The next thing he did was to call his coach. He had not said a word when Brian said, `Congratulations, Luke. I heard from Paul Smart that you had been successful. Well done! I know the whole club will be delighted at the news. However, you do know that this means a lot of hard work and effort if you are to do well. I believe you will shortly be receiving a detailed training programme from the national coach, most of which you should be able to undertake here.' `Thanks, coach, your help was invaluable. I do know that I have a lot to do to prove myself worthy of the selection and I am very willing to do whatever it takes.' `That's good to hear. In that case, I'll see you tomorrow morning for an hour's training before you go to school. After the exertions of the weekend, I also suggest that you have an early night.' `I will, coach. Thank you again.' Luke went downstairs to say `goodnight' to his parents and then, although it was still relatively early, he followed the coach's advice and went to bed. He slept like a log and only woke when his alarm went off in the morning. The teenager groaned, looked at the time and reluctantly got up, showered and prepared to go for his training session. Even if he had wanted to, Luke could not have evaded his headteacher's eagle eye. When he came through the school entrance, Mr Andrews was waiting for him with a querying look on his face. `Yes, Mr Andrews, I've won a place in the GB national junior squad.' The headteacher beamed with pleasure, `Excellent! Well done. It is an honour for you and the school is very proud of the fact that you will be representing this country in the near future. May I assume that it is OK for me to announce the news at the Assembly this morning?' Luke disliked the attention but could hardly refuse the request and merely nodded before walking away towards the Common Room. The news of Luke's success received a mixed reception. The overwhelming majority of the students greeted the news with enthusiasm and pressed around the blushing teenager offering him their congratulations. There remained a small group who, either held feelings of animosity towards Luke or were jealous of his success. This group ostentatiously left the School Hall without acknowledging the young man's success in any way. In one sense, Luke wished there were more like them as he struggled to cope with the good wishes and slaps on the back he was receiving. When he finally escaped, Luke went to talk to one of his tutors so that he could explain the next steps and how they might affect his coursework. He also needed to tell her about Jake's accident and his consequential absence from classes for the next few days. Jane Crosby was a sensible teacher who liked both Luke and Jake, so she was anxious to help in any way she could. Between the two of them, they reached an agreement over how both the teenagers' situations could be managed. Jake's issue was far easier to solve because Luke could deliver work for him to undertake at home along with any course notes. On the other hand, swimming commitments were likely to impact Luke's progress in his academic work and there was the added potential problem of a clash when the exam season came around. It was obvious that Luke had not even considered this complication and looked concerned but Jane Crosby said that she would discuss the problem with the headteacher. If it became necessary they would talk to the examination board and seek a dispensation for Luke to sit the exam either at a different time or in a different location should the need arise. Luke gave a visible sigh of relief and thanked Jane for her understanding and support. As soon as he finished school for the day, Luke hurried to the leisure centre and began a gruelling round of circuit training followed by a long swim, all under Brian's critical gaze. After two hours, to Luke's great relief, the coach finally ended the session. The teenager trudged wearily home and was more than ready to eat. Molly looked at her son sympathetically and said, in a concerned voice, `You look done in, sweetheart. Are you sure you will be able to cope?' Luke gave a half-smile and replied, `I think so. Today was hard but it is only day one, things will get easier once I get into a steady routine. I guess I'm feeling the effects of the weekend, my concern over Jake's accident, school and the training.' `That's what I mean. Are you sure you aren't taking on too much?' `Mum, I promise if things get on top of me, I'll say so.' Molly was unwilling to press the subject further so she let the matter drop. After his meal, Luke went around to Jake's house to deliver some homework and to explain what had been agreed with Jane Crosby. He was pleased to see his boyfriend was up and about although he still looked pale and the wounds were still visible. Jake's face lit up when he saw Luke and the teenagers briefly hugged each other before the American suggested that it might be prudent for them to go somewhere more private. The teenagers quickly went to Jake's bedroom and closed the door. As soon as they were securely alone, they hugged more intimately and Jake said, quietly, `Although my wrist's bust, I can still do other things and I owe you for yesterday. I'll need a bit of help but I want to suck your cock and take your hot cum down my throat.' With Luke's more than willing assistance, the horny American was soon using his tongue to roll back his lover's foreskin and was bathing the sensitive head and piss slit with saliva. The British teenager let out a low satisfied groan of pleasure as Jake continued to tease and slurp his way all over the rock-hard prick. Luke held the back of his boyfriend's head as he began to face-fuck the American, who looked up approvingly signalling his enjoyment with his eyes. After several more minutes, Luke moaned and said, `I don't want to cum just yet, let's swap places.' Once they had rearranged themselves, the randy British teen eagerly took his boyfriend's dick between his lips and gave a faithful reiteration of what Jake had done a few moments earlier. The American sighed with pleasure and eased his rampant erection deeper into the welcoming mouth. Luke used his tongue to tease the sensitive underside of Jake's cock and was quickly rewarded with a squirt of pre-cum. At the same time, the randy British teen slid his fingers towards his partner's hole and pushed inside. He found the prostate and teased it which made Jake's shaft twitch several times. Having found just the right combination of oral stimulation and prostate teasing, Luke set to work to give his lover a climax to remember. Jake did not want the exquisite pleasure to stop and urged the British teenager to even greater efforts. Luke happily obliged and could tell from Jake's heavy breathing that he would soon complete the task. Jake's groaning became louder as he felt his ball juice begin its journey to release. Luke urgently licked the flared piss slit and waited for the arrival of his boyfriend's hot spunk. With one final gasp, Jake reached his orgasm and rounds of cum fired onto Luke's lapping tongue and then down his throat. Noting that his partner's knees were beginning to buckle, the British teenager placed a steadying hand behind Jake's back. The American gasped, `OMG, that was awesome. Thank you. I owe you twice now, but there's still time for me to repay you at least once. Just give me a second to get ready.' The boys changed places once again and Jake eagerly took Luke's pre-cum-drenched shaft between his lips and used his tongue to bathe the whole of the shaft and sensitive head with a mixture of the goo and his saliva. The British teenager was already close to reaching the point of no return and the feel of Jake's talented tongue pushed him ever closer. The American teenager used his plastered wrist to hold his lover in place and used his good hand to tease his British lover's balls. He slipped his mouth off the rock-hard shaft which he pushed flat against Luke's groin as he took each of the exposed balls into his mouth in turn. The British teen groaned with delight as Jake licked the full length of his cock from the base to the tip. Finally, the randy American took the dick back into his mouth and waited for the inevitable orgasm to overwhelm his boyfriend. Luke could hardly breathe as an overwhelming feeling took over and an intense climax resulted in him flooding Jake's mouth with his creamy jizz. For several seconds, the shaft seemed to throb uncontrollably as waves of the most intense pleasure flowed through the British teenager but, eventually, it stopped. Such was the effect of their love-making that both boys wanted to spend several minutes recovering. As luck would have it, they had just sorted themselves out and were respectable once again when Jake's mom arrived home and called out for her son. The pair waited for a second or two before coming downstairs where she was waiting. Jake explained that Luke had called around to deliver some homework for him to complete before he was fit to go back to school. `Why, thank you, Luke, that is so good of you and I understand from Jake that you have been selected to join the national swimming team, Jake's dad and I are both delighted for you.' Always respectful, Luke smiled and replied, `Thank you, ma'am.' Jake grinned and said, `You know what, mom. We'll make an American of Luke yet!' Luke laughed and then looked at his watch, `It's getting late and I've had a long day I think I ought to be getting home. I've got much the same again tomorrow and I need to sleep.' `Sure, Luke. Thanks again for all you do for Jake.' The teenagers walked to the gate and, because his mom was standing within sight of them, they engaged in a slightly awkward hug before Luke went on his way. The rest of the week followed a similar pattern as far as school and training went. Luke managed to visit Jake several times but had to tell him that he would not be around at the weekend as he had to go to a regional team event. The American said that he understood and added that he had been given the all-clear from the hospital so he would be back at school on the following Monday. Luke said how pleased he was to hear the news and then added that he was hoping that they would be able to have some private time together as he had an idea he wished to discuss with his boyfriend. Despite Jake's intrigued look, the British teenager said that it was complicated and he needed time to think through what he wanted to say. Luke tried to sound reassuring as he said, `Don't worry, it isn't something awful, if it worked out, it might be rather good but there are a few loose ends that I need to resolve.' Reluctantly, Jake accepted the explanation. Just before he left for his weekend training, Luke received a message from Mike congratulating him on his success and wishing him good luck for the future. Jake also came to see his lover off and they embraced briefly in the British teen's room before he left, promising to call around on the evening of his return. The weekend proved to be challenging and the coaches worked the team members very hard. The one bright spot was that the divers had also gathered at the same venue and, on arrival, Luke found himself sharing with Gary once again. The Welsh teenager grinned broadly when he saw Luke and gave him a big hug, `Isn't it great, we're sharing again?' `Indeed, it's nice to see a friendly face and we hit it off well last time didn't we? Don't worry if you want some private time to whisper sweet nothings to your girlfriend, I'll happily make myself scarce.' `No need, we've parted by what is described as "by mutual consent". Once she understood how much time and commitment I would have to give to training and competing, she made it clear that it was too much for her and she wanted to have a more carefree life. I thought that if she was that shallow I wasn't going to stand in her way. After all, there are plenty more fish in the sea. So I have taken a leaf out of your book and have decided to socialise with those friends who understand and are supportive.' `I think that's very sound thinking, Gary. My social circle are all supportive and so is my swimming club. I get support from my school, although sometimes I wish they weren't quite so keen on publicity. So far I've managed to avoid the local reporter but I don't know for how much longer.' `I didn't realise you were still at school, doing A-levels, I suppose? I'm in College learning a trade but they have been understanding.' `Yeah, I'm doing A-levels and I hope to go to Uni next year. What trade are you hoping to follow.' `At the moment, it's general building, but, eventually, I'd like to run my own business.' Having caught up on the news, Luke yawned, `I'm sorry, Gary, it's nothing to do with you or the conversation, it's just that, to be honest, I'm knackered.' `No problem. I'm ready for sleep too. Do you mind if I use the bathroom first, I won't be long.' The youngsters got ready for bed. Gary used the bathroom first. When he emerged, he went straight to bed, wearing a pair of shorts. Jake admired the athletic body of the Welsh diver and found that he was attracted to him. Although neither Jake nor he had discussed the question of whether they should become exclusive, the British teenager felt an obligation to resist temptation and only indulge in sexual activity when both of them were present and consenting. Making an effort to hide the bulge in his jeans, Luke went into the bathroom and returned dressed as equally modestly as Gary and got into bed. Although their paths hardly crossed during the next couple of days, Gary and Luke bonded and formed a strong friendship, so much so that, before he left Luke decided to confide in his new friend, `Gary, before we leave, I need to tell you something. I do have a special someone at home and his name is Jake, he's an American and he's amazing and supportive. I hope me telling you this won't affect our friendship and you will keep what I've told you confidential.' Gary laughed as he replied, `Do you think I didn't realise? I'm your friend because I like you as a person and I don't care what you do outside of swimming. Well, within reason I don't. I might draw the line at mass murder but having a boyfriend is way down that list!' `Thank you, Gary. I like you very much, too and I'm glad we can be friends. But tell me how did you realise I was gay?' `That was easy. It wasn't anything you said or did though I did notice you checking me out. No, it was what you didn't say during that conversation we had about the impact that swimming had on your social life. Your reply to my question was carefully crafted but didn't mention either sex, I guess that said something that I picked up on and drew what turned out to be the right conclusion.' Luke grinned and said, `Well, perhaps I had better be less careful in what I say next time. Before you leave I have one other thing to say. If you are going to be coming here to train regularly or at any other time, it would be great to have you stay at my house. My parents are cool and I'd love you to meet my other friends, especially Jake. If you agree, I promise not to molest you in any way unless you ask me to, then, well, I might just consider it.' Gary laughed as he replied, `That's very gracious of you and I would love to stay and get to meet your friends. Let's email and try to arrange it. But for now, I need to run to catch my lift home. The teenagers hugged and went their separate ways. It was late by the time Luke got back home and he did not have time to visit Jake but he messaged him to confirm that he would see him the following day at school. The meeting was, however, delayed because of another event. Ever since he had been selected to join the national team, the local news reporter Cindi Regan had been chasing Luke for an interview, which the teenager, with his parents' assistance, had successfully avoided. However, the combined efforts of Mr Andrew and the reporter had finally brought success and Luke was summoned to the head's office where the press interview was conducted. Even though he hated the publicity, Luke answered all the questions as honestly and straightforwardly as he could and Mr Andrews took the opportunity to emphasise the support being offered by the school. Luke made sure that he paid tribute to his coaches and fellow swimming club members along with the strong encouragement and support from his family and friends. As usual, he gave rather bland answers to any personal questions choosing to emphasise the difficulty of balancing training and school commitments and the effect they had on the time he had to spend on his social life. When the interview was over, all parties appeared satisfied with the outcome. Cindi had finally managed to get the interview with Luke that she had been seeking for some time and had enough material to produce something about the local hero for publication. Luke was happy that the session was over and that he had avoided any pitfalls and received a sympathetic hearing. Finally, Mr Andrews was delighted that the popular pupil would feature in the local newspaper at a time when many parents were making decisions about which secondary school they would choose for their children. Immediately after school, Luke had a long training session at the leisure centre which went well. At the end of his workout, the youngster took the opportunity to raise a couple of issues on which he wanted the coach's advice and help. The first of these was the seemingly endless schedule of training sessions and Luke asked whether there could be some flexibility so that some minor alterations could be made. His strongest arguments were that he was finding it hard to keep up with his schoolwork, that he was feeling tired and jaded and that he needed some time to relax, rest and socialise with his friends. Brian, the coach, listened to what had been said and responded by saying that Luke had to understand that he would have to make some sacrifices if he was serious about an international swimming career. However, the coach did accept that some flexibility was possible and agreed to review the training schedule with the teenager the next time they met. The second issue was more complex and Luke had thought long and hard about how he wanted to present his request. `I was wondering what you think is the possibility of me going to train in America and attend a University over there on a sports scholarship. I met someone at the selection who is doing just that and I was attracted by the opportunities he told me such a move might open up. Do you think it's feasible?' Brian was taken aback by the request and it took him a short while to think of an appropriate response, `I assume you are referring to Dean Grey when you say you met someone. Dean is, to some extent, a special case. He trains in Florida because that is where he and his family live, the national coaches came to an agreement for him to stay over there on the provision that he was always available for selection by Team GB. So far, it had worked out well but my understanding is that they made it clear that this was a one-off and I would guess that they would not be very well disposed to agreeing to any further requests. Of course, you could ask, but you need to prepare yourself for a refusal. I'm surprised by your raising the question because if you are missing your friends and family now, think how much worse it would be if you were thousands of miles away. I do accept that as you progress and improve, you will need better coaching than I can ever possibly provide but I believe that you would receive the highest level of support and advice from the national coaches that work over here. You've only just got into the team and the first thing you do is to say you want to go to train abroad, it won't recommend you either to the administrators or the selectors. If I were you, I'd keep my powder dry for the time being.' Luke listened carefully to Brian's answer and although disappointed by what he heard, he reluctantly realised that he had allowed his heart to rule his head and that, if he pursued any such a request, it would come across as premature and inappropriate. What the coach said was not only sensible but also presaged the likely answer to any approach that he might make to the swimming authorities. When Luke got home, his mum told him that Jake was waiting for him in his room and asked her son if everything was OK. She added that she had asked him to stay for something to eat and that it would be ready in about three-quarters of an hour. Luke thanked his mum and went off upstairs to join his boyfriend. Jake greeted his lover with a tentative smile and said, `Before you went away to your training weekend, you told me there was something you wanted to discuss with me. Although you said it wasn't bad, I've been worried all day in case you were going to say that everything was getting too much and that we ought to take a break.' `Never', responded Luke with vehemence, `I'd never do that! In any case, what I was going to talk to you about is not going to happen.' Luke went on to explain about his encounter with Dean Grey at the training and that it had seemed a good option for them both to study together in America. However, he had discussed the matter with his coach who had, to all intents and purposes, vetoed the idea. As his boyfriend was speaking, a look of horror crossed Jake's face and then he gave his reaction, `I'm glad your coach told you not to do it. It would have been a very bad idea. Think about it, we would be out there on our own. What would we do if anything happened to either of us or we fell out or something? I know I said what I said about missing life in America, just after Noah went home but since then I've had time to think more deeply. First of all, my immediate family are here along with all the people I love, including you. Yes, I miss my friends and family in the US but I'd miss the friends I've made over here even more. Second of all, if you went to America you'd be leaving all your family and friends behind and I know that it would be an unacceptable sacrifice Given the choice I would stay here and I'd want you to do the same!' The emotion of the moment was affecting both teenagers and they stood staring at each other for several moments before they came together in an embrace. As he held his boyfriend tight, Luke whispered, `I'm sorry. I'm really, really sorry. I should have talked to you and my mum and dad first before I made any moves. I thought it would be a nice surprise but I see now that I was wrong. I promise I will never do something like that again.' Jake patted Luke on the back signalling that he understood and accepted his regretful apology. At just that moment, Molly Townsend knocked on the door and called to say that their food was ready. The two teenagers followed her to the kitchen and, in a manner typical of boys of their age, devoured everything in sight. An exchange of looks between Luke and his mum reassured Molly that, whatever the problem had been between the two boys, it was now resolved. She resolved not to enquire further but was sure in the end, Luke would tell her. After they had finished eating, Luke and Jake went back upstairs and spent some time working on their school projects but most of the time was spent making up after their misunderstanding. After they had both satisfied their sexual desires, Luke said that, as he had an early start the following morning, he needed an early night. Jake took the hint but before he left he said, `After today, I've made a decision. I'm going to do something I should have done a long time ago. I'm going to tell my family that I'm gay and also tell them about our relationship.' Luke moved closer and kissed his boyfriend tenderly and said, `Do you want me to come with you?' Jake shook his head vigorously, `No, Luke, this is something I need to do on my own!' I hope you liked this part of the story.
