I opened the door. "Yeah, it's just Scott!" I yelled back.

"Couldn't wait, could ya?" Kris yelled.

"No, we couldn't," Ted said loudly in his deep voice.

Kris whipped his head around and quickly got up. "Oh my fucking God!"

Behind Ted were Luke, Myles and surprisingly Reese. Ted was wearing a white
tee and shorts while Luke was wearing a grey Charger tee. Myles and Reese
had on Cowboy t-shirts. Colt and Corey followed Kris to shake their hands
and get big bear hugs.

"I hope you don't mind but Reese showed up at the last minute and wanted to
come," Ted said.

"You know I don't mind at all," I said and gave Reese a big hug. Reese was
looking great and was very dark.

"Y'all hang on just minute. I got stuff out in my ride for all of y'all,"
Ted said.

"Ted went and showed off with this ride of his," Myles stated. I peered out
and saw a new Chevy Avalanche that was white and had really nice wheels.

"Damn Ted, how much jack did they give you?" Colt asked while we went out
to see his new vehicle.

"Enough," Ted replied with a big smile.

"He got my dad one, too," Reese said.

"I had to take care of my brother," Ted said and brought out a box. He
carried it inside. We followed him. He started tossing Cowboy tees and hats
to all of us with plenty left for everyone else.

"He's showing off now. Just wait. I'll bring my shit next time," Luke said.

Next Ted reached inside and handed each of us a small box. "Just a little
something to show my appreciation."

I opened my box to see a nice watch. Tears began welling up in my
eyes. "Ted, you shouldn't have."

"I wanted to," Ted said. "I've been waiting for the right moment to give
these to the ones who have meant so much to me."

I got up and gave him a big hug while Kris, Colt and Corey stared at their
watches. "I hate to see what you got them."

"I didn't get shit," Luke laughed.

"Like I said, I take care of those who deserve it. Just keep it between us,
okay?" Ted stated.

"Myles, what'd you get?" Colt asked.

Myles looked at Ted and smiled. "He said he always wanted an iPad so I got
him one. Luke got one too," Ted replied.

"Damn!" Kris said.

"Teddy got me a used car, but it is really nice," Reese said.

"So where's everyone else?" Luke asked. "Ted called Matt and he said
everyone was here."

"Matt, you asshole!" Kris yelled.

"No, I told him I wanted to surprise y'all," Ted said.

"Ted, you fucking asshole," Colt said and laughed. "Alright, we wanna hear
all about the pro life now."

"It's not easy let me tell ya," Ted said. "I work ten times harder than I
did in college. There are some fucking beasts in the league."

"Right now I just hope I make the team. Hell, I have an All Pro ahead of
me," Luke said.

"How is San Diego?" Corey asked.

"Lots of people and even more traffic," Luke replied. "The weather is
paradise though."

"When did you come in?" I asked.

"He came Monday and is staying with me. Myles drove in last night," Ted
said.

"Ted, you asshole. Everyone was here last night. You should have called,"
Kris said.

"Hey Reese, wait til ya hear the big news," I said.

"Thanks Matt," Colt said. "Chase is gonna be a daddy."

"Damn!" Reese said with his mouth wide open. "Who did he knock up?"

"I don't know her name. He barely does," Colt replied.

"That sucks," Reese said as there was a knock at our door. I knew for
certain Kris and Colt were here since this rarely happened. Colt went to
the door with Scott and Jordy standing there.

"Who's ride is that out there?" Scott asked.

Ted turned his head, "That would be mine."

"Here again, I get the fucking leftovers," Scott said and signed to Jordy.

"You do. Ted brought us all kinds of shirts and hats," I said.

Ted tossed them a shirt and hat a piece before he and the others gave them
a big hug. Jordy put the hat on his head and signed how he loved it.

"Where's the rest of them?" Corey asked.

"Everyone's at the pool," Scott replied. "I don't guess you'll be coming
since the big stars are here."

"Let's go then," Ted said.

We got up and headed to the pool. As we were walking Reese grabbed me by
the arm and pulled me aside. "Later, I need to talk to you."

"Bad?" I asked.

"Not bad, I just need some advice," Reese replied.

"Where's Latham this weekend? I'm sorry I didn't ask about him earlier."

"He's with his family this weekend," Reese replied.

Shawn, Aaron and Bruce stood up seeing Ted, Luke and Myles walking their
way. Seth was sitting there with them and was just staring. Ted set down
the big box and greeted them while others began looking in our
direction. Ted handed out shirts and hats to them before finding a seat.

Scott introduced Seth to the four. Seth stared hard at them. "You know I
saw a picture last night and said there's no way that's Ted Wilcox. I
didn't wanna sound like a fool."

"It is Ted Wilcox..." Kris said.

"And Luke McGee too," Seth said.

"Finally somebody knows me," Luke laughed.

"If you have any more I'd love a shirt and hat," Seth said.

"Sure, I brought all kinds," Ted said.

"Ummm... would you and Luke sign the hat? My brother is a huge Cowboy's
fan," Seth said. "He won't believe this."

"I'm not signing any Cowboy's shit," Luke said.

"Next time bring your Charger stuff then," Myles said.

"I will if they handed it out like candy," Luke laughed.

Ted grabbed a sharpie and signed the bill of the hat. Luke signed it as
well but put SD below his name.

"Thanks," Seth said. "I recognize his face."

Myles laughed, "I played safety for two years with these two superstars."

"Better yet, he was their roommate," I said.

"Finally someone knows me," Myles echoed Luke and started laughing.

We moved our chairs in a big circle so we could be together. Ted, Luke and
Myles were very interested in hearing how everyone was doing. One by one
they told him about their jobs and how much they missed college life. Myles
echoed the sentiments as well and said he really would come the fall. It
took some badgering before Ted and Luke would talk about how things were
going for them.

"I wanna hear come the end of September who everyone will be pulling for?"
Luke asked.

"Why's that?" Colt asked.

"We play each other out in San Diego," Ted stated with his shirt now off,
as was everyone else's.

"I'm thinking about flying out there..." Myles stated.

"I told ya we'd arrange it," Ted said.

"How fucking sweet would it be if Luke came here? Ted, you better be able
to get lots of tickets for the year," Kris stated.

"I'll do everything I can," Ted stated.

"Matt and I have already said we're going to as many games as we can,"
Corey said.

"Good. I'll make sure our tickets are together," Reese stated.

"Alright, who's everyone gonna root for in our game?" Luke asked again.

We pointed at Ted and laughed. "Bro, we'll pull for you if you're in the
game."

"Then it will be the Cowboys," Luke laughed.

While we were talking a guy walked up with a beer in his hand, "I'm sorry
but is that Ted Wilcox and Luke McGee?"

"It is," Luke replied turning his head.

"You're Jake Simons that played quarterback at Union," Ted said and stood
to greet the guy.

"Oh my God, it is," Luke said and stood as well. "How's it going?"

"Not bad, but not near as well as for you two. I kept up with every game
and watched every one of them I could. I even came to a few," Jake
replied. "I remember Ted would knock the living shit of you in high school
and then pick you up before going back to the huddle. One time I was seeing
stars after he hit me so damn hard."

We laughed.

"Jake, didn't we go to a few camps together?" Luke asked.

"We did," Jake replied.

"Did you play any college ball?" Ted asked.

"I played baseball my freshman and sophomore years until I tore up my
shoulder," Jake replied. "Luke, I think you played a little baseball but I
think you picked the right sport."

"I played a little but you were really good from what I remember," Luke
said.

"Jake, you're welcome to join us. These are all my college buddies, plus my
nephew. We came over to see them today," Ted said.

"Thanks for asking but I just wanted to say hi. My girlfriend thought I was
crazy," Jake said.

"Do you want a hat?" Reese asked. "Teddy still has a bunch left."

"That'd be awesome," Jake replied.

Ted reached in and tossed him two.

Ted and Luke shook Jake's hand before he walked back to sit with his girl.

"Ted remembers everyone," Kris stated.

"I remember Jake. We played against each other for three years in high
school. You know he was pretty good, but he was slow as molasses," Ted
said.

"He had a great arm," Luke said.

Kris and Colt ran off to grab some beer for us while we continued to enjoy
the fact a lot of the gang was here. I couldn't help but notice that Ted
and Luke were even bigger than the last time I saw them and even more so
when they took off their shirts. Myles had put on a little weight but still
looked great. Both Ted and Myles loved rubbing it in Luke's face about the
cruise. Sitting there, I did realize this was everyone except for Dillon
and Sergio who had gone on the cruise with us. Once Kris and Colt came
back, I headed inside and knew I had to take some pictures. I had neglected
to do so since we'd been together. I insisted that all of us who had gone
to pose for a picture. They laughed and wondered when I was going to take
some pictures when I came back with my camera. We lined up how we were in
the big cruise picture, with Luke manning the camera.

We stayed around by the pool until about six or later while I took a bunch
of pictures to remember the day by. Everyone came to our place to continue
what we had started, with Seth right there with us. We talked about going
to see fireworks with Ted saying they couldn't stay. The guys started
badgering him until he relented and agreed to go with us. With very little
open, we did find a place that would deliver pizza and ordered a bunch to
have at our place.

I headed to change and heard a knock at my door. I said it was open since I
had already changed out of my swimsuit. Reese opened the door and came
inside.

"Having fun?" I asked, looking for a shirt.

"Always love being around you guys, you're the best and mean so much to
me. Matt, I don't know if I'd have made it without your help," Reese
replied.

"Thanks. You said you wanted to talk to me," I said.

"Yeah... ummm... I need some advice. Latham and I are getting kind of stale
in our relationship. It's one of the reasons we're not together this
weekend," Reese said, pushing back his long bangs.

"Stale in what ways?" I asked.

"Just about everything," Reese replied. "I'm scared I'm fixing to lose
him. I know you and Corey have been together so long and you know more than
anyone about these things."

I put on my shirt, which gave me a second to think. "For one, you're doing
the right thing by being apart this weekend. Sometimes it is the best thing
to do. Are you fighting?"

"A little, but it's about the stupidest shit," Reese said.

"Aren't most fights? My thing was to take a walk with Corey and hash it out
until it was resolved. Staying mad at each other makes it worse and causes
it to grow."

"Boy, I agree there. Honestly, I think he's bored to death with our sex
life too."

"You may need to mix it up. Catch him off guard when he least expects
it. Say you're sitting watching TV alone. Just reach over and start sucking
his dick, getting him excited until he's begging to fuck you or have you
fuck him."

Reese laughed, "I've never heard you talk like that before."

I laughed, "I had to take a moment and realize you're 20 years old now and
not a kid.  Corey and I have fucked in all kind of places. It really adds
to the excitement. I remember one time we were in a lull and he took me to
a vacant classroom where I fucked him. It worked wonders."

"We do need to mix it up other than fucking in our bedroom. You do know I'm
living with him this year?"

"No I didn't. You need to get this resolved."

"You're telling me. I love him so much, Matt."

"Reese, tell him that every day. I still tell Corey I love him every day."

"Do you still... ummm... fuck like always?"

"Maybe more," I replied with a big smile. "Reese, try to mix things up both
sexually and in the things you do."

"We pretty much do the same thing over and over. You're right we do need to
mix things up, more so in doing things."

"That will lead to better sex too," I said.

"Thanks. I knew I could count on you. You're the best ever," Reese said and
kissed me on the cheek.

"Reese, I've always thought the world of you as well," I said.

"One weekend maybe we can get together and you know..."

"Let's just keep things the way they are," I said. We walked out to find
the others eating the pizza. Scott now had a great place lined up where we
could all go and enjoy a great fireworks display in celebration of the
holidays.

Once we finished, we headed out in different cars to the park where Scott
said the fireworks could be seen over a lake. We saw we weren't alone but
did find a place to park. Now I had my camera with me so I could take
pictures of everyone. We found a big area and threw down our things, which
naturally included an ice chest.

The fireworks were so spectacular. I sat with Corey's arm draped around my
waist while Alton and Jordy were doing the same. Mostly, everything felt
right in the world with a majority of us back together as one big happy
family. It seemed when we were apart things were so vastly different, but
together things gelled as they always did.

It was very hard saying goodbye to Ted, Luke, Myles and Reese once the
fireworks were completed. Ted and Reese each gave me a big hug, with Ted
telling Corey over and over how he better take care of me.

We drove back with the others gathering in our apartment. It didn't bother
me at all that everyone did so. We wanted to be together as much and as
long as possible while there was the opportunity. The only bad thing was it
really made me want things to be like this at all times.

"Those guys are something else," Bruce said.

"Aren't they the best jocks in the world?" Scott stated.

"I noticed," Seth said. "They blew away my perception of big time
athletes. I thought they'd all be total assholes. They were the exact
opposite."

"That's how they've been from day one, bro," Kris said.

"I've always said Ted liked it because we treated him like a regular
person. You saw how he always deflected the conversation when it came to
talking about him. Luke was the same way," I said.

"As always, he was gracious. I hope he saves some of his money," Corey
said.

"Me too," Colt said. "Buying new shit for everyone."

"I think he will," I said. "He got a nice bonus and wanted to say thanks to
everyone who had helped him along the way."

"If he or Luke makes it big time then they will be set," Aaron said.

"Luke will have it so hard but Ted will make it easily," Bruce stated. "The
team has more invested in Ted than Luke's team does with him."

"Jordy hopes they both make it," Alton said for Jordy. Alton was so great
with Jordy and it was so great to see.

"I'll just say this as an outsider, y'all are so unique," Seth stated.

"We are very unique," Shawn said.

"You seem so close..." Seth said.

"We are, bro," Kris interrupted.

"You have a good mix between straight, gay and bi, but what about any
people of color?" Seth asked.

"Our roommate was black and fit right in," Bruce replied.

"We had a mixed guy, Juan, and then a Hispanic, Sergio..." Scott said.

"We also had Kwan hanging around for a little while, but no one really
stuck together like the ones you see here," Corey said. "We'd accepted them
just like they've accepted me and Matt."

"The way I've always seen it, and still see it, is everyone is a person. I
love the black guys, the Mexican guys, the Asian guys and white ones that
I'm coaching right now," Kris said.

"Kris, are there any gay guys on your team?" Aaron asked.

"None that I'm aware of," Kris replied.

"Kris would be real protective of them if there was. He's always been
protective of me," I said.

"Matt, you can take up for yourself. Remember?" Colt asked.

I rolled my eyes, "How can I forget because y'all keep bringing it up."

"Matt had some frat boy bully that he not only beat the living shit out of
once but the guy got it again," Kris laughed.

Again it was after one before everyone was gone. No one was really drunk
but a lot were left feeling good. I backed off a little while Corey was
pouring them down his throat.

The next day, Friday, rather than hang around the apartment or at the pool,
the four of us headed off to a nearby park just to get away. We stopped to
get some food on the way to have an old fashioned picnic. It was still hot
and humid as always in the summer. Corey brought a Frisbee so we could
enjoy throwing it around and stay active. He bought it a while back but we
rarely used it. It was fun and quite different to do.

We pulled our food out for our picnic. It was just sandwich stuff with
chips and water.

"Bros, I hate that tomorrow Colt and I are out of here," Kris stated.

"I did talk to Mom this morning and I really need to see her," Colt said
before taking a bite while we were sitting on our butts with sweat running
down our faces.

"What'd she say?" Corey asked.

"She's a little excited about the pregnancy," Colt replied. "I need to put
a little realism in her."

"Colt, don't dampen her excitement. I'm sure she more than realizes what's
going on. It will be her first grandchild," I said.

"I don't want to dampen her excitement, but we need to be real about shit
here," Colt said.

"Hey, I know I'm having a blast with everyone, but I miss this right
here. The four of us," Kris said. "I was thinking once or twice a year us
four need to plan a trip, even if it is just camping so we can be
together."

"I agree, but... remember things have changed for both of us," Colt
reminded Kris.

"Bro, I know that, but once or twice a year better not fucking kill them,"
Kris said. "They fully understood this weekend."

"It would be great," I said. "I was thinking Corey and I would enjoy a nice
vacation, just the two of us. But I think we'll be with each other so much
that a vacation with you two and more would be sweet."

"Yeah, I love Matt so much and always will, but I see his point there. We
lived three years with the two of you there beside us. It has been so
different this past month. There are times I catch myself looking for
y'all."

"Me too," Colt said. "I dream countlessly about us."

Kris laughed, "I do too, but it's always when we're naked."

"Leave it to Kris," I laughed. "I have some of the weirdest dreams and
sometimes wake up thinking you two are still rooming with us."

Corey hit his bare chest, "The bond that will never be broken."

"It never will," Kris stated. "Besides my Nathan tatt, this means the world
to me."

We sat around until we were finished eating. We got back up and continued
to toss around the Frisbee to each other. At the end Kris tackled Corey in
the grass playfully. Colt ran over and joined the pile. I was right behind
Colt to get on top. With pure strength, Colt and I ended off the pile and
were dog piled by Corey and Kris. We rolled around the grass and laughed so
loud. I did have grass all over me and it did itch, but it was too fun to
say a word about it.

We returned back to the apartment with Scott wondering where we'd been. We
gathered together and agreed that we should go out and eat as a group
before we began separating again.

Our big group of just us and our friends headed out to eat Mexican food. We
found a place that Corey and I had discovered and it wasn't that
crowded. There was a large table to accommodate all ten of us. We ordered
and sat around. For a change, the conversation focused more on the present
rather than the past. Reliving the past was something great, but there was
a lot of hope among the ten of us for bright futures beyond just the
present. We told of our dreams and hopes just as the big meal was arriving
along with various drinks.

After we finished we didn't want to leave and continued to order various
drinks so we wouldn't get run off.

"Bros, I'm just telling each and every one of you, I expect to see you at
the first home game," Kris said and pointed around the big table.

"Find us all a place," Shawn said.

"For one, it won't be the first time any one of us has slept on a floor,"
Colt stated. "We have Ethan, Cody and Dillon still around. If worse comes
to worse my brother will have room, or he better with all the times he and
his friends stayed with us."

"We'll try," Bruce said. "It would be fun."

"Colt, Jordy, Alton, Aaron and I made a very concerted effort to be here
this weekend. I don't really think it's asking too much for the rest of you
to return the favor. You'd lie if you said this wasn't any fun," Kris
stated.

"Ain't that the truth," Corey said. "We've been together `til past midnight
three straight nights. I've loved it."

"Okay, I'll do whatever it takes to be there," Scott stated. "If nothing
else, I can see my brother."

"I also think y'all should try to get together at least once a week. So far
not a one of you that live here are dating," Kris stated.

"Matt, did you put him up to saying that?" Shawn asked.

"I didn't, but I like the idea. Tell me how many times the five of us have
been together since we moved here," I replied.

"I agree," Scott said. "We said we'd stick together yet we've gone in
basically different directions. I know we're all working and try to make
our own way here but it wouldn't kill us to gather at one of our apartments
and chill for one night say on the weekend. We can catch up on everything
and have fun while doing so just like we have here."

"Sounds great to me," Bruce said. "There will be some jealous folks."

"Jordy said he would be," Alton said.

We finished up and paid our bills before returning home. We gathered around
for a little while back at our place but no one stayed that long.

Once everyone was gone, Kris came walking down the hall from the bathroom
wearing nothing but a smile. As with the previous nights, we lost our
clothes and enjoyed the time together.

Colt was shaking his head, "Still after so long we love showing off to each
other."

"Bro, it's not showing off. I'm doing my damnedest to get Melissa to enjoy
this life, but fuck she won't let go," Kris stated.

"I know the feeling," Colt said. "Now I regret coming here. I fucking hate
that we gotta leave tomorrow."

"I hate it too. It's been so much fun," I stated.

"It's been great. I hate the fact I work Sunday," Corey said.

"I really start Monday," I said.

"Are you excited about that?" Colt asked me.

"I am. I'm ready to start out. Training was so boring but I learned so much
in a short time. It's amazing that I went four years of college yet they
could drill their system into my head in four weeks," I replied.

"I'm still amazed y'all haven't met anyone. I hope you become friends with
Seth. I can see how he wants to be friends and be a part of the group..."

"I appreciate the idea of us getting together. We needed Kris here to push
us in that direction," Corey stated.

"Matt, has it sunk in yet that you're finally living your dream of living
with Corey?" Colt asked.

"It has. It's really been nice, but I still miss the two of you and always
will," I replied. "Even though Kris and I talk three or four times a week
it's just not the same without him here."

"I agree," Kris said. "It's total bullshit when someone says they enjoy a
long distance relationship."

"Well... someone might, but I don't see how they could. I feel sorry for
those who travel all the time," Corey said.

"It's sacrifice completely," Colt said. "Faith wants to get a sales job
after she graduates in December. She's already told me to expect her to
travel."

"I'll be there," Kris said.

Corey and I were up about ten and came out together to find Kris and Colt
dressed. We found something to eat before we sat back around until one.

I was so glad they had come to visit and looked forward to seeing them as
soon as possible. With our lives changing, seeing them as much as we wanted
would be tough and would involve many sacrifices. Somehow, some way I knew
we'd give it our best shot. It was hard seeing Kris and Colt walk out the
door and get in Kris's vehicle. I stood staring out at them with Corey's
arm around me.

"Each time will get easier," Corey said.

"Maybe," I said as I shut the door.
