Chapter 15

“Good morning.” Everyone yawned as they all came to at much the same time the following morning.

“Mmm, how did everyone sleep last night?” Kai asked while stretching.

“Great.” They all answered.

“Good. Let's go get some breakfast and then since we're not allowed to exercise, let's go play in the pool for a bit.” Kai suggested.

“Okay.” They all said, happy with that idea.

They went in and cut up a whole bunch of fruit and got yogurt out for everyone and then they sat down and ate heartily. Once finished, they cleaned up and then headed out to the pool house to have some fun. They stripped and showered off quickly and then headed for the pool, as many pool toys as they could grab were thrown in and they hopped in as well and had some fun. They played lots, they sat back and relaxed in the hot tub, sauna and steam room, but not all of them at the same time, they all seemed to alternate, just whenever they thought it felt right, they went off and did what they wanted. It was a really nice relaxing time. Steven had joined them not even fifteen minutes after the boys had entered, and other than looking in shock that Steven was naked with them as well, Brian said and did nothing.

“Well boys, you should probably hop out and get cleaned dried and diapered, because it's getting late and you all need to have some lunch before you head out. Daniel, I know you wanted to hit the library today as well to do some research, so you need to get ready to go as well.”

“Actually, I realized, I don't have to go to the library, I can just search it online. I'm still not totally used to having a computer to use to look things up.” Daniel smiled.

“Okay, but you still need to get out and cleaned up as well so that you too can eat.”

“I know.” Daniel said as he hopped out with the others.

They all hit the showers and rinsed off quickly and then dried and diapered each other. They then headed in and got themselves some lunch, and then the ones who had to leave, so pretty much everyone except Daniel, went in and got dressed.

“Thanks guys so much for having me last night, it was really good.” Brian said happily.

“You're really welcome. We were glad to have you, we like you, so it'll definitely happen again. Can I ask you a question though, do you like your hockey team?”

“What do you mean, do I like my coach and or the other players on my team?”

“Yeah.”

“Coach is not too bad, but he's a little short tempered at times. The other kids though, well some of them are good, and I'm friends with a couple I guess, but the rest no, I can't stand. They're pretty useless or arrogant.” Brian admitted.

“Wanna join our team?” Kai asked seriously.

“I don't think that's allowed.”

“Why not, think of it as a trade, but your team won't be getting anyone in exchange. Our coach is still looking for another player, and I think you'd fit in real well. I doubt you'd be allowed to come to our team though and finish in the playoffs, and you can finish up the season with your team, but as soon as it ends, why not join our team. I can guarantee that you'd like our team a lot better.” Kai smiled.

“Can I think about it?”

“Of course you can. We don't want or need an answer now, you still have at least a week left in hockey, even if you're not yet allowed to play, and it looks like we're heading to the semi finals now, and maybe to the finals.”

“Thanks, but I think we're heading to the semi finals now as well, so after this week, hopefully I can play again and help to win at least a few games. We won't make it to the final round though, there's no way, we're not good enough for that.”

“You never know. If the others on your team can act as a team, then you have a shot at it. Well, I know you need to catch the bus, same as Nick, so we should probably let you both go, and we have to get going pretty quick here too.”

“Yeah. And thanks again for having me, it was great.” Brian smiled brightly, and he and Nick headed out, after Nick said goodbye to the others, he and Owen having already said their personal goodbyes as the others were talking.

The boys headed off to ballet and danced their hearts out, learning another dance, this time the boys had to dance with the girls more directly, but that was okay. Grace looked a little out of sorts for the most part, so finally Kai asked her and she told them all about what had transpired that night and how the talk with her godfather had went. She said that he had started out with going up one side of her and down the other, ripping a strip off as he went, and then they talked for almost three hours. She said it was more intense than anything she had ever had to go through before, but she did understand a lot more now as well. Kai was only too happy to hear this, and made a mental note to call him and thank him, and he did know who her godfather was as well. The rest of Saturday went well for them, but they mostly relaxed. The boys had completely forgotten about Daniel's desire to take Kai to the arcade until later that evening, so he vowed to take him the next morning instead.

Sunday morning was quiet, and the boys stayed in for the most part in just their soggy diapers until just a little after lunch, when they decided to go for a walk to the mall. Neither Denise or Steven felt like going to the mall, so it was just the boys who went, and they all took some money with them so that they could have some fun.

“So, this is the machine, give it a shot.” Daniel said after dragging Kai into the arcade.

“You guys first.” Kai said.

“Okay.” They said, and one by one, the others all did it. Their numbers came up in the hi average mark, right around where you might expect sporty young teen boys to be. They figured that most adults would not be able to hit much higher than that, and wondered who would be able to peak out the scale. Kai got up, prepared himself, and then showed the others who could peak it out, with a hit that held nothing back, Kai wailed on it.

“Holy shit. You just sent the arrow past the maximum mark.” Daniel gasped.

“I take it that's good?” Kai asked, looking at the scale thing to make sure it was correct.

“Yeah. I've seen some pretty big guys hit this thing and never do anything like that. I've never even seen anyone hit it close to the maximum before, but you sent it past that.” Daniel said in awe.

“Wow, no wonder you nearly killed Brian with one hit, even if you did pull it.” Owen said in awe.

“Um, I think I better learn control real fast.” Kai said in shock, because he never figured he hit that hard.

“I think that might not be such a bad idea. It's a good thing you're not into boxing or you could kill a few people.” Daniel laughed.

“Wow. I think we better reset this before anyone starts asking who managed that.” Kenny suggested.

“I agree, I don't want anyone to know this please guys?” Kai asked.

“Don't worry, we won't tell.” Kenny smiled.

“Not even the guys in hockey please?”

“We won't.”

They all knew that information like that should not be passed around. They also knew they had to actively work to keep Kai calm until he learned to control his punches more. This would not normally be a problem, because he was normally very calm cool and collected anyway, but if someone pissed him off enough, they did not want him hitting them.

“Thanks guys.”

“No problem. Now, let's go have some fun.” Daniel smiled.

They stayed in the arcade playing for nearly two hours, just having fun. After that they headed out into the mall to look around for a bit, and then decided to catch a movie at the theatre there. All in all it was a really nice and relaxing day, and even though they had all wanted to work out, they admitted that it was nice to just kick back and relax and have fun too.

The rest of the week went by quickly for the boys. They found out that the first round of the playoffs were complete and they now had a list of their next few games, and they were only slightly surprised to see that they were now going to be playing at least three games a week for the next couple weeks at least, and their first was Wednesday night. Their games on Wednesday and Friday went real well, even though the one game was a close one, but they still won. They had a game on Sunday as well, but they lost that game by one point, at two to one for the opposing team. None of the boys were terribly upset, because it had been a good game. Not one of the games they took a penalty, but they took more than a few hits, and gave a few good ones themselves.

“Man, am I beat.” Josh said the next morning as they were getting dressed for their hockey practice on Monday morning.

“Same.” Everyone else said as one, more than a few of them stifling yawns.

“And we have three games this week as well. I don't know how they expect us all to keep up with all this and still manage in school as well.”

“They figure that if we want to win it that we'll deal with it, and besides, like they really care. Remember, most people that live and breath hockey don't think school's all that important.” Kai smiled. Out of all of them, he was the least tired, Kenny, Owen and Daniel were close, though they were all getting tired as well.

“I suppose so, just never thought I'd get this far before.” Josh smiled.

“Well, we're here now, so we may as well do our best. We'll have time to rest once the playoffs are over.” Kai smiled.

“Easy for you to say, you're probably the only one of us who's not tired yet.”

“Believe me, I'm tired, I'm just more used to this pace is all. You could be as well, but it's too late for this season. We'll work harder next season and get you guys more used to this.” Kai grinned evilly.

“Right, like that makes me feel any better.” Josh laughed.

“It should actually. Come on though, we better get ready and go practice.” Kai smiled.

They all grumbled more as they got into their gear and then went and hit the ice. They practiced hard, but it was not Mitch pushing them so much as it was they themselves doing most of the work. The boys had gotten a taste of winning, and they liked it, and they wanted to continue. That did not mean they were getting greedy though, they loved the game still, and they did not mind if they lost, just as long as they knew they tried their best.

As soon as they stumbled off the ice, they all spent as much time soaking under the spray of their showers as they possibly could before going and getting dried and dressed. They then went about their day as per usual, all of them tired, but happy. Thursday was probably the hardest day for them though, because they had school during the day, ballet after class, and then with just barely enough time after that to eat, they had to get to a hockey rink nearly an hour from home to make their game. They actually ate in the car to help save some time, so that they could make it in time.

They made it alright, and then went in and got changed and went out and played their hearts out. They won, it was against the same team that had nearly tried to flatten them in the first game, and even though they had tried to beat them into the ice again, the boys only laughed and out skated them and out played them, seven to one in fact.

Friday afternoon they had another game, and then on Sunday as well. The boys were all starting to feel more than a little tired and sore, but with that game, they took the semi finals for their division, and they were now moving into the finals. So another two weeks of pure hell for them. They were all getting tired beyond belief, and not once did Kai or the others work out any extra, and it was not even Steven or Denise that had told them not to, they figured it had to be a given.

The worst part for them though was that they barely had any time to themselves, and although they were still getting in at least a little personal time, they were getting nowhere near enough to keep the pressure down. They were also not getting to spend much time with their friends, but they all figured that in two weeks, hockey would pretty much be over, and then they had a month until gymnastics started, so they would have lots of time after that.

Finally they were on their final game of the season, it was Friday afternoon, in fact they had to go right from school, they had made it to the last game, they were all nervous beyond belief, and would you not just figure, but it was against the one team that sure seemed to be every bit as good as they were, the one they had lost to early on in the playoffs. They were good with that though, and were happy to really have to push, to really want it, and they did want it too.

“Boys, never in my dreams did I feel that you'd make it this far, but here you are now, and you've done it, you've made it this far with the love of the game. I want you to go out there and have the best time of your lives, whether you win or lose, you're the best there is, it doesn't matter what the final score is any more, you've proven to yourselves how good you can be if only you act as a team, be friends, and you are friends. Now, go out there and show all those others how much you love the game.” Mitch said, tears actually streaking down as he gave the boys his pep talk.

They lined up, and all the boys smiled to the boys they were playing against, they had all hoped and feared that they would get to face the final game together, because they all knew that to win it, they would have to really dig deep and play with all their hearts, not to mention every shred of skill they had. The whistle blew, and then it was fast and furious. The funny thing was, there was very little hard hitting, they were all playing hard, but it was every second a give and take game. By the end of the first period, they were still tied at zero, it was a point free game so far, yet there were more than two dozen shots taken against each net, only the defense and the goalies did their jobs well and denied every shot.

The boys all took a few minutes breather before the whistle blew again and they lined up. The second period was no better than the first, it was an amazing everyone on the edge of their seats game. The parents and spectators in the seats were screaming themselves hoarse, they were amazed at the skill that the boys were all showing, it was amazing to say the least. Yet, at the end of the second period, still not one puck had been let in.

They took another breather for a few minutes before getting back out on the ice and doing it all over again. But the problem was, the buzzer went, signaling the end of the third period, and the game was still scoreless. The boys were all getting tired now, they had been going hard for more than an hour, playing with every ounce of their strength and skill.

They went into overtime and lined up, all the boys congratulating each other, but swearing that they were going to put an end to this game. Yeah, not quite. One regulation overtime period was still not enough to take the game, they still had not managed to make one shot on net that slipped passed. The second overtime started, and the boys were really starting to drag tail now, and it was more than likely now going to come down to who made the first mistake.

It was Kai that managed to take the puck and get a break away almost half way through the overtime, and he skated hard, he used every ounce of strength that he had in him and pushed with everything he had. There was only one player standing in his way, or skating towards him as it were, and Kai was not going to let him stop him in the least. This time using another figure skating trick, he jumped to the side, just before he was going to be hit, spinning as he did so, tucking his arms and stick into his side, and missed the player that was hell bent on stopping him. Just as he had jumped though, he had stopped the puck and fired it to the same side he was going to jump to, and as he landed, the puck was right there waiting for him.

Taking the puck with him, he was now faced only with the goalie, he started skating hard again, handling the puck as if he had been born to it, and as soon as he was close enough to be sure of a good clean shot, he fired. He gave it his all, using every ounce of strength once again that he could muster, and gave the puck such a shot, that not only did his stick snap upon impact, but when it sailed past the goalie and hit the rear support bar, it rang like a church bell, signaling more than the loud bells going off that the game was finally won.

Every player on the ice stopped dead in his tracks, just to be sure it was a valid goal, and when the ref did in fact call it, they all slumped to the ice. The boys all cried, not one of them were without tears. It had been without a doubt the best game any of them had ever played, and even the losing team was not crying because they lost, but because they too had played so well. It took only a few seconds for them to get back up onto their skates, and only a second later, every player and both coaches spilled onto the ice. They congratulated in the center of the rink, and talked happily.

“My god, never before have I seen you boys play so well before.” The opposing teams coach said proudly to his boys.

“Same here.” Mitch said.

“Congratulations on the win Mitch, it was well deserved by a well deserving team. You're boys did amazing out there, every bit as good as my boys did.”

“Thanks, they did do amazing, both our boys. I don't know about you, but I think they all deserve the biggest most fattening ice cream sundaes we can buy for them.”

“That they do, that they do. Unless I'm mistaken though, me and my boys should clear off the ice so that they can pass you and your boys your trophy.” He smiled.

“Oh yeah, I almost forgot about that, I would have just taken off without it, not exactly used to getting this far.” Mitch laughed.

“Same here actually.” He laughed, and then he gathered his boys and herded them into the change room to get changed.

The boys had all talked happily with each other, congratulating each other on such a well played game. Finally the losing teams coach flagged them down and told them to all get changed, that they were going out. Mitch called out to his boys to gather around as the refs and the league chairperson skated or walked onto the ice carrying the trophy.

“Congratulations Coach on the well deserved win. We're happy to say that you deserve this a great deal, never before have we seen boys this age play so well.”

“I wish I could take credit for all this Sir, but sadly, I cannot. This was all because of the boys, they worked their asses off to get this far, they became friends so that their teamwork would naturally improve. No, it's them that you should be congratulating.” Mitch smiled.

“While I'm sure that's true, I was going to be congratulating each and every one of them as well, so they're going to get their fair share as well. Everyone knows though that without a good coach, the team will still fail, no matter how good they are.”

“Not so sure about that. Sure, I can teach them things, guide them, but I can only do so much, the rest has to be up to them.”

“True. Just take the congratulations.” He grinned.

“Oh I am, just stating that it wasn't all me.” Mitch grinned back.

The chairman then went and congratulated each and every one of the boys, stopping at Kai last to let him know how amazed he was at the move he had pulled off, and of course he asked where he had learned it, so Kai told him. To say he was shocked would have to be a bit of an understatement. Finally all the boring crap was over with and the boys were ushered into the change room to get changed. Mitch went out to the main waiting area where all the parents would be, and arranged with them to take the boys out.

“Would anyone mind if all the boys came and spent the weekend at our house afterward? They could all use the rest and relaxation, and they could all stand to be with their friends after all this?” Denise asked them as well.

“Sure.” All the parents said, they thought it sounded like a good idea. A couple of the parents stayed to help chauffeur the boys around, but the rest left, knowing their boys would be too happy to really notice or pay much attention to the fact that they were gone anyway. None of them even worried about clothes for the boys, knowing that they would be fine with what they had in their bags.

Mitch went over and talked to the other coach and arranged with him, and he told Mitch that he had already called to a place that purported to have the best sundaes in town and reserved the entire place for the next hour or two, and Mitch was good with that. His team came out first of course, but only a few minutes later Mitch's boys came out as well and gathered around their coaches as they told them the plans.

A few minutes later they were all piled into their rides for the night, all their gear having been stowed as best as possible, it just barely fit. They then drove the nearly half hour to the ice cream place, and when they went in, the boys were told to go ahead and order what they wanted, and to not worry about money. And they ordered whatever they wanted too. For more than an hour, every last one of the boys talked and laughed and got to know each other. They were all happy beyond belief, and it showed immensely. They ate and enjoyed every sinfully good bite of the treat that a few rarely ever touched, but that none of them really should, but could not pass up to celebrate such a situation. Finally they all headed home for the night and Steven had his crew, Denise having taken their gear with her. The others were in the other cars, and they followed Steven and the boys all the way home.

“Owen, call Nick and tell him to come over as soon as he can make it if he can, I'm going to call Brian and tell him the same thing.” Kai said as soon as they walked in. He would have done it in the car, but it was far too noisy for that.

“Okay.” Owen said brightly.

Owen grabbed the house phone, while Kai grabbed his cell phone, and they both made their calls. Both sounded happy with that idea and quickly got it cleared by their parents. Both parents offered to drive their sons, to save them having to take buses in the early evening, it was already dark, and they did not care for that much, and it was quicker for the boys as well.

“As soon as our other guests arrive guys, I'm going swimming and I'm gonna relax, is anyone against that?” Kai called out.

“No.” They all said happily. To say they could all use the rest would be the understatement of the year.

They did not have long to wait, maybe fifteen minutes before the other two guests arrived. While they waited, they talked happily, the adults seeming to have disappeared to let the boys have their fun and enjoy their happy talk. As soon as Nick and Brian arrived, they headed out to the pool house, all of them stripping as they went. The two newer boys not caring any more.

“Wow, what a night, huh?” Kai sighed as he was laying back in the hot tub. There were only five others in there with he and Kenny.

“I'll say. I've never felt so high in my life.” Kenny sighed as well.

“I've been there a few times before, but it never gets old I tell you. Are you as tired as I am though?”

“Think about what you're asking!” Kenny laughed, the others did too.

“Yeah, I guess you probably are, but you're getting nearly as good as I am and can keep going just about as long too.” Kai pointed out.

“Yeah, but the key words are just about. Not quite there yet, doubt I ever will be, I don't think I can push myself any harder and not collapse, and you know what my dad would say about that.”

“Yeah, I can hear him now, and it's not pretty. He'd probably kill me first though for pushing you that hard, or allowing you to do so.” Kai giggled.

“You're probably right. Man this feels good. I don't know about the others, but I'm not moving any more muscles tomorrow than absolutely necessary.”

“Same here.” Everyone in the hot tub said at the same time.

They all sighed after that, and for almost half an hour more, they just laid there relaxing. Everyone else was doing the same thing, only they were in different areas. They would talk for a few minutes and then relax, and then talk for a few minutes more and relax more. They all also went back and forth between the pool, sauna, steam room and hot tub. They stayed out there for a little more than two hours before the boys were all well relaxed and more than just a little ready for bed. Nick and Brian were of course told all about the game, but they had already known how tired the boys were, because they had been kept up to date on everything.

As soon as the boys were all cleaned and dried off, the ones who wanted or needed diapers were diapered by those who did not, a few of them blushing, but they did well, and then they went to the living room, only to find that Steven and Denise had already set their bed up for them and had a huge jug of fresh fruit juice for them, because they knew the boys would need it. There was also a large stack of fresh fruit for them, and they dug in greedily and ate and drank almost every last bite and or drop of it. It was not much later that they were all sound asleep, limbs everywhere, impossible to tell where one boy started and another stopped, it looked comfortable and very loving.

“So, how's it going anyway Brian? I didn't really get much of a chance to talk to you last night?” Kai asked the next morning as they were sitting there in their soggy diapers and eating breakfast.

“Pretty good. I had the scope done yesterday, as you knew, it's been a pain having to wait so long, but the hospital kept pushing it back, I'd been ready for it for almost two weeks. Anyway, it bloody well hurt. I mean it wasn't anywhere near as bad as getting hit hard, and nowhere near as bad as when you hit me, but still, having that thing stuck up my dick was really painful. I got to see the whole thing though, because the monitor was turned so that I could see everything as well, and it was pretty cool. The news though wasn't good. My bladder sphincter was wide open, the technician said that wasn't supposed to be like that, and he said there's only one reason he can think of to cause that, and that's nerve damage. He made me try and squeeze, and while I could close it up a little, he said it was more that it was just my stomach muscles pushing on it than anything.”

“They ran a few more tests and confirmed it, detached nerves, and while they might be able to fix it, there was too much damage they figured to get me anywhere near full control back, maybe just minor. I told them not to worry, that I wasn't going to go through with anything unless there was at least a fifty percent chance they could fix it. He said there wasn't even a fifty percent chance he could make it better, and said there was next to no chance to fully fix it. I stopped using the catheters though, I've had two urinary tract infections in the last month, and diapers are less of a pain. Some kids found out at school, but I just ignore them and go about my business. The names have lessened at least.” Brian said, and his smile said that he was not in the least upset by this.

“I see. You don't look upset.” Kai smiled warmly.

“I'm not, really. I know I should be, no self respecting boy would ever want to wear diapers, at least that's what most people think, but I'm self respecting, and I like them. Granted, I do need them too.” He smiled as well.

“Great. We're happy for you, and while I'm still sorry I caused you so much pain, I'm glad I at least helped you to find something so nice.”

“I certainly wouldn't ask for it, but it happened, so I may as well live with it right?”

“For sure. How about your love life? I hear Daniel introduced you to someone and you've gone to a few gay club meetings together?” Kai grinned.

“Oh yeah, we're hitting it off great. He spent last weekend at my house, and we got to know each other pretty good, if you know what I mean.” He smiled brightly.

“Very good. How was he anyway when you told him Daniel, we didn't have time to get into it and I forgot about it with everything that we've been doing lately?”

“He was surprised at first that I told him I was gay, more surprised that I told him I knew he was as well, and then too shocked to say anything when I told him I wanted him to come to a gay group meeting with me. He did come with me though, and then I introduced him to Brian, and well let's just say that sparks flew right away, and we're lucky they're still allowed in school, because for a second I thought they were going to fuck like bunnies right on the center table of the meeting room”

“It wasn't anywhere near that bad.” Brian giggled.

“Maybe not, but a little friendly embellishment was warranted. Besides, tell me you didn't at least think it.”

“I think I'll take a vow of silence on that one.” Brian grinned.

“That's what I thought. I bet though if you two had have gotten it on right then and there, everyone else would have gathered around and cheered you on, and probably grabbed hold of the guy next to him. Where the girls would have gone and or did I don't know or care. Granted, some of them are bi, so they may have joined in as well.” Daniel giggled.

“I don't doubt that in the least, but I don't much care what the girls get up to, as long as it's not with me.” Brian laughed.

“Same.” Almost all the boys there said. The straight boys just shook their heads.

“So, what do your parents think of you having to wear diapers all the time permanently then, and have you told them you have a boyfriend yet?”

“My mom was more worried about how I was handling it than anything really, but I just told her I was okay with it, that it really wasn't that bad, and that living with that was far easier than some other things. I haven't said anything yet, but from the smiles they gave me when James left last weekend, they know. I just smiled back, but I was probably blushing a lot, because their smiles said they knew a lot more than I wanted them to know. As for what my dad thinks about my wearing diapers, I really don't know, he hasn't said anything. Nothing at all, no good or bad comments, it's as if he accepted it before even I did.”

“That's good.” Kai giggled, the others did as well. “You're dad's probably just giving you the time to adjust before he asks you anything, either that or he's a closet diaper lover and enjoys seeing you in diapers, even if you don't walk around the house in only diapers, but I hope you do now.”

“I do, it shocked my mom at first, but I said it was more comfortable, just like when I walked around in only my boxers. Again, my dad never said anything, just looked up and smiled warmly to me. I doubt he's a diaper lover though, because if he loved seeing me in diapers, I'd see him watching me more than he does. All he usually does is look up at me and smile and say something or another and then go back to what he was doing.”

“Then he's just waiting for you to adjust fully, but he should realize that if you're walking around the house in only diapers, you've adjusted fully. Maybe you should ask him how he feels about his thirteen year old son having to wear diapers.”

“Why, what difference does it make?”

“If he's having troubles with it in any way, he needs to know that you're okay with it and that he should be too.”

“Oh. I suppose that makes sense. Now, I'm willing to bet that you remember the question you asked me a few weeks ago now, but I've thought it over real well, and if your coach would allow it, I'd love to change over to your team.” Brian said happily.

“Really, you sure?” Kai asked happily.

“As sure as I've ever been about anything. At least on your team I know I won't get teased for wearing diapers, because half the team does too, and same with being gay. Speaking of which, how do the rest of you guys feel about having so many gays and or diaper lovers on your team?” Brian asked, he had to know.

“Well, I for one have no problems with it at all, and none of the others do either. Really, if you want to look at me when I'm naked, fly at er, just don't expect me to accept your advances. Besides, if you guys are gay, it leaves more girls for me. As for your wearing diapers, so what, it's just different underwear, and even I can see how they'd be convenient, and I have no desire to wear them.” Jeff said happily.

“Same.” All the non gay and diaper wearers said.

“That's really good. I wondered how my team would take my being a diaper wearer, we hadn't talked once since I stopped going to hockey, we never talk outside of it in fact. I'd also never tell them I was gay, somehow I don't think that'd go over well there.” Brian laughed.

“You never know. None of the others on the team realized there were so many gay boys on the team 'til we had our big chat and told each and every one of us our deepest and darkest secrets, our fantasies, and everything else pretty much in between. There's probably at least one or two other gays on your old team, or at the very least bi. A few of the gays on our team are in fact bi, but so far, I haven't heard one word of them wanting a girl, not that I care one way or the other, or understand why they'd want that when they can have a boy.” Kai giggled.

“I can agree to that, and you're probably right about my old team. I like that, it sounds nice.” Brian smiled.

“Good. I think I speak for all of us when I say I'm glad that you're joining us. You're a pretty good player already, and playing with friends and helping on a real team can only make you better, trust me, it helped the others a great deal. They were already pretty good too, but they, like you, weren't playing as a team, so they had no way to win.”

“Thanks. I look forward to training with you guys, that's for sure.”

“What do you do during the hockey off season?”

“Usually baseball or soccer or something like that. Don't know what I want to do this year though, if anything.”

“Why not join us in gymnastics, in fact, why don't all of you? We can do it for free, we can do it here, I can teach everyone everything that you'd ever need to learn. We can do it on Sundays, and really get a good practice going.” Kai smiled.

“I don't know, won't your parents complain about that?” Brian asked curiously.

“Why would they?” Kai asked.

“I don't think my parents would like that many kids coming to their house every weekend, in fact I know they wouldn't.”

“My mom won't, I bet, she's pretty relaxed about most things, and if I'm teaching you all something, then she'd be all for it. My mom's big on kids learning, she says it's the best thing we can possibly do, and that to fail to learn is life's largest failure. And by the way, if you all agree to come over to do it, there won't be any playing around, if you think any of your coaches are hard, they're nothing in comparison to me, I will push you to learn, and I'll enjoy hearing you moan and groan in pain.” Kai smiled warmly, meaning every word of it.

“Believe him, for what he says is true.” Kenny had to laugh, because he knew it well.

“What if I don't want to do gymnastics though?” Tim asked.

“Then don't come, it's not mandatory, you're not obligated to, and I certainly wouldn't force anyone to join. I can guarantee a few things though if you do join in.” Kai said, leaving it hanging to get the others to wonder what. Finally Ben had to ask.

“What can you guarantee?”

“That by next hockey season, you'll be even better hockey players.”

“How, what's that got to do with gymnastics?”

“Lots. How do you think I learned to play hockey so fast and so well. Gymnastics played a huge part in that. Everything that I do in gymnastics I do in dance and figure skating as well, just in gymnastics you do more and you use even more muscles. I love gymnastics almost as much as I love dance, and I love it because it's just as free, but more so because it allows me to be able to do all that I do in dance, and even now in hockey. I'll also guarantee that I'll be able to help build your endurance and stamina, your strength and even your speed. Also, gymnastics is a lot of fun.”

“Okay, let's say we do decide to join, what all can you teach us?” Brian asked, because he had not seen any of what Kai could do.

“If you've ever seen it done in gymnastics, there's a better than even chance I can teach it to you. I know almost as much about gymnastics as I do dance, and everything that I can teach you will probably take at least two years of hard learning for me to teach you.”

“Oh. I didn't know you were that good in gymnastics as well. You usually just talk about hockey and dance.”

“Yeah, that's because that's what I was doing at the time. I do ballet all year, no breaks there at all, except a few weeks in the summer time for Dianne to take vacation, and in the winter I used to do figure skating, but I traded in figure skates for hockey skates, and in the summer I do gymnastics. It worked well for me, because like I said, all three use many of the same principles, so it helped me to keep my skills very sharply honed.” Kai said unashamedly, not having a hard time admitting all this to the others much any more.

“Wow, and I thought I had had a full schedule.” Brian laughed.

“Nowhere near as much as I usually do. I normally do something each and every single day, even if it's just by myself in my own gym, and I'm usually at it for at least a few hours as well. I usually work out two hours every morning, no matter what, and in the afternoons that I didn't have practice of some sort, I also worked out, usually an hour or two. Weekends were usually around four or so hours hard work. Not much has changed mind you, we still do much the same, only with hockey finals screwing everything up, we haven't been doing much for morning exercises, but now that hockey's over, we start Monday once again. I'd also like to start gymnastics next weekend. I want to do it at least one day during the week as well, maybe Wednesday afternoons for a couple hours after school.”

“Wow, that sounds like a lot.”

“It is, but I'm used to it, and Daniel, Owen and Kenny are all almost used to the schedule as well, even if they can't push quite as much as I do yet, but Kenny seems to think he can't push any more, but I think he could, just not yet.” Kai smiled.

“Well, I guess I might be interested in joining you guys for gymnastics, especially if you can pretty much guarantee that it can only help in hockey as well.” Brian smiled.

“Good. Who else would like to join us?” Kai asked.

“Me.” Every other person there answered.

“Great, and you can ask James if he wants to join in as well. I warn you though, we all wear tights for doing workouts, and I'll tell you all where to buy your tights for working out in, or if you can't, you can give me the money and I'll buy them for you.” Kai offered. Most of the boys said they would give him the money, but they should have known better than that, he was already thinking of buying them all pink tights.

“I might just do that, he probably should get some exercise, he's just too skinny to be healthy, he's so small. It's no wonder that big oaf Daniel was able to pick on him so easily.”

“Hey, I'm an ex big oaf, okay.” Daniel said all in a huff, then started giggling.

“That's good.” Brian smiled.

“Let's get this cleaned up real quick, and then let's go find something to do that doesn't require much work, because we're all resting today as much as possible.” Kai called out.

They all helped to clean up, and with them all doing it, it took a grand total of approximately thirty seconds to complete. From there they decided that all the diaper wearers should get changed, because they were all still in the soggy night diapers, and then thy figured if they were going to strip, they may as well go swimming. So they all stripped as they headed to the pool house, and then quickly showered off and jumped in the pool. For the next hour, they all played around in the pool, just having a lot of fun, they did not even hit the hot tub or anything. The hot tub and sauna and steam room though did get use after the boys had their fun in the pool, so they went and laid back and relaxed.

“This is really nice.” Brian sighed deeply.

“Yeah, it is isn't it? There just can't be better than being completely and totally free to be who you are amongst friends, laying back and relaxing. Life can be so nice if you let it.” Kai sighed as well.

“Mmm hmm.” Everyone else around them sighed as well, although half the boys were spread amongst the other two amenities.

They all traded places back and forth a few times in the heating places for half an hour before all hitting the pool for one final cool down dip, and then they got out, showered off, diapered or dressed in underwear, and then headed back in the house. From there it was decided to lay back and watch movies for the rest of the day. Steven and Denise were both up by now, Steven had of course been awake when the boys got up, but he stayed in his room reading, letting the boys have their privacy, so they joined the boys in their movie marathon. They ate and drank all sorts of things that were not healthy for you in the least, and they all enjoyed it.

The rest of the day was spent much like that, just laying back and relaxing, enjoying the company a great deal. They watched movies, they played games, they sat around talking and laughing, they just enjoyed themselves, but before they knew it, it was bedtime once again. They all curled up in their mass nest of boys and slept like logs until morning, when they pretty much did the same things all over again, until just after lunch, when it was decided by all that they should be heading home.

“Thanks guys for coming this weekend, it was great.” Kai said to everyone just as they were about to leave, they had all said they would take the buses.

“Thanks for having us.” They all said.

A few minutes later they were all gone, and the boys went and cleaned up their nest on the living room floor, utilizing all four washers and driers to just get it all cleaned and dried as fast as possible.

“You boys look a lot more relaxed and happy now.” Steven said after they had all gathered back in the living room shortly after.

“Thanks, I think we all are.” Daniel smiled.

“Good. I'm really proud of you boys. You've all done spectacularly lately, and you have lots to be proud of yourselves for as well.”

“Thanks, I think I speak for us all when I say we are.” Daniel smiled brighter.

“We are.” The other three boys said as one.

“And so you should be. I'm also lifting some of your restrictions for working out, now that you're not having to deal with hockey games as well as practice, you can feel free to work out every morning again as normal.”

“Thanks.” All four of them said.

“What are your plans now that hockey's over?”

“Kai's gonna teach the entire team gymnastics here, assuming of course you guys allow it.” Kenny answered.

“That's a really good idea, it can only help you all in hockey even more.” Steven smiled.

“That's what I told them.” Kai grinned.

“And I think it's a great idea as well, you can all learn a great deal from Kai, he can teach you every bit as well as any professional could, so you'll all learn everything you'll ever need to know.” Denise smiled.

“Thanks mom.” Kai blushed.

“You're welcome.” She grinned.

“It'll also be really good for the families that maybe can't afford so much as well, that way their kids can come and learn something really good, but it won't cost them a dime.” Steven said.

“Yeah, but that's not the reason I offered to do it.” Kai said.

“We know that, but it's a benefit any way you look at it.” Steven pointed out.

“I know, I wasn't disagreeing, only saying that wasn't even one of the reasons I did so, I did it for at least a dozen other reasons, biggest of all was that they could all use the extra training.”

“That's good. So, how does it feel to get to do your morning exercises again?”

“Ask me Monday after school.” Kenny grinned.

“Just no pushing as hard as you all were, when you get tired, back off a bit, don't push yourselves to the brink of exhaustion again.”

“Okay.” All the boys said.

“Well boys, we desperately need groceries and supplies, so let's all go shopping, and I think we'll get dinner out tonight as well.” Steven said.

“Dinner is my treat tonight.” Denise said, and they all knew where she wanted to go, and they were all happy with that.

In fact, she called right away and reserved their best table for the six of them, and the boys and Steven all went and got dressed, packed their diaper bags, and then they were off. Steven and Denise went into the medical supply store and grabbed all the diapers and diaper supplies for the boys and Steven, while the boys once again went to the electronics store next door to look around.

From there they hit a large grocery mega store and three buggies were grabbed and they loaded all three of them up real well. The funny thing was to most looking was that there was not one thing in any one of the buggies that could be considered anywhere near junk food. The closest they had to that was one single loaf of multi-grain bread, since they all so very rarely ate bread. Once fully loaded, they went and paid for it all, and then took it all home and put it away quickly, and were off once again to make their reservations at the restaurant, and they made it just in time.

Once there they all sat back and relaxed and chatted idly as they awaited their food. When the food arrived, there was no surprise to hear the entire group stop making any noise at all, in fact they stopped mid sentence and enjoyed their meal, scarcely one sound being made after. Of course they all enjoyed their meal a great deal, they paid their bill and headed home for the night. The boys pretty much went straight to bed, Steven following Daniel as well, and that was where they stayed for the night.
