Chapter Three: The Movies and More.

I just was laying on my bed thinking about the wonderful night that we
had. I found it very hard to fall asleep. I tossed and turned and I guess I
did that for about an hour before I finally feel off to sleep.

I heard my alarm go off and 9inch Nails was doing one of their songs. I
jumped out of bed and went across the room to shut off the alarm. Most
people have their alarm clocks within reach. Well I can't do that because I
would just keep hitting the snooze alarm. So I put it across the room so I
have to get out of bed.

I got up and of course Mr. Pee hardon was well awake and ready to go. So
off I went to the bathroom. Man I tell you I didn't think that I was going
to get done peeing. I just kept going and going and going. I thought I was
the fucking Eveready bunny. Finally the end phew. Of course, I had to shake
it a few extra times.

And today was the day. Today I would get to go to the movies with my honey
bunny.

Well I went and jumped into the shower and quickly got done with that and
got dressed for the day. I ran down the stairs into the kitchen. I knew my
Mom wouldn't be up yet she sleeps in on the weekends. So I grabbed a bowl
and my Apple Jacks and the milk and sat down at the kitchen table and had a
couple of bowls. I finished up breakfast and put my bowl in the sink, put
the milk and cereal away and decided that I would sit and watch some
cartoons. I set my alarm on Saturday mornings because my favorite cartoons
come on. I watch Cartoon Express. They have cartoons on till 11am on
Saturday so I usually hang out until they are done. Unless of course, I
have somewhere to go. Then I put a tape in and tape them so I can watch
them during the week. Well I knew that my Mom would be getting up around
10:30- 11:00 am and she usually has chores for me to do. So I just chilled
out and watched the cartoons till I got my list of chores for the day. Most
of the time it is not a big deal. So I sat there watching cartoons for
about an hour and then I heard my mom stirring around in the kitchen. I
expected to hear her voice any moment now. Just as I was going to get up
and go into the kitchen the phone rang. My Mom answered it and she hollered
for me to pick it up. So I did.  " Hello this is Jeremy who is this?" It's
Justin you ninny." "How come your calling me so early the movies don't
start till 2pm?" "Well I have a little problem Jeremy." "Oh, shit what's
wrong?" "Nothing big is happening but I am stuck babysitting my little
sister. And the only way that I can go to the movies is to take her along."
" Oh, Fuck that's no good. I wanted to spend the time with you not your
little sister. Damnit nothing ever fucking works out for me when I find
someone that I love. All this stupid shit happens."  " Hey, Jeremy try and
get a grip will you. It's not my fault. She was supposed to go shopping
with my Mom but my Mom got called into work. There is nothing that I can do
about it I am sorry." "Well what time does your Mom come home from work?"
"She doesn't get home until 9pm."  " Oh man that really sucks nothing like
ruining my fucking day." " Listen Jeremy how about if I call my Mom at work
and see if she would let me stay over at your house tonight?"  "Well, I
don't know. I would love it but I have to go ask my Mom. Hold on I will be
right back."  I ran into the kitchen to ask my Mom. " Mom I was supposed to
go to the movies with Justin today and he has to baby-sit his little sister
today cause his Mom had to go to work. Would it be all right if he came
over around 9 and spent the night. I promise we will not make much noise?"
"Well I really don't prefer that you have anyone over night tonight because
I am not going to be home until late like 2 or 3 in the morning. Will you
promise me that you wouldn't get carried away upstairs?" "Yeah Mom I
promise, honest." " Okay then but you make sure that Jeremy's mother knows
where he is going to be and that I wouldn't be home. " Okay Mom thanks
you're the best." I leaned over and gave her a hug and kiss. " And just in
case you and Justin get hungry I will leave you money on the kitchen table
so that you can call and order a pizza or something."  "Thank's Mom you're
the best." So I ran into the den and picked up the phone. "Justin are you
there?" "Yeah I am here, what did your Mom say?" "She said as long as your
Mom knows where you will be and that she knows that my Mom will not be home
till late that it is all right for you to stay over." "Oh, that's
great. Let me call my Mom and see if we can swing that. I will call you
right back."  "Okay, sweetie."  So I hung up the phone and sat down in the
recliner and turned the television back on. It seemed like it took forever
for the phone to ring. Finally it did ring. "Hello this is Jeremy who is
this?"  "It's me were you expecting someone else to call you back you silly
goose? Why do you answer the phone like that? Especially if you know I am
going to call you back right away."  " What do you mean right away? I
thought you got lost. It seemed like forever till you called me back. And
the reason that I always answer the phone like that is because that's how
my Mom and Dad taught me to do it and I just can't break the habit. Sorry
if that bothers you." "No it's okay." "So what did your Mom say Justin?"
"Well the reason it took so long for me to call you back is that I had to
talk my Mom into letting me come over. She doesn't like the idea that no
one will be there besides us. So I promised her that I would call her as
soon as I got here and call her at midnight so she knows that we are all
right."  " Gee's where did she think you were going that you have to do all
that? Your only coming two blocks not around the world or out of state." "
Hey , Jeremy what do you want me to tell you. I am still my Mom's baby and
she is over protective what can I say."  "So what time are you going to
come over." " My Mom gets home from work at 9pm so I guess anytime after
that. I wish it was sooner and I feel bad about screwing up the plans we
had for today. But there was nothing I could do about it." "That's okay and
I apologize for cursing the way I did. I was just over anxious to spend
time with you I am sorry Justin." "Hey its okay Jeremy. I know how you
feel. I was bummed out terrible when I found out that I couldn't go to the
movies with you." "All right then Justin see you tonight. Just remember
that I love you." " I love you too Jeremy, talk to you later."  "Okay
sweetie, till tonight then love ya." " Love you too sweetie."

Well the day was long and I tried to entertain myself the best that I
could. I played video games and then watched some taped shows that I had
wanted to watch. But it seemed like forever until Justin comes over. I went
to the kitchen to fix lunch. Just felt like having something light so I
made two peanut butter and jelly sandwiches and grabbed a glass of
milk. Nothing like peanut butter and jelly sandwiches they are my personal
fav.  So I took my lunch back into the den to watch some more television. I
clicked through the channels on the cable box till I found something to
watch. I wasn't much of a sports fan so I ended up watching some more
cartoons on the Cartoon Network. Some kind of silly cartoon was on but it
was better than watching nothing. I finished my lunch or snack whatever it
was and put my dish on the coffee table along with my empty glass. I
decided if I was going to have to spend time watching tv that I would get
comfortable so I took off my shoes and socks and just laid my head down on
the pillow and stretched out on the couch. Well timed seemed to drag so I
turned off the television and put on the stereo and loaded up the CD player
and just laid back down and I guess fell asleep. The next thing that I
remember is waking up and it was dark outside. Boy I must have taken some
nap. I looked at the clock on the TV stand and it said 8pm. Gee, I didn't
think that I was that tired but I guess I was.

I got up and went up to my room and cleaned it up a little. You know
putting dirty clothes in the hamper and making the bed stuff like that. I
wanted to make a good impression on Justin. I didn't want him to think that
I was a slob. I went back downstairs to take my dirty wash to the laundry
room and I heard a knock on the door. I quickly put the clothes in the
hamper and ran to the door. It was too early for Justin so I thought I
would ask who it was. I went to the front door and I looked through the
peephole. All I could see was like a blue material whoever it was, was
standing very close to the door. "Who is at the door and how can I help
you." "Son just open the door it is the police." "Sorry, not till I see
your badge through the peephole." That kind of angered the person at the
door. Then I heard a familiar voice. "Jeremy open the door its Justin." So
I quickly opened the door.  There was the love of my life with bruises all
over his face. "What happened Justin?"  "Well, its hard to talk about."
"Well then come over here." I took him in my arms and he broke down in
tears. Then I realized that his sister wasn't with him. "Where is your
sister Justin?"  "Excuse me son, I am Officer Kronke your friend here was
beat up by his mother. Seems that someone told her at work that he was
gay. And when she got home from work she tried to beat him straight. We
have his Mom in custody and his sister is at a friend's house for the
night. Can he stay with you till morning?" " Yes of course he was supposed
to stay all night tonight with me. Of course officer." Justin was crying
terrible he was really hurt. " Okay officer he will be fine with me. I will
take good care of him."  "All right son let me have your phone number in
case we have to reach you or your friend here." "All right officer my
number is 727-555-5555." "Okay son take care of your friend. I asked him if
he wanted to go to the hospital and he said no that he would rather come
over and stay with you." "That's fine with me sir and thanks." " Justin if
you don't feel good you have your friend here call headquarters and we will
send an officer to come and get you. Do you understand son?" " Yes, officer
but I will be fine right here thank you." "Officer thanks for bringing my
friend to my house I am pretty sure that he will be fine." "Okay then I
will leave you two." The officer left and I took Justin into the den.  We
sat down on the couch and Justin asked me not to leave him. "Don't worry
sweetheart I am right here. I am just going to go up to my bathroom to get
some peroxide and cream for your face you have some pretty good cuts." "
Please hurry back Jeremy don't leave me for long please." " I will be right
back Justin just put your head down on the pillow and try and rest your
eyes."  "Okay Jeremy thanks."  I ran upstairs to my bathroom and got some
gauze pads and some peroxide and cream. I went downstairs to the den and my
sweet loveable baby had fallen asleep. I feel so sorry for him. I hate his
Mom for what she did to him. How could she being such a brute to her own
child? How could she not just love him for who he is not what he is? I
didn't understand this at all.  While thoughts of her beating up her own
son just because someone told her at work that they thought he was gay. How
dare someone do that? I am so pissed I could scream but I didn't want to
wake Justin. So I took a light blanket and covered him and sat in the
recliner waiting for him to wake up. I turned on the television but I
plugged my headphones in so as to not wake him. I sat there for what seemed
like hours watching some cartoons on the Cartoon network. Some of them were
okay but others were stupid.  What can I say I just love Cartoons. Out of
the side of my eye I could see Justin tossing and turning. I took my
headphones off and went over to see if he was okay. He was having a
nightmare and all he kept saying was: " No Mom not again, Please Mom you
can't beat me straight. Please no more Mom." Evidently he was rehashing
what had happened to him at his house with his Mom. I calmly took my hand
and ran it through his hair. Trying to calm him down. "Justin, Justin
sweetie, come on your having a nightmare sweetie." He all of a sudden woke
up and turned around a grabbed me and started to cry.  "Jeremy it was all
so terrible. I just had a dream about what had happened to me tonight."  "I
know sweetheart only it was a dream it was a nightmare. Now let me try and
clean some of those welts on your face. It is going to burn a little so
don't get scared all right?"  "Okay Jeremy I know you wouldn't hurt me."
So I started to take a gauze pad with peroxide on it and wipe his face
where the wounds were. There were a couple of ouches and ahhs from him but
he was taking it very well. Then I put some cream on the cuts to make they
heal faster. "There you go Justin your face will be fine." "Thanks Jeremy I
love you." "I know you do sweetheart and I love you too." "Listen Justin
are you hungry, cause my Mom let us some money to order a pizza." "That
would be good. Since my Mom came home and beat the shit out of me, I didn't
get to eat anything. I don't know what I am gonna do I can't go back home
and if I don't they are going to put me in a foster home. Do you think that
your Mom and Dad would let me stay here with you?"  " Well I really don't
know but I could ask my Mom and Dad in the morning." " I am sure that it
will be all right to stay for awhile. And I would like that a lot." "Yeah,
I kinda figured you would Jeremy." "Hey Justin what kind of pizza do you
like, cheese, pepperoni, meatball, peppers and onions? Any special kind you
like sweetie?" "Well if you don't mind Jeremy just a plain cheese pizza
would be good for me. If you want to get something on it, it is up to you."
"Nope a plain cheese pizza is just right for me too." So I picked up the
phone and called Pizza Hut and ordered the pizza to be delivered. " Well
Justin they said it would take about 30 minutes to deliver it." " Hey no
problem when it gets here we will eat that's all. And by the way Jeremy
thanks I really appreciate everything that you do for me." "I know sweetie,
I know." " Hey Justin how about a game of Monopoly on the play station? We
can save it when the pizza comes and continue it after we eat." "Sounds
like a plan Jeremy lets do it." So we started a game of monopoly and of
course as a good host I was letting Jeremy do most of the winning. We went
around the board a few times and by then the pizza guy was ringing the bell
with the pizza. So we stopped the game and saved it and I went and paid the
guy for the pizza. I took it into the den and put it on the coffee table
and then went into the kitchen to get some foam plates and napkins. Also on
the way out of the kitchen I grabbed a bottle of soda out of the fridge and
two glasses. So here is come all hands full and Justin jumped up to grab
the soda and dropped it on the floor. Thank goodness for plastic
bottles. We sat and watched television while we ate and then cleaned up
everything and went back to playing monopoly. Well the time was passing
very quickly and I could see Justin starting to yawn every so man
minutes. So I decided to ask him if he was tired and wanted to go to bed."
Hey Justin your yawning like you haven't slept in a week. Do you want to go
to bed?" " Well Jeremy I am a bit tired. But I don't want to be a party
pooper." "Hey Justin don't worry about it after what you went through today
I am sure it took a lot out of you.  If you are tired we can go to bed."
"Are you sure you don't mind Jeremy?" "Not at all, you're my guest and when
you stay over I expect you to go to when you are tired not when I say its
time." "Okay then lets go to bed Jeremy." So we saved the game and shut
down the game system and headed upstairs to bed.

Of course because of what had happened to Justin tonight he didn't bring
any pajamas with him. So I took out a spare pair of mine and gave them to
him. "Hey Jeremy I don't need those. I never wear pajamas to bed I sleep in
my underwear. Is that okay with you.?"  "Hey if you want sleep in the nude
what can I tell you just be comfortable." "Thanks, Jeremy I appreciate
that." "Hey anything you want to do is fine with me I love you and will do
anything for you." "I know sweetie and I appreciate it. And I love you
too." So we crawled up on to the bed and just laid there looking at one
another. We decided that since Justin had such a bad day that we would just
go to sleep and not have any sex.  So I moved as close as I could to Jeremy
and put my arm around him and he did the same to me. We kissed one another
goodnight and just held each other till we fell asleep.
