Gay Erotic Stories

O’Hare Part Two

After leaving the family stall I moved over to a small area of the food court to get some much needed down time. The last guy had done me in and I needed to recuperate a bit. I got myself a Dr. Pepper and a burger and found a news paper. While relaxing and eating and reading the state news in USA today (I love reading about redneck Americans and the simple things that make news) I noticed a young man in dress whites sitting directly in front of me. I had not noticed him sit down but I was definitely taking notice to his uniform and well defined body. From my vantage point I was seated a little lower then he was, which allowed me to (without obviously doing so) stare directly at an able basket in his tight white uniform.

By the look on his face he was holding back huge emotion. The kind of look that says “I would really love to just ball my eyes out but, I am way to masculine for that”.

I finished my burger put my paper down and look at his face until he noticed my stare. Before he could get a word in I offered my services “penny for you thoughts” I said.

He smiled a childish smile still holding back a multitude of tears and spoke in the softest child like voice “thanks, but there is way to much going on in my head right now to put it into words” he replied “Too bad, I have to be here for at least another couple of hours and I was really hoping to strike up a conversation with a total stranger” I said.

He smiled a little and conceded by saying, “I guess a totally arbitrary point of view would be just what I need at this point so if you have the time why don’t you come over here and sit a while and maybe you can help me figure things out”.

I moved over to his table and asked if he would like to talk here or would he prefer to go the Members Lounge for the airline I was traveling on, where it would be more comfortable and much more private. I told him the look on his face told me that he had a lot on his mind and that this might provide him a more comfortable space for him to talk more freely. He agreed that this would be the better option but said that he was not aware that guests are welcome in the Members lounge. And I replied exactly this way, “Honey, for the amount of money I lay out on this airline every week on business trips they welcome my presence and will know me by name”. The honey thing was a dead giveaway to my “stake in life” but he ignored it and followed me to the Lounge. I opened the huge dark glass door to the Lounge and walked in. He followed close behind. As I entered the lovely little Asian girl behind the reception desk greeted me, “Michael how are you today, shall I get you your usual board room”.

“No, today I would like a little more comfort as my associate David (had not got his name at this point so I was just winging it) have much to discuss” I answered.

“Fine,” she said and continued “lounge number four is open” she motioned to my uniformed friend with a pen to sign in. He did and as we moved in the direction of number four she hurriedly asked with apology in her voice “shall I bring the usual today or would you like something else”. The apology part was she had forgotten to ask what I would like to drink before I left the desk, punishable by stiff reprimand from some of the other prick-ish members, but not myself.

I replied as we walked to the lounge “today I would like Grey Goose on the rocks with a twist of lime please, and ask them to hurry I have much to discuss and please, please no interruptions, none”. I turned to “David” and asked what he would be having he without thinking said “same but with a twist of orange, no ice and a double if you do not mind”.

“My pleasure” she replied and we continued to the lounge. All the while I was thinking she must have worked for Marriott at one time or other.

The Lounge was about the size of the average board room but adorned with over stuffed couches, a wet bar and a large well outfitted washroom. The bathroom had a huge steam shower and a very fancy commode and bidet with gold plated taps. The vanity top was the same as the floor, black granite and the sinks (three of them) were large white porcelain basins each with a different style of floral décor on the rim, in a word stunning! I did not notice until I partially closed the door, but tucked away in the corner of this opulence was a two man hot tub, full of water just waiting to absorb my sore muscles. Beside the tub were two huge white terry robes and a number of white bath sheets. The room was just the sort of thing you see in Architectural Digest. We both marveled at the prestige of the room and took a seat across from each other, him on a large couch me on an ottoman. Just as I was to open my mouth to talk, Justin my usual, porter walked in with a bottle of Grey Goose and a wide selection of citrus fruit and berries.

I was a little concerned about cost as in this lounge I was looking at least $300.00 for that bottle and at least $30.00 for the fruit. Justin saw the concern on my face and began to speak “such a pleasure Michael to see you again. It is my pleasure to inform you that with your flight status and the delays you and your guest, are facing all of this is on the house, your card will not be charged and we thank you for your patronage”.

“God what a relief” I thought. The company pays for most things but that expense would surely have come out of my pocket.

Justin asked us for our flight numbers and destinations as he would be happy to update us as to the status of our flights. We provided the information and off he went. It was only then that I found out where my friend was headed.

“San Antonio” I asked.

“Yes, I have enrolled in the Navy and that is where I am to begin my training” as he looks at his watch he continued “in two hours”.

“I see, part of this concern on your face is, you are going to be late for your first day at training” I stated.

He shook his head to the tune of “yes” and lowered his head.

“This cannot be the reason for all this upset, what else is going on, but before we get into that, what is your name” I asked?

“You had it right, my name is David, and how did you know that?” he asked.

“Lucky guess, besides you look like a David” I shook his hand and continued, “So David what has you on the brink of tears”.

At that very moment Justin knocked on the door and immediately entered the room.

“Sorry to interrupt but I have good news and bad, which would you like first” he said. “The bad” I said.

“Well it seems there is bad weather on the west coast as well as in Texas. Your flight to Singapore has been cancelled and re-scheduled until tomorrow and your flight to San Antonio has been cancelled and the soonest we can get you on a flight is 11pm tonight,” he stated.

“What time is it?” I asked.

“4:45,” chimed David and continued, “oh my God I am a dead man!"

“Not necessarily,” I said.

I dug out my wallet and reached for the phone. I dialed the number on a business card using the speaker phone. The phone on the other end started to ring and was picked up by a very eager lady. “Naval Academy, how may I direct your call,” she said.

“Brigadier General Tomlinson, please” I replied.

“May I ask who is calling” she said.

“Michael ______ of Tektronix Components” I replied.

“One moment sir” she said as the phone went blank.

“Michael, how are you. Damn you saved our asses on the last shipment. A hell of a big thank you for that one” he said and continued “what can I do for you”.

“General, I have in my presence a young recruit who was to arrive on the base today and it looks like because of the weather he will not be able to make it today. I just met him here in Chicago and he had no idea I was calling you. He is scared shitless and I thought I might be able to call in a favor for the last shipment, that when he does get there tomorrow that maybe a little leniency would be in order?” I asked.

“On your feet seamen!” he barked.

Immediately David stood up and saluted the phone.

“Michael I can promise you there will be punishment for this new recruit as he has had 3 weeks to get here and has chosen the very last day to arrive. But as a favor to you I will be lenient but not by much.” He stopped a moment and you could hear him pondering his next statement, “Recruit, you will treat this man with the utmost of respect, your candor and attitude will be to him as if it were to me. I will be contacting this man as to your servitude and actions in the very near future. Michael, enjoy the rest of your trip and I will see you next month when we go over the updates."

“At ease soldier!” he barked again.

David stepped to his left and put his arms behind his back. With that the phone went dead with a dial tone right after and conversation was over. I looked at David as he slumped in to the couch. He turned his gaze to me and with glazed eyes said, “I don’t know how I lucked out on this one but, thank you. So what does one do to thank some one for that?"

I looked him dead in the eyes, put my hand on his leg and said, “Well first you can start by kissing my ass!"
