Giving Josh a Shower

One summer when I was home from college my aunt and uncle and their kids came for a few days. My 14-year-old nephew "Josh" had broken his leg, poor guy, and was wearing a heavy cast. He clunked back and forth on crutches and looked miserable. A bunch of us were sitting around not doing much of anything when Josh turned to his mother and said "Ma, I want to take a shower."

They looked around for Josh's dad to help him in the bathroom, but he and my father had gone off somewhere. His mother announced that he'd just have to wait until the men got home.

Without even consulting me, Josh called my name and told his mother that I could help him. She asked me if I minded, and of course I told her it was fine.

Josh sat down on the toilet lid with his bum leg sticking out. He was wearing a pair of old bluejeans with the leg seam cut open all the way from bottom to crotch. It was held closed with safety pins which had to be unfastened one at a time - an awkward feeling as I got close to his crotch. Finally the jeans were off. Josh had already removed his shirt and his one shoe and sock. All that remained were a pair of standard white briefs which the two of us worked together to slide down the length of the cast - awkward moment number two.

As the briefs descended they revealed a patch of light brown pubes followed by a dick that was about half-way through its pubertal growth spurt. And then a loose dangle of ribbed scrotum. I was tempted to say "Whoa! Nice junk, Josh." But of course I remained as objective as possible and never let my eyes linger where they shouldn't.

While his package came into view Josh flashed his eyes at me momentarily. I could never prove it, but I think he was silently telling me something like this: "Remember when I was a little boy tagging around after you? Well now I'm way past that. Just look at what I've got here!"

I could be wrong, but I think he truly wanted me to appreciate what I was seeing.

The shower was the third awkward moment. He was supposed to keep the cast outside of the tub, so I had to help support him while he soaped up and rinsed off. When it was over I helped him dry off.

Then came the most awkward moment of all, getting a fresh pair of undies up the cast, over the other leg, onto his butt and around his mid-section. When that was done he paused to adjust his junk with both hands before we wrestled the jeans onto his legs.

Neither one of us put a toe out of line, nor would I have dared to even think of such a thing. But I still believe Josh was showing off for me.
