                The Tyler I knew - Chapter 2


Andy awoke at about 6:15 in the morning with a sharp pain in
his back and neck. He looked over at Tyler who was leaning
against him resting his head on Andy's chest. Andy was
leaning against the window of the back seat of the car. It
was extremely uncomfortable like this, but Andy refused to
move. He didn't want to end this moment. He never wanted it
to stop. Tyler was a beautiful boy, he wanted him in his
arms forever.

"I hope he doesn't wake anytime soon" Tyler thought. He was
very comfortable. He felt safe and secure in Andy's arms, he
didn't know why he felt that way. He had just met him the
day before. But, he could remain in Andy's arms forever.
Slowly the two drifted back off to sleep again.

At 7:45 a man on a 4-wheeler had ridden up. He looked inside
seeing the two boy's holding each other. "I can't believe
this shit!" the man thought shaking his head.

"Andrew!" The man yelled, while beating on the window. "Get
your ass up boy!"

Andy and Tyler jumped. Tyler moved to the other side of the
car scared.

"Oh my god!" Tyler said. "Who is that? Do you know him?
What's he going to do to us?"

The guy was rather scary looking. About Six-foot tall and
arms as big as Tyler's head.

"Relax!" Andy said grinning.

"What the hell do you want?" Andy said opening the back
door.

"What are you up here doing, fucking your little fag friends
in your uncles field?" The guy said with a nasty tone.

"Like it's any of your fucking business, Don!" Andy shot
off.

"Your uncle had said something about you being gay, but I
didn't believe it! I guess I have no choice now! Seen it
with muh own eyes! What a faggot!" The guy said.

"How about you just get the hell out of here!" Andy said
getting rather testy.

"I can't believe it. And your damn uncle defends you. I
wouldn't have anything to do with my nephew, or anyone in my
family for that matter if they were queers!" The guy said,
starting his four-wheeler and driving off.

"What a fuck-head!" Andy said turning to Tyler.

"Who is that?" Tyler asked.

"It's my uncle's neighbor. He comes up here riding his 4-
wheeler every now and then. Funny thing is.. His own son is
gay, but won't tell him." Andy said laughing. "Anyway,
sorry. There is no need to be worried. I assure you he
doesn't know anyone you know."

"Truthfully, I don't really care who he talks with about
me." Tyler said.

Andy sat back down inside the car. Tyler still looked a
little shaken.

"Are you alright?" Andy asked, putting an arm around Tyler.

"Are you sure this didn't cause any problems for you?" Tyler
asked, looking a little concerned.

"No! You mean, my uncle? No way! He was the first one I came
out to. He's my mother's brother. He's awesome! I wouldn't
be surprised if he went straight to see Don." Andy said.

"That guy that was just here, that is Don?" Tyler asked.

"Yeah, he's an idiot. His son is 14 and is gay. I can't wait
until he comes out to his dad. I want to be there to see the
look on his face. He thinks his son can do no wrong. His
son, Seth is a lot different than he thinks." Andy said,
pulling Tyler closer.

The two set there for a little while longer. It may have
seemed weird to someone else. But the two didn't really care
to talk. They just wanted to be together. It's funny how
things like this happen. You only know someone for a short
time, but you can't stand to be apart already.

"Andy, I have a question." Tyler spoke after several
minuets.

"Ask away!" Andy said.

"I've never been in this situation before. And well, I guess
that I.. I just.." Tyler looked up to Andy. He wanted to say
something. Something that was important to him.

"Ask already! I'm not that patient ya know!" Andy said
smiling.

"Well, I just don't want you to go away, that's all. I like
being with you and I don't want you to stop liking me for
some reason and just go away."

"I'm not going anywhere. I promise." Andy said, moving
closer to Tyler and kissing him on the cheek.

Tyler smiled at this, turned his head and the two kissed.
This kiss seemed much more deeper than the one the previous
night.

The two separated after a moment but continued looking each
other in the eyes.

"Let's go see my uncle about Don" Andy said, breaking up the
moment.

Tyler's expression changed from admiration to a look of
someone who was terrified.

"It's ok! Really! You will like him!" Andy added, seeing the
change on Tyler's face.

"Alright! Let me help you pick everything up. Tyler said, a
bit more relaxed.

Ten minuets later they were heading out of the field and
down a long gravel driveway. It seemed to go for miles, but
when they got to the end there was this beautiful farm house
with green shutters and a green roof.

"This is your uncles house?" Tyler said in awe. It's
beautiful!"

"Yeah, he got it from my grandparents." Andy said. "It's
actually rather old."

They got out of the car and walked up on the porch. Andy
didn't knock but walked straight in.

"Uncle Mark, you here?"  Andy called out.

"I think so!" Came a voice from up the steps to their left.

"Come down here, I have someone here for you to meet!" Andy
yelled back.

"Oh, let me guess, you actually found a boy who can put up
with you?" His uncle called back as he came down the steps.

Tyler was shocked to hear him say this.

"Actually, yes I did. Andy answered just as his Uncle Mark
reached the bottom of the steps.

"Well, hello!" Mark said, greeting Tyler.

Mark was a rather good looking man for his age. He was
rather slim and stood just a bit taller than Andy.

"Hi Uncle Mark!" Andy said giving his uncle a hug.

"What's going on Andy?" Mark asked.

"Well, we were up the hill in the field and Don came up and
started running his mouth about some things." Andy told his
uncle.

"Why in the world would he do that? You were not up there
tearing up were you?"  Mark asked.

Tyler explained the whole situation to Mark in detail. He
noticed while he was telling his uncle all about it Tyler
seemed a little uncomfortable.

"I'll take care of him, don't you worry. You are still
allowed up there any time you want. But be sure to tell me
if you see him up there!" His uncle Mark said in a sharp
tone.

"Will do!" Andy said. Hey, I am going to get my 4-wheeler
out, you don't mind do you?"

"No, not at all! I am heading to town though. Are you two
going to hang out here all day?

Andy looked at Tyler a moment then answered. "I'm not sure
yet. We have not quite worked out what we are doing."

"Alright, well you know you are more than welcome to!" Mark
said in a sweet tone. "However... I'm bringing a. friend
back this evening. But like I said, you are more than
welcome to be here. Ok?

"Sounds good!" Andy answered.

"Well, I guess I'm off then. See you later?"

"I hope!" Andy answered. "See you later!"

"Later boy's!" His uncle said as he walked out the door.

Andy turned to Tyler.

"So, do you have anything to do today?" Andy asked.

"Nope, not a thing!" Tyler said smiling. "Can I ask you
something?"

"Anything!"

"Is your uncle gay?" Tyler asked cautiously.

"Yeah, he is. And I am sure by now you know that I am." Andy
said laughing.

"Well, that's kinda obvious" Tyler said with a sweet smile.

"If it were not for him and my mother, I probably wouldn't
be as comfortable with it as I am." Andy said.

"Seems like you have a great family then."

Andy thought a moment. "Yeah, my mom and uncle are. Those
two are close themselves. My mother was the first person in
the family he came out to. He actually raised my mom. When
she was 12 My grandma and grandpa was killed in a car wreck
just down the road from here. He was 20 then, had a full
time job and all. It's not like he needed it after they
died. He inherited this house and a lot of money."

"So what about your dad?" Tyler asked.

"I've never met him. I guess he took off when mom got
pregnant with me." Andy said in a rather sad voice.

"Oh, I'm sorry." Tyler said.

"Don't be. I'm sure it would have come up sometime!" Andy
said, forcing himself not to sound so sad. "Well, how about
we call your mom or someone and see about you staying here
for a while today!"

"No need. It's ok really." Andy said, this time it was him
who sounded sad.

"Oh, well I was going to ask you if you wanted to stay all
night here and hang out. I know it's kinda early, but I
really enjoy being with you." Andy  said.

"Actually, that sounds really good!" Tyler said excitedly.

"You don't need to call anyone?" Andy asked.

"No, not right now anyway." Tyler said, still sounding
rather sad.

"Alright then. Well we will get something to eat then go
take a ride on the 4-wheeler. Ever been on one?"  Andy
asked.

Tyler shook his head no. "Heard they were dangerous as hell
though."

"No need to worry. I'll go slow. But by tomorrow I expect
you to be able to drive one yourself! I'll teach ya!" Andy
said grabbing Tyler by the arm and pulling them into the
kitchen.

Tyler looked even more scared at the sound of operating
something like that on his own. He'd never had a chance to
do anything like this. The thought of driving something so
dangerous scared him. But he had faith in Andy. He'd only
known him for a little less than a day, but felt safe around
him and trusted Andy to the fullest.

All that morning and part of the afternoon they rode the ATV
around the yard. By two o'clock Tyler was having the time of
his life. With every minuet he was growing more and more
attached to Andy. He didn't want this day to end. He could
stay in this moment for the rest of his life and be
completely happy. He was with someone who actually cared.

"Well, you feel any more comfortable with all this yet?"
Andy asked Tyler.

Tyler looked at Andy a moment trying to figure out which
part of `all this' he meant.

"Umm. Do you mean us?" Tyler asked slowly.

"I um. no that isn't what I meant. But that is a good
subject since you brought it up." Andy said.

Tyler felt sick. What was he going to say. How could he
explain to Andy his feelings when he is not used to showing
his own feelings or have someone show affection towards him.
Could he just come out and tell Andy he loved him? He was
sure that was how he felt. He was sure it was love. But
could it be this quick?

"Well, what do you want me to say?" Tyler said turning a bit
pale.

"Look, don't worry. If you don't want to talk about it that
is fine. But there is something I want you to know." Andy
said walking closer to Tyler.

"Ok." Tyler said.

Andy took a deep breath then started. "I don't know what
happened to me yesterday sitting in McDonalds. I seen you
and something came over me. Truthfully it was more than I
have ever felt for anyone. I can't explain it. I just..  I
guess I see something in you that maybe you don't see in
yourself. Something I need to complete me in some way. Tyler
I really care for you and I don't want to lose you. Yeah, I
realize you just came into my life, but like you said this
morning to me. I don't want you to go away."

Tyler took a moment to let it all settle then took a deep
breath of his own. "I understand completely what you are
saying. There is a lot for you to learn about me yet. Some
you may not like, but promise me this. When you do find out
about it, please don't run from me. I don't think I can
handle much more. If you want out because of anything you
find out just be honest, alright?"

"I really can't think of anything that would make me want to
push you away." Andy said grabbing Tyler's hand. "What I am
about to say next is exactly how I feel and there is not
other way to explain it. Tyler, I love you. I really do. It
may seem too sudden but I can't deny it and I don't want to
hold it back. I feel like I have known you my whole life and
I want to get to know you better."

Tyler looked deeply into Andy's eyes. He just couldn't get
over how he felt at this moment. This feeling was much like
Andy's. He didn't know how to explain it, but it was
definitely there.

"Andy, I really do love you too!" Tyler said while starting
to cry.

Andy pulled Tyler into his arms and held him tight. He knew
Tyler needed this. Like he didn't have anyone else to love
and care for him. Andy right then swore to himself he would
do just that for as long as he could breath.

The two were standing in the driveway enclosed in each
others arms when Uncle Mark drove up the driveway. They let
go of one another as they noticed and waited for him to
stop.

"Hiya boy's!" Mark said getting out of the truck. "What's
with all the hugging?  You're leaving your Uncle Mark out!"
He said looking back and forth between the two.

"Sorry!" Andy said stepping up to his uncle and giving him a
hug.

"Aww, no hug's from the new kid here?" His uncle said.

Tyler hesitated a moment then walked up and gave Mark a hug.
Andy noticed as he backed away he was blushing a bit.

"Much better." Mark said. "Hey, I have someone for the both
of you two meet.

They all turned around then and noticed a man in his mid-
thirty's standing by the truck.

"This is David" Mark said with a smile. "He's going to be
here for the evening."

"Hi!" Andy said. He'd noticed the man wasn't bad looking for
his age. Fairly fit, brown hair and slim.

"Hello boy's." David said greeting them.

"Tyler, will you be staying the night? It's already
afternoon and I think we can set up some pretty good plans
for the night." Mark asked Tyler.

"I guess I can." Tyler said rather unsure.

"You guess?" Mark said. "Look, I don't mean to be too pushy.
I guess I don't know the story between you two. However,
from what I seen as I drove up the driveway, you two are an
item?"

The two looked at each other unsure themselves what they
were. Evidently it took to long so Mark spoke again.

"Well, regardless of what you two are it doesn't matter to
me. Tyler I will be honest with you up front. This is my
boyfriend" He said making a motion towards David. I am gay.
So there really isn't any reason to be embarrassed around
here or around me about what you are. Alright?"

Tyler nodded but didn't say anything. And Andy smiled at his
uncle. He knew he was very lucky to have an uncle like Mark.

"David and I are going to go inside and fix some lunch for
us all, sound good?" Mark asked breaking the silence.

The two boy's shook their head `yes' and Mark and David
walked in the house.

"Well what do you say we go help them? Andy asked.

"Sound good!" Tyler said and the two walked inside.

Everyone spent the next several hours fixing dinner then
eating it. After that they played cards, then went outside
and played some horseshoes. This game Tyler had heard of but
thought it to be pretty lame. Now that he'd played it, it
wasn't lame at all. He had the most fun with exception of
last night he had ever had in his life.

"Tyler, it's rather late! Do you need to call someone?" Mark
asked Tyler.

"No, I'll be fine." Tyler said turning his attention back to
the XBOX him and David were playing.

"Have you talked to anyone since you left your house
yesterday?" Andy asked.

Tyler didn't say anything for a moment. It seemed he was
trying to avoid such questions.

"No, I don't need to call them, it's alright. really!" Tyler
said trying to sound convincing.

"Well, if you need the phone it's in the kitchen or you can
use the one in my office upstairs." Mark said walking off
into the kitchen to where Andy was peaking thru the doorway
motioning him in.

"Yeah?" Mark said to Andy quietly as he walked into the
kitchen.

"I don't get it." Andy said looking concerned. "He's been
that way since last night. It's like he doesn't want to talk
about his family. He has not told me anything about them and
he said something earlier about being worried I would not
want to talk to him after I found out something. But I don't
know what."

"Oh. Well, he may open up to you. You may just have to give
him time. Just be patient, with him. I have a feeling he's
had it rather rough. He's extremely quite and seems to be
worried about `being a burden' even though he's never
actually said it."

"Yeah.." Andy said agreeing. I just don't know what to do
now! He's grown attached to me and just seems he doesn't
even want to go home. Although I wouldn't complain, it's
just that. I don't want him to get into trouble!"

"Just continue being how you are towards him. I know you
really care for him, I can see it. Just don't push him,
alright?" Mark said.

"ok" Andy answered.

The two walked back into the family room and sat down on the
couch watching the other two play the game. After a while
they were each taking turns playing `PGR3' racing each
others times. In the end it was Tyler who won. He seemed
really happy about this, almost as if he'd never won
anything in his life, but didn't seem to gloat about it too
much.

"Tyler, Andy you two can go shower first if you like." Mark
said after the third time Tyler won in a row. "Besides, I
can't take getting beat that much by someone so much younger
than me!"

"Sure thing!" Andy said grinning at Mark.

The two got up and walked upstairs.

"I don't have anything to change into." Tyler said as they
reached the top of the steps.

"Yes you do!" Andy said walking into a room off to the left
and opening a drawer. "Boxers or boxer-briefs?" Andy asked.

"Uhm, boxers will be fine I guess." Tyler said shyly.

Andy threw Tyler a pair of boxers and an extra pair of
shorts.

"There ya go! If you want you can go first! I'll wait!" Andy
said pointing to a door on the other side of the room.

"Alright." Tyler didn't say anything else but walked into
the bathroom and closed the door.

Thirty minuets later the two were done with their showers
and ready for bed.

"So. how do you want to sleep?" Tyler asked.

"Honestly, I was hoping I'd get to sleep with you. But I
have to call my mom before I go to bed."

"I was hoping you would say that!" Tyler said with a bit of
a grin.

The two got into bed and Andy placed the call to his mom
assuring her all was ok, and he was at his Uncle Marks for
the night. He told her he loved her and hung up.

"So, you are your mom are really close huh? Tyler said
turning to look at Andy.

"Very! I wouldn't know what to do without her." Andy said.

"That's awesome." Tyler said looking a bit sad.

"Tell me something. Are you close to your family at all?"
Andy asked.

"Not at all actually. I avoid them as much as possible. But
can we not discuss this right now? Please?"

"Sure thing.. C'mere." Andy said pulling Tyler up to his
body and wrapping his arms around him. "I love you Tyler. I
really do love you." He finished with a hug.

"And I love you. Can we not talk but just lay here?" Tyler
said resting his head on Andy's chest.

"I could lay here forever with you and not talk... Goodnight
Tyler." He said kissing the top of Tylers head.

"Goodnight. and thank you. for everything." Tyler said after
a moment of silence, then squeezed Andy's body.


***I do plan more chapters to this. Sorry, but it took
longer to finish this one up because I have not had a lot of
computer time here recently.

Thanks a lot for you emails also. This IS my first story and
I am glad to hear that so many of you like it. If I didn't
respond to your emails it's because the "bulk" folder ate
em.  If you had any important questions please feel free to
send another email. I didn't have my account ready for so
many! But I am ready now!

Also, some of you had noticed that one of the Charactors had
the same name as me. That's simply because when I started
this story I had not intentions to post it. I just used that
name because it was there and I didn't take the time to
think about any. SO, the story has nothing to do with me or
my life in case you are planning to ask.***
