Hi! So I'm an author on this site now too. *Grins* I have decided to  post my story here because on the other board it seems to take forever till they update the chapters....  I hadn't have a beta for this first chapter yet, but Lynn did a good job from chapter 2 on. ;)

How could something like that happen? Brian stared into the dark cold night. The tears in his eyes weren't even dried yet and it seemed as if the raindrops wouldn't crackle against the window but his face.

Why did he let this happen to himself? Alex, the cute red head with the big blue eyes had managed to get into his bricked heart. And that was the biggest mistake he had ever allowed.

After a hot fuck Brian wanted to kick out the 18 year old, just how he treated his tricks every time. But somehow the boy had convinced him with blowjobs and tears to stay the whole night. It was like a first time for Brian.

But even after it he couldn't get rid of Alex. The young man evolved into his personal stalker, appeared in every place where Brian was too. Still he was somewhat cute, so Brian didn't even feel molested. It was more flattering. And with that hot body and those damn blue eyes Alex managed to seduce the older man again and again.

After a great effort that lasted for months and with his sweet charm he finally made the impossible: Brian realized that he was addicted to Alex. His wooden heart that hadn't believed in love, was melted like butter in the sun. Brian knew that he couldn't live anymore without his little barnacle - as he affectionately called him.

He had chosen Valentines Day to give Alex a ring. This ring should be a symbol, a promise that they would share the future together from now on. Unfortunately the future only lasted a few minutes.

All of a sudden and completely unexpected to Brian, Alex had started to laugh loudly.

"Do you really think I want to spend the rest of my life with such an old guy like you? That would be a waste of time! Although I have to admit that you are still good in bed. The great sex was a nice side effect in this game. But I never wanted a relationship with you. All that I wanted was to overthrow the great Brian - I fuck you only one time - Kinney. And I think I can be proud of myself. You have fucked me like a hundred times and now you even confessed your love. Just you, the coldest bastard of gay Pittsburgh. I think I did deserve my 500 bucks."

Although his legs had felt like pudding and his heart clenched in pain, Brian managed to walk away with an upraised head. Only in his loft he finally allowed himself to break down.
God, he had been so stupid! He had only been the victim of an evil bet. But he should have known it better, he should have known that nobody could love him. Didn't teach him that his parents yet? Not even them had wanted him.

But well, he had learnt his lesson. Something like that would never happen to him again, he swore to himself. And the wall that surrounded his heart was higher than ever before.
