It's February and I'm still getting used to Michigan weather. One minute it's sunny as fuck outside, the next snow is raining from the sky. It's definitely the grayest place I've lived in. Es and I have been living together for over a month. We've been a couple for a year and seven months, July marking our 2 year anniversary.
I proposed to him, and I'll get that story when the time comes. But Es and I are fucking engaged, and I couldn't be happier!
But the story goes on.
Although Hypnos would have preferred I never saw Es again, I’ve visited him several times before making the move up here. The second trip was even more of a learning experience for me.
I was thrilled to see Espresso again.It had been a rough March with Hypnos, and my birthday was coming up so taking the time to just be happy for a few days was relieving in a lot of ways. This was our second trip seeing each other. Still so much could go wrong. What if the first meet was a fluke? What if we find that this time we truly don’t click? Fortunately that wasn’t the case, but it was obviously a minor thought in the background of my head.
Es had some words with Hypnos to ensure he didn’t try to take up our time together. As Hypnos was prominent during the first trip I took, Es and I both wanted our time. And for the most part of that trip, Hypnos was quiet.
Learning to be with a partner who cares about you in return is not something I’m used to. That’s not to say Hypnos didn’t care about me, but when it came to asking about my well-being or comfort, well that was often forgotten. Es did and still does, do everything to make me feel comfortable, loved, and cared for. That’ll always be an adjustment for me (at least I say that now).
With the second trip, we got closer. It was hard to leave the second time than the first, and it always happened that way. It’s like each time we saw each other, our love was solidified. I was worried the opposite would happen.April is so far away so it’s hard for me to remember everything, but I do remember this trip being more sexually charged than our last trip. It was full of new kinks, new discoveries, new experiences.
I remember being stuck at the airport. I have terrible luck with airlines. Almost every flight I have gets delayed. Just how it is, I guess. It’s definitely frustrating in the moment.
I flew into Grand Rapids because the Lansing flight wasn’t happening until later that night and we wanted more time together than less.
I remember he scared me when I got to the airport. I thought someone was trying to grab my bag and I was ready to swing at them. Then I saw him.
Es refuses to keep his tongue in his mouth. It's kinda hot #justsaying
He's adorable when he sleeps
Always the coffee junkie, but I love him <3
He was still living with his ex at the time. They shared a car. Much like Es has a hatred for my ex, I have a strong dislike of his. I tolerate him some days, but that energy is few and far between. I didn’t have much interaction with him this trip.
The first date we had together was an Ethiopian restaurant. Es always knows where to find the best food joints and as authentic as possible. I didn’t know if I’d like it at first, but now I hope we go back someday. It was damn good food.
He's such a dork.
But I love him
We played this bean boozled game. I got most, if not all the bad ones at some point. The jelly beans were literally flavored rotten egg and vomit and it was disgusting, but I somehow got it down. When it comes to non-spicy food, I can be a human garbage disposal. Not to say I don’t get sick, but it doesn’t happen as often as it probably should.
We experimented more that trip. We both found out we were into musk play, and now I think I’ve created a musk junkie. We did this game, like the last trip, where we took furry pics and tried to recreate them. We did it with dice, which Made things interesting. I hardly took pics that time around, but there's a few below.
Then we went on this scavenger hunt in a graveyard. He called it something else, but it’s the same difference. We started searching for things, and we never finished it. I got hella tired by the end. But it was my first venture into exhibitionism. He lead me off the path. We were both still visible, but no one was around and he unzipped my pants. Before I knew it, my cock was in his mouth and I was being blown in a graveyard. It was definitely thrilling, a tad anxious, but thrilling. It’s a moment he and I both return to.
Es and I also went to this trampoline place, where I got winded as fuck. I'm not really a guy who's in shape. The whole place had an obstacle course, Dodgeball, Fighting arena, it was pretty kickass.
We're taking pics of each other here. He's got one of me, but I'm not sure where I put it.
There wasn't much NSFW picture taking on this trip. Though that grows as we meet up more and more.
It was harder to leave the second time around. If I could have afforded it, I would have stayed one extra day, but I couldn't.
The moment I landed in Chicago, I got into a fight with Hypnos. He saw some of the pictures Es and I took and was immediately jealous. The fighting was a constant for him and me, but I was growing tired. I was growing unhappy.
Hypnos was upset that "I never took him anywhere," or "I never take him out on dates." It was something he and I never really resolved. There's a lot of unresolved arguments between us.
A week after I got back from seeing Es, I told Hypnos I wasn't happy in our relationship.
