Chapter 1​

it was barely dawn. i rubbed my eyes and got out of bed. As soon as i opened the door, I felt the cool morning breeze and the warmth of the rising sun. I stepped out on the porch and grabbed my binoculars; I could see farther down the beach where all the waves were breaking.

I ran to my room and slipped on my board shorts. I grabbed my board and headed to the door when my mom woke up.

She was hungover and still on the couch, "Jeremy... Where the hell do you think you're going?"

"I'm going surfing. The waves are perfect down the beach."

She struggled to sit up, "Listen to me, you miss one more day of school and I'm sending you away..."

Since, that was the exact same thing she said everyday I cut school, i rushed out the door and let her talk to herself in her hungover/still drunken state. As I ran down the beach, i looked back at the trashy beach house and rolled my eyes in annoyance of everything in that house.

I sat in the sand and strapped the cord to my ankle. I looked up just as Megan walked up. She was my best friend since middle school. She was actually the first girl I kissed and the first person I came out to... well, the only person.

"Ready to get out there?" she smiled.

"As ready as I'll ever be," I stood up and we ran to the water.

As the sun started shining, the waves kept coming. It was one after another and they kept coming. When I catch a wave, I get such a thrill from feeling like I'm literally on top of the world. Once I start, i can't stop.

We were there for the entire day. It was getting close to sunset when Megan went in. She was on a short curfew after getting caught skipping class and she still had to dry off and get dressed before her parents figured out she was surfing all day.

I sat on my board alone for a few seconds, watching the orange sky slowly go dark. As i was about to go in, I spotted an awesome wave. It was bigger than any I had seen all day; like something that was on the edge of a tsunami. I pulled hard and got ready to stand up. I rode the wave all the way to the end until I was thrown off. I must've been under for a minute.

I walked back to land dragging one half of my board by my ankle and carrying the other in my hand. I sat in the sand and threw the board on the ground. I looked at my knee and saw blood running down my leg.

As I lied my back on the sand, someone covered what was left of the sun, "Hey, the beach closes at sundown... woah, what happened to your leg?"

He kneeled down to get a better look. I looked into his piercing blue eyes and suddenly snapped back to reality.

"Oh, I wiped out earlier and i think i bashed it on some coral," i said softly.

"Come with me and I'll get you a bandage," he put his arm around my waist and i put mine over his shoulder.

I was walking just fine but his touch alone as well as the feeling of his toned muscles made me more weak in the knees than any wound could.

He sat me on the lifegaurd pedestal and grabbed the firstaid kit.

"Really, it's not that bad... it's just a cut," i assured him.

He got out some alcohol, "Yea, a deep one. i dont want it to get infected... plus, it's already got saltwater on it. This is gonna sting a little."

As he poured the alcohol on my knee, he made me feel safe. He put the bandage on my knee and his hand lingered for a second.

He looked into my eyes for the first time with a sorta innocent bambi look, "I'm Andy by the way."

I shook his hand, "I'm Jeremy... thank you."

"It's my job... it's about to get pretty cold; you should put this on," he grabbed his shirt off the pedestal and gave it to me.

I put it on, "Thanks... well, I guess i better get home."

"Let me walk you. I'd feel bad if you tripped in the dark and fell off a pier right after my shift ended," he laughed.

I smiled, "You really dont have to do that..."

"Don't worry. It's what i'm here for," he helped me down and we walked to my house.

I tried to start a conversation, "So, do you surf?"

"When i'm not gaurding the lives of the innocent," he smirked.

"Yea, thanks again by the way."

"No problem. That was a nasty cut. How does it feel?"

"I've had worse," i looked up at him.

He laughed, "Oh, i see... if you want, i can give you some lessons. Keeping your balance is hard and all but..."

"Oh, i can keep my balance. i wasnt talking about surfing actually."

"Oh..." he looked confused.

As we approached the door, i through my board on the porch and he walked me in. We opened the door to the sounds of my drunken mother yelling at her boyfriend, Ted.

"Where the hell have you been, you son of a bitch?" Ted yelled.

"I was surfing..." i said.

"He cut his knee on some coral and i brought him home," Andy tried to explain.

Ted looked at him in confusion, "Who the hell are you?"

"I'm Andy, i lifegaurd down the beach," he put his hand out and retracted it after Ted looked at him with annoyance.

As Ted walked away and started screaming at my mom again I opened the door for Andy, "Thanks again... and sorry you had to see them like this."

"Don't be. It's not your fault," he started to walk away and turned around, "Here's my number. Call me if things get out of hand."

I tried to hide my smile as he wrote his number on my hand. I looked up at his eyes as he said bye and walked away. I ran upstairs to my room and watched him from my window as he walked back down the beach.

Chapter 2​

All i could dream about that night was Andy's piercing blue eyes, Andy's warm muscles, and Andy's soft touch. I slept with his shirt on; it was so soft and comfortable, i didnt wanna take it off... but i needed a reason to see him again.

When i woke up, Ted and my mom were still asleep. I quietly put on some clothes and headed out the door.

It was already sunrise and the beach was much more packed than yesterday. It was a Saturday so that can be expected.

I stood next to the pedestal until he noticed me.

He glanced over, "Oh, hey. Back again?"

"Yeah, I just came to return your shirt," I handed it to him.

He smiled, "Thanks... So, how did things go after i left?"

"Well, they kept yelling and i just went to my room."

"Oh, I'm sorry."

I smirked, "Don't be. That's what i consider a good night at my house."

He saw another lifegaurd walk over, "I guess that means my shift is over."

"Oh, well maybe i'll see you later," I started to walk away.

"Well, i'm about to go to Tiki Tom's if you wanna come."

I smiled, "Yeah that sounds fun."

I sat at the table and waited for him to order something at the bar.

He sat across from me with two beers in hand, "There you go."

"Oh, thanks," I was nervous, "So...do you go to Northwestern?"

"I did, but i dropped out. What about you?"

"Uhm...Middleton High School," i laughed.

He smiled, "Sorry, i didnt even think to ask how old you are when i bought the drink."

"Oh, it's fine. I'm a senior... i drink occasionally," I lied, "So how old are you?"

"24...Yea, i know. I'm 24 and still a lifegaurd. it's not exactly the plan i had for my future."

"Well, it's not too late to do something else," i said.

"Easier said than done... So what's your story?"

I hesitated, "My dad left when i was born... My mom found Ted and he's been in and out of our lives ever since. I haven't been to school for 4 straight days since i was 10 and surfing is my life."

"Wow, sounds tough," he said.

"I'll survive," i smirked.

After a few drinks, i started seeing double and slurring my words, "Why is it so dark?"

"Ok, you've had a little too much... i should get you home," he laughed as he put his arm around my waist.

We walked out of the bar, "Please don't take me home... I don't want them to see me like this."

He put my arm over his shoulder, "Ok, I'll let you stay at my house until you sober up."

It seemed like we walked an hour till we got to his house. It was a small shack next to the beach. When we got to the front steps, he grabbed my legs and picked me up. I passed out as he dropped me on his bed.

I struggled to open my eyes, "Where am I?"

"You're at my house. Go back to sleep," he pulled the blanket over me.

"Come closer," i slurred.

He leaned over me, "Yeah?"

I put my hands on his shoulders and kissed him. That was the last thing i remember.

I woke up to the sound of him sanding his surfboard in the corner. It almost sounded like waves crashing at the beach. It was relaxing but at the same time i felt the consequences of my drunken actions were about to happen.

"Hey," i tried to speak up over the sanding.

He stopped and turned around, "Hey...how'd you sleep?"

"Fine... i have a little bit of a headache though," i sat up.

He pointed to the nightstand, "I got you some aspirin."

i took the pill and a sip of water, "So... did i do anything last night that might..."

"Like kissing me?"

My heart skipped a beat, "Yea, that's the one... listen, I didnt mean to. I hadn't been drunk before and I..."

"Well tell me the truth though. Do you really have feelings for me or was it the beer?"

I tried to make an excuse, "Well, i don't know. I mean, i've never really felt this way for someone...so, yea i guess so."

"Well, why didn't you tell me?" he walked over

"I don't know. i guess i was scared what you might think," i stood up, "I mean i've only come out to one person before and it was a girl so its not like i have much..."

He kissed me, "Shut up."

I put my hands on his shoulders and kissed him back.

Chapter 3​

I was still skipping school every day but for a different reason. When he wasnt working, we'd find some secluded beach and go swimming. Sometimes we'd drive around with the windows down. Mostly, we'd just stay in bed all day together. That was probably my favorite. When he was working, i'd go surfing until his shift was over.

I hadnt seen Megan in a while so we skipped class one day and went surfing. We sat on our boards close to eachother waiting for a wave.

She turned her board to me, "So, what's been up with you lately?"

"What are you talking about?" I pretended i didnt know.

"It's like we never talk anymore and when we do, you act like you're hiding something."

"No i don't," i lied.

She rolled her eyes, "You're doing it right now... since when do you keep secrets from me?"

"I dont..."

"Well then tell me what's up!"

I looked at Andy on his pedestal and back at Megan, "Ok, I... I met a guy."

"Oh my god," she smiled, "This is like the first time since you came out to me."

"I know... that's why I've been busy lately. I really like him and im tryin to make it work."

"Well do i know him?"

I looked over at Andy and so did she.

"Oh, my God! He is so hot...wait," her smile suddenly turned straight, "Does this mean we won't hang out anymore?"

"Don't be crazy," i assured her, "You're the Grace to my Will... accept I'm not a flaming fairy who dresses like a lead singer of a boy band and you're not an ugly, anorexic, red-headed jew."

She laughed, "When you're right, you're right. So are you guys goin to the baunfire tonite?"

"I don't know... i mean I may be with him but im still not ready to come out."

"Nobody will even notice... besides, if anyone asks, you can just say he's your brother."

When his shift was over, we drove back to his shack. I took off my shirt and jumped down on his bed with my back up and my arms spread apart. The ceiling fan felt so good on my warm, freshly tanned back and the sand that didnt come off in the shower felt relaxing. He sat on the bed and i made room for him to lay down. As soon as he did, i spread my arm across his bare chest and rested my head on his warm shoulder.

He kissed my forehead, "I'm exhausted."

"Me too... Are we going to the baunfire tonite?"

He closed his eyes and softly said, "I don't know... i hadnt thought about it. We can if you want though."

"I just wanna sleep right now," I drifted off.

When i woke up, the stubble on his chin was tickling my forehead. I got up and put on a shirt.

I leaned over him and kissed him on the lips, "Wake up."

He opened his eyes and smiled, "Ready?"

We drove to the baunfire and found a parking spot in the sand. As we walked around the beach, i could see the kids from my school gossiping... i guess it was easier than having to make a public announcement. As it got later, i started drinking more and eventually we tailgated because we were to lazy to walk anymore. I sat in his lap and fell asleep on his shoulder.

The next day, everybody knew and instead of feeling embarassed, i felt free. We no longer had to hide and I was actually quite proud to show off my boyfriend... I thought it was funny that he was hotter than any of the boys i went to school with.

Awesome... still lovin it.

Chapter 4​

I held the camera in front of us, "Ok, please don't goof this one."
*FLASH*SNAP*
I looked at the picture; he had his eyes crossed.
"Don't be such a loser," I laughed.
I was sitting in between his legs with my back against his chest. He was sitting against the backboard of his bed with his chin resting on my shoulder and his arms wrapped around my stomach.
"Ok, one more," he said.
*FLASH*SNAP*
As soon as i took the picture, he puckered up and kissed me on the cheek.
"Screw it!" I took one more.
*FLASH*SNAP*
This time, i used my free hand to pull his face to mine and i kissed him on the lips while the picture took.
I put the camera down and pushed him on his back. He slipped off his shirt as i strattled him and started kissing his neck. He turned me over and took control.
A bolt of lightning outside caught my eye, "I have to go."
"Just one more minute," he said as he kissed my neck.
"Seriously, it's starting to rain...my mom thinks i'm surfing."
"Since when do you care what she thinks?"
I pushed him up, "Do you wanna explain where I've been for the past few weeks?"
He hovered over me and looked me in the eye, "Fair enough..."
I kissed him goodbye and ran home. I was soaked by the time i got inside. My mom was sitting on the couch, mesmerized by the tv.
I ran upstairs and took off my wet shirt. I was about to go to sleep when i heard knocking at my window. I looked over at Andy standing on the ledge.
I ran over and opened the window, "What the hell are you doing here?"
He quietly came inside, "I couldn't wait for tomorrow."
I closed the window, "Well, if Ted catches you, we're both dead."
He locked the door, "He wont catch us."
I smiled and started kissing him. As i ran my fingers through his hair, i felt his cold neck shaking.
"You're freezing... you need to get some dry clothes on," I took his shirt off, "I'll get one of my shirts."
"You're like 2 sizes smaller than me," he said.
"Well, do you suggest I go get a shirt out of Ted's closet?"
"I've got a better idea."
We stripped down to our briefs and snuggled under the covers. I knew he was just trying to get some action but the body heat actually helped alot. He started kissing my neck and I sat in his lap, wrapping my legs around his waist. I kissed him on the cheek and rested my head on his shoulder.
I was so exhausted, "Do you mind if we just go to sleep?"
He stopped kissing, "Of course not."
He lied on his back and I lied my head on his chest. When he breathed, his warm stomach lifted my chest up and down, helping me fall asleep. As I drifted off, he kissed me on the head and rubbed his hand across my back.
When i woke up, he left me a note telling me to meet him at the beach. I started to get ready when Ted came storming in.
"You have something you wanna tell me?" he was furious.
I felt caught and looked around to make sure Andy didnt leave anything, "No...why would I?"
He held up the picture of Andy kissing me on the cheek.
"Where did you get that?" I was confused.
"Gus told me he saw it on myspace," he threw the picture at me, "No son of mine is gonna be a queer."
"Well i guess it's a good thing i'm not your son," i turned away.
He grabbed me by the arm and threw me to the ground, "What the hell did you just say."
I tried to pull away as he raised his hand at me. Just as he was about to hit me, Andy stormed through the door and punched him in the nose.
I got up and ran behind Andy, "What are you doing here?"
"I was about to leave and realized i left my keys."
"You, son of a bitch. Get the hell out of my house," he wiped the blood from his nose.
I grabbed Andy's hand, "Fine... I'm going with him."
As we walked down the stairs, Ted shouted, "Good... No queer is gonna live under my roof!"
I came back for my clothes the next day while Ted was at work. My mom was waiting for me in tears.
"Honey, please don't go... i know i've made some mistakes but i can change."
"Mom, it's too late. You've made your decision to let Ted be the most important thing in your life... and I've made the same decision about Andy," I said.
"Please think about what you're doing. How do you know you're..."
I stopped her, "Gay? Mom, it's not something i chose... it's just the way it is. And if you even knew why I'm with Andy, you'd know it has nothing to do with his gender."
As i got my clothes, I walked out and put them in the back of the truck.
I opened the door and sat in the passenger seat, "Ok... i'm ready."
"Are you sure you wanna do this?"
"It's the only thing I'm sure about."

"Don't be crazy," i assured her, "You're the Grace to my Will... accept I'm not a flaming fairy who dresses like a lead singer of a boy band and you're not an ugly, anorexic, red-headed jew."

Chapter 5​

We lied in bed for hours a day. I'd stare in his eyes, he'd wrap his arms around me, and I'd just rest my head on his shoulder. We'd talk about any random thing that came to mind... or we'd just lay there sleeping or awake. It's not the most masculine thing to say but i felt safe when i was cuddled in his arms.
He wrapped his arm around me with my back to his chest, "What are you thinking about?"
"My dad," i said softly.
"You dont have to worry about him anymore," he kissed the back of my head.
"Not Ted...He wasn't even close to a father figure...I'm talking about my real dad," I held his arm closer.
"I thought you didnt know who he was," he was confused.
"I know who he is... i just never had the guts to meet him. His name is Kenneth Gibson."
He lifted himself on his elbow, "The senator? How exactly do you know..."
"I've known since he was elected... My mom had a picture of him holding me when i was born. It's the only thing she ever gave me of his. She never told me anything about him or why he left."
"Well, why are you suddenly thinking of him?"
I turned on my back and looked him in the eyes, "I'm ready to meet him."
"He's the senator of California. You can't just walk into his office and..."
"I scheduled an interview with him for a summer internship."
He brushed my arm with his hand, "So, you're just gonna bring it up in the middle of the interview? Baby, you can't get your hopes up..."
"He walked out on me when i was less than a month old... He owes me a whole lot more than a talk and that's all im asking for."
"I undrestand, but he has a family... he has a reputation..."
I turned back on my side, "Just forget i brought it up."
I gave Andy the silent treatment for the rest of the night. The next morning, he had to go lifegaurd and i went to the interview. It was at this big office building downtown.
I felt nervous at first but when the receptionist told me to go into his office, it turned to excitement. I went in and sat on the opposite side of his desk. As i looked at him, i suddenly felt like all my questions were about to be answered.
"What's your name again?"
"Jeremy Burk," I put a little emphasis on my last name in hopes that he would suddenly recognize it.
"Have you held any previous jobs?" he was still looking down at his clipboard.
"No, sir... this would be the first."
"And, you do know that there is no pay?"
"Yes, sir."
"What about politics interests you?"
"Alot...it's hard to just name one thing," i had no clue about anything political.
"Do you have any family history of mental illness?"
"I wouldn't know... i've never met my father."
"Why do you think you're right for the internship?"
"Well, i'm very loyal and honest... sir, to tell you the truth, i have no interest in this internship," i gave up.
He finally looked up, "Well may i ask what you're doin here?"
"I had to meet you," i said.
"I'm sorry?" he was confused.
"Laura Burk is my mother... you're my father," i put it out there.
His expression suddenly changed to what could be described as fear, "So what do you want?... money? or just a good old fashion scandal?"
"No, it's not like that at all... sir, i've lived my entire life with a shitty excuse for a father and i never asked for much... i just want to talk."
He started to calm down, "Well what do you wanna know?"
"Why did you walk out on us?"
"You don't know?"
"All my mom told me is that you just left one day."
"You're mom was using drugs when you were born... i tried to have her hospitalized but she wouldnt go. I had to get away from her and I tried to take you but she threatened to kill herself if i took you."
"Well, why didnt you fight for me?"
"When you were born, i knew that i wanted to be in office. It was no way to start off a term with a history like that. I couldn't have my past revealed during an election."
"So, you were thinking of you?"
"Yes, and I'm sorry but i have to do the same now... So, if you want money, i'll give it to you but I'm gonna have to ask you to stay away from me and my family."
I got up, "Don't worry... i won't be a problem."
I left and that was the last time i ever saw him. I guess it would've been appropriate payback to out him to the press but i wanted to avoid the scandal just as much as he did. Besides, if that would've caused half the pain on his family as not having a father at all, i'd feel too guilty.
I walked down the beach until i found a private area. I just sat there until the sun went down, staring at the waves. All i could do is think how there were so many people out there and not one would ever want me.
I was crying with my head between my knees, when a hand on my shoulder startled me. I turned my head to see Andy sqautting behind me. He sat down behind me and rested my back on his chest in between his legs with his arms wrapped around me.
I held his arms closer, "You were right...I'm sorry i didnt listen."
"Don't say that. You were brave to go meet him," he kissed me on the neck.
I snuggled closer, "I just want someone to want me."
"Well, i want you. Don't ever doubt that... I love you," he whispered in my ear.
I stood up as he did, "I'm in love with you too."
I wrapped my arms around his shoulders and he wrapped his around my waist. As he kissed me on the lips, i rested my head on his chest until i fell asleep. He carried me to the truck and we went home.
When i woke up in the middle of the night, he was staring in my eyes. His piercing blue eyes made me feel safe. We talked the rest of the night about any random thought that came to mind and i cuddled close to him until we both fell asleep.
