TEDDY AND THE "FULL SANTOS"

Thanks to Doris Robinson, 12 y/o Teddy Livingston's reputation as a
trustworthy babysitter spread like wildfire through the neighborhood; this
was after he had managed to have a mini-orgy with her oversexed twin 7-y/o
sons, Tod and Scotty (SEE "Teddy and the Twins"). All Mrs. Robinson was
aware of however was, when she and her husband arrived home, she found
Teddy sound asleep with a pajama clad twin securely snuggled in each arm,
and later, how the twins begged her to make Teddy their regular sitter.

It was the following Saturday morning when Teddy's mother received a call
from Luda Garcia; the Garcias were new arrivals in the neighborhood and one
of only two Spanish families in the area. It was the Garcia's 10th wedding
anniversary and they wanted to spend an evening dining and attending a
concert in the city. Mrs. Garcia was so pleased to hear from Doris Robinson
that Teddy was a wonderful, respectful and sensitive boy who got along so
well with his charges because she had a special concern with her son
Santos. Santos had just turned 9 y/o and was extremely shy. Because of that
he had no friends and participated in no extra-curricular activities in
school; he even insisted that his father, a doctor, give him a note
excusing him from gym class. He was, Luda told Teddy's mother, "practically
a hermit."

Mr. Garcia told Mrs. Livingston that they would need Teddy at their house
by 2:30 because they had a long drive into the nearest large city and a
preconcert dinner planned with some friends.

As Teddy departed for the Garcia's house early that afternoon for his
sitting assignment with young Santos, he was reminded by his mother that
young Santos was very shy and Teddy should try to be understanding. "You
remember," she said, "that you used to be the same way but somehow that
nice friend of yours got you over it -- I don't know what he said to you
but perhaps you could say the same things to Santos."

Teddy smiled, remembering the things that his friend Bryan said -- and more
importantly what he did -- to him to get him over his shyness and, having
been reminded of that, he was more anxious than ever to get to his sitting
assignment. 'This,' he said to himself, 'could be a GREAT night.'

"And do watch your language Teddy," his mother told him as he was about to
peddle off, "sometimes your language is a bit to rough for young ears."

Teddy assured her that he would be careful about what he said, and that was
the absolute truth. Teddy had no problem minding his tongue -- it was his
other body parts that often misbehaved.

When Teddy pulled his bike into the driveway of the Garcia's beautiful
ranch style home, a black chauffeur-driven limousine was already waiting to
whisk the Garcias off to the distant big city.

Teddy rang the bell and was greeted by a tall, thin, exquisitely dressed
olive-skinned man.

"Good Afternoon Senor Garcia," Teddy greeted him, using the form of address
he learned on the Internet that morning. He then continued with his
carefully rehearsed introduction while offering a hand to shake, "I'm Teddy
Livingston and I'll be staying with your son Santos this evening while you
and the Senora are away."

Teddy was told by a wise teacher once that first impressions are lasting
impressions so he tried his damnedest to come across as someone who was
professional and unquestionably trustworthy.

"Well its a pleasure to meet you Senor Livingston," Dr. Garcia said with a
large smile and a firm handshake. "I am Doctor Rubin Garcia, may I call you
Teddy?"

"Of course Doctor Garcia!" Teddy responded realizing that his "senor"
references just went out the window.

"And you are free to call me Rubin if you wish," Dr. Garcia said, "there is
no need for formalities between us.

"Please," Dr Garcia continued, "just follow me and I'll show you to Santos'
room." As they were walking through the fabulous living room toward a
bedroom corridor Dr. Garcia told Teddy, "There will be a list of emergency
numbers in the kitchen and also some money if you want to order food and
also there is a list of other things you should know. Santos' is quite shy
so don't take it personally if he seems distant -- just try to be his
friend and I'm sure everything will work out."

"I think I may be able to help him so he is not so shy." Teffy offered.

"That would be wonderful and greatly appreciated," the doctor
responded. "Right now, Santos is taking an afternoon nap." he continued, "
He was told that his mother and I would be gone by the time he finished his
nap and he knows that you will be there to wake him up." When they arrived
at the bedrooms, Dr. Garcia put his hand on the first door on the
left. "This is Santos' room," he said, "good luck!"

With that the Doctor was gone, back through the living room toward the
front door.

Teddy entered the room and saw the boy, dressed in yellow patterened
pajamas with short sleeves and two lovely bare feet sticking out of the
pajama legs. He slept with his back toward Teddy in a double-size bed.

Teddy went right to the bottom of the bed where Santos' delightfully small
feet were waiting for his attention -- young boy feet were his major
obsession. Not wanting to wake the boy just yet, Teddy was careful to use
his nose, hands, lips and tongue very lightly as he first smelled what was
to him the intoxicating aroma of boy feet. He then caressed and kissed the
sole of each foot and ran his tongue lightly between the toes. Santos slept
on through all this and, rather than taking a chance on waking the boy
while he worshiped his feet -- and perhaps traumatizing him, he left the
foot of the bed and moved to sit on the side of the bed.

Teddy put a hand on the boy's shoulder. Santos mumbled something in his
sleep and moved just a bit but was soon back in dreamland. Teddy ran his
hand inside the back of Santos pajama top and reveled in the feel of the
smooth skin. Running his hand over Santos side and onto his bare tummy he
called very softly, "Santos! Its time to wake up!" Santos was awake
instantly.

Santos slowly turned so that Teddy could now see his face and Teddy was
pleased with what he saw. Santos had fine sharp features; he was no beauty
but his face had a certain charm; his eyes were large and not brown as
Teddy had expected, but a beautiful almost emerald shade of green.

Teddy still had his hand on Santos bare tummy and he gently stroked
it. This finally made Santos aware that he had a strange hand on his skin;
he moved away just enough to force Teddy to remove his hand.

By now, Santos was staring at this handsome 'anglos' face and then, as if
he remembered something, he gave a shy smile. "You must be Teddy," he said.

"Yes," Teddy replied with a smile of his own, "and I'm very happy to meet
you."

Santos said nothing and simply turned back over on his left side, putting
his back once again to Teddy.

Teddy took a firm grasp on his shoulder and rolled him over so he was
laying in his back. He began stroking Santos' chest and stomach through the
pajama top. He spoke to the boy softly.

"Santos," Teddy said, "You and I are going to become best friends
today. There is no need to be shy around me. Have you ever had a best
friend before?"

Santos didn't reply but shook his head to give his answer.

"Well now you do Santos and I will show you how best friends act around
each other. To start with, best friends tickle each other," he said as he
began gently poking Santos in the ribs.

Santos giggled and squirmed as Teddy continued the tickle torture.

"Hey!" Teddy said in a friendly voice, 'we're supposed to be tickling each
other so start tickling.

It took Santos a minute to get the idea but then he attacked Teddy's ribs
with his fingers curled into claws. Teddy quickly let Santos get the best
of him and was soon squirming on the bottom of the bed while Santos sat on
him tickling his ribs. Finally Teddy shouted, "Enough. I give up!"

It was too soon for Santos however, he kept tickling and laughing at
Teddy's antics until Teddy grabbed him in a bear hug and turned the
tickling match into a wrestling match that lasted almost 15 minutes. During
the "match" Teddy had his hands on every part of Santos' young body but
Santos was having too much fun to notice. Santos was, of course, the
ultimate winner when Teddy again 'gave up' and both boys were laying on
their backs panting. Teddy had to admit to himself that Santos was a pretty
strong kid and was very close to really winning.

"Boy you're good!" Teddy said to a beaming Santos. "and strong. I'll bet
you exercise a lot."

"A little!" Santos hesitantly admitted. "Daddy has an exercise room and
sometimes I go in there just to fool around with the machines."

"Well it sure seems to be working! You put up a good fight tough guy,"
Teddy said as he playfully punched Santos in the arm.

"You did too!" the smiling Santos said as he punched back.

"Well anyway, we're all sweaty now -- how about a quick shower to cool off?

Santos said nothing but blushed slightly, knowing that Teddy was talking
about the two of them taking a shower together.

"I don't need a shower," Santos said quickly, "but you can take one in
there." He pointed to a door on one side of the room.

Teddy figured that Santos would not be so quick to get naked in front of
him and decided that the best strategy was to let Santos see that naked was
no big deal.

Teddy got up off the bed, quickly stripped off his shirt and started
unbuckling his pants. Santos looked like he wanted to say something but he
didn't -- he just watched as Teddy's pants fell to the floor and were
kicked away. Leaving Teddy standing facing Santos in just slightly bulging
blue underwear briefs.

"Come on in the bathroom with me so we can talk while I'm getting over the
beating you gave me." Teddy said as he smiled. He started walking toward
the bathroom and turned to see if Santos was following.

Santos, somewhat shocked over the ease at which Teddy undressed in front of
him, was still sitting on the bed, staring.

"Well comeon," Teddy said, waving him over, "you're not going to make me go
into a strange bathroom all by myself are you?

Santos giggled because he knew Teddy was just being silly.

"Who knows," Teddy said in a spooky voice, "what I might find in
there. Snakes? Tarantulas?"

Giggling like a mad man now, Santos finally got up off the bed and made his
way to where Teddy was standing just outside the bathroom door. As he got
close enough, Teddy grabbed his hand.

"Hold my hand Santos, I'm scared of snakes."

Santos relented and, with a big smile on his face, led Teddy into the
"dangerous" bathroom.

Teddy steered Santos to the toilet, put the cover down and planted Santos
there. "You sit there and protect me now OK?"

"Sure," Santos said but the smile was slowly leaving his face -- he knew
that Teddy would be stripping off his underwear any moment now and it made
Santos nervous. He had never been in a room with a naked boy before and
what worried him most was that he was looking forward to this first time.

Just as he was having that thought, it came true. Teddy, intentionally
standing facing Santos, pulled down his underwear revealing his almost 5"
cock standing at half mast.

Santos looked and then turned his head so it didn't seem as if he was
staring. It was then that Teddy kicked off his underwear in Santos'
direction and they hit him in the side of the face.

Teddy started laughing then and soon Santos joined him -- in that moment
both of them forgot that Teddy was naked -- they were just enjoying the
crude humor of Santos getting slapped in the face by Teddy's briefs.

Teddy stepped in the shower and pulled the shower curtain closed. Santos
could hear the water running and then the shower head coming to life.

The next thing Santos heard was whistling! It took him a minute to identify
the song and when he did he burst out laughing. Teddy was whistling the
Jimminy Cricket song about being afraid.

Teddy heard the laughing and then stuck his head out. "You sure you won't
join me? I could sure use some help washing my back."

Santos didn't answer and Teddy's head disappeared. What happened next took
more courage than Santos knew he had. He unbuttoned his pajama shirt, took
it off, pulled his pajama pants and underwear down together, kicked them
toward Teddy's briefs and he then stepped into the shower.

Teddy had no idea until he felt a tap on his back and heard Santos: "If you
hand me the soap, I'll wash your back for you."

"Thank you bud!" Teddy said as he turned just a quarter turn and handed the
bar of soap to Santos. As much as he wanted to, Teddy knew that this was
not the right time to turn around and check out Santos' 'goods' -- that
will come soon he thought to himself, very soon now.

The feel of Santos hands on his back, diligently soaping everything from
the base of his neck to the very top of his butt cheeks, did not enrage his
cock as he thought it might -- the feeling was relaxing not sexual.

"When you're ready," Teddy told Santos, still standing with his back to
Santos, "I'll return the favor and wash your back."

Instead of hearing something like "OK" in response, Santos said, "It's OK,
you can turn around now -- I don't mind." The amazing thing to Santos was
that he really didn't mind -- he wasn't just being 'brave.' He realized
from the way that Teddy was behaving that he really did -- at last -- have
a friend and this proved it. Here they were naked in the bath tub together
and Santos wasn't even a bit embarrassed.

Teddy turned and nearly drooled at the beautiful naked body in front of him
-- he finished rinsing himself off and watched as Santos soaped his chest,
tummy, legs and finally -- but very quickly -- his genitals. Then he turned
his back to Teddy and handed Teddy the bar of soap. As promised, Teddy
lovingly washed Santos Shoulders and neck, his upper and lower back and
then ran a quick hand over the light brown cheeks of Santos' butt. As he
did that he lightly whacked Santos on a butt cheek and said, "OK tough guy,
rinse off!"

Their bodies touched gently and briefly as they exchanged places in the
tub. That brief skin-to-skin contact sent chills through both boys.

When they finally stepped out of the shower onto the cold tiled floor and
the conditioned air hit them, the very last remnants of Teddy's boner
disappeared. Santos grabbed two big fluffy towels from a cabinet and handed
one to Teddy.

They each dried themselves off and, while doing that, each one checked out
the others equipment. Santos saw Teddy's now shriveled circumcised cock and
noticed the small patch of pubic hair sitting right where the cock met his
pubic area. He had never seen a circumcised cock before and thought he
might like one like that instead of one like his with the skin hanging down
like whatever it was intended to cover was missing. Teddy, for his part,
was just enjoying the view -- as a general rule, almost any naked boy was
OK with Teddy but this one, with his dark brown complexion was special --
rather exotic. Add to that his sweetness and innocence and he was
absolutely HOT!

Even though the need for modesty was long gone, each boy automatically
wrapped his towel around his waist before opening the bathroom door. When
they stepped back into the bedroom, they were half way to the bed when
Santos again surprised Teddy by wrapping his arms around him and hugging
him with his cheek buried in Teddy's chest. With some emotion in his voice
Santos told Teddy: "Thank you for being my friend."

Teddy himself was then overwhelmed by a different kind of emotion, the
closeness, the hugging and the skin-to-skin contact caused an instant
erection that Santos suddenly felt pressing against his tummy -- it didn't
take long for Santos' own erection to grow and for Teddy to feel it against
his leg.

"This is something," Teddy said unsteadily, "that happens sometimes between
close friends Santos."

"You mean my boner?" Santos said breathing a little heavily.

Teddy giggled. "No, actually I was talking about MY boner.

"Santos?" he said a moment later as the hug went on.

"What?" Santos asked.

"You do know what to do about boners don't you?" Teddy asked.

"Kinda," Santos admitted, "I know it feels good just to rub it when it gets
like that."

"Yes it does but it feels even better to let someone else rub it." Teddy
suggested.

"Is it OK for us to do that? the shocked Santos asked.

"Lets go to the bed." Teddy responded rather than answering directly. He
bent down and grasped Santos by his butt and picked him up to carry him to
the bed. Santos instinctively wrapped his legs around Teddy's waist and
when he did that, his towel fell away and now Teddy could feel Santos' tiny
erection and his testicle sack right up against his stomach. He looked at
Santos and saw that his eyes were squeezed shut.

"Are you alright little buddy?" Teddy asked.

"I just never felt anything like this before -- my wiener is touching your
bare stomach and it feels like it wants to explode."

They reached the bed and Teddy laid Santos down with his butt right on the
edge of the bed and his feet hanging down. Teddy dropped to his knees and
started caressing Santos' erection, pulling the skin down slowly until the
little purple helmet popped out. When Teddy put his tongue on that exposed
part of Santos' penis Santos jumped and squirmed. He was making noises, not
unlike loud purring noises coming from deep in his throat and then he
started thrusting motions, driving his erection harder and harder against
Teddy's sucking lips and constantly moving tongue. When Santos' climax
finally came he screamed AHHHHH and at last collapsed flat and motionless
against the bed.

"Teddy hold me!" he whimpered, "that scared me!" and Teddy did as asked. He
moved Santos farther up on the bed and then crawled up next to him, wrapped
the boy in his arms and lay there with him, cheek to cheek, until Santos
drifted off to sleep -- the nearly inevitable result of a boy's first
climax.

When Santos was sound asleep from the exhausting experience Teddy
rearranged him so he was laying the right way on the bed and he then began
exploring the beautiful light brown body of the sleeping boy.

Santos had large dark nipples that felt rough to Teddy's lips and
tongue. His skin, however, leading down to his belly button was as smooth
as silk. After tonguing his innie for a minute he was soon back at Santos'
now soft penis. Always amazed by the uncircumcised penis he played there
for quite a while, licking and sucking the penis and, moving on, he
discovered two very small testicles residing in the small sack between
Santos' legs. The journey to Santos relatively tiny feet was swift because
a young boy's feet were one of Teddy's major, but secret, obsessions. He
sucked on each toe and ran his tongue through each of the eight slots
between Santos' toes.

As he worked his mouth and tongue around Santos' feet he felt himself
coming closer and closer to a major eruption of his now throbbing 5-inch
cock. It happened as he was licking the sole of Santos' left foot.

Teddy cleaned himself and the bed as best as he could and then crawled back
up, to lay down next to Santos. Once again he wrapped Santos in his arms
like a stuffed toy.

Santos awoke about 30 minutes after Teddy had drifted off into a sound
sleep. He mind was heavy with the memory of his experience and he vividly
remembered the feeling of Teddy's lips and tongue as they brought him to
the most painfully beautiful experience of his young life.

Santos shuddered just remembering that moment and the exquisite peace he
felt as he drifted off to sleep. 'It certainly wasn't a dream!' Santos
thought to himself as he moved his hand around to feel the naked body
spooned into his.

Santos wriggled himself out of Teddy's embrace and turned facing
Teddy. Purely out of some instinct he didn't know, he had he leaned into
Teddy and kissed him on the lips; he then moved down the bed to confront
the thing that fascinated him most, Teddy's circumcised cock. It was not
large now, just maybe as long as Santos' own member when it was fully
excited.

Santos reached and lightly touched Teddy's flaccid cock and he jumped
because as he touched it, it moved. He tried again and this time it only
stirred a bit. 'what would it feel like in my mouth' Santos asked himself
and then quickly decided to find out.

Teddy was sleeping on his side in a semi-fetal position so when Santos
tried to move his face into the small area left between Teddy's stomach and
legs he found it didn't fit very well. 'Perhaps I can move him to his back'
he told himself. Santos placed a hand against Teddy's hip and pushed. It
kinda worked, Teddy rocked up a bit but then landed right where he
started. Santos pushed again -- this time harder and he heard Teddy mumble
something -- Teddy then rolled over on his back and even conveniently
spread his legs a bit.

Santos crawled over to Teddy's side and once again touched Teddy's penis --
as he did, it started growing -- it grew until it was just standing away
from Teddy's body. Santos figured he had better do what he intended to do
before it grew any more so he pulled himself up enough to touch his tongue
to the tip. That triggered another growth spurt and soon it was standing up
at its full height. The taste on Teddy's tongue was slight and not bad, so
he went back for more.

On his knees, straddling Teddy's right leg, Santos leaned down and took
hold of the shaft of Teddy's penis and moved his hand up and down, just as
Teddy had done to him. As he did that, some oily looking liquid started
coming out of the slit at the tip. Teddy sampled some on his tongue and
discovered he liked it. Grabbing Teddy's erection again he worked his hand
up and down more -- lots more ? and eventually he started to feel it
pulsing. Just as Santos leaned over to look at the top of Teddy's cock
again, expecting to see more of the oily substance, a stream of cum shot
out of the tip and splattered on his forehead.

Teddy woke just as he ejaculated and was surprised to see Santos leaning
over his erection with cum dripping from his face. "Santos!" he called.

"I'm sorry Teddy!" Santos said.

"Sorry for what little bud?" Teddy asked. "That was a great way to wake
up!"

"I thought I hurt you. What was that stuff that came out?" Santos asked as
he wiped that stuff off his face where it has leaked down from his
forehead.

Teddy chuckled. "That stuff was what will be coming out of your in a few
years. They call it semen! Anyway it didn't hurt it felt just like you did
when you climaxed before."

"Climaxed?" Santos queried.

"Yes that's what the call it when you reach that point where it can't feel
any better -- but then it does."

Santos smiled at the memory, "That was very special." he said wistfully.

Then Santos sat up and said, "We need to shower again don't we?"

Teddy smiled. "Yes that would probably be a good idea before the sticky
stuff dries too much."

"This time," Santos asked hopefully, "can I wash you all over?"

"You bet, little buddy," Teddy answered, "IF, that is, I get to wash you
all over too."

In the shower they did just that, they handled every inch of each other's
bodies as they soaped each other up. Soon Santos had a raging erection and
Teddy lovingly milked it, sucked on it and massaged it until Santos
experience the second orgasm of his young life. Santos was sure to return
the favor, jacking and kissing Teddy's erection -- carefully avoiding the
tip where last time he was shot in the head -- until his small hands and
eager tongue had worked Teddy into an intense, knee-buckling,
wall-splattering orgasm.

Later after ordering pizza Teddy developed a plan that would test just how
well his "anti-shyness" methods had worked on Santos.  Santos was most
certainly not even the least bit shy around Teddy but, Teddy thought, how
about the pizza delivery guy.

He told Santos what he wanted him to do: "Santos, when the pizza guy gets
here I would like you to go to the door by yourself and pay him."

"OK," Santos said after some thought. For some reason that didn't seem to
be as big a deal as it would have seemed yesterday.

"But," Teddy continued, "I'd like you to do something just a bit naughty."

Santos got a worried look on his face. "What do you want me to do?"

"Do you have a bathrobe?" Teddy asked.

"Yes." Santos answered slowly, starting to understand what Teddy was going
to ask. "You want me to go to the door with just a bathrobe on?"

"Exactly," Teddy said enthusiastically, "but don't tie it closed, just let
it hang. The pizza guy won't be able to see your privates but he'll know
you're naked under the robe and he'll probably get excited."

Unexpectedly, Santos began laughing very hard. He saw Teddy looking at him
curiously and managed to say: "maybe instead of giving the pizza guy a tip
I should just open my robe all the way and say, 'here's your tip Mr. pizza
guy!'" With that, both boys lost it in a fit of belly laughs.

Fifteen minutes later, the two still naked boys were sitting on the floor
in front of the TV, leaning up against each other. Santos jumped when the
door bell rang, he ran to his bedroom and came back just seconds later
still putting his arms into a white bathrobe. He pulled it together without
tying it and faced Teddy.

"How do I look?" he asked with a devilish grin.

"Perfect" was the only answer that fit, because he did look perfect --
perfectly sexy.

Teddy was actually amazed as he watched Santos confidently walk to the
door, without a moments hesitation, and open it to reveal a high
school-aged boy with two pizzas in his arms.

"HI!" Santos greeted him.

"Well . . . uhhh . .. hi," the already flustered pizza boy replied. "I
. . . uhhh . . . I got your pizzas."

"Great," Santos replied, holding his hands up to grasp the pizzas. As he
held his hands up his robe opened almost all the way and the sweating pizza
boy was treated to the "full Santos."

The pizza boy just stared and stared, perhaps memorizing every wrinkle on
Santos' foreskin. Santos finally snapped him out of it by asking, "Uh, how
much do I owe you?"

"Owe me?" the flustered boy stammered, "oh for the pizzas -- that'll be
$32."

"OK," Santos said lightly, "I'll be right back."

Santos brought the pizzas to a still amazed Teddy -- amazed because Santos
hadn't acted a bit shy -- he acted as if he was enjoying displaying his
'personal effects' to a strange pizza kid. Teddy handed Santos $40.00 and
whispered, "tell him to keep the change."

"But," Santos said with an evil grin, "I already gave him his tip!"

"Teddy's laugh came from deep inside him. "I think I've created a monster,"
he said to the glowing Santos. "Go and give him the money so we can eat and
so you can loose that robe and I can stare at you're family jewels some
more.

Santos took the money, giggling and, in reality, more happy and free than
he had ever felt in his life. He took the money back to the pizza guy and
said, "Here! Just keep the change!" As he reached out his arm to hand over
the money he was sure to make his robe fall open again. The totally
flustered pizza kid snatched the money and ran for his car without even
thanking Santos for the tip -- or the show!

While they ate their pizza they watched a movie on the cable and then went
into Santos' room and played video games for several hours. By 10 o'clock,
Santos was a zombie -- and seemed to be falling asleep on his feet. Teddy
coaxed him into a pair of pajamas and then into his bed with the promise
that he would join him. Teddy threw on his shirt and pants and layed down
behind Santos and wrapped him in his arms. Before either boy knew it, they
were both sound asleep.

--REALITY CHECK--

Teddy awoke to bright sunshine! 'Oh my God!' he said to himself, 'I wasn't
supposed to be here all night. Maybe the Garcias never came home!' Then he
realized that he was in bed alone. Teddy got out of bed, opened the door to
the hall and heard voices in the kitchen. He walked in that direction and
could soon identify Santos' excited voice but he couldn't understand what
was being said.

When he stepped into the kitchen Santos almost knocked Teddy down as he
rushed over to greet him and wrap him is an enthusiastic hug.

"Good morning Teddy," Dr. Garcia said. I trust you slept well."

"I guess I slept too well! I never heard you guys come home and . . . jeez
its morning , my mom and dad are probably worried.

"Don't concern yourself about that," Mrs. Garcia said, "when we came home
and found you two cuddled up so comfortably we just decided to let you
sleep. I called your mother and she agreed that you can stay here until you
were ready to come home as long as you're home by dinner.

"And, Dr, Garcia added, "that won't be until after you've had one of Luda's
wonderful Spanish Omelette's for breakfast.

Teddy smiled and looked down at Santos who was still hugging him like he
was afraid to let go. "Well," Teddy said to the Garcias, "I certainly had a
wonderful time with Santos and I think you will find that he is a changed
boy!

"We already have found that to be true," the doctor said, "I don't ever
remember seeing him as animated as he is this morning . . ."

". . . or as happy," Mrs. Garcia added as she prepared breakfast.

"Or as happy, the doctor repeated. Teddy, you performed a small miracle for
us and we will always be in your debt for that. Santos has been here with
us for the past 45 minutes telling us all about his day with you and . . "
the doctor broke off his sentence when he saw Teddy stiffen up and loose
much of the color in his face.

"Teddy, he continued, "sit here at the table with us." Santos let him loose
from his hug and Teddy sat in an empty chair across from the doctor. "Luda
and I want you to understand this and understand it very clearly: the
physical and emotional intimacy that you and Santos shared yesterday was,
in Santos' view, a beautiful thing. Yesterday you acted as Santos teacher
as well as his friend and you helped him understand that he is a unique and
beautiful individual who no longer needs to hide from the world.

"God as my witness Teddy, neither Luda or I have anything but respect for
you; as far as we are concerned . . . all three of us," he said putting a
hand on Santos shoulder, "you are now and forever a member of this family
and are welcome here whenever you choose to visit and will certainly be
welcome as Santos only sitter when he needs company in our absence."

After a full breakfast that left Teddy overfull, he peddled his bike toward
his home. He was very relieved that the Dr. and Mrs. Garcia were such
wonderful and understanding people but he knew deep down that he had
narrowly missed being in the middle of a very large and very embarrassing
mess.

He also knew that he was who he was, and that was someone who could not
. . . would not live without expressing his love for young boys.

SANTOS:

In the weeks and months that followed, Santos developed into a very active
and popular boy at school and, eventually, had many other friends besides
his very best friend and new big brother, Teddy.

Oh yes! Santos asked his father to give him a circumcision and three weeks
later, at the hands of one of his father's colleagues, he received it.
Teddy was the first, but not the only one of Santos' friends, to see it.
