SCULPINHEAD ROCKS by BOBB B. TUCKER Lucas Wickett, awaiting a public thrashing for stealing lobsters CHAPTER ONE - CEDAR ISLAND Ten miles off the coast of New Hampshire lie nine rocky islands that make up the Isles of Shoals. In Colonial times, as many as six-hundred hardy souls, known as "Shoalers," called the islands their home; for the most part, they were lobstermen and cod fishermen. Nowadays, summer cottages on Appledore and Lunging islands and the Flagstaff Hotel on Star Island are boarded up by Labor Day. Even the lighthouse on White Island, once maintained year-around by the Coast Guard is fully automated. By the second week in September, the Isles of Shoals are as forbidding and deserted as the surface of the moon. They will stay that way until the following year when spring will segue into summer and summer people will trickle back for the ten-week-long season. Among them will be perhaps three dozen New Hampshire and Maine lobstermen, who will move into weatherbeaten fishing shanties in Gosport, on Star Island, the islands' lone village. I spent the summer of 1958 on the Isles of Shoals, putting the finishing touches on my ornithology dissertation, which I was writing on the mating habits of great black-backed gulls. I'd been in Gosport only a day or two before I noticed Jason and Lucas Wickett, teenaged cousins there for the lobster season. Jason was a slender, auburn-haired lad about fourteen; Lucas, half-a-foot shorter and a year younger, had a full head of jonquil yellow hair that curled in ringlets about a beautiful pale gold face. The boys arrived for the summer in the care of their grandfather, Odgar Wickett, a septuagenarian lobsterman, whose trawler, the Phoebe B. Beebe, out of Rye Harbor, was a familiar sight in the coves and estuaries between the Hampton River to the south, and the Piscataqua River. Odgar had a mate, known as The One-Eyed Riley who was brown and wrinkled as a walnut from three decades of exposure to the vagaries of New England weather. Old Odgar and his grandsons settled into an unpainted clapboard shanty next to the Gosport General Store; The One-Eyed Riley slept aboard the Phoebe riding at anchor in Gosport Harbor. No sooner had I settled into a Spartan little room at the hotel than I set out with my birdwatching binoculars in search of the elusive black-backed gull. My travels took me across a breakwater to a rarely-visited, uninhabited rock in the sea called Cedar Island because I'd heard it supported a gull rookery. While I was reconnoitering from atop a ledge, I spied the water filled quarry from which granite blocks used in constructing breakwaters had been blasted two centuries earlier. Holding their nuts and jumping from the rim of the quarry into the water, were the two young boys I'd noticed earlier, Jason and Lucas Wickett. I'd learned that they had spent the previous summer on the Islands with their grandpa and The One-Eyed Riley, and that they were regarded by the members of the local lobstermen's association as undisciplined young hellions. At any rate, they had little inclination to accompany their grandpa when the Phoebe B. Beebe put out to sea each morning. I raised my binoculars to study the boys, making no effort to conceal myself or my interest; they were naked and cocky as plucked chickens. Lucas saw me and waved. "Hey, birdman," he called in a warbling soprano, "whyn't'cha come down for a swim? The water's great." I waved back, and called, "I'd love to , guys, but I didn't bring a bathing suit." "That's okay," Jason hollered back, "You can skinny-dip if ya want. we've seen cocks before, so you needn't be modest - unless you got a shorty." I laughed and shook my head. "Nope," I retorted, "I have the biggest pecker in New Hampshire. Are you guys sure you won't mind an old man joining you?" I was twenty-three that summer. "Heck, no," Lucas yelled. "Someday we'll be old, too." In no time I'd clambered down the ledge, pulled off sneakers, pants, Jockeys and T-shirt, and was poised, cock-naked, on the quarry rim. Twenty feet below, the water looked as cool as an Eskimo on a stainless steel commode. The boys were open about checking out my equipment to see if my penis was as large as I'd claimed; their sun-bronzed faces registered disappointment when they realized I'd exaggerated. "Hold onto your balls and jump on in," the younger boy invited. His eyes bugged when I executed a swan dive, breaking the surface with scarcely a ripple. "Damn, where'd you learn to dive like that?" he asked. "I was captain of the swimming team at the University of New Hampshire," I replied. "You gone to college, Birdie? Is that where you learned about birds and shit?" The cousins and I swam for nearly an hour; when we tired, we pulled ourselves onto a ledge and sat, naked in the sun, feet dangling in the water. For a while, I forgot our age difference and that I was finishing a doctoral program, while Jason and Lucas would be lucky to graduate from jr. High school. Lucas stared down ruefully at his shriveled penis. "Shit-a-goddamn," he said, "a kid's peenie-weenie sure shrinks in cold water, don't it?" I gave his silken hair a companionable tousle, put an arm about his shoulder, and hugged his sopping naked body to me. His eyes were limpid, blue, and ringed with curly black lashes. He smiled up at me and snuggled against my side. His soft golden boyskin felt wonderfully warm against me. "Birdie," he asked, "when you was my age, did you uster get hard-ons?" Taken aback, I stammered, "I sure did. And I'll tell you a secret - I still do, two or three times a day." "No shit?" the boy marveled, "I thought only kids get boners. Do you still --- you know - play with yourself?" I could feel my face flush. "I'm no different than you," I parried. "Don't you boys have fathers you can talk to about masturbation?" The boys shook their heads. "Heck, no," Jason said. "My old man's doing life at Maine State Prison, and Lucas's dad drowned when a noreaster flipped over his lobster boat about ten years ago." "Oh," I said. "I'm sorry." "Our grandpa takes care of us during the summer season, but him and his helper are out in the boat all day, so we don't see much of him," Lucas added. "Sometimes we go lobstering with him, but since Grandpa's got a helper, there ain't much for us to do on the boat." "That's okay," Jason said, "we like Star Island lots better than home. Here we fish for flounder from the breakwaters and swim in the quarry. We sell the fish we catch to people who own cottages on Appledore Island. Both our mothers live with boyfriends who hate our guts, so we stay away from home as much as we can. I'll prob'ly drop outta school when I turn fifteen next year. Maybe I'll go to Boston and find a good job." Yeah, I thought, and maybe, if a bullfrog could fly, he wouldn't fall on his ass every time he takes a hop. "Bull shit," Lucas scoffed. "Folks in the city work in banks and office buildings. They're smart people with good educations like Birdie, here." "Then, I'll join the Army, or something," Jason sulked. The younger boy changed the subject. "Hey, Birdie," he piped up, "you didn't tell us if guys your age jerk off like teenaged boys do." After swimming naked for an hour with the cousins, normal inhibitions against discussing my sexual fantasies relaxed. I found a soft mossy spot in the shade of a boulder, lay contentedly on my back, and enjoyed a cool breeze blowing off the ocean over my priapic penis. The boys stretched out, one on either side of me. Lucas pointed gleefully to my erect organ. "look, Jason" he chirruped, "Birdie's got a boner." "I figured if you guys haven't seen one before you wouldn't know what it is," I retorted with a smirk. the blond boy snickered. "Everybody knows what a boner looks like," he said. "Are you fixing to whack off or somethin', Birdie?" I grinned lecherously and said, "It seems a shame to let a perfectly good hard-on go to waste." Jason's sun-bronzed face broke into a Jack-o'-lantern grin. "Birdie's right," he chirruped. "Since we're already nekkid and horny, we might's well do some guy stuff while we're shipwrecked on a desert island." Erections sprouted from our pubes like asparagus stalks wafting in a summer breeze. "We ain't shipwrecked, asshole," Lucas insisted. "If we hop from rock-to-rock across the breakwater, we'll be safe-and-sound on Star Island in no time." "We might's well be shipwrecked," the redhead retorted. "Only a kid would try to cross the breakwater; since there's no place for a boat to tie up, we got the place to ourselves. That means no matter what we do on Cedar Island, no grownup will know about it unless somebody tells. It'll be like the old days when salvagers uster live on the islands and plunder shipwrecks, knowing they were safe from interference by the law." "Don't forget Birdie," Lucas said. "He's a grownup." "Oh, yeah, I almost forgot. Maybe we could make him swear a blood oath not to tell what he sees here; or we could initiate him like when a kid joins the Boy Scouts." The towhead stuck out his lower lip obstinately. "When my Scout Troop initiated me, they depantsed me right in front of the Scout Master," he grumbled. "It was embarrassing." "Maybe if you'd had a bigger cock you wouldn't have been embarrassed," the older cousin suggested. "Fuck you, Jason. I got the biggest dick of any kid in my gym class," Lucas parried. "Anyway, we can't depants Birdie 'cause he's already naked." "I was depantsed once when I was eleven," I offered. "It was part of my initiation into a secret club of pre-teen perverts who specialized in shoplifting cigarettes and Playboy Magazines from the 7-Eleven. My criminal career ended when my dad found a pack of Marlboros in my jacket pocket and took a strap to my butt." "I ain't never had a whuppin'," Lucas divulged. "Did it hurt?" "You're goddamn right it hurt." "Did'jer have to take your pants off?" "I hadda pull 'em down so my weenie showed," I recalled. "To make matters worse, I had a monster erection that wouldn't go away." "That must've been humiliating," Lucas sympathized. "I wouldn't want a grownup to see my boner - not even my dad - especially not my dad." "Birdie's a grownup," Jason pointed out. "He can see your woodie plain as day." "Birdie don't count," Lucas insisted, snuggling up and resting a sun-bronzed cheek on my shoulder. "He does the same stuff you and I do when he knows nobody's around to see him, I bet." I felt his warm hand slide tentatively across my belly, and stop momentarily while his fingers explored my bellybutton. Then he grasped my cockshank as inexpertly as an unwilling boy forced to practice the piccolo. "Hey," I protested, "what's that about, kid?" Lucas smirked like a malicious little pixie and said, "I wanted to test you and find out what you'd do if I grabbed your dick." For emphasis he tweaked my erection hard enough that I yelped. "There - did that hurt?" he asked impudently. "Hell, yes, it hurt," I said. "Knock it off, Lucas - guys are sensitive down there." "Bear farts," said Lucas. "I gave your thing a friendly tug; it wasn't hard enough to hurt." "Oh, no?" I said, eyeing his little donnagher surreptitiously. Lucas Wickett was on the cusp of puberty, although he still spoke in the chirpy tones of boyhood. A wispy patch of peach fuzz, down where penis and testicles attach to abdomen, hinted that he'd soon be having his spermarche - a young boy's first ejaculation of seminal fluid - if he hadn't already done so. Lucas's uncircumsised penis stood at attention, like a manful little Boy Scout standing inspection with a platoon of Marines. I winked and shot him a disarmingly friendly smile, which lulled him into dropping his defenses long enough for me to counterattack and grab a handful of junior-sized testicles. I didn't squeeze hard enough to hurt, of course; on the other hand, I had Lucas by the nuts; he wasn't going anywhere 'til I'd extracted revenge for a tweaked peter. He giggled like a junior highschool girl at a co-ed pajama party. "Let go of my balls, Birdie!" he shrieked in a boyish falsetto. Keeping my grip on the boy's scrotum, I squeezed just enough to get his attention. "Now, you'll pay for giving my cock a noogie," I threatened. "Everything you did to me is about to be returned tenfold." "No, Birdie! No - not that!" the boy giggled. "I'll be good! I swear to Jesus!" "It's too late for promises," I said. "Lie on your back across my lap - boner-side up - and don't struggle. If you wiggle your balls will be squoze 'til you'll be appointed lifetime soprano with the Vienna Boys' Choir." Lucas flipped onto his back and held stock-still while I set about masturbating him as if milking a cow. Judging by the grin on his choirboy face, he was no stranger to pubescent sex play. "Stop it, Birdman!" he squealed excitedly, "I'm gonna cum!" Not to be left out, Jason joined in with a whoop; we had a writhing gaggle of arms, legs, erections, freckly bottoms and spatulate ears. Quicker than Ex-Lax through a schoolboy, my body came in contact with areas of the naked cousins' anatomies that I rarely touched on myself. Something long and pliant, like a giant-sized TOOTSIE-ROLL, intruded between my buttocks and thrust firmly against my anus. I tried to squirm away, but Lucas held firmly to my nuts. Suddenly i realized I was helpless. "I give up, guys, I give," I screamed. As I turned to holler again, my face got in the way as Lucas finished the jerk-off job I'd undertaken on his cock. His seminal vesicles contracted, impelling a stream of ejaculate to spurt from his urethra, splatter the side of my face, run down my cheek, and hang on the point of my chin. At the same time, his cousin's glans, the pink, mushroom-shaped, tip of his penis, pushed through my anus, into my lower colon, and commenced short, violent, in-and-out thrusts that hurt like blazes. I was being fucked and there was nothing I could do about it! Unable to turn onto my side or even squirm, I offered no resistance as the act neared its completion. Then it was over; I sat naked on the grass using my Jockey shorts to wipe cum from my face and the insides of my thighs. Jason and Lucas acted as if nothing unusual had happened; to them, my rape had been lighthearted sex play. I dressed hurriedly, not bothering to tie my sneakers. The Wickett boys wanted me to join them fishing for flounder; i made a halfhearted excuse and dashed across the breakwater to the safety of my hotel room. TO BE CONTINUED
