Date: Fri, 10 Sep 2004 01:19:47 -0400 From: dwedno@hotmail.com Subject: Chapters 13-17 of the Tunnel Hi all, Not much new to report except that I have had five new people write to tell me how much they like the story. Thanks to all for that. That brings the number of e-mailers over twenty five. Thank you. thank you, thank you..... I will let the story talk for itself now. **Two of these chapters have be read by a friend already and other then being told it was very emotional I will wait from all of you to hear if that is true.** There is a little more reading on these four chapters then in the others. Chapter 14 is a bit long so for those of you who don't get enough. I hope this will keep those of you happy that complained they weren't getting enough to read happy for a bit longer then usual. LOL! I guess I got a little carried away with it. MY friend Pat used to tell me that nobody likes to read long chapters but I know personally if the chapter is good I certainly don't want it to end anytime soon!! Please remember that this story is intended for those 18 years old and older to read. Anyone under that age is on their own. Personally I don't care who reads it but putting a disclaimer on it makes me safe. Enjoy all... Chapter 13. Fun at the mall and then some? I must have been tired because I didn't even remember Shawn falling asleep. Usually he is out before I am. All I knew was it was the best rest I had since the comet hit. I rolled over forcing Shawn off of me. He apparently slept on me all night long. We both must have slept well. I looked at the clock. Wow 8:30. I really did sleep. I rolled my body up and put my legs onto the floor and sat up, stretched and gave a nice yell. I guess Shawn was up too because he came up behind me and gave me a hug from behind. "Morning cutie." "Hey Tommy." "Hey yourself. Ready to go have fun today?" "Oh yeah the mall! Yeah let's go now." "Not quite yet in a little bit. I gotta pee!" "Me too, can I come with you?" "I suppose so." Talk about attachment. I never thought I would say this but I might actually need a break from him eventually. He is starting to hang now. And of all things as I approached the bathroom door it opened and Danny came out. "Morning Dan, sleep well?" I felt like saying more but I didn't. "Oh in case you didn't hear we are going to the Crystal mall today." "We are, awesome. I love that place." "No, I mean Jon, Shawn and myself." "You guys can do whatever you want to because no one fessed up to throwing the bread yet." I didn't wait for his comment I walked in the bathroom and Shawn followed and shut the door. I felt like a doggie was following me." I whipped out my cock and started to spray the toilet with piss. I had my usual morning hard on too which made it all the more difficult to find the bowl. I had to push my puppy down so I didn't spray the whole seat and so on. "What's wrong Tommy? Too hard to pee?" "Look you munchkin next time keep your comments to yourself or you can wait outside. Or maybe I will take this hard six inches and see how it feels up your butt?" "No, no, no that's okay I will behave I promise. Hey are we gonna measure you like you said?" "I guess so just let me wake up some okay? Then I will decide." "Sure Tom." I finished up and flushed and went next to the bowl at the sink to wash up. He snuck in and took out his little member and started to take a leak. I watched him go out of curiosity and he caught me right away. That was my fetish. I loved to watch someone pee. Even myself for some reason it turned me on. I already felt the stirring in my loins from watching him go. "Did you enjoy watching me pee?" "Very much so!" "Boy Tommy you are pervert!" "Thank you. Maybe next time you can pee in my mouth." "Awwww now that's just gross! YUCK! EWWWWW!" "Oh knock it off I was kidding." "Good you grossed me out for a second." "Oh be quiet and flush piss boy!" "I am not a piss boy!" I can see its going to be an interesting morning, typical nine year old wining. I finished washing and without saying anything else I dried and walked back to change. I heard noise downstairs and by this hour figured everyone was awake. We both got dressed and were quickly downstairs to eat. Joey, Danny his brother and Jon were already eating as I came down with Shawn in tow. "Morning guys." "Morning Tommy." Jon said cheerfully. I went up behind him and gave him a kiss on top of his head. I whispered in his ear about him being so cheery and I immediately saw the jealousy in Shawn's face because I suddenly wasn't paying attention to him. Guess he will have to get used to it after all I want my boy back in my bed sooner or later. He whispered back about Shawn watching like a hawk. "I know Jon, it will pass or there will just be adjustments that will have to be made." I said that aloud on purpose as I walked over to grab a bowl for my cereal. "Billy still sleeping?" "Yeah, said Joe. He didn't move all night." "Did you check on him at all Joey?" "No, why?" I got up in a panic. "Because he almost drowned yesterday and anything could happen in his sleep if he still had water in his lungs!" I ran over to check him and everyone else followed. Thankfully he was okay and breathing fine. Now with the entire ruckus he was awake with the rest of us. "Sorry we woke you but I wanted to make sure you were okay after yesterday." "I'm fine he said in a groggy voice. Thanks though." He sat up and then got up. "I gotta pee." "Thanks for sharing." Joey said. He gave him a dirty look as he stumbled up the steps in his underwear. I went to sit and eat and see how long it would take for the topic of the mall to come up. About five whole minutes to be exact. When Shawn opened his mouth about wanting to know when we were going to leave. "I told you upstairs when we are ready. Jon will tell me when he is ready and then we can go." "What about us?" Joey asked. "Sorry, I told you last night none of you are going with me until I find out who threw the bread." "Awww come on your not fucking serious!" "Ummm. Yes I am and watch the cursing with the boy here!" I pointed at Christian. "Oh, sorry Dan. Tommy come on why do we all have to be punished when we didn't..." he stopped talking real fast. "Didn't what Joe?" "Nothing..." I saw him glare at Danny but say nothing and only Shawn knew that I knew who did it now even though they all knew. It was an evil game but I need to keep my side of this up and stick to my word or it will mean nothing when it comes to future respect. "Jon are you ready?" "Yeah since 8am when I got up. You slept late." "I know I was beat!" "Okay I am going to get the car keys and since we are dressed so we can go now." I could sense the tension building as we got ready to leave. Billy came back down and was talking with Joe. They were saying something quietly to each other and I knew it couldn't last much longer. "See you guys tonight. We will be gone all day after all there are a lot of stores to check out." I rubbed it in and then headed out to the car with Shawn and Jon in tow. Jon shut the door. I heard loud yelling from inside but I didn't stop. I snickered and looked at Jon. "YOU ARE A CLASS 'A' PRICK!" "Thank you. Now if Danny comes out and fesses up..." "You know?" "Yeah I found out last night." I looked at Shawn to make sure he was quiet and didn't say a word, he just smiled and I smiled back. Some things are private! "So how did you find out?" "Well..." "Thomas?" "Oh sure use that full name method on me Jonathan." We both laughed and Shawn was clueless. "Okay I was at the top of the steps when I heard Billy and Joe talking." "That's not right." "I know that's why I haven't said a word." "But you spied..." "And you knew and you didn't tell me so?" "Okay, okay I got ya." Guess I won this round of who knows what. I started the car and Danny came running out of the house alone. "Here we go." Jon snickered now. Shawn was like... what?" "Wait Tommy, please. I need to talk to you. In private, please?" I shut the car off and got out. "Okay where?" "I don't care lets go in Billy's place." I turned to them. "Hang out guys be back shortly." "Yeah right..." was Jon's answer. I guess he knew this might take a bit now. We walked into Billy's and I shut the door. "SO... what's so urgent?" "Well I um, just wanted..." "Spit it out Dan!" "I threw the fucking bread at you okay!" "Yes I know. Why are you telling me now?" "You knew?" "Yes I did but I wanted you to tell me I wanted to see if you grew big balls and grew up too. You took your time. Took way too long to say so because they probably forced you into doing it so everyone could come to the mall right?" "YES. I know it was wrong, I'm sorry I threw the bread. Okay?" He turned to leave. "Not quite." "Huh?" "There is a matter of punishment." "Punishment? Oh come on your not serious." "Deadly serious or should I left it ride, forget about it and then maybe next time something worse happens? If you would have fessed up right there I would have been mad and it would have been over with already so?" He said nothing. "Well you want to tell them they aren't going or should I?" "NO! Okay what is my punishment?" "You have a choice. Either you stay home alone, well actually with Christian or you get punished." "How?" "Drop em!" I pointed to his pants. "No not that! Can't it be something else? Something not so private?" "Ok then stay home." "NO I want to go!!" "There isn't room here to argue Danny. I will respect your choice but you have to make one. Either take the real punishment or stay home all day and take the safer, painless wimpy way out." "You suck, I hate this it's not right and no one should have to be treated this way! What is under my clothes is private and personal and no one should be able to tell me what I have to do with it or `punish' it" "I know I am a prick but you threw the bread and now well... now I'm going to make sure you don't throw bread again. Like I said you don't have to have any of this happen you just tell me you're staying home and go now." He was stalling for time. "So what is it going to be?" He didn't move or say anything. "All right have it your way. I will go tell Joe and Billy they can come. You stay here with Christian." I turned and grabbed the door handle and pulled it open. "No wait, you win. Just please don't hurt me too much okay?" "I am not going to draw blood Danny just give you something to remember next time I ask for someone to STOP. I will try to be gentle." He dropped his draws and was standing there totally naked from the waist down. Nice hangers he had there, his balls were low and his cocklet was kind of semi erect. "Shirt off too and come here." He was totally naked as I sat down and he came by me. "Over my knees." "You're going to spank me?" "Yes that is part of it." "Then what??" he said with fear in his voice. I didn't answer I just pointed to my knees. He got on and over them. His ass was right in front of me. I grabbed underneath and felt a handful of cock and balls. "Owww, hey!" "Quiet! This is what you get so shut up or I will rip them off and then you can scream all you want!" I reached up and gave him a big crack right on his ass almost as hard as I could leaving an immediate red hand imprint. He jumped. Then I smacked again, and another and another. Four pretty hard smacks on his ass. He began to whimper. "No more please it hurts!" "Okay no more but you will do what next time?" "Behave sir!" Just for good measure I spread his butt cheeks. To make sure he knew I was serious not that the red ass treatment wasn't working well. "Noooo not my ass! Please? No? Don't hurt me there again!" He began to cry. I slid in a finger just to the edge of his ass hole. "Quiet." He stopped wining and got quiet. "You feel this?" "Yes sir." "Good! I reached under and took a handful of his now almost hard cock and his balls. Now if there is another problem with you I will not be so nice. I will push this finger in and I won't care what happens and I will do it in front of your brother!" "No anything but not that! PLEASE... he began to cry again. I let go of his balls and let him get up. I didn't think I could be so rotten but I did make my point very strictly. "Wipe your face and pull up your pants your not hurt your just scared." I just hoped I didn't go too far with him after all he is pretty young and I didn't want to scare him away from me but I wanted him to be sure he knew who was in charge. "I promise I will never do that again. I am sorry." "Danny... I am too I didn't want to be so nasty but if I didn't lay down some law then no one would listen. It wasn't that bad was it? Last handful you seemed to be hard, no?" "Yes. And no sir you didn't hurt me it stung but mostly you just really embarrassed me." "Well no one will ever find out unless you tell them I promise." "Me tell them? No fucking way. I don't need that kind of embarrassment!" "Okay let's go then we need to have some fun at the mall." I put my arm around him and he gave me half a hug. I guess I made my point and got away with it too. Damn that made me horny I am such a fucked up pervert! "Go tell them Dan you earned it. We will be in the car waiting for you guys." I got in and they both looked at me. "What did you do to him?" asked Shawn. "Shawn, remember our little talk about privacy?" "Yes sir." "Well that comes into play here. It's none of any ones business. Let's just say he won't throw anymore bread at anyone." "Okay I understand Tommy." "Thank you Shawn," I grabbed Jon's knee and gave it a soft squeeze and him a wink. "Love ya!" "You too." he said. Then all came out with big smiles on their faces and piled into the car. This time I left Jon up front and let them figure out how to all fit in back there. After some pushing and shoving it was set and two kids were in two laps. "It's a bit of a drive so get comfortable. Sorry I can't offer more room I guess I will have to find a big truck. I'll look today. We can look around town now!" Time for a better and bigger vehicle! YEY! I backed up and we took off. I guess a new drive would be first. "Okay everyone look for something bigger for me so we all fit nicer." We cruised for a few blocks and I saw a big van that didn't do anything for us and then I turned a corner and we saw this big type of truck with lots of room inside. It didn't have a name but the seating was plentiful and you had to almost climb up into it. I stopped the car and got out to look hoping the keys might be inside. It looked almost brand new and it was locked "DAMN IT! Now we have to search these houses." I walked up to the first one the front door was unlocked and bingo! Right inside the door was the truck key hanging on a nail by the door. "This looks like it." I grabbed it and ran over to the truck put it in the lock and crossed my fingers as I turned it. "YES! All doors popped. They were unlocked! Come on lets all get in!" I climbed into the driver's seat which was a chair that actually swiveled when I played with the knob. I think they are called captains seats. Two up front and two long seats in the back and a large area behind for storage. PERFECT! Now I just have to get used to something this huge. I only drove that car and nothing else. Good thing no one else is on the road. If they were I would probably drive them off it anyway. I started it up and it was a little loud. It sounded like a diesel. I checked and sure enough the gas gauge said diesel fuel only. And there was an automatic 4x4 button which I think means its four wheel drive too. What an awesome truck. Tons of room and probably a lot of balls under the hood! "Well now all we need is diesel to fill it. Isn't it awesome guys?" "Totally! These seats are great too!" Jon said. "We wouldn't know being stuck back here!" Billy cried. "YOU can have a chance up here I will give everyone a chance to be fair. Jon replied. Okay?" "Kewl. When?" "On the way back okay?" "Yeah I suppose." Billy barked. I shifted it into drive and pushed hard on the gas and we started to move. The tires sounded really rugged on the pavement as we sped up you could almost feel the road. "AWESOME FEEL! This is going to be fun to drive and we are really up like in a tractor truck." I turned on the parkway and we were off. The mall is about 30 minutes away so I stepped hard and we were flying down the empty parkway. The speedometer said 85. "Whoa Tommy... how fast you going?" "It says 85." You should slow down some, someone cried from the back seat. I wasn't sure who. "Why Jon said? There aren't any cars or anything in the way to crash into so we will be fine. It's plenty bright out and dry. We are in the huge truck who cares how fast we go!" "Yeah I added like we might get a ticket for speeding!" I laughed and so did a few of the guys. We were flying down the road. Occasionally you would see a car crashed off on the side of the road but nothing was in our way so I kept going 80 to 90 the whole way. We were there in about 20 minutes instead of the usual half hour when my father drove here. I pulled right up to the front door and parked. I laughed as we got out. "FREE PARKING!" "Yeah, said Jon, anywhere you want!" I couldn't wait to get inside and they couldn't either. We ran the few feet to the doors and then we were in. the music was still playing over the speakers like it always did. At least it wasn't totally dead inside. First thing I did was go to the ice cream stop and fill up a cup with vanilla ice cream my tongue has been dragging for it for weeks it was so good too. Shawn got chocolate and Jon got butter pecan. The others didn't come I guess they wanted to go somewhere else we can catch up with them later. "Jon lets go see if we can find some cell phones. Then it won't matter where we go." "Awesome idea." I didn't know if it would work if any would be activated but it was worth a try. We found a sprint store and went inside. All the new phones were dead but I looked around figuring that someone that worked there should have had a phone or something. Finally I found one behind the counter. Then Jon yelled over he found one. "Call me dude!" "What's the number?" "How would I know?" "Look in the features area sometimes they put that number in there." I looked and he did. "I GOT IT! It's 686-555-1400." "Okay I will call you then we will have each other number." His phone rang! "Kewl now we have cells and we won't ever separate! What's my number?" "Yeah until we don't pay the cell bill and they turn us off." "Jon that was so corny it wasn't even bad funny! What is my number?" "Well I liked it! Its 686-555-1987." "Whatever..." He's a nut! "I am going to finish my ice cream now okay? Should I call you to ask if it's okay?" "Enough Jon you're driving me nuts." I shook my head. "Come on Shawn let's see if there is a third phone for you." We looked and eventually we found not one but three more that worked. Now the guys can have them and eventually we can find one for everyone. We will have seven cell phones in the house oh joy! Now I felt like we were set so I started to walk the mall and left it up to Jon and Shawn what they wanted to do since they each had cells now. I told then as I left the phone store. Both looked at me like I was out of my mind and followed me out of the store. I walked or should I say we walked next door to a clothes store and I checked to see if there was anything I liked. "Why you going in a clothes store Tommy you don't like wearing clothes?" "Ha, ha. Very funny big boy maybe you should lose all your clothes now and walk the mall naked?" "I don't think so!" "WIMP!" "You're the wimp Tommy" "Right Jon! Okay then lets see I DARE you to walk naked through the mall!" "NO! IT ISNT GONNA HAPPEN!" "You have no balls Jon!" "Well I would bet you but I know you and you would be out of your clothes in a blink!" "You know it! Want to bet it Jon? You're just a chicken boy!!! There is no one here that hasn't seen me or you naked so why wouldn't I strip?" "Modest boy!" I ended it but he turned and headed out of the store leaving me with Shawn. "What's with him Tommy?" "I'm not sure cutie... Sometimes he gets all stupid on me. Just give him space and time he should be back. If not it's a long walk home. Or he could steal a car I guess and try to drive it home. It's not that tough to do just have to get used to it." "Kewl then I could..." "Not unless you want your behind fanned by me! Don't even go there!" "I was only kidding." "Kidding or not no cars for you not at nine!" "Ohhh-kay." "Come on lets go see what else there is." We came to a supermarket store and I saw the disability rides and got an idea. "Come with me Shawn I think you will like this." "What?" I pointed at them. "So?" "So we get on them and drive thru the mall till the batteries die?" "Ohhhhh! Kewl, awesome idea!" There were four of them all plugged in and hopefully fully charged. I got on one and turned the key and handle. It started to move. "Wait for me! Shawn yelled. He got on and did what I did and started to follow me. We exited the food store and were suddenly tooling up the walk way at a blazing 5 miles per hour I would guess. It was fun but if we wanted to see everything we had to slow down eventually. "We can shop after lets go find the others first and run them over!" Shawn laughed and we took off the way they went when we came in the mall. It took all of five minutes before we saw Billy and then Joey and Danny they were all in a candy store filling their mouths and so on. I beeped my weak horn at them. They started to laugh when they saw us come putting up towards them. "Nice wheels guys!" "Thanks Bill. Gotta get one of these. It will save you from getting tired later." "No thanks I want to walk." "Yeah for now but in a few hours you won't be saying that." He just shook his head. "I have something for you two. Sorry Dan I couldn't find enough so you will have to get yours later." I handed out the cell phones. "Kewl thanks." "No problem. Call if anything comes up." I gave them mine and Shawn's phone numbers. "Jon is around somewhere he got pissy and took off on his own. Here is his number." I told them it and then they had all three numbers and I already took theirs and programmed it in. We were off and on our way back to shop. We weren't gone for a minute and my cell was ringing. "Hello? Yeah, sure no problem if I see one I will call you. Okay bye." "Who was that?" "Billy. He wants to know if we find an electronic store he wants to get a few things. I told him we would call when we find one." "Oh okay lets go find one then." We took off. I floored it and was speeding at a whole five mph now and Shawn was right on my ass. He kept banging into me and laughing hysterically over it. "You having fun? Knock it off before I bang your head, you keep jarring my body when you hit and its starting to become annoying." He stopped not having to be told twice. We came upon a Radio Shack store and I called Billy and told him. He said they would be right over and I started to browse the store. It all looked good but there wasn't a lot we could do with most of it. Phones, stereos, police radios and a whole bunch more good stuff that was useless. Who would we call and what could we hear on the radios? I loaded up all the batteries I could into plastic bags and started to fill the basket of my cart. "Why you taking batteries?" "Incase the power goes out or we need them in flashlights or so on." "Oh, smart thinking." "Yup! Come on and help me pack these so it doesn't take too long." "Okay sure." We loaded all we could into bags and stuffed our baskets with them. By the time we were done the others had arrived and were browsing the store for whatever they wanted. Suddenly with their arms full they realized our idea of the carts sounded good. Billy and Joe went to get the other two driving machines and came back a few minutes later. "I see you got smart. I said to them. About time you dummy's!" I laughed. "Hey did anyone see Jon?" "Yeah I did a little while ago Tom; he was going toward the other end of the mall." "Oh okay Dan. Thanks." "Shawn please stay with them for now I am going to go find him. Even though this place is probably safe I don't want anyone alone. I'll be back shortly, call me if anything comes up." "Okay Tommy no problem." I took off on my motorized slow piece of shit heading in the direction Danny said. I wasn't planning on any problems since we hadn't seen anyone since Christian but I wasn't stupid either. I was packing my hand gun just in case. No one knows though and I hope I don't need it. I made my way through the mall slowly looking for him. I knew I could call and I was tired of looking now so I stopped and rang him. He didn't answer and I didn't think he could be that mad so I was beginning to get concerned. I called Billy and told them to start looking for Jon he wasn't answering his phone. They told me okay and they would start looking right away. "Billy make sure you all stay together now. I don't want anyone wondering off alone anymore just in case." "Incase what?" "Just incase it gets late." "Oh I thought you were hinting at something else." "No talk to you later." "Okay bye." I did mean incase there were others here. I didn't want to believe it but with Jon missing now I have to wonder if someone or others aren't here. I got a cold chill up my spine thinking we could have troubles in here but it's a huge place and maybe Jon just didn't have any signal where he was. I was now on the total opposite side of the mall and still no sign of him. I started yelling out his name. Other then the musak I heard nothing. I called his phone again. He picked up this time. "Hello? Jon where are you? Jon?" "You Jon boy is with me! Ha, Ha Ha Ha Ha! Come find him little boy I want more of you! Oh and hurry I am going to rape his sweet ass while I wait for you!" "WAIT!" He hung up the phone. Instant fear overcame me. I wanted to call them but I didn't want to panic them either and I didn't want to let Jon get hurt either but I didn't have a clue where he was. Damn! I knew we should have stayed together and I knew I should have thought more clearly! I called Billy. "Billy I am at the wish fountain. Get over here now with everyone. Don't panic them just tell them I called and want everyone together NOW BILLY! There is major trouble! Don't act weird on me just speed them up and tell them I want to meet everyone if they ask." "Okay Tommy I got ya. We are gonna come now." "Good keep the phone line open now too. I want to be able to hear you at all time!" "What's going on?" "Don't ask questions I don't want you panicking them!" "Okay sorry." "Just hurry!" I waited by the fountain and just as I was about to yell for them again I saw them come around the bend. "What's so urgent Tommy?" "Jon! Someone has him!" "WHAT? Said Billy? Someone else is here? WHAT are we going to do Tommy?" "First relax we are okay as a group. Now we just have to hurry and stick together and find Jon before this guy hurts him!" "I'm scared Tommy!" "I know Shawn just hang in there I am too!" "It's okay Shawn. Tommy won't let anything happen to us." Said Joey. "I know Joey but I am scared. Who knows what is happening to Jon." We hurried along and suddenly I we heard a scream. "FUCK! That sounds like Jon! Come on it was from this direction." We ran the way I thought the scream came from and again I heard a scream. I sure hope that fuck wasn't hurting my boy. I will kill him! "What are we gonna do when we find him Tommy? How will we fight him?" "With this Billy!" I pulled out my 45. "I didn't know what we could get into today so I didn't take any chances I packed my 45 today just in case. I was hoping I wouldn't need it but... another scream... Come on it sound like we are very close." We ran again. I stopped and hushed everyone so I could hear. I heard noises that sounded like someone was being attacked or fighting. I made the motion to everyone to be totally quiet now and stay behind me. I pulled out my gun and slowly turned a corner. It was dark but the noise was getting louder. I held the others back and crept up on where I heard the noise. Sure enough it was a big goon and he had Jon. Jon was stripped naked and tied up but not gagged. The guy appeared to be playing with him or something sexual. I saw red! "HEY ASS HOLE! LEAVE HIM ALONE!" The guy turned to me I gasped! He looked like he was half burnt and half alive. Totally gross! I guess he must have been half safe or something when the comet hit. He was totally disfigured and appeared to be somewhat deranged. He turned to look back at my naked sweetie and then he headed towards me. I pulled my gun and pointed it right at him. "Freeze scumbag! Don't make me kill you!" He came right at me. I backed up and warned him again. I tripped on something. It was Joey! I stumbled and rolled away. The creature who was actually some half baked guy grabbed Joey and picked him up. He screamed and the others did too when they saw his deformed face. Joey was in his clutches now and he couldn't get free. I didn't have a shot now either. He was trying to kiss Joey and he was holding him by the crotch and arm like he weighed nothing. Billy grabbed something and threw it at the thing. He turned and tried to see what it was and lost hold of the squirming Joey. Joey got loose and tore ass away. He went to grab Billy and he turned but fell over something that was knocked over during the scuffle before. He reached out to grab Billy as I took aim. I fired off a shot hitting him in his arm which was farthest away from anyone. He screamed out and turned to me. "Billy get up and get the fuck out of the way!" Billy scrambled to his feet and once he was clear I fired twice into the things face blowing his brains all over the wall next to him. He fell to the floor and I went to him and kicked him. He didn't move. "Bill take this! If he even moves a muscle pull the trigger. The rest of you wait outside away from the gun!" Billy grabbed the gun. Hands shaking he looked at me. "Its okay pal just relax, take a deep breath and calm down. I am going to get Jon but I need you to watch him just in case he is still alive. If he flinches shoot!" "Okay Tommy!" I ran back to Jon. He was tied up and pretty battered and bruised. I untied him and he got up grabbed me and hugged the daylights out of me and started bawling. He was totally naked and pretty shaken up. I went to reach for something to put around his body and he screamed no. "Please Tommy don't go anywhere just hold me. I am soooo scared! He hurt me so much!" I held on tight. "Its okay kid I am here relax. I held him tight. Did he do anything to you?" He didn't answer. I pulled him away from me and looked at him. His face was bloody and bruised somewhat. He was bleeding from his lip. "JON! Are you okay? Where did he hurt you did he have sex with you?" "He, he..." He couldn't bring himself to say. I pulled him away from me and checked his body. He was pretty beat up. That son of a bitch punched and beat on him pretty bad. I turned him around. He fought me. "No, no Tommy! No don't look back there!" I looked him in the face. "Calm down Jon! It's okay. Remember I love you! I know what you have and it's okay; let me see your backside." He whimpered no as I turned him around. FUCK! That animal! His ass was covered in blood. It ran down his butt cheeks and down his leg. "Ohhhh Jon. I am soooo sorry!" I reached for him and he suddenly didn't want to be touched. "It's okay Jon. It's me. Come here." "NO, NO! I am spoiled goods! Stay away! "JON! JON! Relax pal... come here. PLEASE!" I reached out again for him. He shook his head no as he backed away from me. I reached out and grabbed his arm. "Come on, it's okay. I said in a low voice. Come to me." I slowly pulled him to me. I got him. He put his arms around me and started crying! He was whaling loudly now. So loud that Joey came in to see what was wrong. He gasped as he saw me holding Jon. Jon had his back to him so he didn't know Joe was there. I waved him out and he turned with a shocked look and ran out. No one else came in so it was apparent he told them what he saw. After quite some time I finally got him calm and sat him down. "Stay here for a minute I am going to get something for you to wear." "NO, don't leave me!" "It will just be for a second I promise I will be right back!" I ran out and told Billy and Joey to find some towels and a long overcoat around Jon's size. Without saying a word they took off and ran to find what I asked for. Jon was still naked and I needed to get something on him and I think an overcoat will work just fine. Shawn, Danny Chris stayed behind. It was apparent that the guy was dead now so I took the gun back and put it in my belt. "You three say out of the store I don't want you near this guy or looking at his gross face. I don't need you three having nightmares its bad enough Jon is very beat up." They didn't say a word just backed out of the store and stayed close but out of view of the disgusting bastard. I quickly went back to Jon. I have some towels and a coat coming for you so we can get you out of here. "Okay Tommy. Please hurry I feel sick and cold and I want to go home." "It won't be long now I promise." Joey was back first with some towels. "Thanks Joe now go find something to put over that bastards face so we don't have to see him again." "Do I have to?" "Well I would appreciate it since I don't want Jon having to see him again and Billy isn't back yet. Just get a big cloth or something and throw it over what is left of the pricks face. I don't care what you use!" Reluctantly he went. I turned back to face Jon. "I know this won't be nice at all but I have to clean you up some." "I know Tommy. Just be careful okay. I am so sore back there." "Yeah I am sure I just want to get a lot of it off so you don't have to sit in it when I take you home. I won't go to far or deep. When we get home I will take a look in better light and see how bad it is." "Okay." I wet a towel and softly started to wipe around his butt and up his leg to get some of the blood off him. He jumped once when I got too close to his ass. "Sorry Jon." "Its okay I know you're just trying to help." "I got most of it and with the overcoat you should be fine as long as you can sit." "I think I can I will just have to take it slow." Just then Billy got back and he had just what we needed. I slipped it on Jon and buttoned the front up. "Come on lets get you out of here!" I walked him around the area that the dead scumbag was located in and out of the store. Needless to say I am pretty sure we won't be back in that place! Don't even know if they want to come back here again. We'll have to discuss it when it calms down. We all walked out of the mall together and I had my arm around Jon the whole way to support and steady him. We got to the truck and the others piled in the back and I helped seat him in the front seat as softly as possible. I looked at Shawn as he got in and he showed me the bags of batteries. Smart boy he remembered them at least. We were all settled as I started the truck and we took off from what was supposed to be an awesome day and wound up being a nightmare. We are going to have to come back without Jon or the young ones and get rid of that monsters body or else that mall won't be any good to us if it starts to reek of dead body. Tomorrow for sure, I just hope Billy and Joe don't mind. They are going to volunteer for this like it or not. The ride home was cautious as I really didn't speed much and in about 40 minutes we were back at our front door. Many hours early and quite upset. I know myself I was not only upset I was quite aggravated that we couldn't do what we wanted to. Hopefully we will be able to again soon. Chapter 14. Healing the mental wounds and trying to start fresh. As I got out so did the others and we all went to help Jon. His truck door was already opened but he was having trouble swinging his legs out. I grabbed him by the arm and we had an audience. "Guys please go inside that is where we are going. Danny here, take the key and open the door for everyone." "Sure Tommy." I focused back on Jon. He got a little farther but he was still in a lot of pain from his rape. "Jon let me help you damn it! Stop trying to be so brave! You're hurt and it's okay if you can't be strong now." I grabbed him gently by the chin. "Look. I said softly, you need to rest and heal and then you will be strong again. No one will ever do this to you again I won't let them I will kill them like I did that sick fuck!" I got closer and hugged him. He started to shake and cry again. "Its okay sweetie let it out. I totally understand! Let it all out!" "No you don't Tommy. He said through his tears. I left you because you were teasing me. We were just playing and I took off because you were busting me about getting naked. So I took off and what happens, this fucking half dead goon grabs me from behind and starts pounding on me. Raps me upside the head with his fist until I don't know which way is up and then punches me in the mouth. I was out of it and he scooped me up like I was a piece of paper and carries me into that room and starts tearing my clothes off. Then he starts to play with me all over Tommy! He was crying again but he waved me off he wanted to finish. He was grabbing my balls and pulling them and then my cock and then I screamed to tell him to stop and he punched me as hard as he could in the stomach. I couldn't breath Tommy I couldn't catch my breathe. He grabbed me and turned me over! Then he, he..." "It's okay Jon. I know... you don't have to say anymore!" "No I have to do this I have to get it out to you. You have to listen!" Tears were rolling down his cheeks. "I had the wind knocked out of me and he grabbed me and turned me over and grabbed my head and my hair Tommy. The he took his huge cock and rammed it up my ass as hard as he could. No sympathy, no care, nothing but sharp pain Tom. I screamed. He hit me again and shoved himself farther in me. I screamed again. I tried to fight him but he was just too big, too strong! He smacked me again and again, upside my head. Then he started to pump my ass Tommy! I screamed again and then out of no where I heard your voice. Thank God it was your voice. I almost passed out from the pain he was causing me!" More tears rolled down his face. I was crying now too. I took hold of his hand and squeezed it tightly. "Your okay now Jon. He is dead and you're with me. He can't hurt you again!" "Now I know why Shawn did what he did Tom. I understand why he kicked those guys in the nuts, why he wanted to burn the guys! It all came back to me when I saw you. All I did was see your face and then I thought to myself... wow this must have been what Shawn went through. I know why he sleeps with you. You rescued him! You rescued me. I will never forget that. You saved my life like you did Shawn's! It makes sense now why he cherishes you. I do too! You are my hero Tom. I love you so much." Tears were flowing out of both of our eyes now. I hugged him tightly as we both wept. I was kissing the top of his head and just holding on as tight as I could without hurting him. Finally we broke our embrace. "Come on let's get you inside and clean you up. I want to get that fuck's scum off you. I sure hope he didn't cum in you!" "No he didn't Tommy. You showed up just in time. He had to stop when you yelled and he put it away and turned to you so you wouldn't know I guess. You know what the worst part of all this is Tommy?" "No pal what is it?" "That I was saving anal for you! I wanted you to be the first one to have butt sex with me. That fuck ruined it and ruined me and I might never be able to have anal again thanks to him hurting me so much." Again he started crying. "I wanted it to be you! I WANTED IT TO BE SPECIAL!! No one but you! It was our special thing Tom it was supposed to be you and me and not him! He appeared hysterical now as he ranted and screamed about it. IT'S NOT FAIR! Not fair at all Tommy! I hate him, I hate him so much!" He was pounding his fists on my chest as i tried to comtrol him just a little. "I know Jon. I know!" I didn't know what else to say, what else to do. I just listened to him and held him or touched him any way I could. Finally he grew quiet. "Tommy I'm tired let's go in now." I helped him out of the truck and slowly he got his feet under him. I helped him walk towards the house and when we got to the door Shawn opened it for us. "Thanks cutie." "Welcome. How you feeling Jon?" "Like crap Shawn, like crap!" "Come on lets get you upstairs." "Wait a second, Shawn?" "Yeah Jon?" "Will you come up stairs in a little bit? I'll tell Tommy to send you up when we are done I want to talk to you but right now I need to clean up okay?" "Sure Jon." They all watched as I helped him up the steps. Slowly we made it to the top and we went right into the bathroom. I could only imagine what went through their heads. "Tommy I don't want you to leave me and I know this isn't going to be fun but I need you to clean me out no matter how much it hurts. I want that fucks scum off of me!" "Okay Jon, let me help you with the coat first." I reached around and pulled it off him one arm at a time and then threw it to the floor of the bathroom. "Okay now you want to get in the tub?" "Yeah that sounds good." He winced as he lifted his leg over the tub wall. I started the water. "Okay wet a cloth and then I am going to spread my cheeks and I want you to wipe me down." "Why don't I just hose you off and then what's left should be minimal and it won't hurt near as much?" "Yeah that sounds better I'm not thinking straight, I will hold my ass cheeks apart as you rinse off the old blood and stuff." I turned the water to shower mode and warmed it up so it wouldn't be cold on him and I told him I was ready. He was on all fours as I started at his upper back and let the water run down to get him used to it then I went lower. He spread himself and I slowly started to wash away the blood from his ass and leg. Most of it rinsed off but some was dry now and it would take a little work to clean it off. I told him and he said not to worry about it. He winced in pain as the jets of water hit him in the more sensitive areas. It pained me to hear him every time I hit the wrong spot. "We are pretty much done Jon the only thing left is the dry blood and then to dry off." "I'm too sore to worry about scrubbing blood off its not going to hurt me so I will leave it and clean it tomorrow. Also will you look closer tomorrow and tell me if you see any damage?" "Sure." "OHH Damn it!" "What?" "I have to take a dump. I don't know how I am going to do this." "I'll leave you be then I don't need to be here and you need some privacy. If anything happens yell and I will come running I will be out in the hall." "Okay Tommy thanks." I left the bathroom and Shawn was out waiting patiently in the hall. "How is he Tommy?" "Seems to be okay Shawnie but he has to take a dump now and I can't imagine the pain that will cause." "I can!" "Yeah I am sure you can. When he comes out he will need some support even from you since you went through this. I think he wants to talk to you privately." "I'll wait here then." "You're a good kid Shawn." I rubbed his head and turned to go in my room. I sat on my bed waiting for him to finish. It was quiet except for the occasional groans from the bathroom as I assumed it was very tough getting the job done in there. "TOMMY!" I got up and flew into the bathroom. "What?" "I am bleeding the toilet water is full of blood." I grabbed a hand towel and soaked it full of water. "Okay get up slowly and I will shove this between your cheeks to stop the bleeding. I can't think of anything else to do so I hope this works." He got up and turned and it was a big messy as I applied the towel to his butt. "Clinch your cheeks together and let's hope it stops." He stood there half bend over, naked from the waist down with half a towel stuck between his butt cheeks and the rest hanging down, After a minute I got down behind him and checked to see if I could tell if it stopped or slowed. I couldn't make out anything but the towel wasn't turning red so I assumed it wasn't getting any worse. "Did you at least get to go?" "Yeah the pushing it out is what I think started the massive bleeding." "Well it looks better but I can't tell without moving the towel. It's not turning red so it must be better. How does it feel?" "Like I got a hard cock shoved up my ass!" "Seriously Jon?" "It fucking stings and hurts like hell Tom!" "Okay, okay Jon relax and I will do what I can." "I know you will I am sorry but I am scared and I don't want this getting worse." "Me either Jon, me either. Okay here goes." I slowly pulled the towel from his butt and it appeared to be okay. I didn't see any bleeding but it was red and really looked bruised. Not that I was a rectum expert but I didn't think anything should look so red. "Ummm, it stopped and it looks... okay?" "You don't sound too convincing. What is really going on back there?" "Honestly it stopped but its so red Jon I don't know what to tell you. I'm not a butt expert but I would have to say it's not good. Maybe we should put some ice on it for a bit." "Ice? What are you nuts?" "No but these are." I grabbed his ever so gently. "HEY... Oh now that's not even close to funny!" "Then why are you laughing?" "I don't know, maybe because it was just so stupid." "Well, you have to admit that probably will never happen again!" "What?" "You asking me if I am nuts while your sac is practically hanging in my face." "I guess not." "Does it still sting a lot?" "Umm, yeah!" "Then let me grab the soft ice pack out of my freezer and put it in a towel and in there for a bit, it might not be the most comfortable thing you will feel back there but it might help you in a few ways." "Such as?" "Taking away the sting and swelling and probably making you feel better too and heal a little quicker. I also have some salve that I used on Shawn I want to dab a little of that on too afterwards." "You sure are doing enough with my ass now. You enjoying this?" "Yeah Jon I enjoy sticking my face in your ass and seeing you in pain over this. What a stupid question. How about you just go lay down and I will go do something less stressful!" I got up off my knees. "Pull up your pants I am done. Shawn is waiting to talk to you maybe after he is done you will think clearly again." I opened the bathroom door and stormed out patting Shawn on the back as I headed downstairs. I went to wash my hands and let him think about being an ass hole. I know he was hurt and I know it's a touchy situation but I am not a babysitter and he can take care of his own ass! I washed and dried my hands and went out. I decided I wanted to be alone for a while so I got in the truck and took off screeching the tires as I left. I looked in the rear view mirror and someone was at the front door as I drove up the block. I decided to go and get a cup of ice cream so I drove over to the local place and got out and went in to get my favorite flavor. I scooped a whole cup full of pistachio and grabbed a spoon and went back in the truck and ate it. It was soooo good too! After that I went to the gas station a few blocks away and filled the truck with diesel. It took 6 gallons of it and I put the hose back in the holder and got back in the truck. About thirty minutes or so passed I was calmer and I drove back home. I pulled up and was greeted at the truck by Shawn and Jon and Danny were at the front door. "What's up cutie?" "We all heard you take off. I was talking to Jon when you left. Where did you go?" "I needed to clear my head so I went to get some ice cream and gas up the truck." "Oh... why what happened?" "You could say I got a little tired of Jon and his complaining about stuff and I wanted a break." "But he is hurt Tommy and you are who we turn to when we need someone." "I know Shawn but this wasn't about him being hurt this was about him being obnoxious." "Ob- what?" "Stupid!" "Oh he was getting on your nerves?" "Exactly!" "Oh well while you were gone I had a talk with him about what happened and we discussed things like what happened to me and what happened to him." "How did it go?" "Okay I guess. It wasn't a thing I would want to talk about every day but at least we both got to talk about how it felt and how we are dealing with it." "That's good. Glad to hear it." "He wants to talk to you ya know. He told me he felt kinda bad he chased you off." "I am sure Shawn. Let me out and I will go see him okay?" He backed off the truck step and door and I opened it as soon as he was clear of it. I got out and he gave me his usual hug I got when we were apart for any period of time. I loved them so! And I walked up to the front door. Jon was standing in it so I couldn't pass or enter without him moving. I stopped in front of him. "I'm sorry." He stepped down to my level out of the house and gave me a big hug. "I didn't mean to get on you over this. I am just scared and worried about my butt and you were there. I vented at you and I am sorry I bit off your head. Forgive me?" "Sure, I whispered into his ear as we were hugging. Let's go inside. Don't want the neighbors seeing us like this!" He pulled away and gave me a baffled look. "Neighbors, what neigh... oh you were... I am such an ass sometimes!" Shawn was giggling. I turned to him and winked and he smiled. I pointed at Jon. "ASS!" He started laughing and looked at Jon and immediately stopped laughing. "Don't worry Shawn you can giggle if you want Jon won't bite you... much." I headed in and Shawn was behind me and Jon behind him. "Owww!" I turned and looked. "What was that?" "Jon smacked me upside the head." He said rubbing his head. "WHY?" "Oh come on it was soft and I was kidding. Because he laughed." I looked at Shawn. "You'll live!" Jon walked past him and he did the typical nine year old thing. Stuck his tongue out at Jon. Jon turned to look at him and he quickly pulled it back into his mouth not to get caught. I laughed right out loud. "What? Jon said. What did I miss?" I glanced over at Shawn and could see him begging me with his eyes not to say anything. "Nothing worth explaining just something that made me laugh!" "So where did you go in such a hurry?" "Out to clear my head and get some ice cream!" "You got ice cream! I heard from across the room. I turned it was Danny. Yes I did and it was good!" "I want ice cream." He said. "Yeah me too!" said Joey. "Yeah!" added Billy. "Come on we all want some now let's go to the store." Well what else did I have to do? "Can you sit? Sore ass?" "Funny! I guess so." "Go grab a pillow just incase you need padding even though I think you should go upstairs and rest." "I don't want rest I want ice cream!" "Oh all right! LET'S GO!" A collective cheer went up and I almost got trampled with the mad rush to the truck. "Geeze! If you guys kill me there will be no driver!" "Come on! Someone yelled I shut the door to the house and locked it and headed to the loaded truck. Loaded with bodies that is! We drove there and had ice cream without incident. It was a typical or what has become typical trip for us. "Since everyone is here I want to tell you all something." I pulled the truck over and faced the group. "This isn't earth shattering news it's just something I want to get off my chest. Over the past ten days since the comet took our families and most important things from us its hasn't been easy, there have been arguments, fears, attacks, sex and sexual situations and we almost lost one of us. I am sure I have missed something too but the fact remains that we are seven strong and with all things you get stronger and learn and hopefully grow with each incident. What I am getting at is that through all this we are still together. Now it appears being sixteen as I am, I have been chosen by all of you or most of you to lead this group. That is something I will do under my roof. I take responsibility for each of you while you live there or are in my truck. I am telling you all this because over the past ten days we have experienced some issues that have affected all of us and some that were private and haven't affected all of us. I am sure I am boring you with this little speech now but I want you to know that you are all free to go anytime you want. You all have homes and you have just as much rights to them as I do to mine. I make the rules under my roof and as long as you stay you must live with them like it or not. In exchange I have give protection and I hope love and some level of understanding to all of you one time or another." "Not to mention sex!" Everyone laughed. "Thanks so much Jon. And with that what I am getting at is this; its probably not going to get more difficult then it already is now but none of us can predict the future and since this is so true I expect that as long as I am running things I will be able to control this group and that we have a mutual agreement on what is right and wrong and that anyone has the right to ask or request a group meeting at anytime to resolve any issue that can't be agreed upon outside of my home. Simply put with me in my house it's my rules outside the house it's our rules. Danny got a taste of that for throwing bread. Jon and Shawn got a taste of it totally by accident and Billy and Joe have gotten a taste of it for thinking there were shall we say straight?" Again laughter but more subtle. "Guys what it all boils down to is who really knows what to expect next. I am sure with all the goons that were and are still out there anything can happen at any time and we all need to be on guard at all times just incase another mall incident happens. Therefore I recommend that when you go somewhere outside of our area you should have at least one other person with you. I will be the only one who travels alone and even then I will have a special guest with me just incase I run into someone questionable, my gun. I am sure we will again someday soon meet others and have them join us or go against us. There are people out there and the farther we travel the better chance we will gave to meet them. Any questions?" "I have one." "Sure Billy go ahead." "What do you think we will be facing as we grow up?" "Well a shortage of some foods. Certainly something's will eventually be gone like real milk, bread and anything dairy. Things that we can freeze and canned goods will stay longest. I think we should start a garden after this winter and try to read and start learning about things we can do for ourselves. We should continue to learn and I think that as much as this might suck but I think Shawn and Christian need to learn more about life and studying. We can all teach them and that should start soon. Just like I need to learn more but there isn't anyone to teach me what is left nor do I think I will need to learn anything else out of a school book at this time of my life. I do feel that all of you need some schooling still even though Billy, Joey and Jon are pretty much where they need to be in our existing culture. What I mean Chris, Shawn and Danny is that us four have learned more in our grades then you guys have and you three will need to be schooled more especially Shawn and Christian. We will take that one day at a time. We can and will survive as best as we can and if or when we deplete what we have here we will either have to travel or move on to a place that has stock for us to live on. Get used to veggies and all canned stuff, frozen foods and veggie whatever we can save now by freezing it like bread and maybe milk. Thankfully there are a few milk products out there that will last for us a little longer but eventually they will be gone and eating cereal will become a dry thing to do. Anyone else?" "Yeah Tommy I have a question." "Sure Joey go ahead." "How much leadership are you going to give us?" "What do you mean?" "How strict are you planning on being with us?" "Well, that's not an easy question. I would have to say as long as you're in my house very strict when needed. Sex will always be a voluntary issue and no one will be made to do anything if they don't want to. But punishments will be enforced by me if anything happens like the bread situation. Sorry to keep bringing it up Danny but it's the only example we have. If I say stop and we are as a group and you don't stop, expect to get some kind of crap over it. If you don't like it you can leave, if you don't want to be punished, behave. Punishments can be severe and embarrassing if you're not good. The upside is you don't have to stay or ever put up with any punishments. The bad side is if you leave your on your own. You come back your punishment will be waiting for you and more severe then when you left ask Billy if he wants to talk about it... so think hard before you leave, it might hurt and embarrass the crap out of you to come back. It's the only way we have to keep everyone in line now." "But what about you Tommy?" "I guess if I get out of hand too much then it's up to all of you to group together and either tell me or leave me alone and go out on your own. I don't expect that to happen since someone has to be responsible and right now I still take on that job. You're all entitled to tell me if you think I did something wrong and we can go from there." "But who punishes you?" "Right now no one does. That is why you chose me to be in charge Danny. I will try to do my best to do what is right every time I have to but I am not perfect as you know so I will make mistakes and probably hurt people from time to time. So I guess since I am running this group I can't be punished unless you all group together and just leave me. Then that will be my punishment living alone. I don't think that will ever happen thought Dan so we will worry about that if or when we get to it. Besides I know where you're coming from and you know what happened wasn't necessarily the proper punishment but it was what I chose. "Yeah I know alright and I learned my lesson!" "I know you did." They all looked at him after that. "What?" he said. "Danny I didn't tell anyone about your punishment or what happened to you... us talking about this is probably the first some of the guys heard. So they might not understand. Danny got punished already for throwing the bread at me and what the punishment was is private and will stay private unless he wants to tell you. It's his choice." Danny didn't say a word. But he did turn a little red in the face. "Okay then if there are no more questions we can go." "Where are we going?" asked Jon. "Food shopping. I want each of you to get some things you want and I want us to start eating better so no one gets sick. This means veggies; you can choose what you want and vitamins. I want everyone taking one a day's I don't feel like baby sitting any sick kids. Even though I don't quite know how we would get sick with there only being seven of us besides I want everyone to take vitamins to keep their strength up and for the things we will miss that used to be in our diets and are missing now since we are not eating all the proper foods now." I headed to the market the ride was very quiet, most unusual. Someone is always talking but this time no one had anything to say I guess our chat quieted everyone and made them think. I pulled into the lot and we parked right in front like we did at the mall. I looked at Jon. "You ready to do this?" "Sure. I might have a problem walking but I want to go in." "Okay let's go then." I asked because this place is like the mall in some ways, where he was attacked and I didn't want any bad memories for him. We entered and I grabbed a cart and walked over to the still semi fresh veggies and fruit. I grabbed as much as I could of what still looked good. This would make for some good eating while we still could enjoy it. Everyone partnered up and started strolling the market for what they wanted. I started walking and filling a basket with canned food and anything that looked like it would last. I passed some boxed milk and stopped to read the label. This looked like our best bet for having milk that would last for a while it even said that you could freeze it. I took it all and when we get home I will freeze it and then we might be able to make milk last for a year or two. "Shawn please go get another cart so we can fill it up with all of this." "Sure." He was back quickly and we moved on to the next area. We walked the store looking at everything that was there and collected three basketfuls of groceries. I never had to do this before so it was quite interesting to see what was in the store. I mean I went with my mom plenty of times but I never shopped like an adult just looked for the goodies I wanted to have in the house. We finished up and went to bag and leave. "Everyone have what they want?" I got nods and yes' from everyone. I noticed Jon was beginning to walk funny so I went over to him as we headed out of the store. "You okay?" "I don't know Tom. Its really sore and the pain is getting worse." "Okay. Hang on." "Shawn please push this cart out to the car and guys go with him I have to do something before we leave. We will be right out." "What are you going to do here?" He asked. "Check you. I want to see how bad you are." "Here? Oh come on Tommy. It can wait!" "The way you are walking and grimacing I don't think so. Come on lets go check in the bathroom. I mean if it's bad I can get something for it while we are here. They have a pharmacy and there has to be something I can use on you." "Oh come on Tommy this is embarrassing enough you have to look as my ass hole here?" I looked at him. "What's the difference? Its not like anyone is here and who cares? At least here I can decide to get something for it instead of getting home and having to drive all the way back here." "But..." "But nothing...come one lets see how bad this is." I grabbed him gently by the shoulder and started pushing him towards the rear of the store. "I don't like this one bit!" "Too bad! Now come on quit acting like a baby!" "I'm not acting like a baby! I just don't need anymore bad news back there!" I stopped and looked him in the eye. "I know you don't Jon I don't either. But we can't just forget about it and hope that it goes away! If it's bad we need to try something if it's ever going to heal properly! I don't particularly care to poke around in your butt either but I want to make sure my cutie is okay!" I smiled at him and he faked one back. "Now come on lets get this over with." We found the bathroom sign and went in. It was sorta dirty and stinking inside. I guess a typical store bathroom. "Okay drop em!" He looked at me. "You know I used to like it when you said that!" "Well drop em and turn around I will tug your balls real fast okay?" He gave me the finger and dropped his shorts to the floor. "I didn't mean it literally! The floor is a mess!" "Well you said drop em!" "Come on lets get this over with before the others get restless. Take down your underwear." He pulled them down and I immediately saw some blood in them. He did too and looked at me with a frightened expression. "Just relax; okay we don't know what it's from yet. Turn around." He turned to face the wall. "Okay sweetie, bend over and let's hope it's not too bad." I put my hand on his lower back for support as he reached for the ground with his hands. Immediately I saw dried blood between his butt cheeks. I reached out and as softly as I could with both hands spread his cheeks. "Ahhhhh THAT STINGS!" "Sorry but I have to look." Again I tried to see what I could. Again he complained about the pain. Finally I got his ass opened enough so I could see something. It was blue and red and swollen and looked a mess. I took my finger and slowly reached to touch. I could feel the heat from his injury and again he yelped in pain from me barely touching it. "Hang in there I need a wet towel to wipe away some of the dried blood." "That's gonna hurt more! Please be careful Tommy your killing me!" "I am being as careful as I can be but this isn't easy from my end either Jon." I grabbed some paper towels wet them in the sink and applied it slowly into the crack of his ass he didn't jump this time but I could hear him make noises as I pushed farther in. As difficult as I was I tried my best to dab around the area and wipe away some blood. "How does it look?" "It's swollen and there is some dried blood. I told you to rest and not come with us. But your just as stubborn as I am so what can I say. Now you will suffer as I try to do this for you. A shower would really work best but we don't have that here." I grabbed the salve that I had from the pharmacy shelf and put some on my finger. "I don't know how this is going to feel Jon but I am going to put some of this on you now." "Okay Tommy just be easy please..." He jumped as I inserted my finger with the salve on it. "Ahhhhh, that feels cold, but good." I rubbed all around the outside and slowly stuck my finger in him a little to apply some of the medicine all over. I was done and I went to the sink to wash up. He was getting dressed again. Then he came over to me as I was drying my hands. "Thanks so much for taking care of me." He gave me a hung and I returned the affection with a kiss as we separated from the hug. "I would do anything for you, you know that! But you need to take it easy now. You need to heal." "I know, I know..." "No you don't know! I yelled at him. If this gets worse I don't know what to do for you sweetie! I am not a doctor and I don't want to lose you because you bled to death or something!" I grabbed him and held him tightly to me. "You have to go home and lie down and just rest for a while. No questions asked here Jon! I need you healthy again!" "Okay Tommy, okay. As soon as we get home I will." He gave me a kiss on my neck and we broke the embrace and headed out of the bathroom. I put the medicine away and we slowly headed to the car. The guys were waiting patiently at the front of the store by the exit for us. "I know that was important Tommy but everything is starting to melt from waiting for you guys from whatever you just did." "Go grab a cart and get some ice all of you. Then we will pack it in ice in the back of the truck and drive home okay?" They went and loaded up a couple of big bags of ice and the melting seemed to be under control. "Okay let's hurry home now." We all got in and I took off and sped home. We made it in a matter of minutes and started to unpack the truck. "Just dump the ice in the street and let's get stuff in the freezer. As soon as we can I need to go find us a few big freezers and then we can store as much as we need to. Jon I want you to go to bed and relax. Shawn I want you to stay with Jon. You have the phone if you need me call me. I am going back to the store with the others and get all the meat so we can freeze it before it all expires between what we take and what we can freeze there we will be fine. We will be back in an hour or so since we are going to store whatever we can and grab the rest for here. Any questions?" Everyone shook their heads no and we started to put what we had away. Shawn helped Jon up to bed and I followed as soon as everything was under control in the kitchen. "Just make it all fit as best as you can and if we run out of room take anything extra next door to your house Billy and fill up your freezer." "Okay got ya." "There is another full freezer downstairs when this one is full too, hopefully we can get another one and put it in the garage tomorrow." They all were working on putting away the food and I went up to see how Shawn and Jon were. Jon was already in bed and Shawn was sitting next to him when I walked into his room. "Shawn will you please get me a wet rag?" "Sure." He got up and went to get one. I sat in his place and asked Jon how he felt. "It hurts like a motherfucker! I so wish I didn't leave your side and go on my own today Tommy. I feel so foolish. Now I have to pay with this pain that might take a week or more to heal." "If we are lucky and you don't bleed anymore. Look when Shawn comes back I want to wash that area out once more before I go and then Shawn is going to stay with you while I go get more meat." "Why don't you take Shawn with you since you two get along well and leave me Danny? Also do you really have to wash me there again? Its so embarrassing to have someone was my ass hole." "I'll ask Danny and as for your ass what can I say? I know it's embarrassing but you can't do it and it needs to stay clean to get better. You want to do it? You can't even see it you can just feel the pain. Don't worry about embarrassment its me not someone who doesn't care. I am sure you would do the same for me in the same situation." "You know I would but it's still weird!" "I am sure it is. Here comes Shawn let me do this and then we will go get more meat." "Shawn would you rather stay with Jon or come with me?" "Are you kidding? Go with you. He looked at Jon, sorry Jon nothing personal." Jon smiled at him. "Okay go get Danny and ask him to come here in a minute. Right now I have to do something so give us a minute and then send him up please." "Sure no problem." He got up and headed out of the room. I got up and locked the door behind him. I turned back and looked at Jon. Okay you know what you have to do, as I waved the cloth at him. Reluctantly he pulled back the covers and pulled off his underwear. I walked over to his bedside and took his legs and started to lift them. "Wait, what are you doing?" I was going to clean you. "No not that way, let me turn over that's the way babies get cleaned..." His voice trailed off as he rolled over and stuck his butt out. I almost laughed but I knew I would have started a riot if I did. "Be gentle!" he demanded. I just looked at him and stuck my tongue out and moved towards his wound. "You going to help me or should I do it by myself?" He reached around with both hands as he buried his head into the pillow. Slowly he pulled apart his cheeks exposing his cherry red hole to me. There didn't appear to be any blood this time but there was no doubt that it was a severe wound or tear. I took the wet cloth and applied it softly and started to dab it not to cause any more pain to my lover. I did as good a job as I could and didn't hear any complaints this time. It appeared the only problem now was soreness. I dropped the cloth and grabbed some salve and put some on my finger. As I applied it to the area he jumped slightly and let out some comment that was muffled by the pillow but I finished rubbing it over the wounded area. "Okay I am done. What did you say?" "I said wow that's cold!" "Well it sounded like you said owww that hurts into the pillow." "It stung but didn't really hurt. How's it looking?" "I won't lie and tell you fine. Its cherry red and swollen but at least this time there wasn't any blood when I cleaned it." "Good it feels a little better but now I have bad news." "What could possibly be wrong now?" "Ummm, I have to take a dump?" "Yeah that's bad news alright." There was a knock at the door and we heard Danny's voice. I walked over as he got back under the covers after pulling back up his underwear. "Come on in Dan. I was wondering if you would stay with Jon when we go for more meat." "Sure but why does he need someone to stay with him?" "Just to be safe after his attack you dummy I don't want him bleeding to death or anything while we are gone if he is alone." Jon started to say something but stopped. "Sure I don't care if I go. There's always next time. And I don't think Chris wants to go out again he seems a little cranky right now. He just went to lie down." "Okay then its set we are going and you watch Jon." "Wait Tommy, I want to go before you leave since I have to." "Okay I will be downstairs rounding up the troops then yell if you need me. Danny you don't have to sit with him just keep your ears open for trouble." I told him that after Jon walked out of the room in a low tone just so I don't get Jon all pissy. "If you have any problems call me on my cell right away we will only be at the market about five minutes away and then we might hit the butcher and see if he has anything over on 6th street. We shouldn't be more then an hour. I am going to check Jon go down stairs for now please." "Sure Tommy, yell if you need me." I knocked on the bathroom door as I did I heard him grunt and then groan. "Jon you okay?" No comment. "Jon I am coming in." I opened the door slowly and he was on the bowl and I guessed trying to do his duty. I looked at him through the slightly ajar door. "You okay can I come in?" "No I am not okay and I don't care if you come in. my ass is on fire and it hurts like anything." I felt bad for him but I didn't know what to do. "Did you go?" "Not yet, I am trying to but when I push it kills me. I have to really bad too, I know its there but it's hard to get it out of me." "Okay I will give you some privacy and wait outside." I shut the door as I heard him grunt again which was followed by another loud moan. Poor guy it must hurt like anything. I heard him let out a muffled yell and I heard what I thought was a splash. I hoped that was what he wanted and he was done. I waited just to give him privacy. Again he grunted. Not a really good sign. I wasn't sure how close he was to finishing but I had a feeling there was more. I didn't hear any more noise for a bit and then he screamed my name. I rushed in. "What? What's wrong?" "I, I can't finish and I have... I am not done. It hurts so much and there is already blood in the water Tommy. I don't know what to do." "You have more to go?" "Yeah it feels like it but I am afraid to push anymore. Between the pain and blood I don't want to bleed anymore." "I don't know what to tell you Jon you have to finish or you will have problems in bed. I am going to have Danny get some ice and we are going to have to ice you for a bit then I will go to the store." "Awww anything but that Tom. Can't you think of another idea?" "No but if you have one I am listening." He said nothing more and with me standing there gave another push from what I guessed by his facial expression. He appeared to almost be crying as he tried to finish his business. "I think I almost have it Tom. It just hurt so much." I just stood there and tried not to interfere with him. I felt really out of place waiting for him to finish up. I opened the door and yelled down to Danny. "Dan go into the freezer and grab a gel ice pack and wrap it in a few paper towels for me and bring it up." "Okay." He yelled back to me from downstairs. I turned back to Jon and he looked pale and seemed to be a little wobbly on the bowl. "Jon are you okay?" He looked at me and sweat was running down his face. "I don't feel good Tommy. I feel dizzy." I went over to him and steadied him with one hand and felt his head with the other. Fuck! He has a fever! I hope that animal didn't have any diseases! "Jon? I shook him slightly. Jon say something to me!" "Tommy I feel sick. My butt feels like its on fire and I can't finish going." "Lean forward Tommy." He did so without question. The water was red and I was scared for his life. "Sit still for a second." I ran to the door. "Danny I need that ice now! Make it two packs!" I left the door open some as I went back to him I held him tight as he sat on the bowl. The door opened some and Danny peaked in. "Come in and leave them here Danny. He is really sick and I am going to need both of them. Wait outside incase I need your help getting him back to bed. I am going to try to get him cleaned up and back into bed but he almost passed out a minute ago so just hang loose and get someone to wait with you incase I need help." "Right!" He turned and rushed out of the bathroom and pulled the door behind him so it was just open an inch. I heard the commotion outside but I wasn't sure who he was calling. I heard lots of footsteps and then Jon moaned and I focused back on him. "What is it pal?" I got down on my knees next to him so I could look into his face. "I don't feel well Tommy. I feel sick, dizzy and hot." "Don't worry sweetie I will take care of you." He squeaked out thanks as he passed out and fell onto me. I sat up and steadied him back on the bowl. "Jon, Jon!" I gently slapped his face and his eyes opened some. "Damn I thought you passed out." "I am ready to." "Can you hang on so I can clean you and get you back to your bed? Your done now even if your not." "Ill try but I am really weak." I leaned him forward and with a wet rag I wiped him off as best I could. He didn't say anything this time whether it hurt or not. "Tommy... I am gonna pass out." "I got you Jon don't worry about it I will get you back to bed." "Tommy!" He raised his voice. "Yeah, what is it?" He was whispering now. "Please Tom... Don't let me... don't let me die!" He managed to get out before he passed out and fell into my arms. I felt horrified and scared to death with his words. "I NEED HELP IN HERE!" Both Danny and Joey rushed in as I looked up and they grabbed for him as I tried to steady his limp body on the bowl. "Hold him up guys. I am going to lift him and then we can carry him to bed. He is passed out." The three of us lifted his half naked body and I took one side and Danny the other as we attempted to drag him back to his bed. It wasn't working. "Joey take my spot I am going to have you lay him over my back and I will carry him in myself." "Can you lift him alone?" he said. "Watch me! Okay now let him fall forward on my shoulder and then stand back. Danny guide him incase I can't hold him up. Danny pull his underwear off his legs and let it be on the floor so it doesn't get caught when I carry him." I took him as they laid him across my shoulder and I put my arms around his lower back and hoisted him up. I never knew I was that strong but I never had someone I cared so much about this hurt. As they scrambled out of the way I carefully carried him out of the bathroom. He was still bleeding some as I yelled for someone to get me a few towels. I had him now as Joey came over with a few towels. "Lay them on the bed so we don't soil it. Quickly please!" He did and backed off. I sat him and then laid him down so his still slightly bleeding butt was on the towels. "Danny, help me turn him over." Together we flipped his lifeless body over and I took an ice pack from Joey who was now holding them. I wrapped the ice pack in a wash cloth and spread his cheeks and shoved it in as far as I could to try to slow the bleeding from his swollen rectum. They all backed off as I did this and a collective gasp was heard as they saw the blood still coming from him. I had blood all over my hands as I turned to look at them. "Guys I have to stop this bleeding or he is going to die! Someone please go get me some more towels or a few cloths so I can keep doing this with clean cloths. Danny hand me the other ice pack and take this bloody one and rinse it off." He took it without hesitating and ran to the bathroom. I took the fresh pack and wrapped it and reapplied pressure to his butt. It appeared to be slowing with the ice on it. This one wasn't nearly as blood as the other was. As I finally got my senses back I notice everyone was there including Christian. Danny was now back with the other ice pack wrapped in a fresh cloth. "Thanks Dan now take your brother out he shouldn't be in here." "Come on Chris lets go outside." He took his brother by the hand and led him out. "Guys I appreciate your help but under these circumstances would you all go outside now I am sure you don't need to stare at Jon's naked ass any more. I think it's under control and I can handle it with Danny's help." No one said a word the just all filed out of the room and Danny came back in to see if I needed anymore help. "What can I do now?" "Nothing Danny nothing! I am just hoping I can stop the bleeding and then get his temperature down. He has a bad fever too and I am really scared for him." I took the ice off and checked him again. It appeared he stopped bleeding now and I took a clean towel and check for more blood as I handed the soiled one to Danny and he took it out to the bathroom like before. He had all but stopped now so I left a damp rag in there and turned him over. I struggled some but he flopped over with some pushing and I straightened him out as best as I could. Even in this state he was still my cutie and he still looked like an angel just a passed out angel. I leaned over and kissed his warm forehead. He looked so vulnerable in this state and I felt so bad seeing him this way. I tucked his nakedness under the covers as I made sure he was okay down there. I covered him up and placed an ice pack in his forehead now and sat with him holding his hand. About thirty to forty-five minutes passed as I sat vigil at his side watching him and hoping he would wake sometime soon. Danny came in a few times and asked but I had nothing to tell him. Since no one else was bothering me I assumed he was keeping them all informed with the latest information each time. I pulled the covers down some to his belly button and started to rub his belly and chest under his shirt. Finally after a few minutes of this he stirred and seemed to wake. "Jon? JON? Can you hear me?" "Yes, stop yelling my ears are fine." I smiled at him. "You had me so worried. How are you feeling?" "Like shit!" "Seriously!" "I am tired and thirsty and hot and cold all at once. But your rubbing my belly and chest really felt good." He said as I stopped to focus on him. I smiled at him and got up to give him a peck on the cheek. Then I just sat back down next to him as he closed his eyes again. He seemed to fall back asleep as I took the ice off and put on a wet cool cloth now. "Thanks." He said in a low tone as I grabbed his hand and gave it a squeeze. He squeezed back and then fell back to sleep as I continued to rub him and let him know I was there. After a few minutes he appeared to drift back off and I stopped and let him sleep. I finally got up and went to wash up and get what was left of his blood off me. I motioned to Danny and he went in and sat by his side while I was gone. As I was washing it finally hit me what happened and I started to cry. I finished up and cleaned the bathroom as best as I could and washed once more and cleaned my face so no one would know and headed back to the room to check on him. "Did he move at all Dan?" "Nope just sleeping like a baby now." "Good. He as much as blinks wrong and you come get me I am going to go have a bite to eat." "Okay Tommy I am sure he is fine go eat you look beat!" I went down and was bombarded with a thousand questions from all of them. Finally I hushed them and filled them in on how he was. I told them what was going on as best as I could and then I went to eat. Shawn came over and gave me a hug when I got in the kitchen and I leaned over and gave him a kiss on the forehead as a thank you. "He's strong Tommy he will be okay, I just know it." "I hope so Shawn he lost a lot of blood and he seems to be a lot worse then you were. That guy really ripped into him." "Yeah well if anyone knows how it feels I sure do." "I know sweetie, I know what you mean!" I popped in some toast and poured a glass of milk and sat down to try and get something in my belly. It was now dark outside the last few hours flew by and any thoughts of going for meat will have to wait till tomorrow. We were well set anyway I just wanted to get whatever we could here so we didn't have to worry about some types of food for a while. We have plenty of room between my house and Billy's next door; especially with the big freezer I already have downstairs, food won't be a problem for now. I ate with Shawn still sitting and watching my every move. I didn't hear anything from Danny so I assumed it was okay upstairs. I cleaned up and headed back to see Jon with Shawn still by my side. At least I don't feel alone. "Hey Dan thanks for covering how is he?" "He was quiet and turned once, otherwise not a peep." "Well thanks for watching him for me I am sure he appreciates it as well as I do. I think maybe tomorrow if he feels better I am going to go get you guys some TV's and we will get some X-Box and other games at the mall." "Your gonna go back to the mall?" "Sure why not. What happened to Jon was a mistake by a fiendish person who was half baked with the comet disease. I don't think anyone else will be there or like that. Beside I want to dump that body out of there and I am going I need help. So I will be taking someone with me or a few of you guys." "Not me! I don't want to go back in that mall anytime soon." "Okay Dan that's up to you when we go you can stay here with anyone else that doesn't feel safe I will take whoever is interested in still shopping that huge mall. I know I want to find some goodies in there. You think about it maybe you will change your mind. But for now go find something to do I am going to sit with my boy for the night." He got up and walked out and Shawn pulled up a chair and sat next to me. He didn't say anything for a change and that surprised me but I assume he didn't want to disturb Jon. I took Jon's hand even though I knew it would bother Shawn on some level and I moved closer to his bed and put my head down on the edge of the bed. I wasn't paying much attention to Shawn but I heard his chair move closer to me and the next thing I knew he was draping his arm over my back as best as he could. In one way it was sweet but it was also haunting knowing this kid suddenly had a problem leaving me alone. I must have dozed off because I awoke a while later and Shawn was gone and Jon was still sleeping with his hand in mine now. So he must have woke and saw me and grabbed my hand at some time. I put it back and got up to take a leak and see where Shawn was. The clock said 1am and the lights were out downstairs. I assumed all were in bed. I went to mine and sure enough Shawn was under the covers on his side of the bed. I went over and kissed him on the cheek and tucked him in making sure he was safe and the night light was on. I turned to leave and I heard him whisper thanks as I shut the door some, I went to take my leak and went back in to be by Jon's side for a bit longer. I took the wash cloth off his head and checked with my lips for a fever like my mom used to do to me and he felt much cooler now so I left the cloth off and sat back down and took hold of his hand again. I think he will be okay since the fever broke. I was just about to doze off when the bugger started to move some. I took my free hand and tucked it under his shirt and started to rub his belly again. Eventually he woke and turned to me and smiled. "Hi sweetie, how you feeling?" "Weak but a lot better. I don't feel so hot anymore." "I know your fever broke. Want some water?" "Juice please?" "Sure I'll go get you a glass right now." I got up and gave him a peck on the lips before I left and he smiled at me. I felt better when I saw that smile. I hurried down and filled a glass and came back up. He was trying to sit up but as soon as he applied any pressure to his butt area he winced in pain. "I guess you're not going anywhere anytime soon." I said as I helped him sit up and put a bunch of pillows behind him to lean on. "Guess not. But what do I do when I have to pee or God forbid have to take another dump?" "Well you can pee in a bucket and if you have to crap I will help you into the bathroom and we will hope you don't bleed a lot again." I handed him the juice and he drank it all down. "Did I make a mess?" "Sorta. I cleaned it and you up as best as I could. Your gonna need a shower thought tomorrow." "Yeah I know I don't even want to know how bad I smell down there." I got up and stuck my nose there just to bust his balls. "Like perfume, just like sweet perfume." "Very funny. But honest Tommy how bad was it?" "You passed out on the bowl and I cleaned you as much as I could and then I got some help and I carried you to bed and iced your butt to stop the bleeding. There is still a wash cloth in there now." "I thought I felt something weird." "Yeah I left it there. You lost a lot of blood in the toilet. That's probably why you passed out." "You carried me in here?" "Yeah buck naked with your blood running down on me and everything and it didn't bother me one bit because I love you so much." As I said that I gave his hand a squeeze. "Yeah Tommy I see that now. Who else would have taken so good care of me other then my mom in the same situation? You probably saved my life. Even my butt doesn't hurt as much now." "Good lets take out that cloth then and see if it's dry," "Okay." "I'm afraid this time its going to have to be baby style like it or not. I don't want you moving too much till morning. Okay?" "Yeah, no arguments from me. Not now." I pulled the covers back and he realized he was still naked and he looked at me. "What? I told you already you were naked, what's the big deal." "You mean you carried me butt naked to here with blood really pouring out of my ass and everyone watching?" "Well it wasn't pouring out but yeah we had an audience and I had Danny and Joey help me or I couldn't have made it. What's wrong you have been naked before." "Yes but I was there. This time I don't know a thing." "Well I took care of you and no one really saw anything but your ass." "They saw me? Bleed?" "Yes, sadly we had an audience before I chased them out. I'm sorry but I wasn't paying attention to who was watching I was just trying to stop you from bleeding to death. Remember the last thing you said to me in the bathroom?" He thought for a bit. "Don't let me die?" "Something like that, so I wasn't paying much attention to who was looking at your cute ass just trying to stop the bleeding." "Ugggg, then they all saw you shoving stuff up my ass?" "Well If you put it that way yes they did but what do you care you didn't see it." "That's just so embarrassing though." "Jonny you were bleeding it wasn't a show every kid in this house was worried senseless about you and watching to make sure you were okay. After things calmed I shooed them all away before I flipped you over. No one saw your cock but me. Not that it should matter after our day one performance." "I know but like I said I was awake then, I had a choice. This time it was..." "It was me here protecting you and nothing more Jon. Stop worrying so much. You will get over the embarrassment and you're alive!" "Yeah I guess." I reached over and gave him a big hug and a kiss on his neck. "I love you and I wasn't about to lose you not to this or anything! Don't you ever forget that!" He hugged me back nice and strong. "Now let me get this done for you." He pulled the covers off and I took his legs and lifted them up over his head and with the other hand gently pulled the cloth out. Other then a little blood it was mostly dry. A good sign. "How's it look?" "Here see for yourself." As I lowered his legs I handed him the cloth. "Well that's not too bad huh." "Nope not considering how much you probably lost in the bowl." "What am I gonna do next time I have to crap Tommy?" "We will deal with that when you have to go. Just don't tell me you have to now." "No, no I don't. I am just scared of when I do." "I know you are but let's take it slow okay?" "Okay." "I am going to go to bed now unless you want me to stay a little longer," "No its ok Tom I can't thank you enough for this don't waste the night on a chair. You don't have to baby sit me anymore tonight." "Waste? Baby sit? Jonathan Thomas McAlister I was not wasting nor babysitting you for one second! I was making sure you were ALIVE!" He got this blank look on his face. I never used the full name treatment on him before in his life. I think I scared him. "Don't you ever degrade yourself like that! Anytime I spend with you is not babysitting or a WASTE and even with you being out cold I enjoyed it because it was WITH YOU! You can't tell me you don't remember any of it. I rubbed your chest I held your hand and I prayed you were okay!" He still sat there stunned. Even sick he was getting yelled at by me. "I'm going to bed now. You get some rest and if you need me yell I will be right in. my door will be open and your right next door to me. Good night love." I grabbed his arm as I got up and gave him a gentle squeeze and let go to walk away. "WAIT!" I took two steps back from where I was. "Thanks. He said as a tear rolled down his cheek. Thanks for saving my life. I owe you so much and I know you weren't babysitting you were taking care of me and I know you weren't wasting your time, you were worrying about me. This is new for me. Other then mom and sometimes my dad no one has ever cared so much for me. But they are gone and now I have you." He squeezed my arm and pulled me to him. When I got close he took my arm and tugged me closer and gave me a big kiss on the lips. We hugged and held it for a while. He was crying the whole time because I could taste the tears as they rolled past my lips. I just held him tight and eventually we broke our lip lock and I looked into his awesome cute face and wiped away his tears. "I know you love me as much as I do you or I hope so but don't you ever put yourself down like that. You are so important to me and if I lost you tonight I don't know if I would have wanted to go on. Other then Shawn I don't have anyone else in this world now and you are part of what keeps me alive! Don't ever forget that!" As I said that I tweaked his nose and he smiled about as wide as I ever saw him smile in my life. "I know your only 13 and I am only 16 but I don't give a fuck! We are all we have and that is enough for now! Get some rest I want to check you in the morning and see if you can walk. It's not going to be pretty since I am sure you will have to crap eventually and I don't want to worry about that now. The more you rest the better you will heal. Yell if you want me I will be right on the other side of that wall. Night, night." "Thomas?" "Yeah." "I don't think there is anyone else I love as much as I do you and I am glad you care so much. It gives me reason to want to wake and get better tomorrow. Thanks for your words. I am sure I love you as much as you do me. I feel it inside. Night." I smiled back at him and headed out turning out the light as I left and leaving the door open so I could hear him. I went back in briefly just to leave him a bucket incase he had to pee. I went back in to my room and sat on the edge of the bed and started to get undressed. I was so happy tears ran down my face. I wiped them off stripped down and got under the covers next to the second best thing I have in this world another cutie named Shawn, I turned to him gave him a kiss good night then I turned out the light and lay down. He moved up close to me like he always seems to do and before I knew it I was in never, never land. Chapter 15. Onward we go... to the next problem. I must have been exhausted because Shawn woke me up for a change. I rolled over and he was sitting up and smiling at me. I looked past him at the clock and it said 8:30. When I started to focus I heard the usual morning ruckus downstairs. Someone was up for sure but for a change it wasn't me. "Morning Shawnie. How's it going?" "Good, how are you? I was asleep last night for a bit before you came in bed. How was Jon?" Jon! I slept so good I almost forgot. "He was better but now I have to check him." I got up totally naked out of bed and flew to get my boxers out of the draw as Shawn laughed. "Nice ass!" I turned to him. "Funny boy! I'll deal with you after I check Jon. Hold that thought for now." I raced into his room and he was lying there awake. "How ya feeling love?" "Well it's about time you got up. I feel better. Slept good but I have been awake since 7. I have also had three visitors," "Nice who was in?" "Danny poked his head in about 7:30 and shortly after Joey and Billy both came in." "I see you used the bucket. I'm glad you didn't try to get up." "Yeah I used it a few times and I am glad I didn't have to crap too. Especially since you probably slept so well you wouldn't have heard me anyway." "Did you yell for me?" "No, but..." "But nothing... no guessing if you didn't have to try." He smiled and waved me over. I got closer. He grabbed my arm and pulled me to him and gave me a big kiss on the lips. "Ahhhhh, young boy lips! Gotta love it! What's that for?" "Because I remember everything you said last night to me and I wanted to!" "Thanks. I kissed him again. Want to try to get up?" "Yes very much. You think it will be okay?" "As long as you're not feeling dizzy I don't see why not. Swing your legs out and put them on the floor then get up slowly and we will see how you feel if your fine you can either wait here and I will get you a pair of boxers or you can walk naked to your dresser and get then yourself." He sat up and didn't make too much of a face and turned to place his feet on the floor. Then he stood and I got a treat. "Nice! I grabbed a handful of sweetness and gave a grope." "Hey! How am I supposed to concentrate on walking when you're testing my balls for bounciness?" "Sorry they were begging to be felt. After all they are hanging right here." I took another handful as I said that. "Will you stop that before I get a hard on!" I smiled. "What would be bad about that?" All flustered he just griped "Nothing!" He took a step and another and seemed fine. "Good go get your boxers I want to watch you walk." "I bet, all you want is to see my buns." I smiled evilly at him. "Why they are mine and I had PLENTY of them last night, just too bad it wasn't under good conditions." He flipped me off and walked over to his dresser took out a pair of boxers and pulled them on. "Sorry, shows over." Then he came back over to me. "Not if I tug them down!" As I grabbed them by the bottom and gave a little tug. "Horny today are we?" "What if I am Jon? After all I could have had my way with you all night and I was good." I smiled again as he looked queerly at me. "You mean all that time you didn't do one thing to me?" "Nope other then stop your ass from bleeding I totally respected you. Otherwise I would have felt really rotten for taking advantage of you. Besides I wasn't actually thinking sex last night I was worried about your health." I got a big hug for that. I didn't want to let go either. He felt so good. "So want to try a shower?" "Yeah after some breakfast." "Okay, oh by the way I am going back to the mall today and get rid of that bastard that did this too you." "NO! You can't!" "Why not?" "Well if you must know I want to spend some time with that bastard like Shawn did first. I have a few things I owe him!" "Well okay I guess but your not thinking about that today are you?" "I'll let you decide that Doctor Tom. You tell me if I can go out and play, okay?" "Sure. Let me watch you go downstairs and check you again after breakfast. I want to make sure you're not bleeding and you're not dizzy from all the blood you lost. Personally I think you should rest all day but you seem fine so far. I mean after all we can't have any butt sex till you heal can we?" "Very funny. I just want to get through my next crap and you're talking anal. You're such an ass! And I mean that with love!" As he smiled at me. "Come on I'm hungry, let's go." He threw on some shorts and we headed downstairs. I went first just in case and he took his time and went at his own pace. By the way he was taking the steps I was pretty sure he was feeling better. When he hit the bottom he got an ovation from all the guys. By now everyone was up and downstairs waiting to see how he was feeling. "Speech!" Joey yelled out. He stood at the bottom of the steps and everyone focused on him. "I just want to thank all of you for standing by me last night. As embarrassing as it might have been I appreciate all your help." "How are you feeling? Asked Billy. "So far good but that was just the steps and I am a little tired but much better then last night when I hear I was being carried around naked like a rag doll." "Well not a rag doll, added Danny but close to it." He headed over to eat as I was asked about play station and TV's from Shawn all of a sudden. "Boy word gets around quickly doesn't it. Danny?" "Well... I um, I have a big mouth?" "Yes you do! But since you asked I was going to go back to the mall today and pick up X-Box and a few play stations and a ton of games for all of us along with a few big TV's if I can fit them. Since we don't have much TV anymore and it's a little boring I guess we can go do that." A joint cheer went up with that idea; suddenly another thought came to mind too about going online with a computer and possibly searching for others. I think for now though I will keep that idea to myself since it might be a danger if we are found by the wrong people or something along those lines. Eventually I will have to do something though or we will never be able to get some normalcy out of life ever again. "When are we going to the mall Tommy? Can we go now? Please?" I was being bombed with questions about it. "Well first of all that monster is still there." Total silence! I think I might have been able to phrase that better since Jon almost dropped his plate on the floor when I said it. "Sorry Jon. Didn't mean to just blurt it out." "I am not going to live scared guys so let's not walk on egg shells when it comes to what happened to me, okay? I admit it pains me but I will get over it. After all I have plenty of love, support and I am safe now. Tommy and I discussed it before and I am going back to the mall as soon as I feel I can handle it. Even if that is today. I owe that bastard a little pay back and I will get mine!" He looked at Shawn as he said that and Shawn smiled and shook his head yes. He totally understood. Then he went back to eating his cereal and things calmed for a bit. Joey and Billy went out into the days heat and Danny asked me if he could take Chris home and get him cleaned and into something good to wear. "Sure you can but I want someone to go with you. Go get Joey or Billy and ask them and let me know." "Okay." He ran out and yelled for then as the door slammed shut behind him. "So what do you want to do today Chris?" "Ride my bike with my brother." "We'll see a little later okay?" He smiled and went to the window to see where is brother was. I followed too. They were all outside talking and after a minute or so Danny came back and inside. He was greeted at the door by Chris. "So what did they say?" "They told me sure as soon as they come back we can all go over all four of us," "I wonder what they are up to." Danny just smiled at me when I said that and I kinda got the idea, "They told you that they were gonna go do that?" I said to him in a low voice so no one else could hear us. "Well not exactly but I noticed that Joey had a tent and when I looked at Billy I couldn't tell but I thought he did too." "Damn tight shorts I guess they give away every little thing." Both of us laughed at that and he went to be with his brother and I had ideas of my own. I looked at Jon and gave him thumbs up, he nodded and I quietly snuck out. Only he saw me go. I didn't want Danny knowing because he would know right away I was going to spy. Jon wasn't going to give me up and he appeared to be fine so I left him with Danny, Shawn and Chris. I am sure he will be fine eating. I snuck up to the window of Billy's house and carefully looked in. I couldn't see anything so I looked for another window and spotted one on the other side of the front door. I slowly glanced in and sure enough they were both in that room. It appeared to be Billy's bedroom. I watched for a little bit and sure enough both of them took off their shirts and were getting undressed. This will be interesting. I am sure once they get into it I can sneak in and well...my cock was already getting hard. First Joey pulled down his shorts and then he stood there in his underwear with a tent darting out for sure. Then Billy got up and did the same. Both of them had hardon's. Without what seemed from my spot Joey grabbed Billy's cock through his underwear and then just yanked then down. Billy was rock hard all right. Then he did the same to Joey as they both stood there naked. Almost simultaneously they both grabbed for one another's hard cock and started stroking each other. I was already hard from spying and this made me reach for my own hardening cock and start playing with it as I watched. They stopped stroking and Joey got on his knees and started to get real close to Billy's cock. Then he took it into his mouth and started sucking him off. I was now rock hard and wanting to join in. I held my ground and watched to see what was next on their minds. Apparently there wasn't a big plan because Joey just kept sucking him. Billy put his hands on the back of Joey's head and helped him pump away on his cock. I could feel the precum in my own boxers now from watching them play and I wanted to do something besides play with myself out here. I waited though as it appeared that Billy was ready from the moaning I heard inside. I couldn't quite make out if his eyes were closed but his head was back and his arms were at his side now. I was sure the little bugger was close to blowing by now. Sure enough Joey backed off as Billy began to cum, I guess Joey is either afraid of it or doesn't like its taste but he just let Billy squirt on him. It looked like a good three or four shots flew onto Joey's chest. He let go of Billy and watched him enjoy his orgasm from my guess. After a minute Joey appeared to be getting up and Billy seemed to be done with his pleasure. Joey took his underwear and wiped the cum from his chest and Billy got on his knees and got ready to return the favor. They way they were talking this was a first for them together I assumed. As Billy started to suck off Joey I couldn't take it anymore I started to think about how it went the last time I was with both of them and I dropped my shorts and boxers right there and started to jerk off myself as I watched Billy suck off Joey. I was already wet from watching the other round and I knew I wasn't going to last too long. This would be the first time I got naked outside and blew my load alone. Good thing no one else is around. I started to stroke myself faster and faster as I watched Billy's head bob back and forth on Joey's cock. I imagined it was me and within a minute I was ready to cum. I sped up and let fly on the wall as I let out a moan. It was louder then I wanted it to be and it caused then to stop what they were doing and both look towards the window. Good thing I ducked and finished shooting my load on the wall. I was sure they wouldn't come and look... after all they were a little busy and I didn't think Joey would let Billy stop for too long. I squeezed the last drop of cum from my own cock and put it back in its place and then cautiously raised my head back up to look inside. As I did so I almost jumped out of my shorts as both of them were at the window watching me. I guess the joke was on me since they probably got a full view of me blowing my wad on the wall. I really wasn't paying much attention but now that I was caught cock in hand so to speak I decided to go in and fess up. I walked to their door and opened it and walked in and was greeted with giggles as I looked at the two naked boys in front of me. "Guess your own orgasm spoiled your spying didn't it?" "Yeah I guess you caught me. Sorry about that. I was horny and took advantage of what I thought you two were gonna do." "So you were there the whole time?" "Yeah I saw you suck off Billy and I was so hard I needed to cum after that." "Yeah we saw that. I guess after you moaned and ducked down you thought we would finish but we came over to see if anyone was there and we both caught you blowing you load on the building. Did it feel good?" I was a little embarrassed. "Sure did! But you never got to finish Joey did you?" "Nope. We are gonna now as soon as you leave." I got the hint and turned to go. Joey yelled stop. "What?" I said as I turned back. "Since you're already here wanna help?" "What did you have in mind Joey?" "Well I was going to let Billy finish but I thought you could play with my ass and increase my orgasm like last time. I am sure Billy won't care." "Nope I don't care it's not my finger in his smelly butt this time." Joey gave him a dirty look when he said that but he quickly focused back on me. "Come on Tommy you owe at least that for spying." I thought about his dirty butt and it sorta turned me off but he was right I couldn't back out and live it down. I was stuck playing with probably a dirty ass hole as payback for spying now. "Okay you win." After all how bad can it be. Billy got back on his knees and started to get Joey hard again as I got behind him on my knees and started playing with Joey's ass. I spread his cheeks and slowly inserted my finger and he let out a moan. He was getting it from both sides now and I was sure he was enjoying it tons. Just to make sure he knew I was there I shoved my finger in all the way and he jumped. "Hey! Your supposed to make me want to cum not hurt me." "Geeze Tommy I almost bit off his cock when you did that!" "Don't even say that Billy just the thought of those words makes me soft." We all went back to our jobs now Billy sucking and me finger fucking. I behaved this time and started slowly fucking his ass with my finger this time. First one then two and I could hear his breathing get shallow now as I had two fingers all the way up his ass. It wasn't pretty but it was working for him I guess. Then he let out a loud moan and without warning started to fill Billy's mouth with cum. I decided to play prick and not pull out if his ass right away so as he was filling Billy's mouth I was still pumping his ass with both fingers. "Tommy stop! You're ruining my orgasm!" He blurted out. I pulled my fingers out with a plop and got up to go wash the stink off them. It was pretty raunchy so I decided not to look just go wash. Joey isn't the cleanest boy in town THAT'S for sure! When I got back Billy was still licking his lips. Apparently he is a cum lover. "Like Joey's cum I see." "Yeah I sure do. More then I ever thought I would, drank every drop of him!" Joey smiled. "Thanks for staying Tommy. We are going to shower and then go help Danny. See ya after, next time don't spy just come in. You're a good man you don't have to ask you can always join us now that you perverted us!" I laughed as I headed towards the door and watched two cute naked asses head up Billy's steps to the bathroom to shower. I went back home and got a dirty look from Jon for being gone so long. "About time you came back! Where were you?" "Ummm, out fucking around?" "Tommy?" I tried to get out of it as I went to the sink to scrub my fingers again. I could still smell Joey on them after another hand scrub. That boy has strong... well you get the point! Jon was all over my back waiting for my answer. So as I dried off my hands I just told him what I did. I thought he would be mad at me but he laughed his ass off because I got caught. "Poor stinky fingers!! Guess that will teach you to spy! HA, HA STINKY FINGER!!" He looked like he was going to wet himself over this but at least he wasn't mad and he seemed to be feeling a lot better too. "You done giggling?" "Yeah pretty much." "Good, how are you feeling? You seem to be much better now." "I am. If it's okay with you I want to go with you." "You can go but I want to check your ass first. If it looks fine I have no objections." "You know I hate you going there!" "Yes I do but you can't do it and it's the only way I will let you out of the house safely." "Yeah, yeah, yeah! Blah, Blah!" I could hear his sarcasm but he didn't have a choice. "Well let's go. Time for your next ass appointment doctor Tom!" He was laughing loudly now as he took advantage of my story again. I can't argue though its much better then how he was yesterday. I can take the ribbing rather then the pain I saw him in! We headed into his room and he shut the door. Now it's my turn to bust. "Okay boy STRIP!" Now I was giggling as he took down his shorts and boxers for me. "Nice cock!" Payback is such a bitch! He grabbed hold of it and waved it at me. "Yes it is too bad you won't be finding out anytime soon how nice it is." Ouch! He is good! "Oh really? We'll see! Okay it was serious time now. "How do you want to do this? Leaning over the bed is probably easiest." "Yeah I guess... I hate this!" He went to his bed and laid out and spread his leg for me. I couldn't resist so I reached through and took a handful of his balls ever so softly and fondled them just to get even. Then against his wishes I stroked him a few times. "Hey, HEY cut it out your down there to check my ass not get me hard!" "Yeah, yeah! Blah, Blah!" Payback! "You just wait Thomas I'll get even with you eventually! Somehow!" Again I snickered but it was time to get serious now. "Okay I am gonna check now so are you ready?" "Yeah as ready as I ever will be." "Okay spread 'em for me." He took apart his cheeks and I took a look. Not bad. No where near as red and the swelling was down too. "Okay I am done just one sec I want to put a little more salve on you." I spread it all over him and entered him just a little to make sure I didn't miss anything. "Ohhhh baby that's still cold on me!" "Sorry but I need to do it." "Yeah I know. So how is it?" "Much better! You can go if you want it looks that good." "Awesome!" "Okay get dressed. As soon as Billy and Joe are done we will leave. Danny isn't going he isn't ready for that again just yet so he can stay here with Chris while we go take care of business." "Fine with me! I have payback on my mind anyway and I want some ice cream too! That ass hole is going to be in a few pieces when I am done!" "I have a feeling you are going to do some cutting. I really don't care but just be careful I don't need anymore of your blood spilled okay?" "Yes sir! He said sarcastically. I totally understand but his nuts are mine after I kick the shit out him!" Not quite how I would word it but I know he is hurting and he deserves payback so it's up to him. Jon got dressed and we all met downstairs and headed out to the truck and back to the mall. The drive was quick and very quiet. I suppose that everyone has the dead creep on their mind just like I do. I have rope and we will tie it to him and drag him out of the area just like we did to the last guy that was in Shawn's house. "How you holding up Jon?" "Fine so far no pain at all." "Good, glad to hear it, How about you Shawn?" "I'm not sure really, it feels like my house all over again a little but that guy was such a monster I guess I can't wait to see him get his." "Yeah!" said Jon. It grew quiet in the truck once again. If I didn't see them I wouldn't even know Joey or Billy was here they have been so quiet. I pulled into the mall and parked right in front of the entrance like last time and we all got out. "Okay I want everyone in pairs. Grab a partner while we are here, NO one goes anywhere alone!" I got Jon, Billy got Joe and Shawn was practically glued to me as usual as we entered the mall. Nothing had changed since yesterday and we even saw where we left some of our stuff as we quickly left after the indecent. Knowing I had to get this over with I headed straight to the place where it happened. We creped slowly down the hall as we approached, my heart beating in my chest like it wanted to explode through it. I could only imagine how the others felt and I was carrying the gun! Finally we were at the entrance and Jon had hold of my upper arm tight enough to almost stop the circulation. "You sure you want to do this?" He nodded. "Okay then I'm going to go in and check first then he is all yours." "Okay." I pulled my gun and cautiously entered the store like a scared rat going for the cheese in the trap. I knew in the back of my mind there was nothing to fear but for some reason the atmosphere left me feeling otherwise. I flipped on all the store lights and entered. The ass hole was in the same spot as we left him yesterday with the towel still covering his disfigured face. I walked up to him and gave him a big kick and then after he didn't move picked the towel off him. He was still as gross as he was yesterday, maybe even more in the light of the room. I took the gun and smacked him upside the head just to be sure and when I was sure, I turned to the door and waved Jon in. I gave him a smile and grabbed his arm giving him a secure feeling as I walked out and left him to do whatever he had planned. I watched from the door as he approached the body and stood over him for what seemed like forever. I was just about to go to him when he bent over and started to do something. I assumed he was going to do some cutting. I stayed back but kept my eye on him from here wanting to make sure he was safe but give him room to do whatever he had in mind. I watched him pull off the scum bags pants and stand there staring for a while. I wasn't sure what he was going on but I assumed he wasn't going to cut off anything like he said he would. Finally he turned dropped the knife he was holding and came over towards me. I walked towards him and as he approached me he grabbed me tightly and hugged me even tighter. I could hear him crying as I wrapped my arms around him. We just stood there for a bit as I let him work through his feeling. He lifted his head and spoke quietly in my ear. "I couldn't do it Tommy. I just couldn't bring myself to cut off another guys junk. As mad as I was and as much as I wanted pay back I couldn't do that to someone. It's just not me." He broke our embrace and wiped his face with his hands as I watched him in silence. I smiled faintly to try to cheer him up some but it didn't seem to help. I wasn't sure what to do so I just watched to see what he was going to do and as he headed out of the room I followed. He headed to the truck. I watched as he grabbed the rope and walked past me back towards the store. "You coming?" he said to me. "Yeah right behind you." "Good! I might not have the balls to cut his off but I am not going to let him ruin my mall! Lets drag this scum outta here and then go shopping I still want that ice cream!" I followed him back into the store where the bastard was and watched with the others as he took one end of the rope and tied it around his groin as tightly as he could. I didn't think what he wanted to do would work but I wasn't going to try to stop him. "Okay everyone I want you to pull with me so we can get him into the parking lot." Without anyone saying a word we did as Jon wished. We pulled and unbelievably the body started to move. Ever so slowly, but it was sliding across the floor as we pulled the rope. Eventually we had him to the door and into the mall walkway all the time we were pulling him by the rope tied around his genitalia. No one said a word we just worked like a machine. I guess Jon was getting something from this but he wasn't letting on if it was enjoyment or payback! After about fifteen minutes of tugging we had the body to the front door and finally Jon spoke. "We did it! I might not have had the balls to cut his off but we dragged him out here by his." I went over and took a look and as weird as it was the rope did its job. Everything was still intact but a bit stretched. I tried not to figure it out. "Come on Tommy I want to finish this lets pull the son of a bitch out of here and tie him to the truck so we can get him to the river and dump him like the other guy." "Okay Jon but I don't think he is going to make it to a body of water tied on by that little thing." "You think I care? If it breaks I will tie it to something else but this is how I am dealing with the pain he caused me so please can we go?" I nodded and as soon as the body was clear of the door I tied the rope to the bumper of the truck and with Jon watching it, everyone else got in and I started to move the truck. It was going well for about the first 50 feet as I drove as slow as I could so Jon could keep up while he walked along with us. Then I heard him yell stop. I did and turned to him. "What's up?" "Um, well... let's say something ripped off." I didn't need anymore details. I waited for him to retie the body and this time he got in. "Okay let's go. Where ever you want, it won't break this time." I felt a little sick to my stomach as the thought of what did `break off' last time crossed my mind. I took off dragging the body. We drove thru the parking lot and gladly for me there was a lake or river just off the parking area. I pulled up onto a bridge and stopped the truck. We all got out and went over to the body. I won't go into details but I will say things were missing. Jon untied the rope from the truck and we dragged it as far as we could and then carefully pushed the body off the bridge and into the water about fifteen feet below I guessed. It hit with a splash and followed the flowing water down stream. Jon watched till it was out of sight and then got back into the truck to join us. None of the guys cared to watch but him and as I said it was understandable since it wasn't our ass that was violated I didn't have the balls to argue with him nor did the others... well let's just say they did what Jon asked but kinda had a sick look on their face as we got rid of the body at the bridge. It was a little messy but it was over. "Sorry I had to put all you guys through that. But I am sure other then Shawn none of you understand how that felt to me." No one really said anything but Shawn who just said yes. We headed back to the mall and I tried to put the incident behind me. "I want ice cream Tommy if it's okay with the others and I need to wash after that." I nodded in agreement. "Yeah I think we all should wash." Said Joey. No one disagreed as I parked the truck again and all headed back into the mall. Shawn took Jon aside as they trailed behind for a minute and talked. I suppose it was about what happened but I really didn't need details. After that we all headed the bathroom to wash and then to the ice cream shop and I started scooping orders. By the time we were done filling our bellies thoughts of what we just did seemed to be behind us. I know I was ready to cruise the mall for goodies and as I asked if the others were and a cheer went up so we all headed out and went store to store. Each of us had a shopping cart and after a few hours we all appeared to have clothes, electronics and anything else that interested us. Now the only thing left was to fit it all into the truck which shouldn't be too difficult considering the size of the truck. I found a small trailer and hooked it to the rear of the truck. Luck for me there was a towing package on the truck and it was easy to attach this trailer. We all filled the truck and piled in and soon we were on our way back to the house and Danny and Christian. I took it a little slower with the filled trailer so it took us about twenty minutes longer to get home then usual. Danny was waiting for us when I pulled up and the look on his face pretty much said it all. We went shopping without him and as soon as I got out he let me know how he felt bout it. "If I would have know you were gonna shop I would have went. Geeze that's so unfair! I never get to go anywhere or get anything I want and you guys..." I let him go on and tried to tune him out as best as I could. Finally he stopped crying about it. "Look, you wanted to stay so don't cry to me. When we go back you can shop all you want and take whatever you want next time." "Yeah but you guys all have nice new stuff now and I don't have any new clothes or anything." "Dan if it makes you stop complaining I'll take you tomorrow okay? And that isn't you have the new stuff it's WE have it as in all of us in the house!! So tomorrow we will do just a special trip for you! How's that?" He smiled and finally stopped complaining about it. Then he started with he was hungry and I swung at him as he jumped out of the way and started laughing when he got far enough away from me. "Find your own food! I yelled at him, the frig is full!" Finally I had quiet and no one in my face. The day was getting on now and although the sun was still high in the sky I knew it wouldn't be long before we put another day behind us. I sat on the lounge chair outside swung my legs up and closed my eyes to take in some sun. Before I knew it I was asleep. I was awakened by Jon sometime later and as I came back to my senses I asked him what time it was. "It's almost 5pm. I let you sleep a few hours but I didn't think you wanted to stay out all night so I woke you. "Thanks, your right. It felt good but I really didn't want to sleep any longer then I did. I feel good now." I put my feet on the ground and he sat down on the end of the chair between my legs. He scooted up next to me and lay on me as best as he could. His head came up to my chest and I took my arm and placed it on him as he put his head on my chest and started playing with his hair. "Tommy thanks for letting me get that off my chest today. I know it wasn't pretty but I had to do it. I didn't enjoy it as much as I thought I would, I guess revenge isn't in me. But at least I got even on some level. That prick lost his and I enjoyed watching the rope fly loose as it pulled off him." "Well your right Jon. I am sure you felt better afterwards but it wasn't me so I can't say if what you did was right or not, just like Shawn kicking those guys the way he did. I suppose if it were me I might have acted differently but from my eyes it was pretty gross. I won't hold it against you Jon because I saw the blood and pain you went through yesterday and I do understand but it just freaked me out a little to see his body after we stopped at the bridge. I can't imagine what Billy and Joe thought. They didn't say a word all day. You might want to go have a talk with them a little later just so there aren't any bad thoughts. I am sure they understand but still it was pretty messy by the time we were finished." "Okay I will." We sat there a bit longer and I stroked his hair some more. I started to run my hands up and down his back too, as far as I could reach and I could tell he was really enjoying it. I couldn't go much past his mid back and chest the way he was laying but I knew if I didn't stop I was going to put him to sleep right on me. Finally I stopped and he turned his head to me and as awkward as it was for him to look me in the face from his position he managed to finally maneuver himself to see me eye to eye. "Thanks, that was awesome. Why ja stop?" "Because I thought you were falling asleep and I didn't want to have to be trapped here while I decided whether you should sleep or not so..." "Okay I get the idea." He got up and after he stood he reached out and pulled me up too. "Thanks, you hungry?" "Getting there." "How's your butt?" "Haven't thought about it all day." "That's good. Maybe your going to heal fine and there will be no problems." "I sure hope so." We headed into the house together and before I could even head up to take a leak I was being bombed with questions about dinner. I told them to wait and I went up to pee. After I was done I washed up and headed back down to the group of hungry mouths to see what I could do. I scanned the room and everyone was there. Six hungry mouths and not a clue what to eat. I wanted pizza I haven't had it since the comet and then some. Maybe frozen pizza at the store would do. After all, its all there is. "How about pizza?" Dead silence, how weird. "Well I am having pizza your all old enough to make something for yourself so you're all on your own. There is cereal, bread and all kinds of food in the kitchen. I am going to the store and get me some frozen pizza and have what I want for a change." I turned and headed out the door and got into my truck. Surprisingly no one had followed yet so I guess I didn't have anyone else interested in coming. I started the truck and backed out of my driveway. I checked the mirrors before I left and I slowly took off expecting someone to come running and yelling for me to stop. No one did. So I left. It was the first time I think I was alone since the comet hit and it felt good but totally weird at the same time. I was about three blocks from the house when my cell rang. I picked it up and it was Jon. "What's up?" "You took off so fast, you mad at something?" "Nope not one bit. I just didn't feel like playing chef tonight and I was in the mood for pizza so when I didn't have any takers I decided to go for it on my own." "Oh okay, can you come back for me? I would love to join you." "Sure, I'll turn around and meet you in a minute. Bye." I made a U turn and headed back the three blocks. I turned into the circle and Jon was waiting outside with Shawn. What a surprise... I pulled up and they got in. "Guess you decided to have pizza Shawn?" "Not sure, just bored and decided to come along. Joe and Billy are playing play station and Danny is reading to his brother so I was odd man out and bored anyway. Is it okay with you?" "You know it is silly." I looked at Jon and he just rolled his eyes. Which either meant I am being sickly sweet or that he can't get away from
