As try as he might, little Ben couldn't understand many of the words being spoken to him by the large man.
He looked up and blinked his wide eyes. He knew that he needed the man to help him do something.
"Oh yeah, I've always wondered what you would have been like when you were some raw kid just coming out of the closet," Josh said with a self-satisfied smirk.
He pressed some keys on the computer. At that same time little Ben felt a strange tingle spread through him. The sensation frightened him at first, and he started to bawl.
"Don't cry," Josh soothed. "You'll like this."
Ben began to grow rapidly. In swift fashion he grew up through toddlerhood, on across the threshold of childhood and puberty, gradually beginning to take on his recognizably adult appearance.
He doesn't have the same adult definition, and he's a little too scrawny. The old Ben would never have given this new Ben a second glance.
But Josh likes what he sees as he scans Ben's naked 18-year-old body.
While Ben's mind is still foggy, Josh reaches out and runs a large hand over Ben's sharp shoulder blades.
"How do you feel?" Josh asks. He leans closer, wrapping his arms around his ex-lover's now smaller frame.
He rubs Ben's bare torso.
Ben feels himself spring erect.
Josh notices and laughs. "I love the new you."
