On April 20th 2013, my 30th birthday, with all my very good friends surrounding me…Pooh proposed to me. I thought today, our 12th year anniversary, was the perfect time to post the video from that night.

It was such an amazing night! For my 30th birthday I just wanted to throw a big party and invite all of my friends. I rented out a venue, provided open bar (of course), and even Pooh put together a super awesome incredible mega mix for the evening! We all had so much fun and I was so happy that so many of my closest friends were able to be there. The proposal was the icing on the cake. It wasn’t elaborate and over the top; it was simple. It was perfect.

Happy 12 year anniversary Pooh! I love you! :)

Pooh and I decided to spend our anniversary in Vegas this year. We figured we could drive up right after work on Saturday, party with our friends from Vegas that night, and spend some quality couple time on Sunday and Monday.

Saturday night we went with our buddy Gian and some friends to Piranha for drinks and dancing, followed by Artisan for some after hours drinks and dancing. It was craaazy fun but omg I was so exhausted by the end of the night…or morning…I have no idea when we left.

We stayed at the Vdara Hotel & Spa located near the Aria and Cosmopolitan. We LOVED our suite! It was spacious, stylish, and I loved that the windows were large and spanned across the the entire room. It had a full kitchen, remote controlled window shades, a large spa shower, and a lovely tub for 2.

After having some fun in our room, we thought we’d splash around a bit in the pool. The only thing we didn’t like was that the hotel was supposed to have a bar at the pool, but for some reason it was closed. Since we wanted to enjoy cocktails by the pool, we had to get them from the bar in the main lobby and carry them back to the pool area. It was just awkward because we had to take the elevator and go to the fancy lobby in our wet swim shorts. Aside from that, it was very relaxing.

Pooh and I explored the other casinos and gambled a bit (no big wins unfortunately). We were going to have a nice anniversary dinner at some fancy restaurant, but we figured we might as well try a bit of indulgence and go all out at a buffet. We went to the Bacchanal Buffet at Caesars Palace. We were very lucky to arrive for dinner early because the line was insane as we were leaving. We had a great time stuffing our faces…so romantic. :)

After dinner we thought we’d spend our last night in Vegas having fun out-n-about just the two of us. We went out for drinks at different bars in different casinos and went to Revolution in Mirage to get our dance on. I love that we can have so much fun even if it’s just the two of us. We’re not only boyfriends, we’re best friends. We had an amazing time and ended the night stuffing our faces with junk food in our hotel room while watching Family Guy.

Waking up on our last day in Vegas was a little surreal; as though I were still dreaming. The sunlight shone softly through the shades. The sheets were like clouds against my skin. I could feel Pooh’s warmth as he held me close and whispered “Good morning…happy anniversary…”. I just wanted to stay in bed and cuddle with Pooh forever. I’m very happy that we decided to get away for our anniversary. I still can’t believe it’s been 11 years. Time definitely flies when you’re having fun.

Unfortunately, our time at the Vdara in Vegas had ended and it was time to check out. We were sad for our anniversary weekend to come to an end but we had a 5 hour drive back to San Diego to enjoy…*sad face*.

JK! We always have fun on our road trips…it’s great quality time and we have so much fun singing along to our favorite songs at the top of our lungs.

My heart was racing. Soft grunts and gentle moans were muffled as my lips pressed against his. Our lips locked and I could feel his tongue grace mine so very gently. It’s warmth and touch sent sweet tickles down my spine. The sound of our kisses and heavy breathing fueled the passion. I had jumped from the passenger seat on top of him, straddling his legs. He held me close and rubbed his hands up and down my sides and along my back. Our kisses were strong hard and passionate as I rubbed my body against his. We were gasping for air but didn’t care. I slowly grinded my crotch against his. I could feel his “hardness” throbbing through his shorts as it brushed against mine. I still remember the feeling of his soft silky basketball shorts against my jeans while I rode him. Our kisses grew harder and more passionate as we started grinding harder and faster. His hands caressed all over my body as mine too explored his. I was in ecstasy when his hands went up under my shirt and his cold hands tickled my skin. I felt my way down to his shorts and gripped his cock. I could feel it hard and long through his shorts. I was surprised and impressed…I wouldn’t say I’m a “size queen” but I’d like to say I enjoy myself a nice cock. (The asian stereotype is not always true *winks*).

I didn’t want him to feel uncomfortable so I asked if he was “ok…with this…”. He smiled and said yes. I massaged it a bit outside of his shorts and then went for it. I put my hands in from under his shirt and rubbed his abs up to his chest…then went back down slowly. I tugged on the drawstring on his shorts and slipped my hands inside. I felt his warmth and I felt his hardness. His moans slipped through our lips while I kissed him and gently stroked it. I started going faster and faster…our moans grew louder…and we were breathing harder. I could feel his hands slip from my back down to my zipper. Then suddenly a bright light started shining down on our car. We could hear a helicopter in the sky. We were startled and looked around. To our relief the light moved from our car down to a car several spaces away from us. That car suddenly peeled out of the parking spot and the helicopter started following them. We could see the car zoom way down the street with the spot light locked right on it. We looked at each other for a couple seconds in silence…out of breath…and panting. He broke the silence. “Should we move?” he said.
“Yes!” I replied without hesitation.
He pulled out of the parking lot and we headed to a different spot.

This was the very first time Pooh and I ever got intimate. It was the first time I ever touched his lips. Did we “do it” that night? Unfortunately, no…but I’m glad we didn’t. It was fun but thoughts were swirling in my head. Pooh and Tiggah still didn’t exist yet. We were not official…we actually weren’t dating. Before this, Pooh and I would just sit in his car and talk about things. We got close. I felt like I could tell him things about my childhood and my family that were personal. Things that I couldn’t tell anyone else. I was happy that he was able to share these intimate things with me as well. We danced together so he was always there to take us to practice and home. We would usually take his car because his was better. =P We’d usually hang out after practice and just talk.

One night we parked in a lot next to a baseball field. I used to live in the Navy housing right next to it. When I was a kid, me and my friends would hang out at the park next to the baseball field. I was telling Pooh about some memories when I was a kid and playing at the park. It was nice. We were in his car and both had our seats reclined. I thought it’d be nice to open his moon roof so we can see the stars so I pulled it open and laid down. I looked up and all I could see was the reflection of our crotches. Knowing his view was the same as mine, I was embarrassed and quickly shut the slider to his moon roof. It was a bit awkward…but we laughed. We looked at each other for a bit…some reason we didn’t say anything. Then he kissed me. It took me a second to realize what had just happened. I didn’t know what to do…but I know I liked it…and I wanted it to happen. Was this my chance? Did the door swing right open for me to run in? If I don’t do anything…would this happen again? I smiled…then went in for another kiss. He took his hand and held my cheek while my lips gently pressed against his. I was in heaven. My heart was racing…and well, this brings us back to the beginning of my post.

I was a pretty active student in High School. I was in several extra curricular activities, clubs, and organizations. Much like how I am now, I liked to keep busy. One of my favorite activities was being a member in our school’s “advanced” choir. I didn’t actually meet Pooh until the last semester in 12th grade. He had joined choir when he moved to San Diego from Japan. It’s unfortunate that he had to move to another school in the middle of his senior year. His dad was in the navy so he had to move around a lot. My dad was also in the navy so I had to move around a lot too. He looked very “thug” and unapproachable so I didn’t really make any attempts to get to know him. Plus, I was too preoccupied with relationship problems, partying every night, and ditching classes during the day.

Strangely, we went to prom in the same group of people and sat at the same table, but we didn’t even know each other at the time. It wasn’t until we had a choir performance at some random church that we ended up meeting each other. My mom was supposed to pick me up but ended up calling me to let me know that she couldn’t make it. I had to ask my friend Jazmine if she could give me a ride. She said she’d have to ask her friend since he was giving her a ride and they weren’t going home after the performance. She said she was taking her friend to his first rave. I happened to be a big raver head at the time so I was all for it! She ran over to this guy’s car and asked him if I could tag along. As she ran to the passenger side she yelled, “he said it’s OK, get in!” So I jumped in the back seat and took my backpack off. The guy driving turned to me and introduced himself. It was the bald thuggish guy that I never talked to before. Despite his tough exterior, he had a shy timid smile. He was adorable…er and kinda hot. I had (still have) a thing for bald guys. I really liked hanging out with him that night. Despite the rave being incredibly wack, we had a lot of fun! He was really cool, nice, and funny. I loved his personality and he was so easy to talk to.

Since he was the new kid in town I introduced him to all of my friends. We ended up hanging out a lot. I didn’t have a crush on him at the time because….well…he was straight. I knew my boundaries and knew not to fall for guys I’d never have a chance with. I did end up telling him that I was gay after having known him for like 2 or 3 days. I was only out to a couple of people. Just a cousin, who happened to be bi, and the guys that I happened to “fool around” with. After I told him that I was gay I ended up having the confidence to tell all my close friends. My best friend actually was pretty upset that I came out to this guy that I’ve only known a couple days before him.

Pooh and I were great friends. Even after we graduated from High School we still hung out. He actually was there for me through a couple bad breakups. When I first met him, I had just recently ended probably the longest most serious gay relationship I had before Pooh. He was always there to be a good friend and support me through those hard times. He took me out to get my mind off things. We’d just drive around and when he’d ask me where I’d like to go or what to do, I’d say “I dunno, lets have fun getting lost.” Of all the random things Pooh and I do nowadays, what I enjoy the most is just driving around with him – not having any place to go or knowing where we’re going. Just playing some music and driving.

There were a couple moments when I’d look at him and daydream a bit, but I’d snap myself out of it. We all have been there – the straight friend or classmate that you crush on and daydream about but know it’ll never happen. There were just so many qualities about him that made me think that he was an amazing person. I was actually there for him and his own relationships. I remember one day he and I were driving around and he said that he was going to meet some girl he met online. I was like, “are you sure it’s a girl?” He laughed and said “of course!” Naturally, he found himself a girlfriend. I saw how sweet he was and how good he treated her. He was definitely a guy you’d want to bring to your parents. I was always very happy for him because he was such a sweet guy and deserved someone to make him happy. Sometimes I wished it was me.

So this year flew by pretty quickly. For those of you that are new to my blog…Pooh and I have been together for 7 years now and will be celebrating our 8 year anniversary on HALLOWEEN (October 31st) – which happens to be my favorite holiday! We still aren’t sure what exactly we’ll be doing to celebrate but I’m very excited. We were thinking of going to West Hollywood to experience Halloween for the first time in We-Ho and actually dress up this year. Surprisingly, it’s been my favorite holiday forever and I’ve never dressed up for it (well, aside from when I was a little boy.) Hmm, costume ideas anyone? Please post a comment with costume ideas and feel free to share what you’ll be dressing up as.

Oh, and you’ll be happy to know that I’ve been working on the 2nd part of “Our Story” which I hope to release by the 31st. If you haven’t had the chance to read Part 1 of “Our Story”, you can read it HERE.
