[desertskies]

Finally the long awaited conclusion to Finding Happiness. I am pleased with how it ended and I hope you will be as well. I could have gotten a little bit more graphic in the some of the scenes in this last part I wanted to make it a bit more story based then smut based. Thanks for all the wonderful feedback and encouragement to write this series.

Chapter 11

“Michael I wanted to talk with you about something.” Max said suddenly. He and Michael had been talking for about 10 minutes about his upcoming trip home with Kyle for Spring Break. Michael was happy to finally meet Max after months of talking on the phone and through email.

“Sure what’s up?” Michael asked

“Listen I know coming home with Kyle kind of cuts into your time with him…” Max was interrupted by Michael

“Max.”

“No let me finish. It is taking time away from you two and I feel bad about that. Kyle misses you a lot and even though he won’t say anything I know it is going to hurt him to be home and not be with you. So I want you to.” Max declared

“Huh?” Michael asked confused

Max explained “I want you and Kyle to have some time together when we are there. We are staying at your apartment for a couple of days, right? So I will clear out for a bit and the two of you can be together.”

“No Max you don’t have to do that man. It is ok. Kyle and I have talked about it. We have the summer and everything. It isn’t a big deal.” Michael insisted.

“But it is and I know it. Come on Michael. I know you miss him to and want to be with him. I am cool with it. I understand what it feels like to be away from someone you love and when you see them again you just want to be with him so bad it is almost painful. Christmas was a killer so I can just imagine how you feel since it has been so much longer. It is really alright with me Michael.”

Michael sighed. “Ok if you’re sure. I really, really appreciate this Max. It means a lot.”

“I know. So anyhow we will be there day after tomorrow. I’m a little nervous about meeting the parents. I know they don’t know about Kyle and I but still it’s a big deal.”

Michael laughed. “It’s going to be ok Max. Amy will adore you. Just be ready for a lot of hugs and mothering from her. That is the way she is. And Jim is cool. You’ll like him. He is just a regular guy who happens to love his son more than anything else in the world.”

“That is pretty much what Kyle told me to. So see you in a couple of days.” Max said

****

“Max nervous about meeting the parentals?” Maria asked

Michael closed his cell phone and looked at Maria who was standing in his doorway. “Eavesdropping on my conversation?”

“Like you care. So?” Maria walked into the room and sat on the edge of the bed.

“Kyle is bringing someone home to meet the parents, whether they know it or not. That’s huge. You know what I’m saying. So yeah Max is a little nervous. He doesn’t want them to hate him. He knows how much their opinion means to Kyle.”

“How about you? Are you nervous to finally meet Kyle’s boyfriend.” Maria asked

“Not really. Max is a good guy. I like him. But I guess I am a little bit nervous about seeing him and Kyle together.” Michael admitted. As much as he was anticipating seeing Kyle and Max he just wasn’t so sure how he was going to react to seeing Kyle and Max “together”.

“You sure it is a good idea for them to stay at the apartment after I go out of town with the girls?” Maria asked obviously concerned about Michael’s feelings. She didn’t like the thought of leaving town when Michael was most likely going to be in a lot of pain. No matter how friendly Michael and Max had gotten it still didn’t change the fact that Max would be sleeping with Kyle in the next room from him. It would hurt him immensely. She was positive.

Seeing the concern on Maria’s face he said. “It is going to be ok Maria. Stop worrying. I’m ok with Kyle and Max. It will probably hurt at first but I will be able to handle it.”

“Maybe I shouldn’t go. If I’m here maybe they wouldn’t be so public.” Maria suggested.

“No. Go with the girls. Have fun. I’ll be ok.” Michael was really touched by Maria’s offer but he knew how much she was looking forward to the trip with the girls. It was Spring Break after all.

“Well if you change your mind just let me know. I’m here for you. Ok?” Maria said as she hugged Michael. Her heart ached for him. She just wished there was something she could do.

***

Two days later…

Max and Kyle stopped at Michael and Maria’s apartment before going to parents house. Kyle was too excited about seeing Michael and Maria to wait for dinner when the whole family would be getting together.

Michael and Maria both ran to the door as soon as they heard the knock and grabbed Kyle into a group hug. It had been a long few months. After the group hug Kyle hugged both Maria and Michael separately and introduced Max to his best friends. After a few minutes Max asked Maria to give him a tour of the apartment since they would be staying there in a few days.

“You wanted to give them time alone. Didn’t you?” Maria asked. She was starting to see why Kyle was so crazy about the guy. Besides being drop dead gorgeous he also had a good heart.

Max shrugged. “I figured they needed time to say a proper hello.”

“Thank you Max. You can’t know how hard it is for Michael to be away from Kyle. He loves him so much. For them to have these few moments to say hello is going to mean the world to him.” Maria said with tears in her eyes.

Max was surprised to see the intense emotion in Maria’s eyes. “You love him.”

“Of course I love him. He is my best friend. He is family.” Maria declared.

“No I mean you’re in love with him.” Max clarified.

Maria just nodded. Max felt like laughing. The past few months Michael had been frustrated beyond belief over his love and desire for Maria, who he was afraid to declare his feelings for, and all this time she was in love with him as well. “Why don’t you tell him?” Max asked.

“Isn’t it obvious? He is in love with a guy. He wouldn’t want me.”

“Maria, just because he is in love with Kyle doesn’t mean he isn’t attracted to girls or that he wouldn’t be able to reciprocate your feelings. I mean I love Kyle but I don’t consider myself gay, bisexual maybe but not gay, because I still like girls. I just happen to be in love with Kyle.” Max insisted.

“Still… I can’t say anything. Michael means too much to me.”

Max was going to say something else but at that moment Michael and Kyle joined them.

“So this is where the two of you will be staying.” Michael said indicating his room. “I’m going to bunk out on the couch.”

“I told you that you don’t have to do that Michael. You can sleep in my room.” Maria said rolling his eyes in frustration. They had argued about the sleeping arrangements for two days. Michael insisted on sleeping on the sofa bed and not in her room. She just didn’t understand him.

“I told you Maria. I wouldn’t feel right sleeping in your room. The sofa bed is fine.” Michael stated. There was no way in hell that he was going to sleep in her bed. He would never get to sleep with her scent surrounding him. Just the thought of it made him break out in a cold sweat.

Kyle laughed slightly to himself. He was sure he knew the reason that Michael wouldn’t sleep in Maria’s room. He tried to keep the argument between his two friends from getting out of control. They both looked to be at their breaking point.

Max just shook his head sure that they were all crazy. He was in love with a guy who was also his roommate who was in love with his best friend who reciprocated his feelings but was also in love with his other best friend and roommate. It was definitely crazy. But somehow it didn’t seem wrong.

Max took a moment to take a good look at Michael as the argument between Michael and Maria continued. Max could definitely see what attracted both Kyle and Maria to him. The guy was gorgeous, tall and muscular with big strong hands. Max had not expected to feel an attraction for Michael but he had the first moment he saw him when they were at the door. Yep, he was right before, it was definitely crazy.

Later that evening…

“Thanks for giving me and Michael a few minutes this afternoon.” Kyle whispered as he kissed Max’s chest.

“You’re welcome. I knew that you needed it.”

“Max can I ask you something?” Kyle sat up so he could look into Max’s eyes.

“Sure.” Max said feeling a little uneasy suddenly. Kyle was looking at him so seriously.

“You like Michael, don’t you?” Kyle asked. He had watched Michael and Max interact all afternoon. Kyle knew that they had become friends but was surprised with how comfortable they seemed around each other. They were so different from each other, almost like night and day, but somehow they looked so perfectly suited when they interacted. They seemed like total opposites but somehow found a place somewhere in the middle where they both feed off each others strengths. Kyle couldn’t help feeling a little envious.

“Of course I do. He is a great guy. A little rough around the edges sometimes but once you get past his gruffness and see that he has a good heart what isn’t to like. Plus he obviously adores you and that is a definite plus in my book.” Max said honestly.

“Yeah I know. But that isn’t what I meant Max. I mean you “like” him, you’re attracted to him. Aren’t you?” Kyle asked without emotion. He didn’t want Max to know how he was feeling about this. If he was to be completely honest he wasn’t exactly sure how he felt about it. He loved both of them and wasn’t completely sure which made him feel more uncomfortable; the fact that Max was attracted to Michael or the fact that Michael was equally attracted to Max. Kyle knew Michael better than anyone and he saw the instant awareness in Michael’s eyes when he first laid eyes on Max. It was obvious to him how Michael felt and he was sure that he was not wrong about Max’s feelings as well.

Max was silent for a while. He didn’t want to hurt him but he also couldn’t lie to Kyle. They had decided months ago that there would be no lies between them so he decided to tell Kyle the absolute truth. “Yeah I am. I’m sorry Kyle. I don’t know what is wrong with me. I love you. I want you more than anything in this world. I don’t understand how I could also be so attracted to someone else. Until we got together I didn’t even have a clue that was attracted to guys and now look at me.” Max stated in frustrated as he got out of bed and paced the room.

Kyle closed his eyes. Max confirmed what he had suspected but was actually surprised that hearing the words did not hurt as bad as he thought it would. In fact it did the complete opposite. It actually turned him on. The thought of Michael and Max together really turned him on.

He got out of bed and stopped Max from his frantic pacing. “Max, calm down. Look at me.” And when Max finally looked into his eyes he continued. “It’s ok. It is really ok. I just needed you to tell me the truth.”

Max looked at him confused. “You’re not mad.”

“I’m not mad. In fact…” Kyle pulled Max’s hand down to his crouch. “... hearing that you are attracted to Michael has seemed to have a totally different affect on me.” Kyle said with a smile on his face.

Max couldn’t believe this. “Are you saying that knowing that I want to fuck Michael is turning you on?” he asked incredibly.

“What do you think?” Kyle asked as he pushed himself fully into Max’s hand.

Max leaned down and kissed Kyle fiercely. They stumbled on to the bed and soon Max was filling Kyle completely.

A little while later as they both were struggling to catch their breaths Kyle formulated an idea and made the suggestion to Max. “What would you think of a threesome?”

***
Two days later…

“You’re parents seemed a little disappointed that we were spending the rest of Break here.” Max stated as he watched Michael and Kyle play Madden on X-Box. Michael was kicking Kyle’s ass so he thought it best to distract both of them, especially considering tonight’s planned event.

“Dad and Amy understand. They’re just feeling a little bit lonely with all of us gone.” Kyle said.

“Maria and I are over there at least three times a week for dinner so it is you they are really missing. Their little boy.” Michael teased.

“Ha ha. You’re the youngest of the three of us Michael so if anyone is their little boy it is you.”

“Nah. It isn’t the same.” Michael disagreed

“Why do none of you call them both mom and dad?” Max asked

“What do you mean?” Kyle asked confused

“I mean how long have they been married? Since you were like six or seven right? So why is it that you don’t call Amy Mom or Maria doesn’t call Jim Dad? I mean they are all you’ve had. Your mom and Maria’s dad are both out of the picture. So Amy and Jim are essentially your real parents. Right?” When Kyle nodded he continued. “And Michael you have lived with them since your parents died, which was when you were really young. So why don’t you call them Mom and Dad?

Kyle and Michael looked at each other and both just shrugged.

“Listen I don’t mean to overstep here or anything but you know my sister and I were adopted. We were abandoned by our biological parents when we were six and were adopted by Evans’s. They are the only parents we have really ever had. That is why I asked. It just seemed strange to me especially considering how much they obviously love all three of you.” Max said before leaving the room. He went into Michael’s bedroom to use his computer to check his email. He figured that Michael and Kyle needed to think about what he said for a few minutes and have some time to talk alone.

“He’s right you know. I guess it is kind of strange that we have never started to call them mom and dad after all these years.” Kyle said

“Yeah well they are your parents. I’m not their son. They are just my guardians.” Michael said defensively.

“Do you really feel that way? You don’t feel that they are your parents after all this time?” Kyle asked shocked at Michael admission.

“Well yeah… I mean I hardly remember my parents. I do remember them but when I tell people about my parents I always tell them about Jim and Amy.” Michael admitted

“Damnit Michael you are confusing me. You just said that they weren’t your parents and now you are saying that they are. Which is it?” Kyle asked frustrated

“No what I said was that I’m not their child. You and Maria are their kids. I’m just your friend who they took in.”

Kyle hit Michael on the back on the head. “You’re an idiot.”

“Ow, what the hell did you do that for?” Michael shouted

“I told you. You’re an idiot. My Dad and Amy love you just as much as they love Maria and me. You are their kid. Have you ever heard them introduce us to people? They always say ‘These are our kids Michael, Maria and Kyle.’ You are always included. You are their child as much as we are. They love you. End of discussion.” Kyle said

Michael stared at the TV screen for a few minutes and then picked up the controller to continue the game. “Ok.” When Kyle didn’t move he looked over at him and asked. “Are we playing or what?”

Kyle laughed and picked up his controller and they began to play the game again.

“Just for the record, I love you to, even if you are an idiot.” Kyle said without taking his eyes off the screen.

Michael smiled. “I know.”

Later that evening…

The original plan was for Max to sleep on the couch while Michael and Kyle took the room for the night but a few nights earlier Kyle had come up with a better plan, one that had yet to be discussed with Michael. Kyle was sure Michael wouldn’t have a problem with his idea. As the night progressed Max looked like he was ready to climb the wall he was so anxious.

Michael couldn’t help noticing Max’s behavior all night and as he was walking into his bedroom for the night he turned and asked. “Max are you sure this is ok? If you aren’t comfortable with this then we can just forget it. It is alright.”

“No…no… I’m fine. Absolutely fine with this. Go ahead.” Max stuttered. He only hoped that the arrangement would be as fine with Michael as it was Kyle and Max. Max was so damn nervous about the whole thing that he thought he may be sick.

“Ok. Good night Max.” Michael said before closing his bedroom door.

Max closed his eyes and took several deep breaths. The plan was for him to wait ten minutes and then come into the room with Michael and Kyle and at that point Kyle would suggest that Max join them. Max prayed that Kyle was right and Michael would not be mad. He felt above all else that Michael was his friend and they had a comfortable relationship with each other. He was afraid that acting on his attraction would make things complicated but Kyle assured him that everything would be fine. He was positive that Michael was as interested in Max and he was Michael. Max really hoped Kyle wasn’t wrong or this would be a really bad night for all of them.

Ten minutes later, after removing all of his clothes, Max quietly entered Michael’s bedroom. Michael was lying between Kyle’s legs, his head bobbing up and down on Kyle’s cock as Kyle moaned in pleasure. The scene in front of him instantly made him painfully hard. He couldn’t stop himself from moaning.

Michael did not hear Max’s moan but Kyle did. He looked into Max’s eyes and saw the desire and longing in them and it brought him immediately to release. He moaned as Michael took all of his cum deep in his throat. Michael moved up Kyle’s body to kiss him passionately on his lips but Kyle stopped him before it got out of control.

“Wait. Michael. I need to ask you something.” Kyle looked at Max and with his eyes silently told him to remain quiet for a few minutes more.

“What? Now?” Michael asked confused. He wanted to fuck Kyle and didn’t understand how he could possibly want to talk at this moment.

“You want Max don’t you?” Kyle asked reaching between them to caress Michael’s cock.

“Huh? What? Kyle what are you talking about?” Michael groaned. He was so close to coming but Kyle stopped touching him.

“You want Max. It is ok. Please tell me honestly Michael. Please.” Kyle begged.

Michael buried his head in Kyle’s neck. He couldn’t believe that Kyle was asking him this. Now at all times but he did as he asked and answered him honestly. “Yes, I want Max.”

Kyle looked over at Max and nodded his head letting him know that it was time for Max to make his move. Max silently walked over to the bed and touched Michael on his back gently.

Michael jumped at the touch. “What?” He asked looking at both Kyle and Max for answers.

It was Max who answered by crushing his lips against Michael’s. Michael was stunned for a moment and then soon was kissing Max back enthusiastically. Kyle crawled up behind Michael to kiss his neck as his hands roamed Max’s chest. After a few minutes air became an issue and Michael pulled away from Max. He looked at both Kyle and Max and asked. “Are you sure you want to do this?”

They both moaned “Yes”, as they continued to ravish Michael’s body. Kyle from the back and Max from the front. They touched and kissed everywhere on each others bodies, each taking turns being the ravished. They couldn’t seem to get enough of each others. Finally Michael wanted more “I want to fuck you.” He said to Kyle and then turned to Max and said “And I want you to fuck me.”

Kyle and Max both shook their heads and soon the room was full of moans of pleasure as Michael fucked Kyle as Max fucked him. They soon found a comfortable rhythm. Moans of pleasure and pleas for more reverberated around the room. All three shouted in release at the same time. They collapsed on Michael’s bed together Kyle moved in the middle to be sandwiched between his two loves, Michael and Max.

“I love you both so much.” Kyle declared with tears in his eyes.

Michael and Max looked at each other and then both said. “We love you.” They each took turns kissing Kyle and then kissed each other gently.

They drifted off to sleep in each others arms. Kyle had never felt so happy in his whole life. He finally was where he wanted to always be, with the men he loved.

***

The end of Break…

Max, Michael and Kyle had spent the rest of break in each others’ arms. They only parted to have dinner with the parents. The rest of the time they took advantage of the time they had together. Max and Michael took the time to learn about each other, to learn to love each other nearly as much as they both loved Kyle and Kyle relished in the love he shared with both of them. He hated to see the break end. This had been paradise for him.

Kyle hugged Michael tightly. “I don’t want to go.” He whispered.

“I know.” Michael said gruffly. He looked over at Max who was silently standing by as the two said their goodbye. He hoped that Max would understand his silent plea. He begged with his eyes to take care of Kyle.

After a few minutes Kyle pulled away to allow Michael and Max to say goodbye to each other. They kissed gently and hugged each other. Michael whispered in Max’s ear. “Love him for both of us.” Max nodded his head and hugged Michael tightly one more time before letting go.

They both headed for the door. They still had to stop by the Valenti’s for yet another tearful goodbye before heading back to school. Before Max walked out the door he turned to Michael. “Tell Maria how you feel about her.”

Michael faced Max with a confused look on his face and Max continued. “Trust me, Michael. Tell her how you feel. Be happy.”

Michael looked into Max’s eyes for a few moments and a huge smile came on his face. He nodded. Suddenly Michael did not feel so heartbroken and could not wait for Maria to get home.


Epilogue

This is the end of my journal writing. Actually I haven’t written in this for almost 10 years but I figured it was time to end the story, so to speak. So much has happened in the last 10 years but I have never had to write in my journal because I always had someone to talk to and to share my feeling with or to help me work out my problems. After college Kyle came home, which was one of the happiest days of my life. What made it even better is he brought Max with him. By the end of college the parentals knew about their relationship and they both loved and accepted Max into the family. He was one of us. Kyle and I went to work with our Dad. Yep you heard me correct our Dad. I have a lot to thank Max Evans for but that it definitely one of the things I am most grateful for. He made us realize the injustice we had been doing to Amy and Jim Valenti. If anyone deserved to be acknowledged and called our parents it was them. The first time I ever saw Jim Valenti break down in tears was the day that Maria and I called him Dad. For some reason it seemed to move him more than it did Amy when Kyle and I called her Mom. She had accepted years before that when the time was right that we would do so and she took it in stride but I could tell it really made her happy.

So Kyle and I are Deputies, Maria is a music teacher and Max is a guidance counselor. We are all good at our jobs and happy. Oh yeah I guess I should mention that Maria and I were married five years ago. The second thing I owe to Max. He urged me to tell Maria how I felt, which I did and to my utter relief and joy she was in love me back. We have been together ever since. When Kyle and Max moved back here we all moved into an apartment together. Things were kind of strange at first. Through the years of college there were always times when Kyle and I would be together and even on the rare times that Max visited with him I was with him as well but the four of us had never really been at the same place and same time together. The dynamics of our relationships were far from ordinary so it took us all awhile to adjust. Maria was jealous, not that I was involved with Max and Kyle as well as herself, but that she was only involved with me. She felt left out. Max made up for that. I guess you can say Max became the stud of our place. We all took turns with him and he loved it. He still does and we all love him. To some people our relationships might be considered deviant or unnatural but to us it is just how it is. We all love each other and are happy and that is all that is important. Tomorrow we move into our first real home. We bought a duplex, actually two duplexs. We had the walls torn down between the two houses so they are just one big house but each couple will still have their own space.

Ten years ago I was struggling. I was separated from Kyle and dying inside because I would not acknowledge my love for Maria. Finding happiness was an allusive dream and fairy tale but now I have everything I have always wanted. I have Maria and Kyle at my side and now as well I have the wonderful Max Evans who surprising enough has become the love of all of lives. I never knew that it was possible to be so in love and so happy but I feel confident to say we will all live happily ever after.
