Subject: Mike Our Star Player II-2

Hi Folks its Mark again as I told our buddy Mike this chapter is also from
my point of view.

The friend that I was watching his guide dog for finally agreed to have the
surgery once the Marty called to speak with both of us, but especially me
since I do not have my drivers license yet.  Marty, explained to me that
they both where headed home from the beach, so that he could take Mike to
the hospital instead of him using a cab.  I really do not think that my
lover (or so he told me he was ) Mike was all that happy that his summer
vacation was being cut short, just because somebody needed his dad's help.
Well that is not really true as our friend Mike had called his cousin in
Southern Maryland to ask her if she could possibly drive up to take him to
the hospital, but Marty told Mike that as much as the boys loved me and he
knew that Mike was legally blind unable to drive himself.  Marty said,"
Mark you have Mike ready on Sunday night when both Mike and I arrive to
assist you in getting him to the hospital, and than we will stay there to
make sure his place is ready for him upon his release".  True to his word
Marty pulled up in front of Mike's place to unload their stuff into the
guest room, but Mike acted like spoiled kid pouting in the car because his
vacation had been cut short.  Mike, was not upset that I had not been there
or happy to see me again, and it broke my heart.  I did something that I
have not done in years.  Mike was in his room trying to get Bagger settled
down with all the people coming and going, and I ran to him to cry like a
baby because of the cold shoulder that Mike was giving me.

Marty saw what had happened and was getting more and more pissed off at his
son, because all his son was thinking about was himself and not how others
where feeling at the time.  I could tell that Marty was really angry at
Mike, because his friend Mike was facing back surgery while putting on a
strong face for Mark.  I was scared that our friend may have allot of
trouble walking after his surgery, and I told Marty not to upset him that I
thought of Mike as a second dad.  Once again I started to let the tears
flow.  Marty told me that he thought that was a really nice way to think of
Mike, and I asked him point blank," Why is Mike being such an asshole
lately especially towards me?"  Marty said," Mark would you please explain
what you mean".  I than told Marty how Mike had been hanging with some of
those bigoted jocks at school after the Spring Fling Dance, and when ever I
walked by they would say," If it isn't that faggot who fucked the coach to
get on the football team". I had told him also that Mike had not done a
damn thing to stop it and he even started it sometime especially in the
lunch area.

After fixing us all a light dinner since our friend Mike could not have
anything to eat or drink after Midnight, Marty thanked me for fixing the
dinner.  With Mike sitting there like a bump on a log I informed Marty that
as long as there where bigots and two faced friends who refer to themselves
as boyfriends one minute, and than ignore you or bash you during the
remainder of the school year.  I stood up and said," Marty you are a great
football coach but ever since Mike started to hang out with those bigots,
and since he does not understand how important it is to me that I be able
to earn money for me to have to spend when I like something. Marty, I
regret to inform you that I will not play football for New Town especially
with a two-faced player like Mike on the team".  Well that started the
fireworks for the rest of the night, and even after we heard that Mike's
back surgery was successful.  Marty asked me to reconsider what I had
decided to do when it comes to football, and he than turned to his son Mike
saying," If your idea of a perfect life is to be living off of me than
forget it mister because I have also notice how badly that you have been
acting towards Mark, so I called you mom to inform her that unless you
straighten up that she was going to be have her gay faggot son living with
her and Claude Darr".  Also Mike your credit cards have been cancelled from
the time that you started to pout like a spoiled child when I told you that
we had to return home to help both Mark and our friend Mike out when it
came to taking him to the hospital.

Mike stood up looked at me and yelled, " Its All Your Fucking Fault Mark".
I responded to him no its not my fault that you thought just because your
dad used to play Pro Football that everything was going to be handed to you
on a silver platter, well Mike get a fucking life because it just does not
happen that way.  Than I noticed that he was not wearing the ring that I
had saved up to buy for him so I asked," Mike why are you not wearing the
ring that I saved up to buy for you?"  He could not answer, and I noticed
that Marty saw that he was wearing the band that Mike liked better.  The
white and yellow gold twist band that he had charged two rings to a credit
card of Marty's prior to the Spring Fling.  Marty said," Mike since you
like something that I had to pay for on my credit card, and you are not
wearing the ring that Mark gave you after he saved up to buy it himself.
Take the ring off and hand it over as it belongs to me as well as that
watch you are wearing and do it NOW !!!!! "

I was so upset that I left them to fight it out amongst themselves.  Our
buddy Mike and Bagger entered my room to make sure that I was alright.  I
lied to him by telling him that I was just fine.  How could I have lied to
such a sweet man?  Marty knocked on the door and asked if he could enter,
and I said sure no problem.  Marty walked over to me handing me this
seasons playbook asking me to please reconsider what I had said about not
playing football this season.  Ok I will look at it but can not make any
promises about playing or not playing.

Later on that night Bagger did something that was not like him at all, he
jumped up on my bed licking me as if he wanted me to follow him or I
thought maybe he needs to go outside to go to the bathroom.  Well it was
not the later.  Bagger nudged me towards Mike's bedroom where I found my
friend crying as he held a pillow close to him.  I asked Mike why he was
crying, and his response made me so sick that I had to get Marty back over
here as soon as possible.  I called Marty's house and when he answered the
phone asking what was wrong that I would call him at 2 AM since he had to
drive Mike to the hospital in 4 hours.  Marty, please come over here as
soon as possible because Mike does not want the surgery because all it has
done since he asked me to help him is to cause trouble between Mike and
myself, and he has been in his room crying for the past 5 hours over how he
has messed up such a beautiful friendship, also he is afraid that you are
just doing this before dropping him like his folks did when he was a child.

That last statement made Marty ask me what was meant by it.  I told Marty
that Mike was born legally blind and he does not know who his parents are
as they left him at a convent, and I would tell him the whole story as Mike
had told both Mike and myself last year just before he was appointed as the
new principal at New Town.  Marty arrived with Mike in tow some 10
mins. later.  He told myself and Mike he wanted to hear the whole story.

 So we took mugs of coffee onto the patio.

Mike did something that he had not done since the dance.  He leaned over
and kissed me.  Than he asked for me to accept his apology for acting like
such an asshole.  Before I could answer him. Mike than turned to Marty and
asked for his forgiveness.  Marty asked Mike," What brought this on all of
a sudden?"  Mike replied," Dad once you hear the story than I think you
will understand."  With that both Mike and I started to give Marty the
story that our friend Mike had told us in a nutshell and leaving out allot
of the stuff that made the two of us sick when Mike told the two of us it
right after our first lovers fight that he over heard.  Mike said," Dad
once you hear this please do not tell Mr. Mike that we told you his story
as we respect him for all that he has been through."  Marty just nodded his
head as he was drinking his coffee at the time Mike made that request.  I
than told Marty that Mr. Mike (even though he hated to be called that) had
told us that he was born with a visual impairment, and never knew who his
mom and dad where or if they are still alive, and that he was in so many
foster homes along with group homes where he was abuses sexually or in one
case sold to a neighbor while in foster care because the man's wife was
going to away for a month, and this guy wanted someway to have a sexual
relief. Mike than told his dad the real reason that Mr. Mike need to have
back surgery was because the last group home he was in just prior to
turning 18 years old some dyke took a baseball bat and hit him across the
lower part of his back.

After we gave Marty the summary of Mr. Mike's story, I turned to Mike and
asked him if he was serious about his apologizing to me.  He told me that
he was so sorry for being such an asshole and idiot.  I took Mike ( by this
time we both had nice size chest and I know its close to 44 if not larger)
looking him in his eyes as the eyes are the windows to the soul, and I
accepted by giving him one of the hottest French kisses that either of us
have had.

I than asked Marty what we should do about Mr. Mike?  For some unknown
reason I just had a feeling that he needed to know that Mike and I are back
together, and that Marty and Mike are no longer fighting.  I hope that I am
right, and was surprised when Marty told me," I think that you two need to
let Mike know that you are back together, and Mike he can be told that we
are no longer fighting."  Marty than said," Boys you realize that the
reason Mike told you about his background is because he hopes we will
become his family, and I do not believe that he has any relatives in
Southern Maryland."  I told both Mike and Marty," I think it be kind of
nice to have 2 dads that worry enough about us", and Marty please do not
take that the wrong way as I love you dearly its just that I think maybe we
need to expand our family to 2 dads, 1 guide dog, and 2 teenage lovers and
partners.  How about you?

Before anyone could answer Mike and Bagger came out of his room to step
outside, and you could see his eyes where red from crying all night.  As
soon as they came back inside Marty told Mr. Mike to go get some sweats on
and that they would head to the hospital, and the boys would clean the
house as well as take care of Bagger.


[I did have back surgery in July 2004 and have been going through water
therapy that is why the story was over a month in having the sophomore year
started]
