The
dinner was disappointing for Billy. First of all, they were late getting to
the restaurant. Then Taylor couldn’t come for some reason, which is why
they were late, and Mike was there with his dad. Worse, Mike’s dad sat
next to Billy on one side and his own dad was on the other side. Mike was
relegated to sitting across from him and that just made Billy even more
nervous.
About
the only thing that was good about the dinner was that he could spend his
time staring at Mike. He had no choice so at least this way he couldn’t
get into trouble. It was hard too, as Mike had worn a tight fitting light
blue button shirt that only highlighted his pecs. Billy found himself
constantly dreaming of having those nipples in his mouth and it had led to
some rather lame answers to questions he was asked by everyone. Even Mike
seemed to look at him strange a few times and this only made him more

to be the happy birthday boy for a few more hours. What part of
HIS BIRTHDAY did his dad not understand?
The
drive home wasn’t all that talkative and for some strange reason his
father seemed to not mind. Well this was certainly not the evening he had
hoped for but at least it was almost over. And he did at least have the
prospect of the party to help pass the time with. Who knows, maybe he could
sew up a few extra votes if he played it right. His thoughts now turning
towards other things, his bubble burst.
Funny,
the lights were all off as they approached the house, with Mike’s dad’s
truck bringing up the rear. He was sure they had left the security lights
on, and he damn well knew he had left his bedroom light on and yet
everything was dark. Maybe they
were experiencing another power outage.
Billy climbed out of the
car and started to head for the front door when he was startled by the
blaring of a loud truck horn. He jumped
