Unfortunately for Toby he did not have a clear run. With his head full of excitement and his eyes focused on his telephone Toby didn't notice the pile of blankets, just outside his door placed there by his mother. It was too late to dodge the obstacle; Toby sailed through the air and landed with a winding thud next to his bedside table. "oh my God,,,..what stupid bastard!!!!!! Oh my guts!" whined Toby as he tried to regain his focus and his breath. It was then that something familiar caught his eye. Toby turned his head to look behind his bedside cupboard. "Oh I don't believe it!" Toby put his hand behind the cupboard, and reached for the familiar object. It was old and leathery, not to mention heavy. It was these factors that confirmed Toby's assumption. It was his diary. Toby 's curious dabble behind the cupboard turned into a confident retrieval. His heart warmed as a heavy weight fell from his shoulders, he held it tight to his chest and he let out a contented sigh. "whew, this is turning into quite a morning." ----------------------------------------------- New Begginings ----------------------------------------------- Later that evening..... Luke answers the door before David could ring the bell. He had been sitting near the window for the last half hour watching for David. Both boys were silent as they stared at each other in the doorway. " Is this uncomplicated enough!" laughed David - who was wearing baggy jeans, a soft sports top with long over hanging sleeve and, of course, his baseball cap. He cheekily smiled as he waited for Luke to acknowledge his joke. "I guess I will be able to fumble my way through it." Retorted Luke finally moving to one side and letting him in. Luke led Dave into the lounge room where Dave found a comfy spot. "Do you want a drink David?" "Yeah cool." David gave the room the once over; it was quite nice. Certainly more tidy than his. "Where is everybody Luke?" "Nick's staying at Alex's tonight and Mum and Dad are playing bridge with their work buddies." "so it really is just you and me tonight?" Luke came in with the drinks and some chips. "yep just you, me and the video" Luke jumped next to David and switched on the TV. Both boys made themselves comfy and pulled the quilt over them, that was lying over the back of the chair. David started to get the picture that Luke had this all planned. It was very cozy. David was lying with his feet on the couch and Luke was lying between his legs with his head on his chest. Luke pulled the quilt high under his chin. "I could lay here for ever." Said David putting his arms around Luke's neck and snuggling him into his chest. "Well if I get cramp we might have to." --------------------------------------------------- Back at Toby's ---------------------------------------------------- Craig and his family are sitting in the front room of Toby's house and they are discussing their up and coming trip. Toby and Craig are nearly pissing themselves with excitement. "We were thinking it would be a good idea if we brought Craig's bed over.?" Said Craig's Dad leaning over and placing his empty cup back on the tray. Toby's Dad was feeling a little better from his morning's sickness and almost seemed a little lighter. Toby couldn't help notice that he and his mother had been very lovey dovey all day. It was almost sickening. "I don't think there will be any need for that Steve, I imagine the boys can share Toby's bed, they normally sleep head to toe in it anyway and seem to get on ok. Toby was a bit surprised by his Dads reaction. It was not like him to suggest something like that. "I mean, the little buggers got a double bed! He cant be using all of it" laughed Toby's Dad. "Are you guys ok with that?" asked Craig's Mum Toby and Craig tried not to look too enthusiastic. "yeah, that will be ok as long as Toby keeps his hand off me." Everyone laughed. "Dad, is it ok if we go now I want to show Craig some stuff?" Toby had something planned "yeah, sure buddy, clean up your room while you're there." Smiled Toby's Dad. Toby and Craig began to climb the stairs to Toby's room. " What do you want to show me Tobs?" said Craig following his silent mate up the stairs. They entered Toby's room and they sat on his bed. "I want you to help me with something." "Sure matey!" said Craig reaching for Toby's fly . Toby laughed and pushed Craig's hand away. "no not that.not yet anyway!" Toby pulled his diary out from under his bed sheets. " I want you to help me burn my diary." Craig was silent; he couldn't believe what he had just heard. "Toby have you gone mad! What you want to do that for?" Toby pulled the garbage can out from next to his bed. "Im going to do it Craig!" "Toby, why?" "All my life, since I could write I have written in the diary. Every-little-thing. There isn't a day missing from my life in this book. I thought my parents had found this book today. All my secrets; all my thoughts. Before the camp, Craig, everything in this book was more of wish list than a record of what has happened. Toby stood and threw the diary into the can. Now my life is happening. I want to stop writing how I would like my life to be and start living it. " Craig stood and put his arms around his pal. "Well Tobs I guess its time to put this thing to rest." Toby began to cry as he lit the match. He lowered it down to his diary and dropped it onto the open pages. It flared in seconds and it was not long before the book was thoroughly engulfed in flames. Toby and Craig carefully lifted the smoking bin out onto Toby's veranda and closed the window. " I cant believe what you have just done Tobs. I never thought you would separate yourself from that diary." Toby was still sobbing. The anxiety had gone and it was replaced with a sense of peace. The two boys sat, once again, on Toby's bed. Toby had gone back to his normal self. Craig was still quite surprised that Toby was so calm. Craig placed his hand on Toby's knee as they made eye contact. The two boys moved close as if their lips had taken control of their movements. They softly kissed. The kiss was long and passionate. Neither boy came up for air; Toby put his hand under Craig's sweatshirt and began to explore his back and chest. Toby's Dad picked up a tray of coffee, placed a couple of cakes on a plate and made his way to staircase. Toby fell back and Craig laid on top of Toby. Still kissing, the boys didn' t show any intention of stopping. Toby had almost got Craig's Top off. Craig had pulled Toby's tracksuit trousers down a little and both their willies were erect and exposed. Toby's Dad sprung onto the top step. It was not long before he was at Toby' s open door......... --------------------------------------------------------- I hope you enjoyed this new addition to my story. A new part will follow soon.
