This is a complete work of fiction, and is not to be read if you do not wish to see such content. With that being said, enjoy. Its been two weeks now since my last dream, and things were back to the way they were before the dreams started. Me and Katie were still hanging out all the time at school and away from school, more now than before, cause I was starting to try to get my life back in order and trying to forget about Steven. I would pass him in the hall, and he would just look at me with a depressed look on his face. Even though it still hurt, I was starting to survive. I was sitting in my room when the phone rang one night. "Hello." I asked "Look, I am at the last meet of the season, and you have got to get down here, you'll never believe whats going on." It was Katie, and she sounded really excited about something. "Look I'm really not in the mood." I said trying to blow her off. "You will be for this, just get your ass down here." She said hanging up on me. I put the phone back on the hook and started to get ready. I was interested to see what was going on, but apprehensive at the same time, but it had to be something good, otherwise Katie wouldn't have sounded so excited High School Daze: Chapter 4: After the phone call from Katie, I got dressed quickly not wanting this to take up too much of my time, and not really wanting to go down to the school in the first place. I hadn't been to a meet since the attack, and the breakup, so I was a bit reluctant to go this time, but curiosity got the best of me. I got in my car and drove down to the school. When I got to the school, I had to park at the top lot seeing as the bottom one closest to the gym was full with the cars of the swim fans. I walked into the building, and I went to find Katie who was sitting at the front by the consession stand, and when she saw me she ran up to talk to me. "What is going on, you know I don't want to be here." I asked a little pissed off at the intrusion. "Look, just calm down. I'll explain, just come with me." She said leading me to the stands. "It all started at the first race. Steven came dressed in his usual speedo, you know the ugly green ones with the school colors on them, I know how much you hate those. Everything was going normal until he got on the platform to start his race. He reached into his waistband and pulled his speedo off, and look what he had on underneath it." She said pointing to where Steven was sitting waiting for the next race. I looked over and was shocked to see him sitting there pretty much alienated from the rest of the team, and he was wearing a rainbow colored speedo. I was shocked, I couldn't believe what I was seeing. "Oh, and that's nothing. On the back of them, his has your name patched on." She said sitting down in the seat that we had just made it too. "What? You've got to be kidding me, what is he thinking?" I asked not wanting to sit down, but the people behind me were starting to get pissed, so I took my seat. "It wouldn't be such a thing, but in his first race, he beat the school record, and in the second race, he beat the state record. They're people talking everywhere about him beating the national record, but noone is even talking to him down there. None of the players have said anything too him since he showed off his new speedos, not even the coach is saying anything too him. After the first race I saw his parents come down and say something to him, but he whispered something in their ears, and they just walked away looking pissed off, I think he told them, and I don't think they took it too well." Katie said, and I was still shocked, but after she finished telling me about the events of the meet, I saw Steven stand up, and he was taking his place on the platform to begin the final race. I watched mesmerized by him as always. He was going up against some of the top swimmers in the state, and he was displaying to the world his true self. When he turned around, I could see that the word JACOB was patched on the back, and I couldn't believe it. He took his position, and when the gun fired, he jumped into the water, and started off with a comanding lead. He was going about twice as fast as anyone else. Steven made his first turn and was halfway back before the other swimmers even made the turn. The whole crowd was mesmerized by the way that this young kid was swimming, but I knew in my heart that he was cappable of anything. I was watching the clock above the pool, and it seemed to be moving slower than anything I had ever seen before. It seemed like it was taking forever for this race to finish, the crowd was on the edge of their seats watching this possible historic event. Steven was making his final turn, and he was almost 2 lengths ahead of the rest of the pack. We all held our breathes as he made his way to the platform. When he touched the platform, and the clock stopped, it read 03:38:47, which was the fastest that he had raced the whole day, and the crowd was waiting to hear the official time. Steven got out of the water and his entire team ran over to him, and started congratulating him and hugging him, not seeming to care about the statement that he had been making the whole day, but completly overwhlemed by the athletic feat that he had apparently just acomplished. When the rest of the swimmers finished their race, they each slowly began making their way over to the crowd and congratulating him as well. After all the swimmers had made their way out of the water the announcer blasted over the loud speaker announcing the official time. "Ladies and gentlemen at 3 minutes 38.47 seconds Steven Patrick has just set a new WORLD Record in the event of the 400 meter freestyle. Congratulations Steven that was one hell of a race, and one hell of a day." The announcer spoke, and the crowd went wild. Noone cared about the statement that he had made, they all just wanted to get down there and congratulate him on his outstanding race. I was excited, and I wanted to rush down and congratulate him myself in my own way, but I figured that I would probably have plenty of time for that later. The crowd began to file down to offer their congratulations, so I took this as my cue to leave. I was going to go home, and I was hoping that Stephen would find me there later. I got up to leave, and Katie was right on my heels. "Where are you going, don't you want to go down there and see him." She asked confused by my speedy departure. "Yeah, more than anything, but I don't want to take the spotlight off of his race. Just if you would hang around and tell him that I will be at home later, and that I am very proud of him for everything." I said, and I turned and walked out of the building not wanting to give Katie the chance to stop me. I finally got to my car, and I drove back home thinking of everything that I had just witnessed. I couldn't believe what Steven did, not only did he break the world record, but he showed the entire world who he really was, and he didn't really seem to care what they thought. I didn't really try and think of anything long term, but I couldn't help but wonder how things were going to be from now on. Things were definately going to change, I just hoped they were for the better. I finally got to my house, and I pulled the car in the drive. I sat in the driveway still thinking for about five minutes, then I turned the car off and went into the house. When I walked inside, I could hear my mom in the kitchen cooking something, so I decided to walk in and talk to her and tell her what happened. "Hi mom." I said entering the kitchen "Hi honey, where have you been all night?" She asked as she was putting the cookie dough on a sheet pan. "I was watching the swim meet." I asked reaching for one of the fresh chocolate chip cookies that she had just taken out of the oven. "I didn't think you would be going back to those after what happened." She said looking up with concern "Katie called me and told me it was important that I be there, so I went." I said "What was so important?" She asked while putting the pan in the oven. "Oh, nothing much, just Steven coming out to the whole school, and telling pretty much everyone that me and him were together." I said matter-of-factly. "He did what?" She asked stunned stopping everything that he was doing. I told her the entire story not leaving out a single detail. She looked on in astonishment the entire time, but didn't ask any questions. I think she was more shocked than I was. "I'm expecting him to stop by tonight, is that okay." I said not even trying to hide my excitement. "Yeah thats fine, I just hope this new things doesn't get you hurt again like the last time." She said looking concerned. "Well, I am going to go up to my room. Let Steven in when he gets here will ya." I said and with that I made my way up the stairs and into my room. I turned the radio on, and laid down on my bed. I must have fallen asleep, because I awoke to the sound of someone entering my room. I was startled, but when I saw Steven standing there, I felt 100% better. I jumped up out of the bed, and leapt into his arms in an affectionate embrace, one that I had been hoping would come for a long time. When my lips touched his it ignited a passion that had been held in for a very long time. I was so proud of him, and I wanted him to know it. We kissed for what seemed like only seconds, but I was sure it was about 10 minutes. When we finally broke the kiss, we were both a little out of breath. I took a step back kinda sheepishly knowing that me and him had allot to talk about. "So, how was your day?" I said jokingly trying to ease the tension. We both laughed. " What possessed you to do that, you know they are going to kill us at school now." " I know its going to be difficult, but we'll have each other to make it through together." He said smiling seemingly not having a care in the world. "Besides, you told me to prove that I loved you, I think this might have proved it." "I'll say, I just hope we are strong enough to make it through this, its definately going to be tough. What did your parents think?" I asked moving to sit on the bed. Steven took a seat right next to me and gently placed his hand on my thigh rubbing back and forth gently. "They didn't take it too well. I stopped by there on my way here, and they want me to move out tonight, thats something else I wanted to ask you, can I move in here, just until I can find something more permanent?" He asked, I could hardly contain my mind from wondering thinking of what it would be like to have him in my house with me at all times. "I'll have to ask my mom, but I don't think it would be too much of a problem, I think she understands what you are going through, and she will probably be more than happy to help. Let me go ask her, you wait here." I said making my way towards the door. His hand grabbed my arm, and he pulled me back down on the bed, and our lips locked into a very passionate embrace, our tongues were entertwined with each other and our hands began wondering, I knew I had to break the kiss or I would never make it downstairs to ask my mom, so I rolled off the top of him and got off the bed. "There will be plenty of time for that later, lets get other things situated before we do any of that." I said with a little bit of a seductive tone in my voice. I made my way out of the room and downstairs to ask my mom. It didn't take me long to get the answer that I wanted, and I was soon back in my room where Steven was waiting. "So?" He asked literally on the edge of his seat. "She said that would be fine, but you would have to sleep in the guest room. But at least we will be together." I said excitedly. "Great" He said jumping up "I've got to go to my house and pick up some things, but I will be right back, so don't you go falling asleep on me again. Even though I know you will, so I will wake you up when I get back okay." He said leaning in for a goodbye kiss. The first of many we would have living in the same house with each other. After the kiss, he ran out of the house, and got in his car obviously in a hurry to get to his house, get his things, and get back over here. After he left, I laid back on the bed and began thinking about how fast things were moving here recently. I drifted off to sleep like always, only this time I had a smile on my face. I was awakened by the phone ringing. I looked at the clock, it said 5:23, I had been asleep for almost 6 hours, I wondered why Steven hadn't woke me up when he got back. I reached over and answered the phone. "Hello?" I said into the receiver "Jacob?" The unfamiliar female voice asked "Yeah, who is this?" I asked cautiously. "This is Julie.....um Steven's sister, look noone knows I'm calling you, but I figured you should know." She said obviously trying to hide her voice so noone would hear her. "Know what?" I asked getting a little worried. "You need to come down to the hospital. Theres been an accident." This is the end of Chapter 4. I am sorry that it took so long to release this chapter, but I just wanted it to be good, and I am still not sure if this is the direction I wanted to go with this story, but there isn't much I can do about it now. I hope you enjoyed this chapter, and I will try to get the next chapter out shortly. As always your comments are appreciated at GABigflamer22 @aol.com
