Heavy Metal Cowboy Blues

By J.D. Walker

Lester “Les” McCoy is a retired cowboy who now lives in the city, working days at the Ranch and Feed. He loves his country music. Not so his tenant, Damien Ridley, who lives downstairs in his duplex and works evenings at the gym.

”Metal boy,” as Les likes to call him, prefers to listen to all things rock and metal at decibels that make his ears bleed. Damien is attracted to Les, which he makes abundantly clear with those translucent gray eyes and his hot, kissable mouth. Problem is, although Les is in lust with Damien, he's an old prairie bachelor and sees his metal boy as too young for a roll in the hay. He'd rather be put out to pasture.

Enter a friend who's gay-bashed and a co-worker who kicks his head out of his ass, and Les reconsiders whether a heavy metal dude can help an old cowboy with the blues.

Heavy Metal Cowboy Blues

by J.D. Walker

I awoke out of a deep sleep to ear-splitting sound.

"Oh, God. Make it stop!" I groaned and squeezed the sides of my head with both hands.

I shared a two-story duplex with Damien Ridley, my tenant. He loved his metal and hard rock at a decibel level that made my ears bleed.

Pushing aside my blanket, I got out of bed and stomped outside and down the stairs to bang on his door.

Hey! I yelled.

Of course, he didn’t hear me. I turned the doorknob and found it unlocked. I opened the door and stepped
