If this offends you in any way, please DO NOT READ IT. This is all a work of fiction. ---------------------------------------------------------------------------- When we woke up the next day it was a bit hard to not talk about what happenned, well at least with Max. i kept just beating around the bush with him about the subject. While Robbie was around, i did not dare talk about anything like that. I couldn't look at him the same though. he was such a cute boy, and he basically fucked himself, with my body. It was weid, but it was amazing. Eventually we did get going and we headed to the parks. It was a blast. I lost track of how many things we did, everything with them was fun. From the ride from park to park,the wait in line for rides, to the the food we ate, to the little breaks in between rides, to taking potty breaks. Everything they did was funny. It was so weird how neither of them did anything weird. I honestly thought they would flirt with each other or something like that, but no. They were just two boys having fun, just great friends. We were sitting at a bench eating some nachos when out of nowhere Robbie smacked my leg near my dick while we were joking about something. I figured this was my cue to maybe bring the subject up. "Dude, that was close to my dick..." i said. "O sorry...don't want to hurt your dick" he giggled. "Yeah...for some reason i feel real sore down there" i said. "Why?" asked Robbie as he looked at Max a little worried. As much as they had avoided the subject, they weren't good at lying. "O probably because of all the rides aaron" said Max as he looked at me mad. "O. you may be right, i guess" i gave up. I did catch a little sign of relief come from Robbie. The day continued and we did check in with Robbie's parents a few times a day, and we joined them for dinner. It was a grand day. As we got close to the end, Max knew it was going to be hard to say bye. He kept talking about it and he kept telling Robbie he had to keep in touch and come visit from time to time. I on the other hand, couldn't forget the moment last night. The thing was, i hadn't been able to see any of it, it all happened with my eyes closed. So, yes, Robbie had his amazing butt on me, but i don't know what it looked like or anything. It was quite the weird feeling. I couldn't help but to notice the cute looks he would throw my way though. that devilish look that said "i did something bad, and i liked it". Eventually we were back at the hotel lobby, and we all knew it was time to say good bye. I hugged Robbie and gave him a quick little smack in the butt, I don't know why I did, but he smiled when I did. "Well, I'll miss you guys. I'll keep in touch, I promise" he smiled. "Dude give me a hug" said Max as he walked towards Robbie. "Promise me you guys will keep in touch" said Robbie. "I promise" I said. "I promise too" said Max. The tears were building up and I didn't like them, so I tapped his shoulder again and then stepped back. They said their last good bye, for now they made sure to add, and then Max and I headed back up to our room. We packed everything as much as we could before we were too tired to keep going. And just like that, it was over. The most amazing vacation we ever randomly took. It was all gone, til the next one of course. Just like we got here so quickly, we were on our way back. It felt as if it was literally in a blink of an eye. 5 luggage bags later, we were back at our home airport. We waited a few minutes for our car to get there but before we knew it we were driving back home. Max was quiet for the most part, but not sad. He seemed to be complacent. "Aaron, I had a blast. I'm sad we don't get to see Robbie that much, but still. I'm glad we met him" Max told me. "I feel the same way you do bro. Things just happen you know. Its out of our reach. Maybe you will be very good pen pals with him" I told him. "NO...after what we did in the room, I wanna visit him more. Please. Can we take a trip to visit him sometime" "Sure why not kiddo. After all, he was nice to...you know..." "Yeah, he was nice to fuck wasn't he?" he smirked at me. "You little devil" I laughed. The rest of the way home he fell asleep. The airport was a few hours away and eventually I fell asleep too. Good thing we had a driver. Plus he helped with the bags. We woke up right before we pulled up to my house. I paid the guy, tipped him, then unloaded the bags into the garage. "So what now?" asked Max. "What now?" we're home now Max. What do you mean what now. We relax" "I know...are you tired though?" "Yeah I am a bit tired. Aren't you?" "No, we just slept in the car on the way here" "Well, lets get the bags split up. Lets put all the things that we are giving to our family in 2 of the bags, then my stuff stays here, and the things you want to take home in one bag, and unload the things you're going to keep here" I said. "Boy that sounds like a lot of work" he complained. "O man. Quit complaining. It wont be that bad" I told him. But it was. 3 Hours later we were finally ready. I looked at the time, it was about 6pm. My parents texted, they wanted to know if we were coming over for dinner because they were cooking out. "Come on max. we have to get going. Time to go eat at my parents house" I said. "O man. Already?? Cant I stay with you another day?" he asked. "Don't you want to see your parents?" I asked. "Yeah, but I don't want to stay with them" he giggled. "Well I don't work until Monday. It's Saturday right now" I told him. "Sounds like I'll be around at least til Monday morning" he laughed. "Good you can help me do all the laundry" I said as I spanked him gently. We headed over to the house with the 2 bags of gifts we brought. When we got there of course we were greeted by lots of hugs and kisses from our moms and just hugs from our dads. Jon looked at us with a weird, annoyed face. I don't know what he was thinking in that evil little head of his but I sure felt the bad vibes coming from him. "So guys how was it?" asked my mom. "Well, it was amazing. Just amazing. I never had so much fun in my life!" said Max happily. "I agree with him. It was out of this world. Let me tell you guys, next time we go, we have to stay at the Disney resort. Its so easy to get to places and its so incredibly nice" I said. "I will keep that in mind." Said my dad. "Well lets eat. Then we can talk stories about the vacation" said my mom. The dinner was great. Nothing like a cook out to welcome us home from that trip. I don't understand what it as about home food, but it just makes you feel so warm inside. Everyone in the family laughed and talked, including Kevin, but Jon was quiet. He was thoughtful as usual. I didn't quite understand what was up with him, and frankly I didn't care. Well I cared enough to think about it, but not enough to question him about it. When dinner was over Max and I handed out the gifts we bought and explained where we got them and blah blah blah. The parents loved their shirts and other memorabilia, Kevin loved all his stuff too, and Jon, well he was thankful but not extremely excited about it. Of course my mom took pictures of all this because she said we were all brown and crispy from the vacation in the sun. Once that was all set and done Kevin and Max headed down to the game room to play some games. I headed up to my room to relax for a bit. For some reason the room at my moms house always makes me feel better no matter what my problems are. I sat on my couch for a bit just spacing out. I couldn't help to trace back all of the memories I had in the room. I must have sat there for 10 minutes at least before one of my memories walked into the room. "So...thanks for the stuff" said Jon. "you're welcome" I answered without even turning to look at him. "So I guess you only brought me shit cuz you didn't want my parents to ask anything?" he asked. "No...Max wanted to bring you stuff. He cares about his brother, at least enough to bring him gifts" "What about you?" he asked. "Can I ask where this is going?" I asked. "Well..no where really." "I'm getting really tired of the in and out of my life you keep trying to do" I said. "No dude. I just wanted to say sorry you know." "Ok. Well thanks for saying sorry?" I said confused. "Can I sit?" he asked as he moved my legs off the couch so he could sit. "Is he really that much better than me?" he asked. "What? Who?" "Don't play stupid. Max" "Well, he's a good brother. A good friend. A good listener." "Yeah...what else?" he asked. "A good everything. He has this little thing called a heart" He sat there stumped. I did look at him though. I hadn't been close to him like this in a while so this was my chance to see what changes he has been through. His face was still nice and clean. A few traces of small pimple areas, but still clean. He did have that little mustache though. He seemed to shave not too often but it was still light enough to not be weird. He did show traces of stress though. Not bad, but he didn't glow like he used to and of course he didn't smile. "What are you saying. I don't have a heart?" he asked. "I don't know." I said. "I have a heart. Trust me" "Well that's nice. But the whole trusting thing, not so much what I like to do with someone like you" "Aaron, I'm tired of this. I....i want....to tell you something" "Okay...speak" "I..." he stopped for a second. "I'm dating someone" he said. It took me by surprise, it hurt me for a second. I got mad. I got jealous. Who was he dating? Why tell me? Was it a guy or a girl? I had all these questions. But then, I realized, it was no longer my issue. "That's awesome. It'll do you good" I said. "Yeah if you say so." He said. He looked down. "Its not a guy" he said right away. "I didn't think it was. But thanks for clearing that up" I said. Although I did feel relief. No idea why though. "she's older than me though." He said. "Well older women tend to like younger guys" "I'm not going to have sex with her. Its just, weird. She does want to. I keep saying no." "Well don't you have rubber?" I asked. "Yeah I do, but I don't want to." "Well then tell her that? I don't know. Im not exactly used to you coming to me with your problems. So its weird for me" "It's not a problem. I just want to say that, I'm okay with you. I'm not mad." "Well thanks...I'm happy you're not mad at me?" I said still confused. "can we be friends?" he asked. "Why even bother" I said as I got up. He stood up right away and pulled me to him. He gave me a hug. A meaningful hug, so meaningful that I couldn't let go. I held onto him for a bit. "What are you doing?" I asked. "I gave you a hug. Ok. That's it. A hug" he said as he stepped back. "Thanks for the hug" I smiled at him. "Well...I can't say I am your friend. I can't say its all fixed." I said. "Just it go Aaron. Man. Its been months, years" "I did let it go. That's why I can't be friends that easily" "Well, I got to go okay. I just wanted to say that. Thanks for the gifts." He said. He slowly walked out of the room. I suddenly got a quick jab of pain in my chest. Not actual physical pain, but more like mentally induced pain. He was dating someone. He made it sound serious. Was that going to change him. Was he going to start acting normal? No, because if he was going to change he would have changed towards Max, and he hasn't. No it wasn't that. Why bother letting me know that. Its like he wants me to know. Why test me? I couldn't deal with the questions so I decided to get some investigation working. That night Max wasn't allowed to stay at my house again. His mom told him he had to actually spend time with his family. I wasn't really bummed out or anything because well, its true, he has to. I talked to a tech buddy I know and had him fix me up some sort of bugs so I could get some inside ears inside jon's random change of heart. He gave me a watch, a sticker to put inside his phone so I could hear his conversations, and an actual small mic to hide in his room. He figured if not all of these worked, one of them had to catch him doing or saying something. The plan now consisted of getting into his room. The next day I was on a mission. I went over to Max's house to talk to him and to drop of something he left behind. I made up something. I just needed to get into Jon's room and hopefully get to hang with him a bit to install the bugs. When I got there max was a bit surprised because of course he hadn't left anything behind. He greeted me and then we went up to his room. "I didn't leave anything I needed" I told him. "I know, but I wanted to come see you" I told him. "Why?" he asked. "I have to give you this" "I gave him a picture I took of us at Disney" "O man this is cool" he said. He looked at it. Then he taped it to the headrest of his bed. "Thanks dude." He said as he hugged me. "No thank you for being amazing" I told him. Just then my plan worked itself into motion. Jon opened the door and was saying something. When he saw me there he stopped, looked right at me and gave me a questioning look. "What are you two doing?" he asked. "What does it look like we're doing?" asked Max. "Well..you're on the bed...real close to each other" said Jon. "Then leave. We're in the middle of something" giggled Max. "Um...fags. Hey aaron, since you're here can you help me with my laptop?" he asked. I couldn't believe how easy he was making this for me. I could easily get into his room. "Sure..." I said. "Careful, that room is dangerous" smiled Max. "I'll be back in a few" I told him. I followed Jon to his room. To my surprise it was very neat. Smelled very clean. But my guess was that it was that way so he could keep the other unwanted smells from being detected. I sat on his couch and I purposely left my `watch' there. I figured he'd probably try to keep it. He showed me the laptop and then told me what was happening. I knew how to fix it. Just was going to get rid of some mal ware and other small bugs. He didn't clean out the laptops drive so a lot of junk was left behind which slowed him down. Either way, it was taking me a bit. I waited a while and worked slow to give him time to randomly leave the room so I could get my hands on his phone which was on top of his desk. Soon enough he did go pee and I quickly did it all. The mic I planted was under his bad in the corner out of sight so I could hear. I figured that was a spot where he would do calls if he had to. Then I quickly finished tuning his laptop. "Thanks a lot man. It was really slow. Now it seems like its back to normal. Well normal ish" "Yeah for the most part. Do you need anything else" I asked. "No that's it. Thanks though" he said. I was a little surprised to hear him talk like that since he's a thug. But I figured he was probably just trying to change his vocab. I stood up and headed for the door. I looked back at him and he smiled at me. Now that everything was set to go, I was ready to go home and cash in on my prizes. I went back to max's room and told him I had to go home to work out. He never questioned me to he said good bye and then I was on my merry way. Once at home I logged onto my laptop where I got al the signals from Jon. I set it to record on the times I knew he was around to talk on the phone. I went about my day taking care of my errands while occasionally taking a look at his activity. He wasn't doing much during the day. But I did notice that I heard most of his movements which meant that he had the watch on him. That was perfect for me. My buddy did call me and said that the watch he had left did in fact have a camera and that it would send video feed to this special website. I was amazed. The sneaky things money can buy now a days. Once I was completely done with my errands I sat in front of my laptop. I logged into the site and sure enough I had the feed from jon. The problem was that the watch was charged by sunlight, so at nights, it would have very limited battery. O well. Any info is good info. When the video feed was showing I found him sitting on his computer. The camera was positioned so that I could see him, and from time to time I could see what he was looking at, depending on where his hand was. Nothing interesting happened for a while. I did see him look at some pictures of him and me a few times. I was confused as to why he would look a pictures of us. Later on in the night I heard movement. He was outside. I looked at the time, it was a little past 10 pm. Why was he out that late. I got into full spy mode and started listening in. He met up with his buddy. The one I had beat up recently. "Shane I don't get it. Why do you need me to get close to him" I heard him say. "Jon, little man. It's a pay back thing" "But why. He clearly beat you that one time" "So what. He's bigger than me" "No. he's stronger than you" "Okay who's side you on?" asked Shane. "yours I guess" "Ok. Well listen just get close to him." "Okay but he's going to get suspicious. Trust me, I know him. You don't" said Jon. "Yeah at first. He probably already is. So that's why you have to slowly get closer to him. Why don't you just pay him a visit tomorrow night just randomly" "That's weird. I haven't spent time with him for a long time" "Well, its either that...or tell the crew you blew me" "Dude you made me" "Yeah but only for weed. You could have got that somewhere else" "Yeah but it was good weed you gave me" "Don't matter. What matters is that you blew me" "Come on shane you said it was a secret" "yeah, but I want this done now. Or you're going to have to give me more bj's" "Dude come on. Plus how am I going to get a gf. You made me tell him I had one and what if he starts asking about her" "So then get one. Its not so hard." "Well why?" "Because he's going to think that she will change you or something. You know how aaron thinks a lot" "I just don't get this. Why you messing with him through me" "Because, this is where it hurts the most" "Its not cool man. Not cool at all" said Jon. "So, want a blunt?" asked Shane. "Sure what else can we do at this time. But what are you doing to aaron once I get his trust" "Nothing too bad. Just hurt him by you betraying him for me" "O man. I'm screwed. He already hates me. O well" "Yeah well shit happens man. You got my friendship, what else do you need" "I need some good weed" said Jon. At this point I was furious. I was being led into a trap. Why did I even think Jon was actually changing or trying to be my friend. I was so dumb. I knew I couldn't just straight out blow up on him and tell him I was onto him. I was going to milk this. I was going to play their game, and beat them at it. I closed the program down I had heard enough of this. The next morning i went to work. It was time to get back to my normal life. It was going to take some time to get back into the groove but I liked working so its okay I guess. I went through my day, slowly, painfully, but I stay busy enough to not let it bother me so much. I kept thinking about what I was going to do do with my jon situation. I was still feeling really angry about the fact that I almost fell for something that would have really hurt me. Now I was, still hurt, but mostly angry. I kept a conversation with Max and of course he wanted to come hang out with me after work since it was getting close to the end of his summer vacation. At around 9pm I was done with all my work and I headed over to Max's to pick him up. I figured it would do me some good to hang out with him and forget about the other jerk. When I got there he was patiently waiting for me outside. He smiled as soon as I pulled up to the drive way. He jumped on the truck as soon as I came to a full stop and he hugged me. "how was work?" he asked. "It was work man. That's all there is to it" I smiled. "Hey, you have to work. Its good for you. Money is good for you" "Yeah specially after all the money I spent right" I laughed . "Yeah, on me" he said a little worried. "Hey, don't say things like that" I said. Out of the corner of my eye I saw Jon come out the door. He headed to the truck. I wondered what he had up his sleeve. He walked fast and signaled me to put the window down. "yes?" I asked. "What are you guys doing?" he asked. Max looked at me confused, I returned the look. I had no idea. "Umm...why?" I asked confused. "Just wondering. Hey can I come over later on tonight?" he asked me. "uh....what for?" asked Max. "To just hang out I don't know?" answered Jon. But he kept looking back somewhere. I wonder if he was being watched or something. "Dude, no offense, but I don't think you want to hang out with us. Whatever you're thinking or planning, just drop it. Not going to work this time" I said. He looked a little hurt. This confused me though. If he was doing this to help his so called friend, why look hurt when I turn his invite down. "I guess...I was just wondering anyway" he said. "Dude, only for a little while. And don't tell mom you're spending the night because you're not spending the night" spoke Max. I looked at him weird. Max inviting Jon over? Never saw that one coming. "Really? Is that cool with you Aaron?" asked Jon. "I guess...Max is the boss" I said. "Can I ride with you guys?" he asked. "How will you get back home later?" asked Max. "I'll have mom pick me up" he said. "Okay, I guess" I agreed. "Sweet" said Jon as he opened the back door and hopped in. I was still confused though. Why did Max invite him, and why did I even let this happen. I knew his mom wouldn't want to get up out of bed later on tonight to pick him up. I also knew he probably already told her he was staying over at my house. Now I was going to have to deal with him and hope that I don't start to believe any of his lies. Actually I'm not going to hope, I'm going to make sure I don't. When we got to my house Jon stood back and let Max guide. Max headed inside and he went up to his room right away. He said he was going to go change or something. I sat down on the couch and turned on the tv. "So...what are you guys going to do?" asked Jon. I took a good look at him. I usually don't bother really looking at him, but I did this time. He was wearing some jeans, a plain black tee shirt, his hair was real short, had the ghetto designs, a silver chain hung a little from his neck, and his phone was always in his hand. "We usually don't have a plan. We watch tv, have some snacks. Watch movies. Simple stuff" "Sounds kind of lame" said Jon. "Well we don't have drugs sorry" said Max as he joined me on the couch. I gently elbowed him on the side. "What...I'm just saying. So spill the beans. Where's the party? Why you wanna come here. What time are your friends picking you up?" asked Max. "What why do you say that?" asked Jon. "Dude, I know you're not here to chill with us. You just wanted to sneak out. You knew we don't really care about you. So you trying to use us to get out of the house so your friends can pick you up" said Max. I was kind of surprised he put that all together by himself. "Damn. That was impressive" I said. Jon did looked a bit worried for a second. He took a bit to collect himself. Then looked at me. But he didn't look like he meant harm. I was getting mixed signals. "I miss aaron." Said Jon. He said it so simple, so matter of fact. Kind of like...it was true. But no. It couldn't be true. "Right..." said Max. "Max, you don't even know anything. Trust me" said Jon. "Yes...I do. Aaron is an awesome friend. But, you don't miss anyone but yourself and your drugs" said Max. "I'm not an addict max. what the fuck. I'm not that bad" said Jon. "Okay. Spill the beans Jon. If you really came here just to sneak out, that's fine. Just call your friends and have then pick you up. We wont rat you out this one time." I said. "No dude. I didn't come here to sneak out damn" he complained. "Then why?" asked Max. "I came here to have fun like last time we hung out remember" said Jon. "At six flags and at the hotel?" asked Max. "yes. It was the best time I had. I miss that stuff" said Jon. I felt he was sincere. But it couldn't be. He was here to get on my good side, yet I sensed he was being honest. Was he having mixed feelings? O man. I was so confused now. "Look, i can leave if you want me to" said Jon. "No, just relax. I'm sorry. We just, get a little carried away" I said. "Yeah, sorry man. Pizza?" asked max. I loved how he could just flip the switch and make me smile with little comments like that. "Yeah that would be good" said Jon. The three of us walked to the kitchen. I put a pizza in the oven while we chatted about random stuff. He looked around and was amazed at the stuff I had changed. Max gave him a tour of his room, and mine as well. Mean while, I sat there in my kitchen stumped. What was my plan now? Do I keep thinking Jon is bad, or do I just give in to his new way of acting and see what happens? But what about Shane? Jon wouldn't risk his rep for me, never. When they came back down Jon looked different. I don't know, he had a weird look to him. Like he was worried about something. But I , I had decided something. I wasn't going to keep the bug on him. I was going to stop listening in, I had to. I had to just give him the benefit of the doubt. Maybe he was changing, and or maybe this was a trap and I was in for it. But then he made it easier. "Here, you left your watch in my room a few days ago. It's really nice." He said as he handed me one of the bugs I had planted. "Thanks dude" I said as I took it out of his hands and put it in a drawer in the kitchen. "I don't want to make you guys think I'm like your best friend or something. Im still ghetto but I just wanted to you know, chill sometimes. You guys are both my brothers." He said. "I don't get it jon. Why now?" asked Max. "Why can't you just deal with me wanting to sometimes be with you guys" asked jon. "Because it honestly doesn't make sense Jon. You're brother thinks you hate him" I said. I hugged max. "No, I don't hate him. I hate you guys together. Makes me feel like I failed as a brother, to both of you." Said Jon. He looked down. I saw pain. "You did. I'm sorry. But you did" said Max. "Well, that's why I sometimes want to chill with you guys you know. Cuz you're cool. Both of you" he said. "Okay fine. But its not going to be that easy to get my trust." Said max. "I don't want your trust. I just said I want to hang out sometimes" said Jon. "Okay, that works then" said max but I noticed he was a tad confused. I was to. So he doesn't want our trust, just wants to hang with us from time to time. Yeah, because that made sense. "Is the pizza going to take a long time?" asked Max. "Yeah at least 20 minutes. Lets go play some games" I told them. For the next 20 minutes we played video games in the living room. It was really fun. For the first time in a while we were all laughing and making fun of each other. Challenges were made, bets were lost, and arguments ended up being taken care of in the video game and not in real life. I loved video games, just because I feel like they were the root of everything. When the pizza was ready we went to get it set up. Max and Jon grabbed drinks and plates and then we sat down to eat. We also grabbed chips and cookies and we had big feast. You know like the ones we usually had back in the day. "Amazing food. As usual" said Max with a smile. "How do you not get fat aaron?" asked Jon. "Well he works out a lot. Sometimes he goes to bed at 1 am because he stays up working out" said Max. "Man that's some hard work there man" said Jon. "Yeah...sometimes I worry about him but o well he wont listen to me so what can I do" "Max, you're happy living here aren't you?" asked Jon. "Yeah duh. I'd move here if mom would let me" he said. "You guys sleep in separate rooms?" asked Jon. "Duh...why would we sleep together if we have our own rooms" I said. "I thought couples slept together" said Jon with a grin on his face. "Well not us. We're not always together" giggled Max. "Wait what?" asked Jon. "NO nothing. Nothing" Max brushed the subject away. But Jon was onto something, well at least he thought he was. He gave us a weird look and then took turns looking at me then at Max. I guess he was trying to figure out what was going on. But I wasn't giving him any clues, and neither was max. we were good at hiding our secrets, unlike Jon who sometimes gave it away on the spot. "So, who's room do I sleep in?" asked Jon. "I thought you weren't staying?" asked Max. "Come on, you thought I'd get picked up by mom this late. Its almost 11:30" said Jon. "I guess you're right. I was stupid" said Max. "Well...where?" asked Jon again. "Aaron's room. Cuz I'm going to be playing all night" said Max. "What...okay. Ditch us for games" I said. "Hey you knew I was going to. You bought me the game." Said Max in defense. "Yeah I guess you got a point there. O well" I said. "We can play our own video games dude. Let the little nerd play by himself." Added Jon. "IF you say so" said Max with a smile. We finished the pizza and by the time we were done cleaning it was almost midnight. I was happy that they both offered to help and well Jon did most of the dish washing. I was shocked. "So what do we do now? Do we watch a movie?" asked Jon. "If you want. I'm down" said Max. "Let me guess a scary one?" I asked. "Yes!" said max. "But you hate those..." said Jon. "Oh no man. He's changed. He loves them now" I told him. "Wow...things do change with time" said Jon. "Okay well...you guys go choose It while I finish up here" I said. It didn't take me long to finish putting things away and turning off the lights. Max knew how to work everything now so by the time I got to the living room he had the sound setup and everything. "Dude, Max you're spoiled. No wonder you come here so much" said Jon as I got near them. "Thanks. Anyway aaron sit in the middle" said Max. "okay boss" I said. I dimmed the lights with the control and then I sat back and waited for the previous to end. Sitting in the middle of those two was quite different. I was glad that they weren't fighting though. I enjoy the rare nights when I could have these two and not have them at each others' throats. When the movie started, it started off with a bang. Max was immediately right next to me with his arm holding onto mine. I turned to look at him and he just smiled. "Look at you guys all scared" said Jon. "Shut up you know you're going to get scared" I told him. "O no I'm not" he said. "Shut up just watch it" said Max angry. He really gets into his movies. He doesn't talk much through them. The movie was so so. Nothing great, but it did make all of us jump a tad. Half way thru the movie Max's hand somehow managed to surprise me and hold my hand. He did it very discretely so Jon had no clue. Minutes later I felt Jon's arm touch mine. I felt a tingle, then I felt a shock go right through me. It was weird that he still had the ability to get me going like tat. I knew he had done it on purpose, but he didn't reach for my hand he just wanted to put his arm near mine I guess. Throughout the rest of the movie Jon didn't try anything weird he just kept his arm near mine. A hour passed by, then 2 and then finally the film ended. I wasn't scared and Max said he wasn't either. He was more eager to go play his game than he was scared. "Well I'm going to my room to play my game guys. Is that okay?" asked Max. "Yeah I guess" said Jon. "Okay kid. Don't put volume to loud like last time when the whole house shook" I said. "Ha. Yeah that was a tad too loud" smiled Max. he ran off up to his room. "So...umm...what now?" asked Jon. "I don't know man. Usually I go to sleep when he does that..." I said. "IS it okay if I go to ur room with you?" he asked. "Yeah I guess" I told him. We turned off everything downstairs and then headed up to my room. He followed me into the room and sat on my bed. I got up and closed the door but not the whole way just left it a little open so we can hear max. He had his the same way. I sat down and then lied down looking up at my phone while I read some emails. "So...I like your house. You really got my brother set up here man." "yeah...he enjoys himself" I told him. "Dude, can I tell you a secret. Well its actually worse than a secret" he said. "Umm....whats going on?" I asked. "I blew Shane" he whispered. This took me by surprise. I mean I knew he had, but I never thought he would tell me this sort of thing. "Um you look surprise" he added. "Yeah...well that's cool dude. Not something a straight guy does but okay" I said. "No see...he blackmailed me." "Well that's not cool jon. That's rape" I said. "Well its rape either way." "Was it over..." I began to ask. "yes. But I'm off them now" he said. "O yeah..." "NO I mean it man. For good" he said. "You said that...a lot of times. But if you are that's cool man. Is that why you're here? To get away from them?" I asked. "Yes. But they know where I am..." "Its okay. They wont come here and do anything" I said. "Yeah I hope so. Anyway, dude im sorry for everything you know" "Jon, don't. don't play this game okay. I'm not even worried about it" I told him. "No really I am. I mean I know we're not cool as we used to. But I'm just saying sorry you know" "Okay. Sorry works for me I suppose" I told him. "Do you think...we can be friends?" he asked. "What do you mean?" "Like, hang out, talk? Kind of like we used to?" he asked. "I don't know man. I guess we'd have to start all over" I said. "I don't mind. I know you can't trust me. So I'll start from new. HI my name is Jon" he said as he sat down and extended his hand out so I could shake it. I shrugged. I guess I'd follow along. "I'm aaron" "Nice to meet you Aaron" he said. "Umm...okay well. You're in my room and on my bed...so this is quite the fast introduction" I giggled. "I am...aren't i. well...I'm sorry. I'm not that easy" he smiled. And for a split second, I saw Jon. The real Jon. I saw his smile. His amazing eyes, his button nose, and that twinkle in his eyes. I felt warmth take over. I saw flash backs of the past. I saw the hugs, the kisses, the love. I tried to shake it off but it was all over my mind. "You okay?" he asked. "yeah. Sorry. Spaced out didn't i?" I asked. "Yeah...you did." He said. "Okay well...what do we do?" he asked. "I don't know. Really. Theres lots of things we could do. We already watched a movie." I asked. "yeah and we already ate. So we can just lie down and talk?" he asked. "Yeah I guess. If you want" I told him. "Can I borrow something to sleep in?" he asked. I pointed to the closet. Then I got up myself. He followed me. I took my pants off in front of him. I didn't care. I mean I was wearing boxers. He looked at me. Right at me. I grabbed some pj pants and then switched my shirt to one of the plain white ones. He watched me the whole time. Then I grabbed some other pj pants and a shirt and handed it to him. He changed right there too. Except I didn't watch I was pretending to get the closet cleaned up. I just didn't want to let my past emotions take over so I figured the less eye contact we had the better. Once that was taken care of we went to the bed. I lied down first and then he did. "So...whats it like being all grown up" he asked. "Its great. Lots of fun. Lots of stuff to do. But mostly, lots of freedom" "Yeah like you could walk around naked if you wanted" "I could, but then if anyone looks through the windows I'm screwed." "It's the second story window man. Who could see that far?" he said. "Well a pervert or some lady who wants to see a guy naked" I said. "Well then don't do it then. If you're afraid to show the goods" "I'm not afraid, its just not something I should be showing around" I told him. "I guess. So, who are you dating now?" he asked. "O actually no one. I been hanging out with this girl from work, but we're just really good friends" "I see. I like those" he said. "How many times have you been around the block jon. Be honest" I told him. "Dude not that many. The last person I had sex with was...you. Everyone else has been bjs and touching and stuff. Nothing like...back there." He said. He sounded confused and nervous. "You haven't fucked a girl" I asked. "no. everything but that. I just don't know." "Well...that's good I guess. At least you kind of think things through" "Well I am scared I guess" he said. "well at least you're kind of on the road to being normal" I told him. But I made sure I said that in a dry tone since that had been the reason we started this whole problem. "yeah. I know man. The shane thing, It was not cool. I hated it" he said "I'm sorry. But you know how I feel about that ass hole" I told him. "yeah I know I know" Just then his phone began to go off. A lot. Lots of texts and calls. He tried to ignore it at first but then he finally looked at me, then at his phone, he stood up and walked to the closet. I didn't question him. We weren't best friends or bros, so if he had to do something I wouldn't care. It was good that we kind of talked though. Maybe it meant in the future we may have some sort of friendship. When he came back he looked frustrated then worried all at once. "I have to go do something. My friend got kicked out of his house" he said. "Well what can you do?" I asked. "Nothing. He's staying at an another friends house. They just want to cheer him up" he said. I didn't want to interrogate him more. But at the same time It was late. Real late. I didn't want to tell his mom I let him go out that late. "Jon I can't let you go I'm sorry" I said. "Why?" he asked. "Its late now man. I can't let you its way past your curfew" I said. "What? You're kidding me right?" he asked. "No. I wish I was. Its just too late" I told him. "Dude come on. Unless you want to come with me. They're meeting me at the tree house...well not at the tree house but by there" he said. I thought about the plan he spoke off with Shane. This could be a set up, but would Jon really go through all the trouble just to pull of this set up. What was in it for him besides his pride and his pot. "What about your little brother" I said. "We'll be back in a bit we just want to make sure he's okay I think" he told me. But he was very nervous. What was he planning. "Jon no. we're staying here. I'm sorry" I told him. "But dude." He started complaining. "Sorry." I told him. "I guess its okay. Not your fault. Lets just get back in bed" he said as he guided me to the bed. "Well I'm glad you didn't keep arguing about that because I was about to get real mad at you" I said. "I know and that's why I really really had to be careful. I don't want you to be even more mad at me. " "You care about how mad I am at you?" I asked. "Yes dude. You were an awesome friend" he smiled. "Thanks" I told him. =============================================================== ==================================================== ======================================== thanks again for reading. :D I will get back to work on this so i can have more written before the month ends. i need to make up for lost time. as usual feedback is always good so email me :D tommy the email is tommy199212@hotmail.com
