Johnny was cuddled up to me as usual. I hope our relationship never ends. I just laid there looking at him, wondering how I got so lucky that my best friend and I are now boyfriends. This summer has been amazing all because we have this relationship. I know that there have be horrible things that have happened, but the good really out ways all of that. I just laid there stroking his hair thinking how good this relationship has been for me. I am grateful for all he and his family has done for me. I mean I have been at their house almost all summer and eating their food. I wish this was my family. I love the heat coming off his body as well. I caress his shoulder and run my fingers down his back. He slowly wakes up. "Good morning." He says sleepily and smiling. "Good morning, how'd you sleep?" I asked him. "Yeah, I had the weirdest dream though." He said. "Oh, what was it about?" I asked. "Not a hundred percent sure. I know we were in the woods and were running from something or someone. I couldn't make out what it or who it was. We just kept running. Eventually we came upon a high cliff and just as whatever it was that was chasing us was coming itn view, you woke me up. Kinda weird, huh?" he said with a smile. "Yeah, well at least I woke you up." I said looking at you. "What to do today?" He laid there playing with my nipple. "Well we have to do something with Billy and James, so let one of them decide." He said. "What do you remember of Billy?" I asked. "Not much. He is average I guess, has red hair and blue eyes. Had lots of freckles across the bridge of his nose. Not bad looking for a red head, was cute actually." He said as a matter of fact. "That about sums him up. I never really talked to him either in school except when I was his lab partner that one time. I still didn't get to know him though." I said. I just caressed him and kissed his the top of his head as he played with my nipple. I wonder if this will work out with James and Billy. If it does should we stop thinking about the long haired boy hunt? Would it be fair for us to get James involved with either Tim or Billy and then we find the long haired boy and he dumps whoever he is with for him? I don't think James will fall in love with any of these two that quickly, but they might for him. He is a great guy and from what I have experience a good lover. "I have to go to take a piss. Come with me." Johnny said with a smile. I just got up and followed him to the rest room to piss. Being kids as we still are we were sword fighting a bit giggling. Johnny leaned in and kissed me. When done we jumped in the shower and did our thing. Me washing him and then him washing me. As much as I wanted to get him off this morning. My mind was not into it that much. I was more concerned what Billy will do once we are altogether today. After all I'm just guessing that he is gay. We got out and dried each other off and got dressed. We went down to eat breakfast. "Good morning boys, what you too misfits doing today?" Mrs. Jenkins asked as we enter the kitchen. "Not much just meeting James and Billy to hang out." James said getting cereal and bowls out. I got the milk, OJ and some glasses and spoons out. "Yeah we aren't sure what we will be doing. We'll decide once we're all together. "Ok, well, be home by five at the latest. We are having beef paprika for dinner tonight." She said as she left the room. We started to eat and a short time later Sam came in. "Morning munchkins. We need to go shopping for supplies this weekend for our camping trip. Leo you should go home at some point and get your camping gear and bring it over here so we have it." Sam said grabbing a bowl and glass. "Ok I'll grab it on Friday when I go home for a bit." I said and finished my cereal. "Great." Sam said starting to eat his breakfast. Johnny and I finished up and put our dishes in the sink. We went outside and Johnny called Billy. "Hi, is Billy home?" he asked. "Hold please." The girl said, must be his sister. "Hello, this is Billy." He said. "Hi, this is Johnny from school." He said. "Yeah, what can I do you for?" he asked. Johnny blushed thinking dirty. "See Leo, James, and I are going to meat up at the park today and was wandering if you wanted to join us. We can do pretty much anything you want to do." He said. "Okay, I can meet with you guys. Which park?" "Great lets meet at the park on the corner of second and Bellevue, say around ten?" Johnny said. "Great. I ride over and meet you by the swings." Billy said. "Well James knows to meet us at ten so let's go get some drinks and meet them. We have about an hour to be there. Let's head to Prairie Stop and get a drink." Johnny said. "Okay, fine with me." I said. We both got on our bikes and headed to Prairie Stop. We went in and got some pops. One for the four of us. I was getting pops out of the cooler and when I turned around I saw the long haired boy at the counter. "Johnny look." I pointed at the counter. "That's him. Quick." He said and just when we started to head that way a bunch of adult softball players came in and separated us from the long haired boy. By the time we made our way through them he was gone. "Damn." Johnny said. "That was him. He has to live close to here." I said with excitement as I put the pops on the counter to pay for them. We got the pops and headed to our bikes. We arrived at the park with twenty minutes to spare. We went to the swings to and waited for the other two to arrive. Once again James arrived before the fourth of our group. "Hi James. Guess what?" I said. "What Billy not coming?" he said sounding a little saddened. "Nah, we saw that long haired boy at the Prairie Stop when we stopped for our pops. But we were blocked by a bunch of softball players. Once we got through them he was gone." Johnny said. "Really. So if he was at the Prairie Stop again he has to live close by." James said with a grin thinking. "Yeah, but no one has said they have seen him or any of them." I replied. "What should we do today?" Johnny asked. "I think we will leave it up to James and Billy to decide that." I said. James started thinking. A short time later Billy came riding up on his bike. "Hey Billy, how you been this summer?" asked Johnny as he came to a stop. "Yeah, how's it going?" I said. "Hey Billy." James said with a smile. "Hey guys. What you all been doing this summer?" asked Billy with a curious look. "Sorry for what happened to you James." He said. "Don't worry about it. Connor and the other two have a preliminary hearing in a couple of weeks." James said a little saddened by the subject. "Well, what you guys want to do?" Billy said trying to change the subject to hopefully something better. "Do you have any suggestions?" I asked. Both James and Billy looked like they were in deep thought about it. "We can go to your house and play ps4." Johnny said looking at me. "Yeah, no one is home I'm sure." I said. James smiled and nodded his head. "We can play Call of Duty." Johnny said. "Okay, that sounds good, just know I suck at first person shooters." Billy said with a smile. We rode over to my house. I haven't been home in over a month. Funny no one texted me to see if I was alive. Not Sarah or Kent. Oh well, I have a new family sort of. We pulled up to my house all laid our bikes down and I unlocked the door. "Anyone home?" I yelled. "Where the hell have you been?" asked Sarah a little pissed off. "At Johnny's I told you this in the note on the fridge. Besides you have my cell if you really worried about me you could have called or texted me. So quit trying to act like you are concerned for me. Geez." I spat back. "I was just wondering where you were, sorry for trying to care about you." She said sarcastically. "Don't worry about me I'm fine. So is the donor still around or Kent?" I asked calming down. "No dad stays at the firehouse all the time and Kent just comes over on Fridays to pay bills and then heads to Tim's house. He's been staying with him mostly. I really only stopped into check on things here and do some laundry. I've been hanging out at Sally's as that is where I have been all summer. Call or text me if you need me. I still love you." She said as she headed out the door. "I will if I need anything. Love you." I said. "Geez your family is weird." Billy said. "Long story." I said not wanting to tell more to him as we haven't been friends really. We went in the living room. "Let's bring your PS4 down here it is a bigger screen." Johnny said. "Okay, I'll go grab it, come help Johnny." I said as we ran upstairs to my room. There was five envelopes just inside my door that have been slipped under it. I picked them up and put them on my desk. Johnny started to unhook the PS4. I logged in and checked my email as I haven't really paid attention to is since I have been staying with Johnny all summer. There were some hate emails that as soon as I knew that was what they were I moved onto the next email. Nothing really interesting in them. There is one from Kent, but I didn't read it. Thought it best not to bring myself down at this time. I opened the envelopes that were under my door. Each one had a $100 bill in them and a note from dad that just simply said 'Sorry Love Dad'. I threw the envelopes and notes away without a second thought. Put the hundreds in my wallet. "So how long should we stay up here to give those to some time together?" I asked with a smile. "Don't know let me see if I can hear anything from the top of the steps." He replied as he crept to the top to see if he could hear anything. - James - I sat on the arm chair and Billy sat on the couch. We just sat there for a bit. "So Billy, you have any girlfriends?" I asked. "No not really. There were some cute girls in class, but none I wanted to be with. How about you?" he asked back. "No none." I said. He must not have heard about what happened between me and Connor over the start of summer. We sat for a bit more in silence waiting for Leo and Johnny. "So what kinda things you like?" he asked with a smile. "Well, I like swimming and thinking of going out for the swim team next year with Leo. Um, I like lacrosse, football and basketball. I will definitely going out for those next year. Can't wait for school to start. What about you? What do you like?" I replied. "Well I like to run and swim and will probably go out for track and swimming. I just don't know about the whole showering with everyone is going to be. That makes me nervous. I suppose you and Johnny have been over that for years as you both play sports for a while." He replied. I got up and moved over to the couch to test the waters and see how we would react to me getting closer. He was on the right side of the couch and I sat in the middle. When I did he tensed up a bit and scooched over as far as he could. I didn't press it and scooched back a bit from him. "So are you anxious for school to start?" I asked. He sat there for a minute. "Well kinda. I know it'll be a new experience and will be many new faces as we are now joining all the kids from all the other grade schools. I just never fit in anywhere, so I am scared also." He said little nervously. "Why are you scared? Don't you have any friends to hang out with?" I asked. "When Johnny called me that was the first time anyone has called me to hang out with them all summer. So I'm hoping to meet new friends, it's just that I'm really bad at making friends." He replied looking at the floor. "Why haven't you made any friends if you don't mind me asking?" I asked. "I don't know. Just seems like no one ever liked me around, like I'm a nuisance or something. So after Chad left in the second grade I never really made new friends. Do you remember Chad?" he asked. "No he must have been in the other second grade class. Well what other things are you into?" I asked. He sat and thought for a bit. "I like movies, games, and books. I'm a really good reader, but I guess that is cause I'm a loaner mostly." He replied. I scooched closer to him. "I like those things too. I also play Football, lacrosse and baseball. You play or played any sports?" I asked. "I played little league, but sucked at it. I'm not that coordinated." He said with a chuckle. "Have you tried any other sports?" I asked putting my hand on his knee. He didn't move his knee away or push my hand away. "No, like I said I'm not that coordinated to play sports. I am more a reader and gamer that and sports player." He said with a smile. He looked at me and I had the urge to kiss him. I leaned in and put my lips on his. We were like that for a few seconds and he jumped up and punched me in the mouth. "Sicko!!" he yelled and ran out of the house. - Leo - "Oh shit, something is going on down there." Johnny yelled at me and we both took off down the stairs. We ran into the living room. "What happened?" "I botched this one. I kissed him and he punched me." James said holding the side of his mouth. "What you do that for?" I asked. "Well we were getting to know each other and we was talking and I put my hand on his knee and he didn't react to it. So I figured kiss him." He replied with a weak chuckle. "I take it he didn't like that. Did he leave?" Johnny asked. "Yeah he ran out of the house." James said. I ran out the front door to see if he left or was still out there. He was gone and his bike was gone too. I went back into the house. "He gone. Johnny call him later and see what happened." I said. "Why you don't believe me?" James said looking hurt. "No, it's not that. I just want to make sure that he is alright." I said trying to diffuse the situation. "Okay. Well what do you want to do now? A fun game like at Johnny's were the looser does what the winner wants?" James asked. "Well if we do that I can order some pizzas and we can have a pizza party here, but we have to be back to Johnny's by five for dinner. Or we go out to eat and head to the swimming hole. Which do you two prefer?" I asked. "Well I'm up for whatever you want to do. But swimming sounds fun." Johnny said. "Well I don't have a swim suit with me, can I borrow one from you Leo?" James asked. "Yeah I got something you two can both wear. So is that what we doing?" I asked. "Well let's get our swim suits on and we'll get going." Johnny said. We ran upstairs and changed in to our swim suits. "Where you two want to eat lunch, I'm buying." I said. "I like Burger King." James said with a smile. "Burger King it is then." Johnny said with a smile. We left my house and jumped on our bikes and headed to Burger King. I paid and we laughed and had fun. Once done we stopped at Prairie Stop to get some drinks. We didn't run into the long haired boy this time. We then headed to the swimming hole. "Sorry it didn't work out with Billy." I said to James. "That's ok. I think I'll call Tim tomorrow and see what he is up to." James replied with a grin. "Well I'm still hoping to find the long haired boy for you too, but we don't even know if he is gay or not." Johnny said. "I know, but on the off chance he is, I want to meet him." James replied. "Besides I got a vibe from him when we bumped into each other." He said smiling. "We'll keep looking." I replied with a smile. We arrived at the swimming hole a little after noon and there was a lot of kids there swimming already. We found us a spot to put our towels and drinks. All three of us raced to jump in the water. We splashed and tried to dunk each other. We even raced each other to the floating dock and back. I won both times. We stayed at the hole for four hours. "We should get going." I said looking at Johnny. "Yeah, James you coming or staying here?" Johnny asked. "I'm going to hang out here for a bit. I'll catch you tomorrow." James said staring at a boy in the water. "Just stay safe." I said heading to our bikes. Johnny and I left James at the swimming hole. We headed to his house to be ready for dinner. - James - After Johnny and Leo left me I sat there checking out the other boys. There are a lot of them with nice bodies. I was day dreaming when my phone rang. It was a number I didn't recognize. I answered "Hello?" "Hi, is this James?" asked the voice on the other end. "Yes it is. What can I do you for?" I responded. "Can we meet? Somewhere private." The voice asked. "Who is this?" I asked. "Can we meet?" he asked again more impatiently. "Well I don't even know who you are, so I'm not meeting you anywhere until I know who you are." I said getting annoyed. "Let's just say you won't be disappointed. Now where can we meet?" He said getting impatient. "Let's meet at the food court in the mall first and we can find somewhere private from there." I said getting more irritated with the caller. "Fine I'll meet you there, but you better be alone and I'll come to you." He said really irritated by the whole conversation. "When you want to meet?" I asked now that he gave in to a public meeting. "Can you be there in thirty minutes?" he asked. "Yes I can, but who are you?" I asked again. He just hung up. I gathered my things and got on my bike. I texted Leo and told him what just happened and told him he was meeting this stranger at the mall in thirty minutes. "Well, be careful. There are weirdos out there that would hurt a good looking boy like you." Leo replied. "I will. If you don't hear from me in two hours call me." I said partially joking and partially serious. I sped off to the mall. I arrived five minutes early and went to the food court. I bought a pop and sat at one of the tables to wait. I looked at the clock on my phone, it has been forty-five minutes. Where is this guy? Maybe I should just leave. Great waiting on a stranger and the idiot is a no show. I look at my phone it has been an hour now, and I have been waiting here for thirty minutes. I give up and stand up. I start to walk towards the exit. As I start to move a guy in a hoody come up to me and grabs me by my arm and drags me along with him. "Hey what you doing?" I said a little scared. "Shut up and let's go to the restroom at the other end of the mall. We can talk there." He said in a quiet voice trying not to draw any more attention than he may already have. We walk at a brisk pace toward the far end of the mall. He lets go of my arm shortly after leaving the food court area. I follow him at a brisk pace trying to keep up with him. I keep thing to run and not go any further as I have no idea who this is. But, my curiosity wants to know what this is about and who this guy is. We get to the bathrooms where few people go as they use them for sex. We enter and he quickly starts checking all the stalls to make sure that no one is around. "Alright what is the about and why did you drag me here?" I asked a little annoyed. He just paced a bit back and forth. I watched him, there is something very familiar with him, it's his walk where have I seen that walk before. "Who are you and what you want from me? Start talking or I'm leaving." I said more sternly. "Okay then I'm out of here." I said and started for the door. Just as I reached to put the door open he turned me around and kissed me. I was shocked at first, as I looked into his eyes I realized it was Kyle. I kissed him back for a bit, then pushed him away. "What the FUCK Kyle? What are you trying to do?" I said at a louder tone, not quite yelling. He put his head down and started to pace again. I grabbed his shoulders and help him still. He just kept looking down at the ground. "Talk to me or I'm leaving." I said a little annoyed at his lack of communication to me. He started to cry. "I went to see Connor at juvy." He said starting to cry more. "Why the FUCK would I care. You do know why he is in there right? I still have pain in my side every now and then." I said getting made that he is here. What the hell was I thinking, I should just leave before he does something to me. He just kept sobbing. "I know why he did that to you. I know what happened to him that made him so angry." He said trying to control his tears. I just looked at him and wondered if I should listen to him or just walk away. Do I really care why he did that to me anymore? Is there any reason for me to care? He was my best friend, but what he did to me was very unforgivable. Before I knew it I said "Why?" "There is two reasons for it. First our stepfather caught you to making out, ever since then he started to rape him. Telling him that if he's gay then he would use him and there was nothing he could do about it. This went on for several months until he got arrested. I never knew it until the other day when I went to see him. He said it was you who started things between you two so it was your fault that he was raped. I told him he is full of shit and that he should have told me or mom that it was happening. He said he tried." He said really fast trying to stop his crying. I listened and felt my heart sink. I can't believe he wouldn't have told me. I don't know what I could have done, but I would have tried something. I looked at Kyle "What was the second reason he did what he did?" I asked. "He caught us making out that one time he was trying to tell me about it. He felt really hurt and betrayed by us both. I told him it was nothing, just kissing and petting and that we didn't even get naked or pull out our junk. He said it was like you were stabbing him in the heart and he couldn't take it. I was just floored that he caught us, but didn't say anything about it. He should have at least still told me." He said trying to hold back more tears. I just stood there looking at him. "Thanks for telling me. This will not change what I feel about him or make me drop the charges." I said trying to not to cry. "I know, you can't anyways, I just wanted you to know that he was not in his right mind and he accepts what he did and will take and plead guilty when he goes to trial." He replied. "Good then he can get some help. Is he going to turn in your stepdad?" I asked more concerned that he will not and let him get away with what he did to him. "I don't know. He told me not to say anything to mom or anyone else about it. He is getting therapy in there at least." He said still not wanting to look at me. "Tell your mom what happened. That bastard doesn't get to get away with this. He needs to be punished for what he did to Connor. Don't let your brother down again." I said trying to reason with him. "But, he doesn't want me to tell her. He doesn't want to break her heart." He replied. "Man you are stupid. You need to tell her. She needs to know so she didn't raise him like this. She needs to know that her supposed lover raped her baby. Tell here!" I said getting angry with him cause he is trying to rationalize keeping this from his mother. He just looked at the floor and broke out crying again. The door opened and the guy looked as us and turned right back around and left the restroom. I went to him and hugged him. "Tell her or I will. She needs to know that the asshole she loves raped him. Don't let Connor down again. I can't let that happen." I said sternly at him trying to comfort him so I could leave. He just shook his head. "Okay, I see your point I'll tell her. Thanks for helping me through this." He said sniffling. Just then my phone let me know I had a text. "I will not forgive him for putting me in the hospital. That is just not going to happen. Did he say why the other two joined in with the beating?" I asked getting my cell phone out of my pocket. I looked and it was a text from an unknown number 'Can I see you in an hour at your house?' the sender asked. I quickly texted back 'If you know where I live I'll be there.' I put my phone back in my pocket. I don't have time to figure out who that was texting me. Kyle looked at me "He never said how or why the other two joined in, but I never asked either. I don't want you to forgive him, just wanted to put what happened in perspective of you. Connor doesn't want your forgiveness as well." he said looking depressed. "I have to get home. Thanks for telling me, that helps me to understand why he did what he did, but it was not me he should have beaten up." I said starting to turn around. I reached for the bathroom door and he again turned me and kissed me. I pushed him away. "What are you doing?" "I want you to know that I have thought of you ever since we made out. I want to be with you." He said trying to kiss me again. "Stop. This won't work. You are much older than me in less than a year you will be eighteen and will be illegal for us to be together. I'm sorry for leading you on when we made out, but I was hurting and you comforted me that day. I shouldn't have let it happen. Besides what would Beth think?" I said trying to exit again. He didn't stop me this time. He just said "I hope you change your mind. You kiss better than Beth." I smiled at him and left the bathroom. I went back to the exit where my bike was and rode home. When I got home I went to my room after making a sandwich and getting a pop. I texted Leo everything Kyle told me and that he was the one who wanted to meet me. He was just shocked at that news, but agreed that I shouldn't forgive him for that. About twenty minutes after getting home the doorbell rang. Mom answered it. I heard her talking to whoever it was and she told him that I was in my room and how to get there. There was a knock on my door. I opened it and I was shocked at who it was. "What are you doing here? I thought I chased you away." I said. - - - - - - - - - - - - Well who is at James's bedroom door? What will happen next? Less than a week till the big camping trip. Will Johnny and Leo find the long haired boy?
