Lloyd asked Wheeler, "Are you OK with what happened here tonight?"
"More than OK. It was really, really hot!... But I still only want to do those kinds of things with you only... only with you."
Lloyd smiled... and nodded his head.
Chapter Fourteen
Lloyd had been to practice all week and still coach D seemed way out of it. Lloyd thinks to himself, today I am going to talk to him there has to be something I can do to help him.
After practice Lloyd hung back taking his time showering and dressing making sure he was the last one to get done, he walked over to coaches office and without knocking walked in the open door noticing coach sitting behind his desk just staring off in to space. Lloyd sat down in the chair in front of the desk and cleared his throat.
Coach slightly jumped and turned to face Lloyd. Oh hey Lloyd coach said, Lloyd only looked at coach and smiled, what can I do for you son? Lloyd only smiled again. Coach looked closer at him and was starting to get a little worried that Lloyd had some big problem he was trying to work out. Finally Lloyd said look coach I don't know what is going on but I want you to know that not only have I noticed but also the whole damn team is worried about you. Coach had no idea that what he was doing was affecting the whole team.
Sorry son I have just been thinking about things. Lloyd looked over to coach and said yea I know and his name is Elijah. Coach was shocked that Lloyd would even know about him. Coach Wheeler is Elijah's cousin, I knew who he was coming to see. Oh well I guess you know he never showed up he wont answer my emails and has not been online at all unless he has me blocked.
Coach Wheeler and I talked a bit about him he left without saying bye to anyone just left a note saying he was going back to school. I am sure it had nothing to do with you but I think you need to snap out of it, without you guiding the team we are starting to suffer. I know I should just let it go but sometimes it is not that easy to do. I thought we were having fun and we could've still had some fun but I guess that was up to him to decide coach said, Lloyd looked at coach all he could think of saying was the truth well coach I look at it this way, That's his loss not yours.
Lloyd knew he was going to be talking to wheeler about this and see if they could figure out what had gone wrong.
Coach was amazed to think that Lloyd a mere boy no a man-child was so smart.
Lloyd I promise from here on out things are going to be different. And if you see me slipping you have my permission to snap me back to what I should be doing. And for the first time in a long time Lloyd saw a smile on coach's face.
The next morning Ritchie was sitting on the far left table outside the lunchroom just waiting for his friends when someone put their hands over his eyes and whispered guess who. Mmmm said Ritchie my mommy? The hands pulled back to the sides of his head and then began to push slightly in on his ears. Glenn was walking around the corner of the building and when he saw what was going on he walked slowly over to where Ritchie was seated and kicked Wheeler dead square in the ass and said in a low tone get off my boyfriend asshole. I am not on his asshole said Wheeler. All three of them started laughing at the whole thing. Lloyd soon joined them and relayed what he had been doing and said he thinks coach was going to be all right now. Wheeler looked concerned and just then the first bell rang and the boys split up to go to their next class but not without glances at each other. Ritchie said to them, hey can we all get together this afternoon I want to talk about something, sure they all said at the same time then all laughed and departed to there next class.
As Ritchie was sitting down he was deep in thought about what had happened at Wheeler's place. He did not have a problem with what went on no that was not what he was thinking he was really interested in seeing if the other guys wanted to do it again. He had talked with Glenn and found that Glenn thought it was one hot time. But he was still worried that if it went further than it did would it affect the way the boys were towards each other. He knew in his heart that Glenn was the only one for him but he wanted to know for sure that Glenn felt the same way.
Elijah woke and was just laying in the bed thinking about what had happened he had planned on going over to coaches house and having fun but on the way he stopped in a drug store and was picking up some condoms and lube. There was this other young guy that came up to where he was standing and winked at him. Elijah only smiled the other guy said big night? Elijah only smiled as he paid for the items and walked out of the store the young guy was standing on the corner of the building he watched as Elijah slowed and came to a stop then he waved at Elijah. Elijah thought to himself maybe this guy wants to have some fun he could talk to him and see if there was a possibility that he would join D and him. Elijah walked over to the corner of the building the guy just whispered follow me around back man. Elijah did not feel like there was a problem so he did, once they were around the back of the store the guy stopped and asked Elijah if he was gay Elijah only nodded, he never saw the other two guys come out from behind the dumpster they grabbed Elijah and had held him while the young man that was in the store started to punch and kick Elijah. The other guy who had been standing there started to punch and the third guy who had been holding Elijah let him drop to the ground the first guy said that should teach you to come around here faggot. The three guys kicked Elijah a few more times and then just walked off. It took Elijah a long time to make it back to his car and then to drive back to his uncles house he was real late getting back into the house and when he awoke in the morning he was upset and depressed and didn't want to be seen by anyone so he decided just to leave and not let anyone know what had happened to him.
Wheeler and Lloyd were sitting on the couch just sort of cuddling when Lloyd told wheeler about the coach and they called and talked to Elijah and Lloyd and wheeler convinced him to call coach and at least explain it all to him they had no idea the shame that Elijah had felt and how he thought that coach would not even understand.
Elijah called coach as soon as he was off the phone with wheeler and Lloyd and spent the next two hours talking and explaining himself and his actions to coach. Coach then knew it was not something he had done or not done. It was decided by Elijah that he just waned time to get over the whole thing and also explained to coach that although he had a great time he was still not ready for a total commitment to just one person coach understood and was already under the same impression as well that this was just one of those things and that it was never going to lead to what they both wanted and was fine with that.
As wheeler and Lloyd were once again relaxing on the couch there was a knock on the door. The boys pulled apart and Wheeler got up and walked over to the door. He opened the door to find Ritchie and Glenn standing on the landing deep in a French kiss and after standing there for a few seconds just turned and walked away back to the couch. Lloyd looked at Wheeler and glanced back at the door he had left open. Wheeler only smiled and said lovebirds. Lloyd only smiled and pulled Wheeler into a kiss. Ritchie and Glenn came into the room and shut and locked the door. Walking over to the couch area the boys just stared and the two young teens on the couch. Glenn noticed that Wheeler's cock was hard and putting quiet a tent in his jeans. This did not go unnoticed by Ritchie that Glenn was looking at the bulge. Ritchie stepped away from Glenn and said loudly I can't believe your doing that. Glenn looked up at Ritchie and said I don't know what you're talking about. Both the guys on the couch stopped kissing and were now watching what was going on between there friends. Ritchie said I know what you were doing man I have eyes. Again Glenn did not know what Ritchie was talking about. He said hey I have no idea what you're talking about what I was doing. Ritchie turned to face his lover straight on and said you were staring at Wheelers crotch I saw you. Glenn then understood what Ritchie was upset about. Yes I was staring but not like you think I was. How else is there to stare at someone's crotch then? Yelled Ritchie. Glenn only walked over to the computer chair and pulled it over towards the couch he looked at Ritchie as he sat down and said look Hun sit down on the couch I think we all need to talk here. Ritchie stood there for a few seconds but then moved over to the couch. Glenn looked down at the floor for a few minutes and then looked up and said look I have to say this and I want everyone to hold off saying anything until I am finished talking OK the other three boys only nodded. Glenn looked down at the floor again and thought for a few seconds before he looked up and started to speak.
. I really don't like cliff hangers but I like where this one is at right now I have to do some thinking, wonder what is going on in Glenn's mind?
