Simon... Spellbound Read online

  I pondered how to bring up the subject as I waited for the lift to clunk into place at Seth’s floor. The doors opened and I stepped out. There, ahead of me, was the kid again, getting a bar of chocolate out of the vending machine. Joel or Jules or something... He was Harley’s kid brother according to River and he’d been hanging around all week. I nodded to him and he smiled back at me nervously.

  I decided it was time someone actually spoke to him. The poor kid was clearly crushing on him – but Seth wouldn’t even have the faintest idea who he was, never mind be in any fit state to want to get to know him. He’d still be devastated to have lost Siobhan... “Jules?”

  His head snapped my way and he gave me what could only be described as a hunted look, “Are you talking to me?” he asked.

  I nodded, “Yeah, you’re Harley’s brother, aren’t you?”

  He nodded, “Uh-huh. It’s Joel.”

  Right. Joel... “So, what are you doing here?”

  He sighed, “I just came to see if there was any change...”

  I frowned. He didn’t even know him... “You know he lost his girlfriend in the crash, don’t you?”

  He nodded, his face serious, “Of course I do.” He said, “I saw it all happen...”

  Oh, fuck. He wasn’t stalking him after all – he was traumatised. “Have you thought of uh, maybe talking to someone about this? Like a professional...?”

  He rolled his eyes, “I’m not traumatised, mate.” He said, “I’m just...” he trailed off, biting his lip.

  I sighed. Why were guys always in denial? “You might not think you are – but trauma comes in all shapes and sizes.”

  He nodded, “Yeah, maybe. I just... I like coming to see him. It makes me feel as if I might be making a difference, you know?”

  I nodded, “Yeah.” I agreed. After all, it was the reason I kept coming to see him too. But I knew him – this kid didn’t... and that was just plain weird.

  “What were you planning on saying to him when he wakes up?” I asked.

  His face went red, “I dunno.” He said, shuffling his feet and fiddling with the wrapper of his chocolate bar, “I hadn’t really thought that far ahead...”

  I smiled, “He’s not gonna stay in that coma forever, mate.” I said, “He was put under just to allow his skin to start healing.” But it had been a couple of weeks since they took him off the meds already. He couldn’t stay asleep forever... “He’ll be coming around on his own any day now.”

  He nodded, “I know.” He whispered, “But I won’t be able to come to see him once he’s awake. He doesn’t know me and like you said, he won’t want to.” He sighed miserably, “Anyway, I’d better go. I have a job interview this afternoon.”

  I raised my eyebrows, “Oh, where?”

  He sighed, “Some club in town. I don’t really want to go if I’m honest...”

  I frowned. My cousin was hiring at the moment but that place was a bit rough and Joel looked like a nice kid. “What will you be doing there?”

  “Dancing.” He said, “I’d rather dance at Studs but they’ve got enough dancers already according to Alfie...”

  I nodded thoughtfully. “Well, there might be a space in a couple of months – we’ve got all the bar staff we need now but I’m pretty sure a couple of the part time dancers are moving on soon – Roger’s got a full time job starting in a couple of weeks and Chase told me the other day that he’s going to take a year out and go travelling. I can put in a word with Rob for you if you’re really serious.”

  His jaw dropped, “Seriously?” He asked.

  I shrugged. Why not? “Sure.” I said, “I’ll call him later – now, shall we go and see Seth? Have you got a couple of minutes?”

  He nodded, “I’d like that.”

  We made our way down to his room. As soon as Joel was satisfied that he was still breathing, he left, leaving me to talk to Seth on my own. “That guy has the biggest crush on you mate – and he’s seriously cute too....”

  It wouldn’t make any difference of course. Seth thought himself straight – and he’d definitely been in love with Siobhan, no one doubted that for a second. Still. She wasn’t here anymore... and no one else thought he was straight.

  I got up after about half an hour. It was all well and good coming to see Seth, but it was as boring as fuck. He was going to be in here for a while yet and I guess once he was conscious it would be a different matter but right now... I had to go. Thinking about him losing Siobhan had made me realise that life was short – too short to waste time. I got up. I’d been hell bent on seeing Seth every day to the point of neglecting Bailey in favour of it. It was time that stopped. I needed to see him...

  Chapter 22 – Fitting right in...

  Bailey

  I looked up as I heard the door open and then closed again. No one appeared. I frowned, “Hello?” I called.

  A young guy with dark hair and what could only be described as a very pretty, very cheeky face appeared. His gaze was kind of intense as he looked at me. “Hi.” He said, “I’m here to see Rob?”

  I blinked, “Really?” I asked, “I’m not sure he’s here tonight.” I’d not long arrived and I’d seen no one but River and Thai who were playing pool and having a beer before their shift started.

  His face fell, “But I was sure he told me to come here...”

  I nodded, “I’m sure he probably did.” Rob often made plans and then promptly forgot all about them. He meant well but he was the most disorganised guy... “And I’m sure he’ll be around here somewhere.” I assured him, “Wanna drink or anything while we find him?”

  He shook his head, “I’m a total lightweight when it comes to drink.’ He admitted bashfully, “I’ll have a J2O though – apple and mango, please.”

  I grinned. What a cutie-pie, “Sure.” I said, “What are you gonna be doing?”

  His eyes lit up and his grin was really kind of blinding, “Dancing.” He gushed, “I fucking love dancing.”

  I nodded. I could see that in his lean body. He’d be a total hit with the punters. Hell, Jaime was a total hit and he only ever got up to dance to Beyoncé’s ‘All the single ladies’ when someone wanted a night off. Jaime was our cocktail barman – well, he was until Simon’s mate, Seth came back anyway and then I guess he’d be a little more fluid in his role. He was sound, was Jaime but there weren’t any vacancies for more dancers right now, I was sure of it...

  I shouted across to River and Thai, “Hey, guys,”

  They both looked over, “What?” River shouted back,

  “Is Rob here?”

  He nodded, “Is that Joel?” He put his cue down on the snooker table and came over, “Hey, man.” He beamed at Joel, “Nice to see you again.”

  Joel grinned. I smiled to myself. He was going to fit right in here...

  The door went again. I looked up. I was on tenterhooks, dying for Simon to arrive. Finally he was here. I smiled at him, “Hey, babe.” I said as he walked straight over to me, “How was it at the hospital?”

  Chapter 23 – Getting Bailey to myself...

  Simon

  I smiled back at his gorgeous face, “It was okay – as I was leaving the nurse said he’d been awake for short periods earlier in the day – and she reckons he might actually be properly awake tomorrow.”

  Joel spun around with his mouth slightly open. I’d spoken to Rob and I knew he’d be here tonight. Best that he heard it now than get to the hospital and have to turn right back around and leave. I nodded to him and he nodded back. He got it. No more visits to the hospital for him, from now on.

  Bailey didn’t miss the exchange – being Mr Eagle Eye. I smiled at him, “I’ll tell you later.” I said.

  *

  Finally the end of the evening rolled around. At last I’d have Bailey all to myself.

  It had been a really successful evening. Joel had seen Rob – albeit very briefly, and Rob had signed him up immediately – even though he wouldn’t be starting for a few weeks – after being inundat
ed with good words being put in from almost all of the rest of the staff.

  The punters were in a generous mood tonight and I had a pocketful of tips to spend on my beautiful boyfriend – since I was going to definitely take him out on a date as soon as I could. He needed to know that I was absolutely serious about us being together.

  “Ready to go?” I asked.

  Bailey smiled sleepily at me, “Yeah,” he said with a yawn, “I’m beat.”

  I grinned, “I’ve got a taxi waiting out there – and a double bed waiting for us at my new place.” I was so excited that I’d got my own room at Buzz’s flat.

  Bailey raised an eyebrow, “Well, that sounds interesting” He said, “But I’ve nothing to wear tomorrow if I come to yours.”

  The idea of him with nothing to wear was kind of giving me a boner but I tried to be an adult about it, “You can borrow a pair of boxers and some sweats.” I said. My heart was beating in my chest ten to the dozen. I really wanted to spend the night with him – properly – sleeping together all night, wrapped around each other like proper lovers.

  “Deal.” He said with a grin and then he reached his arms up around my neck and pulled me down for a kiss. I melted into him. God he was adorable.

  The taxi got us back in no time. The flat was in darkness, which meant that Buzz and Franz had already gone to bed. That was good. I neither needed nor wanted an audience...

  We got in, locked up and then I took Bailey’s hand and led him up the stairs to my room.

  Pushing him back up against my bedroom door, I dropped to my knees with a gruff, “Don’t move.” I was so fucking nervous. I’d only given him one blowjob before and it had been a bit of a rushed one on the flat roof of Studs out the back of the storeroom. Not exactly what you could ever call romantic...

  I flicked the button of his jeans and pulled them down his legs, along with his boxer shorts, freeing his cock. I looked up at him. There was nothing I wanted to do more than to suck that gorgeous, long, thick cock until he came all over me...

  He was staring back at me. His eyes were kind of glazed over with lust as I closed my lips around the head of his cock and started sucking. I stroked his balls with my fingertips with one hand as I gripped his hip with the other. I wanted him to know that I was one hundred per cent into guys – into him – and I didn’t want him going anywhere...

  I closed my eyes; his glorious scent surrounded my senses and I found myself getting lost in the feel of his hard cock in my mouth. It bumped against the back of my throat as he started to groan. I suppressed a smile. He was definitely getting into it. Whether he was aware that he was thrusting into my mouth or not, it was a total turn-on for me and I knew he was really enjoying it from the noises he was making and from the taste of him. He was oozing pre-come and I was pretty sure he was about to blow his load.

  “Oh, my God, Simon,” he half groaned, half whispered, his fingers gripping my hair and pulling a little painfully, “You’ve gotta stop. I’m gonna come!”

  Stop? Was he fucking kidding me? I wanted it. Letting out a bit of a growl, I sucked him deeper into my mouth and gave the underside of his cock a little more pressure with my tongue, eliciting another beautiful little moan from him. Sweet Jesus, this was the best sex I’d ever had and we hadn’t even got all of our clothes off yet...

  “Fuuuuuckkk!” As Bailey finally let go, I felt his hot streams of come filling my mouth. I swallowed everything down, working his cock through his orgasm until he went soft, “Oh, my God!” he breathed, gazing at me as if I’d just hung the moon.

  I pulled off his softening cock with a bit of a slurp and smiled goofily up at him, feeling a little as if I could hang the moon after getting that reaction from him.

  “Wow,” he murmured, looking back at me with a slightly shocked look on his face, “Are you okay?”

  I nodded, “Never been better.” I said, “Can I kiss you now?”

  He nodded. I got off my knees and leaned in to kiss him. I could still taste his come and I wasn’t sure he’d be into kissing me and being able to taste himself but it was hard to be concerned about that right now. I was hard as a rock and desperate for a little more from him. I totally went for it, stroking my tongue against his in almost the same way as I’d just been manipulating his cock.

  I didn’t need to be concerned – he totally groaned into the kiss and his hands started to explore my body making my heart thump even harder than it already was and sending happy little tingles all the way to my balls. Seconds later his hands had found what they were looking for and I felt his fingers wrap around my hard as a rock cock.

  “What do you want me to do about this?” he murmured, rubbing me in such away that my mind was so deliciously blank I forgot to answer. “Simon?” he whispered before nuzzling into my neck and tugging my cock a little harder, “What do you want?”

  I shrugged, “I don’t know – would you like to suck me?” I asked, “Or is there something else you’d prefer to do to me?”

  He smiled, “Are you, uh, suggesting that I top you?”

  I grinned and nodded, “We can do either – but yeah, I do prefer that.”

  “Oh, my God.” He breathed, “You want me to fuck you? You’re fucking awesome.”

  I chuckled, “Hell, yeah I do. So what’s it gonna be? Want to fuck? Or would you rather suck me off and we can do that another time?”

  His eyelids turned heavy with desire, “I would love to suck your cock dry,” He said, “But the idea of you and I rolling around on your bed, with my cock inside you – well, it’s just too much for me to pass up. Take me to bed, big guy.”

  Bailey

  As nerve-wracking as it was to top Simon – it also felt entirely natural for me to take the lead in bed. Simon was a bottom through and through. He loved that I was what he charmingly referred to me as a ‘bossy twink on top’ and I guess that summed me up pretty well.

  I did like bossing him around and I did love being on top. Not that I was against bottoming for him too but he really wasn’t all that bothered.

  He explained why he loved me topping him so much once we’d both come and were lying in each other’s arms, both of us sated and feeling all warm and fuzzy.

  “I love feeling your cock grazing my sweet spot. It’s absolutely mind-blowing and I know I’m gonna come. Even if you didn’t work my cock or kiss me or anything... I just fucking love it. I want to feel you inside me all of the fucking time.”

  I smiled, “Wow.” I said, “I had no idea.”

  He smiled shyly, “Is it weird for you?”

  I shook my head, “It’s pretty much perfection for me. Not many big guys want to be topped by twinks like me, believe me – I’m usually fighting them off – I’m not a fan of being pounded into a mattress – when you’re a lot smaller than your partner, it’s not great – and I have anxiety issues – and IBS...”

  He frowned, “IBS?” he asked.

  I nodded, “Irritable Bowel Syndrome.” I clarified. “As I’m sure you can imagine. It really wouldn’t be pretty if I had an attack while we were... well, you know...”

  His eyes widened comically as he got what I was on about, “Oh...” he said, “Yeah... wow. We’re totally compatible aren’t we?”

  I chuckled and grinned, “Totally, dude.” I agreed.

  Simon

  Our first time together was a little nerve-wracking for both of us – what with Bailey and his IBS and me feeling under pressure to be the perfect gay lover when I’d been in the closet for so long, it was a wonder we ever got past kissing each other – but we did – and it was perfect.

  Bailey really was everything I’d been looking for in a partner. Who knew I’d stumble across him when he was on a date with another guy?

  The sun was up, so it had to be around ten in the morning but when we’d worked into the wee hours, that was still pretty early.

  I yawned and stretched. I felt so good. Sure, my arse was tender from our love-making last night – but I’d happily go another round
this morning...

  I turned over to find a pair of bright eyes and a wide grin right in front of my face, “Hello, gorgeous.” He said, “Grab my cock and tell me if it’s hard enough for you?”

  Fuck. He was incredible... I reached my hand down and found his cock – hard for me and feeling absolutely perfect in my hand. I couldn’t help but start to work my hand up and down his shaft. He felt so good, like satin over steel...

  He groaned into my neck as I worked him, “Feels amazing,” he murmured.

  I leaned away from him slightly, “Can I suck you?” I whispered.

  He nodded, “You don’t ever have to ask me that – the answer will always be yes.”

  I grinned and shuffled myself down the bed...

  Chapter 24 – Talking to Seth...

  Simon

  “You never did tell me about that kid, Joel?” We were lying in bed and Bailey was threading his fingers through mine in that very Bailey way of his.

  I nodded, “Oh, yeah – sorry I totally forgot about him.” I chuckled, “I wonder why that was.”

  Bailey grinned, blushing a really cute shade of pink. “I couldn’t imagine what would make you forget.” He said with a giggle. God, he was adorable.

  “He’s been visiting Seth.” I said.

  Bailey looked at me blankly, “So...?”

  “So he doesn’t even know him.” I raised my eyebrows, “He’s Alfie’s husband’s brother...” I went on to explain all about the night of Seth’s accident and Joel’s involvement.

  “Wow.” Bailey breathed, “What’s he gonna do?”

  I grinned, “Well, with any luck he’s going to get the job, get to know Seth and they can live happily ever after.” I said with a chuckle, “God knows, Seth needs some happiness in his life and I can promise you – he might reckon he’s straight but he isn’t. He’s definitely bisexual. He’s gotten it on with guys before.”
