Mike
dropped his big sports bag and ran forward to engulf Billy in a giant bear
hug. Billy couldn’t believe it. This was his best friend back into his
life and suddenly his heart felt whole for a brief time. His arms were
wrapped around the unbelievably strong body of Mike and he felt a strange
sensation run through him.
“Mike...
when did you get back into town?”
“Two
weeks ago... damn I am glad to be home”
“You
mean you’ve moved back, for good?”
“Yep...
Dad had enough of LA and so did I.”
“But...
your mom... didn’t she...”
“Uh...
well she kind had enough too.... but look at you... all that long hair and
stuff.....”
“Yeah
but you are bald.... hey, there isn’t anything wrong is there?”
“hehe
No,
it’s just easier for me to wear my helmet.”
“Your
helmet?
Shit... you are number 85.... I should have known the way you ran
down the field... it had to be you.... well what a catch”
“hehe..
you liked it did you?
.....So did I.....”
Old
home week ended as Billy’s dad hurried them along. Traffic was thinning
out now and it was late. They were busy talking over old times when
Billy’s dad announced that they had arrived. Billy looked up to see they
were at the Carter’s old place and he smiled.
“Hey
we are almost neighbors.... this is great.”
“Yeah
it is
..... uh... maybe we can get together tomorrow?”
“That would be super Mike... why don’t you come over and we
can go swimming.”
