We walked into his study and sat down. He sighed before telling that he and Michael had decided to try dating to see if there was still a fire there. I was thrilled and we decided to put our own relationship on hold, while he explored this new part of his life. The mere chance for him to be happy for the first time since Mom's death made me excited and I hoped it would work out. DARYL'S ENLIGHTENMENT: CHAPTER FIFTEEN (15) DARYL Dad and I started going on with our lives in a much different way than we had recently. He was dating Michael and occasionally spending the evening with him while I focused my attention on Kirk. It actually made our father-son bond even stronger since we were now in good solid relationships with people close to our own ages. Seeing him so happy and relaxed made the entire family feel better and more at ease. Mike said that his dad was drinking les and even being more of a father than he had been since his mom left. Mike and Steve were spending a lot more time together and even talking about which college they wanted to attend. Life was getting better for everyone and it seemed that it was going to continue in that direction. UNKNOWN MALE So I see that Michael has himself a new flame or should I say an old one. He's dating the same guy he dumped me for back in high school. It's not like we ever really went out but we were in the scouts and on the track team for years. Maybe Michael never noticed me because I was so shy but I gave him enough clues. How can one person be so dense? I left him notes and gifs so he had to know it was me. Even when I got tongue-tied around him, he still talked to me like a friend would He needs to realize that I'm the one he was supposed to choose to love. I'll make him understand how we are destined to be together. DARYL I was having a wonderful time being with Kirk as we went to school. One day we got off the bus at our stop with John to work on a project for our Social Studies class, when I noticed a strange vehicle parked in front of my house. As soon as we came closer, it drove off so I figured it was someone looking for a specific address or checking their directions. Stopping to grab the mail, the three of us entered the house to the wonderful smells of fresh-naked chocolate-chip cookies. Gran gave us each some milk and a plate of her treats before we headed to the play room to begin our homework. We worked for a couple of hours until my dad came home. John and Kirk headed to their houses while my family sat down to eat. Dad was going through the mail and saw an envelope with his name but no other information on it. He asked which one of us brought it inside and I said me. Dad said we'd talk after dinner in his study. The rest of the meal was enjoyable but I wondered what I had done wrong. As we finished, it was my night to help with the clean-up but Dad asked Gran if I could be excused to talk with him. She agreed and we went into his study. Once the door was closed, he asked about finding the mail. I told him about the parked truck and my thoughts on why it was there. Picking up the mail was usually done by whichever of us got home first that day. He inquired about the driver but we were too far away to see him clearly other than the fact his hair was dark. I described the truck but couldn't understand why any of this was important. Later, all these little things eventually made perfect sense. He asked a few more questions but I was not able to provide much more information. As I was leaving, the phone rang and I heard Dad say hello to Michael. RANDOLPH I didn't understand what the plain envelope was. There was nothing other than my name on it and it was sealed with clear tape. Just before I was going to open it, Michael called and asked about a letter. When I mentioned the one I received, he said to call the police. His son had come home to find their dog writhing on the floor after ripping into the one that came through their mail slot. Mike rushed the animal to the vet and found it had been poisoned by an unknown substance. The dog might recover but it was going to be minute by minute. He told me to call after I was finished, said a quick "love you," and hung up the phone. I carefully put down the envelope and dialed the police. Explaining the reason for my request, the dispatcher confirmed the other incident and sent two offices and a special collection team to my house. About ten minutes later, a police cruiser and evidence van were in my driveway. I met them at the door and showed them where the envelope was. While the collection team examined my den, the officers took my statement and that of my son before the techs removed the envelope. All they could say was it didn't appear to be radioactive but, since it wasn't opened, we were probably okay. After reassuring us that there would be extra patrols until the results came back, the officers left to file the report. My family was very nervous but all I could do was promise that I would protect them from anything that came along. Everyone went back to their activities as I headed for my bedroom. Getting out of my uncomfortable work suit, I slipped on a loose pair of sweat shorts and crawled in bed. Picking up my phone, I dialed Michael's number and he answered almost immediately. It felt so safe just hearing his voice as we started going over what had transpired. We hypothesized about who might have done this horrible prank. Neither of us could think of anyone that was so hateful and why we were targeted. After a few more minutes, we made plans for our first private week-end together, which would give us a chance to reconnect without prying eyes of family and friends. A couple of quick kisses and words of love were said before we ended the call to get some much needed sleep. MIKE Kirk and Daryl coming out at school was bittersweet for me since I felt that it was something I couldn't do if I waned to continue with my football career in the future. Steve and I had made the decision to be exclusive with each other but I know he wanted to be able to be more demonstrative in public. Some of the drawings that he made of me, especially the nudes, were posed to avoid showing my face. This was important to Steve, even though the classes he was taking were with a private instructor. After we entered high school, I decided to gauge the social climate and was surprised when Kirk and Daryl received so little trouble for their being open. In the locker room, I found some of the other players were amazingly accepting, given that some had family members who were homosexual. Many even said that a gay teammate would not be a problem. I decided to wait until the season was over to make a decision but promised Steve that it was coming soon. The night after my father decided to try rekindling his affair with Daryl's father, I invited Steve to sleep over since we had to work on a project for history class. He arrived just after dinner and we headed to my room, where we did work on the homework for an hour or so. Just knowing he was there and being so close to him made it difficult to concentrate. Finally, I leaned over his shoulder and gave him a deep, passionate kiss while groping his ample crotch. He moaned into my mouth and spun the chair to face me as he wrapped his arms around me. Rising from a seated position, we moved to my bed and fell next to each, never breaking our contact. I loved holding him and feeling him hold me so this was one of my favorite times, even if we didn't have actual sex. Rolling on my back, Steve slid his hands up to remove my shirt and tweaking my nipples. I returned the favor while pondering how I was so lucky to have such a gorgeous boyfriend. His chest was sculpted from his years of swimming and track made his ass and legs look sexy. Just as we were reaching for the pants, my father knocked on my door. "Can I come in for a minute?" he asked. "Sure," I replied, stopping my lover from moving. "It's open." He blushed as he entered and saw us laying half-naked on top of each other. Clearing his throat, he said that he was taking the rest of my siblings for ice cream and wanted to know if we wanted to come. Saving we had other plans, I asked if he could bring back some banana and pistachio ice cream for us to share later. Laughing, he patted both of us on the head and closed the door as he left. Steve finally let go of the breath he was holding. We looked at each other before bursting uncontrollable giggling. Hearing the front door close and the car pullout, we returned to the task at hand. Our pants and underwear came of in one swift move leaving us in only our stocking feet. The feel of our naked skin rubbing against each other was hotter than anything I had ever encountered before Steve. It was so intimate and personal, revealing a level of trust that only two people in love could share. I intended to make this night of love special until we heard the explosion and sounds of breaking glass. My room was in the rear of the house so my window just rattled loudly as the sound waves passed over the roof. Grabbing our slacks and shirts, we headed down the stairs cautiously, not sure of what we expected to find. It looked like a scene from a war movie. Every pane of glass in the front windows was blown inward and I could see the mailbox was burning. Running up to get our shoes, Steve called 911 as I slowly opened the main door to survey the damage. Whatever had been blown up was powerful enough to launch several pieces of brick from our mailbox onto the roof and even through the garage door. I went back in as Steve was finishing with the police dispatcher. Calling the ice cream parlor where I knew my dad was, I asked them to speak to him as it was an emergency. I informed him quickly what had happened and he said he would be right home. He pulled up just after the police and fire departments arrived. Steve and I were talking with a detective on the curb about what we had heard and found when Dad came up to us. Hugging us both, he made certain we weren't hurt before turning to the policeman. After checking on his whereabouts, the officer asked if we had noticed anything unusual lately. Dad brought up the poisoning of our dog and the related threatening letters that his friend Randolph had received. They both had the same language and tone so we felt they were related. Firemen quickly extinguished the flames and checked out the house before telling us that a boarding company would be there soon to cover the broken windows until they were repaired. We were advised to stay at a hotel until the investigation was completed. We went inside and packed our suitcases before heading to a local motel. Police assured us that both the house and our lodgings would be guarded for several days. I asked Dad if I could stay with Steve at his house and he said sure but to be careful and observant. He dropped us off and headed with police to the hotel. One squad car stayed outside to watch over me as promised. Steve's father was angry to hear what had occurred and told me I could stay as long as needed. He asked if that was the reason for the law enforcement outside and I said yes, which seemed to comfort him. Steve and I were tired and headed up to crawl in bed since we had school in the morning. I know that I woke up screaming a time or two but was relieved to find myself next to my lover. At that moment, my decision about coming out was made and I intended to do it the very next day. UNKNOWN MALE I was so angry that Mike's father missed my little surprise. His car, filled with all his brats, pulled out about 2 minutes before the timer ended. There was nothing I could do to stop it without endangering my own safety. I was shocked to see his son Mike and his boyfriend Steve come to investigate the event. When Michael did return, he looked pissed that his family could have been hurt. I decided to leave as there were more police showing up and I wanted to avoid being questioned. Maybe he would finally get the message since I left a note tacked to the front door. He would be mine sooner than even I had hoped or his precious children and lost-love would pay dearly. RANDOLPH We could hear the echoes in our home and ran outside to see what we could. I heard the sirens but they were several blocks away. Heading back inside, we returned to our routine until the doorbell rang. Daryl was closest and found two policemen standing on the porch. They asked to speak to me privately in my den. Escorting them to the room, I took a seat and so did they. They explained what had happened at Mike's house and indicated that they were curious about the letters I had received. Giving them the case number, I asked if anyone had been hurt, all the time holding back tears and panic. They assured me that everyone was fine and was under additional police protection. I was told we would also find a squad car in front until the investigation had been completed. Thanking them for all their hard work, I lead them back outside and turned to see my entire family staring at me with questioning eyes. Ushering everyone into the living room, I related what had happened and the police presence at our home. They asked some things I could answer until emotion overtook me and I broke down crying. Daryl came over and led me upstairs to my room. Once there, he let me cry until the phone rang. It turned out to be Michael saying he was at a local hotel until the house could be repaired. Asking if I could visit, he said he would clear it with the officers. I felt so much better after talking to him and learning that nobody got hurt. We talked until neither of us could really talk without yawning. A quick good night and I fell into an uneasy sleep. Who could have done this and why? Was my family next? Mi mind took forever to finally let me grab a couple of hours of rest. TO BE CONTINUED...
