Stan tiptoed nervously through the dusty roads of the small settlement. Hastily stopping a pile of wicker baskets from toppling, over, he made his way out to the gate.
"Brother Trager?" he whispered, urgently. He wasn't comfortable with a male/male relationship, but just as he had reasoned that a triple-donation was better than termination, he'd reasoned that giving in would be better than living with the guilt of Trager's suicide.
"Brother Stanley?" Trager whispered, his voice as hopeful as a child who is about to receive an ice cream sundae with extra candy toppings.
Stan walked over to the gate and paused. "Better to be honest." he told himself. He stepped forward. "Brother Trager..."
"Brother Stanley." Trager laughed, his tears of pain turning to tears of happiness. "You came. I knew you would. I knew you would listen to your heart. Let us break the rules, Stanley. Let us love each other as we were meant to. Freely. Without the rules to keep us apart."
"Um, look, I'm not all that comfortable with... this..." Stan told Trager.
"It is understandable." Trager said, as he lead Stan out beyond the gate.
"Where are we going?" Stan asked.
"I know of a place where we can be alone."Trager told him. "No one will be able to hear us, so we won't have to be afraid to express our love."
"So.. why me? Just out of curiosity." Stan asked. "I mean, its apparent you prefer men. But why not someone from here, someone you grew up with. Or... Brother Kai perhaps?"
They had arrived at the place Trager had mentioned, a quiet cavern.Trager lead Stan down into it and into a room where candles and books were kept.
"Brother Kai is very handsome. But I prefer you, Brother Stanley. Besides, the ... No I can't say that. I would not be proper to make such a reference to the Brother of Brothers."
"Brother Randor feels... about Kai.. the same way you do about me?" Stan guessed. "Oh, boy. Um... I think we'd better get back and..."
"Why the rush?" We have many hours before the waking time. Let us take our time and enjoy our love." he undressed Stan, carefully pulling off each article of clothing until Stan stood there, naked.
"Um... we don't have to do everything do we?" Stan asked, nervously.
"No." Trager told him. "But I *want* to. I want to experience everything about you. I want to show you my love to its fullest."
"That's very sweet, Brother Trager, really... but...."
"I understand." Trager nodded. "I was also scared the first time it happened. But the experience is unlike any other. You will not regret it, Borther Stanley, I promise."
