I'm still out of town but found some time to write for you guys. Thanks for all the support. Enjoy and comment Love, Joey Joey's Tale Chapter 4 "Oh My GOD! He's here!" Sarah shouted from downstairs. Mary was fussing over my hair for the hundredth time that day. "Ugh I'll just have to leave it like that, but you look gorgeous honey so get that lost puppy look out of your face and go get your man" She said smiling. I could see she was holding back a tear of joy for seeing me so happy and excited about something. I hugged her one last time and walked down the stairs. As I got to the bottom I felt a quick light flash and saw Sarah taking a picture of me. "I'm sorry I just couldn't hold myself, you look so cute!" She said giggling. I actually loved the way I looked. I wore my favorite dark jeans that are loose from the knees down but get tighter as they approach my butt. I picked a black polo shirt that made my hair look almost red as it did sometimes. I thought my heart was going to fall out of my chest because it was beating so hard when I heard the doorbell. I opened up and had to stop myself from dropping my jaw at one of the most beautiful sights I have ever witnessed. There was Dylan, with his super sexy dark brown hair spiked up, and his beautiful grey eyes that looked blue as they clashed against the dark tight button down shirt he had on. It was a casual short sleeved shirt that showed off his arms in a way that made me tighter in my pants. He wore a pair of khaki shorts and to my surprise I saw he had flip flops on! Now I've never had a foot fetish or anything but I must admit, he had a pair of the most perfect feet I have ever seen. He looked perfect, his strong manly features without a blemish on them were just angelical and I could've spent hours just standing there, lusting after this gorgeous man. "You look great Joey, are you ready to go?" he said in that deep sexy voice I loved. "Thank you so do you, and I really do mean you look great." I blushed at my little display but I couldn't help myself, he was just so cute. "Have him back early, ok? And take care!" Mary said from the top of the stairs. I knew she was protective but I didn't want her to scare off my date so I hurriedly said goodbye to both of them and closed the door behind me. We approached a very sexy black convertible that looked brand new, and he opened the door for me as I got in. On our way to the dock the conversation was not at all forced or awkward. He was such a gentleman, always paying attention to me and making sure I was comfortable. As we got to the dock he bought us tickets for the ferry boats and would not let me pay for mine. As we waited he told me he had a younger brother and sister, they were 6 year old twins, and he loved spending time with them. I could just listen to him talk for hours and stand in awe of how great of a person he was. When the ferry arrived we got on and took our seats with a great view of the sea. We must've talked for hours because we saw the sun going down. Somewhere in between I hadn't even noticed and he had taken hold of my hand. When I realized what was happening I panicked and pulled it away. He tried not to look disappointed but I could see the hurt look on his face. Why was I so stupid? Here I am on the most romantic date I have ever been on with the most perfect guy and I panic when he innocently holds my hand? I was so pissed at myself as we got off the ferry. He was really quiet as we walked to the car and I was panicking that I would miss my chance of having something with this gorgeous guy, so I just went for it. "Thanks for this awesome date Dylan, it really was perfect" I said as I locked my arm with his. A huge smile crept up his face as he tightened the grip on his arm. "Thank you Joey. For a moment there I thought you hadn't realized this was actually a date, and I freaked thinking you did not like me the way I like you. And I mean I really LIKE you Joey." He said looking into my eyes with those beautiful eyes of his. "I like you too Dylan" I said with a smile. Just then, with the sun setting over the sea and painting it with those beautiful red and orange colors, standing in the wooden dock with my eyes locked with his, he reached his head towards mine. I closed my eyes and let myself feel those loving lips as they touched mine, gently at first. He let them linger over me and I placed my hands on his back, rubbing the strong muscles up and down. He put his left hand on my lower back and he played with my long hair with his right. We broke our kiss and just stared into each other's eyes with that silly smile of puppy love on our faces. We walked hand in hand to his car and started to drive off towards Chris' house. I will forever remember how incredible first date was. I really felt warm inside at that moment as I held hands with such a beautiful boy as this. On our way to Chris' place we talked about how we knew we were gay and if our families knew. Turns we were both out to our families, so that was a relief, not having to deal with that kind of pressure. All the while I had his right hand in mine and kept analyzing it. He had such big many hands that were quite bigger than mine. I loved the way his soft skin felt against mine. I smiled as he closed his fingers gently over mine. As we got there, he opened the door for me and held my hand as we knocked on the door. I was kind of nervous as Chris opened the door, because I did not know how he was going to react to us being openly gay. He looked at us surprised at first but then just smiled and greeted us with a hug. "About time you asked him out" he said punching Dylan playfully on the shoulder. "Shut up Chris" He said blushing slightly, he looked so adorable. We followed Chris to the backyard where he and Lacey were grilling some burgers for all of us. Sarah and Alex were already there and looked our way as we entered. Alex was laughing at something before we entered, but his smile dropped immediately as he looked over and saw us holding hands. We made eye contact for just a second and I could see he was hurting. But as quick as it came the moment passed as Sarah rushed over and hugged us. We all talked cheerfully and ate some delicious burgers. Suddenly Chris tapped his knife to his plastic cup and stood up to make a toast. "I want to propose a toast, to great friends who will always be there for each other, to promising beginnings of cheering careers, relationships and high school life, and to better things to come" We all cheered after him and took a drink from our cups. After that we decided to play truth or dare. Sarah challenged me to kiss someone on the lips in front of the whole group, I was totally shocked and blushed furiously, but Dylan just grabbed me by the face and brought it close to his. All of them cheered for us. Then I asked Lacey to share one of her most embarrassing stories with us. She told us how, on the first time she met Chris' parents and they took her out to dinner, she got an allergic reaction and her whole face bloated up big and red. We all laughed at her story and kept on playing for a long time. Alex was the first one to leave and hugged us all good bye, actually there weren't any awkward moments after we started talking, and he seemed comfortable enough now, so I guess he must have gotten over whatever was troubling him. When he hugged me, he did it really tight and just a wee bit longer than everyone else but nothing major. We said our goodbyes as well and headed home. Dylan parked his car outside my door and we just kept on talking for a bit until I saw the living room lights went on, that means Mary is waiting for me inside. So I said I had to go and gave him a quick peck on the lips just before I turned and started to leave the car. He grabbed my hand and pulled me back, and gave me a strong kiss that left me gagging for air. He brushed my lips with his tongue and I opened them to let him through. His tongue played around the confinements of my mouth lovingly and sensually. It was the most awesome feeling I have ever felt in my life. He broke our kiss and stared into my eyes with that beautifully intense stare of his. He gave me a peck on the nose and got out of the car to open the door for me. I waved him goodbye as I entered my house and headed for my room. Mary stopped me midway. "So, are you planning on telling me how your date went or will I have to hurt you to get it?" she said playfully. "Mmm I don't know Mary, I'm pretty tired" I teased her as I jokingly faked a yawn. She jumped at me and started tickling me furiously. We rolled on the floor laughing and went to her room. We got into our pajamas and stayed up just talking. I really loved my sister and how much she cared about me. As I went to my room to finally get some sleep I noticed my cell phone had been beeping with a new message. "Thank you for today baby, I had a lot of fun" from Dylan. "No, Thank you for the best day ever. I'll talk to you soon, kisses" I sent and drifted off to sleep with a huge smile on my face ------- So I hoped you all enjoyed it and are excited about what is to come in the lives of Joey and his friends. I thank you for your support and I'm sorry if this chapter was a bit short, but I'm actually been having some personal trouble and have found it somewhat hard to feel inspired about love. Anyway I hope it didn't translate into the story, because this is a very important moment in my life that I like to remember whenever I'm having such a horrible time like I've been having lately. Thanks for the comments and keep them coming =) Love, Joey
