Author's note: throughout this story I have been saying that the Olympics will be held in Madrid, when we all know that they were actually held in Barcelona. Be assured that all my characters went to the right city and I was the only one in Madrid.
After making a perfect landing onto the mat there was a stunned silence until everyone began cheering and applauding their hero. Several came up to shake his hand and the past Olympic bronze medal winner who was the countries previous best said, "If that doesn't score perfect tens then something's wrong with the system. There is no one else in the world that can beat that."
After a break Davey then showed what he could do on the parallel bars and again the new movements astounded everybody. Included in the congratulations was Jonathon who invented most of these moves which everyone agreed would change the world of gymnastics forever.
A couple of days later and it was time to make the trip across the border back into Spain and Barcelona. The US Olympic bosses decided to show the team some of the great scenery on the way to relax them and give them a bit of breathing space.
Finally they arrived at the Olympic Village and were all booked in, given their accommodations and taken to the village to show them where everything was. Davey and Johnny were delighted to find that the head coach had them both in the same room. As he explained to Jonathon, having the boys sleep together would be good for their morale.
One of the first friendly faces they saw was Paul the son of the ex-ambassador for Russia. As they embraced Davey asked Paul about his Russian boyfriend Slavek, "how is it with Slavek your boyfriend going?"
"Couldn't be better, in fact I'd like you to meet him tonight but we have to be very discreet because the Russians are watching us very closely. We have something to tell you but it must be strictly between the four of us, no one else must ever know what is going on."
"That sounds very mysterious. "Davey said with a nervous grin.
"I can't say any more until we meet tonight" Paul added. Just then his father and mother arrived to wish Davey all the best.
The guys spent the rest of the day relaxing and exploring the village with Jonathon giving Davey a rest day with instructions for an early start in the morning. It wasn't until dinner time that they met up once again with Paul and Slavek. After getting their meal all four sat down together at a table separated from other diners but not too far away to raise any suspicions.
Paul whispered that it would be best if they appeared to be laughing joking and making general conversation. In between the laughing and joking Paul explained that Slavek wanted to defect to the USA so he can be with his lover and also enjoy a safer lifestyle without the pressure he is under right now.
"How do you plan to do this?" Davey asked.
"We have a plan but need your help to carry it out." Paul explained, before going into details of what was going to happen during the closing ceremony. Later both Davey and Johnny agreed it was a daring plan that just could work. Once they had worked out some finer details the boys headed back to their room in the village to enjoy a good night's sleep in each other's arms.
They were up early the next day for a run around the training track before a few other exercises. Jonathon and their head coach had decided that Davey wouldn't do any of the complicated parts of his routine until the actual competition due to the element of surprise and spying eyes.
At lunchtime the guys met up with Paul, Slavek and several others proving that it was the coaches and heads of state who looked upon the competition as a battle rather than a friendly gathering of likeminded athletes. Mind you several gymnasts from other countries tried to find out more about Davey's routine but their questions were met with a sly grin, a wink and a wait and see remark.
The next couple of days were more or less routine until finally it was opening ceremony day. Davey was competing the next day but decided to march with his fellow athletes anyway. His family and friends in the meantime had arrived in Barcelona but of course weren't allowed to visit their sons. Security in the athlete's village and the venues was very tight.
The opening ceremony was a spectacular event but went on a bit long and Jonathon was panicking that Davey would be too tired the next day when he took part in the qualifying round of gymnastics. Davey's routine for this event was fairly basic with the more difficult stuff being reserved for the finals.
Both Davey and Slavek made it through to the finals with America leading the overall medal tally, Russia was second and the host nation Spain third.
Davey and Johnny were very disciplined and well behaved during the competition. They slept in each other's arms getting them very horny. However, they abstained on going any further which kept them both mentally and physically on edge.
The day of the final of the gymnastics dawned. It was hot, sticky and humid. While the stadium was well ventilated it had no air conditioning, only giant ceiling fans which only served to swirl around the hot fetid air. With a capacity crowd the temperature was decidedly unpleasant which worried Jonathon regarding Davey being capable to perform at his peak.
It soon emerged that the two top contenders were going to be Davey and Slavek who by now had become very good friends with the guys having met most evenings at meal time's fine tuning the Russians escape plan.
With the finals now underway it was obvious the competition was going to be fierce. Davey was drawn to go last in every section with the rings coming up first. With this being his strongest event and rumors circulating regarding his new routine the excitement was rising with Slavek currently in front.
After undergoing his normal meditation before starting he then slowly walked onto the podium, Jonathon beside him ready to lift him up. The whole arena was a deathly quiet. Davey raised his arm to indicate that he was ready and his coach hoisted him up to begin a routine which was to revolutionize this event for ever.
The crowd at first was silent before they began to realize what they were witnessing. Before he had finished his routine every one, rivals and supporters alike were on their feet cheering this great young athlete on. As one commentator remarked, `None of the judges would have been game to give him less than ten after that reaction'.
That is just what he received, seven ten's making Olympic history. As the news flashed around the whole of the games everything stopped as the cheers echoed not just around Barcelona but the world. In Washington the debate in congress stopped as the news spread with Democrats and Republicans alike applauding and cheering. Nothing like this had ever happened before because a young American teenager had never achieved what Davey had just achieved.
Finally the stadium returned to normal and other events recommenced while the nation's hero made his way back to the training area to ready himself for his next event. One of the first to come up and give him a hug was Slavek who whispered, "I am so looking forward to working with you in the USA. I hope we become close friends."
"I'm sure we will Slavek and I pray everything goes well with our plan." They both grinned and remained talking until his Russian coach angrily called him away. Poor Jonathon was a basket case and was still crying tears of joy as he embraced Davey. Jonathon I can't thank you enough for your help in creating and teaching me that routine. All this is yours not mine Davey explained, which started another round of tears from his coach.
Davey's other events once again demonstrated what a great athlete he was with prefect ten's except for the horse which produced a couple of nine's but without doubt he was the winner. The next big surprise was the medal ceremony which unbeknown to Davey the President of the United States George W Bush had asked the Olympic committee if he could present the medals.
As he placed the gold medals around Davey's neck President Bush said. "I have never been more privileged than to hang this medal around your neck Davey. Your country is so proud of you. You are a great American, thank you on behalf of all of us."
When he placed the silver around Slavek's neck he couldn't understand why he and Davey burst out laughing when he said, "Congratulations, I just wish you were American and not Russian." Little did he know that if all goes according to plan during the closing ceremony, his words could come true.
Later that day the boys and Jonathon as well were given permission to leave the village to attend a family party in one of Barcelona's finest hotels, the Majestic. Davey and Johnny's family, along with other supporters from El Paso had more or less taken over the hotel.
When they arrived the boys were so thrilled to meet up with their families including Johnny Senior who worked for the Texas Governor and Johnny had no idea he would be there. The biggest surprise of all was the Governor himself who was there to congratulate the pair of them and Jonathon as well.
Davey's older adopted brother took him to one side once the initial welcomes and tears from both mom's had subsided to explain that overnight Davey had become a multi-millionaire with endorsement offers rolling in, "Pepsi is offering twelve million dollars for a three year endorsement but I think Coke will come back with an even bigger deal." He explained, "Nike is willing to give you twenty three million for a five year deal and an underwear company which has a range of briefs a bit on the daring side have more or less given us a blank check if you and Johnny will model for them. I will leave the decision up to you little Bro." He then went on to explain the hundreds of other offers coming in by the hour.
Before rejoining the party Davey told his brother that he wanted to donate ten million dollars to set up an AIDS foundation to carry out more research into this terrible disease. His brother agreed stating his own company Angel Corp, would match that figure.
The party was still in full swing when Davey started to get very weary, but before leaving he took his older brother into his confidence regarding Slavek's escape to the USA. He offered to help and together they came up with a solution for the last problem that was bothering Paul and Slavek.
Tight security surrounded the boys as the returned to the Olympic village and they were soon in the privacy of their own room. After showering they laid in bed cuddling, both far too tired to make love but promising each other that when they were rested ...
That moment came just as the sun was rising over the village and the night chill was being replaced by a hot sticky day. They made sweet gentle love for an hour or so. After sharing a shower they headed for breakfast. It was during the meal that they were joined by Paul and they told him of the final part of the plan, "That's great, I can't thank you guys enough for what you are doing. The Russians suspect something is up so we will have to be very careful and you will be the one in the most danger Davey.'
"Don't worry my own security will make sure nothing happens to me."
Just then Davey and Johnny were whisked away for a round of TV, radio and other media interviews. Both guys were very tired by the time they went to dinner, followed by bed and another love session. Tomorrow was the closing ceremony and they had nothing planned except to laze around the village pool before meeting up with Paul for a final briefing on their daring plan.
They met at lunchtime and Paul said that Slavek was delighted with the news about the offer from Davey's brother. They had to be very careful because the Russians were watching both of them all the time, suspecting that something was being planned but not sure what. Slavek wasn't allowed any freedom at all, being told that the team had to remain together in preparation for the closing ceremony.
Davey and Johnny had to be careful as well and at the team USA briefing later that afternoon rules were laid down regarding the team's behavior during the closing.
Finally it was time for them to assemble, followed by the long wait
before they marched out into the packed arena. At last they were marching and waving to the crowd, all of them carrying little American flags. Everyone remained in order until after the official closing duties were done and then as the entertainment began everyone began to mingle and soon Slavek was next to the guys. As everyone crowded around them they managed to change clothes so that Davey finished up with a Russian uniform on and Slavek in Davey's outfit.
Luckily they were of similar size and while Slavek was slightly taller and in the crowd the shortness of the pants wasn't noticed. Both of them then parted. They wandered around and greeted other teams which made it difficult for the Russians to keep tabs on their man and in any case they were watching the wrong person.
It wasn't till the show finished and everyone was leaving did they realize that they had been keeping watch on the wrong guy. The Russians tried to seize Davey for questioning but his own security prevented this and he finished up back with his team on the way to the village.
Several hours before that Slavek was hustled out of the stadium by Paul and placed in a US government car manned by Paul's driver and was driven to the airport were the Angel Corp executive jet was waiting to fly the pair of them to Washington. Once in the air Paul contacted his father explaining what was happening and so he could arrange for Government officials to meet them at the airport.
Prior to this Paul's parents had no idea of their son and his lover's plans but pledged full support once they were told. As an added bonus on the long flight Paul and Slavek were able to join the mile high club.
The Russians tried to put the blame on Davey and the American team who kept denying any knowledge of the plot claiming that Slavek asked to change uniforms as a gesture of good will between two rival athletes.
With accusations flying back and forth for several days between the two Governments it soon became obvious that Slavek was gone and he was allowed to remain in America as a political refugee.
Meanwhile Davey, Johnny and the rest of the gymnastic team returned home to a hero's welcome for having blitzed the rest of the world in gymnastics.
First they were flown to Washington and a presidential banquet in their honor before the whole team took part in a ticker tape parade in New York and all this was interspersed with TV and radio interviews. Johnny remarked at one stage to Davey, "This is more exhausting than training and competing."
Several television interviewers requested just Davey appear but he refused to go on unless Johnny was by his side. Both of them by now were getting homesick and longed for peace and quiet and relaxing with their families, but they still had a lot more celebrity stuff to do as Davey called it before this would happen.
Finally the day arrived when they guys were on their way back to El Paso and home. Once again just like their return from the World championships the whole city turned out to give them a hero's welcome. It was quite late by the time everything was over and they were back in their own little humble room in the hostel.
Exhausted they both lay side by side on the bed, a position they remained in until Davey turned to his lover taking him into his arms whispering, "I love you so much." Their lips met and what followed was an evening of tender passionate romance which only two young people so deeply in love could achieve.
TO BE CONTINUED.
Editors Corner:
Well it was great to see Davey win a few gold metals. It is always great to have an American win. Know the Russians must have been pissed.
We know the Russians suspected that something was up with Slavek. Though I was glad the boys were able to figure a way of outsmarting the Ruskies. Now I know the Russians know that Davey and his buddies were in on it even though they cannot prove it. I believe that even though they do not have proof that they are capable of making some very serious things happen, possibly to Davey himself. Just my take. Remember, Trevor tells me nothing. I only get to read what you get to read.
Well looking forward to the next chapter. Glad Trevor is able to write again. Welcome back Trevor.
Remember to let Trevor know your thoughts on his story (good or bad).
Until next time, have a great day
