The high school parking lot was packed as family and friends arrived for the meal and festivities. The program for the night was the graduation dinner, followed by the Grand March and the graduation prom after. It had been done this way for decades, and this year was no exception. The family knew after the Grand March it was time for them to leave and let the young people have fun dancing until 1:00 am. Then, they would get changed out of their formal clothing and be bussed to where the party took place. Every year had a different location for the party depending on which of the graduates' parents volunteered to host it. This year it was out of town about 10 miles in a fairly remote area.
The parents would put up a snow fence around a large area which usually included a barn or even a quonset as part of it in case of rain during the party. The grads and their guests would have a big fire, cold beer or coolers, and freedom to drink within the fence. The parents had shifts set up where they would be around to help from outside of the fence, as well as to serve the drinks. The grads had selected the beer or coolers from a list of choices, and those would be available to them at the party. The parents kept control of the liquor, usually using a long cattle trough filled with ice to keep the drinks cool. The partiers could have the drinks no problem with the parents there to supervise for problems from a distance. They also would feed the young people and their guests with hamburgers cooked over a grill, along with other munchies. This is graduation in small cities, towns and villages on the prairies. In the morning, there would be a breakfast consisting of fried eggs, bacon, sausages, toast and hash browns with lots of coffee to wash it down. Or to make it easier coming back up for those who imbibed a little too much.
The graduating students received their diplomas as well as the various school awards they had won by mid-afternoon. The various local groups also presented their scholarships to the recipients as well. Between the awards ceremony and the graduation dinner, the grads were taken by the parents to various locations for their photos with their date. Arriving for dinner, some of the grads would show up in classic cars, limos, or something else which would set them apart from the others.
The dinner tables were all set up inside the huge gymnasium school gymnasium. The decorations were put up by the graduates and were quite elaborate with arches and bundles of balloons with streamers everywhere. Patrick's dinner guest tables were in the back of the gym, a place someone had thought was appropriate for a poor kid. The popular grads, or at least the more connected ones, had the best tables in the front. The grads had been arriving in various cars, each trying to outdo the other. But, they were stunned when the Astar 350 B2 flew over the parking lot, did a couple of loops around the school property, settling down on the football field next to the buildings.
Many of the grads watching the helicopter were shocked beyond belief when Patrick got out, helped his mother and her boyfriend out of the back, and then his date in full dress-red police uniform. Mel had volunteered to fly the helicopter, and when the group was clear, she took off to head back to the base. The grads looked at Patrick first for his arrival and secondly for his having a male escort in dress police uniform. As Patrick arrived, 4 brand new black Suburbans with tinted glass sporting a small Bear Security Service sticker on the back side-window pulled up to the front of the high school. Some of the heads must have almost exploded when the guests getting out of the vehicles waited for Patrick's group to join them. His little group was joined by the passengers consisting of 6 people in suits, 2 in dress-red police uniform, 5 in dress paramedic uniforms, and 3 in traditional indigenous dress.
As they entered the gym to be seated, the noise level dropped suddenly as the group found their seats. The diversity of the uniforms, the Chief's rank, and the traditional indigenous clothing made quite the impression on the guests. Some of the more popular people were upset Patrick had not only arrived in a helicopter but also because of the type of friends he had brought with him. A few of them were upset they weren't getting the attention as Patrick was stealing it. High school politics at its finest. After the grad, there were only 2 weeks of school left which meant Patrick would be entering the adult world very soon. He had faith the path he was expected take would be revealed to him.
The meal was absolutely wonderful, and served by a small well-coordinated group of people. The grand march with the grads was a colourful spectacle with all the beautiful dresses and flashy suits being worn. There had been only one full dress police uniform worn in the grand march in the history of the school. Some of the popular students again felt as if they had been upstaged by Patrick. Some of the girls graduating were even thinking how handsome both Patrick and his date was; lamenting that both of them were gay. There were only a few comments made about the gay couple, and those were silenced fairly quickly by some of the grad students themselves. The dance was very nice, but Patrick only stayed for a short time. He and his entire group of guests left in the black Suburbans. Patrick chose not to go to the after grad party, instead, he chose to have a quiet celebration with his friends.
What he didn't know was that Adam had made arrangements for them to travel out to Jared's cabin for the rest of the weekend with the first night on their own. When they finally entered the cabin together, the kitchen table had a box containing a cheesecake in it along with a bottle of champagne. A card signed by both grandfathers was leaning against a vase with two beautiful dark purple roses. The note inside was simple. "You two are like these roses. A rare flower which is beautiful on its own, but even better as a pair. A pair which was meant to be together. You both have our blessings, our children."
Patrick stood and looked at the note as well as the roses. While staring at them, he slid his arm around Adam's waist and pulled him close to him.
Adam's eyes were watering, forming teardrops which rolled down his cheeks. Patrick turned, looked at Adam and realized he wasn't the only one who was emotional about the gesture from the two patriarchs.
Adam looked deeply into his boyfriend's eyes, raising his hand he gently stroked the side of Patrick's face. "I love you, Patrick. This may sound corny, but I don't know if I could exist without you. I really need you."
Patrick reached up and took Adam's hand into his. Bringing it up to his mouth, he gently kissed it. "It doesn't sound corny as I have the same feelings about you. I never knew love could feel like this until I met you."
Adam pulled Patrick into himself tightly, grasping his boyfriend just as securely. "I've come so far with your strength. I know I don't tell you that I love as much as I could..."
The young man moved his head back to look at Adam. Raising his hand, he used a finger to block Adam's lips as he spoke. "Ssshhhh. We know we love each other and we do say it. You chose me, a poor fatherless kid with no money."
Adam now used his finger to silence Patrick the same way that had been used on him. "You have the biggest heart of anyone I've ever met." The two young men gently touched their lips together, and then began a deep kiss. "You also have the biggest dick..." Patrick ground his pelvis into Adam as he kissed him again.
After they separated, Adam led Patrick out to the hot tub on the deck. He reached over to pull the lid off, placing it to lean against the cabin. As they embraced in the moonlight, Patrick towered over Adam by four inches. When they separated, the two young men rapidly tore their own clothes off, throwing them all over the deck. Two splashes were heard, immediately followed by some giggling from Patrick as Adam tickled his ribs. Water splashed all over the deck as the two naked young men wrestled in the hot tub, each trying to get the other to admit defeat through laughter. After a couple of moments, the two young men stood in the centre of the tub, embracing. Their kisses were urgent, tongues probing the other's mouths. The emotion of love far exceeded lust, and it would carry the two of them through the night as they both made love together until the sun started to rise.
