Part Eight
Jesse shook me awake. "Hey, Andy! Don't sleep all day! It's almost two o'clock!" ."Huh? What'd ya say?...." It sounded like I had cotton in my ears. I sat up, rubbing my eyes. "Don't sleep all day! We've got two songs to learn, remember?" Jess and I had made it a goal to learn two songs per day for the week we were at the beach house. "Wait a second, my ears are plugged up or something" I said. I tried several methods to get relief. They finally cleared when I held my nose and blew. "There. Now I can hear". " Want something to eat?" Jesse said as he made his way towards the door. "No........ I don't feel much like eating. I've got a little bit of a headache, too" I answered. Jesse stopped and turned to look at me. "You're not getting sick, are you?" he questioned. "I hope not" I replied, crawling out of the bed. "Shit, I'm sore all over. Every muscle hurts! What the hell did you do to me, Jesse?"
"I didn't do anything! You were doing it to me!" he smiled and said "You were really horny! You did it until you passed out!". Then his expression changed to a concerned one. "Andy, you don't look too good. Let me feel your forehead" He came over and put his hand on my head "Shit! Your burning up! Let me get my Mom's bag!" Jesse got his Mom's medical bag and put a thermometer in my mouth.
"Andy, you're sick" he said. "It's a hundred and one!". "Oh, crap!" I sighed and laid back down. "That sucks. I probably caught something from Linda" I whined. "Linda! Why Linda?" Jesse smiled. "Cause women are Aliens" I said, sounding depressed. Jesse howled. "Oh, man! I forgot about that! That was so funny last night! Where did you think that up, anyway?" I giggled, remembering the girls faces at the theater. "Oh, you liked that?" I asked as I snuggled down in the bed. "Yeah, totally freaked everyone out! Hey, Andy. About Linda and Faye" Jesse looked suddenly serious. "It's not all that bad, is it? I mean, I understand why you don't like it. Neither do I. In fact, I'm kind of scared of Faye. She's so aggressive. But look at it this way. Linda and Faye are super popular with everyone. Linda's Dad is rich and bought her a cool car. Faye's the head of the Dance committee, and we would probably benefit from dating them. Linda's a Sophomore, too. That would sure impress the other guys at school. You, a freshman, dating the prettiest, richest, most popular girl there. Faye's pretty, too. Other guys would be jealous of us. And we'd have the fun of knowing that the girls are making out with two faggots! I think that's kind of funny and sexy, in a way".
Don't ask me why, I just do!" he stated. "I know exactly what you mean!" I laughed.
"So, don't you see, if we go along with this, the worst that could happen is they decide they don't like us" Jesse said. He couldn't have even guessed what the worst would be, even though they did like us and that the four of us would be going out together for a long time to come.
I was sick. I spent the next two days in bed. Jesse, Mary, Linda and Faye all looked in on me, trying to get me feeling better. Linda was sick, too. She would slip over to see me when her Dad was out. Faye kept Jesse on edge, what with the way she would suddenly jump him without warning.
Like when Linda, Jesse and Faye were sitting on my bed. We were all talking when Faye suddenly grabbed Jesse and began kissing him. They rolled right over on top of me. "Hey, Watch it!" I cried, spilling the cup of tea Linda had made for me. "You're crushing my legs, you perverts! Get off!" I protested. "Faye! Stop molesting Jesse!" Linda giggled. I rolled away to set the tea cup on the night stand. As I did, Linda pulled up the blankets and jumped in bed with me. "Hello! What's this all about?" I said, being very suprised. "Well, I'm sick, too!" Linda smiled.
She spent most of that day sitting in bed with me, talking and laughing. Mary was home, so the girls didn't try to do anything more that sneak a few minutes of kissing here and there. Mostly we talked. Actually, I found Linda very fun to be with. She was as smart as she was pretty. Once I thought how much of a waste it was for her to like me, a gay boy. Then It hit me. Why shouldn't she like me? If she was enjoying it, then fine. I mean, I was never going to love her. I loved Jesse. But Linda was fun. I did like her. So, why shouldn't I go out with her.
That whole day she sat in bed with me, holding my arm, snuggled up against me as we talked. Jesse even brought us lunch in bed. He and Faye sat on the end of the bed, or on the floor. They would talk for a while then Faye would jump him and they'd roll about on the floor some more.
Linda and I kissed a bit, but something else important happened. We became friends. I knew when the girls left that evening that Linda and I would be good friends for a long time
Before we returned home from the beach house, it was official. Linda and I were 'boyfriend and girlfriend'. I teased Jesse that he and Faye were 'Master and Love slave'. He laughed, saying that was the way Faye liked it.
Linda referred to me as Andrew. Except when we were alone. Then she would call me Prince Andrew. I liked the attention, but I was uneasy being alone together. Fortunately, Jesse and Faye were never far away. Friday was the last day at the beach.
We got home Saturday morning and I went straight to bed. Jesse took care of me and Mary went to work. We were alone again and I felt better for it. "We officially have girlfriends now. I guess if we were under any suspicion, this will end it" I said as we lay in bed together "I wonder what the other guys will say?"
"Yeah, especially what they'll say about you and Linda" Jess replied, staring at the ceiling. "Why Linda and me?" I questioned. "Oh, 'cause they all wish they were dating Linda. She IS very good looking, Andy!" he replied as he rolled over to look at me. "Yes, I think so, I guess. I don't really notice girls, but I had noticed her. She kinda' stands out. She's really pretty nice. I think she'll make a good friend, as long as she doesn't try to take me away from you" I said smiling.
Jesse frowned. "Oh, she may try! But I'm not letting you go! You're mine!" he said and kissed me. I wrapped my arms around him and I could feel my cock start to harden. Then the phone rang. "Damn it!" I cried.
"Hello?" Jesse answered "Hey, Doug! We got back this morning. What? Where did you hear that from? Yeah, it's true! Yeah, he's right here, wanna talk to him?" With that Jesse handed me the phone. "Hello?" I spoke gently "Andy!" Doug's voice was so loud I nearly threw the phone away! "Hey, not so loud! What's up, Doug?".
"You son of a bitch!" he cried "You're dating Linda Hamilton, aren't you?". "Uh, well, yeah. We met at the beach and I've been seeing her for almost a week now" I answered
"I know!" Doug interrupted "Everybody in Fullerton knows and almost everyone in Yorba Linda knows as well. Everyone except Les and Eric, that is".
"Oh, well who cares about Les and Eric. They're ass holes anyway" I said.
"You sound pretty cocky about it" Doug continued "You do know that Eric's been after Linda the last two years now, don't you?".
"Oh are you fuckin' kidding ME!" I cried into the phone. Jesse looked at me with a worried face. "Oh, that's fucked! Where are Eric and Les?" I asked. "Up at your folks place in Skyforest. Good thing your folks don't have a phone up there! Eric would be down here jumpin' all over your ass about it, if he knew".
"So what am I going to do about Eric?" I asked. "If I were you, I'd just mention him to Linda. She hates him already. Her Father will take care of Eric" Doug replied.
"How so?" I asked.
"Well , he's a guy with Money and Power. He knows Larry and he'll probably tell Larry to keep his son away from you and Linda or else Eric will end up with broken bones in an alley somewhere" Doug theorized. "He's that kind of guy? Linda's Dad?" I asked, suddenly worried. "Oh, yeah! My Dads' known him since high school. Dad says the guy's ruthless. He's had the shit beat out of a few guys in the past for crossing him. He didn't get to be that rich by being a nice guy, Andy. Didn't you meet him?" Doug asked. "Yeah, twice. Linda says he likes me. He even told me he thought I was "an impressive young man" I replied. "OOhh! Well, I don't think you'll have to worry then. If he likes you and Linda likes you, Eric won't dare fuck around. He almost got his ass kicked already for calling her. She's got an unlisted phone number in her room and Eric got hold of it somehow. Started calling her up and her Dad threatened to beat his ass. He's kept his distance from her ever since, but he still thinks she's going to be his. So watch your back, Andy boy!" Doug warned.
"Thanks for the warning, Doug!" I said and with that he hung up. I looked at Jesse. "I'm FUCKED!!!!!!!! Eric wants Linda. You know what kind of an ass hole he's going to be when he finds out? Why can't it just be us, Jesse? Life would be perfect if it could just be us!" I sighed and looked down. I heard Jesse and he was crying. "Oh, Andy! I'm not happy!" he said. "Come here. SSShhhh! No need to cry! We're all right, I'm here for you" I said and cradled him in my arms. "I think I know how you felt the other night. I'm not sure if I can go through with dating Faye. She scares me!" he whimpered "I think she's going to rape me!"
I started to giggle. "She's going to What?" I asked "It's not funny!" Jesse said, but started giggling himself, in between his whimpers. "Faye the Manhandler rapes Jesse Dahlinger! I can see the headlines now!" I laughed. "It's NOT funny!" Jesse protested "You should see how she gropes my cock! It feels like she's going to pull it off!" he continued. "Maybe she has a collection of cocks at home" I said. With this Jesse laughed and started beating me with a pillow. "Ass hole! I wouldn't doubt it!" he cried "but you don't have to scare me!"
It was just about 4:00 when Mary got home. It would be until next weekend before she was back full time at the Hospital. She decided to make dinner. Afterward, we sat around, all having a drink. Jesse and I curled up on the floor under my blanket. I still was feeling only so-so. We'd just finished our drinks when the phone rang.
Mary took it in the kitchen. "I wonder if it's the girls" I said, knowing they were due to return from the beach that evening. Mary walked in, straight faced and said "Jesse. It's your Father". His face went blank. I'd been with Jesse since late October and I suddenly realized that I'd never heard Jess or Mary mention him. By Jesse's reaction, I knew there was a reason they hadn't.
He went to the phone and I looked at Mary. My expression must have given my thoughts away. "We don't talk about Jesse's Father much, Andy. Jesse doesn't like to discuss him. If he wants to talk about him, let Jess be the one to bring it up, OK Hon?"
"OK" I said. "I understand" I really didn't, but I knew Mary wouldn't want to explain until Jesse had told me his feelings on the subject. It was about an hour before Jesse finally returned, looking sort of melancholy.
Jesse turned to Mary and said "I talked to Karen, mostly. She says 'Hi'. Dad said they're coming out this summer for a week in July. They wanna' go to Disneyland. Again". "OK, Hon" Mary replied. "Better go get ready for bed now."
Jesse followed me into our room and closed the door. He gave me one of his 'How can I say this?' looks.
"What's wrong, Jesse?" I said, trying not to sound too eager. "My Dad and Sister are coming to visit" he said softly. "Sister?" I said. "I didn't know you had a sister". "Well, half sister" he said. "She was my Dad's from his first wife. His first wife died, then he met my Mom. They had me, then divorced when I was three". "We came out to California and I've only seen them three times since. That was the times he brought her out to go to Disneyland."
"It sounds like she must be Daddy's little girl" I said. "Oh, Andy! You hit the nail on the head! That's why Mom and Dad broke up. He chose her over Mom and me! She runs Dad's life. And she treats me like I'm beneath her, especially 'cause I'm gay"
"SHE knows?! What about your Dad?!" I asked, my expression showing I was totally shocked. "Yeah, Dad knows. He hates it and Karen's a bitch about it. Tonight, I told her about Faye. I said that I have a girlfriend now and she talked my ear off, saying 'See! I knew you weren't gay!'. Like she knows anything! God, I hate her. What a fuckin' BITCH!"
I was totally suprised by all this, but what came next was an even bigger suprise. Jesse looked down at the floor and said softly "Andy, you're going to have to stay at your parents house while they're here. I don't want him or her to know anything about you". A sad note sounded in his voice.
I looked at Jesse's face. I thought he might cry, so I tried to cheer him up. "Well, if she's that big of a bitch, I don't WANNA' meet her. Does she bite, too?" I said.
Jesse looked up and smiled a little. "I'm glad you understand, Andy. It's only 'cause she'll make it hell for the whole week if she knows. Then Dad will get pissed off".
"Hey, what week are they coming?" I asked. "First week of July. Why?" he replied. "Oh, that'll work out OK" I explained. "Every year my family's in Skyforest for the Fourth of July. I've spent every summer except one in Skyforest and............................." I stopped suddenly, eyes widening. "Oh no! I forgot! Every year we leave the day after school lets out! We spend the entire summer in Skyforest" I looked at Jesse. "What are we going to do?"
"Well, maybe they'll let you stay here. After all, you're here so I won't be alone while my Mom's at the Hospital. That's not going to change, so maybe they've already planned on it" Jesse answered, looking more upset now that he already had.
"Well, it's still almost two months away" I started explaining. "We'll get something worked out by then. I'm not worried. Mary talked them into letting me stay here during the school year, so maybe she'll help talk them into letting me stay here during the summer. Except when your Dad's here. Then I'll go to Skyforest. So, let's not get too worried about it now, OK Jess?". "OK, you're right" he said, seeming a bit relieved. .
Doug picked us up for school in the morning. "I talked to Phil and Kenny last night. They didn't believe me when I told 'em about you and Linda, Andy. They said they'd believe it when they see it. And Kenny was in shock about you, Jesse. I guess he asked Faye out last fall and she turned him down flat. So, they don't believe it!". Doug informed us.
When we got to school, all the guys were waiting for us in front of the lower Boys rest room. "There they are!" Matt called out as he pointed. The rest of the guys crowded around us, asking questions. Doug sounded like he was our manager or something, saying "Now don't all talk at once! One question at a time! Phil! You go first."
"Are you really dating Linda Hamilton?" he asked looking like he wouldn't believe anything I said anyway. As fortune would have it, I spotted Linda and Faye coming out of the English hallway right behind the guys. They spotted us, too.
"Why don't you ask Linda?" I answered, as Linda walked up to me and kissed me on the cheek. "Good morning, Andrew. Hi guys!" she said, smiling and giggling. "Good morning, Linda dear! Shall I walk you to class?" I replied. "That would be nice! Bye, guys!" she giggled as we turned. I offered Linda my arm and she waved as we walked away. "WWWWHHHOhhhhhhhhh!!!!!!" I heard the guys all exhale as we strode off. "Do you think they're jealous, Andrew?" she asked. "I'm not thinking about them, Linda. I thinking about you. How are you feeling? Better, I hope?"
"Yes, but I'm still a little sick I think" she said. "Well, don't worry" I said as I looked over my shoulder "Faye's STILL far more sick than any of us!" Faye had Jesse locked in a kiss, right in front of the astonished and open mouthed guys.
"She had that planned. She told me she was going to do it just to flip the guys out" Linda giggled. "Seems to be working!" I replied. "Poor Lord Dahlinger" I remarked.
In every class that morning, at least one person would ask me if it was true. "Yes, Linda and I are seeing each other" I would reply. The reactions ran from "Wow, how'd you score with her?" to "I don't believe it!" I would mearly shrug my shoulders and smile. At morning break, Jesse was waiting for me outside of the Band Hall. "Doug works fast" he began "Everyone is calling me 'Lord Dahlinger'!". "Well, your Lordship, how does it feel?" I kidded. "A bit strange, but I think I'll get used to it" he smiled. Then, it happened
"Hey, Faggots!" the voice shouted.
"Don't look Jesse!" I whispered. I heard Eric again "Look at me, you queers!" I ignored the voice and kept walking. A hand slapped my shoulder from behind. Without thinking, all the anger I had built up over the years from being taunted by Eric suddenly flew forth in a rage. I spun around and brought my knee up square into Eric's groin. The look on his face made it clear. I had shoved his balls all the way into his stomach. At least that's where he grabbed.
"EEERRRUUUCCCHHHHHH!!!!!!" he squeaked out, then fell to the ground in a pile. "DON'T EVER touch me again, you fuckin' ass hole, or I'll castrate you!" I snarled at the helpless quivering figure. "C'mon, Jess!" I said and we walked away. "YES! Oh, that was BITCHEN'!" Jesse cried, jumping up in the air. "I Love..............loved it!" he shouted.
"Yeah, well the ass hole deserved it. I only wish I'd kicked his face in, too." I muttered as we walked towards the lower Boys rest room. Jesse ran ahead "Guess what?! Andy just kicked Eric's ASS!" he shouted to the others. "WHAT!!!!" they all cried in unison. "Eric was waiting outside of the Band hall and he tried to grab Andy from behind. Andy turned around and kneed Eric in the balls so hard that he started puking!"
Cheers came from all the guys. "Yeah! Andy! Good for you!". "Kick that fuckers ASS!" and "Kill Eric, he's a Fuckin' DICK!" were among the things they said. They were all patting me on the shoulder, the back and the head when suddenly, above all the other voices, I heard "YOU!"
Everyone stopped and turned. There was Doug smiling "YOU are just TOO BITCHEN'!" he laughed "I saw the whole thing! I was coming out of wood shop and heard Eric yell at you. When you turned around and dropped him to the ground, I started laughing so hard I fell to the ground myself! Eric's still laying there, puking his guts out!" Doug turned to the others. "Long Live Prince Andrew!" he shouted, to which the other guys began cheering! I was starting to feel embarrassed when Linda and Faye suddenly appeared out of nowhere.
"What's going on, Andrew?" Linda asked. "Your Prince just kicked Eric Olsen's ass!" Doug answered. "You DID?" she asked, eyes wide open. "Well, I left him holding his crotch, lying on the ground and vomiting, actually" I answered a bit casual about the whole thing. "Andy!" she cried "I LOVE YOU!" She threw her arms around my neck and kissed me. The boys continued cheering and chanting "Long Live Prince Andrew!". I was completely overwhelmed by the reaction I was receiving. 'Must have been the timing' I thought to myself.
At lunch time we went to get something to eat. I didn't want to hang around campus anyway, just in case Eric had recovered and was plotting revenge.
"Andrew, don't worry about Eric" Linda said "I called my Dad and he's taken care of it."
"How so?" I asked. "He has his ways. I don't ask him how" Linda replied, the smile disappearing from her face
"Actually, my biggest worry is Les, my brother" I said, thinking out loud "He'll do what he can to cause problems at home."
"I thought you lived with Jesse" Linda said, sounding suprized "Only four days a week" I replied. "Then I stay at my Folks from Tuesday to Thursday".
"You mean you're not adopted?" Faye asked from the back seat. "NO! Where did you hear that from?" Jesse and I cried in unison before laughing.
"DOUG!" the girls replied in stereo. "Should have known it!" came our tandem reply. After explaining how it was I came to be living at Jesse's (the version Mary had scripted out for us), we had lunch and returned to school.
Thankfully, the rest of the afternoon was mostly uneventful. During English class, everyone was calling Jesse 'Lord Dahlinger'. Walking between classes, I got a few stares from some of the Seniors and quite a few smiles from the Underclassmen.
When the last bell rang, we walked the girls to Linda's car. "Call me tonight Andrew, OK?" Linda asked "After 6:00".
"6:00 it is!" I said politely. "Call me at 6:30, Jesse!" Faye commanded. "Hear that, Andy?" Jesse quipped.
"Limit my call to 30 minutes. Got it!" I smiled "I will call tonight and I'll see you tomorrow, Linda" I said and kissed her.
"YEAH, ANDY!!" voices called from behind. I spun around to see all the guys standing on the curb. "Bye, Andrew. Bye, guys!" Linda called. The Shelby roared to life and they sped away.
"Am I becoming a Spectator Sport?" I asked. This was answered with laughter.
Doug dropped us off and we walked up the driveway and entered the house. Lying on the kitchen counter was a note from Mary. It read 'Boys - Got called into work tonight. Be home tomorrow afternoon. The Pool man was here. He filled and serviced the pool and it's ready to use, so go swimming if you like! Love, Mom'.
"Yeah!" we cried and began stripping off our clothes. Out thru the backdoor we raced, across the lawn shouting and laughing. Into the water we sprang.
It felt great to be outdoors, swimming and sunning our naked bodies. Just the two of us, removed from the restraints we had to suffer on a daily basis. Free from our 'public' lives to rejoice in our 'private' life. The afternoon was spent swimming, sunning, having mixed drinks and playing the music we loved so much..................

There are another three parts to go until you get to read about how I met TJ, and how we became friends. There's many more to come, but since so many have e-mailed asking about my first meeting Terry, I thought I'd let you know.
