I simply went to bed and made sure my door was closed and locked this time. I waited for 11 oclock to roll around but wasn't really expecting Karl to message me. Saturday morning and I had set my phone to give me some extra time to make it from the frat over to the dorm to meet Gordon for our jogging. We made our rounds and then I made my way back to the frat to change and then I texted Karl to call me when he woke up. I headed to the cafeteria to get some breakfast and waited there for Karl to call me. About an hour later my phone rang. "I'm up love." "What do you feel like for breakfast?" "Just hot tea and maybe some dry toast is all." "I'll be there in a few." I got the food and headed across the quad and up to Karls room. I knocked on the door and he opened it just enough to get his food. "I've got no plans love so I'll be around here if you need anything." "It looks like it's going to be a beautiful day. Don't waste it hanging around here much as I appreciate the thought." "There'll be plenty of beautiful days love. I can give up a couple of them for you. Hell how many days did you spend at the hospital for me?" "More than I want to count Den." "There you go. I won't be far away. You feeling any better?" "Yeah a little. Let me see if I can keep this down and I'll call you later about lunch." "Ok lover. I'll be around." Karl closed his door and I headed for the day room. I had brought a couple of my text books with me so I just sat there and got a bit ahead on my reading. I don't know how much of it really stuck but I covered it anyway. Pretty soon the place got too loud to really concentrate at all so I just headed outside and found a shady spot. I really wasn't paying attention to anything as the next thing I knew a frisbee bounced off my head. A guy who had obviously missed his catch, came running up. "You ok?" "Yeah just a rude awakening in guess." "Sorry about that." Another guy came up at that point. "Everything ok?" "Yeah just a bump on the head. I'll survive." The second guy looked down at my books. "I thought you looked familiar. You have Mr Carstairs for Historical effects don't you?" "Yeah Tuesdays and Thursdays." "Me too. I'm Carlton and this is Devon. He's in our class too." I stood up and shook hands with them both. "And I'm Dennis. So which cirriculum are you guys here for?" "Business management for both of us,you?" "Financial certification. I'll be out in two." "Hard field to break into." "Yeah well I've got an ace in the hole. I own the investment firm." "Yeah that would do it." "I figured I had better have the foundations at least before I made any pretense of taking the corner office." "And who is that going to piss off?" "Likely a good many people,but I'm mitigating the circumstances some by working as just another schlep during the summers." "Sounds a good idea to me. Wnat to join us for a while?" "Sure I could use the exercise." We tossed the frisbee around for I don't know how long. Eventually my phone rang and I caught the frissbe first so I didn't have to run it down. It was Karl. "Hey lover. I think I'm ready for some lunch. Maybe something light like a tuna sandwich or something." "One tuna on its way. More tea or something else?" "Tea will be fine love." "See you about ten lover." I hung up the phone. "I need to be off guys. Thanks for the workout." "Anytime. See you around." I was off to the cafeteria to grab the sandwich and tea for Karl and a little something for myself. I was soon enough at Karls door again. It opened again only wide enough to take the food. "You feeling any better than this morning love?" "Yeah some. I should be good to go by Monday,though I don't think I'll be doing much jogging for a few days." "That's understadable love. Anything else I can get you?" "A million bucks?" "Dream on." I did notice that Karls sense of humor was coming back,which did more to assure me he was feeling better than just his word. "You going to want something more substantial for supper love?" "Maybe. I'll let you know lover. Now get out of here and relax. I'm going to be fine." "Ok love you" "Love you more." I headed outside once more and debated heading over to the rec center,and finally decided to do so as I hadn't been in a couple of days. As luck would have it once I got there the team was having a practice. I had changed but seeing them in there I decided only to watch for the time being. Because it was one of my worst disciplines I decided to watch the floor excercises. It would give me a fair idea of what a good routine was so that I could start to build my own if only in my mind. At some point the coach came up behind me. "Getting any ideas Dennis?" "I'm at least seeing where things have gone with the routines. The tumbling runs were always the worst part of my routine." "It's the toughest part of the floor for a lot of guys so I wouldn't beat yourself up too much about that. If you do it clean means more to me than the level of difficulty. I know you've been working out trying to build yourself back up,so what other than the floor do you need to work on?" "Just the high bar and I'm going to have to watch to see what passes for good routine there and build one." "Well like I said I'd rather see a clean routine than a difficult one." "I'll keep it in mind coach." I tracked several more of the floor routines to see what they all had in common and what was more for artistic sake. Once things quieted down a bit I started to work my way round the different apparatus and getting a full routine in on the ones I had already. I then moved over to the high bar. I did a few simple swing throughs a release and capture,then swung up into a handstand and through to another release move and reversal of direction and swing throughs to a double somersault dismount,which I stumbled out of a bit. I hit the hot tub for a bit and then hit the showers. When I was leaving the gym,my phone rang and it was Karl. "Think I'm ready for something really solid lover. Get whatever is ready and I can always mic it if I have to." "I think tonights special is meatloaf. That ok?" "Yeah that'll be fine. Mashed no gravy and a veggie I think." "Damn sounds like you're feeling a lot better." "Yeah I am. Still don't want you in the room though." "Ok, as long as you're feeling better. I should be there in about a half hour of so." "Ok love see you then." I grabbed something for myself before I ordered up Karls supper and then I brought it over to him. "Thanks love. How's your day been?" "Got some work done,had some fun,and went to the gym. I'm heading back to the frat after this. I didn't really sleep all that well last night." "It was Friday. Did........did you have company?" "I won't lie to you love I did,but not intentionally." "How could it be not intentional?" "I thought I closed the door,but I guess it didn't fully latch." "Who?" "Jared." "Was he any good?" "Yes he was,but there was nothing there Karl I swear. The feeling I got was that I was just another notch on the bedpost or whatever." "You staying there again tonight?" "I said I was,and nothing is going to happen I can promise." "I know you mean that Den,but you can't be sure." "I am as sure of that as I am that we WILL be married lover." "When?" "What?" "When will we be married? You needed to be sure remember? Are you sure beyond a shadow of a doubt?" "Love this is not a conversation I want to be having through a door." "Then I guess it will have to wait until at least tomorrow. I do love you ya know." "I know love, and I hope you know I love you as well." "I know. Go get some sleep love and I'll call you when I wake up in the morning. You going jogging in the morning?" "Yeah I intend to." "Ok I won't call until after I'm sure you are done with that." "Ok love sleep well" "You too." I headed out of the dorm and back over to the frat. There were plenty of hellos when I got there and it looked like they were setting up for a party. "What's going on tonight?" "Just got a few like minded guys coming over;guys who thought about joining but for whatever reason didn't." "Attendance is?" "Completely voluntary, but you might just as well be here as I doubt you'll get to sleep much before 1 or 2." "I'll think about it." I headed upstairs and to my room. It would only be a couple hours later that the bass beat would be pounding through the house. They were right. There would be no way that I was going to sleep through that. I set my phone to vibrate as I knew I'd never hear it through that if I was downstairs. I headed down just to see what was going on. I found that a few of the guests had gotten a head start on the party and were already feeling no pain. A little bit later a guy who could have been a model for A&F moved over in my directio and whispered in my ear. "Why don't you invite me upstairs?" "I don't think so." I quickly found my hand twisted behind my back. "Nobody refuses me."
