Gay/male, Young Friends Section (b/b) Soul - Mates by aR Jey Oliver walked through the empty corridors of the hospital. No doctors, no nurses, no other patients. What goes on here ? He felt the fear gripping his heart. Mom ! He has to go to her ! There are so much things he had to tell her! Thousands of memories raced through his mind, but he couldn't hold a single one of them. He remembered, mom telling him about the cancer. She told him, she would fight ! She would take him to Texas, to meet her family, like she promised earlier ! That's her room ! The door was open ! He felt strong arms, holding him back, as he tried to enter ! He heard the voices: "I'm sorry!" "She passed away....couldn't do anything... it was to late!" The tears started to well up in his eyes. Then the anger rised up in him and he cried out: "Noooo! Mom! Don't leave me ! You promised to fight ! Come back to me!" Suddenly his dad was there! "Ollie, Ollie ! All will be good ! We will go through this together!" He was pulled to his dads chest and hugged tightly. Slowly his surroundings changed, as he woke up. His body was covered with sweat, as he recognized his room. He was sitting upright in his bed. His dad was beside him, hugging him and stroking the back of his head. His head slumped down on his dads shoulder and he cried his heart out. He heard the soothing voice of his dad: "It's good Oliver ! Don't be embarrassed to cry ! I know it will help ! I am here if you need me !" Oliver whailed: "Oh, daddy ! Don't leave me ! Please don't let me alone !" "It's ok ! I stay here tonight ! Settle down a bit and try to sleep again ! I will sleep here in your bed tonight ! I don't want to be alone too, son !" Oliver felt the tiredness of his body again. He hadn't slept very much since the funeral, a week ago. The closeness of his dads body soothed him down and he fell back into a deep, thankfully dreamless sleep. He woke up late, the next day, from the sunlight shining through his window. He noticed his dad laying beside him. He sat up and looked down to him. He sure was no footballplayer or bodybuilder. He was a software-specialist working as professional advisor, for big companies in Germany. Oliver didn't see him as often as he wanted, for his job was very time-consuming. He saw his dark blond hair and his body, 170cm in height, 65kg in weight. He was no athlete in any way, more the intellectual type. He now noticed the tears on his dads cheeks. He knew it was hard for him, too. Dad tried to appear strong in front of him, but the role doesn't fit. Mom was the love of his life and he lost her. He couldn't mask the pain he felt, anytime he thought of her. They were married 15 years and all the time, they loved each other, like it was the day they first met. She came from Austin, Texas and came to Germany to get a job there. They both met each other fell in love and the rest is history. Oliver was in Austin, when he was a little kid, to meet her family, but he couldn't remember anyone of them. Sure there were the typical pictures and letters being sent and some telephone- calls, but it seemed, that his granddad was sure not very fond of the idea, as his little daughter decided to stay in Germany with her husband. Oliver just turned 14, two months ago. His short brown hair and green eyes showed that he was more after his mother in appearance. She was a p.e.teacher, with specialisation in swim-training and early started to give him lessons in it and soon he shared her enthusiasm in this sport. Although his body with 152cm and 44kg was still a little short for a boy his age, his body showed the definition the physical training had given him. Everybody tells him, what a handsome kid he was. Adults sometimes are so annoying. And not only the adults. All the girls that tried to date him,too. First he was shocked, as he realized that he wasn't interested in them. His thoughts always were about boys. It took him some time to realize that he was gay. After that he chatted with other youths in the same situation. He met them in the chat-rooms of web- sides, specially made for young homosexuals. He even felt something for a boy in the swim-team of his sport-club. At first little Markus was a little annoying. Oliver was one of the best swimmers in the team and Markus Stadler seemed to be his biggest fan. He always tried to be around him, as much as he could. After a while Oliver noticed how cute this little guy was. Markus was 12, just 140cm in height and weighed about 35kg. His blond hair was cut short, as usual for swimmers and he had shining blue eyes always fixed on him, whereever they met. It didn't take long for them to develop a steady friendship, though Oliver suspected that his fan wanted an even deeper relationship. He was so young ! Could a boy his age fall in love ? And could it be that he was gay, just like him, or was it just his own wishes that gave him this thoughts? He would have loved to talk with his mom about this, but her illness already broke out, back then and he didn't wanted to bother her with it. Sure, there was dad, but he was at work most of the time, so his mom was the one in his family, with whom he spoke about almost everything. She would have understood it and he wasn't sure how his dad would react, when he would tell him, that he was gay and in love with a boy. His dads stirring brought him back to reality from his deep thoughts. He stood up and went to the bathroom to take a shower. After he had finished and came back to his room, his dad stood there in his underpants, grabbing a towel to shower too. Instinctively his gaze flew to his dads briefs and he noticed that he sported a morning-boner. Oh, he finally found an athletic feature on him, he thought, as he saw the outlines of a really big erection, before his dad slung the towel around his waist and went to the shower. What was he thinking ? This was his dad ! He blushed fiercely, for he now realized that his briefs tented out above his 14cm erection. He got a boner from looking at his half-naked dad ! He quickly tried to calm down and got dressed. Twenty minutes later they sat in the kitchen and had breakfast. "So, what do you want to do today ? You know I have to work until we take our vacation ! Will you get along well alone, or should I give them a call and stay home?" his Dad said.Oliver knew that dad needed his work to overcome his mourning, so he decided it would be best to let him go. The vacation ! They will visit moms family ! He nearly forgot about that! " I think I will give Markus a call to come over ! Maybe we play a little on the pc ! Don't worry ! I will be fine!" he heard himself say. "It could be, that it takes a little longer today, Oliver ! So, why don't you ask Markus' mom,if he could stay overnight ?" dad said. "Yes, that would be great !" "Here are 50 Euro to spend ! Maybe you want to order a pizza or go see a movie !" "Thanks,dad!" They hugged each other and his dad left, to go to work. After a few minutes he called Markus, who was really excited about the idea of a sleepover. Oliver talked with his mother and after the usual ohhowsorryshewasabouthismother they became the affirmation. Oliver smiled, as he noticed Markus excitement in the background, who instantly ran through their house to gather the things he needed. It was clear, if his mom didn't stop him, she would stand there in an empty house soon. Half a hour later she gave him a lift and Markus stood before him. He looked so beautyful, in his tight fitting t-shirt and jeans-shorts. They settled down in the living-room. "I am sorry about your mom, Oliver! Do you want to do something, to think of other things, or do you want to talk about it ?" the cutie asked, trying to act adulteous. "There is something, I want to talk about! I wanted to talk with mom about it, but she died before I could ! Maybe I could talk about it with a friend!...You are my friend, aren't you?" "Sure, I am!" "And you would never think bad about me, would you ?" "Me? Never ! You are the best friend I ever had ! So, tell me! What is it?" "It isn't easy to say, you know ?" "You can tell me ! Go on, Oliver !" He tried to calm down a little, then he whispered in an unsure voice: "Do you know what the word gay means ?" "Sure that is a man loving other men !....Wait!....You mean..you are...gay?" Markus asked dumbfounded. " I think so!...So, if you want to leave now...." Oliver mumbled, blushing slightly. "Don't be silly ! Why should I ? You are my best friend and I am proud you told me this ! This means you really trust me !" Oliver jumped over to him and hugged him very tight. "Thank you, buddy ! I hoped you understand !" "Chh,chh!...Olly ...you...should...let me...breath!" Markus croaked. Oliver released him. "Oh, sorry !" "No problem ! So you really love men?" "Yes! I...even...think I'm ...in love already, with a boy !" Oliver stammered. Markus whispered shyly: "Is this when your heart beats faster and your ears feel really warm, when you see him?" "Yeah! You know this ?" he asked. "Yes,...Oliver!...That's how...how...it is...when I'm...around you !" the little boy muttered, blushing fiercely. Olivers face lit up. "You mean you love ME? That...that is fantastic ! You know, it's you I feel this way about !" he blustered out, before he embraced his friend. Their eyes met and they both saw the happy expression in them. They now knew, they felt the same way. Slowly the world around them seamt to drift away and they stood there in their warm embrace. It seemed so natural, nothing wrong, just pure innocent love. Suddenly Olivers lips touched Markus'. The boys eyes got wide in amazement, then closed half and his mouth opened slightly to receive the tongue of his friend. The two boys seemed to meld together, as they kissed each other passionately, while caressing each others body. They never did this before, never learned it. It seemed to be their own natural instinct taking over. After a while they stopped kissing to regain their breath. They again looked in each others eyes. They both knew what would happen next, but they weren't worried about it. They both had no experience in sex, other than jerking off, but they urged for each other. "Wanna go up to my room ?" Oliver muttered. His little lover just nodded absently and so he took him by the hand and led him to his room. He knew what they had to do, at least theoretically, for some of the chatters he talked with, were already adult and told him a lot about it. Some of them even sent him some movie-files, with boys having sex. he thought. They entered his room and he knew for sure: This was no dream ! He will have sex with the boy he loved for the first time in their lifes. Oliver went straight to his pc and booted it. "Take a chair and come over here, Markus ! I want to show you something !" Markus did so and looked at the monitor, as Oliver started to show him the movies. They showed boys around their age doing all things possible. It was quiet obvious that Markus got really excited, seeing the scenes, for the bulge in his shorts expanded quickly. "Do you like this ?" he asked Markus. "It's awesome! Where do you got it?" "On the net!" "Do you want to do all this?" "I don't know! I'm a little afraid, because it would be the first time for me! But if I could choose, I really want the first time, to be with you!" "Really???" "Yes, Markus ! I'm sure I love you and want to be with you tonight!" He looked into his eyes and could see the tears, that started to well up in them. "This must be a dream ! I never thought that you love me too, because I'm so young! I was so afraid to tell you about my love! I thought I would surely lose your friendship then!" his little friend muttered. "You will never lose me! I really, really love you!" Oliver said and again they kissed passionately. Then they stood up, walked to Olivers bed and let themselves fall onto it, without stopping their kiss. They rolled around on the sheets, melting together, finally united. Their kiss ended with Markus on top of Oliver. Their eyes met again and Oliver was sure he would drown in the clear blue oceans, that were above him. "You are so beautyful ! I love you so much that it hurts!" he muttered again. "I love you too, Olly!" his little love replied. "Do you want to do something ? You know, we don't have to!" he said. Markus giggled nervously and said. "I know we don't have to, but the movies let my dick get really hard and if we don't do something about it, it will surely explode!" "Oh, that's it ! I just wanted to ask you to take the flashlight out of your pocket, because it hurts my groin!" Oliver replied with a smirk. They both laughed. "So, then let me help you, get rid of your clothes!" "Yes, please!" Slowly he undressed his boy and then let Markus remove his clothes. Now they both lay side by side exploring each others naked bodies with their eyes. Markus smooth cocklet was nearly 12cm in length and unlike his own uncut. He had no sign of pubic hair, but his beautyful scrotum was hanging loosely on his thigh, holding two nuts, about the size of peach-stones. It was a sight that burnt itself into his memory. He had to touch it and so he reached for it and closed his hand around the slender shaft of his friend. He heard Markus' soft moans, as he began to jerk him off. Then he felt the hand of him on his own cock and Markus began to return the favor. Their breath became heavy and it was obvious that they won't last long this way. But Oliver wanted it to last and so he let go of Markus and removed his hand from his cock. He looked into his lovers face and smiled, for he saw the expression of pure bliss on it. He leaned down so that his face was now just before Markus groin. He took in the odour of boyish sweat, that lay above it. Then he started to lick the soft scrotum, instantly answered by loud moanings of his friend. He acted as if in a trance, as his tongue now wandered higher and higher on the cocklet. He pulled back his foreskin and began to whirl around the sensitive glans. Then without a second thought he let the whole dick glide into his mouth, sucking on it eagerly. He now started to bop his head up and down on it. He noticed that he managed his first blowjob quiet good, for Markus squirmed around under him and whimpered pleasured. Quickly he felt the tension in the boys body and then his dick throbbed in his mouth. With a loud scream he squirted his boyjuice into the mouth of Oliver. While his love tried to regain his breath, he savored the unfamiliar taste. Mostly sweet, with a light salty tint. This was good! He came up again and kissed Markus to share this new experience with him. "I want to try it too!" the little one whispered. "Ok,lovely! But be careful with your sweet little rabbit- teeth ! It's no carrot, you know!" Oliver said. Markus giggled sweetly. "I try not to bite you! But if it tastes as good as your mouth, I can promise nothing!" He got down between his legs and tried to take the whole 14cm in his mouth. He instantly started to gag. "Take it easy, Markus! You don't have to take it all, to make me feel good !" Oliver muttered breathless. Markus tried to copy his friend, going up and down on his shaft. After a while he really got into it and sucked him really lovely. Oliver moaned in pleasure. The excitement and the totally new feeling, let him quickly reach the point of no return. His cock twitched a few times and then pumped his hot semen into Markus throat. The little one couldn't take it all and some of it dribbled out of his mouth, landing on the soft pubic hair. Oliver lay there panting and then he felt Markus lips on his and they kissed again. "That was so lovely, Markus ! Thank you!" he whispered, then they lay there again hugging tightly. Suddenly Markus whispered: " Do you want to try the other thing, now?" "You mean...fucking ?" "Yeah!" "I don't know! Are you sure ? It might cause you pain and I don't want to hurt you!" "The boys in the movie seemed to enjoy it and I want to know how it feels!" "Ok, Markus! But we have to be careful ! I go search something, to make it slippery, so it's easier !" He ran out and after a few minutes came back with a jar of vaseline. The boys in the movies started, by pushing their lubricated fingers into the butts of their partners, so he thought he would do it this way. He laid down beside Markus. "Lift your legs, so that I could see your nice little butthole, darling!" he said. His friend did so and now he had a clear view of his pucker. It looked so small. Suddenly he felt terribly unsure about the whole thing. "Markus,...you still sure?...I mean...I think it might... really hurt you!" Oliver muttered. "Yes,Oliver ! I think it will hurt the first time! But I saw the boys in the movies and they really enjoyed it, so maybe it takes just a little practice. You know, just like in the training! Remember the first time I tried long-range-swimming? I felt every muscle in my body afterwards, but I didn't give up and now I'm very good for my age class! Not to say I really enjoyed you massaging me for my muscle-tensions!" Markus replied. "Sometimes I really wonder, what goes on in your weird little mind, buddy ! If you really want it, I try, but you have to promise me, if it hurts too bad you say so and we stop the whole thing! You don't have to do this, to prove anything!" "I promise! Just try it, Olly! I wanna know how it feels!" Oliver opened the jar and put a big glob on his fingers, applying it at his friends sphincter. Then he pushed slowly in it with his index. Markus groaned a little. "Should I stop?" Oliver asked worried. "No, go on! It was just a little weird at first!" He pushed deeper in spreeding the lube on the inside. Suddenly he heard a loud moan from his friend. "What's it? Did I hurt you?" he asked. "No, Olly! You touched a point in there, that felt really good!" He moved his finger a little, trying to find the point again. He now could feel a soft mound just a little way in and rubbed over it. Markus again moaned pleasured. "Does this feel good?" Oliver asked. "Awesome! It's as if you touch my cockhead!" "Cool!" He rubbed a little longer and after a short time he felt the sweet little butt of his friend hump against his finger. He looked amazed at the butthole seeing his finger slide in and out of it. But he also noticed, that it was by now not wide enough to let his cock slide in. He took his finger out and lubed a second finger. Then he pushed them both in carefully. He looked up again to search for any sign of discomfort, on his friends face, but Markus seemed already be so relaxed, that he only saw an expression of pure passion in his half-closed eyes. He wiggled his fingers around a bit, to stretch the tight passage. After a few minutes he felt that the hole had loosened enough to take his dick. He removed his fingers and positioned himself right over him. He saw his glans touching the slightly opened sphincter and started to apply pressure. He could see his cockhead stretch the tiny pucker as it slided deeper and deeper in. Then he felt that the muscle relaxed and without further resistance he slided in a good 5cm. Markus groaned. "How do you feel?" he asked. "Strange feeling! Just wait a little! I try to get used to it!" "Ok,buddy!" Oliver couldn't explain his feelings. This seemed to be different, from the scenes in the films, for he felt the loving feelings up to the last corner of his mind. This was no mere fucking, it was the thing, the adults meant when they say: They make love. Markus signaled him to go on and he slided deeper into him, until he finally felt his balls on the soft butt. "I'm fully in you! How do you feel?" he whispered. "It isn't as bad as I thought! I can feel you in me! Your dick seems to be so nice and warm!" "Shall I wait a little or do you want me to go on?" "Go on! I think I can take it!" Slowly he began to slide in and out of his friends love-chute. After a while Markus started to moan softly. Oliver leaned forward and kissed him again, while he accelerated his thrusts. He reached a steady rhythm and after a while Markus butt humped against him. For them it seamt as if time stood still. Markus felt suddenly that an orgasm rushed through his body. It was amazing ! His cock wasn't even touched, but he felt he would cum with an intensity, never encountered before. His cock began to pump and his boyjuice squirted up to his chin, while his sphincter contracted with every throb. The increased friction caused Oliver to get over the edge too and he shot his load deep into his friends intestines. They lay there, what seamt like hours still kissing passionately. Then Oliver felt his cock soften and he slided out of Markus. Then they lay side by side carressing each other tenderly. "Do you want to do me now?" Oliver whispered softly. "If you want it!" Markus said. "Sure! I want to know how it is to have you in me!" "Oh, it will just be a really small part of me!" the boy said giggling. "Not so small at all ! Your dick is really lovely!" Oliver reassured him. "Thank you,Oliver!" Markus said, blushing again. Then Oliver lifted his legs and Markus got down between them. He applied some jelly on his opening and lubed it. Then he pushed his finger in, instantly searching for the feel-good- point. The moaning of Oliver showed him his success. He rubbed over it until Oliver muttered: "Put it in me, or I come from this alone!" Markus positioned himself and Oliver had to remind him to lube his dick. He did so and then, with a little help from Ollie, his cockhead touched the entrance to paradise. He pushed it in slowly. Oliver groaned and Markus stopped again. After a while the pain subsided. "Go on ! Push in me with one shove!" Ollie said. As Markus did so, he felt as if his intestines were torn apart and he cried out in pain. Markus instantly wanted to pull out, but Ollie yelled: "No, let it in!" Markus stayed in the position and saw the concentration on Olivers face. The breath of his friend was heavy. Ollie relaxed a little, as the pain got less heavy. "Ok, buddy! Go on!" he said under his breath. His lover started to slide in and out of him very carefully and after some time the pain changed to a pleasurable feeling. He relaxed even more and moaned passionately. Markus accelerated his thrusts and soon found a steady rhythm. Now they got really into it. They both moaned, yelled and groaned in pleasure. Suddenly they felt an intense wave of pleasure, as they came both at the same time. Markus fell down beside him and they both panted heavyly. Oliver leaned over and kissed his little lover, then they looked in each others eyes. An aura of pure love and passion, seemed to surround the two boys. Sure, the sex was fun. But they had found more than a sex-partner today. This is the one thing, that will only happen once in their lives: The first real love. They embraced again and fell asleep in each others arms. Oliver woke up and looked at his alarm-clock. Then his gaze went to Markus who slept naked beside him. His eyes went over him and he again felt the love for this adorable little guy. He leaned down and kissed him gently on the cheek. "Wake up, little angel! It's nearly 1:00 am ! Time to get up for something to eat!" Markus eyes opened and looked up to him dreamily. "Ok, Ollie! But I'm not sure I can sit, the next few days!" he muttered. "So, you are sore too?" Oliver asked him. "Yeah, a little!" "Wait! I think we have some salve in the bathroom!" And with that he jumped up and ran to the bath to get it. He then lay down beside Markus and applied some of it on his hole. Then Markus did the same for him. After that special care, they dressed, shut down the pc and went down to the living-room. They spent the rest of the day together, looking at dvd's, while hugging tightly. Sometimes they kissed each other, but there was no need for more. They knew, they had all the time in the world. As always, when you have fun, the time seems to fly by and suddenly they heard the key in the lock. They instantly sat a little farther apart, to arose no suspicion in his dad and greeted him happily. "Hey, boys! Did you had fun?" his dad asked, a little tired. The two boys blushed a little then Oliver answered: "Yeah, dad! Lots of it!" "What did you do all day?" "Oh, mostly looking movies!" he answered truthfully. Before he went up to his room he turned around and said: "Ok, you two! I'm a little tired and will go to bed. Don't stay up too much! Tomorrow we have to catch a flight!" BAM! Markus looked at Oliver with wide eyes! "Eeehm...I told you, didn't I? I go to Texas for two weeks, to visit the family of my mum!" Oliver muttered. "Yeah, but I didn't remember it's tomorrow already!" Markus said with tears in his eyes. "Oh, come on! Don't cry! It's just two weeks!" "It's just....that this all started right now! I just don't know... I mean...!" the boy muttered sobbing. "What? Afraid that I run away, with a cute Texan guy?" Oliver asked smirking. "Don't you dare!" "Never mind! You can be sure, when I'm over there, my heart will be here!" Olly said serious and then gave him a passionate kiss. They embraced each other and went to their bedroom to sleep. Martin Hellmann had a difficult time to fall asleep tonight. The behavior of the boys was a little strange, when he came home. He wanted to talk with Oliver, if everything is alright and went down. He heard most of their conversation and quickly decided to sneak back up to his bedroom. Why didn't he notice it before? Maybe it's only a phase, he's going through! No, the way they kissed each other was just like him and...Margy. Could it really be? Could Oliver be gay? He always thought of himself, as open-minded, but damned, this was his son! What the heck, he loves him gay or straight! But why didn't he tell him? Didn't he trust him? His body gave in and he fell into sleep over this heavy thoughts. The next morning he woke up from the noise of the two happy boys. He never imagined, what noises could be made, from the preparition of a breakfast. He really had to check afterwards, if anything is broken. Then his thoughts went back to yesterday. He has to talk to Oliver about it. Martin and Oliver were on their way to Texas. Both were heavy in thoughts. Oliver because he left his new found love and Martin because he noticed the sexual orientation of his only son. They sat next to each other in the plane and the tension was feelable. "Dad?" "Yes, Oliver?" "I don't know how to begin... You know...I mean...There's something I want to talk with you about!" A mixture of feelings came up in Martin. On one side, was his fear that it is the truth, what he found out, on the other side was the hope that he didn't have to ask him about it, himself. "Go on Oliver! I'm all ear!" "Eeehm, dad! It's not easy for me!" "Trust me! You can tell me everything!" "Yeah, I know, but this is different! No broken window from soccer-playing! M...maybe you will hate me afterwards!" "Oh, god ! You killed somebody!" Martin said with wide eyes. Then he smiled warmly at his son. "Oliver, there's nothing, you could say or do, that could possibly make me hate you!" "What if I tell you, that I'm gay?" it broke out of the boy. "So what? Why should I mind it?" "Y..you...don't mind?" "No, Oliver ! I do mind, but not in a bad way! I want you to be happy! If you could be happy with Markus, I will give you my warmest gratulations!" Oliver blushed and mumbled: "You know of me and Markus?" "Yeah,... I wanted to talk to you yesterday and heard your conversation! Don't misunderstand! I wasn't peeking, it just happened!" Their eyes met and Oliver could see the fear and confusion in his dads eyes. "Don't worry, dad! I don't thought you were peeking! I'm just glad, I found the courage to tell you, that I love Markus!" "Son, if you are really sure of it, I'm happy for you!" They both embraced and their upstored emotions overwhelmed them. They both cried in each others arms. Afterwards they both felt relieved. "Since when do know that you are gay?" his dad asked. "I noticed it, after I started dating with Michelle!" "That's nearly a year! Why didn't you tell me earlier?" "Oh, dad! That's not that easy! It's nothing like a new haircut, you know?" "Now that you mention it, son! And when did you fell in love, I mean you and Markus?" "Oh, that happened yesterday! I mean that we told each other! I told him that I'm gay and he confessed to me that he loves me! I was so relieved, because I'm in love with him, nearly from the first day we met." "Did you...did you do something together?" "Eeehm, dad! That's nothing to talk about!" "Don't worry, Oliver! I just hope, when you do something, you do it safe!" "Owww dad! Yeah we did have sex together, but it was the first time for both of us! I'm not whoring around, you know?" "Settle down, son! That's new for me too!" "Sorry dad! Eeehm, you know, I saw your morning boner yesterday, before you went to the shower!" he said and had to smirk, as he saw his ole daddy blushing. "Ow! I really tried to hide it!" he said. "Don't do that, daddy! It's really nice!" Oliver said now beaming brightly. "Come on, Oliver! You wouldn't...I mean you know...I would never do anything with you!" his dad stuttered, now with a crimson face. "Oh, dad! I just mock you! I don't want to do anything with you! After all, I have my Markus! I just wanted to tell you, that I'm really proud of the tool that made me! You know, mum would be glad, when you would find something new soon!" "Oliver! I'm sure she would, but the wounds are too fresh right now!" Oliver now embraced him warmly. "Dad ! I didn't mean, you should date tomorrow! I just don't want, that you start burrowing yourself at home!" "But don't you dare, trying to procure me!" his dad said, now smirking too. They both laughed. "You know dad, I'm really glad, you talk to me like I'm already adult!" "Oliver, I think you are more adult, than most boys your age! I'm really proud of you!" "Thanks dad! That means much to me!" Oliver said and gave him a kiss on the cheek. Soon they had reached their destination. Their lives had changed drastically over the last weeks, but somehow they felt nearer than ever before. After a while they reached the big house of the Coopers, mums family and were greeted by his grandma Kate. "Martin! Good to see you again! And... gosh...! Is this the cute little tyke, that ran around half-naked in our house? Oliver! When you grow more you will break through the ceiling in no time! What do I say? You must be tired from the long flight! Come on in! Dinner's ready in no time!" she blabbered. "Where's Bill? Doesn't he want to greet us?" "Aaargh, you know, he's such a pig-headed fellow! He grumbles again in his study, about the man, that stole his little girl, back then!" "Where is it? I think I'm good in breaking ice!" Oliver said to her. "I could imagine that! Just try! It's through that door, the second door to the right!" He went to the door and tried to compose himself. Then he knocked. "Come in!" someone yelled from within. He opened the door and entered the room. Bill sat behind an old desk, occupying most of the room. He mentioned him to sit down at a chair before it. "Hi, grandpa!" "So, you are Oliver! You sure have grown a lot, since last time!" "Yeah, I guess! It's nearly 11 years, we didn't see each other!" Bill was a typical working guy, with broad shoulders. He owns a small construction-company and worked for it most of his life. He was quite good looking and only the grey streaks in his black hair and the wrinkles in his face showed his age. His hard expression went a little softer, as his grey eyes, inspected Oliver. "You know, you look like your mom!" he suddenly mumbled. "I hope so! Couldn't imagine to look like daddy!" the boy said smirking. "Yeah, scary thought!" Bill said, now smirking too. Oliver got serious again. "You know, dad's a fine guy! And he really loved mom, from the first day, to the last! Please don't hate him for that!" "I don't hate him! It's just...I can't...aargh, I just don't know, Oliver!" "Maybe it would be a good first step to welcome him in your house!" Oliver said. "You are a really sly guy, you know? You don't search for a job as business-advisor, by chance?" "Oh, grandpa! I'm just 14!" Now they both laughed. Then they stood up and walked to the others. "Hi, Bill!" dad said cautious. "Hello Martin! Don't worry! This guy cured me of my anger! He's really good at that, you know? Welcome at my house, son!" Bill said and embraced him warmly. "I'm sorry, I couldn't get to the funeral! Did she suffer much?" he then asked. "She tried to fight, but the cancer was too strong! She died in her sleep! Her face looked so peacefull as I saw her the last time! I think she knew, me and Oliver would get through this together!" his dad said, now crying freely. Bill's eyes filled with tears too. "I'm sure you will! It's just...she was my little girl!" The two men embraced each other and cried. After that, they got along really well. One evening Oliver and his grandma looked through some old photos in an album. He stumbled over a picture with two laughing girls, maybe 12 or 13 years old. The two faces looked strangely familiar to him. "Grandma? Who are these two?" "Oh, sweety! The left is your mom! And the right is Bill's niece Carol. She left her family, a year after your mom and got married in Germany! I think the name is....!" Suddenly it dawned on him: "Stadler!...His name is Stadler! She was divorced, not long ago and lives with his son in our neighborhood!" "So, you know each other? What a convenience!" "Yes, her son Markus is... a friend of mine, but I never knew he's my cousin!" "That's fate's way! You never know how it strikes! You know Carol and your mom were unseparable as kids. They grew up together and were nearly as close as siblings!" he thought excited. A whole new range of possibilities unfolded in his mind and he instantly thought about a plan to bring Carol and his dad together. The two weeks flew by and as they left, they both knew they were accepted as members of the family. They came back home and started to unpack their clothings. Oliver knew for sure that he and his dad would manage her life. Mum will be proud of them! I hope the story will entertain somebody. It took me some time to finish it! I especially thank everyone who offered me help after my first postings! You know for sure who's meant!(hugs) Constructive criticism is always welcomed. As I mentioned in my earlier stories, I'm from Germany and so you could surely imagine, how difficult it is to translate my thoughts! So don't just tell me there are stylistic errors in it! I'm sure there are much!(grin) Tell me what you think of the story! I appreciate any idea, for the forthcoming chapters! My e-mail account is at cyclope@nexgo.de. Greetings folks! aR Jey, from Berlin, Germany
