Those few words from Sam set my mind at ease immediately. I had been so caught up in my orgasm that I was un-aware that Sam had cum also. We stood up and I pulled at the front of my pants trying to get my wet sticky briefs away from my body .I glanced at the door realizing that at any time his grandparents could have walked in.
Sam had noticed me looking at the door.
"Don't worry about anyone coming in , I always lock my door and they knock and wait for me to tell them its OK before they come in ".
"That's cool , my room is on the second floor so I can hear anyone coming up the stairs ", I replied.
Sam nodded toward his en suite and said I could take a quick rinse if I wanted and that he had a pair of boxers I could borrow.
"Awesome , I'll be right out " .
I entered the bathroom and quickly stripped. I was amazed at the amount of goo in my briefs. I don't think I had ever shot that much , even when I jacked off thinking about Sam. There wasn't a tub but just a large shower , easily big enough for two . I wondered what it would like to shower with Sam. It was probably the fastest shower I had ever taken but I desperately wanted to talk to Sam about what had just happened but had no idea what I wanted to say. I heard the door open and saw Sam's hand as he set the boxers on the vanity while saying "here ya go ".
"Thanks Sam , I'll be right out " .
"Take your time bud, " he said as the door shut .
My mind was racing . I knew jacking off wouldn't cut it anymore but was worried that perhaps this was a one time thing and Sam wouldn't want to do it again . I felt anxious at the thought but pushed it away telling myself I'd find out soon enough. My thoughts then jumped to my parents, thinking how revolted they would be at what had just occurred. I also thought back to what my Dad had said at the police station, maybe it wouldn't be so bad. He did say that there wasn't anything as bad as bigots . But having his only son turn out gay could be a different story.
I dried off, placed my soiled briefs in the hamper, dressed quickly and opened the door to see Sam ready to enter with a towel wrapped around him.
" I'll be quick," he winked.
That wink , the smallest of gestures, made me feel much better . True to his word Sam was out in less than five minutes wrapped in his towel. He dropped the towel smiling , standing naked in front of me . I don't think at that point I could have done the same , at least not yet. My eyes started at face and went south from there. He was slightly built and needed to gain some weight I thought. He had a small amount of blond pubes and was cut. His penis was limp and looked to be in proportion to his body.
" What do you think" ? he asked.
Wow I thought with my mouth hanging open. Here was the best looking kid in our school standing bare assed in front of me. Where was the shy , timid kid who never said much?
" Well you look awesome but need to gain some weight" , I could see almost every rib on him.
" I know , but was hoping next time I get to check you out ", he giggled .
"You bet , next time " , I giggled back . Cool, I thought. Next time . There was going to be a next time. I guessed that our talk could wait.
"I've been was hoping we could spend some time in the weight room here and get into a routine, We could swim also, he said with hope in his voice."
" I'd like that Sam ", with I'm sure was a ear to ear grin.
We spent the rest of the afternoon bullshitting and talking about working out and when we could do so. Not once did we mention the trouble brewing with Todd. Before I knew it it was time for me to go home .
We hadn't mentioned our little sex play and I felt no reason to bring it up. Sam had unlocked the door after his shower so when we heard a knock at the door.
" Yeah " ?
His Grandma stuck her head in and asked if I'd like to stay for supper. I thanked her but told her "no ", not tonight as my folks were expecting me back home before 6 .
She said the offer was open anytime and I planned on taking her up on it. Anything to spend more time with Sam. My Sam I thought .
We made plans to bike to school the next morning. I pedaled home. My Dad's car was in the driveway and I could see him and Mom sitting in the living room. My Mom had already told him I had brought a friend home after school. During supper I told them all I knew about Sam but left out the whole Todd thing. They were horrified over what he had gone through and my Dad said he hoped bastard that had hit them had gotten a long jail term .
"Nope ," I replied . He blown his brains out shortly after the accident. My Dad said that that was too good for the prick.
The next morning Sam knocked on our door and I was ready. We biked to the path he had shown me the day before and shortly arrived at school locking our bikes together at the rack.
Once again we were early and I noticed Todd's crew sitting at their table minus Todd. I wondered where he was ? I didn't really care as long as he kept his distance. As far as I was concerned it was over but was sure he felt other wise. I knew I could easily kick his ass along with Jim if needed. I hoped it wouldn't come to that but if it did oh well.
Max joined us once again along with a his friend Chris . I had noticed these two hanging out together and was glad they decided to join us. The talk was mostly about Todd and his crew and the shit they pulled on the rest of the class. The more I heard the more I realized that most of them seemed OK when Todd wasn't around, but when he was they pretty much followed his lead.
I wondered what would happen if I could get them to hang with us and leave that bullying asshole high and dry ? I saw Jim leave his table and head towards the boys room . I told the guys to wait here and I'd be right back .
Jim went into the rest room with me right behind him.
The boys room was empty except us.
I begin with -" Jim, you seem alright and I'm not looking to be enemies but if you wanna go up against me your gonna lose and lose big. If you and Todd do manage to kick my ass I'll come after you and when I do you'll regret it , I promise you that " I said in a firm voice.
Jim face was as white as a sheet as he turned around when I had begun to speak. I was glad to see he was afraid. Like I said before I could be intimidating when I wanted to be. I didn't like it but it served its purpose.
He was stuttering somewhat as he replied " Um um um I don't want any trouble either Mike but Todd made me wait with him yesterday for you. I wasn't going to do anything , I swear , he just wanted me there in case he started to loose and then I was supposed to jump in on it. "
"That would have been a big mistake on your part. Listen , why do hang around with that creep? You could hang with us you know. Sam , Max and Chris have told me you guys all used to be friends before Todd decided to be an asshole. You know that when I asked Sam about you guys ,Sam wouldn't say a bad thing about any of you? Even after the way you guys have been treating him? "
I was on a roll now and didn't give him a chance to say a word yet. I needed to have my say.
" Do you even like Todd or are you just afraid of him? If you hang with us I'll make sure he leaves you alone just like I'm gonna do with anyone who sits at our table." I said with as much conviction as I could. I really wanted to rob Todd of numbers , if I could get some of his crew to defect to what I thought of as our side I knew more and more would join us,eventually leaving Todd the odd man out.
" I am afraid of him Mike , I think most of us are. But if I sit with you guys people will think I'm a queer too. " he answered in a small voice.
"Do you think I'm queer" in a menacing tone ?
" No No , nothing like that , I swear. "
" Has Sam ever tried anything with you ? Or anyone one? "
"Todd said he tried to get queer with him when Sam slept over at his house " he replied.
Wow, I thought. This was something I was un- aware of. Sam had slept over to Todd's house? I'd have to ask him about that. Not that it would change anything. I had a big time crush on Sam and nothing was going to change that. I just hoped he felt the same.
" And you just took his word for it? You never asked Sam about it? "
" Well Todd told everyone about it and we all just believed him. Why would he make something like that up? Sam has never denied it , and well , we just went along with Todd. "
Jim was looking down at his feet as he said that and I could tell he didn't feel good about it.
" Even IF , I repeat IF it did happen Sam is a good guy and I'm gonna make sure you guys stop hassling him or I'll personally get you guys one at a time and beat the living shit out each and everyone one of you. I'd rather be friends but if the shit doesn't stop ...... " I said .
" Well tell the rest of them what I said , I mean every word of it. You guys are welcome to sit with us and I'll stand with anyone who leaves Todd . I think you know what your doing is wrong . Think about what you'd feel like if you were in Sam's place. You must see what an asshole Todd is ? "
I really needed Jim on our side . I knew if I could get his supposed best friend to abandon him the rest would follow. Guys like Todd never really have friends ... just kids who don't want to get picked on and the best way to avoid that is to hang with the ones doing the picking.
" I'll talk to the rest of the guys and see , but your right Todd is an asshole and I do feel bad on how we've treated Sam and the other guys. " Jim said .
Just as was about to walk out the door it opened and our gym teacher stepped in and asked if everything was alright in here.
" Sure," I answered ," just taking care of business Mr. Perkins ". He was a big bastard and didn't put up with much guff from us kids.
"Well make sure it stays that way Mike. We have a quiet school here and I'm going to make sure it stays that way."
Well obviously he had read my previous schools record or had heard about my past from someone who had and was sending me a warning. It was ok I guess to turn a blind eye to a gay kid being picked on but not ok to stand up for one. I knew I'd have to be careful and settle any scores I had outside of school. That was ok with me , I could wait.
I left the bathroom and walked back into the cafe. All eyes were definitely on me. Sam was eying me anxiously as I sat down next to him. Max and Chris hadn't left and were also looking at me the same way.
"When you left we thought you were going to kick Jim's ass and when Mr. Perkins followed you in we thought he'd come out dragging you to the office." Max said in one long breath.
"Nah , nothing like that Max. Jim and I had a little talk and I wouldn't be surprised to see more of him in the future."
Max's face screwed up in a questioningly look and before I explain Jim walked up to the table.
He looked nervous as he began , " Look Sam I want to say how sorry I am for being such a dickhead towards ya and want you to know that it won't happen anymore. I feel bad and hope you'll forgive me. I'm going over to the rest of the guys and let them know what Mike and I talked about . I'll be right back. "
Sam face broke into a huge grin as he told Jim that there was nothing to forgive and he hoped they could go back to being friends like before all this shit happened.
Max and Chris's eyes were huge and both their mouths were hanging open. It was pretty comical to be sure. With that Jim walked off as our eyes followed him along with everyone else's in the cafe.
