After a not too shabby hand job, Adam led an incognito Kris to the Neiman Marcus down the road. Adam never shopped there because it was really expensive but Kris was impatient and wanted the least chance of being recognized. Adam just hoped they had a clearance section. They went to the bedding area and Adam was immediately drawn to a black and white zebra patterned set that was trimmed in purple and looked extremely expensive. A woman came over and explained it was part of their new collection of down bedding blah, blah, blah. Adam finally glanced at the price tag and saw it was on sale for $999.00.
Kris looked at the price tag, “Wow, you have expensive taste. It’s a little loud but seems very you. Let’s get it and go.”
Adam looked at Kris, “Are you kidding me? In the last week, you have tripled my bills and I was already in debt. Sorry, but I can’t just ‘get things and go’.”
Kris rolled his eyes, “If you are done with your crying, I was planning on buying it for you. Consider the bedding as part of the bed so all of it is your housewarming gift.”
Adam was hesitant to accept such a gift especially since he hadn’t even fully put out. “Kris, I can’t accept all this from you-“
“Relax, Lambert, I am not going to keep showering you with gifts. Take this and you can return the favor by making sure I am the only one besides you that uses them.”
“You already get that as part of our deal.”
Kris became annoyed, “Adam just get the fucking bedding already. You have five minutes to pick out your pattern so this nice lady will get everything together so we can go home.”
Adam hated when Kris spoke to him like he was a child and hated even more the way Kris referred to his apartment as “home”. Mostly the latter because it could never be, “You mean back to MY apartment. Your home is somewhere in the hills with your wife.”
Kris glared at him, “I am not going to keep repeating myself so for the last time, don’t talk about my wife. You know what? Do whatever the fuck you want with your bedding because you are right, I do have a home and if I wanted this kind of shit I can go there. Why do you always push my buttons?”
Adam didn’t really have an answer, “I don’t know. I guess I am just not used to the dynamics. I am usually the one that buys things and makes the decisions. Anyway, I am sorry for upsetting you.” Adam knew part of his ‘job’ was to be congenial so he would have to be the one to give. He was too reliant on the money not to cave even if Kris was an asshole.
Kris just took a deep breath and turned to the saleswoman, “We’ll take this one and whatever else we need for a new bed.”
The woman gathered their order and checked them out. The total came to $1100. Kris gave the woman a credit card. Adam almost warned Kris that his wife might notice such a large charge but then he stopped himself. It was obvious Kris did not appreciate Adam bringing up his wife at all. They took all the bedding to Adam’s place and set up the bed. Although, he had nothing else in the bedroom, the bed looked amazing. Kris laid down, “This is better than my bed at home.”
Adam laid down next to Kris, “Thank you this is a wonderful present. Are you spending the night?”
“No, I’ll head home in a bit. I also may be going away for a few days.” Kris ran his hands over Adam’s chest, “You know this bed would look a lot better if you were naked on it.”
Part of him resented Kris having the upper hand but the other part of him could appreciate a hot boy requesting he undress. Adam wondered if Kris was just trying to remind Adam his role or if he genuinely wanted him naked. Kris stared at him with lust-filled eyes as he started to undress, “Adam, have you ever worn lingerie?”
Adam frowned, “Like women’s clothes?” Adam really hoped ladies lingerie was not going to be one of Kris Allen’s kinks.
“No, like men’s stuff. Gay men don’t do that? To be honest lace teddies don’t do much for me.”
“Kris, it is your dime. If you want me to put on mesh underwear I can. Hell, I’ll even dance around if that is what you like.”
“Really? When I went to a gay club once they had male go-go dancers and I thought it was really hot.”
“Well, I may not be quite as buff as them but I am pretty sure I can shake it better.” Adam knew he was a sexy dancer and had danced enough for Brad not to be shy about it. Also, it would give him a sense of control especially if he could drive Kris Allen crazy.
Adam got his ipod and attached it to his portable mini speakers and started playing some club music. Adam started dancing and loved how Kris’ eyes popped every time he ran his hand over his cock or really gyrated his hips. Adam stripped down to his black briefs which were completely tented out with his own erection. Adam moved closer to Kris and took Kris hand. He ran it down his body and then released it. Kris kept his hand on Adam’s hips and looked at Adam a little unsure.
Adam smiled, “Go ahead and touch me however you like.”
Kris looked away and then back at Adam, “Can I use my mouth?”
Adam almost came at his words, “Kris, you can use anything you want. You don’t even realize how fucking sexy you are.”
“Hey, that should have been my line.” Kris tentatively kissed Adam’s abdomen. Adam wanted to be helpful and went to pull down his underwear but Kris stopped him, “Leave it. I’ll remove them when I’m ready.”
Adam whimpered a bit hoping Kris would not wait too long, “Kris, I am so close.”
“I know that is why I am delaying. How much do you want me to suck your cock?”
Where was the blushing virgin? Adam could not figure Kris out sexually or non-sexually for that matter. Adam reasoned the boy was probably just bi-polar or schizophrenic.
Two could play dirty, “Kris, I want your hot mouth on me. I want to feel your lips around my cock.”
Kris responded by mouthing Adam’s cock through his underwear. Adam could feel the heat and moisture which made him moan. “You win, please just do it. Kris, I am begging you to stop messing around and suck me.”
Kris laughed, “You have no self-control Lambert.”
Adam was about to protest but then Kris pulled down his underwear. Adam watched as Kris tentatively licked his cock. Kris looked up, “Tell me if I do it wrong.”
Adam moaned as Kris began sucking the tip and worked his way a little deeper. Kris was either a natural or lying about his inexperience. Adam knew he wasn’t going to last too long. He was also aware they were on his new bed, “You think you can swallow?”
“No, I don’t know what you have.”
Adam felt like a cold bucket of water was thrown in his face. He pushed Kris back, “True, I better just finish myself off. I wouldn’t want to give you my diseases.”
Adam jerked himself off making sure he came on his shirt and not his bed. Kris frowned, “Hey, that was pretty rude. You could have told me I wasn’t doing it right.”
“I am paid to be congenial, remember? So is it time for you to go?”
Kris’ mouth dropped open and then he became annoyed, “Lambert you are paid to be my lover so I say when it is time for me to go.” Kris got up and put on his shoes. Adam felt a little bad because Kris looked a little defeated, “OK, now it is time for me to go.”
Adam was really being a crappy whore, “Did you want me to get you off first?”
“No, it’s late. Besides, don’t you have a rehearsal tomorrow?”
“Yeah, at ten. Will you be there?”
“I don’t know. Katy-I may have other commitments. Well, I’ll see you around.”
Adam didn’t know why they always ended up fighting, “Kris, for the record. You give great head. Up until you insinuated I was a diseased whore, it was amazing.”
Kris looked down, “I am sorry. I didn’t mean for it to come out like that. I got nervous. Maybe it is a good idea if you get tested though.”
“Are you going to get tested too?”
“I am in a monogamous relationship. Anyway, if you get tested I’ll buy you the rest of your bedroom set. How is that for a good deal?”
Although Adam was insulted, Kris was right that it was a good deal. A trip to the clinic would cost about fifty bucks while is bedroom furniture would cost about a grand so Adam happily agreed before walking Kris to the door. Kris hesitated and then hugged him, “I’ll call you.”
“Goodnight, Kris.”
Adam watched Kris leave and shook his head. Other than Kris’ penchant for randomly saying mean things, being his whore wasn’t too bad. He looked around his new place and realized just how shitty his life had been. Adam went to bed and woke up for work. He went to the theater and met the other performers. Most of them seemed to be talented and mainstream. He liked a couple of the girls but most of the guys seemed to dislike him. Adam just concentrated on learning the show. It didn’t help that Jesse was a bit hostile towards him.
Adam just dealt with it as best he could. Luckily the director didn’t decide who would win each night. If that were the case Adam was pretty sure he’d be the first eliminated every night. Cale and Kris came in and spoke to everyone. Adam watched Kris talk to the group. He became distracted thinking how sexy he really was and remembering him sucking his cock. Adam heard everyone cheer and wondered what he missed. Megan, one of the girls, hit his arm, “While you were drooling over the pocket idol, he said the winner each night gets an extra $100 and the runner up gets $25.”
Kris asked to speak to Danny, one of the soulful singers and Adam. Adam waited while Danny met with Kris in the office. Adam went in after and hoped it wasn’t anything bad,
“Hi-“
“Adam, don’t fuck around in public. You don’t need to pretend to be that into me when we are in public. In fact, it would be better if you played it as cool as possible. Also, I am going out of town for a couple weeks. If you anything major comes up, you can call my cell. I may not answer but I will try and call you back as soon as I can.”
Adam became curious, “Where are you going?”
Kris shifted, “I am taking a trip with my wife. Even though I won’t be here, you agreed to be monogamous.”
“I remember the terms. Have a nice trip.” Adam plastered a smile on his face but really didn’t like the idea of Kris going away especially with the wife. That thought made Adam feel bad because he was basically thinking like the other man and hoping for Kris’ marriage to fail. Not good.
*~*
Adam had a real knack for hitting Kris’ buttons. It was amazing how he could make Kris feel so many things when he was usually a really even keeled guy. Kris felt bad for losing his anger and yelling at Adam but really Adam pushed. Kris was more than happy to buy him a ridiculously tacky bedding set. It was completely opposite Kris style but it really was so Adam. Now if the boy could just shut up and simply say thank you things would be easier.
They went back to Adam’s apartment and fooled around. Kris was in denial about his sexuality and had been for years. His physical reaction to seeing and touching Adam’s body was making it harder and harder to ignore. Kris lusted after Adam like he never had with Katy. He had been attracted to Katy and thought she was beautiful but he had never felt need or desire like he did with Adam. Kris also thought sucking a man’s cock might be the deal breaker since he generally didn’t like giving oral sex. He hated the taste and found it generally unpleasant. Once again, he was wrong. Sucking Adam’s cock was a turn on. Watching Adam lose control and beg was incredible. Having Adam push him away, not so good.
Kris felt bad that he had insulted Adam but really was he that out of line? The guy was a slut and had obviously fucked plenty of people. Plus, based on what he had seen that night at the club, he really didn’t discriminate much. It was totally reasonable to expect the guy to get tested. After all, he was a paying customer so he had a right to quality check the product. Kris decided to throw in the bedroom set to make Adam more agreeable. Plus, the boy did need a dresser.
Even though he had married his childhood sweetheart and didn’t believe in divorce, Kris was no idiot. He had plenty of money in separate accounts that Katy didn’t know about. He also had credit cards just in his name. It wasn’t that he was planning to live a double life but she tended to over spend and he needed to limit her access for her own sake. It just happened that now he needed that kind of privacy.
Kris felt a bit guilty cheating with Adam which is why he agreed to take Katy to France. She had been begging him for months and claimed she needed to go to the Cannes festival for her career. Kris ended up spending almost 8 days in France between Cannes and Paris. Kris hated spending so much time away from his music and the club and also, from Adam. He missed him and found himself day dreaming about him. Even scarier, he thought about Adam when he was with Katy which surprisingly improved their sexual relations. Kris justified the cheating by telling himself it was actually helping his marriage.
They headed back to LA on Wednesday afternoon. Kris insisted he had to check on the club after missing so much work. Kris went to Acoustic Dreams and found Cale and Jessie there alone.
“Where are all the performers?”
“We gave them the afternoon off since Friday is opening night. They are ready and saw no reason to push them more. All of them are incredibly talented and your boy managed not to fuck anything up yet.”
“He is not my boy and I bet the crowd will like him.”
Jessie shrugged, “He still doesn’t play that well with others and people don’t get bad reps for nothing. Anyway, we just finished up approving the programs so I am going to head out. I’ll see you all Friday afternoon.”
Jessie left and Kris turned to Cale, “What does he mean about Adam not playing well with others?”
Cale shrugged, “The guys don’t really like him. He makes no effort to hide his orientation and I think some of the guys aren’t used to that. Plus, all the girls in the cast fawn over Adam and I think that makes them jealous. I will say this for him, the boy can out sing them all. I just hope nothing goes majorly wrong. How was your trip?”
Kris shrugged, “Painful. I hate the French and I hate snooty artsy people so a French film festival was like being in hell.”
Cale laughed and then became serious, “I think it is good you spent some time with Katy. She may have felt a bit neglected and marriages take work. Eventually a shiny new toy fades and then you remember why you made certain decisions. Be careful, Kris.”
Kris looked at Cale, “What are you getting at?”
Cale looked at Kris, “Adam changed his address on his paperwork and I thought it was odd he could afford to move in an upscale apartment just a few blocks from the theater. I met his ex-boyfriend, Brad and he claimed poor Adam was in debt and practically homeless. Are you paying his rent?”
Kris was surprised both by Cale astuteness and directness. Knowing he was a crappy liar, Kris tried to skirt the truth, “Look I lent him some money until he gets on his feet. No big deal.”
“Kris, what if he doesn’t pay you back? You should never lend money to someone working for you. What if Katy finds out you gave him money?”
“It is my money. Cale, leave it alone. It is none of your business.”
“Fine but this is going to end badly. I just hope you are ready to deal with the consequences.”
Kris wasn’t even thinking about consequences. In fact, he was tuning Cale out and thinking about seeing Adam. Kris signed a few documents and then begged off saying he was feeling jet-legged. He went to Adam’s apartment and knocked on the door hoping to improve his night.
Adam answered and looked a little surprised, “Kris, I didn’t know you were back. Er…what a surprise.”
Kris could tell Adam was being weird and had not opened the door fully, “Do you have company?”
“Um…yeah. Can we meet tomorrow?”
Kris became furious. Adam was breaking their deal already. Kris pushed Adam, “What do you have another client here? Are you fucking someone, Lambert?”
“Kris, calm down. It’s-“ The door opened behind Adam and an older woman came behind Adam to see who was at the door, “Kris Allen?”
Kris just stared at the woman for a minute and then Adam spoke, “Mom, I told you Kris Allen was one of the producers of the play.”
She smiled, “I am Leila, Adam’s mother, he mentioned you were a nice guy and I am glad I have a chance to thank you for giving Adam a part in your production. He is very excited. We are just finishing up preparing dinner. Can you stay?”
Kris had every intention of saying no but he wanted to learn more about Adam. “I’d love to Mrs. Lambert. Are you sure it is no trouble?”
“Mom, I am sure Mr. Allen has better invites than our tortellini surprise.”
Kris could tell staying would annoy Adam which seemed like an added bonus, “Actually that is the best offer I’ve had all week.”
Kris walked past Adam into the apartment. He noticed Adam had some new editions in the apartment. He had added a sturdy dining set, couch and coffee table. The dining set would be gorgeous with a coat of varnish and the couch needed some pillows. Kris almost laughed at himself for the home decorating thoughts. He was really becoming too in touch with his feminine side. Kris sat down with Adam’s mother while Adam finished making dinner.
He liked Adam’s mother instantly and it was obvious she completely accepted her son. Kris wanted to know all about Adam and what he was like as a child. Kris found himself having a great time. Both the wine and conversation flowed easily. It was also nice seeing Adam relaxed and carefree. Best of all, he was too preoccupied to be pressing Kris’ buttons. Once again, Kris was convinced if they had met in other circumstances they could have been friends. His open, sometimes shocking manner reminded him a lot of Allison and he was sure she would totally love him.
Kris was pretty drunk by the time they finished desert. Leila must have noticed, “Kris, I hope you didn’t drive yourself here. I can give you a ride home.”
“It’s ok, I can just stay here and go home in the morning.”
Leila frowned a bit, “Are you sure you don’t have to go home? It is no trouble.”
Kris wanted to be with Adam even if he would get an earful from Katy the next day. Fuck it she came home late plenty of night and he just endured a week of hell for her. Surely he deserved a good night, “Really, Leila, its fine. I need to go to the theater early tomorrow so this is actually more convenient. You don’t mind, do you Adam?”
Adam smiled tightly, “Of course not. You can crash on the couch.”
Leila asked Adam to walk her out. Kris grabbed another glass of wine and thought about all the naughty things he wanted to do with Adam. Unfortunately, his knowledge of gay sex was a bit limited but he improvised as best he could. Adam returned, “How was your trip?”
“Fine. I like your Mom she is really cool and so informative. Do you think she liked me?”
“Why would you care what my mother thinks? Before you weird out, no, I didn’t tell her about our deal. She warned me not to misinterpret you being nice and she will definitely look up your marital status tonight.”
“Do you think she knows we fool around?”
“No, I am sure she thinks you would be out of my league.”
Kris tried not to laugh because that was how he felt about Adam. Kris felt like two grand a month was getting off cheap. Kris moved closer to Adam, “Did you miss me at all?”
“What’s not to miss? The snide comments, the condescending banter or the outright insults, hard to say what I missed most.”
Kris felt a bit slighted, “Really? I missed you a lot.”
Adam leaned down and then hesitated. He kissed Kris on the cheek, “Does that mean you are sober enough to fool around.”
Kris thought he was going to kiss him and was disappointed by the platonic gesture. Still wanting to keep the mood light, Kris quipped, “And drunk enough to be easy.”
Adam laughed and pulled Kris into the bedroom, “OK, what are you in the mood for? What do you want me to do?”
Kris wanted to be with Adam, “I want to you to be yourself and do what you would do if you took a cute guy home from the bar.”
“Kris, I am a top. I am not sure you will be into it.”
Kris rolled his eyes, “Lambert, you are being paid to please me so just try and make it good.”
“OK, are there any Allen rules you may have forgotten to tell me?”
Kris shook his head and waited for Adam to start. Adam seemed to be contemplating his next move which was making Kris feel awkward. He pushed Adam, “Lambert, you are supposed to be smoother than this. Is it that hard for you to picture me as a guy you would pick up? From what I saw, your standards really weren’t all that high.”
“Well, I usually draw the line at assholes.”
Kris became furious and went to hit Adam. Adam was surprisingly fast and blocked Kris. He seemed to go ballistic and actually threw Kris on the bed. Adam effectively pinned him down. Although Kris was pretty sure he could knock Adam off, he kind of liked being held down by him. Adam looked at Kris, “You have a real anger management issue. Guys I take home don’t try and kick my ass. In fact, they tend to be a bit more passive and let me take charge.”
“What are they passed out?”
Adam just shook his head. He shifted and Kris could feel Adam’s erection against his thigh. Kris was getting turned on himself, “Well, now that you got me here, what are you going to do?”
Adam smiled, “I am going to be myself and treat you like all the other thousand guys you think I take home.”
Kris pushed down his pang of jealousy and smiled, “Bring it on, tough guy.”
Adam laughed and then started kissing Kris’ neck. Kris wanted to feel Adam’s lips on his own, “Kiss me.”
“What about your rule-“
“I am changing that rule. Kiss me.”
Adam kissed him on the lips and Kris could feel it down to his toes. Adam was really an incredible kisser. Kris could feel Adam let go of his wrists as their kisses became more needy. Kris found himself pushing his erection up against Adam’s stomach looking to get some friction. Adam quickly removed both their clothes. Although they had both been undressed before, this was the first time they were completely naked against one of another. Kris wasn’t nervous and was definitely more turned on then anytime he had been with Katy. His primal instincts were takig over and all he could think about was getting some relief from his burning need.
Adam started kissing Kris down his body. Kris was looking forward to a blow job when he felt Adam’s tongue past his balls. Kris almost jumped when he felt moist heat near his entrance. It felt weird but so good. Kris decided to let Adam do whatever he wanted. Kris could feel Adam’s tongue pulsing in and out of his hole. Kris moaned and just opened his legs more to give Adam better access.
Adam moved forward to his cock. As good as the other thing felt, nothing was as good as Adam’s mouth around his cock. As Kris was enjoying the rhythm, he felt Adam’s fingers inside him. They were moving and Kris could feel himself being opened, “What are you doing down there?”
“Being myself and enjoying a beautiful man.”
Adam’s always seemed so genuine that Kris couldn’t help but fall for his charm. He knew Adam was playing a role but he was willing to buy into. Kris decided to just trust Adam to take care of him and enjoy the sensations. Feeling Adam’s fingers inside him was like nothing he had ever experienced before and added a sense of intimacy he hadn’t even felt with his wife.
Kris’ body felt on fire when Adam paused, “How far do you want to go, Kris? I want you so bad but I don’t want to scare you off.”
Kris wanted more, “Adam, I want to go all the way. I want to know once and for all if I am really gay.”
Adam frowned, “I am not sure whether or not you like being sodomized is the absolute indicator for being a homosexual. Kris, do you want to feel me in you?”
Kris hesitated but then took a deep breath, “Yeah, I do.”
Adam kissed him deeply, “I am going to take you when I am sure you are sure. I got another idea for tonight.”
Adam positioned himself on top so that their cocks were against one another and placed Kris hand around them. He put one hand around Kris’ hand and used the other to support himself and began pumping so that Kris could feel the friction against his cock. Even though Adam wasn’t in him, it still felt really good. Adam started kissing him passionately. Kris worried his lips would be a bit bruised but didn’t want to stop. Kris stiffened as they both came in a hot mess. Adam laughed, “I told you sex was very messy between men. I am glad we took off the comforter.”
Kris laughed but also felt vulnerable, “Adam, did you like that? I mean besides it being your job…was it good.”
Adam looked at Kris, “If things were different and you were just some guy at a bar, I’d totally put the moves on you. You are actually my type minus the wife, the fame, and the plaid.”
Kris smiled, “You are not my type but I’d totally let you hit on me in a bar. I don’t think I have ever had such a reaction to a person like I do to you. You make me want you so bad while at the same time piss me off enough to want to the point I can’t think straight. I finally understand why people say it is a thin line between love and hate.”
Adam looked at Kris, “You are paying me to avoid emotional involvement, why are you analyzing us? I can handle you being an asshole, using my body, even being manic but don’t fuck with my heart. That would be really cruel. I couldn’t take another man acting like he is into me and then breaking my heart.”
Kris stiffened when he realized he had voiced emotions he was definitely not supposed to be having, “Relax Lambert, I was just pointing out that as much as you annoy me on a regular basis the sex is making up for it. Don’t get all emo on me. You are being paid for sex and that’s it. Now, I need to shower and go home to my wife.”
Kris tried to ignore the hurt in Adam’s eyes he could see his words caused. He jumped in the shower and came out. Adam was pretending to be asleep. Kris hoped he was a better actor on the stage. Against his better judgment he went over and kissed Adam gently on the lips, “See you later, gorgeous.”
