Date: Fri, 13 Aug 2004 07:34:17 -0700 (PDT) From: Fup Duck Subject: Under Pressure 6 See the first installment for the typical disclaimer stuff. If you don't know it by now, well....:- ) Anyway, THANKS to those who are leaving feedback. To answer some comments made about previous postings: David is in 6th grade - yes, at 11 (almost 12), he actually entered 1st grade at 5 (almost 6) due to his date of birth. A comment or two was made about his ability to have an orgasm at that age. It's a fact, both David and John were able to 'produce' at their ages - not much (as you can tell by the story), but both boys could 'slime' (to use their term - lol). With those comments addressed, here is Chapter 6.... Fup ****************************************************************************** FROM CHAPTER 5 David curled up to go to sleep, then thought, "What? Scott? John's little brother does that to him?" He turned over to ask John about it, but the deep breathing coming from the other bag made him realize that question couldn't be answered until later. UNDER PRESSURE 6 - A New Dawn David's dreams that night were full of blurry images and incomplete thoughts. Tossing and turning he spent a restless night curled into his sleeping bag. The banging of metal spoon against metal pot jolted him out of the land of dreams. Amidst the moans and groans of his fellow Scouts - adding a few of his own - he blearily sat up to the smell of eggs and bacon wafting through the cabin. As he sat there, collecting his thoughts, John punched his arm and said, "Man, I need to find a tree." John slipped out of his sleeping bag in his briefs and used the foot of the bunk as a ladder to climb onto the floor. When his crotch was level with the lower bunk, the boy below yelled, "Get that thing out of my face!" The grumpy comment received a laugh from the occupants of the cabin, and John shook his hips a little - showing off his morning stiffy, grinned and headed out the door to find an open tree. Meanwhile, still in his bunk, David was trying to urge his own pisshard to deflate before he had to go through the same scene. However, as he looked around the cabin, he noticed that most of the other boys were in the same state, so he just shrugged and went to perform his morning ablutions as well. Something was different this morning though in his mind. It was like a piece of a puzzle had fit into place, but he really didn't want to think about it at the moment. There was breakfast to be devoured, activities to do, and fun to be had. After washing up from breakfast - he didn't have the experience yet to pack paper plates instead of a mess kit, which had to be washed - he, John and a few other boys went on an exploratory trip around the camp, with orders from the Scoutmaster to be back in about an hour and not to get into the lake without supervision. The morning fog was rising off the lake as they walked across the earthen dam, giving an eerie feeling to their walk. One of the other boys began to hum the Twilight Zone theme in the fog, which brought giggles from the rest of the group. They were able to continue their walk across the dam until they were met with the spillway cut through the embankment. "Oh crap, now what?" one of the crew asked. "Well we either turn back, or find a way across," said Robbie, a 14-year-old First Class Scout and Patrol Leader, as he made his way down the slope of the embankment. When he reached the bottom, he took off his shoes and socks and waded across the few inches of water running across the flat concrete spillway. "It's a little slimy, but it's cool." When he reached the other side, the other 4 boys made their way down and started to follow Robbie's example. About three-quarters of the way across, John and another young Scout lost their footing on the algae and ended up on their butts in the water. David started to giggle, soon joined by the rest of the guys, at the looks on the two boys' faces. "Hey, how 'bout some help?" whined John. When the other boys reached them, still snickering, John and the other kid grabbed ahold of their would-be rescuers and pulled them down into the water. Soon, all five boys were soaking wet, and laughing their tails off. They were brought out of their unplanned water activity by the sound of the Scoutmaster's whistle, calling the boys back to the cabin for the first event of the day. Sobering up a little, they pulled themselves out of the water, and started the trek back to the cabin. When they arrived, still wet, the Scoutmaster went into a tirade. "You were supposed to stay out of the lake! Look at you! What the heck was in your heads when you decided to not listen to what I said? Get your butts inside and change, the rest of us will wait." Properly chastised more by the looks of the other boys than the leader's yelling, they went inside to change. As they were stripping, David looked at his cohorts in crime. Trying to keep it casual and unnoticeable, his attention was drawn to their bodies as more and more was exposed. Robbie was definitely the most interesting to David. At 14, he had a patch of hair at the base of his cold-shriveled dick. Noticing David's curiosity, he smiled and joked, "Cold water does it all the time," and continued pulling up his briefs. Embarrassed at being caught by the older boy, David focused on changing into dry clothes. As they were leaving to rejoin the rest of the troop, John whispered, "He's got a nice one." David just blushed and stayed quiet. The morning 'nature hike' lasted until lunchtime. David found it some of it interesting, but mainly boring. How many 11-year-olds really want to know how old a tree is instead of how easy is it to climb? The walk in the outside air led to ravenous appetites, and the cold cut sandwiches were soon history. The rest of the afternoon passed uneventfully, football and merit badge work filled in the time until supper. After supper, David, John, and the other three boys involved in the 'water accident' that morning were assigned the clean-up of the supper dishes. After cleaning up, the boys had about an hour of free time until the evening activity. Soon the bunks were being pulled and rearranged in the cabin so there was a large squared-off area in the center of the floor. Mattresses from unused bunks were spread on the floor and upended against the bunks adjacent to this area. The Scoutmaster and one of the assistants then retrieved two pairs of boxing gloves from their packs and started assigning the boys' sparring partners. ***AUTHOR'S NOTE*** This boxing activity is completely legit. Of course there was no padding and the rule of 'no punches above the shoulders or below the waist' was strictly enforced. The early 70's were a simpler and happier time for the Scouting program. In this day and age of "drop of a dime" lawsuits, no one would even consider doing half the activities we experienced in those years. ***BACK TO THE STORY - ALREADY IN PROGRESS*** To say David was surprised would be an understatement. BOXING? Beating on each other - and getting BEATEN? The only person he had ever hit was his sister - and she really wasn't a person anyway. He wasn't sure of this whole thing. The Scoutmaster was going over the rules: 1. No hits above the shoulders or below the waist, 2. The bouts would last two minutes, or until one boy managed to tag the other three times on the torso, 3. Any rule-breaking would be punished by that boy not being allowed to go on the next camping trip. Everyone else seemed up for the torture, and David decided he wouldn't be a spoil sport. Maybe he could stay away from his opponent enough to take up the time limit. The thought of 'taking a dive' never crossed his mind....it wouldn't be, well, 'manly." The bouts started with the older boys facing off. David and the other boys watched as some blows were traded, but most of the matches seemed to run out of time before any injury took place. "This might not be so bad," thought David. Soon it was his turn. His opponent was a kid that no one really seemed to like and was a bit taller and heavier than David. After donning the gloves, and tapping them together in the center of the 'ring', the boys faced off. David was able to block most of his fellow 11- year-old's punches and got in a few of his own, which seemed to anger the other boy. Not heard over the yells of the spectators, the other boy said, "I'm going to whip your queer ass." David was stunned. What? Did he know about John and him messing around last night? While David's guard was down, the boy threw a solid punch to David's mid-section, almost putting him down on the mat. Back in reality, David looked up and saw the nasty grin on the other boy's face. David didn't know what snapped in his head, but snap it did. Charging the other boy, whose grinning face had turned into one of fear, David started throwing punches at the other boy. The boy only had a chance to block and one of David's swings glanced off his arm and ended up connecting with his nose. The boys outside the 'arena' went silent as the blood started to flow from the boy's nose. David's horror was complete when the other boy started to cry. He threw off the gloves and charged out of the cabin, tears starting to leak from his eyes. A few minutes later, one of the Assistant Scoutmasters, Mr. Rawley, found him sobbing on the steps outside the cabin. Sitting down beside David, he draped his arm over his shoulders and gently squeezed. Losing all semblance of dignity, David buried his face into the man's shirt and bawled. "I'm s-s-so s-s-sorry," David whimpered. The man tightened his grip a bit, pulling David's face closer to his chest so the 'interested parties' gazing through the windows of the cabin couldn't really tell how bad the boy was crying. As David's tears dwindled, Mr. Rawley slowly released his hold on David, but still kept his arm across his shoulders. "It's ok, Dave, it's ok. Everyone knows you didn't mean it, it was an accident, and accidents happen." "He called me a queer," whispered David, "and it made me mad." "Kids call each other that all the time, Dave. He thought he could get your attention that way and win." Then he chuckled. "I guess you ruined his plan." David started to grin as well, despite his sore gut and bad feelings. "Yeah, I guess I did," he said. "Well," Mr. Rawley said, "we'd better get back inside. Everyone's a little worried about you." Getting up, the man reached his hand down to David who grabbed it and pulled himself to his feet. With his back to the windows, the Mr. Rawley grinned again, "You pack one heck of a right, remind me not to make you mad, ok?" Then putting his arm back across David's shoulders, they entered the subdued cabin. When the door opened, all conversation stopped, and all eyes were on David. Mr. Rawley squeezed David's shoulder and whispered, "Go get 'em, sport." Then he removed his arm and walked over to where the Scoutmaster was treating the other boy. David looked around the cabin. Some of the faces he saw were blank, but some had ill- concealed grins plastered on them. David felt bad about what had happened, but he also felt a slight sense of pride at what he had done. He had defended himself, and showed that he could take care of himself if the need ever arose again. John walked over to him, and took his wrist, raised it into the air and yelled, "THE CHAMPEEN!" The room erupted in laughs and "Way to go's" until the leaders quieted them with a few harsh words. David walked over to where the boy was laying with an ice pack on his nose and held out his hand. "Sorry, no hard feelings?" The boy looked at him a few seconds, then smiled and took his hand. "Nope, it's cool. I want a rematch." "No way! Once was enough for me," smiled David. "Yeah, me too." Satisfied he hadn't made an enemy, David wandered back to his bunk. Some of the boys crowded around excited about the event, but all David wanted to do was forget about it. He half-heartedly joked with the other kids until it was bedtime. The previous evening's activities had been pushed from his mind by the 'excitement' of the evening, all he wanted to do was sleep. ****************************************************************************** Well another chapter down the tubes. Apologies in advance for those who thought there would be some 'action' between David and Mr. Rawley. David does have a 'fling' with an older male however - that's to come in a later chapter, and it had quite the impact. The incident with Mr. Rawley DID have an impact of David's life - he just didn't realize it at the time. Please feel free to contact me with any questions or feedback.
