Author's Note: To celebrate the four year anniversary of the On the Banks series (as well as my anniversary as a net writer), I have revived the original characters, and written this revised/Director's Cut version of the original chapter. There were so many errors in that original chapter, be it grammar, spelling or otherwise, and so much I would've changed if given the chance to write it all over again. I took this anniversary as that chance, and I rewrote the fic to how I would write it NOW, and how I should've written it THEN.

I'm calling it Director's Cut, because that sounds cooler than "rewrite" or "revised" edition, even though this is essentially a brand new story written from the original idea. I like this version so much better, I cannot possibly even explain how much. I took out all the pointless parts that didn't need to be there, I fixed all the horrendous and glaring grammar and spelling mistakes, I gave it more plot, I just made it a drastically better fic. Those of you who have read the original will notice the difference from the first sentence. Those that haven't, I really hope you enjoy this.

Young love is a funny thing. When you're young, and you fall in love, it's the greatest thing on Earth. You're so sure that it's going to last forever, that you never hesitate to give all of yourself to that person. It's so easy to get lost in them without even realizing it's happening. But why would you notice? I mean, you're head over heels, and in that position you don't see much but ankle. That's why it's so easy for heartbreak to blindside you, to dropkick you out of your happy little world and leave your head spinning without so much as a pill to help the dizziness. That's why young love really isn't the greatest thing on Earth; that's why young heartbreak hurts the most, because you never see it coming.

Well, I didn't anyway. Maybe others do, I don't know. All I know is that I never saw it coming, if I had I would've braced myself for it. Instead, it took me by surprise, just jumped right out of the shadows and sunk its hooks into me. And now it refuses to let go, I feel like a goddamn fish. I swim and swim to try to get away, but the hooks are still there, I can still feel the pain all the same no matter what I do. My only hope is that I can get far enough away that the line snaps, though I'm not sure that'll work with heartbreak's line, it's probably made of diamond or something. I've still got to try, though, what else can I do? If I give up, it's the frying pan for me, and I have no desires to be cooked. I burn with the slightest bit of sun, so in a frying pan I'd probably turn out cajun style, and just ew on that whole idea.

It's not as easy to keep swimming away as one might think, though. I live in a small town in Vermont, you can only go so far before you're swimming in circles. So to really get away, you've got to find that little trench that will take you out to sea; or in my case, a highway that would lead me 300 miles north to a campground where I hoped my problems wouldn't follow. I wasn't really sure it would work, the hooks were in pretty damn deep, but it certainly didn't hurt to try. It was just a matter of getting there to see, and that was the hard part. Or at least in theory it was, for me, the 17-year-old only child of an overprotective single mother.

In reality, though, it wasn't at all difficult. I asked, did my best pouty "But you never let me do ANYTHING" routine, and it was done. I couldn't believe it had finally happened at all, and especially not so easily. In truth, she really never let me to do anything, but sure enough it was real; MY mother had agreed to let me, my cousin Sara, and her boyfriend Kasey take our truck and go camping. Alone, without her. That was a phenomenal show of trust for the woman who shelled out my 11PM curfew and shoved me into an All Boys School, but I'm definitely not complaining.

Camping wasn't exciting as it was, but with my mom over my shoulder every second of every day, it only got worse. Her being there would pretty much ruin the whole "swim away from heartbreak" thing that necessitated the entire trip to begin with, she'd steal it all with campfire songs and roasting hot dogs. I had to be there ALONE to accomplish what I needed, or there was no sense in going at all. Amazingly she said yes, so it was looking more and more like I might finally snap heartbreak's line and swim back off into the ocean. So to speak.

We decided to leave early Friday morning, so we'd have time to get there and set up our tents before dark. We'd still be cutting it close, depending on traffic and stops and what not, but we weren't stressing. If worse came to worse, we could just sleep in the truck. That would suck after driving the 300 miles to the campground, but it would work if need be. We weren't thinking it would be though; on a glorious July day, with the CD collections of three teenagers to keep us company, we were banking that the time would fly by.

We were right, the time did fly by. Maybe we drive too fast, but by 5:00 that afternoon we were pulling into the campground. We drove straight through from my house, only stopping once so I could piss off the side of the road, so by the time we got there our legs were in severe need of stretching. So we parked the truck at our usual spot, and Sara and Kasey started to walk down to the lake. I stopped and gave myself a quick glance in the truck mirror (I'm kinda vain, I ain't gonna lie to ya), then dug in the back for my bag. My gel had long since ceased holding my spiky brown hair, so I was in major need of a hat. Not that I had anyone to look good for here, it was just a rule I had of never letting my hair look like shit in public. That hat took care of that for me in an instant, then I ran to catch up with Sara and Kasey.

"This place never changes, does it?" Sara asked me as I caught up with them.

"Nope, doesn't seem to," I replied, glancing around at our surroundings.

We'd been coming to this place since we were babies, and nothing ever seemed to change. That was good though, comforting, and also why I picked this place to try and get away from my troubles.

"Good," Kasey piped in. "This place is classic, this is primitive camping, the way it was meant to be."

"I don't care what it is, it's the most relaxing place on Earth," I said with a faint sigh.

Sara smiled sadly, patting me on the shoulder. "And heaven knows you need it."

I cracked a half smile in return, then took a seat at the bank overlooking the lake. Whenever I was here, I spent the majority of my time at this bank, with my feet hanging over the edge, just like I always had. The lake was always so beautiful, the sun always hit it just the right way, to make it a breathtaking mix of aqua and orange. I could get lost so easily sitting out here, it's just that sort of place where you go and instantly drift away. But I'm not complaining, that was kind of the point of this weekend after all. And odds are I'd need it double time here and there, being here with the happy couple.

It probably wasn't the smartest thing in the world, coming here to get away from my heartbreak with a couple whose biggest problem ever had been what colors to wear to prom. But there was no one else to choose, really. It was a stretch asking my mom if I could come here even with them, there's no way she ever would've agreed to let me go alone. And even if she had, I probably wouldn't have wanted to anyway. Sara was my best friend my entire life, the person I turned to when things got rough. She was, and always had been my confidant, my shoulder to cry on. When this entire mess went down, she was the one I ran to, because I knew she'd listen and try to help me through it; also because she was one of three whole people alive who knew I was gay. Kasey was another, and the other was the whole reason I took this trip at all.

His name was Will. To summarize it quickly, Will was this incredibly hot guy on my baseball team. He was gay also, and one day he'd come out to me. I was so excited to have finally met another gay person not on the internet, that I went and blurted out that I was gay too. And from that moment on, he had made it known in no uncertain terms that he was interested in me. So we started "going steady", which in a closeted gay relationship is a friendship with sex behind closed doors. But that's not a bad thing, in fact in this case it as a damn good thing. Until one night we forgot to lock the door.

I was staying at his house that night, just like I'd done for most of our "relationship." And again just like most of our relationship, we started to fool around. Unfortunately this time his mom walked in on us. Needless to say, she freaked, pulled him out of our school, and told him he was never allowed to speak to me again. I was heartbroken, to say the least. The first guy to show interest in me, and I lost him because his mother was a homophobe. I was and still am, I guess, really depressed about it. Thankfully though I had Sara and Kasey to help me through it, or I may be much worse off.

Sara had been the one to suggest here as the place for me to get away from the pain. I didn't have to think very long to know she was right, it was exactly the place I needed. A nice relaxing setting to go to for few days away, to help me get my mind straight. Well, not straight straight, but you know what I'm talking about.

I really did feel like this place was the most relaxing spot on Earth. And even if all I did for this entire weekend was sit here at this bank and stare out at the lake, I'd be fine with that. Because even if it's still on my mind, the heartbreak doesn't hurt so bad here. It may not leave completely like I was hoping, not if I can't stop thinking about it, but I think that hook might be working itself loose. Maybe if I stayed here at this bank a while longer, it'd really fall out...

"Well, I think we should go set the tents up," He said, breaking the silence as he stood.

"Yeah, you're right," Sara agreed, extending her hands up to Kasey.

He pulled her to her feet, placing a quick peck to her lips, then looked down at me where I still sat on the bank. "You coming Cam?"

"Nah," I replied, shaking my head. "I think I'll stay here for a little while,"

"Alright," Sara nodded with a smile, slipping her hand into Kasey's.

I flashed a soft smile in return, then watched the two of them as they walked back towards our camp. As much as I was jealous of their happiness, I couldn't begrudge it from either of them. They were two of the most important people in my life, I wanted nothing more than for them to be happy. Their happiness just happened to come from each other, in a disgustingly sappy and sometimes annoying way. I'm not bitter though, it's good to have them around as a reminder that relationships can be good with the right person. It's just not as easy to find that person when you're a closeted gay teenager.

There were times, A LOT of times, when I wished Kasey was gay. Wishful thinking, I know, but that hope had been there since he'd moved to our town a few years ago. If he wanted me and not Sara, I could say he'd stepped out of my fantasies completely formed. Blonde hair and green eyes, 6'3" a svelt 200lbs of solid muscle, an All-State swim star with a body to kill for and a personality to match. Sara was one lucky bitch, he was essentially the perfect guy. I can't even put into words what I'd do for a guy like him, but let's just say it involves my soul and a street corner in Hell. Not that it mattered though, guys like that were one in a million, and I think Kasey was the only one of his kind in all of the US. And unfortunately for me, he was as straight as one could be. So I settled on friendship, because that was better than nothing. And if I couldn't have him, there wasn't anyone I'd want to have him more than Sara. At least I still got to hear what he was like in bed that way.

Once the two of them were gone from my sight, I turned my gaze back to the lake. The sun was setting off in the distance now, turning the water to an almost purple hue as it hit the teal water. But as beautiful as that was, there was a far more gorgeous sight strolling up the beach with a towel in his hand that caught my eye. Maybe it's shallow of me, but I'd much rather look at a hot guy than a sunset any day. And from what I could see of this guy, he was obviously the more pleasant sight.

I turned toward him, crouching down a bit to not be too obvious in my voyeurism. This guy was gorgeous, that became more apparent with my better view; he had to be at least 6'4", dark blonde hair, and his body...'wow' was the only word I could think to describe that. This guy was built. His arms, his chest, his abs, this guy was instant hardon material. If I were sitting in a less open area, I would've pulled out my cock and jerked off right there. But I'm not that much of an exibitionist, and there's no way not to be seen here on this bank (at least not before dark.) So instead I decided to keep watching him, implant his image in my mind, and jerk off later on that night. Yeah, that is kind of perverted of me But it's a damn good way to get my mind even further off of Will and heartbreak.

I continued to watch him as he dove into the water, swimming out aways before coming back up. That only made the hardon I had worse, seeing him dripping wet and gleaming in what little sunlight was left. There was something undeniably sexy about a guy all wet like that, that was a major factor why I always went to Kasey's swim meets. This guy alone wasn't quite the same as a watching a whole team of guys swimming around, but it was probably the best viewing I'd get all weekend. So I laid down on the bank, resting my head on my arms, and settled in to keep watching.

Unluckily though, my viewing didn't get much further. Not because he quit swimming, but because that bank was a little too comfortable, and I fell asleep. When I awoke it was well after nightfall, and the lake was empty and as silent as the night. He hadn't gone, though. Instead now he bent down beside me, with a towel hung over his shoulders and an eyebrow arched in confusion. I smiled nervously as my eyes gained focus on his, and quickly pushed myself to sit up.

"You alright?" He asked softly.

"Yeah," I laughed softly, trying to disquise my embarrassment. "I guess I fell asleep,"

"It's easy to do that here," He said with a smile, sitting down beside me.

My own eyebrow shot up in confusion at his actions, and I was quickly glad for the darkness surrounding us (because I look stupid as hell like that). Fortunately it was a shortlived look this time, as I managed a smile in return and returned both eyebrows to a level state.

"Do you sleep here often?" I asked in response, turning my head and wincing at the stupidity of the question.

"I guess," He replied with a shrug. "I live in the cabin down that way," He said, pointing towards the nearby trail. "So I come down here when I want to be alone,"

"It's a good place for that,"

We sat in silence for awhile after that, just staring out over the lake. I was still a bit confused as to why he was still sitting here now the he knew I was alive, but I wasn't awake enough to try and figure out why. Most of my mind's energy right now went into saying "Keep your eyes forward, DO NOT check him out." That wasn't an easy order to adhere to, though. It's a hot guy sitting shirtless next to me in just a pair of swim trunks, my hormones demanded to know if he was wearing anything underneath them. So far I'd managed to overrule them, but that couldn't last forever. It was probably in my best interests to get back to Sara and Kasey, and pronto, before I really embarrassed myself.

"So are you camping here?" He asked, halting me as I made to move.

"Yeah, with my cousin and her boyfriend," I returned with a nod. "We come up here every year,"

"Ah, I thought I'd seen you before," He said with a smile. "I'm Jon, by the way," He extended his hand.

"Cameron," I replied as I hesitantly shook his hand.

He smiled warmly, hesitating for a moment before releasing my hand. I smiled in return, tilting my head a bit in confusion. I couldn't figure out this guy, he was being incredibly nice to me for no real reason. I've seen horror movies that start like this; really hot guy talks to a girl on the beach at night, then chops her up with a chainsaw and uses her for fishbait. I really don't want to be fishbait, it's bad enough I've been the fish. But I couldn't just blow him off, if only because that could send him into a psycho mode if he indeed was one. I'd just say I needed to go set my tent up, that's not grounds for murder. Or at least I hope...

"I..." I started.

"You know, I hate to be forward here," He interrupted, leaning back slightly. "But are you gay?"

WHAT THE FUCK? I've known this guy a total of 10 minutes and already he saw right through me? I know I couldn't have possibly been that obvious, I prided myself on being straight acting, and I KNOW I didn't check him out. Did I? Maybe I did subconsciously and just didn't notice? That could happen, I guess. Or maybe he saw he watching him swim earlier? Oh man, that has to be it. I thought I was hidden good enough to stare and not get caught, but apparently not. Fuck, this really sucks. Quick, defense mode, you'll have to talk your way out of this one and fast.

"What?"

Wow, that went well. Fucking defense mode, you suck. The first thing they teach you in Closet School is to always have an answer when asked that question, and I blew it. Pretty much I'd just outed myself to a perfect stranger, that's just wonderful. Now I'd probably have to avoid this bank when I came here, saying as he lived right next door and apparently spent a lot of time here. Where the hell were my usually great defenses?

I don't know, maybe I'm just sick of lying.

"I mean, it'd be cool if you were," He said quickly, snapping me from my thoughts. "In fact, I'd kinda like it if you were."

I just sat and stared into his eyes, which in the increasing moonlight I realized were a beautiful shade of blue. Was he coming onto me? An incredibly cute stranger coming on to me? It would certainly make his behavior tonight make sense. But come on, how often does that actually happen? I already got lucky when I met Will, I couldn't possibly find another really hot guy who wanted me that easily, especially not on a camping trip. A part of me couldn't help but hope, though.

"So are you?" He asked in an unsure tone, tilting his head slightly.

I paused momentarily, chewing at my bottom lip and trying to formulate a good reply. Unfortunately nothing came to me, so I went with the only thing present in my mind.

"Are you?" I asked hesitantly, fighting back the nervousness from my voice.

"You tell me."

And with that, I found his lips on mine. My first reaction was something between a gasp in surprise and a moan from how good it felt to be kissed again. This wasn't just a quick kiss, this was a REAL kiss, the kind I'd only ever gotten from Will before. His lips touched softly against mine, our tongues writhed silkily together, more passion exuded with every touch. His arms soon wrapped around me, and I shivered against him, slipping my own arms around his neck. He smiled into the kiss with that, then took his lips from mine. I was afraid for a brief moment that it was over, that I was going to wake up any second alone on the bank, with my dick stuck to my shorts from having a wet dream. But then I felt his arms tighten around me, and gently he laid me back on the bank.

Almost immediately his lips found my neck, sucking, nibbling at it here and there as his hands slipped beneath my shirt. I lifted my arms to aid in its removal, whimpering softly from the sensations coursing through my body (my neck was a major turn-on spot for me.) But as good as that was, it nothing compared to the feelings created as his lips traveled lower, onto my chest. He began to massage my nipples with his tongue, slowly, teasingly, and I couldn't fight back a deep moan. He continued that as his free hand then found my dick, which was beginning to ache it was so hard. His hand squeezed it gently through the fabric of my shorts, my hips arching instinctively into his touch. I wanted badly for him to go lower, but I didn't have the words to say so, I was still too shocked by the entire thing. It was a good shock, though, one that was getting better with each passing second.

His lips moved eventually from my chest, working lower down along my stomach as his hands eased my shorts and boxers down. I lifted my hips slightly to help him ease them down, then again as his hand wrapped around me. I moaned deeply, my hips flexing up to meet his hand as he slowly began to stroke me. That (fortunately) lasted only briefly, as he dipped his head and began to lick along my shaft. I bit my lip to stifle a cry, clenching my hands into fists and whimpering his name. He was incredible, better than I'd ever experienced before (as much as I loved sex with Will, Jon was already better.) He took me quickly in his mouth, then began to bob up and down on my dick, pausing on the way back up each time to suck the head. I thrust up to meet him with each movement, moaning softly as his hands traced teasingly up my sides. His fingers clamped gently over my nipples, tugging at them gently, drawing another deep moan from me. I knew there was no way I could last much longer, it was too damn good, but the thought of stopping was the farthest thing from my mind. This was far too incredible to stop now.

I reached down and brushed a hand through his hair, guiding him forcelessly in his actions. That must've served as some sort of encouragement for him, as he pulled a hand away from my chest and brought it to my balls. After giving them a quick squeeze, he slipped his hand lower, trailing a finger teasingly along the crack. I whimpered a response to that, nothing understandable to even myself, but nonetheless he began to ease a finger into me. I moaned loudly from that, thrusting my hips up hard and clenching around his digit; that feeling was beyond description. Will and I had went no further than blow jobs, but I was suddenly wishing we had. The feelings Jon coaxed from me he with his finger were incredible. He probed around for a few seconds before hitting my prostate and sending shocks straight through me. He began to massage it lightly, drawning a moan from me each time, all while still sucking on my shaft. In no time after that, my grip in his hair tightened and I was moaning loudly as I came in his mouth.

I shivered and whimpered as he licked me clean, keeping my hand clenched in his hair. Once he was finished, he pressed a soft kiss to the head of my dick, then brought himself up level with me. My hand in his hair slipped lower to his neck, and I used that to bring him down to me and kissed him softly on the lips.

"My turn," I whispered, letting my lips linger on his.

He nodded slightly, rolling slowly onto his back, pulling me to follow. "Be my guest."

I grinned up at him, then slid my hand slowly down his chest, pausing to reflect on how hard his abs felt. I was a sucker for a guy with good abs, and Jon's were pretty damn impressive. But they weren't what I wanted, I'd seen enough of the upper body when he'd been swimming earlier, it was time for the lower.

I slipped my hand slowly into his shorts, earning a shiver from him, then a whimper as I bypassed his dick for his balls. I took them in my hand and squeezed them a bit, feeling him tense as I did so. As much as I may have liked to tease Will in the past, I couldn't contain myself this time, there was too much lust and too many hormones swirling around inside me. So I shifted my body to kneel between his legs and gently pulled his shorts down, exposing slowly the abdomen I had been dying to see. My jaw nearly dropped with my first glance of his dick, and I suddenly felt much smaller than I had earlier that day. That was a fleeting though in my mind, though, as I gripped his cock in my hand.

I stroked up slowly, coaxing a soft moan from him, and a drop of precum from the head. I moved my head down and licked the drop away, causing his moan to gain in volume. I grinned with satisfaction inside, simply continuing to lick around his length on the outside, savoring every taste I got. He thrust hips hips up with every touch, moaning my name softly. I took that as an encouraging hint, and took him into my mouth. I felt him tense, and his cock pulsed against my tongue. I reached up to stroked his chest with my free hand, beginning slowly to bob my head. He moaned as steadily as my movements, threading a hand through my hair. I let him guide me like that, sucking for all I was worth, running my tongue along the underside as I did so. I began to squeeze his balls lightly as I moved, getting an almost growl out of him with every squeeze. I could feel his balls tensing in my hands, and from experience I knew he was nearing orgasm. I couldn't wait to see (or taste for that matter) what kind of load Jon's cock would deliever.

I increased my suction around him, bobbing my head faster as well, moaning softly as I did. He then moaned deeply, and I felt his balls tense in my hand as he shot his load in my mouth. The force of it was nearly overwhelming, but the sweet taste ensured I stayed on his cock and took it all. Once I felt the last shot hit my tongue, I pulled back slowly and began to lick up what I hadn't swallowed. He groaned low in his throat, writhing beneath my ministrations, and tugged gently at my hair to pull me up to him. I followed with no resistance, kissing him deeply for just a moment before laying against his chest.

"Fuck, that was amazing," He breathed, stroking a hand through my hair.

"I know," I nodded, pressing a soft kiss to his chest. "I don't know what it was, but I've never felt like that before."

He laughed softly, slipping his arms around me and hugging gently. "I know what you mean. I haven't had head that good in like...ever,"

I laughed softly, cuddling against his chest and breathing a deep sigh. His arms tightened around me, and he pressed a soft kiss atop my head. I couldn't help but smile with that, and it was then that it really occurred to me what had just happened. I'd just hooked up with a total stranger on a public beach, where anyone could've, and maybe did see. And not only that, but I was now laying naked cuddled against him. Every logical part of my mind told me to get the hell up, and get back to Sara and Kasey, like I'd been meaning to since he'd first woke me up. But for some reason, I couldn't bring myself to move. I wanted nothing more than to just stay right where I was, laying against the chest of a man who I knew nothing more about than his name and that he had a big cock. I couldn't explain that feeling, much like I couldn't explain how any of this had happened at all. But I wasn't really sure I cared right now, because I felt...good. I felt happy. And believe me, that's a big deal with the way I've felt lately. There's still one thing bugging me, though.

"Can I ask you something?" I asked softly, lifting my head to look at him.

"Anything," He replied with a smile.

"How did you know I was gay?"

He laughed softly, shrugging a shoulder. "I'm not really sure. There was just this little connection I felt. Maybe it was gaydar."

I laughed, shrugging as he had, before laying my head back on his chest. He kissed me atop the head again, and I sighed softly with contentment. 'A connection,' I thought to myself. 'I guess that's what this is.' I didn't have any other words to describe it, and really I didn't care to try. I'd come here to get away from heartbreak, to just relax and clear my mind, and somehow wound up sucking off some guy I've never met. I wasn't the type to do that, I'd only ever been with Will before this, so there had to be something there that made me do it. Something more than hormones, anyway. I didn't know what it was, but I was damn thankful it had been there.

This wasn't even a possibility in my mind of how I could get away from the heartbreak when I came here, but you know I think I did. I feel really, truly happy, for the first time since the stuff with Will first happened. I didn't know why, I couldn't explain my feelings, but I didn't care about either. I was just going to enjoy this while I could.

I was no longer on heartbreak's line, the pain was gone, and the hook was left somewhere on the banks of the beach. And for now at least, I had no worries about it catching me again.
