sick to do things himself."
"We're the new owners," Tanner said, inclining his head toward Tommy. "Our brother's getting married at Christmas and they'll be living on the left side. We may live in the other one in a year and a half."
"I'm amazed. You seem a bit young to be property owners, but if you can swing it, I say more power to you. Most kids your age these days seem to be playing video games or getting high."
"We all play some, but neither we nor our close buds are like that," Tanner insisted. "People need to give high school kids more credit. Some of us have a work ethic and aren't dopers."
"I'm pleased to hear that! If you're all this enterprising, I have a lot more hope for the future than I did 10 minutes ago. Great job! I'd better not waste your time talking. See you later."
Dinner consisted of Chinese carryout. Everyone liked it and Melody was happy not to have to play hostess to five guests. Since their meal plan at the dorms was paid through the semester, they took most of their meals there six days a week.
Last Sunday Melody had practiced making dinner at the duplex. Tim was smitten enough to think that what she had cooked was gourmet, but she knew she wasn't proficient in the kitchen. At least she felt she might in the bedroom. Tim seemed to think so!
Fortunately, the nearby Chinese restaurant served excellent cuisine at a moderate price. Tommy and Tanner picked up the tab since Hank and Toby were giving them a good price on their labor because of being housed and fed. It all worked out to everyone's advantage in the end.
Saturday turned out to be another perfect fall day. It was chilly enough for sweatshirts in the morning, but warmed enough to shed them before noon.
Hank was thoroughly pleased with the progress that had been made in the morning. He estimated they'd be completely finished by noon on Sunday. Since he'd contracted by the job instead of by the hour, the sooner this one was finished, the sooner he and Toby could get another one started. He hadn't really needed this job because he had others stacked up, but he hadn't told the guys. After all they'd done to make Toby and his ceremony and honeymoon perfect; he'd drop everything else if they needed him.
By the time the guys left on Sunday afternoon, the exterior was completely finished and a lot of progress had been made on the inside. Tim would finish the smallest bedroom the following week and do any touchup that might be needed. The guys would try to do some interior painting and maintenance for the tenants in the future, perhaps when they were on break.
Tommy and Tanner worked only two days at their duplex over Thanksgiving break. They went up on Sunday night, taking Andy and Devin with them. Tim and Melody were home in Middleton for the week, so the guys had the place to themselves. In the time they were there, they painted the living room, kitchen, and both bathrooms in the other unit. Their tenants had moved some of the furniture into the bedrooms to make it easier and that was much appreciated. Because their renters were considerate and seemed to be keeping the place cleaner than it was when they first inspected it, the boys decided not to raise the rent when the lease came up for renewal next August.
The rest of the break was spent on swimming practice and hanging out with friends. A big bunch of high school boys went out to the acreage on Tuesday for an overnight. Jared, Bobby, Tommy, Tanner, Andy, Devin, Michael, Lance, Tyler, Tuck, Jake, Damon, Austin, and Troy all came out. They were bound to have fun even though the water in the spring-fed pond would be too chilly for all but the hardiest of them.
The mercury climbed to a balmy 63 degrees in the afternoon and everyone joined in sunning nude in the clearing near the pond. As long as the sun was out and there was no breeze, it wasn't bad at all. Besides, the thrill of being naked in the great outdoors kept their blood pumping rapidly. Tommy and Tanner were the only ones who swam a bit, and they got teased about shrinkage when they got out to lie in the sun afterward.
Late in the afternoon, the sky began to cloud over and the temperature dropped like a rock. Then the guys went inside and lit the fireplace which warmed them up enough to keep from having to wear anything more than underwear.
They had a campfire-type meal, roasting hot dogs in the fireplace and supplementing with chips and salads they'd purchased at Dominick's before coming out. After clean up, they made s'mores. That provided the finishing touch.
When it came time to bed down, the four straight boys chose to sleep in the basement. They said they were doing it to keep from inhibiting their gay brothers, but truth be told, they were planning to have a circle jerk and didn't want to admit it.
The rest of the guys laid down mattresses on the floor of the attic, except for Austin and Troy. Everyone thought they needed the "honeymoon suite" for privacy since they were the newest couple and probably didn't have as much opportunity to be together, living in different `burbs. Both of them blushed as being singled out, but didn't object to having a private room with a lock on the door.
Despite being a few miles apart, Troy and Austin had done a number of things together over the summer. They had watched the Olympics, gone to movies, and even been to the acreage once before with a gang of the boys.
That had been an eye-opener for Troy. The two of them had been rather shy around one another until they'd been completely naked for more than 24 hours in the company of others.
In that period of time, their relationship had progressed from one of holding hands and kissing to an exchange of intimate fluids on a Saturday night in a tent. After playing chicken fight in the pond and participating in dancing naked around the campfire, Troy had suggested they try a few wrestling moves he'd seen on YouTube. His interest was really in making body contact with Austin, and Austin picked up on it very quickly. They had squirmed and rubbed their hardons between them until they came all over each other.
In the afterglow, they had kissed both lovingly and passionately. The latter mode had reignited the lust in their loins which didn't get quenched until they'd cum a second time. That time, they had participated in oral sex and knew they'd be doing a lot more of it in the future.
On this night, they wrestled for several minutes as soon as they locked the door. Austin grabbed Troy like he'd often done to distract opponents in a meet. It was an action that turned them both on, causing their briefs to bulge obscenely under the pressure of their throbbing cocks. A couple of minutes later, they helped one another shed the confining pieces of clothing.
Troy continued to play at wrestling, maneuvering his body around until his face was in Austin's crotch. He sniffed in an exaggerated manner, taking in the scent of sun-baked skin and fresh boy sweat. Then he swiped across the head of Austin's dick with his tongue. Needless to say, they stopped wrestling and turned to other forms of entertainment.
They spewed goodly quantities of jizz in each other's mouth and swallowed it greedily like nectar.
"Austin, I love you so much it scares me!"
"Why does it scare you?"
"I'm afraid I'll lose you. I know my parents will break us up if they find out and I don't know how I'll keep it a secret."
"My parents have us figured out and they're okay with it," Austin said.
"Oh shit! If they know, will they tell my `rents?"
"Nah, they'll keep our secret. I've already warned them. They even said you could move in with us if you had to."
"Seriously?"
"Yup!"
"That's so cool! Having a backup plan will help me sleep at night."
"So, do you want to sleep now?"
"Not unless you're too tired."
"Too tired for what?"
"Too tired for an encore..."
Troy answered by putting his right hand between Austin's legs and massaging his perineum.
Lee and Peter hosted Thanksgiving dinner at the acreage. They had several folding banquet tables and chairs stored in the basement to use when they rented it out for weddings, and these would serve to seat all their guests in relative comfort.
With the help of Jared and Bobby, they spent the bulk of Wednesday readying the cabin.
"If we buy any more stuff for this place, we're gonna need that garage soon!" Peter said as they carried the tables out the back door of the basement and up to the patio to bring them through the slider.
"Hank said they can get on it in the spring, or pour the slab at the end of the patio soon before the ground freezes and work on it as they can," Lee said. "If we'd have stuck with our original plan and put it on the end of the patio, they could have started already."
"I know, but we need that long space for weddings like we did for Hank and Toby. If the garage is beyond that, it will provide a wall like in a chapel. I think we should do that wall in natural stone like they suggested."
"Me too. Then they can extend a gabled roof over the whole area and we can screen it. It will be expensive, but I think the bookings will pay for it in one season. The boys have done a great job advertising it as a facility for commitment ceremonies."
When it came time to go back into town, Jared announced that he and Bobby would like to stay overnight again. They'd already cleared it with Bobby's parents, so Lee and Peter allowed it with no hesitation.
"Will you have enough to eat?" Peter asked.
"Didn't you see the leftovers in the fridge? It will be a repeat of last night's supper, but we like camp food," Jared grinned.
"Okay, but be careful that you don't gain a lot of weight that you'll need to cut soon."
"Yes, Daddy," Jared teased.
"Don't be a wise-ass or I'll have to tan your butt," Peter joked.
"Oh Daddy, you know how I like it when you spank me!"
"Lee, what are we going to do with this brat?"
"I guess we should take his pants off and paddle him since that's what he wants."
"Uh, you wouldn't seriously do that, would you?" Jared blanched.
"No, but be careful what you wish for," Lee warned. "If we were dirty old men, like that social worker downstate implied; you could find yourself in a sexual situation that you didn't plan!"
"I didn't mean it," a contrite Jared said quietly.
"Neither did I," Lee assured him, squeezing his shoulder. "I'm just saying...
After the men had gone, Bobby got a big grin on his face.
"Would you really like to get spanked?"
"Maybe."
"I think you need to be punished for mouthing off to your dads. Before you go to bed, I'm going to turn your bare ass over my lap and teach you some manners!"
"Cool!"
The boys shed their clothes before getting out the leftovers for an early supper. The roasted the rest of the hotdogs in the fireplace after making a quick run to replenish the supply of wood.
When they'd cleaned up after their meal, they sat together on the settle in front of the fireplace.
"This is almost like being colonial settlers," Bobby remarked.
"I'll bet they all had flat butts!" Jared exclaimed.
"Where did that observation come from?"
"Sitting on this ancient piece of furniture! Even with the pad Peter made for it, it's not that comfortable."
"It'll be even less comfortable after you get your spanking!"
"Okay, Daddy, I'm ready to receive my punishment for being a very bad boy," Jared said in a little-boy voice.
"Get your ass up here!" Bobby demanded, gruffly.
"Don't hurt me, Daddy!" Jared pleaded.
When Jared was settled over Bobby's lap, their dicks nestled together, making both of them chub up. Bobby raised his hand and brought it down with a resounding smack on Jared's bare flesh.
"Oh shit!" Jared cried out. "That hurt!"
"Keep still or you'll get double!" Bobby demanded as he swatted him again.
"Really, Bobby, that was too hard." Jared said with a catch in his voice.
"Damn! I didn't mean to hurt you. I thought you were playacting. Let me look at it. Damn, it IS red. Let me get some ice."
Bobby gently moved Jared to the floor and ran to the fridge to retrieve the ice. He wrapped it in a dishtowel and placed it on Jared's rump.
"Forgive me; I'll never do it again! I got carried away. Let me kiss it and make it better."
The feeling of Bobby's lips on Jared's butt made the latter forget his discomfort as all the blood in his body seemed to rush to his dick. When Bobby licked the area, it made Jared even hotter.
"Oh that feels so-o-o good," Jared cooed.
"Then this should feel even better," Bobby said just before spreading Jared's cheeks and running his tongue through his crack.
"Nnuh!" Jared gasped. "Shit! I'm gonna cum!"
Bobby turned him over and engulfed his throbbing cock seconds before it unloaded.
They kissed and cuddled for several minutes while Jared slowly descended to earth again.
"What made you do that?" he asked.
"I saw a picture of a guy on the Internet doing it to his boyfriend. They called it rimming and I've wanted to try it."
"Oh man! That was awesome. I'd take a beating if it ended like that!"
"No you won't! I may spank your butt again, but I'll be gentle. We can rim without anyone getting hurt."
"Okay. Now I'd like to try it on you..."
The entire Torrance household, Melody and her parents, the Bakers, Bobby and his parents, and Herbert and Dorothy were at the cabin for the Thanksgiving meal. Lee hadn't wanted to split any young couples up, so had made sure to include their parents in the invitation.
Everyone had coordinated with the men on what they would bring so there'd be no duplicates. Their thoughtfulness meant that the guys wouldn't have to do everything. However, Peter had insisted that Jennifer Baker not bring the turkey since she would be preparing a number of them for the clients of her catering business and would need her oven free.
Peter had put the bird in the oven several hours before the appointed time, and the whole cabin was awash with the aroma of roasted turkey. Having smelled it for some time, Bobby and Jared were chomping at the bit to get to it!
It turned out to be a splendid meal and everyone was feeling a bit stuffed by the end. Most of them took a stroll around the grounds after the kitchen had been cleaned up. Dorothy and Herbert sat bundled up on the patio for a while because they didn't want to negotiate the stairs to go down to the level of the back yard. After getting enough fresh air, they went back inside.
Since there was no TV in the cabin, they all visited and played games until later in the afternoon. Tommy, Tanner, and Tuck went out part of the time to play Frisbee with Brendon. He loved being out in the autumn air running through the fallen leaves as he caught the disc. He was actually pretty good at it as long as the boys didn't throw it too high. Even then, he could leap a fair distance into the air.
Around 3:00, they ate dessert. After that, most of them headed home. Peter, Lee, Jared, and Bobby were staying for the night.
Almost lost in the flurry of Thanksgiving and plans for the wedding, Tucker's 16th birthday arrived on Sunday, the 25th. Being born close to the national holiday and only a month before Christmas, Tuck was used to sharing his special day with lots of other activities. This year it seemed like everyone had forgotten it.
However, on Sunday when the family came home from church, there was his mother's Camry in the drive with a huge bow on top and a banner on the side saying, "Happy Birthday Tucker!" He beamed from ear to ear.
"Oh man! How come nobody told me anything? When I asked if I could maybe buy it, you all said that was out of the question. I thought I'd be looking for some junker to drive to school."
"It was out of the question," Tark grinned. "We wanted you to have it. Everyone in the family put money toward it. We went by the price the dealer would give us in trade. Mom picks up her new one from the dealer tomorrow immediately after you go to get your license. Then you can drive it home."
"This is so awesome!" Tuck exclaimed. "Can I take it for a spin if one of you goes with me?"
"We're all going out for brunch to celebrate your special day and Mom will ride with you. Tori and your brothers can stay in the van and ride with me. Try not to get any speeding tickets on the way."
Tuck suddenly looked more grown up. Again Teri was pleased that she had Tori and wouldn't be facing an empty nest for several more years.

In the news here recently, a freshman boy was severely beaten by others on the way home from his first day of high school. From the looks of him on the news, he's a smaller boy who wouldn't be able to ward off an attack. I'm saddened to hear such things go on in my small city. I hope the thugs get what's coming to them!
Here's a link to one of the stories about him: http://www.kcrg.com/news/local/Hes-Going-Back-To-Washington-Mother-of-Attacked-Teen-Talks-Of-Sons-Injuries--167270085.html
