My
mobile phone bleeped loudly interrupting my day dreams. Automatically I reached
into my rucksack to see who had text me. I sighed when I saw that it was Alex, to
remind me not to be late again for my shift. Don't get me wrong I am never
intentionally late for anything but distractions always seem
to present themselves at the last minute. I try hard to remain focussed but
sometimes they are so hard to resist, especially when the distractions come in
the shape of men.
"Who
was that?" asked a drowsy voice.
"Just
Alex" I replied rolling over to face the supine figure of my boyfriend, Morten.
With
his eyes shut tight against the glaring mid-afternoon sun, he absent-mindedly
stroked his bare chest and stomach before moving down to fondle his ample
package. My eyes followed his every move drinking in the sight of his tanned
naked body. I felt myself becoming aroused and my free hand strayed down
towards my own cock, until that is I heard footsteps approaching across the
pebble beach.
"What
did he want?" he asked in a slightly disapproving tone.
"Reminding
me not to be late for work, that's all" I replied rolling over onto my stomach
to hide my erection.
"He
fusses too much over you, but he does have a point."
"Don't
be like that; he's a good mate and always looking out for me."
"Mmm"
was all he said as he too rolled over revealing his pert bum to the world.
The
footsteps I had heard approaching turned out to belong to a group of teenagers,
fully clothed despite the fact that they were on Brighton's famous (or should
that be notorious) nudist beach and the day was hot. For several minutes they
wandered around making lewd comments about the naked sunbathers, men and women
alike. Morten muttered under his breath about them being from Whitehawk and
needing to grow up. I nodded sagely in agreement wishing that they would move
on, which they did once they realised they weren't getting a reaction from
their targets.
Still
they did look cute in a chavvy sort of way and I pointed this out which brought
a chuckle in response and a comment about me being partial to a bit of rough.
He knows me so well. Unable to resist any longer I shuffled sideways until our
bodies touched, planted a kiss on his shoulder savouring the salty taste of his
sun soaked skin. He raised an eyebrow, grinned mischievously and clambered on
top covering my body with his.
"God,
I wanna fuck you right now" he whispered into my ear.
"Bastard!" I giggled trying to throw him off me before we attracted
unwanted attention.
Morten
pressed his hips into my bum, just hard enough to tease before rolling off and
sitting upright on his beach towel. I looked over my shoulder and watched him gazing
thoughtfully out to sea. I wondered what he was thinking,
sometimes he could be so hard to read. A seagull cried out loudly as it flew
low over us making me jump and breaking Martens' train of thought. I glanced
down at my watch and was dismayed to see that it was already four o'clock. Only an hour to go before the beginning of another gruelling shift
at the 'The Golden Ring' pub. I would be working there until the early
hours of the morning.
"Do
you fancy a burger before you start work?" Morten asked as he reached for his
clothes "My treat."
"Why
kind Sir, you sure know how to treat a lady" I replied in a falsetto voice
before receiving a playful slap on my behind.
"You're
no lady that's for certain and I've got the photos to prove it!"
I
bit my tongue determined not to be drawn on that subject, not when there were
so many people around us. I wasn't going to give Morten an excuse to announce
my exhibitionist trait to the world! In a place like Brighton you simply don't
know who knows who. Grinning at my discomfort he watched me finish dressing
before taking my hand he led me off the beach and in the direction of Burger
King.
Over
a Whopper meal I asked what he had planned for us over the coming weekend only to
be told that he was visiting his parents in Croydon on Saturday and off to see
his sister in Basingstoke on Sunday. The fact that I was being left alone was
made doubly worse because I never got to see much of him during the week due to
the long hours he worked at the Art College. I cherished the time we spent
together, especially Sundays, when we stayed in bed until mid-day before
heading into the lanes for lunch and generally mooch around. My face must have
reflected my disappointment because he reached across the food strewn table,
held my hand and looked me in the eye before telling me how much he would miss
me. I smiled back and ate the rest of my meal all too aware of the passing
time.
I
dragged my feet as we walked hand in hand up St. James Street insisting on
looking in the charity shops, anything to prolong the time we had together. On
the pub's doorstep he gave me a lingering, cock twitching kiss and then he was
gone with a promise to call me on Sunday.

Friday
evenings were normally slow to start off with just a couple of pensioners
propping up the bar while making their pints last as long as possible. Dean,
the landlord, always moaned that they didn't drink quickly enough and created the
wrong impression for passing trade. He had a point I suppose but personally I
think they're great and we often had a chat while I cleared up empty glasses
and wiped down the bar. I loved to hear about the bad old days, when being gay
was illegal and what they had got up to in secret when they were young. So what
if they flirted with me and pinched my bum when they thought the coast was
clear, they meant no harm and I enjoyed the attention they gave me.
Then
by about seven o'clock the first of the regulars would start arriving followed
by the party goers around nine. By ten o'clock the ground floor would normally
be heaving and the first floor filling up rapidly. But tonight though was
different for there were only a couple of regulars and that was about it, even
the old timers had gone home.
Alex
and I busied ourselves at first but there's only so much that could be done so
we ended up the other side of the bar and caught up on gossip in the Argus
newspaper. There on the second page we found the possible source of our lack of
customers, a new club 'Sinners' opened its doors tonight offering free entrance
and cheap drinks. Alex groaned aloud as he read the article and told me that Dean
would not be happy as it would reduce our already meagre profits. Gay
businesses had suffered along with everyone else during this recession and the
last thing we needed was another competitor.
Having
spoken of the devil, he appeared five minutes later looking as smart as ever.
If I wasn't already with Morten and Alex hadn't got in there first, I would have
made a serious play for him. He's right up my street, an ex-copper with all the
demeanour and arrogance of a serving officer, blonde with icy blue eyes and an
impressive pair of guns. Standing at over six foot tall few sane or sober
people argued with him, word had got round quickly that he was handy with his
fists.
He
scowled as he looked around the virtually empty room and us on the wrong side
of the bar but said nothing until he had poured himself a drink and joined us.
"Quiet
in here tonight" he said stating the obvious.
We
looked at him warily not quite sure how to respond. I made to stand up but he
placed a hand on my shoulder and told me to relax, he'd deal with what little
custom there was. Sometime later and in a less than subtle move he sent me off
to buy fish and chips for everyone left in the pub. I glanced through the pub
window as I headed off, already Dean and Alex were deep in conversation, I
wondered what they were talking about that needed me out of the way.
I
didn't find out until much later that night, once the pub had closed and we'd
tidied up. Over a cup of coffee Dean told me that the pub's income had been falling
steadily over the last six months and that with Sinners opening our future
looked even bleaker. In his accountant's opinion we had to turn things around
quickly otherwise we'd be out of business within a few months. I had been
expecting to hear that I was out of a job there and then, so this final
statement brought a little relief to me. He went on to say that he had a couple
of ideas but needed more which was why I was being included in on this
conversation. Alex had apparently been singing my praises saying that I was
good at thinking outside of the box and was certain I would have plenty of
ideas. No pressure then!
I walked
home deep in thought. How was I going to find a solution for us when I was no
good at maths or business matters? My strengths lay in dealing with people and
knowing how to please them, which is why even if I do admit it myself, I make a
damn good barman. Tired and despairing that nothing was springing to mind I
climbed into my empty bed wishing that Morten was here.

I woke
the following morning feeling more optimistic. I felt that I my life was at a
turning point, all I had to do was solve the problem
presented to me last night. Sitting at the kitchen table with a mug of coffee
in one hand and a piece of toast in the other I read through the gay guide to
Brighton. I was looking for a clue. What had Dean and Alex missed in their
business plans?
On
my second mug of coffee the pieces of the puzzle began to fall into place,
excited like a blood hound discovering a scent, I re-scanned the business
listings animatedly. The Golden Ring's advert was lost amongst the others, even
I was lucky to have found it. That would need to be changed along with the fact
there were loads of similar pubs with nothing to distinguish them from one
another. I felt we needed to diversify and offer more to our customers to
regain their loyalty and much needed cash. What could we do to make ourselves
stand out? What could we offer locals and visiting tourists that the others
didn't?
Taking
a step back, figuratively speaking, I looked for any gaps in the market that hadn't
already been covered. At first nothing sprung to mind but slowly the fog lifted
and there stood the solution crystal clear. We should split the business into
two, one part remaining as the traditional pub venue, with other part offering
themed evenings run on nights not available elsewhere.
Genius!
I thought to myself, now what sort of themes to offer and where? The where bit
was simple, the upstairs rooms could be converted with controlled access for
paying members. The theme bit took more researching as I wanted to find out
what was available elsewhere in the country. After an hour of surfing the
internet I had made a list of what I thought were possible themes. Pleased with
myself I sent a text to Alex giving him the news before I put my list to one
side and got on with household chores.
By
lunch time I was getting a little stir crazy, there's only so much dusting and
hoovering a guy can do! I hate being alone for any length of time, so keen to
hear a friendly voice I called Morten on his mobile only to be put through to
his voicemail. I left a rambling message declaring my love and how much I missed
him before trailing off a little lamely. A little embarrassed by my neediness I
decided that I should man up and leave him to contact me, after all it was him
who had arranged to be away for the whole weekend.
With
a couple of hours to kill before my shift started at the pub I showered and
changed before heading off into town to have a coffee and watch the world go by
(okay the guys going by if I'm being honest). One lad caught my interest, his
face looked familiar and as I struggled to recall where I had seen him before
he spotted me watching him. Smirking slightly he sauntered over and stood in
front of me with hands buried deep in his pockets.
"Spare
some change please?" he said furtively glancing around him.
The
moment I heard his voice I remembered where I'd seen him before. On the beach
yesterday, he was one of the chavs who'd been ogling the sunbathers!
"No
but I'll buy you a drink and something to eat" I replied noticing the way his
clothes hung on his slender frame.
This
appeared to catch him off guard for he hesitated, glanced at me suspiciously
before muttering "I suppose so."
"Your
choice" I replied acting more coolly than I felt.
