my error for proper paragraph structure.  Since I am writing this story in
the third person narrative form, I thought that first person style and
structure was different.  Not being a trained or professional writer, I
went with what I could remember from my classes in college.  Fritz was very
articulate as he demonstrated proper structure of both first, and third
person narrative styles.  I have gone back, corrected the four previous
chapters, and resubmitted them to Nifty.  Another issue I would like to

the people who continue to email me responses to this story.  There is
still a while to go on it, and I hope you enjoy every chapter.  I will be
taking a two week hiatus now for renovations in my home, but chapter 6 is
complete and I should post it upon my return.  Thank you all again.


Rodie's Love: Chapter 5

By Snwdemon with collaboration from Leo and Scott


	As Jim awoke in the morning, the sharp stabbing pains he has grown
so accustom to were not there though.  This surprised Jim because the pain
had been with him for so long, Jim now looked at it more as an annoying
friend instead of something bad.  Jim could feel the lightweight of Rodie's
small body lying on top of him.  Looking at his small face, while softly
brushing the hair out of his face, Jim watched as Rodie opened his eyes and
focused on him.  Something was amiss Jim thought as Rodie woke and grimaced
as if he was hurt.

	"Good morning beautiful," Jim said to the naked boy lying on his
chest.  Instead of smiling or replying, Rodie ground his teeth together,
and groaned as he stiffly slid off Jim's body slowly.  Aarrrhhhggg was all
Jim heard from the small boy as he gingerly got up, moved over, and lay
beside him.  Suspecting something, but unsure still, Jim decided to test
his theory.  "Come on surf boy, I think we both could use a shower.
However I need to piss like a race horse first."  Jim said as he sat up,
then stood skipping his normal morning stretching routine.  Standing
upright without any pain, Jim now was certain what was going on, because
his back and leg muscles should have been screaming at him with pain.  Jim
heard a soft groan behind him as he stood, so Jim slowly turned to face
Rodie.

	Looking into his small face, Jim could see the pain while tears
were welling up in his small eyes.  Understanding now what Rodie was doing,
Jim sat back on the bed and spoke directly to Rodie.  "I know what your
doing Rodie, and I want you to stop right now.  While I appreciate it, I
want you to stop it now because you can seriously hurt yourself."  Jim said
while throwing in all the authority he could into his voice.  With an
audible grunt, Rodie let out his breath explosively as he went limp on the
bed.  Jim was glad he had chosen to sit when he did because the pain
returned with a force like running full speed into a wall.  "That's more
like it!"  Jim said in a strained voice as his muscles knotted quickly.
Taking a few deep breaths then slowly stretching out his limbs before Jim
reached over and retrieved his medication.  Quickly taking the bitter
pills, Jim felt the pain easing up a little after a few minutes.

	"Welcome back, old friend," Jim said to himself as the pain started
to subside and his muscles loosen.  Turning and looking towards Rodie, who
was now looking at him sheepishly through his long tangled hair as it hung
in front of his face, Jim said, "You!  Come over here right now."

	Slowly obeying him Rodie inched his way across the bed until his
head and shoulders were lying across Jim's lap.  Pointing a finger at him
and shaking it Jim reprimanded, "don't you ever do that again, you hear me!
Now do you care to explain yourself as to why you did it in the first place
young man?"  Looking up at Jim with an innocent expression, Rodie reached
up and kissed him on the lips before lying down on his back with his arms
above his head, so his naked young body was fully displayed to Jim.  Jim
could see Rodie's small penis beginning to grow as it bobbed and twitched
to Rodie's heartbeat until it was fully erect.  Quickly looking back at
Rodie, Jim thought silently, "stop trying to tempt me and explain
yourself."

	"Are you really mad at me Jim?"  Rodie thought back while looking
at him with a slightly worried expression.

	Still looking at him then smiling Jim said, "no, I am not mad at
you surf boy.  You just scared me is all, doing what you did could have
hurt you because you are not adjusted to deal with it as I am."

	Answering this time in his small voice Rodie said, "I just wanted
to see if I could help is all.  I woke up before you did and felt all the
pain you had, I learned how to do it a while ago.  I would take mom's
headaches away from her when she was having a bad day."  Rodie explained
while looking away in the direction of Jim's computer desk.  Turning back
to Jim he asked, "how can you stand it Jim?  I mean is it like this all the
time?  It took all my concentration just to hold it in."

	Jim could hear the concern in his voice as a worried expression
came across his small face.  "You get used to it after so long, it was hard
at first.  Right after the accident, but as the months stretched into
years, I learned to deal with it so now only at certain times do I really
notice it.  It is sort of like an annoying friend that you wish would leave
you alone but you don't have the heart to tell him."  Jim answered
truthfully knowing that Rodie could sense whether he was telling the truth
or not.  "My turn now, Do you always hear and feel what everyone around you
is thinking and feeling or is it selective?"  Jim asked as he started to
run his hand lightly over Rodie's naked torso as Rodie's erect penis flexed
automatically at his touch.

	"Well, it's sort of like its always there but I can ignore it most
of the time, unless someone catches me off guard like yesterday.  I cannot
block them out if the feelings and thoughts are that strong.  I really
wasn't expecting John to come up behind me like that."  Rodie answered as
he stretched out his arms above his head while Jim softly caressed his body
from neck to just below his belly button.

	"Speaking about that, why did you react like that to John?  Is he
someone who I need to worry about?"  Jim asked seriously.  Rodie thought
about it for a long while before he answered.

	"I think it was because he scared me Jim, I had my head open to
Mark because I really wanted to be friends with him when John came up and
touched me.  When he did that it was like I was sucked right into his
thoughts, and the one that kept coming at me repeatedly was how much he
wanted to do it in my butt.  The things he would like to do to me if he
could are almost the same things that my daddy did to me.  That's when I
stopped thinking sort of, it was as you said last night I guess.  All I
could think of after that was to find you.  I couldn't help it really, it
was like someone else took me over, I guess that was the P.T.S. stuff you
told me about.  Right?"  Rodie explained softly to him.

	"Why find me Rodie?  Why not your mom or just runaway from him?"
Jim asked, pressing him for a reason.

	"I dunno, I just knew I had to find you is all.  I cannot explain
it...but I really feel safe with you Jim.  Like nothing can ever hurt me
when I'm with you," Rodie said solemnly as he looked up into Jim's eyes.

	"I'm glad I make you feel that way surf boy," Jim answered as he
smiled.

	Rodie blushed slightly before looking away and saying, "I knew the
first day when I saw you really Jim.  People kinda give off a kinda feeling
about them that I can pick up.  I felt it when I saw you watching me from
your deck," Rodie said somewhat softly.

	"Really Rodie?  So what did you feel from me that day?"  Jim asked
as he dug his finger into Rodie's small belly button; he had been lightly
tracing around its edges.  Rodie squealed loudly in laughter, he quickly
grabbed Jim's wrist and pushing his hand away as he giggled, as Jim watched
Rodie's little hard cocklet bounce and wiggle.  Rodie quickly settled back
onto Jim's lap as Jim resumed his long slow caresses.

	"No fair!  You are bigger than me."  Rodie complained while he
stuck out his bottom lip as if he was pouting.

	"You didn't answer my question surf boy," Jim replied.

	Rodie looked away from him, then in a very soft voice said, "I knew
that you loved me Jim.  I felt that no matter what I told you, no matter
what anyone said about me, or whatever I did that you would love me and
always be with me."  Rodie turned back to look at him and Jim saw a small
tear trickling down the side of his face.

	As Jim gently wiped it away with his thumb while he returned
Rodie's gaze, "you were right my love, I did love you when I saw you that
first day.  I love you even more as each day goes by.  After Byron died,
part of me died inside too.  And I have remained dead inside until I saw
you, beautiful."  Jim said gently, knowing that what he said was true.  Jim
had lived, and loved more in the last few days than he had for the last 20
years.  Rodie reached up catching Jim in an embrace as he brought his lips
together with Jim's lips.  After breaking the kiss, Jim hugged his small
body to his when he heard Rodie whisper into his ear.

	"Please do not ever leave me, I really need you Jim because you
make me feel so normal now," Rodie's boyish voice wavered as his emotions
started coming through.

	"I will not leave you, not if I can help it Rodie, because I need
you more.  You have given me a reason to live again, so I promise to never
leave you if I have any control over it."  Jim said softly while returning
Rodie's fierce embrace.  Just then, Rodie let out a small high-pitched
"eeek," as he quickly looked at the door.  Jim reached over and pulled the
covers over them just as Cathy knocked, then opened the door carrying two
steaming mugs of coffee.

	"Good morning Cathy" Jim said while he blushed slightly.  Rodie had
quickly squirmed his way under the covers until he was almost in the middle
of the bed.

	"Good Morning Jim...Rodie!  It is just me; I cannot see why you are
hiding under there like that!  I peeked in on you both last night when I
got home and I saw you both, so come out from under there before I spill
this everywhere."  Cathy exclaimed as she held out a cup to Jim until he
took it.  "Rodie come out here right now!"  Cathy demanded.

	"MOM!  I can't...umm...I am not wearing anything!  I'm naked mom!"
Rodie explained embarrassingly.

	"I already know that you silly goose!  If I were going to say
something about it, I would have done so last night when I saw your naked
little butt asleep on top of Jim.  I really don't want to assume what you
both did last night Jim."  Cathy said as she looked at Jim with an
inquiring expression.

	"Well we did not do anything like that if that is what you're
thinking Cathy.  He is much too young to consider intercourse yet.  What
really happened was that I helped him work through some very personal
problems he was unable to work out for himself," Jim answered truthfully
while he blushed slightly.  Watching Jim intently, then her features
softening, Cathy looked back at the lump under the covers that represented
Rodie and said.

	"Please Rodie!  You are just acting silly now.  Besides, it is time
you grow up a little because we have a lot of decisions to make, now come
out from there right now!"  Cathy insisted.  It must have been in her tone
of voice that suddenly got Rodie's attention because his head popped out
from under the blankets, staring intently at her while taking his coffee
from her.  He carefully sat his cup down on the nightstand on his side of
the bed, after taking a quick sip before he turned to continue his stare.
At the same time, he gripped the covers to his chin while blushing prettily
as she stared right back him.

	"You sold our trailer, mom?  Why?"  He asked with a confused look
on his face.

	"Well it seems we no longer need it, besides I need the money for
something more important.  Come here cause I know you can sense it and you
will understand."  Cathy answered him while Jim had no idea what they were
discussing really.  Then quite deliberately Rodie jumped up onto his knees
while reaching forward and grabbing his mother's hand not caring as the
covers fell away revealing his nakedness and aroused state.  Just as
quickly, Jim saw the tears start streaming down his face as he continued to
stare into his mother's eyes.

	"We are going home tomorrow?  Why mom?"  Rodie said in a voice
scarcely higher than a whisper.

	"We have to Rodie."  Cathy replied as she wiped his eyes with her
free hand before hugging him close.  She looked at Jim, then back at Rodie
before saying, "but I won't know how long we will remain there until Jim
and you quit tickling each other long enough to come and talk to Eddie and
me."  Cathy answered him with a smirk on her face while her eyes remained
incredibly soft as she continued to wipe his tears away.

	"MOM!  All we were doing was just talking is all, REALLY!"  Rodie
exclaimed indignantly as he put his small hands on his bare hips.

	"I see, then was that what all the giggling was about then, or was
there something else that was the cause, hmm?"  Cathy said as she pointed
down at Rodie's erection, then while Rodie blushed red, she looking at Jim
she said, "Eddie and I really would like to talk to you as soon as you can
find the time Jim."

	"Give us a few minutes to shower and get dressed then we will be
right out ok," Jim told her.

	With a twinkle in her eyes she turned back to Rodie, "I put some
fresh clothes for you over there, Rodie, now hurry up and get dressed.
Unless you want to show off your nice tan to everybody," she said while
lightly touching the visible tan line on his lower belly just above his now
softening penis.

	Suddenly as if someone flipped a switch, Rodie's modesty returned,
he squeaked another "eeek" then quickly covered his hairless groin with
both hands while blushing bright red.  Cathy laughed lightly and winked at
Jim before she walked out of the room closing the door behind her.

	With a smile, Jim looked at Rodie, "that must have been awfully
important for you to bare it all to a girl!"  Jim said with a chuckle as
Rodie looked quickly at him while blushing even more.  He then lunged at
Jim, grabbing him around the neck, pretending to choke him.

	"How could you let her see my pee-pee when it was hard," Rodie
exclaimed in mock fury.

	"Oh, I think lil' Rodie decided to introduce himself to her all on
his own.  You saw how he was jumping up and down until she noticed him
didn't you?"  Jim explained with a smirk on his face.  Rodie blushed a
little, then looked down at his small penis, as it bobbed up and down
slightly, as it was erect once more.  Looking back at Jim, Rodie started
giggling as he put his arms around Jim's neck and kissing him.

	"Come on you `Horn Dawg', let us get showered and dressed so we can
find out what your mom wants," Jim told Rodie.  Jim then kissed Rodie's
upturned nose and stood up.  He headed into the bathroom and lifted the
toilet seat before letting loose a hot stream of piss into the bowl.  Rodie
walked in and stood beside him as he aimed his hard 3-inch penis down and
started peeing also.  Once they had relieved themselves, they both brushed
their teeth.  Jim lathered up his face while Rodie watched, then after he
finished Explaining everything he was doing, Jim lathered up Rodie's face
and proceeded in teaching him how to shave, and then Rodie followed Jim
into the shower.

	As Jim washed Rodie's long black hair, Rodie asked "Jim what was
that jug thingy last night?"

	"Oh that, it is call a portable urinal, they have men and boys use
it in the hospital when they can't get out of bed to go to the bathroom.
The only other way is to get a Foley tube put into your bladder."  Jim
answered him as he applied conditioner to Rodie's hair.

	"What's a Foley tube Jim?"  Rodie asked curiously while Jim worked
the conditioner through his hair.

	"It is a tube they put into your pee-pee.  It goes into your
bladder and is attached to a bag so that your pee does not build or and you
don't pee the bed."  Jim explained as Rodie giggled.

	"I like this Jim...my daddy never did anything like this you know.
My mom used to give me baths until I was four I think.  After that I did it
myself."  Rodie said in a content voice as Jim was now gently washing his
small body with the body sponge.

	"Well this is just my opinion now surf boy, so don't quote me on
it.  I believe that it is a man's duty to teach his son, or any boy for
that matter, about all of the things he will need to know when he is grown.
Not just things like where babies come from, but to teach a boy about
everything.  Love, sex, personal hygiene and grooming, moral and social
standards also.  I also believe that a man should love his child no matter
what his child decides to do with his life, like if he is gay, or wants to
join the clergy.  That is his decision, a man or father should have enough
faith in the value of everything he taught his son.  Knowing that value
will show in whatever he chooses, that he will make him proud.  Can you
understand that my love?"  Jim said.

	"Yeah, I do understand Jim, and I agree with you."  Turning around
and hugging Jim tightly, Rodie looked at Jim as tears welled up in his eyes
and said.  "You are more of a father to me than my daddy has ever been to
me Jim."  Jim smiled as he hugged Rodie tightly as his own tears started to
fall down his face.  With a warm feeling throughout him Jim kissed Rodie on
the lips to express his gratefulness to the honor Rodie had given him by
equating him to father status.

	I would be proud to be your father Rodie, and proud to have a son
like you.  Since I can not be your father, I will settle for your love if
you will settle for mine.  Now lets hurry up so we don't look like prunes
when we see your mother," Jim explained as he slapped Rodie's pert butt
making him squeal.

	After they finished showering, they dried off and dressed before
Jim ran a comb and brush through Rodie's long damp hair.  Rodie kissed him
once more after Jim finished before they walked out to the living room
carrying their coffee mugs.  Seeing Eddie sitting on the couch while Cathy
sat across from him on the love seat, Jim greeted them as he sat in the
recliner.  "Good Morning to you both, we did not even realize you were
here," he said as Rodie moved quietly and sat by his mother.

	"Oh we could tell Jim, although HE sounded like he was enjoying
himself quite a bit more than you, Jim," Cathy said pointing at Rodie.

	"MOM!"  Rodie said loudly as he blushed a deep red.  Seeing Eddie
and Cathy laughing; Jim watched as Rodie blushed in embarrassment, he then
saw the tears that started to trickle down his red face.

	Rodie looked towards Jim, and Jim replied silently to him, "it's ok
beautiful, come here."  Rodie stood, ran over to Jim, and climbed quickly
into Jim's lap burying his head into Jim's shoulder as he started to cry
softly.

	"They are just having a little fun teasing you is all, they really
don't mean it so don't get upset my love."  Jim said softly to Rodie, as he
saw Eddie and Cathy stop laughing as Rodie ran to Jim.

	"I'm sorry honey, I was only teasing you, it is ok, so don't cry, I
promise I will not do it anymore," Cathy said softly as she got up and
knelt beside Rodie as he cried quietly into Jim's shoulder.

	"Sometimes I forget how sensitive he really is Jim," Cathy
explained to them.  Rodie lifted his head, turned his tear-streaked face to
his mother, and allowed her to pick him up as he cried into her shoulder
now as he hugged her tightly.

	"I don't want to leave mom...Jim needs me and he loves me...and I
love and need him too...please mom...don't make me leave...please."  Rodie
said quietly as he continued to cry into her shoulder while Cathy sat on
the loveseat and held him.

	"I know you don't want to leave him honey, that is why we need to
talk now, but we still have a home in Virginia, and what about all your
friends there?"  Cathy asked him.  Rodie lifted his head and looked her in
the eyes for a few moments before replying.  Jim watched as his face showed
first love and understanding to his mom, then sadness, and defeat, and
finally utter despair.

	"I don't have any friends back home...I am so lonely mom.  I cannot
do this again, I can't live so alone like that anymore.  I will not live
alone again, not ever now that I have found Jim.  I don't want to be alone
anymore, mom...I won't be alone anymore with Jim...please?"  Rodie said as
his tears flowed while his face showed how truly isolated he had become
since his father's betrayal, before he let her gently guide his head back
to her shoulder.

	With tears of understanding in her eyes now, Cathy replied, "I know
baby, I know.  I never could understand why you decided to separate
yourself from everyone all of the sudden.  I wanted to help you so much,
but you would not let me.  I saw how painfully alone you were becoming, and
I wanted to help you so badly, but you kept pushing me away.  I know the
truth now honey, and I can help...if you will let me this time.  I don't
care what others might think, I just want you to be happy is all.  I know
Jim is who you need to be with Rodie.  But I need your help if I will be
able to make you happy dear."  Cathy gently explained to Rodie as she
comforted him.

	"How can you help me be happy if you're taking me away from Jim?"
Rodie asked after raising his head to look at her with a confused
expression while continuing to cry.

	"Well if you live here with Jim only, people will start asking
questions when they don't see you doing anything other boys do.  They will
also wonder what a single man is doing when a young boy who is not related
to him suddenly moves in and lives with him.  So we need some valid reason
to stay here so it won't make others suspicious, and you need your stuff if
you are going to live here too, don't you?"  Cathy said as Rodie looked at
her with a surprised look on his face.

	"Really mom?  You mean I can live here with Jim forever?"  Rodie
asked quietly.

	"Well that is up to Jim really, but if he says yes, then it is ok
with me also," Cathy answered as she rubbed noses with Rodie making him
smile.  Jim watched this, and seeing Rodie with his mother, he knew that he
could not let Rodie lose his mother just to be with him.

	"I'm sorry Cathy, but Rodie can't live here with me..." Jim
interjected quickly.  Rodie looked sharply at Jim with a stunned expression
on his face as if he had been slapped, and Cathy was about to protest his
quick decision when Jim continued.

	"Let me finish before both of you say anything alright.  Now Rodie,
could you live here with me without your mother being here with you?"  Jim
asked the bewildered young boy.  Rodie thought for a few long moments, his
face had a small frown of concentration on it.  He looked back at Jim with
his bottom lip quivering, then slowly shook his head "no" as tears shone in
his eyes then started to spill down his cheeks again.

	"Exactly what I thought Rodie.  So Cathy that means that I move in
either with you or both of you move in with me.  I promised never to leave
him, and I will keep that promise," Jim told Cathy.

	"I was thinking the same thing Jim," Cathy responded.  "That's why
I want to talk to you, Eddie and I came up with an idea that we want to run
by you.  If you like it, it means taking a risk but financial success also,
and it gives us a valid reason to live here with you.  That works for all
four of us, really.  You and Eddie, have an excellent investment, I have a
challenge with my new business while raising Rodie, and Rodie gets to be
with you and me," Cathy said with a smile.

	Rodie smiled first at his mom, then looked hopefully at Jim, as he
still sat in her lap with his arms around her neck as he rested his head
against her as she gently wiped his face with a tissue.  Eddie and Cathy
took turns explaining their business plan to change Cathy's deli into a
gourmet franchise.  After listening to what they had to say and then asking
his own questions Jim finally asked them "Well it seems like you have this
pretty well planned out, what do you need me for then?"

	Eddie smiled as he looked at Cathy then faced Jim before replying
in a droll tone of voice.  "My dear, dear friend, we need you because of
your filthy rich status, Mr. Moneybags!"  Eddie said flippantly.

	Laughing at him Jim said, "oh I get it now, I'm the `Financier', in
this relationship?"

	"Well someone has to be, I was blessed with the brains and style,
so you got the looks and the cash ok."  Eddie replied like a therapist
pointing out deficiencies in someone.

	"How much to get this plan moving?"  Jim asked.

	"Brace yourself, I would tell you to sit down but you already are,
we figure a million to make it work Jim," Eddie replied seriously.

	"A million!"  Jim exclaimed, Cathy watched him with a very worried
expression while Rodie tilted his head for a moment then smiled.  "I
thought you were going to ask for a lot of money there for a moment," Jim
replied smiling at Rodie and his mother who both looked confused.  Jim
looked at Cathy and explained, "After my accident I was awarded 5.5 million
in damages, Eddie introduced me to one of his friends who handled it for
me.  It turns out that he is one of the most successful financial managers
on Wall Street.  I am worth just over $50 million today."  Rodie's mouth
fell open in disbelief when Jim said that.

	"It is true Cathy, Jim is very wealthy, this was our original home,
but he moved back last year because he wanted to be alone.  I think he
would not have lived to see next spring if Rodie and you had not come to
save him," Eddie explained seriously.

	"This isn't your real house Jim?"  Rodie asked while looking
intently at him.

	"No it isn't Rodie, Eddie and I have lived together since we left
home 20 years ago.  We had a home custom built for us, and he has stayed
there for the last year by himself while I stayed here.  If you live with
me, we will live at our home and not here except for summer.  This place
will freeze a person to death in wintertime," Jim explained to them.

	"But if your rich you should live in like a huge mansion and have a
gazillion bodyguards and stuff shouldn't you?"  Rodie while his eyes were
wide with disbelief still.

	"I don't have to Rodie, and I am glad now that I don't because I
would have never met you then if I did."  Jim said to Rodie as his face
showed the love he felt for the small boy who was sitting in his mother's
lap.

	"What's it look like Jim?"  Rodie asked in shy voice.

	"It is quite a bit larger than here Rodie, but I think it would be
better if you saw it for yourself.  Unless you haven't cleaned the place
Eddie," Jim said in a teasing voice to Eddie.

	"Oh sure Jim, just cause you have to peel off an occasional pair a
briefs that have stuck to the wall, you now consider me a slob, WELL!
REALLY NOW!"  Eddie exclaimed with a shocked and injured expression on his
face that was highly exaggerated.

	"Can we go see it now Jim?"  Rodie asked seriously.  Thinking for a
moment before he replied, Jim thought about the previous night's events and
decided he needed to speak with Cathy alone first.

	"No in a little while ok.  I was thinking you could go with Eddie
to the `Dunkin Doughnuts' and get breakfast for all of us," Jim suggested.
With Rodie looking at him intently again, Jim heard in his mind.

	"You want me to go so you can talk to mom alone right?"  Rodie
asked.

	Jim silently replied, "yes, I need to discuss some things with her
ok surf boy?  So why don't you go with Eddie and get us some doughnuts for
breakfast."

	"You aren't going to tell her that you kissed my pee-pee are you?"
Rodie asked silently as Jim felt suspicion dripping from the question.

	"Well you seemed to enjoy it you know, I don't know exactly what I
will say.  However, I was going to tell her about that, just in case she
didn't move here, so that way she would know what you liked."  Jim thought
back while he surpressed his laughter.

	"You better not!"  Was Rodie's response, "if you tell her that I'd
have to hurt ya!"

	"Just go please, I need to talk to her alone."  Jim thought with a
chuckle, "Eddie why don't you take Rodie and go get us some doughnuts for
breakfast.  You can even use my car if you like."  Jim said while seeing
Eddie nod then saw Rodie kiss his mom before slipping out of her lap.

	"Thanks for the offer Jim, but I'm driving my cat today instead of
using your car," Eddie answered as he moved to the stairs.

	"You are driving a cat?"  Rodie asked in a dumbfounded voice while
looking at Eddie then towards Jim.

	"He means his Jaguar Rodie," Jim answered.

	"You have a Jaguar Eddie?  That is so kewl!"  Rodie said in an
excited voice as he moved over to Eddie at the stairs.

	"Yep, sure do surf boy.  So why don't we go see if she feels like
running for awhile," Eddie explained as he guided Rodie down the steps.
Jim heard them leave and waited until he heard Eddie drive away before
turning his attention to Cathy.

	"Would you some more coffee before we talk Jim?"  Cathy asked, then
standing and taking Jim's cup as he nodded in agreement.  Once she returned
with fresh coffee and seated herself Jim looked at her and said in a
serious tone.

	"I am positive Rodie is suffering from PTS syndrome Cathy.  It
would explain his reaction the other day to John, and his increasing
isolation of himself."

	Cathy looked at him and replied, "Yes, I believe you are right Jim,
I don't know if he has told you, but he told me that his father started
sexually molesting him when he was 7 years old.  He never did anything else
other than have anal intercourse with Rodie.  I don't think he fully
realized how much Rodie could sense his thoughts though Jim," Cathy
explained as she sipped her coffee.

	"I see, tell me Cathy, how much do you know about your son's
talents?"  Jim asked her.

	"Well actually quite a bit more than Rodie thinks I know about him
Jim, it seems to be a family trait on my side of the family.  My mother
could do it, and so could her mother as can I, but Rodie is much more
powerful than we are with his abilities.  I can sense Rodie's thoughts like
I could with my mother, and sense other people's feelings if I am close to
them.  The same way my mother and grandmother could do so also," Cathy
explained.  "While Rodie can sense both feelings and thoughts from anyone
he is around.  And his abilities get stronger as he gets older."

	"Did you know he can communicate with someone if he chooses too,"
Jim asked her.

	"He can do that now Jim?  He has advanced farther than I imagined,
and much sooner than I expected," Cathy replied considering this
revelation.

	Jim thought for a long moment then said to Cathy, "I would not say
anything to anyone about this other than to tell Rodie.  It is hard enough
for him to conceal his talents, which is one of the reasons he does not
make or keep friends.  He is young and he slips up when he is comfortable.
It is not enough to give his talents away, but enough to make someone
question him about it.  It frightens him enough to keep himself at a
distance from everyone," Jim concluded to Cathy.  "I also want to ease your
concern about Rodie and myself," Jim said as he watched Cathy.

	"Oh you don't need to do that Jim, what goes on between the both of
you is none of my business," Cathy replied nervously as she looked away and
sipped her coffee.

	"Come on Cathy, do I look like I was born yesterday?"  Jim told
her, "if you did not worry about the sexual aspect of our relationship you
would not be his mother."

	"All right, I admit that anal intercourse worries me, but it is his
decision not mine, I just did not think it would happen so soon is all,"
Cathy explained to Jim.

	"Well it didn't happen Cathy, and it won't for a long time because
he is just too small right now.  He already has scars physically and
mentally from what his father has done to him, which I suspected that he
had been abusing Rodie since he was in preschool.  If I tried to have sex
with him now, it could cause severe and most likely permanent damage to his
anus and rectum.  Although I am not positive about that, so I am leaning on
the side of caution to guide me concerning that.  In addition, the mental
and emotional damage something like that can cause as well.  Therefore, I
promise you that I will be certain that it will not hurt him.  I think it
will be quite awhile before we ever do something like that.  I also have a
different reason for allowing him to bring me this quickly into sex play
with him.  Right now, from what I can judge, Rodie equates what his father
did to him as love and he is very confused because of it.  Moreover, from
what he has told me, his father only performed anal intercourse, as you
just told me, on him while blaming him for making him do it and saying he
only did it because he loved him.  I know that intercourse can be very
enjoyable and satisfying creating a natural desire for it, but Rodie does
not know that nor does he understand that right now.  All he knows is that
he wants it but is afraid of the pain it causes at the same time.  Last
night I could see the desire in him, uh, I do not want to embarrass you but
I do not know any other way to say this Cathy.  Well, when Rodie and I were
in the middle of our foreplay, I touched his anus with my finger and it
sent him into a panic attack.  He did not want me to stop even pleading for
me not to stop, but he also kept begging me not to hurt him as his father
used to hurt him until he was hysterical.  I have never seen a child so
confused about anal intercourse and sex in general before.  He desperately
wanted it, yet was completely terrified of it at the same time," Jim said
as he stared at his cup with tears in his eyes.

	"I see Jim, I can sense how he was as you remember it," Cathy
replied gently.  "I can not do what Rodie is able to do, I can only sense
what you feel as you remember the events of last night.  So what did you do
once he became hysterical?"

	Jim looked at her with new respect because of her understanding of
him and of Rodie.  "It took me well over an hour to calm him down Cathy, I
just kept scooping the warm water of the Jacuzzi on him and held him while
I comforted him.  Once he was calm, I told him what I thought was wrong
with him, about him suffering from PTS.  As I spoke I could see his desire,
and saw how it grew the more relaxed he became until finally he gave into
his desire.  He completely let all of his defenses down, revealing all of
his talents and memories to me while almost begging me to have sex with
him, no matter how painful it would be to him.  I could not do that though,
not without causing more traumas to him that he already has.  So I did the
only thing I could think of," Jim explained quietly.

	"What may have that been Jim?"  Cathy asked already sensing the
answer.

"Uh, well," Jim hesitated as he blushed, "I, um, gave him a blowjob,
performed oral sex on him" Jim admitted embarrassingly, as he looked at his
hands like a schoolchild who had been caught doing something wrong.

	Cathy gave a light little laugh before answering him, "Oh I expect
that it was much more than that Jim, but it is close enough for me to get
the idea."

	Jim had to laugh with her realizing that she knew the truth because
she could sense it in a similar way Rodie could.  He now knew that she had
known about him probably before Rodie had brought her over to meet him.
Sensing something as Jim explained what had occurred between Rodie and him
the night before, Cathy asked him about it once they settled down from
their laughing.

	"So what happened that shocked you but you are not telling me Jim?"
She said as she took another drink from her coffee.

	Thinking back to the previous night, Jim answered, "oh that, well
Rodie is so small and shows no signs of being in puberty yet.  However he
is able to ejaculate which surprised me Cathy."

	"He can?  Really?  Nevertheless, he is just a small boy being only
ten years old.  Do you think I should have a doctor check him over Jim?"
Cathy replied with some concern in her voice.

	"Well if you ask me, Rodie would never forgive you if you took him
to see a doctor because he can cum Cathy, or me for telling you about it.
Once he finds out that I told you about kissing his pee-pee as he says I'm
in trouble."  Jim told her with a smile on his face.

	Smiling at herself for even suggesting the idea, Cathy said, " your
right Jim, I'll inform the doctor quietly next time I take Rodie for his
physical.  Which brings me to what we are going to do with the new school
year after summer is over."  Cathy asked as she looked at Jim.

	"I do not know Cathy, but we have two months to figure it out
together.  Let us just get him settled in here and we can deal with these
problems then ok.  I do want to ask you something now that I know you have
some of the same talent Rodie has.  Can he read your thoughts like he can
everyone else's Cathy?"  Jim asked her.

	"No, I do not believe he can Jim, he can shield his thoughts from
me as I can from him.  However if he could, I think he would not try to
read my thoughts without my knowledge or approval.  He just senses my
feelings is all; he does that unconsciously to everyone.  And I agree, let
us get us moved and settled before contemplating future problems," Cathy
explained just as they both heard the garage door opening.

	"Ok what did you two say about me?"  Rodie asked as he came up the
steps carrying a box of doughnuts.

	"You will have to ask your mother Rodie," Jim answered him.  Then
seeing Rodie's head tilt as he stared at Jim, Jim quickly pictured the
image of a cinder block and saw Rodie frown at him.  "Oh no you don't, I
will think about that block all day if you try that again.  Remember that
you said you wouldn't do that also," Jim said to Rodie who looked downward
at his feet as if he was being scolded.

	"I'm sorry Jim, I promise not to do that without your permission, I
guess it is sort of a habit now."  Rodie said as he put the box on the
coffee table and then stood in front of Jim looking apologetic.

	"Come here beautiful," Jim said holding his arms open as Rodie
quickly climbed into his lap and hugged him.  Rodie then kissed Jim on the
lips then rubbed his nose against Jim's as he smiled happily.  "You have me
wrapped around your finger you know that don't you," Jim said to the
smiling imp he was holding in his arms.

	"I know, but you love me anyway right," Rodie asked with a devilish
grin on his small face.  They all laughed at that as Cathy got them more
coffee and a glass of milk for Rodie.

	"What no coffee for you surf boy?"  Eddie asked him seeing the milk
mustache on his face.

	"I like my doughnuts and cookies with milk is all," Rodie answered
him as he selected a maple-iced doughnut and smiling shyly at Eddie as he
blushed.  Watching both of them and of Rodie's reaction, Jim was suspicious
immediately as to what went on while they went to get the doughnuts.  Eddie
saw Jim watching him and smiled before winking at him as he bit into a
Boston creme doughnut.

	"Alright Rodie, this is what I was thinking we would do.  We get
our things packed and stowed away and leave first thing in the morning.  No
keeping him up late, you hear me Jim."  Cathy said looking sternly at Jim
then around the room.  There was a moment of silence before Eddie, Jim, and
Rodie started laughing together.  Cathy looked at them all with an
irritated look.

	"What is it with you three?"  Cathy demanded at them.

	"Hahahaha...ummm...mom...there is some sugar on your face."  Rodie
said trying to keep a straight face but failing horribly.  Cathy touched
her face on the corner of her mouth, then seeing the white powder on her
fingers.  She raised the napkin to her mouth and started to laugh at
herself.

	"Jesus, I must look like a clown to all of you," Cathy exclaimed as
she wiped her face as she laughed with them.  Rodie sat his doughnut and
milk down and went over sitting beside her.

	"I love you mom," he said as he reached up and gently wiped a spot
she had missed with his napkin.  Cathy reached out and hugged him tightly
while she kissed his forehead.

	"I love you too baby.  I always will love you no matter what
happens.  I am so proud of you, you do know that don't you honey," Cathy
told Rodie with love and tenderness in her voice.  Rodie gladly accepted
his mothers affections not being embarrassed by it like other boys.  Cathy
held him for a while longer then looked into his soft green and gold eyes.

	"Look, I really don't need you to help me pack up everything ok.
Why don't you spend the time with Jim because you only have what is left of
today and tonight.  I hope that we will only be gone for a week or two at
the most, but I can not promise that to you.  I know it will be hard for
both of you, but say your good-byes and be ready to go in the morning ok."
Cathy said to Rodie and Jim.

	"Ok mom, I will be ready in the morning," Rodie told her softly.
Cathy then said goodbye to Eddie and headed towards the kitchen when Rodie
suddenly called out "Mom!" and she stopped.  Running over to her and
jumping into her arms while tears ran down his face, he hugged her
fiercely.

	"Thanks mom...I love you so much."  Rodie said to her in her mind,
the first time that he had ever done that with her.

	"I know you do honey, and you are my life sweetie.  I will do
anything to make you happy, and Jim makes you happy.  So go and be happy
Rodie because you deserve to be," Cathy thought back to him, feeling his
surprise when she did.  Cathy then kissed him again and set him on his feet
before wiping his tears away.  She then turned and left the house as Rodie
watched until she was gone.  Rodie then turned and walked to Jim, who
looked at him with understanding in his eyes, he then held open his arms as
Rodie climbed up into his lap and laid his head onto Jim's chest.

	"I am going to go help Cathy Jim, if you need me call my cell ok
Bro," Eddie said.  He then got up and patted Jim on the shoulder and said,
"See you in a two weeks surf boy."

	"Bye Eddie, thanks for helping mom ok," Rodie replied quietly.
Rodie then watched the tall blond man that he now considered a friend as he
left.  Once Eddie was gone, Rodie snuggled with Jim and thought about
everything.

	As he was thinking Jim said, "a penny for your thoughts my love."

	"I was just thinking how everything is changing now.  Mom is doing
all of this for me isn't she?  And I don't know if she should Jim," Rodie
replied softly to Jim.

	"Yes she is doing all of this for you, but for herself also Rodie.
She is your mother, and it hurts her just as much when she sees you so
alone, frightened, and unhappy.  She is doing only what any other mother
would do for their child's well being and happiness.  She can see that we
need each other, but do not worry about her.  Because I believe she will be
much happier now also, you wait and see."  Jim explained to Rodie as he
softly rubbed his back and arms.

	"What about tomorrow Jim?  I have to go home so mom can take care
of things there.  She don't know how long it is going to take."  Rodie said
in a soft voice as he leaned against Jim.

	"I know, but don't worry, your mom will do everything as fast as
she can so both of you can return.  Just think of what has to be done
though.  She has to get her business matters organized, then she has to
pack all of your belongings and put them in storage for now until you both
can be settled here.  Finally she has to decide what to do with the house
too, and she is going to need you to help her Rodie.  At the very least,
you are going to have to be her support so she can get everything done,"
Jim explained as he rocked gently back and forth in the recliner.

	I know Jim...and I know it is selfish of me, but...I don't want to
leave you," Rodie said as he sat up looking at Jim's face.

	"I know, I don't want to be without you either, but let's worry
about that later ok," Jim told him as he smiled as Rodie straddled Jim's
lap.  He then put his small arms around Jim's neck and kissed him softly.
His small tongue questing for Jim's until he found it.  Jim slid his hands
up under Rodie's shirt and gently ran his thumbs over Rodie's tiny nipples
causing Rodie to breathe in sharply breaking the kiss.

	"So what do you want to do surf boy?"  Jim asked Rodie.

	Smiling shyly and blushing slightly Rodie replied with a naughty
giggle, "let's go back to bed."  In response to Rodie's request, Jim stood
up with Rodie in his arms, then walked back into his bedroom and closing
the door.
