Date: Sat, 19 Mar 2005 15:08:11 -0500 From: rye encoke Subject: Mark and Rye: Homecoming 2 Hi again. Well here it is finally. The next installment of the Mark and Rye series. The usual disclaimers apply here. I don't know Westlife or any other celebrity and certainly don't know the sexual orientation or their feelings regarding being gay. This is all made up in my wicked little mind. This continues where Mark and Rye left off and will be written in the same style, my style, which is lots of sappy and romantic fluff that hopefully will have you crying along with me. The work is mine and unless you have my permission you can't post it anywhere else. This is a story about gay relationships and if you shouldn't be here due to local laws or your age or whatever then leave now, otherwise continue on and enjoy. This chapter will include Bryan teaching Spooky about masturbation. I wanted to give you the reasoning behind this. First, even though Spooky is young he is quite mature in some ways emotionally. This is mainly due to his gifts which do not allow him to screen out some stuff. Originally I had gone between having Spooky be a bit older but then I couldn't have used the cute way of talking and I decided that since I myself knew at age 5, one year younger than Spooky, that my peepee got hard at night and it felt really good to rub it against my teddy, that I would let this next little bit happen to Spooky at age 6. That was the second reason. Third reason was that well Spooky being Spooky, and boys being boys, he was and has been getting little boners. Open honest talk about it is best I thought and just following the natural progression someone was gonna have to talk to him about masturbation. And since this is, in Jill's words, Bryan's dry run at being a dad...well Bryan got the honors. Please note when you read the next chapter that it is not at all sexual for Bryan, but rather a loving gesture in the caring and nurturing of Spooky. - Talking with Kian - A not yet fully awake Shane and Nicky stumbled out of their bedroom and literally walked into Kian. "Oof, sorry guys," Kian said then took them both into his arms and hugged them and kissed their lips. Shane and Nicky smiled and held Kian lovingly. "Feeling cuddly today huh sweets," Shane said. "Yeah. I am just so happy all of a sudden. Tour is over and we are heading back to our home. God our home. Home. I can't say it enough. To be living with my friends and my love. Sharing our love," Kian said with a faraway look in his eye. "Sometime this week we would like you to join us for some lovin. Whatever you are willing to share with us. Would that be okay?" Nicky asked. Kian smiled happily and kissed Nicky then on an impulse deepened the kiss and moved his hand down to gently caress Nicky's now hardening cock. "Mmmmm," Nicky said as Kian pulled back. Shane smiled and then collected a kiss from Kian as well. "Hey guys come on I have popcorn, let's go back to the quiet lounge and just hang out. Where's Bry boy?" Jill asked as everyone turned to the back of the bus. "He's in with Spooky. He is going to teach him about masturbation and explain some things to him. While they were having their bath time Spooky rolled over and began to very gently hump Bry boy. Bry boy just let him stop on his own then we called Eleanor and talked about it and they said to go ahead. So Bry boy is being super dad and filling Spooky in on whatever he feels the little guy needs to know," Nicky said with obvious pride in his voice about how incredible Bryan was. Jill smiled and nodded as everyone took a seat. The couples obviously sitting together. "So looking forward to Eric coming for a visit?" Shane asked. He had noticed how excited Kian was when he talked about the young man. "Yeah you guys are gonna love him. He is so sweet. Sorta like Bry boy in a lot of ways. Very emotional," Kian almost gushed. "You two gonna get together?" Nicky asked. "What like go out and do stuff? Sure we all will. I want you guys to get to know him and hang out with him too," Kian answered sounding a little confused. Shane had to hide a laugh as he saw Jill roll her eyes. "No honey, they mean are you and Eric gonna get together. Kiss. Touch. Make out," Jill clarified. Everyone watched as Kian's eyes got very wide and his breathing became erratic. "Breathe sweets," Shane said softly. Jill put her arms around Kian and held him, "Sorry babe. Look I know that you like Eric and that's cool. So if you two need to be together in that way, well I am okay with it. He's my brother after all and I know how sweet he is and of course you are just the ultimate guy for me, so if you are both okay with some lovin then go for it." Kian, his eyes still wide, suddenly stood and left quickly. He was soon followed by Jill. "Sorry guys, gotta go fix my man," Jill said happily. "Take it easy on him Beauty. Where the rest of us had at least some inkling or clues in our lives, I honestly don't think Kian ever thought about being with another man until he met Angel," Nicky said as he took Jill's hand before she passed. "I know. Don't worry guys. I love him. We will be fine," Jill said before squeezing Nicky's hand and heading to her and Kian's bedroom. - Teaching Spooky - Bryan smiled at the looks of love his two lovers sent him before leaving. Sleepy looks but filled with love anyways. "Unca Bwyan?" Spooky asked as he rolled over to snuggle in close. Once again Bryan and Spooky had been naked. "Yes my little boy?" Bryan asked. "I'm not scawed," Spooky said. "I'm glad," Bryan wasn't even surprised, "It's nothing to be scared of. Do you remember in the bathtub when you rolled over on me and rubbed your dick on me?" "Yes," Spooky answered and looked directly into Bryan's eyes. Bryan smiled back and pulled the little boy to lay on top of him. "It felt good for you didn't it? The feeling on your dick," Bryan continued. "Yes. And it was bettew than with teddy," Spooky said and Bryan almost giggled. "When boys get bigger and have boyfriends they can do that with each other. They can rub themselves together and it feels really nice. Now what I am going to say next though, I want you to know that I love you very very much and I am not mad at all at you. But you and me, we can't rub each other like that," Bryan said. Spooky raised his head and looked at Bryan with big watery eyes, "But you awe Unca Bwyan. I love you." Oh God this was gonna be harder than he thought. "And I love you. But Spooky honey I have Shane and Nicky and they are my boyfriends," Bryan was interrupted almost immediately. "I can be youw boyfwend too. They would let me," Spooky offered. "No honey you can't. You are too little right now and honey I don't love you the same as Shane and Nicky. See there are all kinds of love in the world. Let's see if we can think of them. First there is how you love your mommy and daddy. You love them lots don't you," Bryan asked and felt the little boy nod his head but also felt the tears on his chest as the little boy's heart broke. "And then there is the way your mommy loves your daddy. They love each other but it's different from the way they love you. That's the kind of love me and Nicky and Shane have. We love each other like mommy's and daddy's. Now there are other kinds of loves too but the only other really important one is the one that I have for you. That is a love very very deep. I love you like you are my own little boy." "You love me like a daddy?" Spooky asked. "Even more I think. I love you like a daddy and like a best friend and like an Unca and like a teacher and a hundred other ways, but not like a boyfriend. So honey I can talk to you and teach you things like what I am gonna teach you in a little bit. But we can't be boyfriends. And remember, you are going to have your own boyfriend later right? The little boy that is gonna make me a daddy is going to get you as his very special boyfriend," Bryan said. Spooky nodded his head. The two were silent for a bit. Bryan was at a point where he didn't know what to say next. Finally though it was Spooky who broke the silence. "I guess that is okay. I just liked it when I can touch you and it felt weally nice when I moved my penis on you," Spooky said. Bryan smiled and pulled the boy close. "I know. Now before we go further I want you to know that forever and ever I love you. You can always ask me anything and I will never lie to you or cheat you. Okay?" Bryan asked and felt the little boy nod. "Now I am going to teach you something very special. Only people who love you can teach you some things and your mommy and daddy love you very much and they know how much you and me love each other so they said I could be the one to teach you this. Okay?" Bryan asked. Spooky looked up at Bryan and nodded happily. "Okay let's sit up a bit," Bryan said as he moved the boy to the bed beside him. "Now first. Do you know the difference between a good touch and a bad touch?" Bryan asked. "Yes. A bad touch is if someone touches you on youw bum ow youw penis," Spooky answered immediately. "That's right. Now when you get older, your boyfriend and you will be allowed to touch each other there because you will love each other. Now what I want to teach you is how you can touch yourself there and make it feel very very good," Bryan said. Spooky smiled happily and looked down and rubbed his hand against rapidly rising penis. "Okay first some rules. This is called masturbation. But it has all kinds of other names too like jerking off or wanking and others," Bryan said. "You take it off?" Spooky asked in horror. At first Bryan didn't understand then it hit him, "No. Jerking off is just an expression. It's because when you are masturbating you are sort of pulling on it." "Does it huwt?" Spooky asked still with a look of horror. "Not at all my little boy. It feels very very good. Okay now masturbating is very nice. Usually you do it by yourself and it's a very private thing. You don't want other people to see you. Not because it's wrong to give yourself pleasure, just because you don't want people to see your dick," Bryan said. "Oh," Spooky answered. "But sometimes, when you get older, you may end up doing it with your friends and you will definitely do it with your boyfriend," Bryan added. "But I thought you said it was pwivate," Spooky argued. "Hmmm. Yes. Well sometimes in special circumstances you can share it," Bryan answered. Spooky looked thoughtful then got a big smile, "If I'm not suwe I will call you and you can tell me." Bryan nodded happily. "Okay now I will show you how to do it. But in order to teach you, I am going to have to touch your penis. Do you understand?" Bryan asked. Spooky nodded happily. "And why is this not a bad touch? I will be touching your penis," Bryan asked. "Cuz you awe Unca Bwyan and you awe teaching me and you love me and mommy and daddy said it was okay and cuz I love you," Spooky answered. "Okay honey. Now here is how you do it," Bryan said as he reached into the drawer for some lube, "This is called lube. It's slippery see." Spooky swirled his finger in the liquid and smiled happily. "Now I will give you some to take with you and when you run out you can ask me or your dad or your Uncle Eric to get you some more okay?" Bryan asked and Spooky nodded again. "Okay now you rub it on your penis like this," Bryan said as he coated his penis. "Now this is one way to masturbate. But you can try all different kinds of holds and positions to see which feels best. For now I will show you how and then I will help you learn okay?" Bryan asked and Spooky nodded again without taking his eyes from Bryan's penis. Bryan moved his hand up and down and caressed his dick for a couple of minutes then stopped. This was about helping his nephew not about getting off. "Okay now I am going to touch you and help you learn. Is that okay Spooky? Do you want me to go on or do you want to leave or call your mommy or anything else?" Bryan asked. "No," Spooky said with excitement. "Okay," Bryan took a deep breath and with his hand well lubed he reached out and took Spooky's hard little penis in his fingers. "Now your penis is different than mine. You have foreskin. That means you have to keep it clean, especially if you have been masturbating. You don't want to leave any lube on it so that it can attract dirt. If you do then it will start to smell and you can get an infection. But the really nice thing is that for boys who still have their foreskin, masturbating feels extra good," Bryan said. Spooky just watched as his Unca Bwyan moved his fingers all over his hard little penis coating it with lube. "Now one way to do it is like this," Bryan said as he skinned back the foreskin and rubbed his fingertips across the head several times, "Does that feel good?" Spooky nodded quickly, his breathing was quick and he was very excited. "Okay now you can also do it like this," Bryan said as he let the foreskin roll back over the head then moved his fingers up and down so that the foreskin stroked the head of Spooky's penis for him. Spooky actually made a little whimper at the intense sensations he was experiencing. "Now remember how I was doing it before? I used my whole hand and moved it up and down and then would rub across the top every now and then. There are lots of ways to do it and you can figure out which way you like best," Bryan smiled as the boy began to unknowingly thrust into Bryan's strokes. "Now this last part is important. It feels really good doesn't it?" Bryan asked as he watched the little boy. "Yes. But I have to pee," Spooky said. "No you don't. Now just trust me okay Spooky boy. You are not going to pee and even if you did I wouldn't be mad. Just remember I love you and enjoy it," Bryan said as he continued to gently manipulate the young boy. Soon Spooky's whole body went rigid, his little toes spreading wide and Bryan felt the little penis throb a couple of times as Spooky experienced his first ever orgasm. Spooky began to cry. Bryan took the boy into his arms and rocked him. "Shhh, it's okay. That was pretty intense huh. That's called an orgasm honey. When you masturbate long enough the good feelings just grow and grow till that happens. Now I know it was kinda scary but if you think about it, it also felt really good too huh?" Bryan asked softly. After a minute or two Spooky nodded then sat back a bit with bright eyes, "It felt weally good Unca Bwyan. Do it again." "Sorry honey, just the one time to show you. Now you have to do it on your own from now on. And it may take a little longer when you do it on your own. But when you are doing it you can think back and remember how good it felt just now or you can think of our bubble bath or when you and me and Uncle Nick showered together okay?" Bryan said. Spooky look dejected but then brightened up. "Can I do it to you?" he asked. Bryan's first thought was to say no but the look on the little boy's face just couldn't let him. "One time only Spooky. And it will teach you something else as well. Remember when we talked about cum?" Bryan asked as he reached for the lube to coat his dick again. "Yes. It looks like nilla milkshake," Spooky parted with his knowledge proudly. "That's right. Now when big boys have an orgasm, that is when you cum. When you get bigger and have an orgasm, cum is going to spurt out of your penis. Remember what we do when that happens?" Bryan asked. "We clean it up with a towel," Spooky said. "That's right. Okay now. Put your hand on my penis," Bryan said. Spooky gripped Bryan's penis. "Good, not too hard though. Now I don't have a foreskin like you so you have to use your hand like a foreskin. So you have to put your hand closer to the top and move it over the top of my penis," Bryan instructed. Spooky moved his hand up and down and smiled happily. "It feels vewy hawd. Does it huwt?" Spooky asked. "No. It feels very nice," Bryan said. He immediately thought of all his times making love and being made love to by Angel and Mark and his own lovers and anything other than the fact that his nephew was masturbating him. He wanted to do this for Spooky but he needed a full erection and if he thought about it too much he would lose his hard on. "Awe you gonna cum Unca Bwyan?" Spooky asked after a minute or two. "Pretty soon Spooky," Bryan said. After another minute or so Bryan said, "Okay now keep going Spooky but watch the top of my penis okay. You are going to see cum spurt out." The little boy stared intently as Bryan tensed and shot his load. "Yay!" Spooky cheered. Bryan smiled and gently moved the little boys hand from his now sensitive penis. "I did it good huh Unca Bwyan?" he asked. "You did it great. Now you can do it all by yourself," Bryan said and smiled as the little boy dutifully began to wipe up the cum from Bryan's chest and belly. Once he was done Spooky lay on top of Bryan. "Thank you for teaching me Unca Bwyan," Spooky said softly and then almost immediately fell asleep. "Your welcome my little Spooky," Bryan whispered and soon drifted off himself. - Caring for Kian - Jill walked into her room and looked at Kian lying on their bed with his arms crossed and staring straight up at the ceiling. "Kian?" Jill asked. "What?" Kian answered. Jill rolled her eyes and climbed onto the bed and lay on top of Kian who seemingly reluctantly moved his arms to hold her but still looked past her at the ceiling. "Tell me what's wrong," Jill said. "Nothing," Kian answered and Jill rolled her eyes again, "And don't roll your eyes at me this is serious to me." "So there is something. Come on and out with it so we can figure it out before we get home so you can actually enjoy your visit with Eric. Now what is wrong," Jill said. Jill then waited as Kian went through his internal struggle. "Do you love me?" Kian asked. "Of course, more than I can even think to express," Jill said. She thought she should feel upset that Kian even questioned this but she knew he was having some sort of problem and so didn't mean it in a bad way. "I like that I can be with the boys and Angel and that you are okay with it. But I want to be with you, I love you. It's nice with them and it is more than sex but I want to be with you," Kian said and made a face at his inability to express what he was feeling. "Honey you can't expect this all to work itself out overnight. You have never ever even thought of being with a man. And then we fell in love, and Sweets, I am madly in love with you. Forever. But then you realized that you also have deep feelings for your friends who are closer to you than anyone else. Then we all went and threw into the mix that you could be with them and share intimacy with them. And it's sort of thrown you off balance," Jill said. Kian just shrugged and continued to look at the ceiling. Both turned to look at the door as it opened and a very sleepy looking Spooky walked in and climbed onto the bed and sort of pushed Jill off of Kian to lay on top of Kian. "Hey Spooky. How come you aren't sleeping with Bry boy?" Kian asked. "I wanted to sleep with you Unca Keen," Spooky said. "Is everything okay? Are you upset or something?" Kian asked as he rubbed the little boy's back. "It was weally nice. He told me all about jewking off youw penis but you don't weally take it off," Spooky said happily but still in a half sleep. "Jerking off? Yes he said he was going to teach you. It's pretty nice huh?" Kian smiled. "Yes. I thought he didn't love me cuz he said we couldn't be boyfwends but then he told me thewe is lots of kinds of loves. Like my mommy and daddy love me but that is diffewent than how mommy loves daddy. Unca Bwyan said that he loves me bettew than a boyfwend and beside I will have a boyfwend of my own. I think it's nice that thewe awe so many kinds of love," Spooky said then fell asleep. Kian smiled at the soft snores and rubbed the little boys back for a long time then finally turned and looked at Jill. "Sorry," Kian said. "Nothing to be sorry for love. You better?" Jill asked with just a hint of surprise at how calm and almost serene Kian sounded. "Yeah," Kian smiled then looked at the top of Spooky's head. "Remember when Mark ran away and then we found him and you said it was all part of God's twisted miracle?" "Yeah," Jill said sounding confused. "I think we have our own little living miracle lying on top of me right now. And he's not twisted at all, he's wonderful and beautiful and so special to me he just fills my heart up with light," Kian said and smiled as Jill reached out to wipe a tear from his eye. "So what about Eric?" Jill asked. "We'll see how it goes. I love him Jill. I loved him so quick, like with Rye, and it just feels like we belong together. I am so happy he is going to be my brother. And if he wants to explore something beyond what we have now then I will not say no and if I can sense he wants to be with me but is scared I will let him know it is okay," Kian said. Jill smiled and snuggled down next to Kian and Spooky. "I don't know what Spooky said to help you get to this place but I'm grateful for whatever it was," Jill said. - Calming Eric - "Why not just leave now?" Eric asked of Eleanor with almost desperation. "I haven't packed. Nobody is expecting us until tomorrow. And us getting there earlier isn't going to get them home any faster," Eleanor explained and hid a smile. Eric sighed and threw himself onto the sofa. Eleanor rolled her eyes at her brother-in-law then sat beside him. She hadn't been going to say anything to him but with Jason out of the house and the state Eric was in she felt she should. "Eric honey, you're excited about seeing everyone again huh?" Eleanor began. "Yeah I miss them," Eric said. "Them? You don't even know them?" Eleanor replied. "Well Rye and Jill and Daniel," Eric answered back. "Spooky remember," Eleanor corrected, "Nobody else?" Eric actually blushed and looked away from Eleanor at the nearest bookshelf as if it was the most fascinating thing in the world. "Eric honey it's okay to miss Kian. He misses you too," Eleanor said. "Really?" Eric asked. "That's what Jill said. Eric I am going to tell you some stuff about the guys we are going to meet. I want you to listen to it all okay," Eleanor asked and Eric nodded. "You know all the couples. Jill and Kian. Rye and Mark. And the three boys. Now what you don't know is that they all share their love," Eleanor said. "I know, Kian said," Eric interrupted. "Okay but do you really understand what he said? I don't just mean they all love each other, which they do, I mean they are all intimate with each other. They share themselves with each other," Eleanor explained and saw understanding hit Eric. "All of them? Like an orgy?" Eric asked softly. "No not at all. My understanding is that it's all very loving and that mostly it is one of them sharing with Rye and Mark. But I guess that sometimes Kian will be with the other boys as well. Jill said once we are there it will be very clear to us that sex is just a small part of it and that it is the love that is what they share. I sort of already understand it I think. When we watched that interview with Rye and Mark, God you could just see how much they loved each other. I think mostly it is Rye though. I think that Rye is so full of love that he can bring someone else into the relationship to be intimate," Eleanor said. Now that she had started she realized she wasn't doing as good a job as she had hoped in explaining this. "So Kian," Eric gulped, "Kian has been with them all?" "Yes. And here's the big thing Eric, don't freak out. Jill is fine with it all and even encourages it and has already said that if you and Kian want to be together that way, intimately, then she is okay with that as well," Eleanor said. Eric's whole body went rigid as his eyes opened wide and he suddenly forgot to breathe. Eleanor saw this and right away began to speak again. "Now you know that Kian is bisexual, I understand he told you that himself. I know that you have always thought of yourself as straight but perhaps you also feel the need to experience some intimacy with Kian. That won't make you gay, or even necessarily bisexual. Jill said Kian is not interested in anyone other than the boys and Rye and now you," Eleanor said. "What?" Eric squeaked out. "She is pretty sure that Kian also has feelings for you that he would like to express with some intimacy but she hasn't talked to him about it yet. Look honey it's not going to be a big deal. No sorry, that's not what I mean. Obviously it is a big deal to you and to Kian as well I imagine. But to anyone else, it is just not gonna matter. Jill is fine with it and has said she is going to encourage Kian to explore his feelings for you. The rest of the boys and Rye are obviously going to be fine with it since they do it themselves. I have seen how you and Kian love each other from his visit and I think it would be a good thing. And Eric honey really the only ones that actually count here are you, Kian and Jill," Eleanor moved a bit on the sofa and took Eric into her arms. Eric just sat there leaning on Eleanor for a long time. "I love him very much. I just don't know what kind of love it is. I have never felt like this before. I am very confused. I have dreams about him sometimes. We never have sex in my dreams, just hold each other and touch a lot, but when I wake up I am really hard," Eric said blushing. He was 19 years old but when it came to love and sex he was a complete innocent. "It's okay baby. I think your best bet is to just let things happen. I think that you two will figure things out and that whatever you feel for each other will be worked out and everything will be fine," Eleanor said. - Can't Keep It Secret - Eric had barely slept the night before but as soon as they were all in the car and on the way to the loft he conked out. "I've never seen him so excited," Jason smiled and Eleanor turned to look at Eric as she heard the soft little snore and smiled as well. "He just can't wait to see Kian," Eleanor said. "Ellie? Is there something going on I should know about?" Jason asked. "Well there is something going on, I don't know that you should know about it though?" she answered with a grin then continued, "But I will tell you. What's funny is that I keep deciding to let you figure stuff out on your own then going ahead and telling you anyway." "It's my natural charm," Jason smirked. "Okay well I will just tell you everything then we can talk about it. First off all the boys apparently are intimate with each other. They have rules and it's not an orgy but they do all share some level of intimacy," Eleanor said and waited for a reaction. "So they are kissing and touching and stuff? I guess there is just so much love they can do that and everyone still be in love with their partner," Jason said thoughtfully. He looked at his wife after there was no immediate response and had to laugh at her dumbstruck look. "How did you figure that out? I mean, how did you...." Eleanor had to stop and stare at her husband. "I had a long talk with Marg one night about love and what it is really about. She said that love and sex are two different things. You can have sex with no love and you can have love with no sex but if you can have love and sex then that is the most intimate and personal of things. I knew she was trying to tell me something so after she left I thought about it and tried to figure it out. Finally it just dawned on me, all those boys and Rye are intimate together. Honestly though I thought it was probably like an orgy. Obviously you know different so tell me about it," Jason said. Eleanor hugged her husband, as safely as she could while he was driving, "Jill said that the three boys are lovers and of course she is with Kian. Apparently they all have been intimate with Rye and Mark. Rye and Mark were sort of the teachers for the others. But she says it is all about the love and the sex is almost incidental. It's just a very intimate way of sharing their love. They do have rules, of which I didn't ask, but my understanding is they are totally devoted to their own lovers and the rules help to keep things separate between love of a lover and love of a friend." "Sounds odd but I know Jill would never be involved with people who were doing anything bad and she certainly wouldn't allow Daniel to be there if there was something bad going on," Jason said. "Spooky," Eleanor corrected. "Doh, I forgot. I hope he gives us time to get used to that. And I hope he takes it easy on me for a bit til I can get used to his gifts," Jason said. "There is something else you should be aware of honey," Eleanor said softly. Jason turned to her and looked at her and then his eyes got wide as he turned briefly and looked at the still sleeping Eric, "Eric and Kian?" Eleanor was once again surprised, "You know I never thought about it before but I just realized where Spooky gets some of his gifts. Yeah they have feelings for each other that they are going to need to explore." "And Jill is okay with it?" Jason asked again just as softly. "I get the feeling she is the one who is pushing for it but yeah she wants it too," Eleanor said and Jason raised an eyebrow. "She always was a little odd but as long as they are all okay with it and Eric doesn't get hurt and they don't screw up Spooky then it's not really my business," Jason reasoned. "That's the way I feel but Jason honey, we also can't be neutral about it. I mean it doesn't really concern us but we have to be loving and supportive of all those men for Spooky and Eric who love them all very deeply. While we may not be a part of it we have to accept it," Eleanor said and Jason nodded. "Yeah, and honestly I do. Marg and Johann changed me. In this crap world where there is so much hate, when we find love we accept it. And honestly, I know Rye, this is not sex it is love, it has to be. So I am okay with it and am going to accept it and if it is offered to me, hell I am gonna take that too," Jason said and this time it was Eleanor who raised an eyebrow. "Jill said you can feel it. Their love I mean. It's like a physical force that reaches out and touches you and wraps you up in it and changes you. She said it will change us and make our own love grow," Eleanor replied softly. Eric stirred in the back and stretched, "Are we there yet?" This caused the two up front to burst into laughter and the rest of the trip was spent laughing and joking. .....tbc
