Jesse said as he looked at the taped cotton ball in the bend of his left arm. "You never had blood drawn before?" Adam sakes, amazed. "Yeah, when I was little, I guess. My folks weren't big on doctors. Always cost to much they said." He looked away from Adam. There were still so many thing he hadn't told Adam about his past. They had been best friends for more years than he could remember and not once, could he think of a time that Adam spent the night at his house. "I've had to have it done a few times but not much." He pulled the taped cotton ball off and tossed it into the trash as they walked out to the lobby where Francine sat waiting. "Well?" She asked. "It went okay. We just have to wait the usual two weeks for the results." Adam replied. He smiled at his mother. Jesse looked at Adam with a new respect. He was dealing with everything like it was an everyday occurrence. He couldn't actually remember having his blood drawn before. "So, what's the plan boys?" She asked as she unlocked the station wagon. "Ice cream?" Adam asked. He smiled and wiggled his eye brows up and down. A stunt he had learned from his father. "Sure, I can handle taking my little soldiers for ice cream." She replied. She smiled and laughed. Adam was being his silly old self and she loved it. It was Jesse that was concerning her. He had been so quiet last night and this morning. "Jesse, can I speak to you for a second?" She asked. She caught the look Adam gave her and nodded. "Yes ma'am?" He asked. "You okay bud?" "Yeah, I guess. I just have so much going on in my head. I'm supposed to go back to the comic shop after school today." he said, then looked through the car window at Adam who was watching them. "Oh," she thought for a moment. "What do you want to do Jesse?" She had spent the night thinking about what the boy had told her the night before and was even less inclined to go along with the plan. It seemed far to dangerous. She wanted to just call the police and report what they knew and be done with it. "I'm going today. I hope Adam will go in with me but that'll be up to him." Jesse said. He didn't like talking to Adam's mom about this stuff but there was no one else to talk to. "You know how I feel about using Adam. I don't like it. We should just go to the police station and report the whole mess here and now. That is what I am inclined to doing to, to tell you the truth. It's the polices' job to bust this guy. Not two fifteen year old boys." "Okay." "You'll go to the police?" She asked hopefully. "No, I won't take Adam in there with me. I will agree to you talking to the police though, when the time is right. "I really am at a loss. I've talked to a few friends online and they seem to be split down the middle on the matter." She asked. "Hey!" Adam called from the car. "What's going on?" He was very annoyed about being left out. He got out of the car and closed the door harder than he meant to, then walked over to where Jesse and his mother were standing near a tree at the end of the parking lot. "Honey, we're just having a little discussion about what Jesse needs to do to get his life organized." "Something you can't talk about in front of me? I thought I was a part of his life now." Adam said, angry. He crossed his arms in front of his chest and stood, watching them. "Okay, Adam. Let's get in the car." Francine Conner said. She walked over and got behind the wheel as the boys climbed into the back. She noticed that they did not hold hands; barely even looked at each other. When they got their ice cream and found an outside table the three of them sat down. "After this it's off to school." Francine said, as she sipped her mocha shake. "Mom, it's one already." Francine looked at her watch. "Damn, two days out of school in a row. You two are going to have major catch up work to do when you get back tomorrow." Jesse ate his vanilla and almond Sunday in silence. "We'll manage." Adam replied. "Jesse, I assume Adam knows your plans?" "Most of them." Jesse replied. "There are a few details I'm still ironing out. When this is over I don't want either of our names connected to anything. If the kids at school find out I was in porn movies, me and Adam will never have any peace." "How do you propose to get this set up? Don't you think any other boys will feel the same way as you do about getting caught in the middle of a sting like this?" "I hadn't really thought it all out. Like I said, still working on the details." "It's up to Adam how involved in this he wants to be. I can't approve of any of this but I know my son, and he won't sit back and watch the action." She thought about what she had said. "That didn't sound right, but you know what I'm trying to say." "We know, mom." Adam said. He looked at Jesse. "I want to help." "I guess we go from here to the comic shop then. Spend the day just hanging out there and see what happens next." Jesse said, looking at the woman at the table, then at her son. (2) Adam said very little on the way from the ice cream place to the comic shop. His mom had given him twenty bucks to buy something if he wanted it, more of a back up if things weren't right for what Jesse had in mind. This way he'd have a reason for being there. He looked at Jesse and reached over to take the boy's hand in his. Jesse wasn't responsive at first but loosened up and squeezed the offered hand. "Call me when you want to come home." She said from the front seat. The boys got out of the car and Jesse pushed the door closed quickly. The station wagon slid into the flow of traffic and disappeared down the street. "Last chance to back out babe." Jesse said. "I'm in it with you." Adam replied. He hoped he sounded more confident that he sounded. "Let's go." Jesse opened the door and Adam went in ahead of him, he followed, pulling the door closed. "Good afternoon boys." Clay said from the desk behind the counter. "I wasn't expecting both of you." He stood and walked to the counter. "We'll, you have both of us, for the afternoon at least." Jesse said. "How's business?" Jesse said it in a way that let Clay know he wasn't referring to the comic shop. "A little busier than usual today. Phillip and Tommy are in back." Clay said. He watched Jesse closely, there was something way off about that boy today. "Why aren't you in school?" "Had a doctor's appointment that took longer than expected." Jesse answered. Adam had moved back to the new comic display. There were several of his weekly titles up so he pulled them. He wasn't thrilled about giving this guy money but he was already here... He didn't want to admit that he was a little turned on about someone taking his picture. He had been thinking about this for days and getting more turned on by the thought of it. "You two can go on back, if you want." Clay said. "I'll close up and be back when I can." Adam walked to the counter with the five comics. He placed them in front of Clay. The man reached under the counter, removed a brown bag and placed the comics in it. He shook his head when Adam went to hand him the money. Adam shrugged and put the twenty back in his wallet. He didn't feel bad about taking from Clay anymore, not after all he had taken from Jesse, and in a way, from him. "Come on babe. I'll show ya around." Jesse led Adam to the back door and unlocked it. They walked in and Jesse pulled the door closed quietly. "This is it? I guess I was expecting more." Adam said as he looked around at three separate sets, two bedrooms and a den. "There's more in the basement. I'm not fond of down there though." "What's down there?" Adam asked, nervous. "The dungeon." Adam looked at Jesse with big eyes and gulped. "Dungeon, as in.." "Yeah." He walked over to the steps and led Adam down to the pit of hell. (3) Jesse knocked on the door before sneaking a quick peak in to see what Tommy and Phillip were up to. He didn't want Adam getting scared, so if they were in the harness or some other bizarre activity he could rush Adam back upstairs. He also wanted to make sure there were no cameras rolling. "What are you two freaks into?" He asked. He saw that the boys, though naked, were just sitting in a pair of director's chairs in the corner drinking sodas. "Talking, what about you?" Tommy said. His attractive face lit up with a smile, now that Jesse was there, they could really do some wicked cool shit. "Any cams running?" Jesse asked. "Nah, cut it off before we sat down, why? You gettin' camera shy?" Phillip said. He laughed at his own bad humor. He sat with legs stretched out in front of him, crossed at the ankles. His smooth body shining with sweat. He was very tan and had no body hair. He had been in the habit of shaving it all off since it started growing when he was thirteen. His soft cock lay against his right thigh. It was a good six inches soft and not far from that around. "Lookin' hot there boy." Jesse said to Phillip. He had only been in a few scenes with Phillip, and only once had he bottomed with the boy. It had been one of the best fucks he had ever had, on or off camera, up until Adam, anyway. "Not so bad yourself boy." Phillip said. "You comin' in here or hangin' in that door all afternoon?" He uncrossed his legs and sat up in the chair. "I have Adam with me." Jesse said. He was worried about Adam seeing the two boys naked but was unsure of asking them to cover themselves. "You're shittin' me!" Phillips said. He looked truly shocked. He stood and walked to a pile of clothes in the corner, picked up a pair of shorts, and slid them on. Tommy watched, shrugged his shoulders, and got up and slid into his own shorts. Jesse was relieved that he didn't have that problem any more. He pushed the door open and led Adam into the brick walled basement. Adam looked at the two boys standing by separate piles of clothes. He couldn't help but let his eyes roam the bodies of his friend and the other boy. He had met Phillip a few times but never had much reason to really get to know him. He was one of Tommy's buddies and until recently, figured he was just as straight as Tommy was. He was proved wrong on both counts. "What's all this stuff for?" Adam asked. He looked at the leather and chain harness in one corner. There was an open cabinet with all manner of sex toys hanging on hooks. "Their just toys dude." Phillip said. "Nothing to hurt anybody with." He looked the new boy over. He didn't know much about Adam Conner. He had been at a birthday party for him the previous year but only because he had been hanging with Tommy and he had been invited. He had noticed how sexy the little blond boy was then but didn't think about him again until Tommy had mentioned that he and Jesse had started up together. "This is all pretty strange. Jesse just told me about all this stuff, well, not this stuff, but the movies and pictures." Adam said. He started chewing his lower lip as was his habit when nervous. "How you dealin' man?" Phillip asked. "Little confused I guess." Adam replied. He looked over at Tommy who had yet to say anything. "You going to say anything bud?" "Sorry Adam. I guess you're pretty pissed at me." Tommy leaned against the cool brick wall. "I was. I guess I'm over it." Adam said, but he wasn't so sure he meant it. "I'm still a little hurt that you and Jesse's been keeping secrets from me." He looked from Tommy to his boyfriend. Jesse looked away, ashamed and scared that this visit would change Adam's feelings for him. He didn't know how he would make it if Adam stopped loving him. It would make his new living arrangements almost as hellish as his previous home life, maybe more so, seeing Adam every day, all day, and knowing he could never be close to his friend again. Adam reached out and took Jesse's hand in his own. He squeezed lightly to let the other boy know that they were okay. Jesse squeezed back and turned, smiling at his best friend turned lover. His heart felt a hundred pounds lighter instantly. "Oh, god! You two are so sweet it's killin' me!" Phillip said, feigning disgust but showing a twinkle in his eye. If they knew how much he longed for what they had, they would never believe it. He wanted what they had, with Tommy, but doubted he would ever have it. He knew Tommy's feeling about relationships, especially with other boys. Jesse stuck his tongue out at the boy. "Don't make promises you don't plan on keepin' dude!" Phillip said. He laughed. The other boys laughed as well, enjoying just hanging out together. "Adam, you gonna join us?" Phillip asked. He hoped the boy would say yes, but thought it would be better if he said no. That would mean he really was committed to Jesse. "I don't know. I kind of like keeping that stuff between just me and Jesse, you know?" "Yeah, I got ya dude." Phillip said. He was relieved. "I hope I get to watch you two some time." He laughed. Adam's eyes grew big as his mouth dropped open. This reaction caused the other boys to break into hysterics. "I'm kiddin' man." Phillip said when he got the laughter under control. "That reaction! Now that shoulda been captured on film!" Adam relaxed. His eyes caught the front of Phillip's shorts. The boy was semi-hard and the head of cock had slipped out the top of the waist band. Phillip realized what the younger boy was looking at and tucked himself back in. "Sorry about that. Sucker has a mind of his own some times." "It's so..." Adam started. "Big?" Tommy finished for him. "Yeah." Adam chewed at his lip even more. "Wanna see it?" Phillip asked. Adam looked over at Jesse and saw that his friend was smiling. Adam nodded his head. Philip smiled and moved his hands to the waist band of his shorts. He was completely hard at the thought of showing the cute boy his nine inch cock. He gripped the shorts and slid them down slow, revealing a little bit of his smooth pubic area. He wondered what Adam would think of the smooth look. Adam felt like his eyes were going to pop out of his head. He had never seen a cock so large on anybody in his life. He had seen pictures on t he net and stuff but never believed that anybody could really be so huge. He had to admit to himself that he was pleased to see the truth. "Wow!" Adam said. "You shave it all?" "It ain't naturally smooth bud!" Phillip said, smiling. "I been shavin' it since I was thirteen. Never liked hair down there." He raised his arms. "I shave under these too." The boy's arm pits were as smooth as his pubes. "That is so...wild. Me and Jesse have talked about doing that to each other after school lets out for the Summer." "Why not go ahead and do it?" Phillip said. He had been fortunate in that he had a back problem which had kept him out of PE for most of his school years. He and his mom had been in a car accident when he was eleven. His back had been seriously damaged and he had suffered through an operation which left him with metal cages around his spine and a scar up the lower third of his back. When being filmed Clay was always careful to not get the scar in the shot whenever possible. "I don't want the guys in the locker room making fun of me." Adam said. "I don't really care if they look at me but I'm waiting to do it with Adam." Jesse said. "That's cool." Phillip said. He bent over and picked the dropped shorts up, tossing them back onto the pile of clothes. Tommy looked at Adam. "Wanna see me too?" He asked curiously. He had always wanted to get it on with his friend but Jesse put and end to those thoughts the first time he mentioned it. "Sure." Adam said with a smile. He hoped Jesse wasn't getting angry or jealous. Tommy smiled as he pulled his shorts down over his hips. He caught them with a foot and dropped them on his pile. The boy's seven and a half inch cock stood straight out. He had pubic hair but it was trimmed down. The boys balls were completely shaved smooth. "Okay, our turn." Phillip said, half joking. Adam looked at Jesse. He wasn't sure if this was a good idea or not. He didn't so much mind stripping in front of the boys but he would have to let Jesse make the decision. Jesse looked at Phillip, wanting to be angry with the boy for making the comment. He didn't care but he wanted it to be Adam's choice. He looked to his lover and saw that Adam was waiting for him to decide. "Hold it a second." Jesse said. He nodded to the door to let Adam know he wanted to talk privately. The boys moved away slightly. "Do you want to?" Jesse asked Adam. "Yeah, I kind of do. I just don't want you to get pissed at me." "I won't get pissed baby. I admit I wasn't planning on this today but I guess if you want to, and since they were freely showing, it won't hurt anything." "Okay." Adam said as he looked back and Tommy and Phillip. "You want to touch it, don't you?" Jesse asked. "What?" "You want to wrap a hand around Phillip's rod." Jesse said. He wanted to be jealous but he remembered how he had felt the first time he saw Phillip naked. He had been near to busting to grab that thing. "Yeah, I guess." Adam said. His face turned pink and he lowered his eyes. "Heh, it's okay. I felt the same was the first time I saw that thing." "Really?" Adam asked, looking up. "Oh, yeah." Jesse said. "Can I ask you something Jesse?" "Sure thing babe." Jesse replied. "Have you had sex with him?" It was Jesse's turn to go pink and look away. "Yeah, Adam, I have." "Okay." Adam said. "You ready?" "Sure baby." Jesse said. He took Adam's hand and they walked back over. "That was some pow- wow you two had goin'." Phillips said. "Just a little discussion between lovers." Jesse said, proud of his boyfriend. "So?" The boy asked. "We decided to go for it." Jesse said. He pulled his shirt out of his pants, unbuttoning enough to slip the thing over his head. He tossed the shirt off to the side and reached down to his pants. Adam, watching, followed at the same pace as Jesse. Shirt then pants. He was so nervous he couldn't think straight. This was his first time getting naked in front of anybody but Jesse, outside of the locker room that is. Jesse stood in nothing but a pair of bikinis. He had pilled his pants, shoes, socks and shirt neatly. He watched as Adam slipped the slacks down his legs. He could tell his lover was scared. For a second he wanted to call the whole thing off. Adam kicked off his shioes and slipped the pants completely off. Unlike Jesse, he was wearing a pair of white boxer shorts. He bent over and pulled his socks off and placed them inside his shoes. "Nice." Phillip said. He wanted to help Adam off with those boxers but thought better of it. He found himself wanting the blond boy in a major way. He knew he belonged to Jesse for life, but he wanted just an hour or so in bed with the boy. Adam watched Jesse take off his bikinis and toss them to the stack before he slipped his own boxers off. He followed Jesse's lead and tossed them aside. There, he thought, naked and getting hard in front of two boys and his lover. He found himself not being as nervous as he had been to start with. Phillip eyed the boy carefully, taking in every beautiful inch. He had never seen anyone as completely perfect as Adam Conner. He thought about his scars and felt like a dog compared to this boy. "Show him your back, man." Tommy said. "What's up with your back?" Adam asked. "I had an accident when I was eleven, had to have surgery." "That's no big deal." Adam said. Phillip turned around. He was a little modest about letting people see the long, crooked scar. Showing his cock and asshole was easy, letting the scar be seen, that was hard for him. "That's nothing." Adam said, smiling. It was a nasty looking scar but it didn't detract from Phillip's otherwise very handsome body. If he didn't have Jesse he would be tempted to try and start something with this guy. "Man, Adam, I never imagined how hot you were." Tommy said. He had seen his friend naked in the locker room and a time or two at sleep overs' when they were younger but he had never realized just how hot the boy was. "Thanks guys." Adam said. The four boys stood, naked, together in silence for several moments. All having their own thoughts to work through about the other boy. None of the boys noticed that Clay was standing at the door watching the exchange. He admired Adam's young body. He looked so much younger that fourteen, with what little pubes he had shaved away, he would probably pass for eleven or twelve. He had to find a way to get this boy alone, but getting Jesse out of the picture long enough to do what he wanted with this kid would be a major exercise, if it were possible at all. He couldn't wait until later, when the boys were gone, so that he could get the tape from the two hidden cameras that no one knew about but himself. This would be a real money maker, and a sexy jack off to boot. He smiled and slipped back up the stairs so that the boys wouldn't know they had been watched. "You know Clay was just at the door don't you?" Tommy said. "I felt him looking at us." Jesse said. He was annoyed but had no one to blame but himself for letting that guy get an eyeful of Adam. Now he would have to be twice as careful about keeping them apart. "Damn, is that what that was? I felt weird when I was slipping off the boxers." "That was Clay's pervert ass watching you. I thought his fuckin' eyes were going to pop out like a damn cartoon or something." Tommy said. "Fuckin' freak." Jesse said. He looked around the room and back to the door then spoke again, his voice lower. "Hey, can you guys come by Adam's house later tonight?" "Sure, cool." Tommy said. "Yeah, I guess. What's up?" Phillips replied. "Tonight." Jesse said. He looked over at Adam who was standing, looking closely at the harness which hung on chains from the rafters of the ceiling. "What is this for?" Adam finally asked. He could not control his curiosity over the strange looking set up. "That is a harness." Phillip said as he walked over to where Adam stood. "Wanna see how it works?" He asked. "Yeah, I guess. I don't want to be strung up in it though." Adam said. "I didn't think you would bud." Phillip turned to Tommy. "Hey, T, rig me up in this sucker so the newbie can check it out." "Yeah, okay." Tommy said and walked over to join the other two boys. Jesse followed but said nothing. He was curious as to just how interested in this stuff Adam was. He didn't believe that his boyfriend would actually get into this kind of stuff. Probably just wants to see, he figured. Phillip slipped into the leather seat area while Tommy and Jesse strapped him in. The boy maneuvered himself into a comfortable position as his legs were pulled apart and strapped into position. He then felt his arms being tied in. He watched Adam's face as the two boys worked him up. Adam was amazed at the contraption the boy was in. He hung from the ceiling with his arms strapped above him and les legs spread wide apart, chained to the ceiling beam with chains that hooked into the leather straps. He could see the boy's asshole easily. It was pink, and it looked like it had been used a lot more than his own had. He couldn't help but feel horny and scared at the same time. No way in hell would anybody get him into that thing, uh-uh! "Whatta ya think bud?" Phillip said as he moved in an effort swing himself. He didn't get into this stuff that often but he had used it a few times. Made getting fucked really easy and exciting as hell. He thought about getting Adam strapped in then fucking him until he screamed for mercy, and more, all at once. "Weird." Adam said. "What now? You just hang there?" "Nah, when the guy is in the harness, another guy, or guys line up and fuck him. This is a popular toy for gang bangs." Tommy said. He slapped Phillip on the left ass cheek. "You just grease up his ass a bit, slick your cock down and go for glory." He walked over to the cabinet, removed a tube of KY and three condoms. He walked back to the group. "Here." He handed Jesse and Adam each a condom. "You mean, we're suppose to fuck him?" Adam asked shocked. He didn't think he'd be ready for this kind of stuff. He hoped Jesse would decline to. "I don't think so. Maybe another time." he handed the condom back to Tommy. "Keep it, you may change your mind." Tommy said. Phillip was swinging a little and whistling some odd tune that Adam could just barely recognize but couldn't name. "Jesse?" Tommy asked. "We'll watch you guys for right now." Jesse said as he took Adam's hand and led him over to the chairs that the other two had been using when they arrived. "Cool." Tommy said. He placed the KY tube at Phillip's anus and squeezed a glob of the clear jelly into the boy's whole. "See, Adam, you get him good and greased then slip on your rubber." Tommy demonstrated as he tore the packet open and removed the latex condom. His fingers worked quickly as he slid the sheath down his rod, making adjustments for comfort as he went; then he applied a bit of jelly to his latex covered cock. Adam watched amazed as Tommy began fingering Phillip's asshole. His cock was harder than ever as he watched the show. Tommy noticed how excited Adam and Jesse were. He could see Jesse slowly stroking himself while Adam just watched wide eyed. He slipped into position and pushed his cock into Phillip's ass. He had turned the camera on while he got the stuff from the cabinet. He figured he might as well tape it since they were going to fuck anyway. Jesse looked over at his sexy lover. He smiled at the expression on Adam's face. He knew that they would never do this but it was fun to watch Tommy and Phillip. he was sorely tempted to lube up and take a poke at Phillip himself. It had been months since the last time they had done anything together, on or off camera. "Jesse?" Adam asked without looking away from the action. "Yeah, babe?" He replied. "Do you want to, you know, fuck him?" Adam chewed his lip and looked away for the first time to see Jesse's face. "I wouldn't mind, but I respect us too much to even suggest the idea." Jesse replied, honestly. He loved his boyfriend way to much to do anything to wreck things. If Adam wanted to try it though, he might go along, since they were together. It would have to be Adam's move, one way or another. "Fuck me!" Phillip yelled as he swung back and forth pushing his ass further onto Tommy's thin cock as, Tommy set the pace, jamming in. Phillip felt the full length of Tommy's cock inside of him. The head kept hitting that perfect spot on his prostate, sending explosions of pleasure through him. He hoped that Jesse would give him a few hard slams when Tommy finished up. "I kind of want to see you do him." Adam said. "It looks wild. I've never seen you do it, just felt it, you know?" He had worried that bottom lip until he got it bleeding a bit. "Damn," Jesse got up and went to where a box of Kleenex sat on a table and pulled a few tissues. He returned to Adam. "Hold still and quit with the lip." He said, slightly annoyed. "I'm sorry, I didn't even realize..." Adam said, afraid that he had ruined everything and pissed Jesse off to boot. "I'm sorry I snapped." Jesse said. He kissed Adam on the forehead and sat back in his chair. His cock had gone down to half mast but he figured he would be back to full wood soon enough. Adam wanted him to fuck Phillip. That was unexpected. "Adam, I don't want to you to get upset with me." "I won't. I..." he paused, going for the lip again. "Stop with the lip, Adam. You what?" "I want to do him but I can't unless you do." He spoke in a soft voice. "I don't want that camera on though." "The cameras' on?" Jesse looked to the tripod in the corner which was aimed at the opposite corner where Tommy was fucking Phillip like a wild man. "Shit, how long has that been running?" He asked without expecting an answer. "Tommy turned it on when he got the lube and condoms." Adam replied. "Oh, okay. I'll make him turn it off if you or I decide to play for sure." Tommy pulled his cock out of Phillip, wide open hole and snatched the condom off, making sure that he was in frame when he shot a massive load of cum across Phillip's inner thighs and watched as some slid down around the freshly fucked anus. He was clean so he didn't worry. He and Phillip got tested every three months. he had only used the condom because Jesse had Adam here with him. He didn't want his friend to think that they all went bareback all the time. In fact, he and Tommy almost always did it without protection and he and Jesse did as well, but not Phillip and Jesse. "Damn, that was fine!" Tommy said as he leaned against the wall and took a few deep breaths. Phillip looked very happy as he hung there with only a slight swinging movement. "Next!" He called out and laughed. "You sure?" Jesse asked. "Yeah." Adam said. He had the most sweetly wicked expression on his face. His cock was so hard it was almost red. "Maybe you better go first." Jesse said. "O-okay." Adam said. he stood up and walked over to the harness. "Stop right there." Jesse said quickly when he remembered the camera. He hoped that Adam hadn't made it into frame yet. "What's wrong?" Adam asked, scared again. "Camera." Jesse replied with a nod to the tripod. "You sure guys?" Phillip said. "You could earn a nice bonus for this kind of stuff." "A bonus?" Adam said. "Money?" "Or credit upstairs, whichever floats your boat." Phillip said. "I go for cash every time." "Same here, man." Tommy said. He had taken one of the empty director's chairs. Adam stood watching the camera, then Phillip. He looked back at Jesse to see what his reaction was. He didn't know what to do. He wanted to in a bad way. He thought about all the great comics upstairs that he needed. "Adam." Jesse said. There was a warning tone in his voice. "Think about this babe. You do it and it's forever." He was nervous as he waited for Adam's decision. Tommy and Phillip both looked at the boy questioning him with their eyes. Jesse stood a few feet away. Adam just stood, looking back and forth between the other boys, the camera, and Jesse, not knowing what to do.
