00:04:04,400 --> 00:04:08,000
but he's still only three wishes in and he hasn't

38
00:04:08,039 --> 00:04:11,599
even approached the eternal problem with his father, and he

is struggling with his sexuality. You can know this podcast

a sigh, letting go of any tension, any stress. For

inner passions as you listened to my vice and veil

51
00:05:11,439 --> 00:05:16,160
the story moving through your body as you enjoy tonight's show.

52
00:05:17,600 --> 00:05:21,399
The noise of the flea market vanished once again. Martin

53
00:05:21,480 --> 00:05:24,839
paused for a moment to get his bearings. He was

54
00:05:24,879 --> 00:05:29,120
in a room that much was obvious. A dim light

55
00:05:29,199 --> 00:05:32,839
stood in the corner, creating an audio of shadows that

56
00:05:32,959 --> 00:05:37,839
danced around the walls in the middle of a bed, but

57
00:05:38,000 --> 00:05:42,720
not just any bed, but one dripping with opulence. Martin

58
00:05:42,839 --> 00:05:45,199
had to say it was probably the most comfortable looking

59
00:05:45,279 --> 00:05:50,240
bed he had ever seen, king size, maybe California king,

60
00:05:50,959 --> 00:05:55,759
with a thick, plush comforter and big, inviting, fluffy pillows.

61
00:05:56,399 --> 00:05:59,839
Even in the room's darkness, the bedding seemed to glow,

62
00:06:00,079 --> 00:06:07,600
only inviting him closer. Martin's fingertips caressed the material, groaning

63
00:06:07,639 --> 00:06:11,920
at the silky and enticing touch of the bedding. Suddenly,

64
00:06:11,959 --> 00:06:16,480
the mattress shifted, taking Martin aback. His sparkling blue eyes

65
00:06:17,240 --> 00:06:21,680
watched him with intensity. He was getting actually quite comfortable

66
00:06:21,720 --> 00:06:26,720
with the shadow of the man slid forward and perched

67
00:06:26,759 --> 00:06:30,399
at the foot of the bed, his eyes tracing up

68
00:06:30,439 --> 00:06:36,879
Martin's chest, darkening and narrowing before holding his gaze. He

69
00:06:37,160 --> 00:06:42,959
see it through Martin as the stranger's fingers slid teasingly

70
00:06:43,079 --> 00:06:47,560
up the buttons of his shirt. You are overdressed, Martin,

71
00:06:48,519 --> 00:06:52,959
he said, in a tone deep dark and laced with hunger,

72
00:06:53,560 --> 00:06:57,879
as he probed inside his shirt, releasing a single button.

73
00:06:59,360 --> 00:07:03,160
Martin under the fingertip that seemed to burn at his

74
00:07:03,319 --> 00:07:08,199
chest as if it was sending scorches of desire within him.

75
00:07:08,519 --> 00:07:13,079
Even though the touch was so sensual, so light, so provocative,

76
00:07:13,639 --> 00:07:16,759
the weight of it made Martin's chest heave, would need.

77
00:07:17,920 --> 00:07:22,759
There was an undeniable chemistry between them, a hunger. Martin

78
00:07:22,920 --> 00:07:26,839
just couldn't decide if it was imagined or not. Jesus,

79
00:07:26,920 --> 00:07:30,800
was this man even real or just someone the genie created?

80
00:07:32,040 --> 00:07:36,439
Martin swallowed hard, more confused than ever as this stranger,

81
00:07:37,120 --> 00:07:41,759
perhaps this figment of his imagination, or whatever the hell he was,

82
00:07:42,759 --> 00:07:47,519
released another button, sliding his hand firmly over his chest,

83
00:07:48,279 --> 00:07:52,720
his fingernails teasing around his erect nipple. All the time

84
00:07:52,800 --> 00:07:57,439
their gazes were locked, embraced by a shared fire between them.

85
00:07:57,680 --> 00:08:00,279
As Martin felt the top button of his shoe it

86
00:08:00,319 --> 00:08:06,000
fall open, the strange his gaze dropped away, a tiny

87
00:08:06,160 --> 00:08:10,319
smile playing on his lips, before kissing gently over his

88
00:08:10,480 --> 00:08:15,319
chest until he reached Martin's nipple. Heat sparked out Martin's

89
00:08:15,360 --> 00:08:19,600
body and his legs buckled slightly as a man's warm,

90
00:08:19,879 --> 00:08:26,199
gritty tongue teased around his erec nuve. Holy shit, Martin

91
00:08:26,279 --> 00:08:31,879
huttered as this man continued persecuting his electrified nipple with

92
00:08:32,120 --> 00:08:36,559
deliciously painful lashes of his tongue while loosening his buckle

93
00:08:37,000 --> 00:08:39,759
and pushing at his pants until they were falling around

94
00:08:39,799 --> 00:08:44,360
his knees. If he was just dreaming or hallucinating. God

95
00:08:44,480 --> 00:08:48,279
help him, He hoped it didn't end. Every inch of

96
00:08:48,279 --> 00:08:52,480
his body erupted with heat. A bright array of teeth

97
00:08:53,120 --> 00:08:55,679
shined in the darkness as a man spoke with a

98
00:08:55,759 --> 00:09:00,600
hint of a smile, bending his lips. You're going to

99
00:09:00,679 --> 00:09:04,320
fuck my ass. Well, let's give you a little spit

100
00:09:04,440 --> 00:09:07,960
to get you started, and he said, as his head

101
00:09:08,000 --> 00:09:13,000
dipped lower, his eyes peering into Martin's. As his lips

102
00:09:13,080 --> 00:09:17,200
slid along Martin's shaft and the sensation of his stubbled

103
00:09:17,200 --> 00:09:21,159
lips moving over his cock sent a shock wave of

104
00:09:21,200 --> 00:09:24,399
pleasure through Martin's body. He worried he might just make

105
00:09:24,519 --> 00:09:28,720
him come here and now. Through the room's shadows, Martin

106
00:09:28,720 --> 00:09:32,039
could see his reflection in a mirror. There was something

107
00:09:32,279 --> 00:09:37,279
incredibly erotic and almost magical watching the back of a

108
00:09:37,279 --> 00:09:41,639
stranger's head bob up and down in perfect time with

109
00:09:41,759 --> 00:09:47,279
the sensations moving through his own cock, releasing Martin's erection

110
00:09:47,919 --> 00:09:52,320
from the undeniable delights of his mouth. The stranger whispered,

111
00:09:53,240 --> 00:09:57,919
I prepared myself for you. I am positively dripping with

112
00:09:58,120 --> 00:10:03,440
loub He shifted and pressed his buttons firmly against Martin's

113
00:10:03,480 --> 00:10:10,639
cock gyreating to torment him that little bit more. Martin's

114
00:10:10,639 --> 00:10:14,559
mouth went dry as a lump moved up his throat.

115
00:10:15,360 --> 00:10:21,960
I've never Martin began saying, suddenly feeling out of his depth. Oh,

116
00:10:22,080 --> 00:10:26,159
you just press yourself into me slowly. I've viewed some

117
00:10:26,320 --> 00:10:32,600
of your CBD loop, so I'm very relaxed, the stranger said,

118
00:10:32,759 --> 00:10:37,200
moving his ash cheeks up and down Martin's cock. The

119
00:10:37,240 --> 00:10:40,759
smell of the CBD did indeed hang in the air,

120
00:10:41,519 --> 00:10:47,120
his familiarity comforting as Martin's fingers grasped around his hard

121
00:10:47,200 --> 00:10:52,120
cock and teased the man's rosette. Watching the man reach

122
00:10:52,240 --> 00:10:56,080
behind him and pulled the glows of his house apart,

123
00:10:56,559 --> 00:11:02,120
forming a welcome invitation for Martin's rock hard erection. He

124
00:11:02,399 --> 00:11:06,080
poured in Martin's belly, and his heart began pounding so

125
00:11:06,279 --> 00:11:10,639
damned hard that this stranger had to hear it as

126
00:11:10,679 --> 00:11:15,080
his fingers grasped his pelvis. As he pushed his cockhead

127
00:11:15,320 --> 00:11:20,840
slowly through the tight ring of muscle fuck, Martin sighed

128
00:11:21,480 --> 00:11:25,600
as a warm caress of exquisite pleasure pulsed along his

129
00:11:25,759 --> 00:11:30,200
shaft at the feel of the man's ass trembling and

130
00:11:30,320 --> 00:11:35,320
gripping his erection. Looking in the mirror, Martin could make

131
00:11:35,360 --> 00:11:39,879
out the man's eyes, burning with an intensity even from

132
00:11:39,879 --> 00:11:44,360
within the shadows. Everything about him urged Martin to press

133
00:11:44,399 --> 00:11:49,320
deeper and harder, lust and heat and need billowing through

134
00:11:49,399 --> 00:11:52,879
him as he pushed himself balls deep inside the man,

135
00:11:53,399 --> 00:11:58,039
something he'd imagined himself doing a hundred times over, but

136
00:11:58,200 --> 00:12:01,360
something he never thought he'd have the old opportunity to

137
00:12:01,399 --> 00:12:06,639
go through with dizzy with lust, his body pulsing with pleasure,

138
00:12:07,039 --> 00:12:09,519
it was almost as if the shadows were swirling in

139
00:12:09,559 --> 00:12:13,639
the mirror. Then suddenly, a pair of dark brown eyes

140
00:12:13,720 --> 00:12:18,480
appeared in the reflection, hovering just over Martin's shoulder. Her

141
00:12:18,519 --> 00:12:24,320
face followed, weld chiseled cheekbones framing the most beautiful smile

142
00:12:24,480 --> 00:12:28,720
Martin had ever seen, made even more intense by the dark,

143
00:12:28,799 --> 00:12:33,440
goaty beard that adorned the man's chin. Martin inhaled, and

144
00:12:33,559 --> 00:12:35,879
it was almost as if the smell of the cbet

145
00:12:36,159 --> 00:12:41,039
loop grew stronger as he felt a hard, long rock

146
00:12:41,799 --> 00:12:48,120
pressing against him. As a genie parted his buttocks, spreading him,

147
00:12:48,919 --> 00:12:54,759
readying him. Martin held his breath, his heart pounding inside

148
00:12:54,759 --> 00:12:57,919
his chest as he anticipated the pain he had heard

149
00:12:57,960 --> 00:13:02,879
so much about, but there was none. It was almost

150
00:13:02,960 --> 00:13:07,279
as if it had been bypassed completely, and Martin felt

151
00:13:07,320 --> 00:13:11,799
nothing but the delightful pleasure of the genie's cock thrusting

152
00:13:11,840 --> 00:13:16,919
inside him. Well, I am a genie, the genie said,

153
00:13:17,360 --> 00:13:21,720
clearly reading Martin's thoughts, as well as following his rhythm,

154
00:13:22,360 --> 00:13:26,399
thrusting in perfect time with him. The dual sensation of

155
00:13:26,440 --> 00:13:30,559
his cock inside the stranger while the genies pushed inside

156
00:13:30,639 --> 00:13:34,639
him made his whole body hung with pleasure he never

157
00:13:34,720 --> 00:13:39,000
knew existed. His cock was harder than it had ever

158
00:13:39,080 --> 00:13:42,559
been in his life as he pounded into the stranger's

159
00:13:42,559 --> 00:13:47,519
ass while having his own virginal hole taken. The genie's

160
00:13:47,559 --> 00:13:51,360
hand pressed over his stomach, up over his chest and

161
00:13:51,399 --> 00:13:56,840
massaging his tight nipples, pinching them, accelerating the shock weye

162
00:13:56,879 --> 00:14:00,360
of pleasure moving through Martin's body and for filling a

163
00:14:00,440 --> 00:14:04,480
lifetime of trained and fantasies that he never thought possible.

164
00:14:05,879 --> 00:14:10,399
Martin sunk deeper, bottoming out into the stranger as his

165
00:14:10,600 --> 00:14:13,720
orgasm built and the feel of having his cock inside

166
00:14:13,799 --> 00:14:20,039
him had impulsing faster, almost urgently, while he whimpered and gasped,

167
00:14:20,639 --> 00:14:24,399
watching the three faces in the mirror. While positive, he

168
00:14:24,399 --> 00:14:27,799
could feel the pleasure vibrating between the three of them.

169
00:14:28,120 --> 00:14:31,840
Holy fuck, the sensation of the man's ass gripping his

170
00:14:31,960 --> 00:14:36,679
cock while his hull was being pounded, creating an urgency

171
00:14:36,759 --> 00:14:40,759
in Martin like he'd never imagined. He needed to come,

172
00:14:41,240 --> 00:14:46,639
the genie pressing inside him, filling him, pushing over that spot,

173
00:14:47,360 --> 00:14:51,320
just making the need more desperate. Without warning, he erupted,

174
00:14:52,159 --> 00:14:55,639
flooding the stranger with come, while the genie grasped his

175
00:14:55,799 --> 00:15:01,039
hips and spurted hotly into his ass, watching the three

176
00:15:01,080 --> 00:15:04,399
of them in the mirror, all coming together in a hot,

177
00:15:05,120 --> 00:15:10,960
wild frenzy, all writhing against each other. At Martin's body quivering,

178
00:15:11,759 --> 00:15:15,720
his chest thrumming with a million emotions, and mind drunk

179
00:15:15,759 --> 00:15:18,919
with thoughts of the future. This was what he had

180
00:15:18,919 --> 00:15:23,360
always wanted. Top or bottoming with a man, it didn't

181
00:15:23,399 --> 00:15:27,120
matter to him. He wanted to feel a man shudder

182
00:15:27,159 --> 00:15:31,320
beneath him, hear a man moment against him. He just

183
00:15:31,399 --> 00:15:36,279
wanted to feel and experience and breathe each other's breath

184
00:15:37,360 --> 00:15:42,840
and come together as one. Fuck. There was a moment

185
00:15:42,879 --> 00:15:46,440
of confusion, and that Martin was lying on the bed.

186
00:15:47,279 --> 00:15:51,039
The two men sat over him with their lips exploring

187
00:15:51,120 --> 00:15:58,279
his body, soft, sensually, provocatively. The trembles from there after

188
00:15:58,399 --> 00:16:01,840
glow just seemed to grow with each of their touches,

189
00:16:02,600 --> 00:16:08,559
the sensations culminating on Martin's still pulsing erection, his muscles

190
00:16:08,559 --> 00:16:13,679
and bones and everything in between crawling with pleasure and forcing.

191
00:16:13,720 --> 00:16:17,559
The last drops have come to weep from him as

192
00:16:17,600 --> 00:16:23,759
two sets of warm and soft lips moved down his stomach,

193
00:16:24,759 --> 00:16:29,399
taking turns to drink his warm come. As his stomach

194
00:16:29,480 --> 00:16:32,679
burned from the inside out, and every curse word he

195
00:16:32,759 --> 00:16:36,159
knew fell from his mouth, he just experienced the best

196
00:16:36,240 --> 00:16:39,960
sex he'd ever imagined, his heart still thundering as he

197
00:16:40,000 --> 00:16:45,120
reached out to find something to grasp for sanity, but

198
00:16:45,240 --> 00:16:49,519
only finding the edge of Rosy's storm. His eyes were

199
00:16:49,559 --> 00:16:53,679
shock white open. The colored mists rolled around him in

200
00:16:53,759 --> 00:16:58,840
what Martin would only describe as a lazy way. Confused,

201
00:16:59,480 --> 00:17:02,639
he was a I'm full of questions, questions he was

202
00:17:02,679 --> 00:17:07,960
finding difficult to articulate. Am I dreaming? Am I losing

203
00:17:08,000 --> 00:17:14,480
my mind? Is any of this reality? Suddenly, the returning

204
00:17:14,599 --> 00:17:19,960
voice was back in his head. Yes, he's real, how,

205
00:17:20,279 --> 00:17:23,759
Martin asked, not waiting for the genie to read his mind.

206
00:17:24,839 --> 00:17:27,799
He's preparing for work at the moment. He keeps getting

207
00:17:27,920 --> 00:17:31,359
very intense images of you. So he was a man

208
00:17:31,440 --> 00:17:37,559
in the club last night. Sure was a warm glow

209
00:17:37,720 --> 00:17:40,880
spread over Martin. He hadn't been sure if the man

210
00:17:40,920 --> 00:17:43,920
had even noticed him, or if he had been interested

211
00:17:43,960 --> 00:17:47,119
in him at all. Hearing that he was real and

212
00:17:47,279 --> 00:17:51,480
interested made his heart leap more than a little. He

213
00:17:51,519 --> 00:17:55,960
has so many questions, so much doubt. How could any

214
00:17:56,000 --> 00:18:02,839
of this be real? This was storybook stuff. But Martin's

215
00:18:02,839 --> 00:18:08,079
mind lingered, I can't make people want each other. The

216
00:18:08,160 --> 00:18:11,119
genie's voice suddenly said, in the back of Martin's mind,

217
00:18:11,799 --> 00:18:16,119
as if reading his thoughts, I can't change who people are.

218
00:18:17,480 --> 00:18:21,359
Martin wasn't sure he understood, but at least he persuaded

219
00:18:21,440 --> 00:18:25,319
himself he thought he did, and allowed himself to wallow

220
00:18:25,359 --> 00:18:30,359
in that feeling again. Just like that, the sharp edge

221
00:18:30,359 --> 00:18:34,599
of the ogre of his father's voice appeared, roaring from

222
00:18:34,640 --> 00:18:38,440
the dark recesses of his mind and shattering the fragile

223
00:18:38,480 --> 00:18:43,160
beauty of the moment. Tears stunned his eyes. Even in

224
00:18:43,240 --> 00:18:46,799
this moment, he was not safe he could not have

225
00:18:47,039 --> 00:18:52,880
this one time, the colored mist tightened around him. There

226
00:18:52,920 --> 00:18:56,160
was a warmth to it, a closeness that felt, for

227
00:18:56,359 --> 00:19:00,880
all the world like he was being hugged. Truth stole

228
00:19:00,920 --> 00:19:04,039
into his mind. There was no miracle that would change

229
00:19:04,039 --> 00:19:08,319
his father. He could wish all he wanted, and as

230
00:19:08,400 --> 00:19:12,000
much as the genie, couldn't dictate whether the man in

231
00:19:12,039 --> 00:19:15,160
the club found him attractive or not. Nor could he

232
00:19:15,279 --> 00:19:20,759
change how his father saw his homosexuality. It had been

233
00:19:20,799 --> 00:19:23,960
there since he was a teenager. His father recalled him

234
00:19:24,000 --> 00:19:27,000
kissing his best friend from the soccer club and set

235
00:19:27,039 --> 00:19:31,119
a penance that lasted weeks. After that, he had tried

236
00:19:31,119 --> 00:19:35,039
to reaffirm how disgusting it was that Martin was sexually

237
00:19:35,079 --> 00:19:37,960
attracted to men. In his heart, he knew it wasn't

238
00:19:38,000 --> 00:19:41,240
his father that needed to change. That would never happen.

239
00:19:42,799 --> 00:19:46,759
Martin would have to change. The mist paoled In closer,

240
00:19:47,440 --> 00:19:51,640
a reassuring Chloe embracing him. He wished he could find

241
00:19:51,640 --> 00:19:56,119
a solution to have the strength to be himself despite

242
00:19:56,119 --> 00:19:59,880
his father's pigoted nature, but he just couldn't see a

243
00:20:00,079 --> 00:20:04,359
way forward. He just couldn't think of anything to wish

244
00:20:04,400 --> 00:20:08,359
for that would make a difference somewhere in the midst

245
00:20:08,440 --> 00:20:12,440
that engulfed him. The street in the flea market disappeared.

246
00:20:13,440 --> 00:20:17,720
Closing his eyes, Martin could only hope and wonder where

247
00:20:17,759 --> 00:20:21,039
he might be going this time, trusting that wherever this

248
00:20:21,240 --> 00:20:27,599
genie was taking him, things would be better. Martin shifted uncomfortably.

249
00:20:28,240 --> 00:20:31,799
The wooden pew he sat on got no better. He

250
00:20:31,799 --> 00:20:36,000
had always wondered which sadist had designed these, as they

251
00:20:36,000 --> 00:20:38,799
were obviously made to make them as painful as possible

252
00:20:38,839 --> 00:20:42,759
to sit on. Without opening his eyes, he was aware

253
00:20:42,759 --> 00:20:46,480
of his father's presence, the same tension crackling in the

254
00:20:46,519 --> 00:20:52,319
air that was always there, the same overriding feeling of disappointment.

255
00:20:53,720 --> 00:20:59,000
A voice spoke in the distance, not the disembodied voice

256
00:20:59,039 --> 00:21:03,119
of the genie, but the deep, resonant and warm voice

257
00:21:03,119 --> 00:21:07,000
of a man a past had not known, yet strangely familiar.

258
00:21:08,359 --> 00:21:13,720
Opening his eyes slowly, a familiar, sparkling blue gaze watched

259
00:21:13,720 --> 00:21:18,119
the congregation while thick lips that heated him through his

260
00:21:18,240 --> 00:21:23,000
bones spoke with passion. God loves us all for who

261
00:21:23,039 --> 00:21:26,519
we are. He loves us because his love beats in

262
00:21:26,599 --> 00:21:30,319
all our hearts. Yet there are those who would forget

263
00:21:30,359 --> 00:21:33,480
to focus on that love. It is a gift like

264
00:21:33,559 --> 00:21:38,200
no other, above all others, And there is no greater

265
00:21:38,319 --> 00:21:41,119
sin than to ignore the blessings that God has given you,

266
00:21:42,000 --> 00:21:46,400
in whatever way he has gifted them to you. When

267
00:21:46,400 --> 00:21:50,440
we hang on to our outdated, bigoted ideas, we forsake

268
00:21:50,519 --> 00:21:54,960
that love. We are tainting it with our own human insecurities.

269
00:21:55,960 --> 00:21:59,519
Let us remember that we are all God's children. He

270
00:21:59,559 --> 00:22:03,079
has made as he wanted. He blessed us with the

271
00:22:03,119 --> 00:22:07,880
ability to explore true and deep love in whatever form

272
00:22:07,920 --> 00:22:13,200
that might be. The pastor paused his beautiful eyes scanning

273
00:22:13,240 --> 00:22:17,799
the congregation as a fell on Martin. He seemed to

274
00:22:17,839 --> 00:22:22,519
smile faintly, as if there was a mutual understanding something

275
00:22:22,559 --> 00:22:28,119
he thought was private, but given his father's uncomfortable shifting,

276
00:22:28,599 --> 00:22:33,119
he suspected it maybe not so much. The pastor's gaze

277
00:22:33,160 --> 00:22:37,319
turned hard, almost severe, as it fell upon his father.

278
00:22:38,160 --> 00:22:40,680
Before you cast out on your love for each other,

279
00:22:41,720 --> 00:22:45,079
he continued, with a stern tone. Think of how your

280
00:22:45,119 --> 00:22:48,160
life would be if you didn't have each other at all.

281
00:22:48,759 --> 00:22:52,319
Appreciate and love the beautiful thing that you share, or

282
00:22:52,359 --> 00:22:56,799
whatever level you happen to share it. The congregation sat

283
00:22:56,920 --> 00:23:01,880
still with a pin dripping silence, as if focused nowhere

284
00:23:02,359 --> 00:23:05,839
but on the young pastor before them. And then there

285
00:23:05,880 --> 00:23:09,599
was a sudden burst of music and the spell shattered,

286
00:23:10,200 --> 00:23:14,640
the congregation, joining the pastorn near him. The service seemed

287
00:23:14,640 --> 00:23:18,480
to pass quickly, or maybe it was because Martin's mind

288
00:23:18,720 --> 00:23:21,440
kept flicking back the two last times he had met.

289
00:23:22,559 --> 00:23:26,680
Martin had never imagined he could really enjoy this, and

290
00:23:26,759 --> 00:23:31,160
yet here they both were, him and the pastor. Really

291
00:23:32,079 --> 00:23:34,880
that would make for an interesting conversation with his father.

292
00:23:35,960 --> 00:23:41,200
But was this real? The cold realization hit him like

293
00:23:41,279 --> 00:23:44,799
a lead punch to the gut. The genie had created

294
00:23:44,839 --> 00:23:48,279
all of this, all of it, and chances were that

295
00:23:48,319 --> 00:23:52,039
none of it was real. He was probably still sitting

296
00:23:52,079 --> 00:23:55,119
next to the flea market in some sort of weird

297
00:23:55,200 --> 00:23:59,880
waking trance. A bleak sadness filled his heart as he

298
00:24:00,079 --> 00:24:04,440
knelt to take the Eucharist. The pastor stood before him,

299
00:24:04,599 --> 00:24:09,279
offering him salvation. Martin looked up at the beautiful face

300
00:24:09,359 --> 00:24:15,480
before him, so sensitive and more yes, so strong. How

301
00:24:15,480 --> 00:24:19,079
could this possibly not be real? A tears stung at

302
00:24:19,079 --> 00:24:24,160
Martin's cheek as he closed his eyes, accepting the blood

303
00:24:24,400 --> 00:24:28,160
and the body. It's very real that returning voice of

304
00:24:28,160 --> 00:24:31,119
the genie said in his head what Martin had never

305
00:24:31,160 --> 00:24:34,880
expected a genie to enter church. Obviously he had been wrong,

306
00:24:35,359 --> 00:24:38,759
and a grin appeared on the face next to the pastors,

307
00:24:39,559 --> 00:24:44,839
framed by that exquisitely trimmed goaty beard. Does he get everywhere?

308
00:24:45,640 --> 00:24:48,440
The thought leapt to Martin's mind before he could stop it,

309
00:24:49,240 --> 00:24:54,079
aware of the consequences anywhere or want to go? The

310
00:24:54,160 --> 00:24:59,240
voice answered, somehow weinking in its intonation, Martin closed his

311
00:24:59,319 --> 00:25:03,319
eyes in a sund prayer. Definitely not a wish, just

312
00:25:03,359 --> 00:25:09,519
a prayer. Opening his eyes again, Martin looked back up, disappointed,

313
00:25:09,640 --> 00:25:14,279
but not surprised that the pastor and the church were gone.

314
00:25:14,400 --> 00:25:17,000
He was indeed back at the end of the flea market,

315
00:25:17,720 --> 00:25:22,839
sitting the colored mists circling around him, although it was

316
00:25:22,920 --> 00:25:27,200
now suspiciously quiet. Martin looked down at the bottle in

317
00:25:27,200 --> 00:25:32,319
his hands. Whatever the strange drug captured inside the hallucination

318
00:25:32,440 --> 00:25:35,720
had been fun, but it was getting close to time

319
00:25:36,240 --> 00:25:40,759
to attend the service, and faced the disappointment of his father.

320
00:25:42,039 --> 00:25:47,039
Looking around him. Rosie was barroning through the crowds, clutching

321
00:25:47,079 --> 00:25:52,000
some sandwich that seemed to be hemorrhaging sauce. Sorry, my lover,

322
00:25:52,960 --> 00:25:56,240
Rosie said, as she approached him. So many people a

323
00:25:56,240 --> 00:25:59,720
little old lady like me really struggled to get through.

324
00:26:01,400 --> 00:26:06,319
Martin eyed her suspiciously. There wasn't a bone of vulnerability

325
00:26:06,359 --> 00:26:09,880
in her body, he doubted very much she had even

326
00:26:09,920 --> 00:26:14,480
the slightest struggle. How much for the bottle, he asked,

327
00:26:14,839 --> 00:26:19,480
holding up happy to junk, she started, you can have

328
00:26:19,559 --> 00:26:22,200
it for looking after the stool. Be glad to get

329
00:26:22,279 --> 00:26:25,160
rid of that genie. To be honest with you, doesn't

330
00:26:25,160 --> 00:26:29,000
get my head day all night. Go on, need some privacy,

331
00:26:30,680 --> 00:26:35,400
Martin stared at Rosy, I sure want to say. He

332
00:26:35,480 --> 00:26:39,319
suddenly wondered how many of her wishes had involved young men,

333
00:26:40,279 --> 00:26:42,960
and if the genie had got involved with any of those.

334
00:26:43,480 --> 00:26:47,160
Thanking Rosy, he left and then dropped the bottle off

335
00:26:47,160 --> 00:26:51,640
at his apartment before returning for church, more than a

336
00:26:51,680 --> 00:26:55,319
little concerned though the thoughts might drop into his mind

337
00:26:56,000 --> 00:27:00,519
that a certain genie might take advantage of The bottle

338
00:27:00,559 --> 00:27:03,519
had most definitely moved in his hand as he placed

339
00:27:03,519 --> 00:27:08,000
it on the kitchen table, almost like an irritated child

340
00:27:08,160 --> 00:27:10,400
that knew he had been left out of an event

341
00:27:11,000 --> 00:27:14,480
just because taking him was too much hasshle. A thought

342
00:27:14,519 --> 00:27:18,759
crashed into his mind, what about the fifth wish? I'll

343
00:27:18,799 --> 00:27:22,240
save it for another day, Martin said, as he closed

344
00:27:22,240 --> 00:27:26,799
the apartment door and headed back toward the church. He

345
00:27:26,960 --> 00:27:29,960
was very early, but wanted to see if anything the

346
00:27:30,039 --> 00:27:34,880
genie had shown him was actually true. The church building

347
00:27:35,519 --> 00:27:39,039
certainly looked the same as he approached it, although the

348
00:27:39,079 --> 00:27:42,839
doors were opened. That said, Martin had never turned up

349
00:27:42,839 --> 00:27:45,839
to church early before, so didn't know if that was

350
00:27:45,920 --> 00:27:51,079
normal or not. Once inside, Martin was surprised to see

351
00:27:51,119 --> 00:27:55,480
fresh flowers. He hadn't ever noticed him in the church before.

352
00:27:55,920 --> 00:28:00,240
As he took a glance around, Hi on, Chris, the

353
00:28:00,319 --> 00:28:04,960
new pastor, a voice said brightly from behind, catching Martin

354
00:28:05,039 --> 00:28:10,440
off guard. Turning around, Martin started to say, hi are Martin,

355
00:28:11,079 --> 00:28:14,640
before his voice was cut short as his eyes sank

356
00:28:14,720 --> 00:28:18,200
into the ocean's deep pools of blue that looked into his.

357
00:28:19,960 --> 00:28:24,000
The pastor stopped suddenly as his caye fell on Martin's.

358
00:28:24,720 --> 00:28:29,000
The air between them crackled with the electricity of unspoken lust.

359
00:28:29,440 --> 00:28:33,079
It's not just me, then, I guess, Martin eventually ventured,

360
00:28:34,160 --> 00:28:40,799
shattering the silence. No. Chris responded slowly, his eyes never

361
00:28:40,920 --> 00:28:48,160
leaving Martin's. So you're real, Martin asked, and kay. Martin

362
00:28:48,240 --> 00:28:51,799
looked around at the empty building. The word gay seemed

363
00:28:51,839 --> 00:28:56,000
to be echoed strangely in the confines of the walls.

364
00:28:57,640 --> 00:29:03,960
Yes on both counts, replied, that beautiful smile appearing between

365
00:29:04,000 --> 00:29:08,440
those wonderful cheek bones once again, Chris took a step closer,

366
00:29:09,039 --> 00:29:14,839
his hand drifting down Martin's jaw, stroking him affectionately. Suddenly

367
00:29:14,880 --> 00:29:18,839
realizing that the others would turn up soon, Martin quickly said,

368
00:29:19,400 --> 00:29:23,400
my father would be here soon. Oh, and he doesn't

369
00:29:23,400 --> 00:29:29,519
approve of you being gay. Martin shook his head despondently. Well,

370
00:29:29,759 --> 00:29:33,160
I've worked with people like that for years, Chris responded,

371
00:29:33,559 --> 00:29:37,799
with his hands still resting on Martin's shoulder. We can't

372
00:29:37,839 --> 00:29:41,359
change the mind straight away, but over time we can,

373
00:29:42,559 --> 00:29:46,279
he smiled softly. In the meantime, I could do with

374
00:29:46,319 --> 00:29:49,160
a hand to help me get familiar with everything around here,

375
00:29:50,359 --> 00:29:56,240
his hand dropping reaching for Martin's, their fingers entwining tightly.

376
00:29:57,200 --> 00:30:01,759
Martin thought about Chris's words, contrasted them with the advice

377
00:30:01,799 --> 00:30:05,680
from the genie earlier, just how the fuck do people

378
00:30:05,759 --> 00:30:09,920
get out of these messis If a genie can't do it,

379
00:30:10,400 --> 00:30:14,480
then who could. Looking at the altar, he stood silent

380
00:30:14,559 --> 00:30:19,359
for the longest moment, immersed with his thoughts, desperate for

381
00:30:19,400 --> 00:30:25,000
a solution, and yet no one offering him anything. Suddenly,

382
00:30:25,000 --> 00:30:29,119
his eyes opened wide, the revelation where it had always been,

383
00:30:30,039 --> 00:30:34,160
right in front of his nose. Martin shouted to Chris

384
00:30:34,519 --> 00:30:38,759
back soon as he ran out the door, toward his apartment,

385
00:30:39,319 --> 00:30:43,400
toward his future, Returning to the church. Just as quickly

386
00:30:43,440 --> 00:30:47,079
as he could, he managed to blurt out to Chris, Chris,

387
00:30:47,119 --> 00:30:51,039
you're right. The genie was right. I know now what

388
00:30:51,279 --> 00:30:53,880
I have to do to be free. I made my

389
00:30:53,960 --> 00:30:58,319
last wish, but it might not get pretty. Chris looked

390
00:30:58,359 --> 00:31:03,960
at him silently, else dropping to form a wordless oh.

391
00:31:04,079 --> 00:31:08,279
The sound of voices arriving outside dragged their attention away

392
00:31:08,319 --> 00:31:12,519
from each other. Chris moved into a natural position just

393
00:31:12,559 --> 00:31:18,839
outside the door, welcoming people. Martin found himself naturally dropping

394
00:31:18,960 --> 00:31:24,359
just behind him. Various faces passed by as Chris introduced himself,

395
00:31:25,000 --> 00:31:29,440
welcomed them, and shook their hands. It wasn't until Martin's

396
00:31:29,480 --> 00:31:35,079
father appeared that Martin pushed himself forward, indicating his intention

397
00:31:35,240 --> 00:31:39,319
to Chris. As his father reached out to shake Chris's hand,

398
00:31:39,880 --> 00:31:43,519
Martin appeared next to him and interceded, Father, this is

399
00:31:43,559 --> 00:31:46,599
our new pastor, Chris, who also happens to be my

400
00:31:46,720 --> 00:31:52,079
new boyfriend. The hard silence dropped between them. Somewhere in

401
00:31:52,119 --> 00:31:54,519
the distance, Martin was sure he could hear the first

402
00:31:54,559 --> 00:31:59,160
explosion of a charge within his father's mind. It was

403
00:31:59,200 --> 00:32:02,960
a first step night, and thought maybe not the best one,

404
00:32:03,200 --> 00:32:08,799
but it was his and that's what mattered. So I

405
00:32:08,880 --> 00:32:13,400
hope you enjoyed that little fantasy. Next week something completely different.

406
00:32:14,799 --> 00:32:19,359
But until next week, this is devil and wild wishing

407
00:32:19,519 --> 00:33:26,880
used slacious dreams,
