“Depends on which stories you are referring to,” Luther grinned.
“All the ones like last night. How you like to get drunk and get out of hand,” Andy asked.
“I’d like to say no, but the truth is, most of them are. Some have been embellished a bit as they were passed around, but I have had my share of getting a little too wild when I’m into a bottle of whiskey,” he replied with a laugh.
“Don’t you worry about something bad happening?” Andy asked.
“No, man. We only get one go around on this flying ball in the sky. If we don’t make the most of it, we end up lying in a grave not ever having really enjoyed the lives we had before they dug us a hole. I plan on going into mine without regretting that I didn’t do the things I dreamed of doing,” Luther told him.
“Just seems a bit risky is all,” Andy told him.
“Doesn’t it though?” he laughed.
“I just don’t know if I’m willing to take the kinds of risks you do,” Andy confided, stabbing a bite of eggs and forking them into his mouth.
“I think you and I are more alike than you know,” Luther said, his eyes catching Andy’s for one breathtaking moment. It was quickly shattered by the waitress returning to refill their coffee and check on their food. Luther continued as she stepped away, “You wouldn’t be a firefighter if you didn’t enjoy the element of danger involved in the job. No one gets into our line of work without being a bit of an adrenaline junkie and certainly no one excels at it like you do unless they are fully invested.”
Andy nodded, acknowledging that he was perhaps right. They were just finishing up their meal when both of their phones beeped at almost the same time. They took a quick look at them and then at each other just as the waitress dropped their check on the table.
“I got this,” Andy told him, dropping some cash on the table before they took off for the truck.
“I can’t believe we are getting called in on our off day,” Luther grumbled as he floored the truck to get to the fire station.
“Not like we have a choice,” Andy replied, not wanting to seem like a pussy, but terrified by how fast he was driving. He was used to it in the firetruck, but there was a lot more metal between him and the windshield in that thing than there was this one.
“Alright, let’s go brother,” Luther told him, already hopping out of the driver’s door as soon as they pulled into the parking lot. Andy jumped out and grabbed his gear bag from the back before heading into the station behind him.
“You two should have been here thirty minutes ago,” the captain barked at them.
“Sorry, Cap. We were down at the lake with the gang. It took us a while to get back,” Luther told him.
“Mortenson, Jones and Talbot down there too?” the captain asked.
“Sure were,” Luther told him.
“Well that explains why they are late too. Alright, the big truck has gone. I need you two to grab the squad truck and book it over to the state park. There are wildfires spreading out there and I’ve got a crew on the active blazes. I need the two of you to take the south path up the mountain and patrol for any new sparks that we need to be concerned with. You’ve got a lot of territory to cover, so you best take an overnight kit and check your radio batteries for a full charge. You should be able to make it to the old tower by nightfall and can hole up there until morning, then come back down the north path. I’ll get the truck moved to the other side so it will be there waiting for you,” he told them.
“All over it,” Andy replied, already headed to his locker to grab his pack. Luther was right beside him, pulling out his own kit. They were quickly headed out to the park in a matter of minutes. The south pass was a remote area and a long way to hike, especially with their gear.
“I feel like we drew the short straw,” Luther laughed as they hiked down the trail head to where it met the beginning of the south path. It was a steep incline up the mountain and wasn’t going to be any fun at all to climb.
“Lock and load,” Andy laughed, forging ahead up the path.
They had walked for hours and found nothing but the acrid smell of smoke wafting toward them from the active blazes being fought miles away. It was getting late and the tower was in sight, much to the relief of both of them. Though they were both in warm gear, it would start cooling down rapidly once the sun dropped. They needed to get to the fire tower to take advantage of what shelter it offered against the elements soon.
“Let’s get our humps in gear,” Luther yelled back as the sped into a fast paced trot to get to their destination. Andy caught up to him, arriving at the tower just as the sun was beginning to set. They quickly climbed the tower and took a look around from the higher elevation to see if they could see any blazes in the surrounding area. There were no signs of fire, not even the one that had been blazing with the other crew. Andy radioed in an all clear and was instructed to call it a night.
“Cap says to get some sleep. They will monitor from above until morning,” he told Luther, who nodded as he stripped down out of his gear, leaving only the thermals he was wearing underneath. Looking out over the horizon, he commented on the view.
“Look at that, would you? You just don’t get many sunsets like that, setting down behind the peaks and streaking out to either side,” he said.
“It is pretty incredible,” Andy said, turning to look at it as she stripped down to his underthings. The two men stood there looking at the sunset for a moment before Luther turned to look at him, his eyes roaming over his body, or so Andy thought.
“You know, real men where these mainly cotton thermal underwear, not those sleek Under Armour, jammies you are sporting newbie,” Luther teased.
“Don’t be hating on my sexy drawers,” Andy laughed. “I’m not quite sure how you can deem yourself real man material in that Grandpa Walton fashion you’re sporting.”
“Careful there, you young whippersnapper, I’ll have to bend you over my knee,” Luther told him. Andy stood looking at him, trying to decide if he was being flirtatious or just a little giddy from exhaustion.
“Seriously? I’m only maybe a year or two younger than you are,” Andy laughed, deciding it was better to miss an opportunity than to inadvertently out his sexual confusion to someone who might not accept it. It could definitely make things awkward at the station house.
“You keep it up and maybe I’ll skip bending you over my knee and just bend you over,” Luther told him this time locking eyes with him. There was no misinterpreting the meaning of what he was suggesting with comments like that, but Andy found that when faced with a very real possibility of being with another man, he was uncertain.
“I’m starving. Perhaps we should make some dinner,” Andy blurted out, reaching down to pull the small camp stove and meager food supply from his pack.
“Sounds good,” Luther told him quietly before pulling some light sticks from their gear and cracking them so that they ignited. He hung them on the hooks designed for them around the tower and proceeded to spread his gear on the makeshift cots kept in the tower to use them like a sheet. Opening an emergency blanket from this pack, he spread it over them and dropped his pack on one end to serve as a pillow.
Andy pulled the tin of hot water from over the camp stove and poured it over one of the ready to eat meals. They always tasted like crap, but he had learned to keep a small bottle of spices in his bag to help a little with the flavor. He prepared his food as Luther finished up with his bed making and sat the hot water back on the stove for him to use when he was done. Sitting against a side wall of the tower, he watched as Luther prepared his food and sat down to eat it.
“Not quite as good as breakfast was,” he grumbled.
“Not even close,” Andy agreed, feeling a little awkward still. He hurriedly finished his food and began getting his own cot ready as Luther cleared away the dinner remnants into a loose garbage bag from his pack. He hung the bag from one of the side hooks and stood looking over the side of the tower at the forest below.
“It’s so quiet here at night. I love being out in the woods when it’s dark. It feels like home. You can do anything you want out here and no one cares,” Luther said.
“Yes, it is rather peaceful,” Andy replied, joining him to look out over the tree tops below them.
“Looks like a wasted effort trekking all the way out here. Not so much as a puff of smoke. I can barely even smell the blaze they were working on over on the other side,” Luther said.
“I really appreciate your taking the time to hang out with me. I haven’t really had time to make any friends at the station,” Andy said.
“You think I took you out ot the lake because I wanted to help you make friends?” Luther asked.
“Yeah. Didn’t you?” Andy asked.
“Not exactly. In all honesty, I was only interested in you being my friend,” Luther told him, once again looking into his eyes as he had been doing earlier over breakfast before they were interrupted.
“I thought you already had plenty of friends,” Andy replied. He was fairly certain now that Luther was coming on to him, testing him to see if he was interested, but he didn’t want to be wrong and end up spending the nights out here in the middle of nowhere feeling uncomfortable if it wasn’t what it seemed. Not to mention, the walk of shame in the morning would seem endless off the top side of this mountain.
“Not friends with similar interests,” Luther replied.
Without waiting for a response, Luther pulled him closer and kissed him. Andy was immediately aroused by the way his hot, wet mouth covered his, searching him with his tongue. Their muscular bodies pressed against one another in the dark, cool air of the mountain around them. The kiss, initially fevered, lingered as Luther’s mouth softened against his. Finally, he pulled away and met his gaze.
“I was afraid I was just imagining that you were interested,” Andy said a little breathlessly.
“I was afraid I misread you. You are very hard to figure out,” Luther replied with a smile.
“I have to be honest. I’ve never done this before. I’ve always been with women, but it just never felt quite right and then, in recent years, I’ve found myself more and more interested in men,” Andy admitted.
“I’ll be gentle,” Luther said, his smile broadening. Any response Andy might have mustered was cut off by another fierce kiss. Their bodies quickly became intertwined, warming rapidly despite the cool night air. Andy could feel Luther’s massive erection pressing against his own as they began stripping away one another’s thermals to explore each other more fully. Their hands and mouths grazed each other’s skin, biting and sucking eagerly as they toured every delicious muscle.
Andy watched as Luther knelt down in front of him, taking his cock firmly in his hand and stroking it. It was incredible to feel Luther’s strong fingers pressing into his throbbing veins as he deftly manipulated his dick. A moan escaped Andy’s throat as the felt a wide tongue softly swirling around the fat mushroomed head. His hips almost involuntarily moved forward, offering him more, which Luther was more than happy to accept. Having the powerful mouth of a man wrapped around his thick tool was like nothing he had ever experienced.
“Yes. That feels good,” he groaned as Luther took all of him at once and began bouncing up and down the length of his rock hard erection. His hand slipped between his legs to massage his balls dragging some of his saliva with him as he slowing circled Andy’s asshole with a single finger. It felt like he might come already just from all that was happening. He could feel Luther slowly pushing the tip of his finger inside of him, just a little, opening him up as he continued to feast on his cock until his finger was fully inserted.
Andy moved his hips back and forth a little as he tried to adjust to the sensation of having Luther’s finger in his ass. He could feel him began to slip free of him and was afraid he had misunderstood why he was rocking a bit, but before he could tell him it was okay, he felt him pushing back inward, beginning to finger fuck him while he sucked him with added enthusiasm. Andy could tell that Luther was just as turned on as he was and it pushed him over the edge. Grabbing handfuls of his hair in his hands, he pushed forward, shooting a huge load of cum down his throat.
“You taste so good,” Luther told him as he stood, licking the bit of his cum that had escaped from his lips. “Now, let’s see how you feel.”
Luther reached for his hands, pulling them outward and turning him around so that he faced the low wall of the tower. He spread out Andy’s arms and placed them flat on the railing, pushing up against his bare bottom with his hard cock. Reaching between his legs, he wiped some of the cum still clinging to Andy’s cock and used it to lube him up.
“I don’t know if I can do this,” Andy said, suddenly feeling a sense of panic. He wanted it but how much was it going to hurt? Plus, there was no going back after this. Then again, he had already participated in oral, so he had crossed the line anyway. His thoughts ran rampant.
“You are just nervous because it is your first time. Trust me. Okay?” Luther said softly against his ear.
“Okay,” Andy replied, taking a deep breath and trying to relax.
His heart began pounding again as he felt the head of Luther’s cock pushing into him, parting his butt cheeks and meeting the rim of his tiny sphincter. He rubbed it back and forth, teasing him, letting the precum on the tip of his cock add to the moisture he had already placed there. Andy forgot about his fears and let himself enjoy the sensation. He was getting more and more turned on knowing that at any moment, Luther would be inside of him. He let out a groan as Luther slid just the tip of his cock inside him. He could feel his strong hands on his hips, holding him in place as he began to enter him, inch by inch, until he was buried almost fully inside of him.
