Late Shift

I looked out the window for the millionth time tonight, it was a slow night. I glanced at the clock and it said 2:30 A.M. and sighed. I had already cleaned every inch of the store and replenished the shelves. You might be wondering what I, Eddward Marion Vincent the smartest person at my school is doing working in a convenience store at 2:30 am on a Sunday. It was the summer of my junior year of college and my parents had been neglecting to refill my bank card, so I needed to make some money. It's a store on the outskirts of a small town in the next county over from Peach Creek so there wasn't much chance of seeing anyone I knew in this area. At this time of a Sunday night, there wasn't a lot of traffic so I had to find ways to keep myself busy.

I had walked to the back of the store to check on the fountain drink section and make sure all was clean when I heard the buzzer for the door sound and I turned around to see someone standing at my counter. As I walked back to the front of the store, I noticed a red baseball hat placed backward on red hair and the broad shoulders of an athlete standing there shirtless. Without thinking I said automatically, "Sir there is a dress code, no shirt, no shoes, no service."

Without turning around the guy responded, "Look, dude, it's late at night, no one is around and I have a hot chick that's ready to put out, I need some condoms quick." Then he turned around and the shock of who it was almost knocked me to the floor. I saw his emerald eyes go wide in amazement. "Double Dork, what are you doing here?"

"I work here Kevin, just this once, I'll let you slide and sell you the items you need." I walked behind my counter and reached over and grabbed a pack of condoms and handed them to him.

"Not these, dude, I need the ultra-ones." He smirked at me with that mischievous grin of his.

"You have to get the correct size Kevin: most guys like to pretend it's bigger than it really is."

"That's what I'm trying to do Dork, you wanna see for yourself?" He laughed.

Involuntarily I looked down and saw that the button to his tight jeans was undone, but below that was a huge bulge in his pants. He reached teasingly towards the zipper and I blushed, "No, I'll take your word for it." I took his money and rang up his purchase handing him the change. His hand seemed to graze mine sending a shiver down my back. He winked at me and started towards the door, I called out "Thanks have a nice night."

"Oh, I will Dork, I will" and he was gone out the door. I watched his well-shaped butt as he walked to an older model pickup and jumped in slamming the door and racing out of the parking lot.

I'll let you in on a little secret that I haven't even told the Eds, I'm gay, which they do know, but the real secret is, I have had a crush on Kevin Barr forever. After going through puberty Kevin had grown this amazing body and his face had become so handsome. I would describe him as a Greek god. The picture of his broad chest and 6-pack was burned into my eyes, well that didn't help my night get any better. Now here I was stuck at work with a raging hard-on for my neighbor, whom I knew I would never have a chance of being with. In the back of my mind, I wished he had pulled the zipper down. Eddward, get a hold of yourself and stop this daydreaming. Somehow, I felt a bit of jealousy, which I couldn't understand; why would I be jealous of Kevin. I knew I couldn't have him. Hmm, was I jealous of the fact that he always seemed to be getting laid and here I was still a virgin or was I jealous of that fact that someone other than me was always getting to touch those magnificent muscles and kiss those luscious lips?

At school, he never even seemed to notice my existence, of course, him being the Captain of the baseball team and star quarterback and one of the most popular kids in school placed him well out of my social circle. At home in the cul-de-sac, he would wave on occasion or speak if we passed each other going to one of the other houses in the neighborhood. But other than that, I don't think he even remembered if I was alive. He had been at odds with Eddy most of middle school because of the short Eds penchant for scams which he seemed to get drawn into naively on a regular basis. I had always hoped that the redhead wasn't that stupid. I had even warned him a couple of times of a pending scam but he still seemed to get drawn in and then would pound us afterward.
