Summary: What happens when two best friends get snowed in during the offseason
Disclaimer: The relationship in real life between these two players is very much heterosexual and of the best friend kind. Anything I write about them in slash form is purely fictional
Garret Atkins flew to Denver to visit his best friend and confidante, Clint Barmes. Clint picked him up at Denver International Airport, they went to dinner, and ventured on to Clint's new home in Highlands Ranch. Once they got there, the boys loaded up Garret's luggage and took it inside the house.
Clint showed Garret around and then fed his dog, a black lab named Elmo some food. Clint said, "Hey G, make yourself completely at home. Mi casa es su casa always". Garret set his stuff down on the bed in the guest room and said "Thanks bro. I'm just gonna unpack a little bit and I'll be right out". Clint let Elmo out in the back yard, and as he did, took notice of the dark and gloomy-looking Colorado evening sky.
Just then, it began to spit small snowflakes and one caught Clint on his face. He looked out under his porch at the new hot tub he'd had installed right after the season ended and thought to himself, 'I have to show Garret this while he's here. He'd enjoy this'.
Garret looked out the window and saw Clint go out in the yard with Elmo. He stopped unpacking and decided to join them. There was already a foot of snow in the yard as it was and the weatherman had predicted more. Garret felt a snowflake touch his cheekbone and smiled. "Wow, my first time ever being in Colorado before the holidays. Usually I am back home this time of year", he commented and Clint responded with, "Me too, until now. I love my new home and also love Colorado. It was hard for me to leave my family and friends in Vincennes, but I thought it's time I make a life for myself here. Todd convinced me". He was referring to Todd Helton, his and Garret's teammate, who, in the last few seasons, had settled down with his family just north of Denver by 25 minutes.
Elmo was running in the yard, barking and having a great time with his master and Garret. Clint picked up a snowball and winged it at Garret., getting him right in the back of the leg. "This means war, Barmes!", Garret exclaimed, chasing him with a snowball. He tripped Clint and then tackled him, laughing loudly. Clint kept trying to knock Garret off him any way he could, but was rendered useless. Elmo began licking Clint's face, making both he and Garret laugh even more and harder.
Garret then shoved the medium-sized snowball down Clint's shirt and laughed as Clint was trying desperately to get it out. "I'll get you for this, G!", Clint said as he finally knocked the snowball out. Garret laughed and said, Yeah right".
This time, Clint chased Garret around the yard. Garret tripped over Elmo and went flying face-first into the snow, which sent Clint into even more fits of laughter. Garret's face grew really cold and as he lifted his head up, Clint saw blood coming out of Garret's nose.
"Oh my God!", Clint said as he saw Garret slowly getting up. Garret put his hand to his face and soon saw the blood. Clint felt so bad, apologized to Garret, and then reached down to find what Garret hit. It was one of Elmo's hard chew bones Clint had bought for the dog not long ago. "Let's get you into the house right away and get you cleaned up", Clint said and took Garret and Elmo inside.
Garret walked into Clint's bedroom covering his nose with his hands. Clint pulled him into the bathroom and instructed him to remove his wet clothes. Garret let go of his nose and more blood gushed as he stood over Clint's bathroom sink. Clint helped Garret out of the wet clothes, then took them to be washed in the machine. Garret sat in his boxers with his head leaned back, holding the top of his nose to stop the blood.
Clint apologized even more when he came back into the room. Garret said, "It's all good Clint. I'll be fine. You and Elmo didn't do anything wrong. I just hit the ground hard is all". "What you hit was one of Elmo's chew bones. I should know better than to leave those around the yard like that", Clint responded.
Garret's nose finally stopped bleeding and soon he and Clint were warming up with the fireplace going. Clint said, "I wanted to show you my hot tub while we were out there". Garret smiled. "You got a hot tub? Awesome! Can we try it out?" "Yeah, let's go!", Clint answered. Garret thought a moment and said, "I didn't bring any trunks". Clint smiled and said, "Wear your boxers. It's just us here". Garret agreed and Clint went to get towels.
The boys went outside and Clint turned on a small radio near the tub. Clint told Garret to get in first....Garret did, and sat down, smiling. "You like?", his buddy asked. "Hell yeah! This is great!", Garret answered as Clint made his way in.
Garret had never seen Clint in a pair of trunks before and couldn't help but notice how good he looked in them. He'd seen Clint naked before in the locker room and vice-versa and even then he couldn't help himself. He checked out Clint's body every chance he could, trying his best not to let Clint notice him doing it. Clint DID notice, however, and it made him chuckle a little bit.
One night after a game, Clint was at home in bed at the apartment he and Garret shared during the season, and he realized that he cared a lot about his best friend...in more ways than one, but didn't want to freak Garret out by telling him. Garret, on the other hand, felt the same way about Clint and couldn't bring himself to say anything either, but it was eating him up inside at the same time. This trip, he would have to tell Clint his true feelings, he had decided on the plane ride.
The guys sat in the tub for a while, just talking and enjoying the beautiful, snowy December night. Garret couldn't contain himself any longer and decided it was time he say something.
"Clint", he began, "We've been best friends for the past 5 years, and there's something I think you should know". Clint looked at Garret and said, "Okay, go on". Garret proceeded to tell Clint that he's fallen in love with him and wants to be with him. Afterwards, it was quiet for a moment, and then Clint said, "I love you too Garret. I've been afraid to tell you though, so I kept it hidden. This is one big reason why I wanted you to come out here for a visit. I needed to tell you this away from our families, friends, and the team. I want you to live with me too. I can't stand it here alone".
Garret's brown eyes filled with tears of joy and he met Clint's tearful gaze. "I will. I'll move here after the holidays. I can't stand it back home, away from you. I even tried getting back with Gina, but it didn't work and I knew that she wasn't who I wanted. It was you".
Their lips met in an innocent, wonderful kiss, and their arms went around each other. They held each other for a moment, then Clint gave Garret another kiss. Their passion for each other soon exploded into deep kisses and their hands roaming on each other. They'd never experienced something so amazing and taboo with each other, so their newfound love excited them both.
Clint said, "Come on Garret. Let's go inside and continue this". They got out, dried off, and ventured inside. Clint got the fire going again and then slid off his trunks, where Garret saw Clint's manhood erect and inviting. He then removed his trunks and saw Clint's face light up in a large smile. He then saw Clint's eyes wander downward. That sent a shiver of excitement through Garret's body.
Clint and Garret laid down on the warm, plush carpet near the fireplace. Their bodies together, their lips together, and their hands wandering as they began to passionately make out. Clint held Garret's manhood in his hand and lightly stroked it, Garret moaning in the process. Clint then rubbed his own manhood against Garret's and both of them moaned loudly.
Soon, Garret was sucking Clint's cock and licking the shaft. Clint hadn't felt that sensation since he and his girlfriend had decided to end things months ago. He was thoroughly enjoying his lover's mouth on his cock.
When it was Clint's turn to pleasure Garret, Clint took Garret's cock as far into his mouth as he could go, making Garret moan immensely. Clint enjoyed pleasuring his man and was looking forward to more times like that with him.
They kissed each other again and Garret told Clint to do him. He'd been longing for Clint to be inside him and tonight was the night his wish would come true. Clint massaged Garret's ass and made him relax so entering wouldn't hurt as much. Clint entered Garret and together they both moaned painfully until the feeling was more enjoyable.
Outside, the snow began to fall even more and in thicker amounts. Elmo was sound asleep in Clint's bedroom. The guys were still on the living room carpet making love. This time, Garret was inside of Clint, doing to and with him the things he'd been fantasizing about for so long.
After their orgasms, the guys went into Clint's room, showered, and went to bed in each other's arms.
The next morning, Clint stood in the window naked, watching the snow come down. Garret woke up, rubbed his sleepy eyes, and said good morning to his love. Clint greeted him with a very passionate kiss and said good morning to him in return.
They left the curtain window wide open and proceeded to make love while a blizzard went on outside.
