Monday, I woke to the sound of my alarm clock.

I got up out of bed & grabbed some clothes for the day & headed to the
bathroom. I shut the door & turned the water to the shower on. I got out of
my t-shirt & boxers & waited for the water to dry up. As I waited I looked
at myself in the mirror. I wondered if I had changed over the last month &
a half. Both physically & emotionally.

I realized that my body had become a little more tan, probably from being
outside in the sun with Jamie a lot more. I had a swimmer's body, probably
from all the exercise trying to impress Jamie. I had a haircut yesterday. A
real haircut. I had sort of let my hair grow to about the bottom of my ears
for the last 4 years. But I had it cut the other day, Sunday. It was
short. I could gel it like I use to, but it looked so new to me, even
though it was short like this when I was little. My dark blue eyes looked
cold. It was going to be an interesting day.

I had to think about all the things happening in the last month.
Boyfriend, loss of a friend, A+ in math, & respect for a lot of people. I
don't know why for the last one, but someone noticed it & told me.

When Ben dropped me off, I went to my friends, him to his. I met up with
Todd, Michelle, Gabe & of course, Jamie. Everything went as normal, until
history.

"Class, this is Jay Darly. He's from New York & this is his first class
here at Miami Beach High School, so make some room for him, alright?" said
Mr. Sandz.

I took a look at Jay. He was average looking, but I knew s would like him
soon. Short curly brown hair, brown eye, couple freckles, a little short,
but a good looking kid all-around.

Two periods later, I found Jay & asked if he wanted to sit at my table. He
agreed & we hit it off super fast. I introduced him to everyone at the
table & they all seemed to like the guy. He reminded me of Greg, his
personality. The rest of the day went by normally, except that when I asked
Jamie if he wanted to come over, he said he couldn't because he had to
babysit the kids down the street.  Then, Jay came over after Jamie left &
asked if I wanted to go to his house. I was surprised that he was already
asking people if they wanted to come over, but I agreed.

I went on his bus & it took awhile until his stop. We got off & went
inside. It looked almost all set up for a family that had just moved here.

"Hey, wanna go upstairs to my room?" he asked.

"Sure."

As I went into his room, I noticed a lot of posters of bands from the old
days. The only way I knew some of them were from the music my folks
listened to. There were some oldies songs I actually liked, secretly of
course.

"I don't know all these people, but I do know some. Have you met all these
people?" I asked.

"You betcha."

"That's pretty cool. Would they recognize you if someone mentioned your
name to them?" I don't know why I asked this, expecting the answer to be
"no".

"Some, but not all. Like I'm sure that if someone mentioned 'Jay Darly' to
Stevie Wonder, then I'm sure he'd be like 'Oh yeah!'" said Jay.

"Ha! That's cool."

"Yup."

I don't know why, but I was very interested in his room. Nothing special
about it, just a regular teen boy's room. So then why was it catching my
eye? I would never know.

"Ok. Hey let me ask you something. Are you in a relationship?" Jay asked.

That totally surprised me.

"Why?" I said, carefully avoiding the question.

"Well I um...kinda have a crush on your friend Michelle & I was wondering
if you knew how to get her to like me."

I was laughing on the inside. Nobody had like Michelle since like 1st
grade, when Todd did, but after 5th grade, he didn't like her anymore. I
knew Michelle pretty good. I wasn't her best friend, but I was sure there
was something I could do.

"Uh, yeah, I mean I can try to find out for you, but it'll take some
time. If i go to her soon, she'll probably know automatically" I said.

"That makes sense."

"So, what do you want to do?" he asked.

"I don't know, what ever is fun I guess."

"Well, I wouldn't wanna do something that's boring."

We took a little a walk on a trail that led to Adle Street, which leads
right to the beach. We had on swimsuits, me with an extra pair of his
on. We went to the beach & mostly just swam around in the water. It was
nice, even though the water freezing.

When we got back after 2 straight hours in the ocean, we showered & got all
the salt off. Then we played video games for awhile, followed by some
t.v. I was beat by the time I said I should get home.  We had barely talked
the whole time, but yet we knew so much about each other already.

When I got home, I said hi to Ben & went up to my room. I listened to some
music & chatted on AIM, eventually leading up to me doing my homework. When
I was done, I checked it over & put it away, glad that it was all done.

I watched t.v. while we ate dinner. Two & a Half Men was funny.  I went
back to AIM, music & had a couple of wank sessions while talking to Jamie,
due to some dirty things he was saying.

When I cleaned myself up, I got a loose t-shirt & a pair of boxers & went
into the bathroom to take a shower. I went to bed about an hour later.

The next day, I woke up & was greeted with the Miami sun through the
window, & an awful pain right in my head & a sore throat. I sat up & put my
hands to my forehead, wincing a little & making painful noises, which were
apparently heard by dad.

"Tan, what's a'matter?"

"My head hurts so much right now. Ahh..." I said.

"Well let's see then." He came over & felt my head. His hand was freezing
to my forehead, which felt nice. But if it felt cold, then that meant...

"You got a fever kiddo" he said.

I groaned, both in pain & in knowing that I had a Spanish quiz today & the
make-up would be much harder than the real thing. I regretted going in the
water the other day, even though it was fun...

"I'll tell mom, she'll call the school & tell them that you're in bed, ok?"

"Alright. But I have a Spanish quiz today & the make-up is going to be
impossible" I said.

"What do you mean impossible?" he asked me.

"Every re-take that Señorita Tobin gives is always like a million times
harder than the original."

"You saying you want to go to school?" he pointed out.

"No, but I'm just saying that it's going to be so much harder."

"Well then you'll have to study more, won't you?" he said as he left the
room.

I didn't want to study more. I had studied for 2 hours for the past 3
nights. It wasn't fair. Too bad that I couldn't take the original quiz
while still not having to go to school. Then again, why not just change the
wish to 'too bad we can't be educated while not going to school.'

About 10 minutes after my family had left, I realized that I was just not
in the mood to beat off, look at pics, or anything other than just sit
around & watch t.v. I tried to take a nap, but then I hear the doorbell
ring. I was in nothing but boxers, but I didn't care.

I got up from the couch & opened the door.

"Hi Tanner!"

"Jamie?! What are you doing here?!" I was freaking out; I didn't want Jamie
to get in trouble for playing hooky just because I was a little under the
weather.

"Visiting you, Tan" he giggled as he skipped inside. He was hyper.

"Why?"

"'Cause I want to, duh" he said. His hands were shaking; he was sugar high,
again.

"I had no idea."

"Tan, what's wrong? It's like you don't want me to be here" he said,
looking a little hurt.

"It's not that, it's that I don't want you to get in trouble for playing
hooky just to visit me."

He started to laugh. Either I was missing something, or he was high. I was
really hoping for my first option. Then he explained himself being here.

"Dude, I was suppose to have a medical exam today, but Dade Hospital called
& said that my exam would have to be moved to next week because some fire
at a bar was filling up every room they had, even rooms not used by current
patients.

"Anyway, since I wasn't ready for school, my mom let me stay home. So I
decide to visit you, hoping you were still here before you left. Looks like
I did. Wow, you must get ready pretty damn fast if you still look like this
at this time" he splurted out at once. I barely caught anything he had
said.

"That's because I'm not going to school today" I replied.

"How come?"

"I'm sick."

"Oh" he pouted. Then a smile lit up his pretty boy face.

"We could play doctor..." he cooed, as he kissed my neck.

"I want to, but I don't want to give you anything. Plus, I'm way too tired
anyway."

"Ok, but how 'bout I give you some stuff?" he teased.

"Jamie..."

"Ok ok. You wanna take a nap?"

"Yes" I sighed.

Jamie & I headed up to my room. I slipped into my cozy bed & watched Jamie
undress to his bare bottom. I decided I'd take my boxers off, too.

He climbed under the covers with me & gently kissed my neck. I was sick &
falling asleep. Soon I could tell Jamie was also sleepy & he rested his
head on my chest & started to fall asleep. Soon after, I also fell asleep.

What a weird two days, but they were nice.
