MY FIRST YEAR IN PRISON
Chapter 10: Big Pepe’s pride (Part 1)
To celebrate my first month in prison, I had a great surprise: pizza for dinner!
It was cold and tasted rough, but eh, it was better than the weird mashed potatoes we almost had at every meal. We were even authorized to drink some fresh coke with it. A real treat!
Of course, pizza night had nothing to do with me being locked up for a whole month, it was just a happy coincidence, but you have to learn to appreciate the small victories.
That day, Griffin had visited me for the third time since I got locked up and it had left a bittersweet impression on me. He was smart to come on his own so Austin would not steal his thunder this time. He looked handsome in a navy-blue shirt and I did enjoy his company. Still, it had not gone great.
Besides us, Ray was fighting with his 18 years old son, scolding him with the help of his wife, Sabrina. Apparently, the young Trevor had been kicked from his highschool once again and Ray was losing it.
When Griffin asked me: “How do you manage to live with these people?” I felt incredibly hurt. How could he not see that I was one of them? Ray had actually become quite a good friend of mine, well, a prison friend at least.
The lack of intimacy was also starting to hit us hard. Although we reassured each other, saying that a full month had already gone by, both of us were fully aware that the end of the tunnel was still far away, nine months at least and only if I managed to obtain an early release. So long before I could kiss him again!
The rest of the day, all I could think about was my relationship with Griffin and I began to fear that I might actually lose him over this. The worst part was that I could not talk about this to anyone. I would have loved to confide myself in Xander, he was in a somewhat happy relationship with Mindy despite being locked up. However, by pretending that I was straight when I came in, I had made my bed and now, I had to lay in it.
Anyway, I ate my semi-cold pizza with the whole gang and tried to have a good time. My cellmates Xander, Ralph, and Fernando, our training buddy Pope, Daddy Ray and -the annoying- Glenn sang me a remixed and dirtier version of Happy Birthday, to celebrate my “monthversery” in prison.
The lyrics included some phrases about me being a rocky no more, or learning how to punch a meth head in the face. Kurtis joined in on the song. They all joked about my fight with Frenchy and at this point, I could laugh about it too.
Glenn offered me a blowjob to top the celebration which I gently declined. Those kinds of comments were just passing above my head now.
Things were not easy though.
In the following days, the heatwave was still going strong and as the weeks went by, it became more and more difficult to cope with it.
Southern California was undergoing a drought and the prison had been asked to made considerable efforts to preserve water and energy. As a consequence, we were restricted on the use of the laundry machines, meaning I would work less but also that all of us would live in sweaty clothes 24/7, or, and this was the preferred option for most inmates, no clothe at all.
It had been 16 days since the heatwave had started and pretty much everyone was wandering around in only their boxer briefs. Fernando, of course, was usually naked.
The tension was building up between the exhausted inmates, especially when it became clear that some were benefiting from certain perks. Romano, for instance, could disappear for several hours a day with his bitch boy Kim to enjoy air conditioning somewhere else in the facilities. Falcon would come get them and they would only come back at the end of the day, when the air was a bit more breathable.
At one point, a group of Latino guys confronted Romano about this and it turned out to be the biggest fight I had witnessed thus far. A Latino was attacked with a razor by one of Romano’s goons, another Italian guy named Bianchi, and had to be sent to an hospital. No one should mess with Romano and he was determined to make this point clear.
During one of the fights in the cafeteria, the alarm went on and Falcon held his gun out. I was terrified, lying down against the floor. Fortunately, the group of Latino guys and their leader, a tall muscular guy nicknamed Big Pepe – the guy was massive, a Latin version of Ralph if you will -, ended up backing off.
Once Romano had considered that the Latinos had been sufficiently punished, things went back pretty much to normal. Or so I thought.
Not that “normal” was great either but it was better than seeing actual blood fights in the morning showers. Some of those guys had nothing to lose and everyone was on edge.
A bunch of inmates were sent into solitary confinement after those incidents, - not Romano though, still very protected by the administration - but solitary did not last much, the temperature was so hot down there that their lives were actually in danger.
Romano and his crew were not the only ones to be granted some advantages though. Ralph had gotten us a small fan for our cell. How? I had no idea! Just like the phone he was somehow authorized to use, some things remained a mystery. But we were all smart enough to keep quiet about it and we enjoyed the very welcomed breeze only at night.
Once or twice, I considered going to the warden office and servicing his dick just to enjoy the air conditioning. But I had not fallen that low, not just yet.
In an attempt to mend my relationship with Griffin and to stir myself in the right direction, I also tried to distance myself from Kurtis. I mean that I tried to check his ass and bulge less often but to be honest, this was not going very well. The hunk was more and more comfortable around me and that was not helping me fight my attraction for him!
Once, he threw away his tank top in a machine as soon as he came in the laundry room where I was already folding some t-shirts. He did not stop there; he also removed his pants and socks in a single move to reveal his underwear.
I tried not to look. I swear that I tried. But how could I not?
He was just wearing a pair of tight white panties, not even boxer briefs, half of his ass was coming out of the fabric, the bulge on the front was simply indecent and his inner thighs and pubic hair were calling for my attention! Not to mention a clear, big, juicy visible penis line. Was he about to spend this afternoon like this?
Spoiler alert: He actually was!
Needless to say that I spent the whole four hours hard as a rock, trying but not managing to hide my state of arousal to Kurtis. I could tell that he noticed but he did not make any comment. Better than that, he seemed to play with me, bending over to pick up some of the clothes off the floor, spreading his legs so I could get a glimpse at his balls, massaging his neck with his right hand to expose his armpit.
Was it all in my head? Was he really doing that on purpose? Fuck, there was no way to tell with that guy. Well, unless I went for it! I would know! I could grab his ass. Maybe he would punch me but maybe he would grab mine in return. We could kiss, and touch, and fuck each other! Damn sure, I would let him fuck me.
I was daydreaming again. I needed to focus my attention back on the chore at hand. I trained myself to think about Griffin, about how much he would get hurt. I also told myself that this was simply ridiculous, Kurtis was probably straight as an arrow, and even if he weren’t, it’s not like we could actually date in prison!
Admittedly, when it comes to hot guys, I’m not the smartest man around but still, even I knew that I had to get a grip this time. I could not be that stupid.
In the end, I pretended not to be horny as hell and Kurtis pretended not to notice the effect that he obviously had on me. It was better this way.
I was done with my stack of clothes before him and I had some coins to use on the prison phone booth so I left Kurtis there.
“See you later.” I said awkwardly after almost 2 hours of silence.
He looked at me and from where he stood behind the table, he looked like he was entirely naked. Fuck me, that man was a God.
“See you later, bro.” He said, folding another pair of pants.
I smiled. At least, we were good with each other.
I wondered what would have happened if I had made a move that day. My ass was itching at this point, I needed to get a good fuck! I was still lost in my (dirty) thoughts when I picked up the phone. Automatically, I had called Austin. We had not chatted in a while, and he never failed to make me feel better about my life in prison. I also wanted to plan his next visit.
Weirdly, Austin talked a lot about Griffin, they had spent an afternoon together. They had been to the swimming pool and tons of image of the both of them in speedos were now running through my head. As if I was not horny enough! What did I miss being stuck in there?!
Austin did insist on how hard it was for Griffin to wait for me. He was getting me a bit worried.
“You think he’s going to cheat on me?” I asked genuinely.
“No…”
“That’s a weird no, Austin.”
“Just put yourself in his shoes, I know how easy it is for you gay guys to find hook ups.”
“I am in his shoes Austin! And I’m not cheating.”
“Not really, there is no Grindr in Prison. At least, not that I know of.” He marked a pause; I was getting a bit flustered. “Wait, Ty? Do guys really fuck each other in jail?”
“No…” I replied with not much conviction.
“That’s a weird no, Ty.”
I moved to another subject. I asked about his wife, Cassie, but he was way less talkative about that. I felt that something was not right but I did not mention it. We were both keeping secrets from each other as it seemed.
Finally, he told me something quite unexpected.
“Fuck. I almost forgot Ty! I have a gift for you.”
“What do you mean? I hope you did not send anything, I told you it does not work.”
We were forbidden to receive anything except for letters from the outside, every item we might use in prison had to be bought in a sort of storage room / concierge space. Receiving packages was not a thing in there.
“I may be a jock but I’m not a dummy, Ty. I’m actually pretty damn smart! I’ve found a way to get around their stupid rules.”
“What did you do, Austin?” I asked, a little concerned at this point.
“I donated a book to the Prison’ library. A bunch of them actually. The newest and some old editions of Garuto!”
“What? How?”
I vaguely knew that the prison had a library, but Xander had explained to me early on, that the place was crap and also part of Romano’s “territory”. Just like the gym space next to the communal showers of district 2 were “our” zone, the library was Romano’s headquarters.
“Simple. Correctional facilities are always happy to receive donations. They do check what you donate but like, unless there are drugs or weapons in them, they are not going to refuse some manga. It had nothing to do with you, it was not a gift to an inmate, so that was all fine. I finally got the confirmation that my donation had been taken into account. It took almost 4 weeks, but the books should be there!”
I was speechless. Maybe it was not much for him, but for me, it meant the world. The efforts he had put into this. The consideration that showed.
“You’re there?” He asked.
I had tears in my eyes.
“Yeah… Thanks Austin… It’s… It actually means a lot.”
“You always have to make such a thing about everything, do you? It’s just a gift my friend.”
“I know. I appreciate it. I just hope the other inmates did not tear the books apart already.”
“They better not! Well, if necessary, you can always go all gansta on them.” He joked.
“Sure.” I said, but it was not much of a joke.
We discussed a few more minutes and as soon as I hung up the phone, I ran to the library. I felt a bit stupid not to have been there in six weeks, but prison was not a place I really enjoyed exploring. I would rather stay safe in my cell or at the gym with the few people I trusted.
I had passed by the library dozens of times of course so I knew exactly where it was.
I entered, feeling immediately out of place. The library was far from welcoming. No comfortable couches or armchairs in there, no students working in silent, just a bunch of tables, less than a dozen shelfs filled with used books, mainly law stuff, but most of it not up to date, a few novels, and… yes, cartoons and manga!
Unsurprisingly, some of the Romano’s crew were there, leaning against the largest table at the centre of the room. I recognized Kim who was silently reading a novel in one of the remaining chairs (most of them were broken). The young guy looked seriously depressed every time I had the chance to look at him, but maybe, we all were.
I walked awkwardly among the few inmates, trying to remain invisible. Falcon was there too, semi-sleeping on a desk. That bald prick was everywhere! I heard some noises, some shouting nearby, but in the library, nothing was going on.
I checked in the manga session. I found them in a matter of seconds. Brand new, the Garuto books were waiting for me. I wanted to hold them against me. I felt like Austin was with me. I was not sure how the system worked, whether I could get the book out of the library and bring them back later like we would in real life.
I did not have time to figure it out though. Someone came up to me. An Italian guy, I had seen him hanging with Romano a lot, but he was much older, nearing 60. Bianchi. The “razor” guy.
"Yo.” He spoke. “They are waiting for you in the storage room downstairs.”
“What?” I mumbled, really confused.
“Are you dumb or are you deaf?” Bianchi said, now holding my shoulders. I felt my heart racing.
I looked around me. Falcon took a look but closed his eyes back again to continue with his nap and Kim just ignored me.
“Neither… I… I really don’t follow.”
“What did you not understand in the phrase, boy: they are waiting for you in the storage room downstairs!”
“Man, I think you got the wrong guy, I…”
What the fuck was happening? He pulled my arm. I was so stunned that I could not react. Maybe I should have screamed. Who would help? Falcon? What a joke!
“There.” He pointed at some stairs semi hidden in the back of the library.
