Ok so this chapter will have a flashback to when we first meet me, Adrian and Jeremy. He actually asks me to do it since some people ask us how we meet and why he wanted the story about him, hard question because he doesn't even answer me. But in away i know he want to say something in that story. ****************************************************************************** >From the last chapter: We headed to the family room where my mom was sitting in the armchair. She looked at us motioning us to sit down on the couch. We both sat nervously in front of her. "I think we need to talk boys!" she said. "Umm about what?" I asked shyly. "Well I both want you to know that," she started, I looked at Jeremy who had some discomfort in is face. "What's wrong Jeremy, are you ok?" she said looking at him. "Yes, I think," he said nervously. "Well I saw you both this morning when I check and I would like to know " she started. I looked at Jeremy who showed fear in is face, because we got caught this morning. "And please tell me the truth, I won't get mad at you," she continued. Jeremy looked at me like if he was trying to know what I would say. "Mom. . . I . . . I'm . . . I'm gay and I love Jeremy," I blurted out. She looked at me and Jeremy and I could see Jeremy's eyes watering, she got up and walk to us and to my surprise and Jeremy's, she hugged us. "Thank Adrian for telling me the truth, you know that I love you and nothing will change," she said softly with love in her voice. "And Jeremy you are family has for now, so please do not worry, I just hope that the felling that Adrian has for you is mutual," she said. "They are," he said softly. He then hugged me and kissed me on the cheek and whispered in my ear, "I love you and you have the most fantastic mother on earth." Chapter Four: A New Friend After our wonderful weekend together it was back to school, he had a very good weekend my mother scared the shit out of us but after that it was marvelous, Jeremy stayed the Saturday night and got home in the Sunday evening around three P.M. "Hi Jeremy," I shouted has he was approaching our bus stop. "Hi sweets, how did you sleep last night?" he ask me, touching my hand will standing to my left. "You were not there with me," I replied shyly. "Yeah I know the feeling. I was feeling lonely to." We continued our chitchat for about two minute before the bus stopped with the usual screeching noise in front of us, we both hopped in and started our trek to the school for a new day of learning. The morning class where quite uneventful we both shared a class and then we headed to our own classrooms. When the lunch time arrived I was very hungry so I decided to head to the lunchroom, when I arrived there I saw Jeremy chatting with another student, but that student looked like he was two or three years older than us. When Jeremy saw me, he pointed me and the other guy looked at me and smiled. I approach them with a questioningly look on my face. "Hey Ady, come here I want you to meet someone" Jeremy shouted over the lunchroom noise. "Hi" was all I could say when I approach the guy. "Adrian this is Christopher, Chris this is Adrian my boyfriend" Jeremy said, the last past in a low tone. "Jer, what the hell?" I hiss with surprise in the fact that he just said that we were boyfriends. "Relax Ady, his ok with that don't worry I would not tell anyone just like that" Jeremy replied softly. "Hey nice to finally meet you Adrian" Christopher said extending his hand for me to shake. "Sorry that I can't stay more and chat with you but I need to go for my meeting with my staff, I'll catch you after school and we will explain everything." He waved and headed out of the lunchroom. "His staff?" I ask looking at Jeremy. Jeremy chuckle and grabbed my hand almost dragging me to the lunch line. We both toke our lunch and headed outside to eat somewhere more calm so we could talk. He explained to me that Christopher was a kind of student counselor and that he was also the founder of the little shop that we had in the school, where they sale some candies bar, soups, gum and chips even some condoms and girl's protection and that he was the chef editor of our school journal. He also told me that he was a friend since last year. "He does all that in the school?" I ask astonish by all what he was doing in the school. "Yes and last year he is the one who started the school journal" Jeremy said grinning. "Wow, his a busy guy!" "Yeah and I have to thank him for us to be together," he said slyly. "Hum, what do you mean?" "I'll explain to you later we have to get back in the school for the afternoon class, we will talk later." He said getting up. "Yeah ok" I said and whispered " I love you Jeremy." He grabbed me by the shoulder and looked around seeing that no one was watching us and quickly gave me a soft kiss on the lips. "Love you too," he said in a low tone before we were heading off to our next class. The afternoon was mostly boring. I was eager to know actually who was that Christopher and how his he the reason on why Jeremy and me are together. You know when you wish something to happen fast but you look at the clock like every five minute and minute seems like hours, well that was my afternoon I could keep my self concentrated on the task the teacher was asking us. Finally the bell that announces the end of class gave its sound. I was happy to finally know some more about Christopher. After stuffing my thing that I wouldn't need for my homework that night I decided to go join Jeremy at is looker. "Hey Adrian" Jeremy shouted over the corridor noise of student heading home. "Hi" was the only word I could get out when I saw Christopher approaching in the corridor. "Hey you two, come on," Christopher waved to us to fallow him. Jeremy just grinned and grabbed my harm pulling me to where Christopher was heading. We fallowed Christopher to where the little shop was, he opened the door and we fallowed him. We found our self in the kind of rear of the shop where they kept all the over stock there was a table in the middle, he showed us to sit down and toke some chips bags and a couple of soft drink and handed them to us. "So Adrian, I hope Jeremy is a gentleman with you," Christopher said grinning has I blush. "Umm yeah he his, " I said looking at Jeremy who was grinning ear to ear. "Go on, eat I know you both must be hungry, I know it's not that healthy but it's something." "Thanks, Chris." Jeremy said will opening a bag of chips and grabbing a soda. "No biggy," Christ said grinning. "So how did you two meet?" I ask. "Well it was last year I was ask by a teacher to help him" he said thoughtfully "What do you mean help him?" "Well I was kind of very depressed last year because of you know me being gay and all, I was scared but he showed me kindness and understanding." Jeremy answered. "I'll tell you from the beginning, if you what?" Christopher added. "Uh yeah ok tell me," I said sounding interest. "So It was last year about the middle of the year when a teacher approached me about a kid in his classroom that looks very depress, so she ask me to see what I could do, because I was known to be able to know anything I wanted from anyone." Christ started. ***Christopher's story starts here** I was busy in the office of the journal that I started two months ago, we still needed to add some thing in it so I was preparing for a meeting with all the others who join the journal. When Mrs. Morrison, one of the teachers in the school, came in to talk to me. "Hello Christopher," she said sitting on the desk, " I would like to ask you a favor?" "Oh ok, depend's on what it is," I said smiling. "Well there is a student of mine that look very depress, I was wandering if you could find out why he is like that?" she said. "What, Why don't we have counselors in the school for that?" I ask her. "Well we tried but he refuses to talk to an adult we don't know why." "Ok well, I could try but I can't promise anything thought, " I said in a matter of fact. "I know but at least you can try, and thank you Christopher." She said getting up to leave the room. "I knew I could count on you." She left a big brown letter size envelope on the desk and she was out before I could ask what it was. I toke the envelope and checked it, my name was written on it so I figure it was for me but before I could open it the other student of the journal came in so I shoved the envelope in my bag and started the meeting for the journal. After the meeting I needed to go to my next class for that afternoon, I was having difficulty concentrating because I wanted to know what was in that envelope. That evening after doing my homework, I decided to open the envelope in my room. **writer note: ok, really I was never the studious guy** The envelope contained one sheet with a small picture of Jeremy: Name : Jeremy Grade : second Age : just turn 13 Comment : We tried for about a month now to find out what was wrong. We decided to leave it to you, please destroy that paper after studying it, it must not be seen. Jeremy is someone that we believe to be shy, he as not much friends yet in the school he was transferred from another school this year. We have basically no info that we can share with you that are relevant. We have found that he usually goes to the library or the pool every lunch break. Christopher please do not tell anyone about this especially Jeremy, and we don't want him to feel that we are observing him. We count on you and thank you for helping we know you will do your best. Mrs. Morrison. "Well now I fell like Tom Cruise in Mission impossible." I chuckle to myself. After reading it all again I shredded the paper and put in my paper basket placing the picture in my bag, I prepared myself for bed. That night I dreamed of something weird, I was in the school pool and heard a big commotion in the locker room, when I entered the locker room I saw the principal talking with a police officer about a kid in the toilet stand before I could see anything one of the officer saw me and made me take my stuff, blocking my view to the stand, and exit the locker room. When I woke up, I had a strange feeling about it, but I push it in the back of my mind. I prepared myself for school but the feeling was still there. After getting to my bus stop I thought about that dream it was so real, I never felt that strange about a dream before. Before I realise it my bus was in front of me waiting for me to enter. "You coming in or what?" The old bus driver asked. "Oh yeah sorry, I was thinking," I replied getting in the bus. That feeling was buggy me all morning, when the lunch break arrived I decided to see if I could find Jeremy, I first went in the pool area but I couldn't find him there so I decided to check in the library but it was empty, just then I heard a commotion in the hallway, I check it out and saw Jeremy being pushed around by couple of older student. "Hey guys leave him alone would'you, " I shouted to the others. They just looked at me and shouted back to mind my own business, but it was enough distraction for Jeremy to flee, I tried to catch him but he was to fast. "Oh well I'll try to find him tomorrow," I though to myself, has I looked at my watch. "Damn I'll be late for my next class." The afternoon was uneventful like usual, the evening was not much either. When I got to bed that night I did the same dream, with the same result. I could keep that dream out of my mind the second day, when the lunch time arrived I decided to go check the library first, but has usual it was empty. "Oh well," I thought. "I'll check the pool and if his not there I might has well take a dip." So I headed to my locker to get my swim bag, when I arrived a the pool no one was there so I changed and toke the ordered shower before going in the pool. I first decided to go on the dive board, I always loved to dive and do acrobatic diving, after being in the water for about ten minute in the water I heard a loud thud in the locker room so I decided to go check, has I never had a lock on my locker at the pool, because I never carried anything of value with me in the pool locker. I entered the locker room silently to see who was there, to my surprise it was Jeremy but he was shuffling in his bag for something will sitting on the bench. I just keep silent and watch what he was up to, when I saw him take a rope out of his bag, I thought that it was weird, but then he got up and headed to the toilet stand. Then it hit me the dream, the boy in the stand, the police officer. "Oh god his not planning to, shit," I thought fallowing behind silently. When I saw him try to put the rope over some of the plumbing over the ceiling, then I knew that he was going to try to kill him self. I ran to the stand surprising him, he drop the rope and tried to pass by me to exit the locker room but I was fast enough to catch him by the shoulder. "Hey stop fighting now," I said has he was trying to break free of my grasp. "Let me go," he said in a scared tone. "Not until you stop twisting," I said straightening my grip on him. After that he stops moving and started to cry in my harm, to say the least I was shock by all that, I never thought I'll be stopping him committing suicide. I keep holding onto him will he was emptying him self crying in my harm, by that time I moved us both to the bench and sat down still holding him. By the time he started to take control of his emotion the bell has rang, I has happy that there was no class at the pool that afternoon. "You better now?" I ask him. He didn't reply. "Hey don't worry I'm not here to hurt you ok, I'm your friend." "Why would you what to befriend me?" he ask still sobbing a little. "Because I care for other that's why." "Why would you care for me when every one else pick on me?" "To tell you the truth, I care for other because it's my purpose," I said smiling. "What to you mean your purpose? Are you some kind of guardian angel?" he said in a sniff. "What? No I'm not, I'm a ordinary guy that like to help other that's all." I said smiling thinking that he thought I was a angel. "Please tell me why you where trying to kill yourself? You should know that it's not the way to fix your problem." "If I tell you you'll just beat me like the others." he said. "I would never hurt anyone for any reason, I never used my fist other than for protecting myself or other in need." I said in a matter of fact. "Do you promise?" he looked at me hopefully. "Yes, I promise to never tell any one and that I will not hurt you." "Well... I... I... I think that I'm gay" he blurt out. "And where is the problem with that? If I may ask?" I replied trying not to sound shock, in fact I was not really just surprise that he actually told me that. "Well it his the problem no one like me and they all think I'm a freak." "Well do you think you are? Because I don't." "What? No well not really, but why?" he looked at me like a was an Alien. "Tell you what, I promise not to tell, do you promise that you won't tell what I'm about to tell you?" I ask the boy in my harm. "I promise." Was all he said. "Well that kind of suffice, I think." I said a little nervous, because no one know about me not even my folks and I'm about to said it to a boy a barely know. "I'm gay too!" "Really you are?" his body relax a little. "Yes, but now you are the only one on earth that known's that." I said relaxing my harm around him to see if he would try to escape. To my surprise he didn't try to run he just looked at me like I was something that he never saw in is life. "Tell me, is that why you tried to kill yourself?" I ask him, I felt him tense a little in my harm, but I didn't want to scare him so I just continue to hold him softly. "Yes, no like me," he said starting cry again. "Well I like you, and I'm sure your parents like you more than you can imagine." He just stayed in my harm will the sob, I tried to comfort him by rub is back a little after about ten minute he regain control, I told him to stay here will I was going to change myself, he agreed so I let him go completely and let him sat on the bench will I changed. I decided not to go in the change room I had just to keep a eye on him. I didn't really think about giving him a show has I'm mostly very shy about showing my body even more in front of a little guy. I watch him trying to stretch to see me, I laugh in my mind. After I got dress I sat down beside him and we talk for about a hour, but I was happy that slowly he smiled. The bell rang announcing the end of the day but before I let him go I made him promise to comme see me every lunch time or whenever he needed to talk with someone. I also toke the rope and shoved it in my bag telling him that I would dispose of it, he thank and I let him go hoping that he would stay safe. After that day he came to see me almost each lunch time for about a week, one day thought Mrs. Morrison came in one of my class and ask me to follow her, I got my thing and followed her to the retreat room we have for turbulent kid. I was surprise to see Jeremy sitting at one of the desk he looked at me and I saw that he has being crying. "Christopher he ask to talk to you and you only," Mrs Morrison said concern. "It's ok," I said. "Can you leave us alone?" "Of course come get me when you are finish," she said closing the door. The day we talk more he was having a crash down and felt shitty after a couple of third grade has harassed him. After we finish talking and I was able to make him smile again, we both left the room and Mrs Morrison send him to the library for the rest of the period will she wanted to talk to me. "So can you tell me what was all this about?" she turn and looked at me after we enter her office. "Well I can say some things, but some are personnal." I said. "I can live with that just tell want you can tell me." "Well you where right he is a little depress and he got harassed this morning by older student," I said calmly. "Oh dear, can we do something?" she ask concerned. "Well make some one check on him if anyone harass him stop them, please he is still fragile," I said almost pleading. "Ok we will watch, don't worry." "Thank, I need to go or I'll be late for my next class, thank Mrs Morrison." I said standing up grabbing my bag. Thankfully the next day one teacher saw the student who was harassing Jeremy and put a stop to the it, I was glad that the last breakout he had was the last one he had. He came to see me almost every day after that and we became friends. **end of Christopher story** "Wow," was all I could say. "And I got a little worried this year because he started to come see me almost every day like last year, but about three week ago he stop to come see me I thought something happened," Christopher replied. "Sorry Chris, I forgot to tell you that's about when I meet Ady," Jeremy said. "It's ok I kind of figure it out when I saw you both chatting outside the other day," Chris said smiling. "And I think you really found your self a cute." I was blushing deep red after that comment and Jeremy was grinning madly. We continued to chat a little after that we all got our thing ready and headed outside to Christopher mother's car. "Do you want a lift boys?" she ask kindly. "Yes thank you ma'am," Jeremy replied. We all piled in the back seat of the car and headed home. I was happy to learn that I was with Jeremy and the fact that Chris told us that I was cute made me blush again, they both started to laugh when they saw me. "You are still thinking about what I said, aren't you?" Chris manage to say between laugh. I could just nod but I was happy. Jeremy grab my hand softly and gave it a squeeze looking in my eyes. ***************************************************************************** Well folks I hope you may have all figured it out that I am Christopher (I mean the writer, that's me) still it's not my real name. So yeah after buggy me hopelessly that I made an appearance in the story, Adrian is very happy. Ok now you all know the email is at the beginning of the story so please send me you comment I love to respond to my reader. For some of you who may ask if the story of Christopher is real well unfortunately it is. To many kid that find them self to be gay decided to commit suicide but you can help there are sings, I'm happy that I stop Jeremy, we never told it to anyone but he decided that we should use it also has a warning for everyone. It's not because young kids are full of up's and down in theyre mood that they can't fell depress or suffer depression and don't think that every kid has a very happy life, that's only a dream, life is very hard on all of us even on our children think about it. Now all that said I hope you enjoyed the story, again him very sorry about the long wait but life is not always easy. Cheers and Hugs.
