For those that have written me I have explained that I am legally blind and story is fictious not based on anything that I may have done. This part might be not as long as some of the others, also hopefully I will be able to get out a chapter weekly. Mike and his dad where having breakfast discussing the trip that they along with Mike's boyfriend Mark had been on during the winter break. All of a sudden Marty asked Mike,"Does Mark have the money to cover what he needs to go to the Prom"? I am not really sure dad came from Mike. Well lets make sure he has enough in his checking account to be on the safe side, and that way he can get new briefs, a tux along with order what he wants to eat at the Spring Fling. Mark came into the kitchen after finding Mike missing from the bed they have shared since football practice started. Oh there you are buddy, and morning's Marty. Still not totally awake like the others as he started to pour a mug of coffee to get him jump started in the morning. While he was having his coffee and some toast, Marty asked," Mark do you have everything that you need to get ready for the Spring Fling?". Well sir, I am not as well off as you and Mike are, but I already got us a suite and limo to take us there, and hopefully my dark suit will also work since I can not afford anything real expensive. Mike turned to Mark and told him that they where going to do some shopping at the Old Town Mall to get him some Calvin Klein underwear as well order your tux or maybe buy one so that you do not have to always rent one. Mark told Mike," Thanks for the offer but I can not spend all of your or your dads money, but I better get a job so I can save to rent one instead". I have a question for you Mark," Are we not lovers and boyfriends who have promised to stand side by side with our partner. With his head hung Mark simply nodded yes, but inside he felt like he was taking Mike and Marty's money for stuff his own folks had given up on him should have provided. Pushing away from the table real fast Mark ran into the bedroom where he started to cry like he did when he was a little kid. Could it be really true that Mike was in-love with him and that Marty considered him as a son. All these thoughts went through his mind while he laid on the bed. Mike came up to the room to let Mark know that Marty was going to be taking them to the Mall in an hour to do some shopping. Next part is how Mike describes what happened next.
