It was already Sunday evening when Kind woke up. Realizing he was naked, he immediately covered himself with the duvet and sat up then scanned the room. "Did I just dream it or it actually happened?" He wondered when he noticed he hadn't occupied his old room but Wale's.
Slumping back to bed, he looked at the ceiling but barely saw it for his thoughts were focused on any pain he might have on his body, especially his back, but there was none. Shutting his eyes, he felt relieved he hadn't been intimate with his best friend.
"So it was all in my imagination, how saddening." He murmured, remembering his dream that had awoken him from his slumber. Him and Wale had made love the entire night. In his dream, Wale had been very touchy and passionate, pressing at his pleasure points, nudging, pushing and pulling. They'd both moaned with every feeling, the sound of their voices arousing the other until they were trapped in a repetitive cycle of lovemaking. '
I wonder how it really feels to experience that with the person you love...'
This dream had haunted Kind every night since he started feeling attracted to Wale, as if it were a daily reminder of what he can never have. Oftentimes, he'd daydream and had to deal with repercussions of having to face his erection at work and public places, a situation he was in presently.
Lifting the duvet, he smiled at the sight of his pulsating awoken erection. "When will you stop calling for a taken straight guy? Just give up already."
Getting out of bed, he stood up and stretched his body to ease his muscles. It felt good and that put him in a good mood. The room was silent and no sound was coming outside the room. He assumed Wale must have slept in the other room he used to use when they were living together before he moved out after Cherry had moved in.
Entering the bathroom, he took a cold shower to cool the heat that rapidly spread across his body. Everything in the room including Wale's body was further tempting him. It would be frustrating having to walk all day smelling like the guy who turned him on just by the scent of him.
Once done, he scanned the room for his clothes but there had been no sight of them. "What could have happened last night?" He held onto his head, groaning from the headache, a clear indication that he had had much to drink the previous night.
Proceeding to open Wale's wardrobe, Kind was became fully conscious of his predicament. More than half of wardrobe was filled with Cherry's clothes.
"When did I become so shameless?" He mumbled then scanned the room once more. "What had I done to end up sleeping in the same room Wale and Cherry had shared?"
Shaking his head violently, he forcefully pushed away thoughts and images in his mind of the two lovemaking. "No!" He shouted. 'I have to get out of here fast!'
The last thing Kind remembered from last night was him trying to convince his best friend to marry his long time girlfriend. They had been in the living room and it had hurt him talk of throwing Wale to someone else out of loyalty to Cherry. To think he'd ended up here. And naked!
Wale bursted in the room looking concerned, his appearance startling Kind who immediately grabbed the duvet off the bed to cover himself. "I need clothes now!"
The scene of a flustered Kind made Wale burst out hysterically and the fact that he was doing it while pointing at Kind made it even more funnier for him."Your clothes are in the drier. It might take two hours before it's done."
Seeing that his friend was still in a state of humiliation, Wale felt the need to press further. He walked to the wardrobe and took out a T-shirt together with a khaki short and handed them over to Kind. "We are both the same height but you're more on the buff side. I hope it fits. We are both guys so no need to be shy."
"Turn around. I can't have you comparing my dick size to yours dummy." Kind said begrudgingly. He had to keep on his act or he'd get discovered.
Wale obediently turned while giggling on. "We used to see each other naked all the time. What does it matter who has it bigger? Come to think of it, I've never had to pay attention until now but do not fret. I'll compare the sizes when you're not looking."
Kind didn't respond until he was done dressing up. He felt self-conscious, thinking to himself that he might have to be on the look out for Wale staring at his penis. "Can we go now, I'm hungry."
As usual, Wale was thoughtful. He had prepared a hangover meal for him after which he took some painkillers. They spoke for hours and for a while, he was reminded when they were in high school and college when they had decided to move in together. Wale was someone in good spirits, easy to talk to and that made him feel relaxed. He had missed this, spending time together when Cherry was not around. Something felt different though. Wale was more than relaxed and more confident today than normal.
"What happened last night? I was grumpy when I got here but I remember feeling very happy afterwards." Kind asked.
"Alcohol does that to everyone. You drank a lot last night, seven bottles to be exact."
Kind's jaw dropped. "Seven? Why didn't you stop?"
Wale stood up in response, went to the kitchen and came back with a glass of water then handed it to Kind. "You need to drink this. I fear for your liver."
'Weird. His mood changed all of a sudden.' Kind wondered. Suspicious of himself, Kind asked if he did something embarrassing the night of their merriment.
"K, you must never drink like that with anyone other than me otherwise I'll start calling you Bunny again."
"I'm going to assume we drunk and I went to sleep is that correct?" Kind asked taking a sip of water and putting the glass down. "And stop calling me that."
"We did more than just drink. I'm deeply hurt you don't remember K. You let your guard down so low but don't worry, I handled you with care and discretion." Wale looked serious when he spoke but his face revealed sarcasm. He was enjoying this and Kind had had it.
"Have you considered how upsetting it is to be constantly ridiculed? If you don't have something to say I'm leaving." Standing up, Kind walked to the kitchen and placed the glass inside the dishwasher then came back to the living room. "You can bring my clothes to work tomorrow. I'm leaving..."
"You kissed me!" Wale blurted out and watched as his declaration brought Kind to an immediate halt. He hadn't expected Kind to leave so soon fro ma mare tease. He had always been sarcastic towards him and they'd laugh it out and to think Kind was going to start avoiding him again broke him for that would mean he'd feel lonely again.
"You did other things too K like touching my chest, caressing my face, dragging me to the room. You also..." Wale's words where muffled when Kind rushed to him and covered his mouth.
"No more! Enough." Kind said, too embarrassed to listed to more. "I'm so sorry please, you must not misinterpret my actions. I was drunk."
The both stared at each other eye to eye, one breathing heavy and sweating profusely while the other sitted down and calm. The sound of Wale chuckling irritated Kind, though he wasn't surprised that his best friend found his suffering amusing.
Stepping back, Kind studied Wale closely, or perhaps he had been calm and composed because he already knew... Or was he disgusted by him?
'Cherry...!'
"You must have been backed up big time K. Get you someone to date." Wale could read what was going through his friends mind. He was planning an escape already. Resign, pack and go to another dimension, never to be found. Still that didn't stop him from irritating him some more "You're a good kisser."
"Agh! Shut up!" Kind reached for the nearest cushion and kept punching on it on top of Wale's face, who had put a barrier with his hands and was dying from laughter. "Think of your girlfriend when you say such things dummy!"
When both ran out of breath, they fell back on the couch, each trying to catch their breath. Wale was first to speak the silence. "Do you know how painful your punches are K? Remind me not to piss you off next time."
"Remind yourself, and I'm not backed up. I have a pretty active sex life."
Kind's response sent Wale sitting up straight. "You're dating someone?" He asked, feeling anxious and perplexed at the same time. "Who and for how long?"
"None of your business. Let us clean this place up before Cherry gets here and gives us a scolding." Kind casually replied as he piked up the fallen cushion. His assumption was Wale's reaction was a clear indication that nothing further seemed to have happened after the kiss, a kiss he'd have wanted to remember if it had happened. 'Maybe Wale was teasing me as he normally did. That had to be it. If I did kiss him, he would probably have kicked him out by now.'
"Cherry will be here tomorrow. She texted me she'll come here straight from work so you can spend the night again."
Kind could have sworn it sounded as if Wale was pleading with him to stay longer. Admittedly, he had had fun this weekend. Additionally, he was exhausted from all the alcohol he had last night and needed a reboot. Tomorrow would be Monday and they would go to work together as they used to when they had lived together. Indeed, he had missed this.
"Fine, but I'm taking my old room. I can't sleep on your bed. It's just weird thinking of you and Cherry there turning sheets and dripping sweat."
"You were fine last night when we slept together, why are you complain now?"
