Chapter 10
I wanted to run. Just run! Mr. Garcia just crossed his arms and turned around to look at Monica and Franz.
“If I see you two dancing like that again, you can bet I’ll be watching. Make room for the holy spirit.” He put his hands between them to simulate the space they had to have between them.
“You may go back into the hall now.” He said. Franz closed his mouth finally after the shock of seeing me and Tom. He turned around and stumbled his way into the hall.
Monica stepped to me and stood beside me. I wanted to run, but they both grabbed both of my hands. Mr. Garcia just sighed loudly and put his hands up in desperation.
“You know, I could have never seen this coming.” Tom let out a slight nervous chuckle. “I’m not going to tell anyone, it’s none of my business, none at all.” He shook Tom’s hand and mine, and I felt Monica’s hand slip away from my other hand. “Thanks Mr. Garcia.” Tom said confidently. I heard Monica gulp next to me. “I’m going to go back inside now, enjoy the rest of your night.” Mr. Garcia said as he walked back inside the hall. When he was inside Monica erupted into a flurry of slapping Tom and me on the arms.
“What the fuck is the matter with you two?!” She yelled. “He couldn’t resist this…” Tom said, sliding his hand down his chest. Monica just groaned loudly and I smiled. “You could have seriously gotten caught…by someone a lot worse.” She said. My thoughts immediately flashed to Franz, who had went back inside, and I looked at Tom and I knew he was thinking about him too.
That was it. Franz would tell, and it would be over. I sat down and rubbed my eyes. Tom sat next to me, wrapped his black jacket around me, and gave me a kiss on the cheek. “I’ll go see what’s up, alright? I’ll be back.” He looked at Monica and mouthed the word “Watch Him” to her. “I’ll be fine, just…be careful…I don’t know what Franz would do…” I said. He smiled at me, rubbed my back, and walked inside, and Monica sat down beside me.
“Wow…he…Tom…he just really loves you…it’s just how he acts towards you, I can tell.” She said.
“I love him…I really don’t deserve him…he’s so fucking sweet.” Monica looked at me surprised.
“I don’t know…that hair…kinda bugs me…” She said. I thought about his hair, it looked like the “Marine” cut. The hair that marines and army guys get when they enter the forces, that’s how it was; it was a big turn on for me. “I love his hair…or lack thereof…” I said smiling. She just rolled her eyes. “You love everything about him.” I smiled at her. “His chest is my favorite….God I love his football body!” She just groaned loudly. She rubbed me on the back. “So are you ok?” She asked.
I just nodded in response. Tom walked out of the hall with Franz next to him, I expected some struggle or something, but it looked ok to me. “I’m just shocked is all…I mean…Tom, you never gave any sense that you were gay…” He turned to me. “But Daniel, I’m sorry but I gotta admit…I had my suspicions.” He said. I I just smirked in response. “Tom I had no idea!” Franz said, throwing up his arms in exclamation. “Are you…gonna tell anyone?” Tom asked. “No! It’s your life, not mine!” Franz said. Tom just smiled at him. It amazed me how Tom was just so…relaxed about it all. Franz just sighed loudly. “Crazy night alright…Monica, wanna go back inside and let these two…mingle?” He said smiling. That joke made me feel so much comfortable. Tom just rolled his eyes and sat down next to me. “Get out of here.” I whispered to Monica. She smiled and went back inside with him, without saying a word. When that door shut, Tom and I sat there for a few minutes, in an awkward silence.
“I wanna kiss you, but I’m afraid of someone walking out…” He said. I turned and stared at his hair. I loved it, in fact, was there anything I didn’t like about him? He was practically perfect. I sat there thinking of something bad to say about him…he was a bit cocky at times…but not a lot. I sat staring at his hair. “What? Something on my head?” He rubbed his head with his hand, I couldn’t stop looking at the little hair he had.
“No…it’s perfect…” I gave him a kiss and his eyebrows rose. “Sometimes you scare me Dan…” He said. Inside the sound of loud bass stopped. I looked at my watch on my cell phone, and the dance was nearly over. A slow song started.
“Shall I have this dance?” Tom said in a sly manner. “Bitch what makes you think I want to dance with you?” I said sarcastically. We both smiled and he grabbed me and forced me to stand up. He led to behind the hall, in the darkness of the teacher parking lot.
“One dance, just one.” He said. I hugged him and laid my head on his shoulder. Our arms were wrapped around each other and our heads on each other’s shoulder. We moved slowly back and forth. For the next minute, it felt so good to be like this. It was something I had dreamed of. The back door of the hall flung open and out walked Mr. Garcia. I opened my eyes to look at him as he stood there, staring at us both. I closed my eyes and I heard him walk away without saying anything. For the next few minutes, we danced like this. The feeling was just indiscernibly good. After the song was over, we gently let go of each other. We smiled and kissed.
“Let’s go see what’s going on out front, the dance is over now anyway.” He said. I obeyed and followed him. Out front was a flurry of kids driving away. I saw Nick getting into his own car. Some of Tom’s football buddies walked over to him and I quietly slipped away. I stood there for a second when Franz walked up to me, hand out.
“We ok? I’m not gonna tell.” He said. “Cool, we are.” We bumped hands and he walked off to his car. Monica ran up to me squealing in happiness. “He asked me out next week! Oh my God I’m so happy!” She jumped up and down clapping and I just stared. “Calm down before you make a scene.” She stopped and looked around. “Where’s your honey boo-boo?” She said laughing. I rolled my eyes and pointed to where he was. "With the football team…” I said.
“I’m hungry…let’s say my place? Movie? Or do you have plans with him?” Monica said. I looked over at Tom, he was laughing and hanging out, and I just decided to go. “Yeah sure.” We walked to our cars. I got in mine and started the ignition, when someone popped into my car into the seat next to me before I could close the door. I nearly jumped out of my seat. “Now I know you weren’t leaving without me!” Tom said.
“You scared the SHIT out of me!” I hit him in the arm. “Sorry…” He smiled and shut the door. “Shall we do it here or would you rather wait until we get a bed?” He said smiling. I opened my mouth the answer when the truck rocked behind me. I looked behind to see someone lying in the back of my truck.
Tom sighed loudly. “Cooper, get the fuck out of the truck!” He yelled. Cooper laughed and got out and came to Tom’s side of the car and popped his head though the window. “What are you two love-birds doing?” He said, laughing. “What do you want Cooper?” Tom said, with clear agitation in his voice. “A bunch of us are heading over for a late movie…Darcy is going man, you gotta come!” He said. I got boiling mad. I turned the ignition. “This car is moving with or without your head in it.” I said. “Slow your roll!” Cooper said. “You gotta come man! Darcy is waiting! So are her tits! If your boyfriend here can spare you.” He said. I just sat there and didn’t look.
“Why do you even hang out with this band loser?” Cooper said. I floored it for a split second and Cooper jumped and hit his head hard on the roof of my truck. “Fucking fag!” He yelled, rubbing his head. “Whatever dude…you coming?” He asked Tom. “No, she’s all yours, I’m not interested.” He said.
“Sweet, See ya!” Cooper said, shrugging. He walked off.
“You can go if you want Tom…really.” I said. He just sat staring at me. “Don’t let him get to you, we’re still on a date, and I wanna spend this night with you.” He smiled and scooted closer to me. “You’re so perfect…” I said whispering to myself. “Like hell I am!” He yelled back. “Tom, I can’t even think of something I don’t like about you, you’re perfect! You know exactly what to say and when to say it, exactly what to do and when to do it, you’re hot, your compassionate, you’re the most amazing guy I’ve ever met! Even before we were dating!” I yelled at him. “I’m not perfect…sure, I may be a great boyfriend, but that doesn’t mean I’m a great person.” He said quietly. “Cooper’s right…why do you waste your time with me!?” I yelled in his face. “You’re letting him get to you…just ignore it.” He said calmly.
I had tears in my eyes. “Why don’t you just go with Darcy!? Go be the hot jock and score like the rest of them!” I slammed my head into my steering wheel and cried. He lifted me up and got in my face. “I’m with you! I am with you Dan! Only you! You’re letting him get to you! For as long as I have known you, you let these fucking shitty idiots get to you!” He let go. “I am Tom, I am your boyfriend! You’re letting everything that has happened tonight, nearly getting caught, everything! Get to you!” He gave me a long kiss and got out of my face. He sat there and rubbed his eyes. “Dan, I love the shit out of ya, but you make it so hard sometimes…” He said. I felt bad. I shouldn’t let Cooper or anyone else get to me and my relationship with
Tom. I knew it. I think deep down, that the only way to get Tom to act really compassionate is when I’m hurt. I wanted to get hurt; cause then he would act like this. I snuggled close to him and put my head on his shoulder. “Sorry…” I said, sniffling. He gave me a kiss on the head. “It’s alright, long, crazy night…”
“I need to go for a walk…” I said. I needed to, to clear my head. “Ok, I’ll come with.” Tom said eagerly.
“No…just, I don’t know…please, just let me go, I’ll be back in like, 15 minutes.” I said. He stared at me.
“Well…alright…want me to wait?” He asked. I didn’t answer, I just walked.
I walked away from the parking lot, not looking back. It was a partly cloudy night, the ground wet from some sprinkling of rain earlier. I thought about it all. Tom, Cooper, Grades, Earth, I thought about it all. I had such low hopes for the human race. Everywhere I looked, I saw the big and powerful harassing the smaller weak people. People like Cooper, who take pride in being superior and won’t forget to remind you of that. People like him, who would grow up, be successful, and have kids, a beautiful wife, a good job, a nice, big house, and people like me, who were left in a rut, with no hopes for the future. Was I right? Was this how it worked today? The great human race, who boasts of its superiority over this planet, can’t even handle itself? In the past, God was always present, talking and actively present in the past lives of humans, where was he now?
Where was he? Maybe God isn’t God. Maybe he was a powerful being, which saw an opportunity for power, and took it. Maybe it was all a lie. Maybe humans couldn’t handle the thought of not knowing what happens after death, so we wrote what we wanted to happen. When we die, nothing special happens. The brain shuts down, and there is nothing. There is no great white light; there is no stairway to great golden gates in the sky. The brain ceases to function, and you cease to exist. Who knows what happens? I sure as hell didn’t. I try to look at it from a scientific view, of what happens to the body after we stop. I wish someone could tell me.
I took off my jacket and threw it on the ground. I stomped on it and kicked it out of anger. I looked to a house across the street and saw the blinds open, with an elderly woman staring at me. She didn’t hesitate to close the blinds. We stared at each other. I leaned over to pick up my jacket, and when I looked back up, the blinds were closed and she had vanished. I fell back into the wet grass, I didn’t care. I felt the cold water seep through my shirt and I let it. I closed my eyes, and opened them, staring at the moon.
How was it that, someone like Tom, someone who is admired by such a great many people, can want me? My heart skipped a beat when I thought of him. He was everything I hated, a jock, a football player, popular, loved by the girls. How did it happen that the one thing I can’t stand the most I end up loving? I loved him. He reminded me that I wasn’t alone. He made me forget my grades, my parents, my problems, and he made me happy. I slapped myself in the head. I stood up, sitting on the ground. A car drove by and a man inside it stared at me as he drove by. I looked at my clock to read 10:30 p.m. Maybe it was because I wanted a boyfriend so bad, I would do anything to make it work.
I remember once, in 8th grade, our class took a week to go to Hume Lake Christian Camp. Tom and I were in the same cabin with a few other class mates. I was obsessed with him; I had been since 7th grade. He was so straight. I stopped talking to him. Throughout the week he asked me “What’s wrong?” and “What did I do?” But I ignored it. It hurt to be around him, to see him. That Friday, while we were on the bus getting ready to leave. He sat right next to me. I was surprised; for sure he would stop talking to me. “I don’t know what’s up with you, but I guess I love ya too much to let you be like this.” He gave me one of those winks and offered me some chips we had with him. I smiled and took it, and for the ride home we talked, like nothing happened. He never asked me what was wrong again.
I stood up only to feel my ass was wet from the grass. The moon was disappearing behind the clouds. It was now 10:37. I walked back slowly to the parking lot, kicking a leaf the whole way. When I got there, the parking lot was empty. Mr. Garcia was locking the doors of the hall and we smiled at me and walked off to his car. I got in mine and turned on the ignition. I drove him, with no radio. When I got home, my parents weren’t there. I found a note on the coffee table. “Be Back Soon, helping your sister with the kids.” It said. I dropped it and I dropped on the couch. I wanted to pick up the remote, turn on the TV, but instead I threw a blanket over myself and put a pillow under my head. I was near sleep when my house phone rang. “Honey, me and your dad will stay the night here, your sister isn’t feeling good and the kids are a handful, will you be ok?” My mom asked. “Yeah I’ll be fine, everything’s locked.”
“Ok, Goodnight Sweetie.” We both hung up and I collapsed into my couch again. I fell asleep. I wanted to see Tom; I wanted him to hold me. I wanted to see those brown eyes of his and that smile he gives. He was probably at the party anyway…having fun…with Nick and Darcy…with Cooper…with them all... I fell asleep at 11:05. I woke up in a hurry. I looked over to see it was only 12:07! I stood up; the couch was damp from my wet shirt. There was rapid knocking and someone ringing my doorbell. I picked up my dad’s steel bat he had at the door and I turned on the outside light. I counted to 3 and flung the door open. Tom forced his way in and shut the door behind him. I dropped the bat stared at him, who was pacing back and forth in my living room. “So, I was sitting there right? Just relaxing and minding my own business, when Darcy comes over and sits on my lap! She tells me how much she’s interested in me, with Cooper behind her giving me thumbs up, and she kisses me!” He yelled. My eyebrows went up in surprise, and I opened my mouth to answer, but he kept talking. “So she stopped, and I realized, that, she’s a whore! She’s been with Cooper and half of the football team, and all I can think of is, you! I couldn’t get the thought of you out of my head.” He stopped for a breath and he sat down on the couch.
“I didn’t want her and her big tits, I wanted you! You’re perfect for me Dan! You’re not too big, yet not too small. You’re…You’re always there for me, your more than just this guy I fuck. I’m more than just a jock guy. This is more than just a fuck occasionally. When she kissed me, I was disgusted! I didn’t want that! I wanted you!” He yelled. I heard a crash out back and we both stopped and froze.
“What was that?” I said. Tom just shrugged his shoulders. I grabbed the bat and walked to my kitchen window, which had a wide view of my backyard. I saw a white figure run from one bush to another, I recognized it immediately. The hair was a golden brown, and the figure and clothes I recognized immediately. It was Cooper. “Shut the fuck up! Watch where you’re going!” I heard him whisper to Nick, who was also there. I hid in a bush behind them a good 13 feet and listened in; they had a big black trash bag with them. “Ok, got the paper?” Nick asked Cooper. “Yeah, this is going to be awesome dude.” I looked back at Tom, who was also in another bush behind me. He just shrugged at me. Nick and Cooper moved behind a tree that was in front of the gate leading to my backyard. “Get ready.” Cooper told Nick. “You wouldn’t try anything, would you?” I said, altering my voice to make it lower. “Where did that come from!?” Cooper said, jumping. They looked around, but my backyard had no lighting. I whistled and my dog, “Puppy” came running out of the back yard garage and stopped at me. I put my hood on and stood up. “Get them!” I yelled at Puppy. Puppy wasn’t a ferocious dog, never hurt anyone, but he was big and a little scary. “Oh shit!” Nick yelled, they both ran, leaving the trash bag and ran down the street. Puppy chased them around the corner until he came back. “Good dog!” I said. I threw his chew toy back inside the gate and he ran back into the backyard and I locked the gate.
“Nice job!” Tom said laughing. “She kissed you huh?” I said quickly. “Yeah…” He said in a low tone. “Well…at least you came to me and told me…” I said walking back inside the house, Tom followed and I locked the door. “Look, I just wanted to say, that this thing, we have, this relationship, I’m all in.” He said. He looked me right into the eyes. “All in? You sure you want to associate yourself with me?” I said smiling. He just hugged me. “Yes.” That’s all he said, just a plain, “yes”. We stared at each other. I grabbed his head by the cheeks on both sides and pulled him into a kiss. His lips were soft and warm, like they always are. I loved it. I gave him one long kiss, then one quick little peck. I didn’t let go, we just stared at each other.
I realize now…I didn’t hate what he was. So he was a jock? So he had jock friends? Oh well, I loved the big guy, and if he was all in, I was too. I let go. He laughed and pushed me down onto the couch and forced his tongue into my mouth. As we kissed, I failed to notice the flurry of cars gathering outside.
I looked at the clock, it read 2:06 a.m. We had been making out for that long. “Hey faggot! Come on out!” I heard outside. “What was that?” Tom asked. He got off of me and stood up. “Who else would ruin this…?” I said. I picked up the bat and opened my front door. Six cars were parked around my street. A group of kids was standing in my front yard. Nick was standing in front of them, slouched over, with Cooper behind him. I looked the group over; it was mostly football players and their girlfriends, and a few I recognized from school. “Come on faggot…tell EVERYONE here…how you-you LOVE my brother! Tell them!!” Nick yelled. “He’s drunk…” Tom said, standing behind me. “Get out of here Nick…before I call the cops.” I said boldly. “Tell them Tom…tell them, how on one rainy day…you two kissed! Tell EVERYONE here how you two are boyfriends! Tell them! Tell them how the STAR of the varsity football team loves cock! Tell them all how you love this faggot here!” He was stumbling around my yard. “He’s just drunk Tom…it’s not true…Is it?” Cooper asked Tom. Tom froze, he didn’t move or speak, and I even think he stopped breathing.
I lost it. I dropped the bat and punched Nick, right in the jaw. He fell down to the ground. Tom gasped and the rest of the group got wide eyed. “Get up Nick! Come on! You’ve wanted to punch me for a long time!” I said, taunting him. “FAGGOT!” He stood up and punched me; I charged him and tackled him. We wrestled on the ground. Tom pulled me off and Cooper held back Nick. Nick had blood coming out of his nose and my left cheek was in pain. Rain started to fall. I broke out of Tom’s hold and charged him again, this time laying two good punches right in his stomach. “If you EVER come at me AGAIN, I WILL kick your ass!” I yelled at him as Tom pulled me back once again.
“It’s in your BEST interest, if I never saw you again!” I yelled at him. Nick wrestled with Cooper but Cooper held him back. “I got him…” Cooper said, carrying Nick off to his car. “I told Nick not to drink anymore…you guys know that me and Daniel here aren’t going out, each and every single one of us has seen Nick when he’s drunk, we can’t honestly believe him.” Tom said, it was the way he said it. The group just nodded, probably speechless. I rubbed my cheek. They got in their cars and drove off. We walked back inside. We instantly started kissing. The clock read 3:02 a.m.
We stopped for a moment. “Look, Tom, I just want to let you know, that I’m all in this too, 100%” I said. He smiled. “Good, I’m happy to hear that, and now that we made play offs in football…your gonna be my treat when we champion.” He said, winking and laughing at me. We continued kissing.
I grabbed his wrists and forced his arms against the couch as we kissed. I lay on top of him. I wanted him bad, really, really, bad. He stood up and took off his shirt. I kissed and licked his nipple and he closed his eyes and let put a slight moan. I moved down to his belly button and kissed and licked it. He stopped me and took my shirt off for me. Normally I would be afraid to take it off, because I didn’t exactly have a porn star body like Tom’s, but I wasn’t afraid to hold back this time. He took it off and threw my shirt onto the floor. We kissed some more. I stopped the kissing and I moved slowly down to his shorts, letting my tongue guide down his chest as I crept down there. I slid down his athletic shorts, revealing his boxers with a tent sticking up. I slid them off his cock and I let my tongue surround his cock. I felt him tense up and moan. “Dan…fuck…” He said. My tongue slid up and down his cock and I took it all into my mouth. It was amazing; it was different than those other times we were together, I wasn’t afraid this time to do what I wanted to him, and to let him do what he wanted to me.
He surprised me by lifting me up and carrying me to the kitchen counter. “My turn.” He said smiling. He undid my pants and I took them off. He slid down my boxers and took my cock, all in his warm mouth without any hesitation. I grabbed the side of the counter and let out a gasp. “Holy shit…” I said. He slid it in and out of his mouth at a fast pace. I closed my eyes and enjoyed the sensation all I could. I looked down at him. ‘There he is Dan, there’s your boyfriend.’ I thought to myself. I closed my eyes again. He stopped un-expectantly and ran to his shorts; I couldn’t help but laugh at his nice ass running around. He grabbed his wallet and pulled out a condom. “Were you expecting to get some or what?” I asked him. “You never know…” He said smiling at me. He handed it to me and I slid it on. He lied down on the couch and put my legs over my shoulders.
I slid myself in inch by inch; he was gasping and making facial expressions the whole way in. It made me happy. His semi-hairy legs thrown over my shoulder, and I was ready. I slid in and out slowly. He moaned and gasped, it was amazing. “Faster…” He said. I obeyed and went faster, and he made more gasps and faces. Before I knew it I was going faster and faster. “Fuck!” He said. “Oh god…” He said. I stopped and pulled out. We stood up and switched positions, he slid on his own condom and he forces himself into my hole, which was ok with me, I didn’t like it slow. He threw my legs over his shoulders and started pounding me. I jacked as he did. I couldn’t help but moan. “I’m gonna cum!” I yelled, and squirts of cum landed on my chest as Tom slowed down and pulled out. I lay there, stroking his cock. “I’m gonna cum.” He said. I stopped, and he didn’t cum, I was toying with him.
“God dammit!” He yelled. I laughed and sucked him off to completion, letting his hot load land in my mouth. He put his face right into mine. “You bitch.” He said smiling, and with that he kissed me, tasting himself inside me. He looked me over and saw the cum still on my chest. “Let me clean that up for you.” He said smiling, and his tongue guided itself over my chest.
He fell next to me on the couch and I threw the blanket over us. He hugged me, both of us still naked and I could feel his cock rubbing against my ass. “I remember, in 8th grade, we made a pact not to have sex until marriage…” He said smiling. I looked at the clock, it read 4:18 a.m. We both fell asleep, kissing.
The next day was school. The big news was that we had made the play offs and everyone was happy. We gathered in the gym for a morning rally the school council had put together. “You look really happy today!” Monica said as we walked in. “It was a good night, I’ll tell you later…” I said smiling. As we walked in, I noticed some of the football guys pointing at me and whispering. I just blew it off, whatever.
“Welcome to the rally! Are you ready to win the champion title!?” Mr. Garcia said at us. We all cheered. “Good, then welcome our football team!” Everyone cheered and clapped. I noticed as they gathered down there that Tom wasn’t there. “Where’s Tom?” Monica asked me. “I have no idea…” I said, puzzled.
