Disclaimer: Warning: this story contains sexual content, and contact between young boys. If the subject matter offends you, is not to your tastes, or if you are under legal age for your area, then find something else to read. In the following story all names and events are completely fictional. Although I may mention a specific location, place, or person any resemblance to said people, location, or places is completely unintentional. Chapter 11: After he left we were buzzing with excitement. Even though we knew we would probably end up in tears on national TV, we were excited about the fact that the nation cared. We could also tell our own story to the people, as opposed to the media version they had heard. We also agreed with each other that we would tell almost everything. The only things we were going to leave out were, well the sex stuff of course. Otherwise we were happy to tell the nation about or relationship, because we were comfortable with it. We figured that if anyone tried to mess with us because of it, that we knew enough people who would fight for us if needed. Ten minutes after the reporter left mum came back in looking completely dumbstruck. She was struggling to comprehend to report the doctor had just told her. She was even more baffled with Caleb and I rabbiting on about being on TV tomorrow and Monday. Once she finally came back to earth she asked us what we were on about, and told us to tell her one at a time. Caleb figured that she was my mother so I should be the one to tell her. She was a little sceptical about us doing the interview, but she wasn't going to stand in our way. It was our decision. After a while of chatting away Caleb and I drifted off to sleep. It had been a hectic day and we were extremely tired. Once we were asleep mum and dad headed off to the hotel again. I was woken during the night from Caleb tossing and turning, I felt him suddenly sit bolt upright with a gasp, before he lay back down and snuggled into me tightly and fall back to sleep. I was a little annoyed from what I had said to him earlier, that he hadn't woken me. He should have told me he had a nightmare. Although I'm not really sure he actually woke up this time from it this time. If he had it was only briefly he may not have comprehended it, so I just let it slide this time. ************ I woke up the next morning to the warm morning sun beaming through the window. It was glowing off our now naked bodies, as at some stage during the night the sheet that had been covering us had been kicked off. The sun was making our bodies glow in the most glorious orange colour, and it was setting us up for another magnificent day. I couldn't help but wonder what was in store for us today. I saw Caleb's wondrous blue eyes shimmering in the sunlight the same way that water glistens in the light. He saw that I was finally awake and gave me the most passionate kiss. It ended up with us tongue wrestling and squirming around the bed jostling for position. How I had missed these kisses. We had been too tentative to do it given that someone could come into the room at any stage. But this morning we decided to throw all caution to the wind and just go for it. "Do you want to go outside now?" Caleb whispered to me breaking off the kiss. "I don't know whether that is such a? ah to hell with it, let's go!" I whispered back. I was really missing the outdoors now that I was willing to go along with whatever diabolical scheme Caleb had planned, and he gave me the most mischievous smile. He then hopped out of bed and headed to the door and cracked it open. I could see he had his morning wood, and was a bit worried he would wander around with it like that. But he surprised me as he only poked his head through the door, and asked the nearest nurse for two robes. The nurse came back about five minutes later and gave Caleb a couple of green hospital robes. He threw one to me to put on, as he slid his one over his head and down his torso. Then he left the room. While I struggled to put my robe on Caleb did his business in the toilet, and then found a wheelchair and bought it in for me. I did my best to get out of bed. I managed to take the couple of steps needed to get to the wheelchair. My strength then gave out and I collapsed into the waiting wheelchair. Caleb praised me with how well I had done, which made me happy. Then we set off. Caleb wheeled me out of our room and down the corridor towards the main entrance to the ward from outside. It was a big set of clear glass automatic sliding doors. He wheeled me under the sensor and we waited while the doors slid open by themselves. Then we were free. Both of us surprised that no one had tried to stop us. He pushed me in the wheelchair out the doors and we were instantly hit by a wall of heat. We had been in an air conditioned hospital for so long we had forgotten what it was really like outside. We both stayed there just outside the doors for a moment enjoying the heat produced by the raging sun, which we loved feeling on our bodies again. Caleb decided we should go for a walk around the playground, so he cautiously wheeled me down the spiral wheelchair access ramp down to the ground below. It was only about 4 ft. from the top where the doors were to the ground below, but Caleb knew it was going to be hard to get back up again. He was so high on being outside again that he didn't care, and I felt the same way. Caleb gently wheeled me around the playground as we just enjoyed the sights, sounds and smells again of being outside. J C had decided to come in early to film the ad, with his cameraman. He stopped to talk to the boy's doctors, before seeing the parents and talking to them too. Then the reporter followed them to me and Caleb's room, and everyone was dumbfounded when they opened the door and found it empty. "Where have those two little rascals gone now?" Caleb's dad said. He was more surprised that I had disappeared, than seeing his son was not there. The group went rushing back to the doctors to see if they knew anything about it. The cameraman was filming everything as they went. The doctors were as dumbstruck as everyone else as they hadn't seen us leave the room. But just before they sent off on a massive search, they saw a wheelchair come in through the main entrance with two boys sitting in it, while getting pushed by an elderly couple. "I found these two outside and thought they might belong here," the elderly lady said giggling a little having seen the astonished look on everyone's faces. "Sorry. But we wanted to go outside. I was alright for a while but when we decided it was time to come back my legs gave out again," Caleb said sheepishly. Both he and I had huge smiles on our faces from having thoroughly enjoyed our little adventure to the world outside. Caleb's dad couldn't help but laugh. He thanked the elderly couple for bringing us back. They replied that it was their pleasure as we were such nice boys. Then they gave us boys a little hug and left. J C just joked that we knew how to make a good advert, as he then turned to the camera and introduced us, to our soon to be audience. Then he had the cameraman shut off the camera. Mum on the other hand didn't take things as lightly and started to tell Caleb off, before I told her it was as much my idea as it was Caleb's. I also told her that I would do it again too. That didn't go down the best as they started talking about locking us in our room. That had us worried, and we promising to behave. Everyone cracked up laughing at us as they had only been teasing. Caleb and I both let out a huge sigh of relief at knowing that. Of course Caleb was also planning for our next adventure. The reporter and his cameraman said their goodbyes and that they were looking forward to Monday, and then they left. Mum wheeled us back to the room. Then mum and dad helped us back into bed. They decided it best not to say anymore of the incident, so we just talked about other stuff instead. The doctor came in with our breakfast which we scoffed down to rebuild our now depleted energy reserves, and went back to talking. I suddenly decided on something that I had almost forgotten about, and asked mum for her cell phone. She gave me a puzzled look but handed me the phone no questions asked. I grabbed the business card sitting on the cabinet beside the bed and dialled. Once the call had been answered at the other end, I didn't waste any time and just said that I accept your offer and we can discuss it properly when we get the chance. Then I hung up. Getting quizzical looks from everyone, I just said that I had taken up Mr Black's offer. Everyone then smiled and congratulated me on. The next two days were pretty busy, with visitors coming and going. Luke, Tim and Chris all came to visit at various stages during the weekend. Even Mrs Milner and the principal graced us with their presence at some stage during the weekend. Dave spent most of Saturday with us, and managed to convince his parents to visiting again on Sunday. We told him that we thought he should turn up for the interview tomorrow as he has been a big part of our story. They agreed that they would come, but Dave wasn't sure whether he wanted to get filmed. We told him no problem; he didn't have to if he didn't want to. Other than our visitors, I had rehab both days and I am starting to get more and more strength back. Caleb and I took another unannounced stroll around, although we decided it safer to stay inside this time. The result was the same as Caleb had overestimated his strength, and we both had to be wheeled back again from a stranger. No one was particularly worried this time as they were starting to get used to our antics. Well should I say Caleb's antics. I just like to go for the ride. We did get to go outside again though, as our parents took us for a stroll around. Both of us were in separate wheelchairs. It sucked being separated from Caleb, but I still enjoyed everything else about being outside. On both nights Caleb had nightmares and he seemed to wake up to them. But neither time did he wake me. He just snuggled into me more and fell back asleep. I thought I would ask him about them. He seemed shocked to hear that he had woken up. He knows that he is still having the nightmares, but doesn't actually remember waking up to them. He apologised for not letting me know as he was supposed to. I just told him not to worry because he may not have actually woken up. It just seemed like he did, and I left it at that. Waking up on Monday morning Caleb seemed to be glowing with the excitement he was feeling. It was still dark when I woke but I could see Caleb lying there looking at me. He seemed to be as bright as the light of day. Seeing me wake up he started to kiss me passionately, and I reciprocated the gesture. We lay around for a while enjoying kissing each other and we were also enjoying the feelings generated from being with each other. After a while Caleb broke the kiss and got out of bed. That left me feeling cold and alone knowing that Caleb probably wouldn't be back in bed again till after school. He then made his way over to the bag of clothes, which his father had bought over for him the night that he had his problems. He opened it and rifled through the contents till he found what he was looking for. Due to the constant stream of visitors we had over the weekend, the doctors had forgotten to formally discharge Caleb. He figured he might as well use their facilities since he was still technically a patient. So he left the room and went down to the nurse's station to get a towel so he could take a shower. Before long I had a clean sexy boy re-enter my room. He was wearing a blue printed t shirt and short black rugby league style shorts again. I so love it when he wears those shorts. He used a chair to put his shoes and socks on. He had deliberately made sure that he was on the right angle to me so that I could see up the leg of his shorts. I gasped at seeing he was wearing nothing under them, and I could see his lovely package just dangling there exposed to the world. I was a bit worried about him not wearing underwear to school. But I was too much in a trance to say anything. Once he had his shoes and socks on he hopped back onto the bed, and started kissing and hugging me again. I returned the favour. But I couldn't help myself as I reached up the leg of his shorts and grabbed his package. I didn't get a chance to play with it properly as we had to break off our antics as we heard someone start to open our door. Dr Walker entered and was surprised to see Caleb dressed so early. Well probably more surprised to see Caleb dressed. He had a sheet of paper for his dad to sign, and then Caleb would be properly discharged again. After seeing dad wasn't here yet, he left. We started kissing again, but knowing someone could come in again at any moment I resisted the urge to fondle my sexy boy's package again. Sure enough dad arrived a couple of minutes later. He caught us by surprise as we were still embraced in a very passionate kiss. We quickly broke out of it when we saw him. Dr Walker then came back in and gave dad the discharge papers to sign. While he was signing that Mr Black arrived, and Caleb leapt out of bed and ran up to him. With Caleb now discharged he was free to go. But before he left he came over and gave me one more kiss on the lips before grabbing his school bag and following Mr Black. Mr Black led Caleb to his car, which was a brand new European luxury sedan. They got in, belted up, and drove off. They arrived at a large electronic iron gate a short time later. Mr Black had pressed a button on a remote just before they got there, to open it. It opened effortlessly and they drove through it, and along a nice smooth white gravel driveway up to his house. The gate closed behind them as effortlessly as it had opened. At the end of the drive was a little roundabout with a water fountain in the middle. They parked up in front of a massive early 19th century mansion. It was breathtakingly spectacular, its old grandeur made even more beautiful from years of upkeep and a fresh coat of white paint. Opposite the house on the other side of the drive was a helipad. On it sat a Kawasaki BK117 helicopter. It was 9.9 meters in length, and weighed 1,727Kg when empty. It was smaller than the rescue helicopter that I had been picked up in, but not by a lot. It was painted white, with a royal blue stipe down the middle, the length of the fuselage. Caleb couldn't wait to get in it. First though, Mr Black had noticed the boy had already showered, but figured through that lack of an empty plate in our room that the boy hadn't had breakfast. So they went up the three steps to the grand, solid Rimu front door, and entered the house. They walked straight into a massive hall, with a grand stair case in the middle. There was a royal red rug that ran the length of the hall, and up the stairs. They walked down the hall till they got to the last door on the right and went in. It was a massive restaurant style kitchen, which had everything a chef would ever need. There was also a breakfast bar there, so that Mr Black didn't always have to use his formal dining room to eat. He got Caleb to sit on a stool at the breakfast bar, while he got some cereal for him and then gave it to the hungry boy. While Caleb was eating Mr Black prepared the boy some lunch, Ham and cheese sandwiches, a couple of apples, and some yoghurt. Once Caleb had finished eating he went to inform his pilot that they were ready to go. Mr Black led the boy back outside and into the waiting helicopter. Caleb was blown away by the interior as it looked more like a flasher version of limousine than a helicopter. Even though factory standard it was designed to carry up to ten passengers, all the seats had been stripped out, and replaced with four lazy boy style seats. They had all been properly installed and certified. They were set out in sets of two, with a mini bar in the middle of each set. The seats were arranged like there was a table in between so that everyone on board, except the pilot, could sit and talk to each other directly. There was a beautiful blue carpet, on the floor, and the internal walls were a warm and welcoming sunrise orange. It reminded Caleb of looking out to sea first thing in the morning. They took a seat opposite each other and put on their safety harness. The pilot went through his pre-flight checks, and then started up the rotors. The noise from the rotors was quite loud inside the helicopter, but as they got up to their maximum revolutions the sound had eased back to a light thud. Then they lifted off. Mr Black told the boy that if he wanted a drink he could help himself to anything but the alcoholic drinks in the mini bar. Caleb opened it up and looked through the huge selection of beverages in there, and decided on a juice. He grabbed a bottle then closed the fridge again, before he opened the bottle and took a swig. In the process of getting a drink from the fridge Caleb had accidently given Mr Black a clear view up his short shorts. That caught the man by surprise when he saw the boys package completely exposed, instead of the underwear he had expected the boy to be wearing. "Caleb, did you bring any underwear? Because I don't think it's a good idea you wearing those shorts without anything on underneath," Mr Black asked not wanting to upset Caleb, but concerned as to what could happen at school. Even though he knew Caleb was at ease with his body he had noticed that the boy was still pretty small and was worried about other boys teasing him about it, if they saw his dick. "Shit, I forgot about that. Yeah I got some. I had meant to put them on before you turned up but got distracted," Caleb replied blushing a little. He then grabbed his school bag and found the blue briefs he had put in there. He undid his harness so that he could then pull his shorts off, and put on his undies. He then pulled his shorts back on, over his shoes and belted up again. Mr Black was quite surprised that he had made no attempt to hide himself while getting changed. He realised the boy must have become comfortable enough with him not to worry about something like that. Mr Black had always liked boys but he was not the sort of person to abuse kids. He just enjoyed looking at them, especially naked. He had really enjoyed the show Caleb had just put on, and had to readjust his fully hard cock as a result. Caleb really enjoyed the trip, as the scenery was so much more breath-taking from the air. He spent the rest of the trip just staring with amazement out the window, till his school came into view and the pilot started to land. As the helicopter landed on the fields in the school ground almost every kid and teacher at the school gathered round to see who had come in on such an awesome piece of machinery. Mr Black slid the door open so that Caleb could get out. Almost as soon as his feet touched the ground he was ambushed by Tim, Luke and Chris who were really surprised to see him at school yet again. They could tell from the glow on Caleb's face that he would be alright. After he got out and cleared a safe distance from the helicopter, Mr Black waved and then slid the door closed, and the pilot took off again. There were a lot of surprised and envious faces from the kids that had gathered. Some of them tried to swamp Caleb and ask him questions, but his friends kept them at bay as they made their way over to the courtyard. He saw Mrs Milner, and the principal giving him a concerned look. He just smiled at them, and they could tell through the way he was glowing that he would be alright. They got to some bleachers and sat down, and his friends wanted to make sure he was going to be alright. He answered them honestly that it was going to be hard. Especially being away from me for so long, but he would cope as the reason he was doing it was for me. He also reminded them that he had informed them he would be back today, but they hadn't believed him. They accepted his answer and asked him what it was like to get a helicopter ride. He explained how cool it was, and said to them that if they could get permission from their parents, he would be allowed to take them to the hospital in the helicopter tomorrow. That got them super excited. Then the bell rung and they had to head to assembly. It was an extremely long day for me. I felt so lonely without Caleb. Dad had stayed which helped a lot, but I was starting to regret making Caleb go to school. I came to the conclusion though that it was the best thing for my angel, and the sooner I got better the more time I was going to be able to spend with him. With that knowledge I started to really push myself during rehab. I made them get the walker for me as I wanted to start walking properly again. As a result I pushed myself too hard and ended up collapsing because my legs couldn't handle my weight anymore. I had to get helped back to bed by dad and Dr Miller. The rest of the day I just lay there moping until Caleb came back. Caleb had a few problems with his strength giving up on him too. Chris and Luke took it upon themselves to get Caleb to all his classes even if it meant that they were late. The stairs were the worst part for Caleb. He could make it up the first five or so easily, but any more than that and his legs would start to buckle. The first time he tried to climb the stairs almost ended up in tragedy. If it wasn't for Tim being not too far away when Caleb started to collapse, then things could have been much different. Tim had noticed out of the corner of his eyes that something wasn't right and got to Caleb just as he collapsed. He ended up carrying Caleb to class. He then told his other two friends about it at the first chance he could, and they said that they would take care of him. Caleb pretty much had to get carried to all his classes as he didn't have the strength to walk too far. The boys were only too thrilled to be finally able to help, as before now they had felt useless. It had eaten them up inside that there was nothing they could do to help their friends. But now with Caleb determined to get through a day of school they were able to help at last. They were feeling so happy inside as a result of it. Of course Caleb had to explain to his teachers numerous times that he was alright. That it was only temporary till he recovered all his strength. But they were still worried about him. The day ended and Caleb was really happy with himself, at having made it through his first full day back at school since the accident. He inadvertently held up his school bus, as Chris had to help him get to the helicopter, along with Luke who held up his bus too. They said their goodbyes once Caleb was safely in his seat. Caleb thanked them for helping him so much today. He sort of felt guilty because he had made them late to most of their classes. They just assured him they were thrilled at finally being able to offer some assistance. Then they slid the door closed and headed off towards their waiting rides. Once the helicopter was up to cruising altitude Caleb started to unbuckle his harness. "Um, Mr Black? do you mind if I take off my undies now? As I really hate wearing them," Caleb asked sheepishly. He thought he better make sure the man was comfortable with it, before he just went ahead and removed them. "You can wear anything you like in here. Just as long as you respectable when we get out," Mr Black replied in a voice that made Caleb feel totally at ease. So Caleb slipped his shorts off over his shoes. He followed with his undies which he put back in his bag, then decided to take his shirt off too. He wanted to enjoy being naked for a while. Then he sat back in the seat and made himself comfortable. Mr Black had been enjoying watching Caleb take off his shorts and especially his undies. Taking a nice long look at the boy's nice little package before he covered it back up. Caleb then surprised him as he took off his shirt, and he got a good look at the almost fully naked boy. He still had shoes and socks on so technically wasn't fully naked. He didn't think that Caleb would decide to take off all his clothes which left the man with a major problem. His erection was getting rather uncomfortable in his pants, and as much as he tried to readjust it he couldn't get comfortable. It meant that this was going to be a long trip. "Sorry, do you want me to put my clothes back on? So that you can get rid of your problem," Caleb asked sincerely after noticing that Mr Black was constantly trying to readjust himself. "Um, it's up to you, but it might be helpful as you really are sexy," Mr Black answered honestly, but disappointed at knowing he would probably put his clothes back on. It would be more to help the man out than any other reason. "Why don't you just take your clothes off too? And be like me," Caleb said thinking that he had come up with a better solution than him having to get changed again. "It's not appropriate for me to be naked, and with a boner, around someone so young. I also don't want to do anything that would compromise our friendship," Mr Black answered honestly. Knowing that if he took his cock out of his pants he may end up doing something that he would regret doing. He would just prefer to dream about the image of Caleb naked while he beat off at night. "OK. I suppose I better put some clothes on then," Caleb said disappointed at having to get changed again. But if he was causing the man to have a painful boner then he knew that he had no other choice. He couldn't stand being responsible for such discomfort, especially when the man had been really good to him and me. Well ever since our first meeting anyway. So Caleb put his shirt and shorts back on and sat back down. He remembered he had told his friends that they could come with him tomorrow, so thought he had better double check with Mr Black that he was alright with that. Mr Black just told him that he could bring anyone along as long as they could all fit in. He didn't need to ask permission every time. He said it would be fine he would give them the whole of the cabin, and he would sit in the co-pilots seat. He would prefer to be with Caleb every time he's on board. It wasn't because he didn't trust Caleb, it was because he was still worried about him, and could never forgive himself if something was too happened to him while he was on the helicopter. They made it back to his house, and traded the helicopter for his car. His teachers felt that he should get his strength back before he started trying to catch up. So he had no homework to do. Caleb was so busting to see me again, that as soon as Mr Black had parked the car he had jumped out and ran towards the hospital. Mr Black couldn't get out of the car and lock it up fast enough. By the time he had caught up to Caleb it was because the boy's legs had given up the ghost again. He ended up sprawled along the sidewalk. Mr Black helped him to his feet, and checked him over. He had grazed his knees, and elbows, and had a small cut on his thigh, but otherwise not too much damage. I looked a bit worried when Mr Black carried a banged up Caleb back into my room. He then laid him on my bed with the help of dad. He told us not to worry. Caleb had gotten too excited about seeing me again, that he ran off ahead. He was forgetting about his lack of strength, and he ended up in a heap on the sidewalk. Dad and I just laughed. Caleb gave us a sheepish smile. He seemed to have this knack of doing dumb stuff. But that was what made him so much fun. Mr Black then left after having made sure the boy was alright. We sat around talking about Caleb's day at school. It had been a pretty good one aside from not being able to get to classes very well. Dr Miller came in to see how he was going. Seeing the grazes on his knees and elbows the doctor realised that he still mustn't have all his strength back yet. Caleb told him about the problems he was still having, and the doctor just reassured him that he should be back to normal pretty soon. He also reminded him to take it easy, and make sure he didn't push things too far. The next time the damage could be a lot worse than a few grazes. Then he went out and came back with some disinfectant and a cloth to clean Caleb up. With Caleb's grazes cleaned up the doctor left again. He was replaced by a smiling happy little Maori boy. Dave had come to visit. He had wanted some time to enjoy our company before the interview. Caleb gave his friend a big hug once the boy was close enough for him to grab. He got hugged back in return from Dave who was still really happy that Caleb was completely alright aside from his fresh grazes, which Dave wanted to know about. Caleb told him how he got them, and Dave just laughed. Caleb was back to his old self again, the young boy thought to himself. Dave broke his hug with Caleb, and then came over to give me a hug, and a kiss. He then went back to Caleb's side and hopped into bed beside him. As much as I knew that Dave liked me just as much as Caleb. He always seems to lay by Caleb if he had the chance. I think he is still a little scared that Caleb will try to hide away from him again, so he doesn't want to let Caleb from his sight. Dad was outside the room talking with Dave's parents suggesting that maybe it would be best if Dave stayed the night. We could all be very exhausted after the interview. Dave's parents agreed that he was probably right. Dad told them he would get Dave to school for them, so that they didn't need to come back in the morning to pick him up. They then stood out there for a while talking about various things. Caleb decided he wanted to get under the sheets with me. He thought that he should remove his shoes first. So he pulled his leg up so that he could get to his shoe laces. It had the effect of exposing his package through the short leg in his shorts to Dave. He just giggled as he saw Caleb's package sitting there for all to see. Caleb looked at him confused as to why he had laughed until he looked down and saw his package hanging out from his scrunched up shorts. He just smiled at Dave then groped himself, causing Dave to laugh harder. I was wondering what was going on, so I looked over at them. Unfortunately I couldn't see what Dave could because of the way Caleb was sitting. But I knew what was going on all the same. Caleb finished untying the shoelace and removed the shoe and sock before throwing them on the ground. He then repositioned himself so he could get to his other shoe, and I finally got to see everything. I couldn't resist and reached out and grabbed his exposed package and fondled him for a bit. I must have done it a little too long though as he started to bar up. I removed my hand then but it was already too late as he had risen to his full three inches. I couldn't help it and laughed. I was getting a dirty look in return. Having finished untying his other shoe he quickly removed it and his other sock and they ended up on the ground with their partners. Caleb then dropped his legs, hiding his package back in his shorts, but creating a tent instead. That got Dave and me laughing again, and we both reached out and groped the boy through his shorts. That made him even harder and he was trying to give us both dirty looks. He quickly tried to cover up under the sheet when he heard the adults coming back into the room. The problem was, and Caleb didn't realise it at first, that the sheet was so thin and flimsy that didn't cover anything. It tented out in the same way as his shorts. Dave's parents were unsure of what to say when they came in. Dave and I were trying to supress our giggles, while Caleb was looking a little flustered. They could see a tent rising under the sheet around where Caleb's crotch would be. Both parents blushed, not knowing what to do. Caleb's dad on the other hand couldn't help but laugh. He knew nothing had gone on, aside from the other two obviously giving Caleb a hard time. At hearing Caleb's dad laugh at the situation it eased Dave's parent's concerns and they ended up giggling too. They informed their son that Caleb's dad would take him to school in the morning. Then they told all three of us to behave ourselves. It wouldn't be a good look for Caleb to be seen in that condition on TV. The three of us looked at them confused. Then we looked over at Caleb. Dave and I saw straight away what they had been referring too. Caleb was a little slower. He looked at them mortified when he realised that his three inch boner was creating a tent in the sheets, and that everyone could see it. He did his best to try and hide it by covering himself with his hands. Dave's parents gave us and hug, and their son a kiss too. They told Caleb not to worry, but he should try to get it sorted out before the media arrived. Then they left. Caleb got worried then as to what would happen if it didn't go down, and to make things worse J C turned up in their doorway. He was carrying a couple of plates of food, as he thought us boys would need a good feed before the interview. He looked a bit confused when he saw the third boy. Caleb and I explained to him that we wanted him here for the interview. J C said he had no problem with that, but he said that we should have let him know earlier so he could have fixed him up with some dinner too. "That's alright we can share," Caleb said seeing the size of the plates that J C had bought in for us. "You sure? I mean I can always go back and get another plate," J C said earnestly. He always liked to bring dinner for people who he was going to interview, and any extra's if the case called for it. It was just a little token of his appreciation for them talking with him. "Yeah we're sure. Thanks so much for the dinner. It has to be better than what we have been having," I said as I was getting real sick of hospital food. I know it's supposed to be good for you, but it always tastes so bland and boring. "Yeah, thank you. We wouldn't have offered to share our food if we hadn't meant it," Caleb reiterated. Even though he was now discharged from hospital he too was sick of the food, and this was his first proper meal since being discharged. He was really grateful that the reporter had thought about us. "Well you two never cease to amaze me. Even with what you've been through your still looking out for others," J C said sincerely. He had heard most of the story regarding us two boys, and yet we always seem to try to put others first. J C handed us the plates. He then disappeared for a couple of seconds, as he got a spare plate and some cutlery from the nurse's station so that Dave could have his own plate. By the time he got back he was starting to wonder whether it had been a waste of time. He saw Caleb give Dave a forkful of his food, then have one himself. I then gave the boy a forkful of my own food, and we continued taking turns. He offered us the plate and we took it. It was mainly because it was going to be easier. We divided up what was left of the lamb roast equally between the three plates. You could tell from looking at us that we were really enjoying the food. It wasn't as good as what dad cooks. But it was a huge improvement from what we had been eating. Before long all three plates were empty and we were full. We thanked the reporter again for such a nice dinner, but J C wouldn't have any of it. He told us that we had deserved it. Thankfully for Caleb with his mind being distracted his boner had long since disappeared and been forgotten about. J C talked with us for a while, while the casting crew set up everything in the room. They brought in a couple of lighting sets, as well as three cameras and a big microphone. They hooked everything up and tested the equipment. All was ready half an hour before we were supposed to go on air. While we were waiting we watched the final twenty five minutes of the news. We got to see the ad for the show we were going to be on, and we had to laugh at ourselves as we remembered the mess we had gotten ourselves into on that day. As the time drew closer we started to get really nervous. J C sensed this and tried to ease of fears. He did a really good job, but we were still nervous. I mean we were about to spill our guts to the world. With about five minutes till Showtime, all the crew set up in their positions. They did one final test of everything. Dave used this time to hop off the bed and stand over by dad. He thought that he wasn't important enough to be there for the whole thing. But really he was just too scared and used it as an excuse not to have to be there. Then time was up, and the lights came on. "Good evening and welcome to J C Live. Today we have a special broadcast live from the hospital, where I have two of the most lovely and courageous boy's with me. They are finally able to tell their side of their story," J C said as the show came live on air. "First up let me introduce them. Here we have Dan Webber the boy with the blood condition whom was so tragically beaten up by the relentless sea. Beside him we have Caleb Mc Cullum who is the one responsible for Dan still being alive today, although the events have taken their toll on him too." "Hello, I want to say one thing though before we start," Caleb said. His sweet angelic voice was wavering a little from nerves. "I want to inform you that this story is going to contain stuff about the love we have for each other. If you are offended with the idea or just plainly don't agree I want you to change the channel now. For those open minded enough to listen to what we have to say, then you will get a good understanding of our relationship together," Caleb said. He was a lot more confident at the end as his nerves faded away. Although he left me and J C completely gobsmacked at how he just revealed everything within the first minute of the show. I admired his courage and knew he was right. We had decided that we weren't going to keep our relationship secret, and he dealt with it the best way possible. He was trying to get the negative stereotypes to go away right from the start. J C quickly regained his composure. We spent the first five minutes just going over what our medical conditions were, and how they affected us living a normal life. Then we cut for an ad break. During the ad J C told Caleb how brave he was to say what he had said on national TV, and commended us both for deciding to share our relationship with everyone. Even the camera crew commented to us how brave we were to do that. It had Caleb and me totally full of confidence, but we knew the hardest part was still to come. We came back on air and J C asked us whether we were ready to tell the country our account of what had really happened on that fateful day. Here came the hard part. I gave Caleb a little nudge to let him know he was the best person for this part, and also to remind him that I was there for him. I was just hoping that Caleb was well enough for this. Especially after the last time he had told the story. I could just see that outside the room Dr Walker was there looking anxious and making preparations in case the worst case scenario happened, that made me feel even more nervous about Caleb's ability to handle this. Caleb started to tell the story. He began from when we had first paddled out into the waves on that dreadful day. He wanted everyone to know how quickly things had gone from being a great day, to the worst day in our lives. So he started with the fun we had been having out in the surf. He even described the thrill he was feeling when he finally managed to pull into a tube. As Caleb got more and more into the story his emotions started getting the better of him. He was crying heavily, and he was starting to shake. J C tried to get him to stop for an ad break so that he could calm down a bit, and to see whether he was up to continuing. But Caleb wouldn't stop for him. He had to tell it and there was no stopping him till he finished. I was hugging my boy, and crying myself, as he yet again relived that moment of his life. I could see everyone else in the room had to wipe the tears from their eyes. I have to say one thing about Caleb, and that is it doesn't matter how much it hurts him to tell the story he still tells it in full detail. He even gave graphic descriptions of what my wounds looked like when he pulled me from the water. Caleb eventually finished off with the rescue helicopter taking off. That was as far as he remembered, because not long after that he passed out. Having finished the first part of the story he collapsed into my arms, and buried his head into my chest and cried his heart out. J C quickly cut to a commercial break, and told them to make it an extended one. I just sat there cuddling my crying little angel for a while. He eventually turned his head and said. "Well at least I didn't kill myself telling it this time," and then he produced a weak smile. I smiled back just as weakly, but I was so glad he was coming round again. He then turned to J C and told him the only person who can tell him about the next stage of the story, is his father as Caleb was unconscious at this time. J C asked his father whether he would be willing to fill in the next stage, to which dad agreed. He did it mainly to give Caleb and me a bit more time to recuperate. When we returned to air J C introduced dad, and explained that he would take everyone through the next stage of the story. Dad did a good job with his part. He explained all the complications of my surgery, and also what had happened to his son. He even told everyone about his son's outbursts and how they had to sedate him in the end to get him home. Dad left it there and we cut for another break. It was Caleb's turn again when we came back. Everyone wanted to make sure that he was going to be all right before they continued. Caleb told them the next part was going to be relatively easy, as it was the first part that had always been the hardest for him. Caleb had got back in control of his emotions. He then started to tell the next stage in the story. He explained to everyone exactly how he felt after the sedative wore off. He told them about going to school, and of course about how he snuck into the isolation chamber and woke me from my coma. He then gave me a nudge to let me know it was now my turn. He had still been crying as he told his part. I was crying too, because this was the first time we were recalling the events from the start to the end. Usually we had been filling in the blanks, or just telling bits and pieces of it. I was really nervous as I took over, because up till now I had gotten away without having said anything with the cameras were rolling. I swallowed hard and recalled all the events from me waking up from my coma. For the most part this phase was easy, because there wasn't anything really drastic happen. That is until Caleb collapsed the day that Dave had come to visit. But just before I was going to start that part we decided to cut to another ad break. Caleb turned to me and asked whether I was going to be OK during the next part. I just told him that he had already done his hard work and survived so I think that I can too. J C encouraged us further by telling us how well we had done already. According to his manager they were already inundated with people e-mailing, or texting how much sympathy they had for what we had gone through, and how heart-warming our story was. People were genuinely happy to hear that people can have such a close connection. A lot of them wished that they could experience what we have for each other. The cameras started rolling again as the break came to an end. I then continued to tell them about how Caleb was telling his best friend Dave about what had happened. Then I started crying heavily. I was now reliving those really scary moments when Caleb deteriorated so suddenly right in front of our eyes. I could now feel how Caleb was, when his mind keeps replaying my tragedy over and over. Caleb instinctively hugged me seeing my pain. He was still crying, but this time because of the fright he had given us. I told them about the pain I felt. The agonizingly long wait to hear any information about him, and the eternity it took before I was allowed to see him. I also told them about how I was able to reciprocate what Caleb had done for me, when I brought him out of his coma. I also told them of Caleb's antics immediately afterwards, hearing Caleb giggle from embarrassment, as he tried to picture the scene. Then all that was left was to finish it to this point. I just told them about our antics in the hospital. Like going for walks and having to get helped back, because Caleb could no longer walk, and also about my rehab. At the story was done, and we stopped for another ad break. We told J C there were a few other things that we felt needed to be told. We asked him if he was happy for us to go ahead and do so. J C obliged as this was a story that had embraced a nation and anything extra that we had to add, would only help people to embrace us further. Caleb told Dave he needed to get on the bed as he was going to be involved in the next part. Dave just looked at the floor as he was desperately trying to find an excuse to get out of it. Caleb just told him that he would be fine. Caleb and I had got through it alright so he should have no problem. Dave swallowed hard and joined us on the bed. When the cameras started recording again Caleb started off by introducing his best friend. He then proceeded to tell everyone about the events that had happened at his previous school. He also named names mainly to shame his would be friends. He only used first names, but he still never thought about the potential consequences. He also told them how the brave little Maori boy sitting with them had stuck with him through thick and thin, even if he had tried to push him away to protect him. Then he let me take over as I brought up Chris, Tim and Luke and how great they have been during the whole encounter. Mr Black, Mrs Milner and even our principal got mentioned. We really used this time to thank everyone for their help and support, but we also did explain what these people had done and how they have been so important to us. Of course we also bought up mum and dad, as they had been through so much. For the most part they had stayed by our side and supported us. We then turned it back over to J C. J C asked us a few more questions, and then he thanked us for sharing everything. He said we were some of the bravest people that he had ever met. Not just because of what we have been through, but also how we have shared it with the nation, and yet we still didn't take any credit for the things we have done. That was very evident with the way we had thanked so many other people, and yet never thanked ourselves. With that it was all over. The crew started to pack up, but they all came over and shook our hands and told us what they thought, and then they were gone. Before J C left I told him he should talk to Dr Walker and see whether the doctor would give him a copy of his report. We thought it might make for some interesting reading for him, and also the nation if they were so inclined. He said he would. He stayed and talked some more, telling us how he really had felt and suggesting that we should probably watch tomorrows program. He had a feeling it would end up being dedicated to us, then he shook our hands and was gone. We were bushed, and dads said it was probably best if we get some sleep. He gave us our goodnight kiss, and cuddles and then went back to his hotel room. Once the adults had gone Dave cuddled into us and started to whimper. "What's up?" Caleb asked his friend as he held him tighter in the hug. He was concerned that he may have upset him by pretty much forcing him to be part of the interview. "I want to thank you for what you said about me. You made me out to be a much better person than I am?" Dave said still whimpering but I cut him off. "We did not make you out to be a better person than you are. We meant every single word that we said about you. You have been so strong and brave. You have also helped the both of us out during some really tough times. It is us who should be thanking you," I told Dave in the most meaningful voice and returned the hug he was still giving me. "Yeah Dave thank you for what you have done for us. I would never have made it this far if it wasn't for you," Caleb said in his sincere voice that sounded like that of an angel. "But? but? thank you for being so kind. I wish there was some way that I could show you how much you both mean to me. I really mean it. I could not bear the thought of losing you. I was really worried at one stage that I thought that I had lost you. I was so lost and I thought I was going to be sad forever," Dave admitted crying his eyes out now. Caleb and I looked completely shocked we had known that it hadn't been easy for our friends, but now knowing how much it had devastated Dave was completely overwhelming. We cuddled Dave and cried with him. Eventually we all settled down and lay there in silence for a while just letting the conversation sink in. Dave got up after a while and stripped off his clothes. He knew he was going to have to wear them again in the morning, so didn't want to sleep in them. Both Caleb and I took a good look at his cute 2 inch circumcised pecker and his small tight ball sack. Then he started to hop back into bed. Caleb mumbled something about being too tired to take off his clothes, so Dave stripped him too. He did so rather awkwardly, as he didn't have much experience in taking off someone else's clothes, but he got the job done. I got another good look at my lover's tiny little cock and small but plump ball sack before it was covered up again by the sheet. With that image in my head I fell asleep. It didn't take Caleb or Dave long before they followed me into the land of slumber. Caleb woke us up during the night when he screamed as a result of a nightmare. He woke up crying, as all the graphic images had been brought back to life from him having given his recollections of the events, during the interview. Dave and I comforted Caleb by hugging him. I stroked his back, and he was asleep again before we knew it. It had been his worst nightmare for a while, but he was obviously getting a lot better. Dave woke first. Even though the night before had been emotionally tough on him, it had been tougher on me and Caleb. He just lay there in silence contemplating what had been said to him the night before. He was so lost in his thoughts he didn't noticed when Caleb or I woke, neither of us said anything either as we were both lost in our own thoughts. "Dan? I need to tell you something," Caleb said finally breaking the silence. His words were really stuttered as if he was nervous about what he had to say. "What's up Caleb, you should know by now that you can tell me anything," I replied in a warm and comforting voice trying to make him feel at ease. "I don't know if I want to face up to school today? I'm really nervous after what we said on TV last night, and I am worried someone at school may not like me for it," Caleb continued. He was starting to cry at the realisation that we may have said too much during the interview. "Don't stress, Tim, Luke and Chris will look out for you. Of course the teachers will also help. Nothing will happen to you again, I can promise you that," I knew why he was nervous. The poor kid had been there before. At least this time he had a lot more support, as all our friends already knew and respected us for it. "Yeah I know your right, but I'm still nervous about it." "If I can face up to school then you can too. I mean you guys haven't really made it easy on me either, but I know you were meaning the best," Dave said. He made us realise that we might have got him into trouble with some of the kids at his school, because of what we said about him. "Shit I'm sorry Dave. I didn't think about that I hope you can forgive me," Caleb said in shock, at the realisation of what he had done. Dave never replied just gave Caleb a big hug which told him all he needed to know. Mr Black and dad entered at about the same time, which caused Dave and Caleb to panic at bit as they now realised how late it had gotten. Dave only had to get changed and put on his shoes, while Caleb had to find some clothes from his bag first. It was a funny sight, seeing the two cute naked boys rushing around trying to get ready. I was in heaven as I watched two sexy boys running around naked, especially knowing that I had one all to myself. Dave seemed to handle it well and was changed before I knew it. Caleb still struggling a bit through lack of coordination, managed to fall over while trying to put some red briefs on. Mr Black thankfully managed to catch him before he ended up face first on the ground. He then stood Caleb up and pulled his underwear up for him. He then grabbed the grey knee length surf shorts off the ground and stretched them open so that Caleb, with his hands holding the man's shoulders for support, could lift his legs up and step into them. Once his feet and legs were in the right holes Mr Black pulled his shorts up and tried to do it up for Caleb. Caleb then picked up an orange and white checked cotton short sleeved shirt threw it over his shoulders, and then treaded his arms through the arm holes. He raced over to his school bag and threw that over his right shoulder. He then came over and gave me a kiss and a cuddle while trying to button up his shirt, before heading out with Mr Black. Dave and dad had gone at this stage, and I was all alone. I was alone for all of ten seconds before Caleb rushed back in. He had forgotten his shoes and socks, and of course before he left again he had to give me another kiss. I was a bit worried watching him head off again because he looked at bit weak at the knees. If it wasn't for Mr Black, yet again, Caleb would have crashed to the ground not long after leaving the room. I was starting to wonder whether he was pushing himself too hard, and not allowing his body to fully recuperate. I knew that Caleb wouldn't listen if anything was said about it. That boy doesn't like anything to stop him especially not his body. That was what worried me most though because if his body didn't improve as he wanted it to, then I could see him getting very frustrated and doing things that he might regret. So I figured I better at least try to get him to settle down a bit. Even if he doesn't listen it would still give me peace of mind. Mr Black had taken into account how late we were last night because of the interview, and also that Caleb may still be a little tired because of it. So he had made sure he had everything ready before picking up Caleb. He had loaded the boy's lunch, along with some breakfast into the helicopter and had also made sure the pilot had everything ready for an immediate take off when he got back. It was because of his forethought Caleb managed to be on time to school, well he managed to get there with about ten minutes to go before the bell rang. During the flight Caleb had his breakfast. Mr Black had re-buttoned up Caleb's shirt, because in Caleb's rush he had managed to miss the first button hole. The man also zipped up the zip in the boy's shorts which he had noticed was undone. Mr Black also did his best to tidy up Caleb's hair as he didn't have enough time for a shower. The end result was Caleb looking pretty tidy, a good result given the circumstances. The crowd of children that had gathered when the helicopter landed was about the same size as yesterday. Even as they were landing they noticed there was a different vibe in the air compared to the previous day. The crowd seemed to be anxiously waiting, but excited knowing who was on the copter. As soon as the door slid open Caleb was greeted by a cheer from the gathered crowd. Getting off the copter Caleb was swamped with kids crying and trying to hug him. As they told him how brave he was, and how they were sad with what he had gone through. Caleb was surprised by the reaction and didn't know what to do. He had prepared himself for totally the opposite, and really didn't know how to handle this situation. Thankfully his friends realised his dilemma and managed to save Caleb from the crowd, while joking that it looked like he was a celebrity now. Once clear of the crowd his friends told him how grateful they were for the nice things that we had said about them. Caleb just shrugged it off and said that we had only told the truth. Without the support we had from them and Dave, he probably wouldn't be here talking to them today. They gave him a big hug. Then they told him that it was going to be Chris and Tim who look after him today. Tomorrow will be Tim and Luke. Caleb started to protest saying he didn't want to get them into trouble for being late. He was quickly shut down as they said the teachers are very understanding when someone is looking after a cripple. The comment caused Caleb to laugh and everyone else followed suit. Then of course the dreaded bell rung and they were still on the far side of the courtyard. It looked like everyone, Caleb included, was going to be late for their first class. The day went much like the first. Caleb tried to do as much as he could on his own. This was the major problem because he kept running out of energy and collapsing into one of his friends arms. Then as a result he had to be carried to class by his friends. His friends didn't say anything about it but they were concerned that he was pushing himself too far and too soon. They knew that he wouldn't listen to them so they had to try to find a way to tell me, and see if I could get through to the boy. They did admire his determination though. But his health didn't seem to be improving as quickly now which is what concerned them the most. I was alone for quite a while. I was really wishing now that Dave and I hadn't talked Caleb into going to school today. Dad had been away awhile. He had somehow managed to find time to get Dave in for a shower, as he got him some lunch before dropping him off to school. Then he got himself some breakfast before cleaning himself up and returning. My day was pretty boring. I enjoyed the company from my adopted dad but it wasn't enough as I needed to be with Caleb. When I'm with him it's almost like I forget about everything else. All my stress is gone and I feel happy all the time. I tried really hard during my rehab again, and I am improving in leaps and bounds. Especially when compared to Caleb, I seem to be improving much better. I don't do much in between rehab sessions so my body has a long time to recoup so I shouldn't give Caleb too much flack. I got a big surprise when J C came in during the early afternoon. He gave me a brief insight as to what the feedback we had been getting was like. Surprisingly most of it was positive. It seemed as if Caleb's little disclaimer at the start of the show had worked, and most of the negative people had turned the program off. J C also explained to me that we were going to have a little bit more time on TV. He went through what was going to happen today. Dad, who was by my side, had the same look of shock and awe as I did, as the reporter told us what was going to happen. Once he finished he again thanked me for last night and then left. "I think this is going to down about as well as the Titanic," I said to dad after the reporter had gone. Dad just nodded in agreement, then said that he had better make some calls. The school day was done. Tim and Chris carried a completely knackered Caleb out to the waiting helicopter, with Luke in tow. The boys' parents had agreed with them going for a ride to see me again. They were all giggling with excitement, just like little school girls. They helped Caleb into the helicopter and sat him down. Then they clambered in and took a seat for themselves and buckled up. Mr Black welcomed them and told them to help themselves to the mini bar, which he had restocked so there were no alcoholic drinks in it. The boys' all grabbed a bottle of fizzy from the fridge, and enjoyed the refreshingly cold liquid as they poured it down their throats. Once the flight was underway Caleb undid his shorts and slid them down his legs. Only Chris really took much notice as to what Caleb was doing. Chris just couldn't stop staring, especially when the sexy boy then pulled off those red briefs that he was wearing. "I hate having to wear these," Caleb said out loud with a devilish grin on his face. Chris gulped at seeing Caleb naked from the waist down again. He would have done the same if he didn't have a boner in his pants. The other two boys pretty much ignored what Caleb was doing as they were enjoying the spectacular scenery passing them by. It is such a unique perspective when viewing something familiar from a different angle, such as one created by a helicopter in flight. "Well come on, I can see you want to take yours off too," Caleb said in the most teasing voice to Chris, who was still staring at Caleb's package. Caleb gave his prick a couple of tugs to tease the boy, but the result wasn't quite as he expected. His pecker decided that it would grow on him to its full 3 inches. That caused Chris to gasp at the sight. He couldn't believe Caleb had grown so much as when he is soft he was really small. Seeing Caleb's boner he decided what the hell, and slipped his dirty blue denim jeans down his legs, then removed his tented black boxer shorts exposing his 2 ? erection to Caleb. It was Caleb's turn to stare as he took in the sight of Chris's boyhood. His foreskin was pulled right back as a result of his erection, exposing his glistening pink glands. His sack hung quite low under his engorged cock and his balls where a decent size too. Caleb wondered as to whether he could cum yet, but shook the thought from his head as Dan entered his mind. He sighed and put his shorts back on and did them up. He disappointed Chris as he covered his pride and joy. Knowing that things weren't going to go any further Chris also pulled up his jeans, taking care as he zipped up to make sure his boner wasn't in the way. Before long the ride was over and they were in Mr Black's car on the way back to the hospital. Caleb was a bit surprised as he walked back to our room as there was already a little gathering of people who he hadn't expected. Dave was there straight from school, with his parents, and Dan's mum was also there. He just shrugged it off as nothing and walked into the room so he could hop back in bed with me and give me a hug. Caleb stopped dead as he entered the room. J C was there with his camera crew all set up. Tim, Luke and Chris also had a surprised look on their faces as they weren't expecting anything, other than being able to catch up with their friend. "What going on, I thought we had finished our interview," Caleb stammered as he really didn't want another night of talking on TV. "Don't worry this won't be anywhere as long as last night, but I'm not going to tell you what happening. As you will find out soon enough," J C said. Caleb just shrugged and jumped into bed with me giving me a huge hug. He managed to sneak a quick peck on the lips in too. Tim, Luke and Chris also came over giving me a hug each. Then we just talked rubbish for a while enjoying the company of each other. We were trying our best to ignore what was going on around us, but it came to an end after about quarter of an hour when J C interrupted us to tell us they were nearly ready. J C tried to usher our friends to the side of the room, but Caleb protested and told him that he wanted the reporter to introduce them. He then realised that he should probably introduce them to the reporter first. After introducing them J C suddenly realised why Caleb had become so defensive and agreed that he would introduce them, as he felt that it was the right thing to do. Caleb also told him that he wanted them as well as Dave beside the bed. J C couldn't believe it. He was negotiating, well not even that, he was getting told what to do by an eleven year old. But there was no way he was going to argue with the boy because he was the reason that they were here. So Caleb organised our friends so there were two on each side of the bed. But he still wasn't happy. He told his dad plus my mum that they had to join the scene and be introduced to the country, well it was only mum that had to be introduced. But Caleb thought it best if everyone got introduced at the start just encase there were some new people watching who hadn't seen last night's program. J C just stood back in admiration at how Caleb directed things. He even organised the cameramen to positions that he thought were better. He could make a great director he thought. Once Caleb had decided that he was happy he let J C take over, and the show started. J C introduced the viewers to the program before he reintroduced Caleb and me. Then he introduced our friends and parents. He then gave a brief recap of why he was here and what we had gone through, and then he said, "Due to what Caleb has achieved I would like to welcome the Prime Minister of New Zealand to the show, for what is one of the most deserved occasions I have been involved in." The Prime Minister then came in, with personal protection officers flanking him on each side. They were all dressed in black suits with white collared shirts under their suit jackets. Only the Prime Minister was wearing a tie, which was a blue and white striped one. His protection took their places at each side of the doorway, while the Prime Minister came right into the room and stood in front of our bed. He stood at a slight angle so that the cameras could see him properly. We just stared in awe. None of us could believe that the Prime Minister would take time out of his busy schedule to see us. J C had told me what was going on, but had not made any mention of our distinguished guest. It made me even more interested as to what was going to happen. I had to try to contain my grin at the thought. The Prime Minister started giving his speech about why he was there. I don't think any of us really heard what he was saying, as we were too much in shock at him even being here. He was explaining about how due to the majority of the country asking for it, he had decided that he should award a medal for bravery to Caleb. Caleb didn't react at first. It took a little time for what the Prime Minister had said to sink in. When it did he just looked bewildered and confused, but he did get up off the bed on request and stood beside the dignitary. I could tell something was brewing inside him as he started to really comprehend what was happening. "No, I'm sorry but I can't accept this," Caleb stated bluntly getting a reaction of shock from everyone in the room, well everyone but me. I had sort of expected this. "I can't accept this because I'm not brave. All I did was pull my boyfriend out of the water and apply basic first aid. If you are going to award this to anyone it should be my friends, as we scared the shit?oops sorry? we scared them so much you wouldn't believe. But yet they still got up every morning and went to school, even though they were going through hell because of Dan and me. Then there is my dad and Dan's mum who have been here every day. Not knowing what was going to happen. They still kept a brave face and reassured us that the other one was going to be fine. What about all the other parents in the hospital, they are braver than me. They sit beside their kids and act like everything is going to be fine, when in some cases they don't even know whether their child will even make it through the night. Then there is the hospital staff, that come to work every day knowing that someone is likely to die under their care. But yet they still believe they can make a difference. Then there are the firemen or the policemen. I could go on forever saying who deserves it more than me. All I did was pull my boyfriend from the water. Surely it is something that anyone would have done under the circumstances. That is why I won't accept it." Caleb was crying hard by the end of his non-acceptance speech. He thoroughly believed that what he had done wasn't at all that special. He really thought there were other people much more deserving than him. His speech had its effect on everyone, as tears could be seen rolling down the cheeks of everyone in the room. The Prime Minister didn't know what to do and stood there in shock. Even I, who had expected this reaction, was crying. He had made me look at everyone in a totally different light. I never would have thought of all the things that he had. I was also very proud of him for doing that. "Wow, I never expected that. Well what do you think I should do with this medal then?" the Prime Minister asked tentatively once he finally snapped back to reality. "I want Dave to have it. Because he wanted to stay my friend even if it meant that he could get beaten up for it. He also he witnessed me collapse when my heart played up. He has been through hell far too much as a result of everything that I have been through. So I think he deserves it more than me," Caleb said still crying. He looking directly at Dave, and his angelic voice was so sincere that I don't think Dave could reject his offer. He gave me a quick look to say he was sorry. I didn't really understand what he was sorry about. The Prime Minister listened to Caleb's wish, and he walked over to where Dave was standing and draped the medal around the boy's neck. He then stood back and shook his hand. He then shook the hands of all our friends, and then shook my hand and gave me a little hug. When he got back to Caleb he embraced him in a huge hug and whispered something to him, which made him look at the dignitary in disbelief. Then he released him from the hug and gave him a good hand shake, before he said goodbye and left in a hurry for his next appointment. J C finished off the recording by saying how what had happened was just extraordinary, as he had never seen such an act before in his life. He finished off with telling the country what a special boy he was, and what a super group of friends he had. Then the cameras shut off. J C and the cameramen came over and congratulated Caleb on his speech. All of them said that they hadn't looked at things that way. All of them did stress however that what Caleb had done was not something that the average human would have done for anyone. Then they packed up and left, saying that we really should watch the program tonight as he had just made things even more interesting. Once they had left our friends swamped Caleb telling him how proud they were of him. Although they were a little jealous that he chose Dave. Caleb just replied that it was because Dave had known him a lot longer, and the main reason he gave it to him was because of the way he tried to stick by him at his old school. They never needed the explanation as they had heard how great the boy had also been during our interview the day before. Dave just hit Caleb saying that he didn't deserve it, but that Caleb did. Caleb wouldn't listen he just hugged the boy and told him thank you. Dave stopped pouting and hugged back, he knew his friend would never take what was rightfully his, back. He also really loved wearing it. Unfortunately Tim, Luke and Chris had to leave not long after the TV crew had gone. Their parents had turned up just in time to see Caleb's speech. They congratulated Caleb for telling things like they should be, but also told him that he thoroughly deserved the medal. It all fell on deaf ears. Unfortunately they had to get home so they could get dinner on, so they took their son's and left. Dave's parents also thought it was time to take their son home, but Dave was a lot less willing to leave than the rest of our friends. Dave's parents were pretty lax with discipline which is why Dave was reluctant to go because he thought that if he tried hard enough they would give up. Pity for him as this time they didn't, they both grabbed an arm and dragged him away, after of course they said their thing to Caleb and me. Dave realising there wasn't any point in resisting just started to follow them dragging his feet, but he made sure to give us a kiss and a cuddle before leaving. Mum and dad told us that they were going out for dinner. So dad gave Caleb $50 to get something for tea, and then left without saying anything about the events that had just happened, closing the door behind him. We were all alone again, Caleb was still standing there. His legs were now starting to shake so before they gave out on him he hopped back into bed with me. I quickly embraced him in a warm comforting hug and kissed him like a wild animal. I let one hand slowly stroke his chest above his shirt. I slowly let my hand slip lower till I got to the bottom of his shirt. I then slipped my hand back up underneath it so that I was stroking his bare chest. I heard him gasp at the touch. "I'm so proud of you," I said, temporarily breaking the kiss. I slipped my hand back down his smooth hairless chest, and then slipped it through the waist of his pants till I found his boyhood. I was a bit surprised that he didn't have underwear on though. "Why? Ohhhh!" Caleb asked. He then felt my hand touch his crotch, so he let out a loud moan. "Because of how unselfish you are. I mean you just got presented with something that most people would never see, and yet you turned it down, and then gave it to your best friend," I said stroking his quickly hardening cock. Caleb was so lost in the feelings that he just shrugged his shoulders to suggest that it was no big deal. Now with his pecker at its full three inches I started to stroke him. We were suddenly interrupted so I had to quickly pull my hand from his pants. That made him gasp again, mostly in disappointment, but also from the feelings I accidently inflicted on him, as my hand quickly brushed along the length of his erection as I withdrew it from his pants. Four waiters each wearing black dress pants, white collared shirt, and a black sleeveless vest. Complete with a black bow tie. They had opened the door and entered the room. I thanked god they had knocked or we would have been rather embarrassed. As it was I think one of the waiters knew, he had that sort of look on his face, but he never said anything. I think my face looked a bit flustered. I knew Caleb's face had a bit of a disappointed look to it, but thankfully his shorts were baggy enough to hide his erection. Each waiter was carrying two massive plates, each covered with a stainless steel bowl to keep the food hot. They came in and put the food down wherever they could find space, and then one of the waiters handed us a card. They all told us to enjoy, before they all turned around and headed away. It turned out that Caleb's dad needn't have bothered leaving his son money for tea, as J C had looked after us again. He had ordered a five star meal from a top local restaurant. They had gratefully delivered it to us, when he had said who it was for. Reading the card we had been given, it told us what was in the meal, and also that we had a complimentary meal on the manager, to be used as soon as I am discharged from hospital. The manager really wanted to meet us in person so he had decided to give us a free meal. The offer also extended to mum and dad. Caleb of course was a given. The meal was massive as J C hadn't scrimped on anything. The manager of the restaurant had also chucked in some free stuff after having hearing our story on TV last night. As it was getting on towards 7:00 we turned on the TV and turned it to the right channel for J C live. We then enjoyed our exquisite meal as we watched the end of the news. ************ Comments are always welcome at (pennywise3636@gmail.com). Please keep all comments clean.
