Chapter 2 - Alex

This week has been hard.  However, I’m not going to tell Chance that.  I don’t want to see him gloat about it, plus he may just try to do something to tempt me, so I’ll lose the bet.  There is no way that I’m losing this bet.  I’m not letting him drive my car around.  He won’t take care of my baby like I do.  Ugh….

I have three more weeks.  I can do this.

I walk into the bar and for once, the girls don’t immediately come to me.  I didn’t think that it would really work with just posting a few things on my social media, but it has.  I’ll have to admit that I’m happy though.  It would be so much harder if the girls were offering themselves to me left and right. 

I look back at our usual corner and smile.  Chance, Paul and Brandon are there already.  Chance raises his hand and motions for me to join them. 

I make my way to them.  I look at the bottle of beer on the table and raise an eyebrow.  “Did you think that I needed a beer that bad that you have one waiting for me?”  I sit down and glance around the table. 

Brandon chuckles and leans forward and pushes the bottle towards me.  “I thought you deserve a beer for making it one week without having sex with a girl.  Think of it as a reward.”

Well, I don’t really think of it as much of a reward.  I can think of better things that could be my reward, but I don’t bother arguing.  I pick up the bottle and take swig.  The cold beer rushes down my throat.  Oh, that feels good.

Chance leans towards me and huffs, “I’ll have to admit that I didn’t think you would last even a couple days, but you have managed a week.  However, you have three more weeks to go.  I still don’t think that you will last.”

Oh, I know that he doesn’t think that I’ll make it.  That is just one more reason why I’m going to do whatever I have to do to win this bet.  I’m going to prove him wrong.  Plus, I like the idea of him paying for my meals for a month. 

I smirk and lean back in my chair.  “Well, Chancey, you better get prepared to eat your words.  I have no intention of losing this bet.  No matter what.  Even if my hand becomes callused from using it all the time.”  I lift my hand and wave it back and forth.

He scrunches his noses.  “Eww..  Can you stop talking about you self-pleasuring yourself all the time.  You do remember that some of us aren’t into sex that much.”

I chuckle and take another swig of beer.  I point the bottle towards him and chime, “Just because you are a virgin doesn’t mean that I have to keep my thoughts and words pure.  Shit.  Sometimes you are worse than my mother.”

My feisty friend frowns and snorts, “I just don’t see why you have to talk about it all the time.”

Paul takes a sip of his beer and replies, “I’m sure that will all change when you finally find that special someone.”

Brandon nods his head.  “I agree.  When Kai gets here, I’m sure that he will agree that I used to be like you but look at me now.  I don’t have any problems showing my affection with my boyfriend.”

I roll my eyes.  That is because Brandon has turned into a sex bunny once he got a taste of it.  Fortunately, tonight, the two boyfriends are sitting side by side and on separate chairs, but I’m sure by the end of the night, the cute boy will be on Paul’s lap, and they will be playing with each other.  Hopefully with more people here, they will refrain from anything like that, but I guess we will have to wait and see.

Chance sighs.  “But you two are in love.  That makes a difference.”

I mentally shake my head.  This is why Chance needs to get laid.  He has some strange idea that sex is like some ultimate connection between people.  However, I beg to differ.  It is just sex.  Yes, it does make you feel good, but nothing more.  Just to make sure that it stays as being just sex, I never hook-up with the same girl twice. 

It is mostly for them.  Even after one night with me, they often seem to get attached to me, and I can’t stand clingy girls. 

Paul nods his head.  “Yes, we are.”  He leans towards his cute boyfriend and kisses his cheek. 

As I try to ignore the bunnies, I raise an eyebrow and smirk at Chance.  “Well, you never said that I couldn’t talk about sex.  The only thing that we agreed to for the bet is that I don’t have sex with a girl for a month.  So, sorry to disappoint you, but I’m going to talk about it, since I’m not going to get any.”

Someone from behind me asks, “Not going to get what?”

Before I can turn around, Brandon screams, “KAI!!!  DAVID!!!  YOU MADE IT!!!”  He catapults out of his chair and rushes past me.  Chance and I turn our head just in time to witness the cute bunny jumping on a dark-haired guy and wrapping his arms around the guy’s neck.

The guy chuckles and wraps his arms around the cute bunny.  “BRANDON!  It has only been a couple months since we have last seen each other.  We talk on the phone all the time.”

Jumping up and down with his arms still around the guy, Brandon chimes, “I know, but I miss seeing you, Kai.  You are my best friend.”

Cough..  Cough..

I turn my head back towards the noise, and I’m met with Paul frowning and if I may say, a little pissed.  I’m sure that he isn’t happy that his boyfriend is hugging someone else.

However, Brandon doesn’t seem to hear his boyfriend’s coughing, and I don’t want to get into a fight right away.  I turn back towards the cute bunny and his friends.  “Brandon, you may want to step away from Kai otherwise you are going to have to deal with a mad boyfriend.”

“Huh?”  Brandon turns his head towards us.  As soon as he sees Paul’s frown, he lets go of Kai and takes a small step back. 

I point my beer bottle towards the newcomer and ask, “Kai, right?”

He nods his head and then points to taller tan guy next to him.  “This is David.  The rest of our engineering friends will be coming soon.”

I nod my head.  “I’m Alex.”  I point my bottle towards my feisty friend.  “This is Chance.”  I then point the bottle towards my tall irritated friend.  “And this pissed off guy back here is Paul.  Brandon’s boyfriend.  Don’t worry, Brandon will get him purring in no time.”

The cute boy lowers his head slightly and blushes as he looks at his fuming boyfriend, who is glaring at Kai.  Brandon turns back towards the newcomers and softly mumbles, “Let’s sit down.”

The little bunny timidly walks to Paul and slides his chair right next to his boyfriend.  Brandon wraps his arms around Paul’s waist and snuggles up against him.  It doesn’t take long for Paul’s frown to slowly turn into a small smile as he kisses the top of his boyfriend’s head. 

Kai sits down next to Chance while David takes a seat beside Paul and across the table from me.  As the tan man sits down, he asks, “So, what isn’t Alex going to get?”

Oh, I forgot that they heard part of our conversation. 

With Brandon’s body still snuggled up tight against Paul’s body, the cute boy chimes, “Chance and Alex made a bet.  Chance bet Alex that Alex couldn’t go without having sex with a girl for a month.  Alex has lasted one week so far, and he has three more weeks to go.”

My feisty friend adds, “I’m glad that the girls aren’t swarming us like normal, but now I have to put up with other things.”

I smirk and nudge his arm.  “You are the one that wanted the bet, so you have to deal with the side effects of it.  Stop being a prune already and go find someone and get laid.  You desperately need it.”

He takes another gulp of beer and huffs, “I don’t need to get laid.  I’m fine the way I am.”

Paul looks me.  “Alex, stop it.  You know that he is waiting for the right person.”

I roll my eyes.  “That cherry is going to rot before he ever finds the right person.”

David raises an eyebrow and looks at my feisty friend.  Just as he opens his mouth, Chance snorts, “Stop talking about me.  I’m not the one who bet that they won’t have sex for a month.”

I chuckle and add, “with a girl.”

He rolls his eyes.  “Alex, you are straight, so it doesn’t matter.  To you, sex is always with a girl.”

I shrug my shoulders. “Yeah, but I like to keep it clear what the actual terms of the bet are.”

David looks at Chance and a small smirk dances across his face.  “So, if he had sex with a guy then he still wouldn’t have lost the bet.”

My friend waves his hand in front of himself.  “That would never happen.  Alex is as straight as a pole.”

Paul nods his head.  “Yeah.  That isn’t even an option.  That would never happen.”

I look across the table at David and wink.  “Big b**bs and p*ssies all the way for me.”

The tan man’s smirk slowly grows as he continues to stare at me. 

I turn my attention towards the other newcomer and ask, “So, Kai, how long have you been friends with Brandon?” 

I notice that he has his eyes on my feisty dimpled friend.  Well, this is interesting.

Kai pulls his eyes off of Chance and looks at me.  “We have been friends since we were babies.  Our parents are good friends, and our families do things together all the time.”

Brandon happily chimes, “Our parents even think of each of us as their other son.”

Out of the corner of my eye, I catch Chance beginning to frown.  However, before I can ask what is wrong a gorgeous girl with curves in just the right places and long brown hair walks up to the table.  Oh, now I know why he is getting irritated.

She leans on the table in between David and me and leans forward so her large breasts practically spill out of her top.  In a sultry voice, she says, “You guys look lonely.  I was wondering if I could join your table.”

Well, I may not be playing around for a month, but that doesn’t mean that I can’t use my charm.  I flash her my brilliant smile and lightly run my finger up her arm.  “Well, I’ve got plans tonight, but maybe one of the others needs some company.”  I wink at her and then motion my head towards David and then Kai.

David chuckles and shakes his head.  “I have plans with someone else for tonight.  Sorry.”

Kai quickly adds, “Me too.  Sorry.”

I slide my finger back up her arm and smile.  “Come back in a month and I may be available.”  I wink at her again.

However, she doesn’t seem to want to give up so fast.  She doesn’t move right away and continues to glance around the table.  She stops her eyes on Chance and smiles.

However, he meets her smile with a glare.  “I don’t do one-nightstands.  I want a relationship, and I’m not looking for one of those right now.”

I can’t control myself as I add, “Plus, you’re not the right gender.  He prefers guys.”

My feisty friend’s mouth instantly drops open, and he turns and glares at me. 

I smile and shrug my shoulders.  I’m not telling a lie.  I can’t help it if Chance won’t admit that he is gay.  Maybe I’ll just push him along a little further.

The girl then turns her attention of Paul and before she can say anything, Brandon hisses, “He’s mine.”  He turns and pulls my tall friend into a kiss and damn, I think he is going to suck Paul’s lips right off his face.

I tap the girl’s arm.  “In a month, come back and maybe I’ll be available.”

Reluctantly, the girl nods her head and without saying anything she turns and walks away.  As soon as she disappears into the crowd, Chance slaps my arm.

I flinch and rub my arm.  “What was that for?”

With clinched teeth, Chance hisses, “Why did you tell her that I’m gay?  I have never said that I’m gay!”

Paul takes a drink of his beer and replies, “Well, you have never said it, but we already know it.  We are your friends, and we know you really well.  Do you think that you can pretend to be straight around us, and we wouldn’t know?  Oh, are you forgetting that Brandon and I are gay?”

Chance grunts and slouches back in his chair.  However, he doesn’t say anything.
