Forever - Chapter 1:
The first thing Kris would feel were hands; hands roaming over his body, touching, caressing, stroking. Then lips, soft wet hungry lips pressing against his neck, his chin, his mouth, so sweet, that mouth; but whose was it? Whose hands were bringing him closer and closer to sheer pleasure, quickening his breathing, heating his blood? Whose mouth kissed him so madly, so softly, so deeply, making him yearn for more? He would try to open his eyes to see his mysterious lover, only to find out that he couldn’t. It was not the first time Kris had that dream. No, in fact he had that dream before, so many times, and quite regularly and it would always end that same way. When he couldn't see the face if his lover, he'd wake up, panting, wanting more, needing more, without any success at discovering who it was in his dreams. This time, however, Kris felt something new, something strange, something startling. This time, the kisses and the touches abruptly stopped and Kris felt fingers on the back of his head, pulling at something. What was it? A blindfold? Kris tensed and opened his eyes as the blindfold was pulled off.
He woke up with a start, sweating and breathing hard.
It can't be!
Kris glanced over at his wife, Katy, who was soundly asleep next to him. He got out of bed and walked into the bathroom, shutting the door behind him. He splashed some water on his face and looked at himself in the mirror. He did not like what he saw, not one bit. He leaned over the sink, pressing his forehead against the cold mirror.
"Adam," Kris whispered, squeezing his eyes shut, trying hard to block out the last image of his dream. It had been Adam, his best friend who he had seen when the blindfold was lifted. Adam's hands on him, Adam’s body pressed against his, Adam's mouth on his. Kris shook his head, willing to forget, wanting to be untrue, but when he opened his eyes again, he knew that wasn't the case.
Since the day they met, Adam has always been his ultimate fantasy, the forbidden passion he couldn't have. Except in his dreams, but God, how he wanted him! How had that happened? When had he started having feelings for his best friend? Where had he gone wrong? Kris stood still, with his eyes closed again, and once again pictured Adam. Adam's mouth on his, kissing him deeply, Adam's mouth on his neck, on his chest, nibbling his flesh, swirling his tongue all over his skin, moving slowly down his body, past his navel and....
"Stop it!" Kris hissed, stopping his imagination to go any further, "What’s wrong with you, Kris? He is your friend, you are straight!" Kris said to his reflection in the mirror. He had to stop thinking about Adam that way, before things got any worse, before he would do something he knew he would later regret. He couldn't think about Adam anymore. He was sure he would go crazy if he did. He knew he would never act on those feelings, ever!
He crept back into bed and under the covers and reached for Katy, pulling her into his arms. He softly kissed her forehead, "I love you," he whispered fiercely, wanting to convince her, or rather himself. He closed his eyes, praying he would not have that dream again, not again, not anymore.
******************************
Kris slowly opened his eyes the next morning to see Katy looking at him with kind eyes and an affectionate smile.
"Good morning baby," she whispered, as she lifted her head from the pillow and leant over, kissing Kris softly on the lips.
Kris kissed her back, trying to pull her closer and into his arms.
“I don’t want you to go,” he whined, smoothing his hand through the tangles of her hair. Katy laughed, kissing Kris again. Oh, how Kris loved that laughter, rich and beautiful. It always made him smile.
"Silly, you know I have to go to work," Katy said as she tried to squirm out of Kris’s embrace.
"Not quite yet," Kris whispered, smiling, as he firmed his hold on Katy’s body and kissed her again and deeper, slipping his tongue into Katy’s mouth. She sighed, loving the feel of her husband, as she wrapped her arms around Kris’s neck and kissed him back. After a few moments and when things started to get hotter between them, she finally stopped him.
"Kris, I really have to start getting ready," Katy said, standing up, “Or I will be late…again!”
Kris sighed, remembering how the week before he had succeeded in persuading Katy to stay in bed with him just a little bit longer. One thing had led to another, and Katy was late for work, something her manager was not very fond of and he had not failed to let her know about that.
"I know. I'll see you tonight then, babe. Oh and I almost forgot, good luck!"
"You remembered!" Katy said with a bright smile on her face. Kris was the most loving and thoughtful man she had ever known and for being that lucky, Katy was always grateful.
"Of course I did baby! I know you'll get the promotion today. We have to celebrate tonight," Kris said reaching up to tickle her. She laughed and playfully swatted his hand away.
"Promises, promises!", Katy teased with a wink, "I really really have to go now or I'll be late. Love you," Katy said as she made her way out of their bedroom and into the closet.
"Love you too," Kris called after his wife.
He fell back asleep for a couple hours, awakening to a ringing phone. He groped for the extension on the nightstand and finally answered it.
“’lo?”
"Kris, hey! What's up?"
Kris froze. He would recognize that voice anywhere. It was Adam. All of the thoughts and feelings from last night that he had tried so hard to push to the back of his head came rushing back.
"Kris, you there?" Adam asked, impatiently. Kris forced himself to recover.
"Yeah Adam, it's just early...what's up?"Adam laughed.
"It's not that early! Since when have you become a night owl? Rough night with the wife?" Adam teased. All Kris had to do was to close his eyes to see the smug look on Adam's face from the other end of the line.
"Oh shut up!" Kris grumbled which made Adam holler a laugh. Oh God, how Kris could listen to the melody of Adam's laughter till the end of time.
"So," Adam said, then paused.
"So?" Kris echoed.
"So, I was in the neighborhood and thought I'd give you a call…thought maybe we could have a drink together, catch up, you know."
Oh, I'd love to, Adam.
"Neighborhood? You're in Arkansas?"
"Yeah, had a show in Little Rock last night. You didn't know? Don't you have my tour schedule printed and attached on the fridge?" Adam once again teased, and Kris immediately thought of Adam's schedule saved on his cell phone. Damn!
"So…you coming or what?"
Kris would love nothing more than to spend some time with Adam. He could picture him now, sitting on a stool at some bar, looking as fierce as ever, his shiny black hair, laughter in his penetrating blue eyes, his body swaying to the music. He shook his head. He had to stop thinking like that!
"Adam, I'm kinda busy so I don't,-"
"Aw, come on Kris. Live a little!"
"Ok, fine," Kris said, unable to resist and if he was honest with himself, he would admit that he did not really want to resist.
"Ok, well I'll pick you up in around 6, k?"
"Yeah, I'll see ya then."
Adam hung up the phone, pleased with himself.
I knew you'd say yes, Kris. Always so predictable!
Adam knew that all he had to do was get Kris in the right place, the right frame of mind and he would finally give in. Give in to him. It had to be that way; that's the only way it could ever work. Adam knew if he tried to make the first move he'd only scare Kris away. He couldn't pinpoint when it had started. Maybe it was during the Idol days, maybe it was after Idol when he finally realized exactly how much he missed being with Kris, having him around all the time. All he seemed to do recently was fantasize about Kris and he had no idea, just knew that he did, and somehow he could sense Kris wanted him. But knowing his friend so well, he knew that Kris would have to come to him for something to happen. Not the other way around. He sighed and stood up, looking out at the city through the hotel window.
"Maybe tonight..." Adam said softly.
******************************
"Thanks," Kris said as Adam bought him another drink.
"I can stay just like this and listen to music for hours," Adam said before gulping down another shot. Kris took a sip from his beer.
From the corner of his eyes, Adam watched Kris take a drink, loving how flushed Kris looked at the moment. He looked away quickly as Kris looked up from his drink, catching him staring. He turned his head and looked at the local band, performing "Midnight in Montgomery". They were pretty good actually, although Adam felt a little out of place. A country bar was not his usual spot, and the people did not fail to show how he did not belong to that place, although Adam suspected that all that was oblivious to Kris's eyes. Kris had not moved. All night he had been at a loss at what exactly to do or say. Most of the time, it was fine. Nothing was different between them; they were just best friends, acting like they always did, but sometimes, like the moment he caught Adam looking at him differently or vice versa, he felt something strange, something new, something he was not used to, not at all. He finished his beer and looked over at Adam. He swallowed hard, unable to deny his attraction. He gave himself a brief moment to let his eyes roam Adam's body through the leather jacket. It was not enough though. Suddenly Adam turned his face to face Kris. They both looked at each other intently, waiting for the other to say something. Kris leant a little closer toward Adam, not really knowing what he was doing. Nervously he licked his lips. Adam tilted his head up so that they were face to face. Both of them were breathing hard, their eyes darting from each other's to their mouths. The air between them crackled with unspoken sexual tension. Their bodies swayed, slowly moving closer, each one wanting the other to make the first move, but not really knowing how. Suddenly Kris's cell phone rang, breaking the spell that had been cast over them. He looked away and quickly moved to answer it.
"Katy, hi baby!" Kris said with a little too much enthusiasm. He failed to catch Adam's angry look as he averted his eyes back at the band who had finished Alan Jackson's song and was walking off the stage. Soon a young redhead woman was up on the stage.
"You got the promotion?! That's great, I knew you would! I'm with Adam at a bar nearby...yeah, I'll be home soon....OK, love you too."
Kris bit his lip as he looked over at Adam, who was once again looking out at the stage.
"You ready to go?" Adam asked, turning around suddenly with a smile on his face. Kris nodded, not knowing what to say, to do, and they walked out of the bar.
As Adam drove them back to Kris's place, neither spoke a word.
"Thanks Adam, I had a great time."
"Yeah, me too buddy."
"Dude, you will be around for a day or two, right?" Kris asked as Adam pulled up the driveway.
"Yeah, sure," Adam replied with a smile. Kris wanted to see him again and soon.
"Cool, then see you bro," Kris said as he got out of the car. Katy appeared outside, meeting Kris with a kiss. Adam started his car, but before he had a chance to drive away, Katy stopped him.
"Adam, hi!"
"Hi Katy. You look lovely. Have you done something with your hair?" Adam asked.
"Yeah! I changed the color a little bit. You like?"
"Very. You look beautiful!"
"I should have married you instead of this one," Katy said motioning over her shoulder at her husband.
"Oh I would love you but there is a small problem, honey," Adam replied with a grin, and Katy sighed dramatically.
"All the good men are either taken or gay."
"Hey!" Kris protested playfully.
"What?" Katy said teasingly, "You are a good man and you are taken, aren't you?" she said and showed her left hand and her wedding ring," Hey Adam, You don't have to leave yet, come inside!"
Adam looked quickly at Kris, but Kris's eyes revealed nothing. He smiled at Katy, "Sure, why not?!"
He could not help but like Katy. She really was so sweet and kind, but he also couldn't help being jealous of her.
Katy told them both about her promotion and her new job and how excited she was. Her enthusiasm was contagious and they were both very happy for her. Katy monopolized most of the conversation and although Kris and Adam chimed in at the right times and answered her questions, neither spoke a word to each other.
"So Kris," Katy continued, "There is one bad part to all this."
"What's that?"
"I have to go away on a business trip for a week, starting Monday to work on part of the project."
"Aw, baby..." Kris started, taking her hand, "Where are you going?"
"Chicago, but I'll call you everyday and I'm sure you'll find stuff to do without me," she said, smiling, although she wasn't too happy about leaving her husband for a week.
"You can spend more time with Adam for instance now that he is here," she said, smiling at Adam. Kris glanced at Adam, and they both smiled, each trying his hardest to get back his normal ease with the other's company.
"I sure am going to miss you baby!" Kris said giving Katy a hug.
Adam stood up.
"It's pretty late and I better be going now. I'll talk to you guys later. Katy, congratulations again!"
"Bye Adam, thank you," Katy called after Adam as he let himself out.
"Kris, is something wrong? You seem like you're somewhere else," Katy asked when Adam left.
"If you're that upset about my leaving, I can see if I can make the trip shorter."
Kris shook his head and took her hand in his.
"No. No I don't want you to do that. Yes I will miss you, but this is too important for you to jeopardize. I know how much this means to you. I'm sorry for seeming a little distant. I guess I'm still tired from the tour."
Katy curled up next to him, wrapping her arms around him. Kris leaned down to kiss her lips, lightly at first. As his kisses soon grew deeper, pushing his tongue into Katy's mouth, she moaned lightly, shifting her body and pulling Kris down on top of her. He continued kissing her, enjoying the feeling of her sweet mouth, her soft lips against his.
Kris suddenly realized that it was Adam's face that he saw in his mind, it was Adam that he was touching and kissing in his head. He abruptly pulled away, looking at a very confused Katy.
"I…I'm sorry, baby," he whispered, catching his breath, trying to think of an excuse as to why he had stopped, "I'm just really too tired right now, I-"
"Kris, baby, it's OK. I'm pretty tired myself. We can put on a movie and we can just sit here together and veg out, OK?" Katy said and Kris nodded his head. He leaned over, running his hands through his hair, as Katy went in search of a movie.
Stop it! Stop thinking of him!
As Katy came back in and popped a movie in the VCR, Kris sat back up. She sat down next to him, leaning her head on his shoulder.
"I love you Kris."
Kris kissed her hair and pulled her close.
"I love you too, K," Kris said softly.
