an Italian Affair, Shannon Pearce, Beau to Beau books



Intro:
Business was good at the firm where Ken worked. It was so good, in fact, that the company had opened a branch in Italy, and Ken had been assigned the job of mentoring the new manager of the Italian interests. Roberto was a good fit for the company, and Ken soon began to look forward to his weeklong trips to Italy. He and Roberto had a good time together, both escaping their somewhat dull lives of nothing but the same every day. When in Italy, Ken felt very exotic and wanted to do exotic things. One night during one of Ken’s weeklong business trips, Roberto confides in Ken that he misses the excitement of group sex that he had often been a very willing part of years ago. Ken listens intently to every arousing detail of Roberto’s past escapades, and admits that what Roberto is telling him is making him more than just a little horny.

Excerpt:
Ken met Roberto several years ago when he had first flown to Italy on a business trip. It had been his first time in Italy, and Roberto had just joined the firm and was in charge of the Italian interests. Ken had made several trips to Italy after that, mentoring Robert, and working closely with him.

Ken had fallen in love with the beautiful country of Italy, its cities with their beautiful architecture, and the Italian countryside was breathtaking. Roberto had shown Ken a little more of his beloved country with every trip that Ken had made. Roberto had taken Ken to all the magnificent Italian sites, the great, the good, and the seamy.

***

Ken and Roberto were both married, with two kids each. Ken had two girls and Roberto had two boys. “When you come to the U.S., bring your wife and kids,” Ken had said every time he had flown to Italy. “Bring the family here, Ken,” Roberto had offered, with his usual hospitality. They both promised that they would, and both knew that they would not really do it.

Weeklong business trips to Italy for Ken, and business weekends for Roberto, were their only escape from their somewhat stagnating lives. They both loved their families, but when the two men were together, it was almost as if they were young again, and unencumbered.

***

On this night, Roberto started to really open up to Ken, and as Ken drank more wine, he talked freely about sex to Roberto, which was unlike him. They both realized that they were looking for other opportunities to screw around. “You know, Roberto, I always think about doing exotic stuff when I’m here in this exotic country of yours,” Ken admitted. “Yeah, like what?” he asked, grinning. “You may be surprised, but I’ve thought a lot about group sex, threesomes, that kind of stuff,” Ken admitted. “No way, not my sweet little American friend,” Roberto teased. “You don’t have it in you.” Ken lightly touched Roberto’s hand. “You might be surprised.”

Roberto grinned at Ken again. “It’s fun, Ken, a threesome. I did it a couple of times years ago, in college, the days of experimentation, don’t you know.” “Yeah, how was it?” “Well, it was with my best buddy and a girl. You really have to trust the people you do those kinds of things with, or at least trust one of them.” Ken just looked at him, waiting and wanting to hear more. “It was the best sex I ever had,” Roberto said, looking off into the distance. Ken was getting horny now, just imagining it.

And Now Us, by Shannon Pearce


A Beau to Beau Romance short story
Sensual and Sexual, with Passion, Pleasure, and Longing

INTRO:
Time spent with Mike had become Drew’s salvation from a life which he had been blackmailed into accepting. Their yearly trip to Mike’s parents’ estate was looked forward to by Drew more each year. This year, Mike’s parents had sold their beloved estate and this would be the last of Mike’s and Drew’s yearly trips together. Drew knew that if he were going to finally confide in his best friend the truth about his marriage and his true feelings, it was now or never.

EXCERPT:
Mike looked forward to his yearly trip with his best friend, Drew. It was beautiful in the mountains, and every year Mike vowed to move up north and live in his parents’ estate, even though they had long since moved south to be closer to him. Mike loved the old place, and his yearly trip reminded him of the beauty of his native Canada. Mike and Drew had been best friends for many years, and it was during these trips that they shared their innermost thoughts. The two of them would talk about everything during their trips to Canada, their work, their love lives, everything. They were as close as two men could be, but had never done anything sexually together. They hadn’t even thought about it, as far as each other knew.
******
They were that close, Mike and Drew, that they could somehow feel what the other was feeling. Mike could also feel the sadness in Drew and was determined to find out how it had gotten there. “So, what’s with you this year, Drew? It’s more than selling the estate. You know you can tell me anything, and you know that I’m not going to stop asking until I get an answer.” Drew closed his eyes and when he opened them again, Mike was sure he saw wetness in them. But as they drove, the sky quickly became dark with thick gray clouds which only became thicker and darker as they continued to drive. Tiny flakes of white began to hit the windshield, and then the flakes became larger and fell faster and very soon covered the road. Mike glanced over at Drew whose concern equaled his own. “I’d better concentrate on the road now, buddy, but you can be sure that we’ll talk later.” Mike put his hand on Drew’s thigh once more, and then tried to concentrate on the road. As the snow picked up and it became more difficult to see, Mike’s heavy truck began to swerve. “You doin’ okay, buddy?” Drew was just as concerned about Mike as Mike was about Drew.
******
Mike got out of bed and poured himself a glass of water. Drew awoke with the sound of the water hitting the ice. “What’s wrong, buddy?” “I’m okay, just thirsty. How are you, Drew? Are you okay?” “Sure, why do you ask that in the middle of the night?” Mike set the glass down and got back into bed, facing Drew. “You were snuggled up next to me and spooning me while you slept.” Drew was embarrassed by this, and looked away. He started to roll away from Mike, but Mike held onto his arm. “It’s okay, Drew. We’ve been friends a long time. Talk to me, Drew. What’s wrong at home?” Drew closed his eyes and a single tear slid down his cheek. “Everything’s wrong, Mike. Judy’s not coming back, and with good reason.” “What happened, Drew?” “We were never in love, Mike. We got married because Judy told her parents she was pregnant and she was, but it wasn’t mine. Judy was seeing a soldier from the local base who was much older than she. She was afraid to tell her parents and even more afraid to tell the father of her baby.” Mike listened to Drew’s story and stroked his arm. “I didn’t know, Drew. I’m sorry. But, how did this lead to you marrying Judy?” “Judy and I went to the prom, you know. I got drunk, really drunk, and told her something that I shouldn’t have, something that she used to blackmail me."
******
Mike rolled Drew onto his back and lay across him. He looked into Drew’s beautiful sad eyes, and then he looked at Drew’s lips, those lips he had always dreamed of kissing. He stared at those lips, wanting to taste them, devour them. He could feel Drew’s heart beat speed up. He slowly lowered his lips to meet Drew’s. He touched them lightly with his own. He felt Drew’s arms around him as he raised his mouth to meet Mike’s. Mike kissed Drew’s full luscious mouth, the lips that he had dreamed of kissing for so many years, and the mouth that he had wanted to feel accepting his own. Mike’s kisses were returned passionately by Drew as he held Mike’s head firmly. He did not want those lips to ever leave his. Their tongues met and struggled with each other to probe deeper into the mouth that was meant to be theirs. Mike forced his hungry mouth to leave Drew’s, panting to breathe. They looked at each other. Mike ran his hand along Drew’s outer thigh. Drew opened his legs for Mike, and pleaded with his eyes for Mike to touch him. Mike slid his hand along the shaft of Drew’s cock and then held it tightly in his hand.
