Tommy and Tanner, Chapter 39

It was nearing the end of May and suddenly it felt like summer outside. When the cool weather went away, the hot replaced it without as many days of transition as some years. For those who had been snowbound in the winter, that was okay.

Spring track was in full swing and heading for its final events. Again the boys' team had qualified to compete in the state meets. This year, Tommy and Tanner felt like they were able to contribute more since both were participating in a relay race with Andy and Devin. It was one that would affect the team's all-over standing. Devin was definitely their anchor man, but the other three had come a long way in a year's time.

Coach Lewis was eager for them to have the experience whether they did well or not. He was grooming them for the future.

As they had done the year before, Tommy and Tanner shared a room with Andy. Of course this year, Devin was part of the foursome. It was great for all of the boys because they didn't have to face bunking with guys who might not want to share a room with known gays. They didn't need the privacy in order to fool around because they weren't necessarily planning to make love, but they liked the freedom of being able to hold hands, kiss, and cuddle if they wanted to.

Tommy, Tanner, and Andy couldn't help but think about the year before when Mason had shared a room with them. It briefly brought a feeling of somber remembrance. Fortunately, they were housed in a different hotel which didn't remind them of Mason at every turn. The death of Darrel Frey had also provided some closure, but many memories wouldn't face for years - if ever.

The new hotel was exactly that, brand new. The owner had been a track star in his high school days and had offered the place at a bargain rate to schools participating in the state meets. It wouldn't officially open until the next week, so this was like a shakedown cruise to let the staff get used to running it smoothly. He had warned the schools that service might not be perfect, but most of those staying there were too young and inexperienced to know the difference. Besides, for what they were paying, they couldn't ask for more.

On the first night, the boys hung around in their room snuggling and talking - clad in only their underwear. Before lights-out, they stripped and quickly climbed into bed naked with their boyfriends. Then they all started to giggle as they realized the only switch they could find for the main lights was near the door, meaning that someone would have to get up to turn them off.

"I nominate, Devin!" Tommy said. "He's the one who got naked first, so he should do it."

"I think you should do it," Devin replied. "I might embarrass myself."

"Uh, you've been on teams a long time and been naked in locker rooms around everyone, so how could you possibly be embarrassed?" Tommy wondered. "Your dick is about the same size as everyone else's here."

"There's this big embarrassing thing in my hand that he might not want to show," Andy giggled.

"It's not like we haven't seen that too," Tanner reminded them. "I'll do it. If someone doesn't volunteer we'll be awake all night and I'll be too tired to run tomorrow."

Having said that, he got out of bed, half-mast, and walked across the room, his flexing butt muscles making a very pleasant sight. The other boys whistled appreciatively, so he purposely wiggled his ass more in response. There was enough light coming through the gap in the drapes to illuminate his full-blown erection on the way back to his bed.

"Bring that thing over here, NOW!" Tommy teased.

Their plans to do nothing but cuddle were soon abandoned.


The boys were up early because it was their big day. Excitement and a bit of nerves kept them from sleeping as long as they'd have liked. After quick showers, they dressed and went to the breakfast buffet, filling their plates with eggs, hash-browns, toast, and sausage to assuage their appetites knowing that they wouldn't feel like eating lunch before their events in the afternoon.

When it was nearing the time for their relay team to compete, the four sat on a bench quietly and meditated for a couple of minutes. Their kempo training helped them to have the self-discipline to focus.

They were up against several very strong teams made up mostly of senior boys, one of which edged them out. But coming in second made them very pleased for having made such a good showing as sophomores.

Tommy, Tanner, Andy, and Devin received lots of high-fives and pats on their butts from teammates congratulating them on their efforts. Despite not coming in first, theirs was a significant contribution to the school's standing at the meet. Several sports reporters took note of the fact that they were the youngest team to compete and made positive predictions for their future.

There was only one derogatory comment from anyone, and that was from Bart who said something about fairies being light on their feet. As far as he was concerned, running was for fags anyway. Real men did the discus and shot put. He said that he was going to dominate the field in those events on the following day.

A couple of seniors from another school overheard his remarks and told him to "shut the fuck up." Since they were both nearly as big as he was, he had the good sense to walk away and not start a fight.


Once they were showered and clad in their dress-casual clothes, the four boys could kick back and relax. Tomorrow they would be rooting for Tim and other teammates, but wouldn't be participating.

That evening, most of the boys on the team ate heartily. Many had expended a lot of energy from adrenalin as well as from sheer physical activity. They had been careful not to load up too close to the time they competed, so their stomachs were growling before they finally got filled. Some, like Tim, ate moderately because they were looking forward to another full day of the same.

The new hotel had many health-club facilities that the boys could use. Besides the pool and whirlpool, there was a fairly well appointed workout area complete with separate male and female steam rooms and saunas connected to the locker rooms.

Some of the boys decided to try those latter amenities before they became crowded. Tommy and Tanner led the way, hanging their towels outside the door of the steam room and going in naked. Andy and Devin grinned as they follow suit. Since no one else had joined them as yet and the low-lit atmosphere was dense as an old fashioned London fog, they chanced fooling around enough to sprout major hardons. There was lots of giggling in the process.

Tim had seen his brothers go in but was going to try the sauna when he saw Bart heading for the steam room. Sensing that Bart's presence could only lead to no good, he decided to go in too and try the sauna later.

When they'd heard the door open, the boys had moved apart and sat so that their junk wouldn't be noticeable, especially in the thick steam.

"I see a bunch of fags with hardons in here," Bart announced. "I'll bet you were all sucking dick til I came in."

"You must be staring really hard if you can see our dicks at all," Devin countered. "How come you're so fascinated by what we're packing? Are you jealous? Did you want to suck some big ones?"

"Shut up fairy or I'll..."

"Or you'll do what?" Tim said as he came into the small room.

"Someday you won't be around and I'll teach these cock-suckers a thing or two."

"Do you plan to demonstrate how to give good head?" Tommy giggled.

"You fags won't be laughing later, dumb-fuck!" Bart threatened.

"Whatever," Tanner scoffed. "We're not afraid of you or your tiny dick."

Bart left, knowing that he was outnumbered at the moment and figuring that the coach would side with the Torrance boys if there were any kind of scuffle. He couldn't understand how adults were likely to take their word over his. His chance would come sometime in the future when Tim wasn't around.

"You may have pushed Bart a little farther than you intended by questioning the size of his dick," Tim warned. "But I would have done the same. In fact, I happen to know he's not as well hung as any of you, well at least I think so. He always hides in the corner in the showers at school but he couldn't in those old fashioned pillar-type ones in the field house today and I saw his erection. I've seen Tommy hard and there's no competition. I can only guess about the rest."

"Do I measure up?" Andy giggled as he came over beside Tim to show off his hardon under the dim light.

"Hell yes!" Tim exclaimed.

"Well, my boyfriend has about half an inch more than I do."

"And I'm almost exactly the same size as Tommy as you probably know," Tanner announced proudly.

"That confirms my original statement." Tim laughed. "Poor Bart is outclassed in this group. He'd be embarrassed to compete with Tuck and Bobby in that department."

Several guys from other teams came into the steam room about that time. Some were in workout shorts, but most were naked. Tim figured the boys wouldn't be bothered by Bart again, especially with a crowd around, so he left soon after to use the sauna before going to his room to rest up for tomorrow's events.


"It's hard to see in here, but aren't you the sophomores from Middleton who nearly whipped our asses in the relays?" a senior boy asked.

"Uh, well we did come in second," Tanner admitted wondering where this discussion was headed and hoping for the best.

"Congratulations," the boy said extending his fist to dap with the four. "I might come back next year to see you guys take first. Right now, I know no one at our school could come close to you. Perhaps they'll mature by then, but you'll also have another year's experience."

"Thanks!" the guys said in chorus.

"I thought maybe you were pissed at us for coming so close," Andy ventured.

"Me too," Tanner grinned.

"Not at all; I love getting pushed! This is a sport, not a war. I consider myself a pretty good athlete and it's a sorry day if athletes who are competition material can't appreciate talent in others when they see it. You guys are great! I hope you keep it up and win next year."

"Down Dalton, don't hit on them!" one of his teammates teased.

After the ice had been broken, everyone in the room began to chatter away as if they'd been life-long buds. They critiqued the day's events and speculated on the ones to come.


Tommy, Tanner, Andy, and Devin had hit the showers and were dressing when Coach Lewis and a number of other adult males came into the locker room area to shag their teams out and off to bed. No one was concerned about the ones who weren't competing the next day, but encouraged all to get a good night's rest.

When the boys got to their shared room, they stripped down and got in their respective beds. This time, Tanner made sure the only lights left on were the ones with switches next to the bed. He spied another one that was partially hidden behind the oversized headboard. When he flicked it, the overhead light came on.

"Hey, where was this last night? I could have avoided giving a show."

"I knew it was there all the time," Devin giggled. "I wanted to see your cute bare ass."

"You didn't have to resort to trickery," Tanner laughed. "All you had to do was ask."

Then he got up on his knees and shot Devin a full moon with his balls hanging below it. Everyone laughed so hard that they nearly fell out of bed.

A few minutes later, when the lights were out, each pair cuddled and kissed. There was probably a little fooling around, but evidently nothing serious because the next sounds in the room were those of deep breathing.


The next day was more leisurely for the foursome, but they made sure to be in the stands cheering for their schoolmates, many of whom did well.

Tim won in the shot put, bettering his last record by half an inch. Bart, who had also competed in the event, came in a distant fifth, much to his chagrin. He didn't come close in the discus throw either, belying his earlier boasts. Not everyone was sorry to see him make a bad showing, if truth be told.

Several others on the team equaled or bettered their previous records. All in all, Coach Lewis was happy with his team. Bart's performance was the only real disappointment. Lewis hoped that the boy had learned a lesson about shooting off his mouth and not being able to back it up with results. If only Bart would work on techniques that the coaches suggested instead of doing things his own way, he could be a winner.


Final exams for the seniors came about a week after the state track meets so that grades could be calculated before graduation. The rest of the students took theirs a week later.

A number of kids got together to review, and that included the middle Torrance brothers and their two best friends. They were fairly confident that they would do well since they'd kept up all semester, but some last minute reinforcement couldn't hurt.

When the last one was over on Thursday, the four guys rode their bicycles to Milio's for a quick celebratory lunch before going to their respective homes. They were all to meet at Tommy and Tanner's home for a sleepover after dinner. They were planning to spend the whole next day together as well – part of it at the city pool which would be opening for the summer season. They would all go together to watch Tim and other older friends, like Chas, Drake, and Chris, graduate on Friday night.

Tim and Melody were looking forward to the ceremony, not so much for the recognition of having completed high school, but that it meant the end of one chapter of their lives and the beginning of another. They had planned their parties for different days so that each could spend time with the other at those events. Tim's party was on Saturday afternoon and Melody's on Sunday.

When the evening finally arrived, the seniors marched into the city conference center to strains of "Pomp and Circumstance" accompanied by their homeroom teachers who were also garbed in caps and gowns.

Tim's friends and family watched proudly as he stood up several times with others to be recognized for his achievements. Melody and many of their friends were similarly honored.

Tori's usual caregiver had volunteered to stay with her so that the whole family could attend the ceremony. Floyd, Jeri, and Jim had come as well. Jim had brought along a pretty middle aged lady named Lara Peterson who fit in perfectly with the family.


Tim and Melody had invitations to way more parties than they could possibly attend. The fact that some of those parties were at the same time as theirs helped to cut down the list somewhat. Still it was difficult to make choices.

The younger boys were also invited to those of older friends from teams they'd been on. They hitched rides with other friends or went with Tim to some of them.

At Drake's party, Chris was at his side most of the afternoon. Drake's father noticed and made some comment that Chris was taking the place of a girlfriend. Drake was quick-witted enough to make a joke about it instead of acting offended. His outwardly relaxed attitude defused what might have turned into an ugly confrontation. Chris left about half an hour later.

Before he did, he and Drake asked Tommy and Tanner if they'd be interested in camping some weekend with them and probably Andy and Devin. Their parents hadn't heard any school gossip, so didn't know that the younger boys had come out. Since Tim wouldn't have much time for an adventure like that, they hoped his younger brothers would be available. Both boys readily agreed to the plan.

Melody never left Tim's side at his party and he was her constant companion at hers. Teri smiled at how much Melody played the role of hostess at their house. Jeri and Lara had pitched in to create a very good spread for Tim's friends and family to enjoy. Jeri hoped that Jim would continue to bring her to family events. She was about 180 degrees from Cynthia in attitude. It was she who had started calling him "Jim" instead of "James" as his ex-wife had insisted upon.

By Sunday night, most of the celebrations had ended. Tark and Teri would have to go back to school on Monday and Tuesday to do clerical work and attend the workshop that had been postponed because of the making up of snow-days. It would be a fairly easy time with no students or classes. Tark, however, would be going back the following week to teach summer school. It wasn't his first choice, but he couldn't turn down the offer to make a little more money.
