Matthew quickened his pace as he hurried down the path. Bushes grew to either side, and trees branched overhead, a little green haven next to the busy road that he could still hear just a few metres away. Five minutes earlier he had parked up in a layby, and not daring to look around or meet anybody’s eye, he had set off along this dead length of road, long ago abandoned as the main route had been straightened and converted to a dual carriageway many years before. It hadn’t taken long for nature to reclaim the space and it got progressively greener and more private the further he went until suddenly everything opened up and his way was blocked by a fence as the path unexpectedly stopped just short of where the major road continued on its way.

Matthew stopped and tried to calm his breathing and racing heart. He looked back into the bushes, turned and slowly walked back the way he had come, this time taking it all in.

He had read about this place online. A cruising site for men to indulge in sex. The idea didn’t exactly appeal, but it did make him curious. He wasn’t entirely sure what he would find, but he had decided to come and look. Just look, and maybe get some vicarious excitement from knowing what went on.

Thankfully he hadn’t seen anybody else. There were other cars parked in the layby but he had rushed off quickly down the path, not wanting to draw attention. Just to look at the place he reminded himself.

As he walked back he carefully looked around. He could now see little torn packets littered about in the bushes. He assumed they were condom wrappers and he turned one over with his foot. It was a sachet of lube. “God”, he thought.

Every now and then he found other discarded items. Small bottles of poppers and little metal canisters. His heart quickened as he imagined what had been going on in the very spot where he was standing right now, amongst the detritus of other people’s secrets.

As he continued back towards where he had parked the car he saw two men walking towards him. They slowed as they approached.

“Are you looking for anything?”, said the first man. He was a good deal older than Matthew’s thirty-eight years. Late forties or early fifties with thinning sandy coloured hair and glasses. He reminded Matthew of his old physics teacher.

“No”, replied Matthew nervously. The man seemed to look at him sternly, but maybe that was just association with memories of his teacher colouring the encounter.

“I want to try sucking cock.” Matthew was shocked to find that he had just blurted this out. He suddenly felt scared. “I’ve never done it before”, he added.

The two men looked at each other. The second man was older than the first, but he fitted the stereotypical description of a gay man that Matthew understood. Late fifties very tall with a shaven head and wearing a leather bikers jacket.

“Alright”, said the first man. He loosened his trousers and took out his penis. Matthew was shocked that he was suddenly in this situation. It wasn’t part of the plan.

“Go on”, said the man holding it out. Matthew, not wanting to disappoint, crouched before it. It looked clean, he thought, it must be safe surely? It was semi hard and getting bigger as the man slowly massaged it in his hand. Seized by the moment Matthew suddenly opened his mouth and wrapped his lips around it.

The taste wasn’t unpleasant. Aromatic soap or body spray he thought. The feeling of it stiffening in his mouth made him excited. He ran his tongue around the length, sucked and bobbed his head up and down as he had seen women do in porn. There was a deeper salty taste emerging that drove him on to suck harder and take it deeper in his mouth. He wasn’t sure if he was doing it right but the man seemed to be enjoying it.

“Get your cock out. Let’s see it”, said the man looking down at him.

Matthew awkwardly unbuckled his belt as he crouched. The man’s cock still in his mouth. He reached into his pants to release his own cock. It was hard and he started to masturbate as he continued to suck the man.

He wasn’t sure whether it was because he was trying to do two things at once, but suddenly the man pulled away, still massaging himself slowly with one hand. He hadn’t cum and Matthew felt as if he had disappointed him.

“That was good”, he said looking at Matthew. “Stand up”.

Matthew stood and noticed that both men were looking at his cock and smiling. Matthew suddeny felt proud of his thick seven inches in a way he had never before.

“You’d be popular round here”, said the first man and he nodded at the second man who remained silent but smiling. The second man crouched and started to suck Matthew’s cock while the other man continued to play with himself.
