The characters in this story are made out of my haed and it's pure coincidence if anyone you know fits the profile of my characters perfectly but I'll also apologize in advance for any inconveinience. This story is gay orientated story so if anything gay offends you I suggest you leave now. And before I start my story just 2 more things. There is no sex in this story even if I suggest it, it won't be hardcore. I find I lose my story plot if I write sex into it. And also just to cover my ass from the law noone under the age of 18 should read this or 21 in some places. But obviously if your under 18 I can't really stop you from reading the story. Thats it from me for now I hope you like it though give me a chance please cause I am new to writing stories for outside of my personal collection and it's hard to write stories about the lives of boys or men from Canada and the United States of America when you are from Australia and never been outside the county. Johnathan and the Trip Around North America My story starts when I was 17 years old in Manhattan in New York City, New York. Yeah I know sucks right? a young man with lots of energy and life about him is locked in a cemented built up stink of a city and nothing to do. "Is he just going to bitch about his life to us the whole story?" well I would have to say no, but occasionaly I complain about being stuck in the city with my parents for all my life. I went to a school just east of Manhatten and I liked it alright. Most kids hate school but I think school is all I have, I was a senior and only had a year and a bit till I graduated after that I was applying for Havard College to study something in law. I have friends of course and I have a bunch of best friends to hang with but still I get lonely. Oh where are my manners? I haven't introduced myself, my names Johnathan Blaket. My mom tells me all the time that I'm handsome but all moms do that, sometimes I thought I was ugly but I'm not really. I mean I could get with a girl easy enough, problem is you see that i'm gay. So I have a hard time with my friends trying to convince them I was into girls but just meet the right one yet. It was a monday morning and I was tired as all hell, I kicked myself for staying up so late the night before, my friends were around and we got caught chatting and bitching about our parents for hours. I finally got to bed at 3 am so you can see why I'm so tired today. I have no brothers or sisters I never really wanted any anyway I don't know why. "John are you still with me?" someone was waving in my face i looked up realising that I stoped walking we were running late for our next class "oh right sorry Tob got lost in thought for a minute there" I reply going a little red. Tob is my best friend his real name is Toby obviously Toby Briant and he's pretty good looking. When we first met I got a major crush on him, we were both in our junior years reaching senior and his eyes just caught my attension straight away. I knew I had to talk to him right then and there. We got on like a house on fire right from the start, who did'nt like Tobs? "What is with you lately? youv'e been really ditant. Has something happened that you not telling me John?" Toby asked sternly "No it's just that I have a few things on my mind dude" "If theres something bugging you you can tell me mate" Toby said sounding a little hurt about his friend leaving him in the dark. Toby I should also explain is from Australia, he moved over to the US almost 6 months ago and has that real fresh Australian accent thats so hot. His dad got them both US citizenships almost straight away, his father worked in the white house so got one fairly easy. I smiled at him "Thanks Tobs but I'm alright" but Toby looked like he thoght I was anything but alright. "look, I know it's tough losing someone close to you and I know it's only been 4 months but just know I'm here for you whenever you need a shoulder to cry on or a listening ear" "I know Tobs and I appreciate it" I replied. You see my mom died almost 4 months ago, she went down in a plane crash noone survived. I still remember when we got that call dad was a wreck and I was very rebellious for a few months only lately iv'e started coming round. But that rebellious stage I don't won't to think about I done some nasty things that I want to forget and move on from. A bell rang all around us, we were all alone in an emty courtyard everyone else had re-entered the building for the start of class. "Oh fuck" I yelled as I relised we were late for class. "We better run" I yelled at Toby as I sprinted off. When we reached class the teacher had already let the students in to take their seats. He did'nt even look up as the door opened. "Detension Johnathan and Toby" he said sounding bored with saying it and kept on working. Jeez he did'nt even want to hear why we were late what an asshole. Then as we took our seats at the back he looked over at us and said "Mr. Blaket and Mr. Briant go to the principals office now" he said with his teeth bared. "Why did'nt you tell us that before we sat down?" I said before I could stop myself. Everyone in the class took a sharp breath in at that even Toby and they all stared at me. Mr. Harrison looked at me his cheeks turning red with anger and his teeth clenched tight. Suddenly he started laughing and I smiled at him nevously. "You've got some nerve kid" he said like we'd been friends all along and kept chuckling, but when he stoped he stared at me. "GO NOW" he screamed and me and Tobs jumped out of our skin and we ran out of the room, as we did so I ran into a guy I had a crush on since junior high and he stared at me and smiled the most gorgeous smile i was affraid he'd see my problem down below because I was on the floor. I quickly got up with his help and when I touched his hand my little problem got bigger I was affraid I'd get caught.
