Chapter 27 Noah
Noah
“Well, why won’t you just throw yourself at him?”
“I can’t do that, Noah, please!”
“What happened to women’s lib and all that good shit?”
“I don’t know, I just couldn’t.”
“You sound like a prude, Crystal. Just walk into his room in the middle of the night, stick your head under the covers, take his dick out, and put it in your mouth!”
“You’re disgusting, Noah! I am not going to do that.”
“Well, it always works for me and Zhan.”
“Maybe he just doesn’t find me attractive.”
“What’s Geneva say about all this?”
“I haven’t breathed a word to Geneva. We’re supposed to both be celibate, so I don’t want to get her off track, you know.”
“Uh-huh, so you’re doing the buddy-system thing, each-one-helps-the-other type of shit, right?”
“Yeah, something like that. So I really hope these conversations remain between the two of us, okay?”
“Of course they will, honey. Don’t worry.”
“Okay, gotta run.”
“Me too.”
“Kisses.”
“Kisses.”
I hung up the phone and was about to trudge into the kitchen to heat up some leftover Thai food when I heard the elevator in the hallway kick on.
I don’t know why I did it, because I’m not a nosy type of man, but I sauntered my behind right over to my front door and peered out through the peephole.
The elevator door was just opening and who did I see stepping out but Aldo and two very good-looking young men.
“Humph!” I said out loud, and then threw my hand over my mouth. It was early afternoon. I knew Aldo and Ray-Ray entertained a lot, but so early in the day and in the middle of the week?
I watched until they disappeared from sight. The apartment door opened and then closed.
Maybe Aldo was bringing clients home for lunch?
But Ray-Ray wasn’t home, and I knew that Aldo had two left hands in the kitchen. Ray-Ray was the cook in the relationship.
Hmm.
Well, maybe Ray-Ray had prepared the meal the night before and all Aldo had to do was heat it up.
Yeah, that was it.
But still something in the pit of my stomach just didn’t feel right.
I walked over to the far wall. The wall our apartment shared with Ray-Ray and Aldo’s.
I pressed my ear against the wall, but all I could hear was low mumbling.
Disgusted with myself for eavesdropping, I moved to the couch and flopped down onto the blue and white brocade fabric.
I’m ashamed to say that I wasn’t there for long, because before I knew it, I’d run into the kitchen, grabbed a glass, and was back at that wall!
I still couldn’t hear perfectly, but what I did hear sounded a lot like sex!
