Subject: DOUG'S DILEMMA 8

Disclaimer: I'm not going to say this never happened. I'll bet it did
sometime - maybe more than once. But I wasn't part of it so I don't know.
This is just to let you know that this is a STORY! It came from my
imagination. The fact that my imagination seems to be oftentimes way south
of my belly-button just is the way things are.

By the way, this story is dedicated to Wil. Thanks for letting me watch you
grow.

Anyway, here's a little story about a boy who suddenly has to face some
things about himself that he never realized or understood. It's all....

DOUG'S DILEMMA
Part 8
by RimPig   2003

I cried myself to sleep, exhausted by not just my emotions but from Ty and
I making love to each other before he left. I just kind of 'conked out'
face down on the bed, leaving the lights on and everything - not even
bothering to take my clothes off or get under the covers. That's how my Dad
found me when he came down to say good-night. I woke up when I felt him sit
down on the bed and his hand rest on my back. I was startled awake and
looked around, hoping it was Ty come back to sleep with me again, but it
was Dad. Though I tried to hide it, he had to have seen the look of
disappointment on my face when I realized it was him and not Ty.

"No, son. It's just me." he said quietly. "Why don't you take your clothes
off and get into bed."

I wiped off my face with the back of my hand. Dad had to have seen my eyes
so red and know that I'd been crying. I stripped off my clothes, not even
realizing that I was naked in front of Dad.  It had been a long time since
he'd seen me that way.

"You've grown up quite impressively, son!" he said, smiling as he looked at
me.

I blushed.

"Thanks, Dad. I don't know whether I'm a man yet or not." I said.

"Well, I'd say you are. Off to college soon. Maybe to the Olympics. You're
gonna have all the things that I never had." Dad said wistfully.

"You have a lot, Dad." I said, sitting down on the bed next to him.

"Yeah. I do. Five good sons and a wife that I love. Love is a wonderful
thing, isn't it, Doug?" he asked.

Something about the question struck me funny, almost like Dad was trying to
tell me something.

"Uhh. Yeah, I guess it is." I said.

"Course it can hurt, too. Especially when you can't be with the one you
love." he said quietly.

I just looked at him, speechless.

"You do love him a lot, don't you? Ty, I mean." Dad said softly.

I didn't know what to say! How the fuck had Dad figured this out?!

"Uhh...why...why do you say that?" I mumbled.

"Doug, I could see the way that the two of you look at each other. It's
obvious to anyone that knows you that you're deeply in love with him and,
unless I miss my guess, he's deeply in love with you." Dad said.

I hung my head.

"I'm sorry, Dad." I apologized.

"What the hell for?" Dad asked.

"For being a disappointment to you." I said quietly.

"What makes you think you are? Just because you're in love with Ty?" Dad
asked.

I looked up at him, on the verge of tears again.

"Doug, we don't choose who we love. It just happens. If you and Ty love
each other and make each other happy, that's all I could ask for." Dad
said.

"Dad, do you mean that? I mean, you're not angry that I'm...uhh...that
I'm..." I sputtered.

"That you're 'gay'? No, Doug, I'm not angry with you any more than I can be
angry that you have blue eyes, son. People don't decide to be gay. You were
born that way. Though you did have me fooled with Paula for a while but I
figured out that there was nothing more than friendship there finally." Dad
said.

"But you were afraid I was fucking her." I said.

"Well, Doug, friends do fuck around. Hell, I did when I was your age and
younger." Dad said.

"You fucked other girls other than Mom?" I asked.

"Well...no. It was other guys I fucked around with. Guys on the football
team. We used to get our rocks off together. No big thing. Just messin'
around, havin' fun." Dad grinned.

"That's not what it is for Ty and me." I said.

"No, son. I know that. Did you ever mess around with other boys?" Dad
asked.

"No. Ty is the first guy, actually the first sex, I've ever had. I was too
afraid to do anything with anyone else. I didn't want to get a reputation."
I said.

"Yeah, that can be rough. I know that's why it was other guys on the
football team that I messed around with. Most of them were the same
way. Only other guys on the team. That way, none of us dared to squeal on
the others." Dad grinned. "So what happened. Why Ty? Why this weekend?"

"It was incredible, Dad! Ty was so gentle and loving with me. I knew I
wanted him almost from the moment I first saw him! I had no idea that it
would happen, though. What I didn't know is that Ty had already seen me and
wanted me!" I told him.

"How had he seen you?" Dad asked, confused.

"The tapes of me wrestling that Coach Reston had sent up. Ty had borrowed
them from Coach Fallon and watched them." I said, not mentioning that Ty
had also jacked off to them!

"So it was like 'love at first sight' for you two?" Dad asked.

"Yeah, I guess you could say that." I said quietly, wondering if Dad could
truly understand that.

"It was like that for me and your Mom, too. The minute I laid eyes on her,
I just knew that she was the one I wanted. She claims she saw me first, but
I don't think so! But it doesn't matter because she says she felt exactly
the same way." Dad grinned at me and I grinned back. Yes, he could
understand! "Does Coach Fallon know about...well, about you and Ty." he
asked.

"Yeah, Dad. He does. And he doesn't care. As Ty told me, all Coach cares
about is what you do out on the mats. He's not interested in who you sleep
with." I said.

"Speaking of sleep, I guess it's about time you got some, huh?" Dad asked.

I looked down at my empty bed, remembering how it had been filled with Ty
the night before.

"Yeah. I guess I should. I don't know if I'll be able to, though." I said
quietly.

Dad reached out and hugged me to him, gently kissing me on the cheek.

"I know you're gonna miss him. But it won't be too long before you'll be
with him all the time."  Dad said.

"I know, Dad. It just seems like forever." I said, dejectedly.

"Well, what about going to see him?" Dad asked.

"What about it? He wants me to come back up next weekend. I told him I'd
ask you and Mom if I could. Can I?" I asked.

"I don't see why not. And then the next weekend, you have him come down
here. And, don't forget! Your graduation is coming up. I'm sure you'll want
him here for that, won't you?" Dad asked.

I pulled back from Dad's embrace and stared at him in wonder. I couldn't
believe how easily he was taking all of this!

"Dad, you are the most wonderful father in the entire world! Do you know
that?!" I said.

"No, Doug. I'm not. I'm just a guy who loves his son - very, very much and
a guy who wants nothing more than to see his son happy. Does he make you
happy, Doug?" Dad asked.

"Oh, yeah! He makes me incredibly happy, Daddy!" I said, throwing myself
into Dad's arms again.

It wasn't until later, after Dad had gone upstairs after 'tucking me in'
for the night, that I realized that I had called him 'Daddy' - a name I had
stopped calling him years ago. I realized then that, no matter how old I
got, no matter how much I grew and changed, there would always be a part of
me that would be 'Daddy's little boy'. A part of me that would always
belong to my Dad.

The next morning, I got on the computer first thing and sent an e-mail to
Ty telling him all about the conversation with Dad and that I would be
coming up again for the weekend. I figured that he would probably have the
same shocked reaction that I had to what had happened.

I went through school that day in a kind of daze. A lot of guys on the team
had been really impressed by Ty (as well they should be!) and some of them
even expressed their envy to me of my friendship with such an incredible
athlete. They were even more envious when I casually mentioned that I would
be heading up to the University to spend another weekend with Ty on Friday.

When I got home that afternoon, I went down to my room and turned on the
computer. There was an e-mail from Ty, expressing his surprise at my
conversation with Dad but also saying how much he really liked my Dad. That
made me especially happy because I could tell how much Dad liked Ty. It was
great to know that the two most important men in my life liked each
other. He also said he had a surprise for me this weekend but told me not
to ask what it was. He would tell me when I got there. He had already
checked both the train and bus schedules and found out that there was a bus
that left right after school on Friday and got me to the state capitol
quicker than the train would. It was also cheaper. He told me when the bus
left and told me he would meet me at the terminal when it arrived.

Mom got home early that day. I think she planned it because she was no more
in the house than she was telling my four brothers to get to their rooms
and do their homework. She said she wanted to talk to me and we went
downstairs to my room. I sat down on the bed and she sat next to me, almost
where Dad had sat the night before.

"Doug, I know about the conversation that you and your Dad had last
night. I want you to know that what your Dad says goes for both of us. I'm
very happy that you've met Ty. He seems like a very nice boy and it appears
he is very much in love with you. I don't have to ask how you feel about
him. I can see it in your eyes, every time you look at him." she smiled.

I was blushing again!

"Now, I understand you're planning on going up to the University to be with
him this weekend. I know your Dad told you to invite him down here the
following weekend. I want you to know, sweetie, that Ty is welcome here
anytime." Mom said.

"Thanks, Mom! You're the greatest!" I said, putting my arms around her and
hugging her.

She hugged me back but then sat back.

"There's one thing that I do need to talk to you about, however, and that's
your brothers." Mom said.

"What about them?" I asked.

"I don't know what you've told them already, but your Dad and I feel that
it would be better if you didn't talk to them about any of this. At least
not for now. We both feel they're a little young to be dealing with this."
Mom said.

My next oldest brother, David, was only 13. The other three were; Danny -
who was 12, Derek - who was 10 and little Denny (or "Dennis the Menace" as
I often called him!) who was only 8.

"Don't worry, Mom. I haven't told them a thing and don't intend to! First
of all, I agree with you that they're way too young to understand. More
importantly, I don't want them knowing what's going on in my personal life
- even if they are my brothers!" I assured her.

"I kind of figured that, but I wanted to make sure. Understand, please,
Doug! Your Dad and I are not in any way ashamed of you or the fact that
you're gay! Nor are we ashamed of your relationship with Ty. We just don't
think that your brothers are really old enough to understand all of this
yet." Mom said.

"Don't worry, Mom. I promise that Ty and I won't suck face in front of the
brats!" I laughed.

"Douglas! That's no way to talk about your brothers! Even if they can be
brats at times!" Mom laughed. "Don't forget, you were not always the
perfect child either!"

"Ahh, Mom! How can you say that! I was always a little angel!" I mugged at
her, talking in a baby voice.

Mom cracked up laughing and reached over and hugged me.

"I love you so much, sweetie. I hate the fact that I'm losing you. But I
know that you and Ty are going to be happy together. Actually, I'll tell
you a secret, but you are NEVER to tell this to anybody!" Mom said.

"I promise!" I swore to her.

"I'm much rather lose you to a cute and sweet boy like Ty than to a girl. I
can just imagine what I'm going to have to go through with your brothers
when they start dating!" she giggled.

"Yeah, I don't envy you, Mom. And I promise I won't tell anybody -
especially not Dad. I don't know how he'd deal with the fact that you think
my lover is cute!" I laughed.

"Yes. I don't think that's something that your father ever needs to know!"
she grinned. "Don't get me wrong, Doug. Your Dad was just as cute when he
was Ty's age. By the way, how old is Ty?" Mom asked.

"He's just turning 20." I told her.

"And you just turned 18 so there's a nice, close difference in your ages."
she said.

"Yeah, but there's something better than that, Mom." I said.

She looked at me like she was afraid of what I was going to say next.

"And that is?" she asked, trepidation showing in her voice.

"He's just as honorable and trustworthy a man as Dad is." I said.

She looked at me for a moment and then a softness came into her eyes.

"Your Dad is that, isn't he. Honorable and Trustworthy." she said
wistfully.

"I'm just happy I found a guy who is like him." I said.

"So it is true!" Mom said in wonder.

"What's true?" I asked.

"Well, I kind of wondered. They say that little boys often marry women like
their mothers and little girls often marry men like their fathers. I
wondered if gay boys married guys like their fathers as well." Mom said.

"Well, I couldn't tell you whether that's true or not in all cases - or
even most cases. I know it's true for me because I really love Dad and I
guess I do judge every other guy by him." I said.

Mom hugged me again.

"There isn't a better man on the face of the earth to judge by than your
father, Doug." she said.

"I agree, Mom. I agree." I said, hugging her back.

I thought that the week would drag, what with my anticipation of seeing Ty
again, but instead it was Friday, almost before I knew it. I carried a
backpack to school that day, filled with what I would need for the weekend
and since the bus station was not that far from the high school, I caught a
ride with one of the other squad members who had a car. I bought my ticket
one-way as Ty had told me that since he didn't have classes until Monday
afternoon, he'd drive me home again, spending the night before heading back
to the University on Monday.

Ty had been right. The bus trip took much less time than the train and when
I got off the bus, there he was, leaning against the wall outside the bus
terminal, waiting for me. He grabbed me in his arms and hugged me.

"I have missed you so much! I must have jacked off four or five times a day
thinking about you!"  he whispered in my ear as he held me.

"Me, too!" I murmured.

"Come on. Let's get going." Ty said.

We got into his Jeep and headed back to campus. We didn't talk, there
wasn't any need to. We were both just basking in the warmth of being
together again. However, this time, his hand was resting on my knee again -
not on the gear-shift. We ran up the stairs to his dorm room. I didn't
figure that Ty was all that excited until I noticed how he fumbled with the
key trying to unlock his dorm room - nearly dropping it! He smiled
sheepishly at me as he finally got the door open. I went inside and heard
the door slam behind me. Almost at the same time, I felt Ty's arms around
me and his mouth, licking and sucking at my neck.

I turned in his arms and we kissed passionately. We quickly stripped each
other and fell onto the bed together. He rolled over on top of me and
raised my arms over my head so that he could bury his face in my ripe
pits. I moaned at the feeling of his tongue and mouth, licking and sucking
at the tender underarm skin. He kissed me again passionately, allowing me
to taste my own funk and then moved down to my chest, taking first one and
then the other nipple into his mouth and sucking on them until they
hardened into dark rose cones. My hands were busy, stroking his head and
shoulders, feeling the strength and the warmth of him.

He moved down my body, avoiding my cock entirely but snorting and licking
at my ball-sack as he pushed my legs apart to bury his face in the 'Y' of
my body. I knew what he wanted because it was what I wanted so badly! I
grabbed under my knees and lifted my legs, pulling them back to give him
total access to my ass-trench. I could hear him moan as my ass-scent rose
to his nose. I was the one moaning when I felt his tongue begin its travels
up and down my cleft. When his tongue and lips began attacking my hole,
however, I couldn't take any more!

"Fuck me! Please! Fuck me, Ty!" I begged softly.

These were the first words either of us had said since leaving the bus
station.

"Oh, yeah! I'm gonna fuck you! I'm gonna fuck you all weekend!" Ty
promised, looking up grinning from between my legs. "When I take you home,
I may have to carry you out of the Jeep because you won't be able to walk!
But, then again, maybe I won't be able to either!"

I laughed at him, so eager, so sexy, so hot!

He got up off the bed and got the lube from the drawer of the night table
and then got back between my spread legs. He greased up my hole with the
lube, quickly working three fingers inside of me. I had been afraid after a
week of not being fucked by him that I might have trouble opening up but my
ass seemed to remember clearly how to get Ty's cock back up it! Ty then
lubed himself and leaned over me, putting his body between my legs.

"Wrap your legs around my waist." he husked as he brought his cock-head in
contact with my wrinkled hole.

I did as he told me and he rested on his elbows. This brought his body much
closer to mine than any of the other positions we had tried. His mouth came
down on mine and his hips began to press his cock against my hole at the
same time. As we kissed, I could feel his cock slowly filling me up and I
moaned into his mouth at the pleasure it gave me to have him inside of me
again. My arms were wrapped around his neck and we lay there tasting each
other as he let his cock soak in my hole until he could feel that I was
sufficiently used to him before he began fucking me.

He pulled back and I moaned as his cock slid across my prostate, sending
chills of desire through me! He slid back in, moaning into my mouth as his
cock felt the tightness of my ass surrounding him.

"Oh fuck! I love your butt!" Ty said, looking down into my eyes.

"Just my butt?" I smiled.

"No, not just your butt. All of you! I can't believe that you're finally
here with me! I didn't think I'd miss you so badly! Coach has been yelling
at me all week because I can't concentrate during practice! All I can think
about is you!" Ty murmured to me.

"I've missed as well! Every night, laying in bed, all I could think about
was you! How much I wanted you laying next to me, holding me!" I swore. "I
dreamed of you fucking me. Please, don't stop, Ty. Fuck me!"

"You've got it, babe!" he grinned.

His hips started moving again -stronger, harder - until he was ramming my
ass with what felt like every bit of his raw, male power! He plunged into
me, driving us both into a frenzy. This wasn't making love - this was
all-out fucking! We needed to get past this initial hunger for each other,
our need to release our seed with each other so that we could make love to
each other.

Harder and harder, faster and faster he drove into my hole, his cock
sliding against my prostate with every movement. I knew I couldn't last. I
knew that it was only a matter of moments. I moaned deeply as I felt myself
going over the top!

"Fuck! Ty! I'm gonna cum!" I moaned.

"Yeah, babe! Cum for me! Cum just for me!" he moaned back, looking into my
face, seeing the naked hunger there.

The look on his face was one of power! He knew it was his cock, his body
that was making me cum! He knew that it was all him! I hadn't touched my
cock. Only the relentless slamming of his cock up my butt-chute was making
me lose it!

"Ohhh! FUCK!!!" I screamed as my load shot out between us, spraying our
chest and abs.

Each slamming of his cock up my butt shot more and more of my load out of
my cock. Then I felt it! His rhythm went to hell and he moaned out as he
cock began to batter my hole.

"Fuck! I'm cummin'! I'm cummin' up your ass!" he groaned and I could feel
his cock spasm inside me as he dumped his load of cum deep up my ass!

We trembled together in the mind-blowing, body-exhausting orgasm that we
shared until Ty collapsed on me and grasp my body in his arms. My legs
wrapped tightly around his waist and my arms around his neck. It was like
we never wanted to let the other one go! I buried my face in his shoulder
and suddenly felt something inside me let go and I was crying! Crying in
his arms! It was like all the pain of missing him, all the loneliness of
being without him suddenly was released from my body.

"Babe, what's the matter? What's wrong?" he murmured to me, deep concern in
his voice. "Did I hurt you?"

"No! I just missed you so much! I haven't cried since the first night you
left but it's just that, being here in your arms again, all of the pain
just came out!" I said.

"That's okay, babe. I'm here. You're with me again. Let it all out." he
murmured and pulled me tighter to him.

My tears ended and he kissed them away, actually licking them from my
cheeks.

"I love you so much, Ty!" I moaned.

"I know you do, babe. You know how much I love you, don'tcha?" he asked.

"Yeah. I do. I just hate being away from you so much!" I said.

"I know, but it's only for a little while. I promise! And then you sleep in
my arms every night for the rest of our lives!" he said kissing me
passionately.

I finally calmed down and he slowly slid down my body, pulling his cock
from my just-fucked hole. I raised my legs and he locked his mouth to my
hole, licking and soothing the opening while sucking his load from my
ass. Crawling back up beside me in the bed, he pulled me to him and deeply
kissed me, sharing his load from my ass with me. We fell asleep for a while
in each other's arms. When we finally awoke, it was dark outside but the
clock said it was only a little after 8.

"How about pizza and we rent a movie?" Ty asked.

"How about pizza and no movie." I said. "I just want to be with you."

"Even better idea!" he smiled.

This time, we didn't go to the pizza place, Ty called for delivery. We lay
in each other's arms waiting for it to arrive.

"Okay, so what's my surprise?" I asked.

"Well, actually, there are two of them." Ty grinned.

He sat up in bed and turned his back to me. There, on his upper right
shoulder the tattoo of a Ram! My zodiac sign which I could look at whenever
I fucked him from behind, letting me know how much he loved me. I ran my
fingers over it and kissed it gently. He looked over his shoulder, grinning
at me.

"Cool, huh?!" he asked.

"Very cool!" I said.

"We're getting you one tomorrow, if you still want it, that is." he said.

"Oh, yes! I want it!" I grinned.

He turned back around and sat there cross-legged grinning at me.

"Now, for the second surprise. Coach got you a job." he said.

"Coach got me a job? Where? Doing what?" I asked.

"Right here on campus! At the campus bookstore! The guy who runs it is an
alumnus and wrestled when he was here at the university. The job pays very
well - way beyond minimum wage because they have to follow the salary
structure of the university. Getting a job there is usually very hard but
one of the wrestlers that worked there is graduating and so Coach got the
guy to hold the job for you!" Ty said.

"That's great Ty." I said, not especially enthusiastically.

I mean, yeah! I needed a job! My scholarship alone wasn't going to make
it. I still needed to buy books and have money to live on but this wasn't
the type of 'surprise' that I thought Ty meant. I could see him grinning at
me and finally figured out that something was up. There was something he
hadn't told me yet.

"Okay, what else is there?" I asked.

"Well, it's just that you really don't understand about the job. You see,
the guy who had it is graduating!" Ty said.

"Yeah?" I asked.

"Don't you get it? Graduation is in June! You need to take over the job
THEN!" he grinned at me.

It took a moment for it to sink in but I finally got it!

"IN JUNE!!!" I screamed, throwing myself into his arms.

He hugged me tightly to him.

"Yeah, babe! June! Not August! In fact as soon after you graduate as you
can get your butt here!"  He said.

"How about you drive me back here the next day! Mom and Dad want you to
come to my graduation anyway." I said, grinning at him.

"They do!? Fuck!" he gasped in amazement.

"Yep! As far as they're concerned, you're a member of the family now! It's
all arranged. We got an extra ticket for you already and everything! You
have to come! Then we can drive back here the next day!" I grinned.

"Your...your Mom and Dad think that I'm 'family' now?!" he said, his voice
filled with wonder.

"Yeah, my Mom even thinks you're cute!" I laughed.

"Fuck!" he grinned.

But I had a sudden throught.

"Ty, how can I move here in June. My scholarship doesn't start until
August!" I asked.

"Oh, that's not a problem. Coach arranged for you to have housing until
your scholarship starts.  You won't have meals, but food in the cafeteria
is really cheap. With your job, you won't have any trouble handling things
until the scholarship kicks in. Plus, working in the campus bookstore,
you'll get a discount on all your books!" he said.

"Where did Coach arrange for me to have housing?" I asked.

Ty didn't say anything, he just got up from the bed and walked over to his
dresser. He came back with a very small box, like a jewelry box and handed
it to me.

"I was gonna give this to you later, but now is as good a time as any." he
said.

I opened the box and there lay a key ring with two keys on it and a silver
medallion with a Ram on it. I looked at Ty questioningly.

"The one key fits this door." he said, pointing to the door to his
room. "The other fits the Jeep."

I looked at him in wonder!

"I rooming with you? Here?" I asked, almost unable to believe it.

"Where else would you room?" he grinned. "Think you can get used to the
double bed?"

I laughed. We'd slept together like we'd done it all our lives, right from
the first night.

"I don't want to be anywhere else but with you!" I said. "But, Ty! A key to
your Jeep?"

"To OUR Jeep, babe. There is no more mine and yours. There's just 'ours'."
he said softly, taking me in his arms and kissing me deeply.

The rest of the weekend, except for when we went and got my upper right
shoulder tattooed with a small lion - the symbol of Leo and my personal
symbol of my love for Ty - we never really left the dorm room. Actually, we
hardly left the bed, making love to each other over and over again.
Finally, on Sunday afternoon, Ty and I left the campus in his Jeep and
headed back to my home.  Mom and Dad were thrilled to see us and had
already given dinner to my four brothers so that it was just the four of us
who sat down to dinner that night.

Ty told them about the job and my need to move to campus as soon after
graduation as I could.  Mom and Dad looked at each other and I could see
them winking at each other.

"I take it that you had something to do with getting Doug this job, Ty?"
Dad asked, smiling.

"Well...I did mention to Coach that the job was coming open and that Doug
could sure use it..."  Ty admitted.

I had figured he'd arranged the whole thing and now I knew I was right. Dad
laughed at Ty's admission.

"I take it you couldn't wait for Doug to get there in August. I don't blame
you. I understand what it's like to be young and in love." Dad said to Ty
and then his eyes drifted over to Mom and he smiled.

So there it was, out in the open - the 'L' word. I wasn't surprised but I
could see the look on Ty's face. But Mom and Dad were obviously comfortable
with us being a couple. They shooed us off to my room soon after. I'm sure
they knew that we wanted to be alone and why. When we got downstairs, Ty
sat down on the bed and just kind of hung his head. I sat next to him and
put my arm around his shoulders.

"What's the matter?" I asked.

"Doug, I've got to tell you something. There's no chance that you and I
will ever be welcomed into my parents home like this. I haven't been home
in two years. I have no contact with my parents at all. Basically, my
father has disowned me." he said quietly and I could see tears starting to
form in his eyes.

"Why?" I asked.

"Because I was stupid enough to be honest with him. I told him about my
being Gay. I told him about Paul. He threw me out, saying he didn't want a
'faggot' as a son. If it hadn't been for the scholarship and Coach, I'd
have had no place to go. I'm sorry. I should have told you. I didn't know
how your parents were going to react. I can't even begin to tell you how
much their acceptance means to me. Oh, I would have loved you without
that. But they're being more accepting than I had any right to expect!" Ty
said, looking at me.

"I know. It kind of blows me away, too! But, looking back, I've never had
any doubt that they loved me. They never asked me to be anything other than
myself. They loved me - not some idea of who they thought I should be." I
said.

"Do you know how lucky you are?" Ty asked.

"I'm sitting here, looking at you in my bed. Of course I know how lucky I
am!" I grinned.

That was the end of talking for that night. We made love for several hours
and I was exhausted when I woke in the morning. Of course that didn't stop
Ty and I from making love that morning either! He left after breakfast and
this time, it wasn't so hard. I knew he'd be back Friday night.

He did come to my graduation. In fact, he came two days before it and
helped me pack for my move to our room at the university. When I walked
across the stage to receive my diploma, the entire wrestling squad rose to
cheer. But when I walked down the steps on the other side of the stage -
there was Ty waiting for me with my Mom and Dad. Ty reached out his arms
and I flew into them! Dad got this great picture of me in Ty's arms and our
mouths locked in a deep kiss! I think it might have shocked a lot of people
who saw it happen, but I didn't care anymore!

The next morning, Mom and Dad had breakfast with us and then saw us off. I
heard my Dad say talking to Ty as we sat in the Jeep, getting ready to
leave.

"Now you take good care of my son, mister, or you'll have me to answer to."
Dad said, but with a grin.

"I promise, sir! I will take very good care of your son!" Ty grinned at
Dad.

"Ahh...Ty...drop the 'sir'. Why don't you just call me 'Dad'?" My Dad said
quietly.

I saw Ty look at him and I didn't know if Ty was going to smile or cry. I
don' t think he did either! But he finally grinned and said.

"Thanks, Dad!"

My Dad took Ty into his arms and they hugged. Then Dad kissed Ty gently on
the forehead before coming around to my side and hugging me and kissing me
on the forehead as well.

"You be good to him, Doug. He loves you and he's a good man." Dad said
quietly.

"I know that, Dad. I only fell in love with him because he reminds me so
much of you!" I smiled.

Dad looked at me with shock on his face! I guess he never quite figured
that one! He grinned though and hugged me again. In the mean time, Mom had
hugged and kissed Ty and told him to also call her 'Mom'. She then came to
my side of the Jeep.

"Are you happy, sweetie?" she asked.

"Happier than I've ever been in my life, Mom." I said honestly.

"Take care of yourself - and Ty." she smiled.

"Don't worry, Mom. I will." I said and then she hugged me a kissed me on
the cheek.

"You ready, babe?" Ty asked, reaching over and putting his hand on mine.

"Ready." I said, smiling at him.

We waved good-bye and Ty headed the Jeep back in the direction of the
university and our new life together!
