CHAPTER 59
EVEN BUSIER

TUESDAY, AUGUST 28

Coach Bill and his assistant, a student at Centralia College in Kentburg,
started practice promptly at three in the afternoon. Aiden felt very grown
up when his dads gave him permission to ride his bike to practice and
back. The first week's practices were all going to be held at East Lake
Park, which meant Aiden could ride the bike on the walking and bike trail
along Lakeshore Road. This was especially important because Phil would be
at work and Larry would be putting in time at school preparing for the
start of the school year.

"Two rules," Larry told him. "First, you ride only on the bike trail."

"Daddy, that's always been the rule."

"It is part of the daddy code to remind boys of everything, no matter how
much they think they know everything."

"Somebody needs to rewrite the code."

"Like that will ever happen. It just so happens to be etched in stone."

Aiden knew it was time to escape out of his hole. "What is the second
rule?"

"You walk your bike across Lakeshore Road when you have to cross it." Aiden
would have to cross the road when he reached the northeast entrance to the
park.

"I can ride across it faster," Aiden pointed out.

"But you can walk across it safer. Look, once you get settled in we can
discuss loosening things up."

"Does this mean I can start riding my bike to school?"

"All it means for now is you can ride you bike to soccer practice."

"Why? I'm riding the same bike trail. And don't tell me about crossing
Highway 12 because I do it when I go visit my friends."

Larry gave Aiden the look that said, This discussion is almost over. "While
Highway 12 has something to do with the decision, the fact that you would
be riding a lot in the dark plus the convenience of riding the bus are
telling factors."

Aiden ignored Larry's look in order to get in a last question. "So, when it
we get more light in the spring and I'm almost twelve, can I ask you about
riding my bike to school again?"

Larry nodded. "You can ask again as long as you observe a moratorium on
asking the question between now and the commencement of Daylight Savings
Time."

"Moratorium means I won't do it at all, right?"

"Exactly."

Aiden thought practice was fun, especially since all of his best friends
were there. Coach Bill knew he had his work cut out for him. First of all,
he had 22 boys turning out and was allowed a maximum of 18 boys on the
roster. Secondly, the team was young with only nine twelve-year-olds
turning out and two of those were not ready to play a higher level of
soccer. "The two fifth graders turning out are better than a couple of the
older kids," Bill told his assistant, who readily agreed.

Except for crossing Lakeshore Road at the park, Aiden rode his bike home
from practice. As he turned into the driveway, he tried to figure out why
it was okay if he rode his bike when he crossed the road in front of the
house, but he had to walk it where it passed the park. He wondered if his
moratorium on asking about riding to school included that question. He
decided not to chance it.

Larry arrived from school as Aiden pushed his bike into the garage. Aiden
accompanied him up the stairs into the main house, babbling non-stop about
how practice had gone. He went on up the stairs to his bedroom where he
stripped naked before booting up his computer.

After Phil arrived from work he and Larry cooked up dinner. Aiden donned
his long t-shirt for dinner. While they ate, he let Phil know everything he
had told Larry and then some.

After dinner, he helped clean up and then went to the TV room to watch the
Mariner game. He had been wearing nothing under his long t-shirt, so that
was all he had to take off. He sat in his favorite chair. Just as he
settled in, his viewing as well as his casual playing with his cocklet were
disturbed by the doorbell playing Beethoven.

"Get dressed and then come to the living room," Phil yelled out. Aiden knew
who he was yelling at and he quickly dashed out of the room and up to his
bedroom. He pulled on a pair of board shorts and a t-shirt and came
downstairs. The pattern on the board shorts was a bit on the wild side, to
put it mildly.

Aiden didn't recognize the lady in the room, but he did recognize the two
boys and the stuffed animal they each had on their lap. They were Cole and
Davey and the animals on their laps were Megrez and Andy, the stuffed
animals he and Gordy had donated to them.

"Aiden, this is Mrs. Gunther. I'm sure you recognize Cole and Davey."

Aiden walked over to Mrs. Gunther and held out his hand, which the
surprised lady promptly grabbed and shook. The boys had each had a birthday
since the day of their trailer fire—Cole was now seven and Davey was
four. Megrez was sitting on Cole's lap, a red scarf wrapped around his
neck.

"Megrez has a new scarf," Aiden observed.

"He still has the green one, but Mrs. G made him a new one so he has two."
Cole said proudly. It was then that Aiden realized that the lady was not
the boys' mother.

Larry saw the confusion on Aiden's face. "Mrs. Gunter is the boys' foster
mother."

"I'm sure your father will tell you the story later," Mrs. Gunther said
with a smile. Larry nodded to indicate that would be the case. "The boys
have something they would like to tell you."

Davey pointed to the yellow scarf around Andy the Panda's neck. "Andy has a
scarf."

"Thank you for helping me and Davey, Aiden" Cole said sincerely. "I love
Megrez."

"Thank you," the little four-year-old said shyly. "I love Andy Panda."

"Follow me," Aiden grinned. "I want to show you something." The boys got
out of their chairs and Aiden led them to his bedroom.

"You have a nice room and it is big," Cole observed. Then he saw Horace on
his perch over his desk. "Is that yours?"

"Donkey," Davey grinned.

"Yep," Aiden said. "He is Horace the Donkey. Megrez was his friend when he
lived here in my bedroom. I wanted Horace to see Megrez so he would know
that Megrez had a good home with two boys who love him."

The two little boys clutched Aiden together, giving him a mutual hug. "We
love you," Cole said. Aiden was surprised that he was fighting back
tears. He knew that the two boys would be his friends for life. He was
pleased to see how well they had cared for the two stuffed animals. It made
what he and Gordy had done seem even more worthwhile.

When the boys returned to the living room, Aiden saw that Mrs. Gunther and
his dads were deep in conversation. "Hi, boys, welcome back," Larry said.

"We should probably be going," Mrs. Gunther said. "The boys and I thought
it would be a nice gesture to thank Aiden and Gordon for what they did for
Cole and Davie." The three of them had visited Gordy and his parents before
coming to Aiden's house. What Aiden didn't know is that the visits had been
arranged in advance by Mrs. G. to ensure that the families would be
home. She had also requested that the visits should be made a surprise for
the boys.

After the guests left, Aiden and his dads went to the family discussion
room. Larry and Phil sat on the sofa while Aiden sat in his recliner. Aiden
didn't have to be told by his dads that they were meeting to talk about
their surprise (at least for Aiden) guests.

"First of all, my eyes need protection from those garish things you're
wearing," Phil said. "I'm surprised those poor little boys weren't
blinded."

"You mean my board shorts?" Aiden asked.

"Well, I certainly wasn't referring to a blue and white Mayfield Mustangs
shirt."

"Like you can talk. Your lounge pants are so loud I could close my eyes and
hear them coming."

"I'm just thankful you both weren't dressed in your most dazzling colors,"
Larry chuckled.

"These shorts are for outdoors," Aiden pointed out. "They can burn the
paint off the walls when you're inside."

"Just protect us all and take them off," Phil said with mock seriousness.

"I was in a hurry to dress and went commando."

"I've seen your free balls before."

"Wow, I can't believe you're actually telling me to get naked."

"We have to get used to it," Larry said, "since your naked week starts on
Saturday."

"Yeah, I've been meaning to say something about that."

"Oh?"

"It's kind of unfair since I miss two days because we'll be in Seattle and
then School starts on Wednesday so that's three more days away from home. I
should get to start my naked week tomorrow."

"I think he has a good point," Larry told Phil. "What do you think?"

"I agree," Phil said. Aiden grinned. This was turning out easier than he
thought it would. "We start tomorrow, except he can't be naked during his
party on Saturday, since there will be girls here."

"Wow, that makes another day I would have lost. My week would have been
one-day long. I should be able to add one more day to make seven." Aiden
pulled off his shorts and tossed them over the back of the chair, revealing
his hairless cock and balls. "Happy, or should I take off my shirt, too?"

"No, that's good," Phil said. "I can see you without squinting."

"I'm not quite sure I understand your math as far as the number of nudist
days you have coming," Larry said.

"It goes like this, tomorrow is day one and..."

"Stop there. Here is my plan and if you and your dad approve it will be our
plan. Tomorrow, Thursday, and Friday are three days. Next Tuesday will make
four. You can be naked for meals and whatever on Thursday through Saturday
next week, which is three days, making seven. Tuesday we're going to eat
out to celebrate you and me surviving the first day of school. Fair
enough?"

"What if something screws up one of the days we picked?" Aiden asked.

"Then you can scream that life is unfair and we move on."

"How about I get one more day I can pick for whenever I want if I lose one
of the days?"

"Fair enough, but whatever day you end up picking will be the day no matter
what happens."

Aiden thought for a couple of seconds. He was getting more concessions than
he had dreamed possible, so he accepted the stipulations. Phil thought the
setup was fair and the family agreed on how Aiden's life as a total
naturist at home would work.

"Now, about Cole and Davie," Larry said. Aiden listened intently as Phil
explained how their mother had been charged with child abandonment and
child endangerment after leaving the two young boys in the trailer while
she went out with a friend. An electrical short then started the fire that
the boys were lucky to survive.

This wasn't the first instance of their mother leaving them alone and being
brought before a judge for it, nor was it their first foray into the foster
care system. Their mother was sentenced to a three-year prison term and the
boys were placed in the care of Mrs. Gunther and her husband, Floyd. She
most likely would be released long before the sentence was set to end.

"What's going to happen to them when their mother gets out of jail?" Aiden
asked.

"She will have to petition to get her parental rights reinstated," Phil
told him.

"Kind of like my father has to do?"

"Not really since you are our adopted son. Cole and Davie are foster
children, which an entirely different kettle of fish. In the meantime, the
Gunthers have grown to love the two little urchins. I think the boys will
have a loving home to live in for as long as it is needed."

"I'm glad they have Andy Panda and Megrez. They make Cole and Davie happy."

"You and Gordy are great kids," Larry said. "What you did helped those two
young boys deal with a lot of hurt."

"Where's their dad?"

"Nobody knows. He's a deadbeat."

"Just like my father," Aiden said with an air of sadness.

Larry knew even before Aiden that the subject needed to be changed. "Are
you excited about tomorrow?" he asked Aiden.

"Huh? What?" Aiden appeared to be in a fog. Larry and Phil were surprised
as to how quickly he got there.

"Orientation, kiddo. Or have you forgotten?"

Aiden blinked his eyes a few times, then broke out into a grin. He looked
as if the fog had lifted as quickly as it had set in, but neither dad was
sure. "Yeah. I can't wait to find out who my teachers will be and who will
be in my classes. And I'm excited you're letting me ride my bike there." He
could see that his daddy was ready to say something. He knew exactly what
it was going to be. "Yes, I know it's a one-time thing, but it's still
cool."

Sixth grade orientation was scheduled for 9:00. Since there were no issues
such as weather, darkness, carrying books and sports gear, and the like,
and since there was no school bus to ride, Larry and Phil had told Aiden he
could ride his bike to orientation. It made him feel very grown up.

The talk ended not long after and Aiden left to get ready for bed. That
night he and Horace ended up in the master bedroom, joining Larry and Phil
on their king-size bed. After hearing the story of Cole and Davie and
thinking about his "deadbeat" father, Aiden felt the need to spend the
night with the warmth and love of his dads.

WEDNESDAY, AUGUST 29

 Aiden woke up with his dad and went jogging with him. Phil eased up a few
times to let Aiden catch up to him.

"You need to go with me more often if you expect to keep pace with me,"
Phil told his son.

"What I need is to get longer legs."

"Well, there is that, too," Phil chuckled.

Kalie called while Aiden was in the shower and he called her back after he
dried himself. He thought that talking to her on the phone while he was
naked was kind of sexy. Kalie said she was riding her bike to school and
wondered if Aiden would be as well. She was surprised that the answer was
yes and said she would be at Aiden's house by 8:30.

Phil left for work at 7:30. Larry wanted to be at the high school by nine
and was still hanging around the house when Aiden left with Kalie at
8:30. Aiden and Kalie didn't have any opportunity to talk except while they
waited at the traffic light to cross Highway 12.

"We're in the same home room," Kalie said. Their home room assignments had
arrived in the mail on Monday.

"I know," Aiden replied.

"I wonder how many classes we'll have together."

"I don't know." Aiden was happy to see the walk light come on and he had
Kalie pushed their bikes across the highway.

 When they arrived at the middle school, they locked their bikes at the
bike racks and entered the school through the front entrance as
instructed. They were met in the foyer by Ellen, an eighth grade guide, who
showed them to the auditorium.

Like everyone else, Aiden and Kalie looked for their friends. Kalie saw
Donna at about the same time that Aiden saw Gordy and the two split up to
sit with their best friends.

The idea of Orientation Day was to familiarize the incoming sixth graders
with the school and to give them their schedules. The welcoming assembly
started at 9:00 sharp. Mr. Donovan, the principal, greeted the new sixth
graders, the introduction of "important" people was made, and the students
were dismissed to their home room, a room at a time.

Aiden, Miles, and Mason were in the same home room. They had gushed over
the news when their assignment arrived in Monday's mail. Aiden was
disappointed that Gordy had been assigned to a different home room. When
the heard "Room 121" announced they left their seats and met with their
eighth grade guide, a big kid named Ron Burns. Big meant big. At thirteen,
he stood six foot one and he was more than a tall scarecrow. He was a farm
boy which had helped him place some solid muscle on his adolescent frame.

Ron introduced himself. When it looked like everyone going to Room 121 had
arrived, he led them to the room. When they arrived, Ron went into the room
and found a seat. He had to work to make himself comfortable.

"I bet he has a big one," Mason whispered as he sat with Aiden and Miles.

"Mason, you've got a one-track mind," Miles grumped.

"You don't mind it when I come over to your house."

Miles dropped his right hand below desk level and flipped Mason the bird.

Aiden was pleased to learn that Mason was in his Core class, as was
Kalie. He was also pleased that Mr. Lawrence, the teacher he would have for
the first three periods of the day, appeared to be as good as everybody,
including his daddy, had said he was. He projected the image of being
strict and commanding while maintaining a friendly tone tinged with moments
of humor.

Aiden was also with Mason for Science and PE while Miles had Math and PE
with him. Kalie was in Art with him. He couldn't wait to find out if Gordy
and Muddy were in any of his classes.

Mrs. Silverman, their home room teacher, gave out schedules and assigned
lockers. "Memorize your combinations, then rip up and throw away your
slips. Don't give out your combination to anybody." Mrs. Silverman was a
15-year veteran and knew her charges would be blabbing their combos to
friends. Every year somebody ended up being sorry they did so by the time
winter break rolled around. She hoped that somebody wouldn't be one of her
pupils.

When Aiden went to his Core class, he was pleased to see Gordy and Brody
there. Core filled three periods of the seven period day with English,
Reading, and Social Studies. Gordy and Brody were also in in his Math
class, as was Muddy. He was with Mason for Science and Kalie and Donna for
art.

Muddy, Mason, Miles, and Russell were in Aiden's PE class. Aiden had seen
Russell in the auditorium, but not in any of his classes, which made him
happy. He was not happy to see him seventh period PE, the last period of
the day. Aiden ignored Russell while the class sat in the bleachers getting
instructions from Mr. Randall, the PE teacher and boys' basketball coach.
Russell ignored Aiden as well. He was certain Aiden was being a stuck up
pecker head, while Aiden thought Russell was behaving like butt shuffler.

Orientation ended at 10:30. Aiden texted his dad, asking if he could go to
Gordy's house. He got the okay within two minutes with the instruction to
be home by 4:00.

Mason, Miles, Muddy, Kalie, and Donna also went to Gordy's. Gordy's mom
hadn't expected so many to come over, but she found a way to have lunch for
all of them. As he and his friends scarfed down their lunches Gordy was
certain that he had the best mom in Mayfield, if not on the entire planet.

THURSDAY, AUGUST 30

"Hah! Game!" Aiden ran to retrieve the ping pong ball he'd just slammed
past Larry to give him an 11-9 win. "That would be three wins for me and
two for you, so I win the series."

"Good job, kiddo. We won't go into how many series' victories I have."

"No we won't, because the last one is the one that counts. So there." Aiden
set the ball and his paddle on the table, which was in its summer locale,
on the pool patio under the deck. "You know I beat you because I played you
naked, which made me fast and streamlined."

"I would think your junk wiggling around would be slowing you down," Larry
laughed. He tousled Aiden's hair as they headed for the pool.

Aiden didn't object. Instead he kept up his line of chatter. "I love this
all-day naturist thing."

"You're a naturist most of the time, anyway," Larry pointed out.

"But not for dinner or for breakfast the last two days. The only place I
haven't been naked is in most of the yard. But I kicked my soccer ball
around behind the house wearing just my shoes. And I sat naked on the dock
after dark until I got a little cold. Being a nudist is so fun!"

FRIDAY, AUGUST 31

Aiden wished that the back yard wasn't exposed to the lake or that parts of
it could also be seen from the road. He, Miles, and Gordy were shooting
baskets on the small concrete court in back. The court was hidden from the
road, but it could be seen from the lake, so nude shooting was not
possible. But, shooting in underpants and tennis shoes was, which was
almost as good.

"Hey, at least my briefs keep my goods in place," Miles said. "I shoot
better if they're not bouncing and flopping around."

Miles and Gordy were both good little basketball players. Aiden had shown a
lot of growth in the sport by putting in hard work on his court. He also
had dribbling drills that he could do in the basement. Playing intramural
basketball at school the previous year gave him the experience of playing
on a team. Aiden was a good athlete and he learned quickly during the brief
intramural season.

"You need to turn out for basketball at the middle school," Gordy told
Aiden.

"I've only played a little," Aiden protested.

"Just about as much as everybody else. And you've been good when we've
played. Hey, the worst that can happen is that you get cut, right?"

Aiden nodded.

"Let's go swimming," Miles said.

"We can't until daddy comes home." While Aiden had no problem bending
rules, there were two sets of rules that were inviolate: the swimming pool
rules and the bicycle rules. "He said he'd be home by two"

"Then let's go on the patio and play naked ping pong."

Before they could move Larry appeared above them on the deck.

"Swim time!" Aiden screeched. The boys ran for the door to the pool
area. Off came the shoes, off came the underpants, and into the water went
three naked boys. The three of them weren't going to don clothes again
until the next morning.

Mason showed up about a half-hour after dinner. "My mom makes me so mad,"
he moaned as he stripped naked. Nobody was surprised to see his two-inch
nail sticking proudly into the air. "I could have been here all day, but
nooooo, I have to stay with Mrs. Dumbutt because my mom already arranged
it. So I get to sit around all day reading and watching TV and helping with
whatever kind of shit she wanted help with. I didn't even have a minute to
play with my cock and I had to wear all my clothes all the time. I mean, my
mom couldn't pick up the phone and cancel me going there? You'd think she
would have been happy to have me here all day and not have to pay for it."

"Aiden, do you want to shut his mouth or do you want me to do it?" Miles
asked.

Aiden waved his semi-hard cock in Mason's face and soon found it hard and
in Mason's mouth. "It's hard to talk people to death when you've got a cock
in your mouth," Miles told Gordy, as if he didn't know.

That night the four boys slept in the basement. Since Miles and Mason slept
together a lot and since Mason had given Aiden a blow job, Mason slept with
Gordy and Aiden slept with Miles. Some so-called wise man once said that
prepubescent boys have been known to sleep together naked and not get
sexual. Turns out that he was wiser than many thought because this was one
of those nights.

SATURDAY, SEPTEMBER 1

The four boys were up and awake by eight-thirty. The smell of cooking bacon
no doubt was one of the reasons for that. Miles, Mason, and Gordy all
wished Aiden Happy Birthday. Mason gave Aiden eleven kisses on his bare
ass. "Way better than getting spankings," Mason grinned. Aiden agreed.

They decided to put off showers until after eating. Larry and Phil led the
other three boys in singing Happy Birthday to the birthday boy. The two
dads each gave Aiden a hug, not caring about his nudity. Rules were relaxed
on such an important day.

The naked boys wolfed down a breakfast of pancakes, scrambled eggs, and
bacon. Gordy, Miles, and Mason helped with the cleanup. Aiden offered to
help, but that was nixed by his friends. "It's your birthday so it's
against the law for you to work," Miles said. "Go in the rec room and jerk
off while we help your dads." Larry and Phil couldn't stop themselves from
laughing.

"Well, why not?" Miles asked. "He's eleven. That's like just about in
puberty and everybody knows what happens then."

After Aiden's friends finished helping, they found Aiden on his recliner
playing with his hard little cock, just like he was commanded to do. "Damn,
Aiden, what if your dads catch you?"

"I heard what you said," Aiden grinned. "And it is my birthday. But I
wasn't gonna do it all the way unless you guys took forever. Let's go
downstairs and shower."

Phil entered the masturbation room and noted Aiden's hard cock. "I can't
help it...it just got that way," Aiden told his dad with mock innocence as
the three boys left the room and went down to the basement to shower.

The birthday party guests started to arrive just before noon. Lenny and
Lance were the first to arrive. Aiden greeted them at the door and told
them they could change downstairs and head for the pool. Trent was the next
to come with Muddy showing up a few minutes later. Yonder, Collin, and
Jared came within minutes of each other.

Kalie and Donna were next. "The token girls," as Phil put it. One other
girl was with them, however, and that was Kalie's cousin Gretchen along
with Gretchen's brother, Ian.

Right after Aiden sent them downstairs, a car pulled up into the driveway
that he didn't recognize. But as soon as a boy wearing a baseball hat that
partly covered a pile of red hair got out, he knew who it was. "Keith!"
Aiden called out as the Kentburg boy walked up the steps to the front
door. "I thought you weren't going to be able to come."

Keith surprised Aiden by giving him a hug. "I thought so too, but plans
changed. Happy Birthday, Mayfield sucker."

"Thanks, Kentburg sucker."

Keith was already wearing his board shorts. He had a change of clothes in
his backpack. Aiden was about to escort him downstairs when another car
pulled into the driveway—it was Nolan. Larry saw the conflict that Aiden
had about which way to turn. He helped his son solve it by leading Keith
downstairs.

Aiden ran down to the driveway and gave Nolan a big hug as soon as his
friend planted his feet on the concrete. He wanted to plant a kiss on his
lips, as well, but was afraid of incurring the wrath of Judge Moyer,
Nolan's father.

Nolan retrieved his backpack from the backseat and started to the house
with Aiden. He was surprised when his father turned off the car's engine
and followed them up to the house.

"Are you going to spy on me for mom?" Nolan asked.

"Calm down, son. I'll be out of your hair quickly. I just want to talk over
a couple of things with Larry and Phil while we have the time and
opportunity."

"Now you're sounding like a lawyer."

"Or maybe more like a judge," Paul laughed. "Remember, it keeps food on the
table."

When they got into the house, Aiden said that Nolan could change into his
swimming shorts in the basement. Nolan asked if he could change in Aiden's
bedroom. "I have something to tell you," he said excitedly, "and I want to
tell you in private."

Aiden wondered what Nolan's big secret could be as they bounded up the
stairs to Aiden's bedroom. As soon as they entered the room, Aiden closed
the door. The two boys stood a couple of feet apart stared at each other,
taking in every detail as if not taking their eyes off of each other would
make up all of the time since they last seen each other.

Nolan moved first, stepping toward Aiden and planting a kiss on his
friend's lips. Aiden wrapped his arms around Nolan as the two tweens kissed
hard, their tongues pushing together. "Happy Birthday, Aiden," Nolan
whispered as they came up for air.

"What's the big secret?" Aiden asked hoarsely. He looked up at Nolan
wondering how he ended up in the same room as the most beautiful boy in the
world on his birthday. Aiden let go of Nolan and sat on his bed, waiting
for the answer.

Nolan pulled off his shirt, giving Aiden a chill as he displayed his
athletic chest. He was getting some muscle definition along with the
beginnings of a six-pack. He yanked off his shorts and boxers. Without a
word he had stripped naked in front of his friend. "I better get in my swim
shorts in case our dads yell at us to come downstairs."

Aiden nodded. He liked Nolan's good thinking, but the sight of the raw,
naked beauty in front of him left him speechless. He wanted to pull off his
board shorts and give Nolan a naked hug and a French kiss. Instead he sat
motionless, looking into Nolan's crack, seeing the star of his anus as
Nolan reached into his backpack and pulled out his swimming suit. It was
the suit he wore when he went for swimming lessons—not quite a Speedo,
but much more revealing of Nolan's lanky legs than board shorts would be.

Aiden was overwhelmed with feelings he didn't understand. What he felt for
Nolan was so different from what he felt for Miles, or Mason, or Lance, or
Lenny, or even his best friend Gordy. He would have taken Nolan being able
to spend the coming night sleeping with him as his only birthday present,
which sounded so dumb to him he couldn't believe he thought it and so right
to him he wondered why it seemed dumb. Confusion reigned in Aiden's young
adolescent mind keeping him from coming up with comprehensible thoughts.

He broke his momentary brain lock by asking Nolan once again what his
secret was. And then he thought that Nolan looked just as good in his blue
swimming trunks as he had naked, maybe better.

Nolan sat on the bed next to Aiden. "You're coming to my birthday party,
right?" Nolan's birthday was October 29.

"Well, yeah. We're best friends. You don't know how much I want to be
there."

"Yes, I do. You want to be at my birthday party as bad as I wanted to be
here at yours."

"I just wish you could spend the night."

"I can't and it sucks, but now it's time for my big news. I've got this all
planned out. My party is going to be on Saturday and somebody I really like
a lot is going to be invited to spend Friday night before the party."

"Who?"

Nolan placed his right hand on Aiden's left shoulder. "You, doofus."

Aiden yanked his head hard to his left. "For real? Your mom agreed we can
have an overnight? I mean, like totally for real?"

"So for real it makes me want to dance. I've known for a few days but I
wanted to tell you at your Birthday party to make it a Birthday present."
Aiden planted a long, wet kiss on Nolan's right cheek. "And there's
more. My dad said we can go to a movie together that night and go to dinner
together. It will be like a big celebration for my birthday and for my
getting my first overnight."

It sounds almost like a date, Aiden wanted to say. Because he was afraid it
would be the wrong thing to say, he said nothing. Going out to celebrate
Nolan's birthday and his first overnight was what two best friends did, but
going out on a date sounded gay. Once again, confusion roiled around
Aiden's brain.

"I'm so excited about doing this I almost can't stand it," Nolan said.

"Me too. I don't know if I can wait—I mean it's two months away."

"Aiden, are you going to come down and be with your guests," Larry yelled
out. The moment was gone. For Aiden everything suddenly felt normal. But
not so normal that Aiden and Nolan couldn't share a quick kiss before going
downstairs for the party.

Aiden's birthday party was all he dreamed it would be. His friends were
there, the weather was sunny and upper seventies, games were played,
hamburgers and all that went with them were eaten with gusto, Happy
Birthday was sung, candles were blown out and cake and ice cream was
consumed.

There was even a wee bit of sexual action in the back room of the
basement. Of course, Mason was involved in two of the episodes, showing
Keith what an expert blow job was about and giving Ian a reprise of the
first time he sucked him. Trent and Muddy, who arrived late, got naked to
compare the growth of their pubic hair and jerked off to compare the output
of their testicles.

The last bit of sex play involved Gordy and Kalie. They made out on the old
couch for about fifteen minutes. Gordy removed Kalie's bikini top so they
would be equal before they got to work kissing and feeling each other
up. The fun was interrupted by Gretchen and Donna coming into the back
room. The interruption came a couple of minutes after Gordy creamed his
swim trunks as well as Kalie's hand as she jerked him to orgasm, but before
Gordy could reciprocate.

"When are you going to make me cum?" Kalie asked.

"I can try now, I guess." Gordy had just dropped from his sexual high. What
he really wanted to do was go back to the pool. When Gretchen and Donna
entered the room they saw Gordy rubbing Kalie's pussy though her bikini
bottom.

"Ohhh, look at what Gordy's doing to my cousin," Gretchen squealed. "I wish
he'd do that to me."

"You are all nasty," Donna said.

"I think I'm going swimming," Gordy said. Between his down moment and
suddenly being surrounded by girls, he felt very uncomfortable. He pulled
his hand away from Kalie's crotch, straightened his swimming trunks, hoping
Gretchen and Donna wouldn't see the wet spot in them, and left the
room. Since Gordy's trunks were damp, the girls didn't see anything. They
did have to listen to Kalie tell them how mad she was at being
interrupted. She didn't tell them about what she'd done to Gordy, however.

Aiden had specified no presents or money on his invitations and that was
honored. He did get one very special present—the invitation to spend the
night with Nolan in two months. Aiden thought it didn't get any better than
that.

He got the usual quota of clothes from his dads. That wasn't a surprise
since he helped pick everything out. He received a scarf from his
Grandmother Jennifer. She knit it in the Mayfield Mustang blue and
white. The big present was a FIFA video soccer game. Aiden knew that it was
going to get a lot of use, especially since his best friends all knew that
he had it. When Nolan's dad picked Nolan up at the end of the party, Nolan
got Aiden to promise to bring his game. "Just in case, I don't get my own
for my birthday," he said.

Aiden cuddled up with Horace on his birthday. He thought it was his best
birthday ever. At times he was still amazed as to how many good friends he
had.

SUNDAY, SEPTEMBER 2

After Larry, Phil, and Aiden finished with eating breakfast and cleaning
up, they rode to Centralia in the Honda Accord to catch the 10:02 train to
Seattle. The train's scheduled arrival time in Seattle was 11:50 with the
Mariner game slated to start at 1:10.

The train arrived at King Station in Seattle on time. Troy was there to
guide the three to the nearby parking garage where he was parked. They
locked their suitcases in the trunk of Sue's Subaru, which was parked next
to the SUV, and walked to Safeco Field to meet the rest of the
family. Safeco was less than a mile walk from King Street Station. The
trains coming from the south passed right under the stadium roof when it
was in the open position.

With the day being sunny and warm, the roof was in the open position. Their
seats were in the Terrace Club, which was what the second deck area was
called, four rows up from third base. Aiden had packed his scorebook,
pencils, camera, radio, and headphones into his backpack. He had
Baseballreference.com set to go on his phone if he needed stats. He was
totally prepared to enjoy the game to the fullest.

Logan sat next to him eager to get lessons from his older cousin. Aiden
showed him what to do and Logan scored the bottom half of the sixth and the
top of the seventh. Chase wasn't interested in keeping score. He enjoyed
watching his brother and cousin do it and was more than willing to give his
unsolicited opinions on what they should be entering into the book.

Aiden also met Dillon, who was attending his first Mariner game. Dillon had
not been much of a sports fan, but as he hung around with Chase (which
seemed to be almost all of the time) the more interesting he found the
sports world—baseball in particular. His geeky mind was fascinated with
the methods used to score a baseball game. He watched Aiden and Logan and
asked tons of questions, which got him some friendly pokes from Chase. When
Aiden showed Dillon Baseballreference.com, Dillon was instantly on his way
to becoming a baseball stat head. Keeping Aiden's scorebook in the top of
the sixth was the highlight of the game for him.

Aiden had a great time on his after-birthday day. There were menus at the
seats and they could order from their seat and have their food delivered.
Aiden's Mariner dog (covered with mustard and chopped onions) was great and
the lemonade was cold. He taught Logan and Dillon how to keep score and was
able to use the time one of them kept the scorebook to take pictures. To
top it off, the Mariners won 4-2 to stay in second place two games behind
the Angels.

After the game they went out for pizza.  Aiden also received a couple more
birthday presents when they got to Chase's house. The kids and the adults
played games until the boys decided to get ready for bed.

The four boys slept in the basement recreation room. Sleeping bags were
laid out and clothes came off. Other than in the school showers, Dillon had
never been naked with anyone except Chase, Logan, and Logan's friend
Royce. He rarely showered at school since they were optional and on many
days there wasn't enough time to shower. Dillon thought that Aiden was a
beautiful boy, although not as beautiful as Chase.

All four boys had erections and the subject of their conversation was what
they planned to do about them. Aiden ended the talk by placing Chase's five
inches into his mouth. Damn, he thought to himself as he sucked and licked
his cousin's glans, I'm behaving just like Mason—just dive on a cock
with my mouth.

Chase was pleasantly surprised by Aiden's assertiveness. At first Logan and
Dillon weren't sure what to do. While they had jerked off together with
Chase and once with Royce and Chase, they had never touched each
other. That changed when Dillon went down on Logan's little cock. At first
he was afraid that Chase would yell at him for molesting his little
brother, but he knew that Logan and Chase gave each other blow jobs, so he
probably wouldn't care. He could tell right away that Logan liked it.

Sucking Logan's little hairless pecker, which was half as long as Chase's
big thing with its wisps of hair, was a whole new experience. Dillon liked
sucking it as much as Logan enjoyed getting sucked.

Aiden tried deep throating a cock for the first time. It was something he'd
heard about and read about online, but he hadn't seriously attempted it
with his friends. Trent or Muddy were the ones who were big enough to make
it a challenge. He gagged as he tried to get Chase's teen cock into his
throat and wished he'd practiced on his friends first. Aiden's experiment
didn't last long, but Chase complimented him for trying. Hatcher had been
the only boy who'd been able to deep throat his cock and Hatcher was now
out of his life.

Chase had the first orgasm, filling Aiden's mouth with his watery young
cum. Dillon was next—he'd been masturbating furiously as he sucked
Logan's cocklet. Seconds after Dillon shot his watery load onto his
sleeping bag, Logan had a dry cum.

"Looks like Aiden is the only one left. Who wants him?" Chase asked.

Logan and Dillon told Chase he could finish him off, although Logan wanted
to do his cousin badly. It didn't take Aiden much longer to have a dry cum;
he'd been pretty worked up from giving Chase his blow job and watching
Dillon suck off Logan next to him. Dillon and Logan each went into his own
sleeping bag, but Aiden and Chase slept together in the nude. There had
always been a special bond between the two cousins.

The lights went off. Aiden snuggled up next to his older cousin. "I want to
take your cherry someday," Chase whispered as his right index finger rubbed
along Aiden's crack. "Just you and me for your first time, nobody watching
or even knowing—not even Logan."

"Sorry, but it won't happen," Aiden whispered back.

"What, you're never going to try fucking?"

"I dunno. I used to not want to ever do it. Now I kind of wonder if maybe
I'll do it sometime. I mean, what you're doing feels good, and when anybody
rubs me back on my hole it feels good."

Chase's finger pushed against Aiden's grommet. "Does that feel good?"

"Yeah, real good."

"So, someday I can show you how to make it feel better."

"You sound like Sammy did. I guess if I ever do it, I'll let you do me. But
you won't be the first."

"Fair enough. I just want you since you're my favorite cousin. So, who gets
to be first?"

"I can't tell you. But if I ever do it, I know it's going to be him."

"Will I ever find out who it is?"

"When he does it, it's going to be because he's my boyfriend, so I guess
you'll know who it is."

Chase pushed his finger into Aiden's ass. "My cousin Aiden, the mystery
boy."

"Feels good," Aiden whispered sleepily.

Chase pulled his finger out. "Next time we're all alone I'll do it more. It
will get you ready for your unknown boyfriend. And I promise not to ask you
about fucking or anything. Just finger you and maybe rub my dick on your
ass. Just you and me."

"Yeah."

"But, you gotta promise me one thing."

"What?"

"That I can fuck...no...that I can make love to you after you've done the
nasty with the mystery boy."

Aiden wrapped his arm around the teen's muscular shoulder. "I promise," he
whispered just before falling asleep.

MONDAY, SEPTEMBER 3

Labor Day was busy beyond busy. Aiden and Logan went up to the bedrooms for
the first shower. Aiden liked being naked and showering with his younger
cousin. He loved Chase and Chase was special to him, but for Aiden, what he
said about Chase being like Sammy was true. Sometimes he was too much into
sex. Logan, on the other hand, reminded Aiden of himself. He liked messing
around, he liked sex stuff, but he didn't have to have it all the time. In
other words, Aiden could just shower with Logan and think his cousin's
naked body was sexy, but that didn't mean he'd have to get off with
him. Aiden was sneaking into puberty, but so far his sex drive usually
matched his younger ten-year-old cousin more than his older
thirteen-year-old cousin.

Chase and Dillon were standing naked in the bathroom, ready to shower, when
Aiden and Logan finished. Aiden wondered if they were going to mess around,
but their shower was even shorter than the one he and Logan had taken,
which he took to be a no answer to his mental question.

After breakfast, Royce and his father arrived. They would be going to the
ballgame with the Millers. Since it wasn't even ten o'clock, yet, and the
game started at 1:15, they came to pick up Logan, who would go to the game
with them. They would meet up in their Terrace Club seats which were five
rows up just to the third base side of home plate.

Phil parked the SUV in a parking garage and Sue headed to Safeco Field with
Chase and Dillon. Larry, Phil, Troy, and Aiden went to King Street
Station. They checked the estimated arrival time of Cascades 517 from
Vancouver BC on the arrivals board. It was scheduled to arrive at 11:00 and
was due at 11:15.

Aiden jumped with glee when he saw Darnell Carr enter the station with his
father, Tyson. They had boarded the train in Bellingham and were part of
the big group. Aiden and Darnell babbled together during the entire walk to
Safeco field, while Larry, Phil, and Troy chatted with their old boyhood
friend.

"Thanks for the Happy Birthday email," Aiden said to Darnell. "I liked all
of the icons and emojis and stuff."

"I wish I could have come down for your party, but you have to be twelve to
ride the train alone."

Darnell caught Aiden up on his love life. "My friend Conrad and me suck
each other every chance we get. We had an overnight on Friday and he tried
to stick his wienie in my butt."

"For real? You let him?"

"Well, I was going to let him, but he couldn't get it in. It hurt me too
much. He said we're going to have to learn more about it before we can do
it."

"What about his big brother? Couldn't he tell you guys?"

"He lets us give him blow jobs and returns some of them, but he says
fucking is what a boy does to a girl. So, we need to figure out something
else.

"That's what the internet is for," Aiden giggled.

"I've kind of got a new friend, too. My dad has a new boyfriend who has a
nine-year-old son. He's pretty cool and a really good soccer player. He's
like Asian and black mixed and is really cute. I wouldn't mind messing
around with him, but so far we don't know each other good enough. But I
think we're getting to be good friends. His name is William, but he says
it's okay if I call him Bill."

Tyson caught his old friends up on his love life. "This bisexual business
is crap," he told them. "I don't mind dating one or the other, but the hell
if I could figure out who I want a long-term relationship with. Then
somebody gave me the answer."

"You mean you've got something big going?" Troy asked.

"I do for now. He teaches math and is the head football coach at
Mt. Shuksan High School. He's Korean and African American mix. He's a great
guy. And Darnell and his son William, who is nine, seem to get along really
well. Anyway, we've been dating some and our two families have started
doing things together. Don't know if it will go anywhere, but we've been
talking about what he might want to do."

The group reached Safeco and headed for the left field gate. Troy had the
tickets and they all went in. The kids got Cameron Michaels
t-shirts. Michaels played left field for the Mariners and had led the team
in hitting the year before.

Royce joined the scorekeeping group after watching and learning how it was
done. Logan scored the top of the third and the bottom of the sixth, Dillon
did the bottom of the fourth, Darnell did the top of the fifth and Royce
did the bottom of the fifth. Darnell already knew how to keep a scorebook,
although not as well as Aiden.

It was another great day for Aiden. Food, baseball, scoring, baseball,
friends, fun, baseball, food, baseball, photographing, baseball, all topped
by another Mariner win—this one 7-3 with Michaels making his young fans
happy by hitting his 32nd home run of the season.

After the game the group went to the waterfront and ate at the Crab
Pot. After eating, Royce and his dad left for home. Everyone else went to
the SUV, where Phil, Larry, and Aiden retrieved their overnight bags after
which they all walked to King Street Station.

Aiden and his dads would be riding the 507, which left at 6:10, back to
Centralia. Tyson and Darnell would be riding the 518 up to Bellingham. It
was scheduled to depart at 6:40 and was a through train originating in
Portland.

That night, after Larry read to him, kissed him on the forehead, and left
the room, Aiden looked up at the dark ceiling. He tried to imagine a more
perfect birthday weekend, but he couldn't do it. It consisted of tons of
friends, overnights, train rides, baseball, time with his amazing dads, an
invitation to spend the night with Nolan, and now some quiet time with
Horace, who was planted between Aiden and the wall. The only negative that
he could see was that school started on Wednesday, but even that didn't
keep him from falling asleep with a smile in his heart.
