A Neglected Boy    "The Twins" XL
jacoblion@tutanota.com

   Jake and I were almost laughing at this point but could understand
Ethan's frustrations with the rug-rats.  Sometimes teen boys need a little
space and privacy; now finding any space with two little imps like Kyle and
Justin is difficult at anytime and nearly impossible on the boat.

   Usually Jake and I would be awakened sometime in the night with either
or both of our cute little rascals as they climb in the middle of the bed
and need to be hugged; and if this was not what happened then for sure they
would have climbed in bed with Ethan.  Morning came with no sound, no
rug-rats between Jake and I and as I peeked out at Ethan no rug-rats with
him either.  Hmmmm, interesting situation.

   I gently shook Jake who was sound asleep and judging by his twitching he
must have been having an active dream.  Jake turned and smiled and said
. . . . "I was having one of the best dreams about the farm with you, Liam,
and Ning and how silly you were when we were at the pond." . . . . Jake
looked at the clock it was already 9:15.  I motioned to be very quiet and
listen.  We remained motionless and there was not a sound.  Jake finally
realized that Kyle and Justin were not in bed and I whispered that they
were not with Ethan either.

   Funny how something so simple as Justin and Kyle not in their usual
places in the morning with either Jake and me or with Ethan could have
caused so much concern.  I took it that the rug-rats were in their cabin
bunks sleeping because they were tired from all the swimming yesterday;
Jake took it that something was wrong and immediately, and not so quiet,
abruptly opened our cabin door stormed across the galley through the salon
pass the forward head (toilet) and tore open the forward cabin door.

   Jake stood motionless looking at "The Twins" bunk ................ there
all cuddled up with their arms wrapped around each other were Justin and
Kyle sound asleep.  Two days of diving, swimming, playing keep away with
the beach ball, walking the beach in fresh air looking for little treasures
had Kyle, Justin, and Ethan exhausted.  Jake closed their cabin door
without a sound and he and I went up on deck to see what the day looked
like.

   Jake has an incredible sense of smell and it was the aroma of fresh
coffee that said Ethan was up, awake, that is.  He was in the galley and
getting ready to make breakfast when I stepped in and said . . . . "Morning
Ethan today I'll make the breakfast why don't you grab a quick shower after
a sticky nights sleep." . . . . Ethan gave me and Jake that shy, slightly
guilty look that boys sometimes have after a little workout; plus, there
was a slightly alkaline pH ammonia smell in the salon.

   Ethan smiled and just said . . . . "Thanks Kori it was warm last night
and I do feel a little sticky." ........  as he grabbed his towel and
headed up on deck for a morning freshwater shower.  Jake looked at me and
said . . . . "Kori I don't know what you remember but I remember a number
of mornings when you were Ethan's age, and younger, that mornings were both
warm and sticky." .......  I think I turned a little red because I remember
lots of mornings like that especially when Peter slept over.

   I opened a package of thin applewood bacon and lined a medium hot pan
and soon the entire boat below decks had the aroma of fresh coffee and
delicious bacon.  Ethan had finished his shower and was descending the
ladder to the salon just as Kyle and Justin were coming from their cabin.

   Those sweet little Asian boys were all smiles and their mouths were in
high gear as they were telling us all about their dreams n how hungry they
were n what were we going to do today n they wanted to go snorkeling at
Grace Cove n could we eat at Beachhead Restaurant tonight ....  Oh and then
they even said good morning to Ethan, Jake and me. .... Then they said
. . . . "I'm hungry in stereo." .....  What's so funny is that Justin and
Kyle get so wound up that they will run everything together with their
Korean accent and sometimes we have to really think about what they said.

   Rug-rats were already dressed in Underoos, surprising, and were at the
table pouring and half spilling OJ.  Ethan tried to help ...... wrong move
...... "Were not 4 you know we can pour the juice n don't need you to
help." . . . .  Kyle was just a little testy this morning.  Justin was now
up and making toast and I had a nice large cheese omelet on the other
burner.  Things simmered down and we all enjoyed breakfast together and
talked about the day.  Ethan's phone buzzed. ................. Ethan looked
at the phone and asked to be excused ...... we don't allow phones at the
table.

   We all like Grace Cove for the snorkeling, swimming, finding treasures
and tanning so that was the plan for the day.  Ethan returned and asked
. . . . "You know the busboy last night, Keith, we've been talking and he's
like my friend, well, he has today and tomorrow off would it be Ok if he
joined us for the day?" . . . .  I really just wanted to interrupt him but
thought to let him finish and then I said . . . .  "It's Ok with me if it's
Ok with Jake, Kyle and Justin."  ...................

   Jake immediately said sure we would love to have Keith come along; then
it was the rug-rats .............. those damn 2 little brats they just
looked at Ethan and giggled ...... it was a little tease on their part till
Ethan said . . . . "If Keith is with us, we can have a war in the water and
you guys can be up on Keith's shoulders and mine n see who can pull which
team over first." . . . . that did it and the rug-rat brats were all in for
water games and now were excited to have Keith along.  Ethan said
. . . . "Thanks, Keith will have the Yacht Club launch bring him over in 30
minutes.

   Jake looked at me and said . . . . "Kori I'm going to have a little chat
with our two amazing cherubs so they understand the rules like Speedos on
not off." ...... Ethan heard and had a big smile and asked if he was
included in that rule, cheeky little bugger he is.  Now Kyle and Justin
were their usual selves and chatting and fooling around so they never heard
a word that Jake said.  I tapped Ethan on the shoulder and pointed to the
deck and Ethan and I made Jabbering ready to sail and Ethan waited eagerly
for Keith to arrive.

   It was 30 minutes like to the second when Ethan spotted the Yacht Club
launch approaching.  OMG the smile Ethan had! ... Ok, ... OMG the smile
Keith had and was this boy ever a looker.  Neither Jake nor I paid much
attention to Keith last night but, I mean Keith is, WOW, handsome, cute and
blond hair and beautiful deep blue eyes.  Just as Keith was stepping aboard
Jake, Kyle, and Justin stepped into the cockpit from below.  Jake took one
look at Keith with that open blue shirt and his face smiled ear to ear.

   Ethan introduced Keith to everyone and he has that personality that says
"We all had known him for years" it was just the way he was and we all took
to him immediately.  Jabbering was ready so it was start the engine, up
anchor, pull fenders on deck and head for Salt Pond then out to Block
Island Sound.  The big surprise was that Keith had been sailing since he
was very little and didn't even have to be asked to do anything he just was
right there when we raised the main sail and tightened the sheet.

   I handed the helm to Ethan and that gave Keith and Ethan the opportunity
to stand together and talk while Jake and I got out all the snorkels, fins,
and float for our adventure at Grace Cove.  Jake and I thought it would be
a very interesting adventure.  Now I distinctly remember Jake having said
he was going to talk to and set the rules for Kyle and Justin and about
Speedos on .... Right? .... Well the rug-rats interpreted that to mean
while getting underway from Cormorant Cove and Great Salt Pond but not once
out on the sound.

   Jake and I were sitting behind Ethan and Keith at the helm when Justin
and Kyle came up the ladder from the salon full speed and into the cockpit
in their best nothing swimsuits with little things flopping around.  Keith
and Ethan were laughing Jake was embarrassed looked at the rug-rats
hollered . . . . "STOP!" . . . . and pointed to the companionway.  Kyle and
Justin actually looked confused and almost started to cry because Jake was
loud and sounded very angry.  Keith turned and said . . . . "It's Ok with
me my nephews are like that all the time.

   The rug-rats were saved by this new friend Keith, ... Jake calmed down
as Ethan explained that it was nearly impossible to get Justin and Kyle to
keep swimsuits on.  Now can things get better or worse at this point is
what I was thinking and things just got better, I think, when Keith said to
Ethan . . . . "Yeah I hate having a swimsuit on too; I'd rather go skinny
dipping but I wore these swim shorts today because I just met you and
didn't want you to think I was some kind of weirdo."  Jake and I laughed
even though we didn't hear everything but Ethan had this smile that said
everything would be just fine.

   Jake and I talked to the rug-rats a little and said perhaps for today
and with Keith as our guest for the first time maybe Speedos or their
Island shorts would be good.  Justin and Kyle were smiling and ran off and
quickly returned with Island Shorts so now all 6 of us looked like we had
just arrived from Hawaii.  I took the helm and Keith and Ethan walked
forward to get the anchor ready and then just sit and talk on the deck.
Jake grabbed Kyle and Justin to help get the float inflated and give the
other 2 boys a little privacy.

   We were soon in sight of Grace Cove but today we had nice rolling waves
coming ashore so I decided it would be best to set two anchors.  With the
boat secured we headed for shore and was ready for some snorkeling.  Keith
said this was his favorite beach because there were some great hidden spots
for getting a nice allover tan and Ethan immediately was interested in
those locations.  The water was perfect, very clear and there were
beautiful fish all around.  We pulled the float up on the beach and the
next thing we heard from the rug-rats was . . . . "War, let's fight Ethan
you promised." . . . .

   Kyle grabbed Ethan's hand and Justin had a death grip on Keith as they
were tugging them back into the water.  Jake and I took a short walk
looking for little treasures while the boys looking like some chess figures
tried to pull their opponent off balance.  We found a large rock and sat
watching the game and laughed and remembered the times with Liam, Ning,
Garret, and Riku up at the pond.  The boys must have tired because soon
they were all running toward Jake and I with the rug-rats calling out
....... "We're hungry" .... Yep and it's good we packed a ton of food to
feed this army.

   We went to the float and rolled out a 4x6 foot sand mat opened the
chips, dip, peanut butter and jelly sandwiches, hardboiled eggs, and half
frozen water.  After our snack, not a lunch just a snack, we played hangman
in the sand.  The sun, surf, and breeze were perfect and Kyle, and Justin
decided it was the best time to burry Jake and I.  With the help of Ethan
and Keith they dug what looked much like Halloween graves that Jake and I
had to lie in, it felt very nice and cool, as the 4 boys began to pile sand
and more sand, and lots more sand on us; to be honest it was fun.

   Jake and I were buried and the rug-rats danced and chanted that they
killed the pirates while Keith and Ethan ran for a quick dip to rinse off
all the sand.  Our little imps finally released Jake and I and we all
decided that it was time for some snorkeling.  Jake spotted a sea turtle
and we all noticed what appeared to be a large number of star fish all in
one area.  There was a little more of the rug-rats riding up on shoulders
and Justin has taken to Keith and they seem to have become best buddies.

   We were getting tired so we walked up on the beach and the sun felt good
warm and inviting so we all stretched out on the beach for a little tan
time.  I think we were stretched out for about 10 minutes when we heard a
voice right above us saying . . . . "Keith, hey Keith." . . . . I guess we
all opened our eyes at the same time to find this really cute boy with
curly hair standing at Keith's head looking straight down into Keith's
face.  As it turned out it was one of Keith's friends that comes over to
Grace Cove beach all the time.

   Keith introduced his friend Kris to all of us and said that Kris works
at Beachead Restaurant too.  Now the situation was getting very
interesting. Ethan was looking at Keith then at Kris, Kris was looking at
Keith then at Ethan, Keith was just slightly turning pink and it wasn't
from the sun as he was looking first at Kris then at Ethan.  Jake and I
were starting to put things together but did Jake and I have it figured out
right?

   Keith finally asked . . . . "Kris how did you get here?" . . . . well,
it seems that one of his friends dropped him off and Kris was going to walk
back or hitch a ride ......... then came a real surprise ...... Jake No!
... But it was too late .......... Before anyone knew what was happening
Jake in his kindhearted way just said . . . . "Oh, Kris you can come back
with us we've got plenty of room on the boat and your welcome to stay for
dinner."  The rug-rats were excited saying it was going to be a big party
. . . . the expression on Ethan's face was like ...  Geezzz! Jake, this was
like my time with Keith, you know the boy I like, now I have to share him
with this intruder.

   Not a second later Kris had accepted and worse, very much worse he
hugged Keith; now if looks could kill then the way Ethan was looking at
Kris there would be a burial any minute.  I broke things up and said we all
need to go for a quick swim but Keith jumped in with ..........

   "Wait ...... I need to explain.  Kris and I are friends we're just good
friends and Kris has a real good friend you know just like Ethan is my
friend." ......  Now the rug-rats are standing in the middle of this
triangle surrounded by Ethan, Keith, and Kris and their heads are going
back-n-forth like watching a tennis match and they were really confused and
it really didn't matter anyway because they just wanted to get back in the
water for War Games.

   Ethan's face changed and he and Keith, and Kris all had big smiles and
it looked like everything was all good for now.  Kris ran to get his gear
and then joined us in the water as he had not been swimming because he
never swims alone.  Then we noticed the beach was empty and the rug-rats
not being shy had already thrown their Island Shorts in the float; Keith
looked at Ethan and Kris and then Keith asked if it was Ok, Jake and I
nodded yes and well, the rug-rats had company and when in Rome do as Romans
do.

   All Justin and Kyle could think about was some kind of naked evil
Olympic style war game where they would try to drag their opponent off
balance ... off shoulders and dunk the loser.  Kyle was up on Ethan's
shoulders and Justin was on Keith's shoulders and Jake, Kris, and I were
laughing and taking photos of the dramatic war like event.  Justin was
dunked first then Kyle and then Ethan looked at Kris and ....... no, no, no
....... Oh, yes I was elected to have Kris up on my shoulders; this was not
a good idea!

   Jake looked at me with a devious smile and gave me thumbs up and said
. . . . "Good luck I know it's going to be a `hard' fight." . . . .
Justin, Kyle, Ethan, and Keith were cheering me and Kris on to let's get
going.  I looked at Kris and suggested he should probably have his swim
shorts on but he just said . . . . "Nah, Kori I'm fine like this plus they
don't have any on."

   Kris was standing almost chest deep when I dove between his legs and
picked him up but before Kris and I could really get our balance Kyle and
Ethan had us off balance and we were both under water.  We claimed "Not
Fair" and everyone agreed to let us get out balance.  Once again, I dove
between Kris's legs and had him on my shoulders, now we were standing
solid.  Jake was smiling and snapping one photo after another and I think
he got some video too and I'm not sure we can show it to our friends.

   Now Kris, 15, is the smallest of the 3 teens in more than just his
height.  He is perhaps a grower not a shower and now as we have our
balance, I think he is slightly larger in that area than when I first
picked him up.  It was all out war as Kris and I attacked both Kyle and
Justin and tried to pull them over.  Justin and Keith and Kyle and Ethan
ganged up on Kris and I and again we found ourselves under water.  Quickly
I was lifting Kris on my shoulders and we were now solid standing our
ground.

   I realized that the friction of Kris on my shoulders and against the
back of my neck had created much more than just being slightly puffed up
for both of us.  I'm thinking Kris is about 5 inches hard and of course big
mouth Kyle had to announce to everyone that Kris had a stiffy.  From Kris's
point of view, he simply pointed out that he was not alone.  Now with
everyone laughing including Jake it was our turn and we lunged at both
Justin and Keith and Kyle and Ethan and had them all underwater; Kris and I
were the victors!

   The game was over and `things' were deflated and we decided it was time
to head for Cormorant Cove and dinner.  We were back on Jabbering and
everyone quickly rinsed off with freshwater and were back in swim shorts
even the rug-rats, after complaining that is.  The sail back was just
perfect and we had one laugh after another as we looked at the photos that
Jake took.

   We decided it was a great night for burgers on the charcoal grill with
all the fixings including potato salad as well as a tossed green salad with
an Italian dressing made with anchovies.  Everyone really liked the Italian
dressing; Jake and I just didn't tell them it was made with anchovies.  We
called for the launch to pick Kris up at 9 and played Monopoly until it
arrived.  Kris thought Keith was going ashore with him but Keith had been
invited to spend the night.  The look on Kris's face was quite interesting.

   Time passed quickly and it was about 10:30 when we were ready for bed.
Tonight, sleeping arrangements were changed slightly with Keith staying
over.  Rug-rats got to sleep in the big bed in the salon and Ethan and
Keith got the forward cabin as it is a large V twin birth or queen bed
depending how it is set up.  Keith and Ethan decided to have the forward
cabin as ...............
