Wow, I hope he doesn't see me.

Can I come in?  Chapter 4.

The perfect day was followed by a lonely night.  Donald saw Danny to his truck and managed to resist trying to kiss him goodnight.  Danny started the truck and rolled down the window.  "I'm glad we're friends, Mr.Donald." Danny said.  "Me to Mr. Danny." Donald teased.

As Danny drove off Donald turned to look in his empty house.  "I gotta get some furniture." He thought.  He walked inside feeling happy, but it soon got too quiet.  He realized he was still alone.  He missed his lover and Danny.  He started to worry about the Danny situation.  He was in love with the guy already.  How could his heart stand another blow.  He went to his bedroom and sat on his bed.  He started thinking about the day he'd had.  He could smell Danny on him.  Danny smelled so sexy even when he was drenched with sweat.  Donald had made sure to get Danny's arm pit sweat on his arm when they were horsing around.  

He smelled his arm.  A big smile came over his face when the smelled Danny.  His cock sprang to attention. He began stroking it slowly, wishing he'd used the other arm to garner the scent.  He closed his eyes and leaned back against the head board.  He opened his eyes just enough to see the red baseball cap between the crumple blinds of his window.  He grabbed his bottle of lube and squirted some on his stiff rod.  He began stroking.  He'd never put on a show for someone before, but it was turning him on think about someone watching.  He used every different style or stroke he'd ever used or seen in a porn flick.  He edged himself several times.

Outside the young neighborhood peeping Tom was standing on one of his folks lawn chairs in the bushes by Donald's window.  He stared through the blinds.  He'd never watched a man jack off before.  His buddies had talked about circle jerks but never got around to doing one.  He'd jacked off but it was always just as fast as he could get off.  He'd never had time or the place to enjoy it.  He undid his jeans and let them drop.  He pushed his boxers down and began stroking his uncut dick.  He compared Donald's with his.  He liked the look of Donald's cut dick but he liked the loose foreskin of his.  He moved his feet farther apart and almost fell.  "Wow, I hope he doesn't see me.  This is the hottest thing I've ever seen, even hotter than when they were horsing around at the pool." Parker thought.

Inside Donald was getting too close to hold off any more.  He let his load fly.  At the same time outside, Parker shot his load against the wall, and fell to the ground with the chair crashing against the wall.  He jumped up struggling to pull his pant up.  Donald hear the crash and smiled.

The next morning Donald woke up late.  He got up and went to the kitchen to make coffee.  He hadn't bothered to put clothes on so he had to dash from the hall into the kitchen.  It was a short distance, but the living room window illuminated the wall he passed by.  Anyone outside would be able to see him.  He looked out the window as he passed and stopped short.  

Danny was sitting on the back bumper of his truck talking to a guy wearing a baseball cap.  He was a little younger than Danny.  They seemed to be friends.  Donald ran back into his bedroom and put on a pair of shorts and a t-shirt.  He went to the door.  "Hey Danny, You're early." Donald said.

"Hey Mr. Donald, meet Parker.  He's your neighbor." Danny said.

"Hi Parker, nice to meet you." Donald said, hiding his desire to ask him if he hurt himself when he fell outside his window.

"Hi Mr....Donald?" Parker said.

"Just Don." Donald said.

"I just like to call him that." Danny said in a cute boyish way.  "Parker was a freshman the year I was a senior, before the wreck.  He used to spy on me in the showers." Danny said.

"Danny, I can't believe you said that!" Parker yelled.  "God I'm so embarrassed." 

"You were spying on us in the pool yesterday to." Danny said poking at Parker's chest.  Parker started to turn and walk away.  Danny grabbed his arm and pulled him back.  "Don't be mad." Danny said.

"It's okay Parker I don't care.  I just want you to know Danny isn't gay.  We're just friends fooling around." Donald said.

"I know he isn't gay, I knew him in school.  He's right.  I did spy on him in the shower.  He caught me once and  kicked my ass." Parker said.

"I'm sorry for that Parker.  I wasn't a very nice guy." Danny said. "And I'm sorry I blabbed.  I just say stuff  that I shouldn't sometimes ." Danny said sincerely. 

"That's okay, at least I got to touch you when you were naked." Parker said.

"Sounds like you had a crush on Danny." Donald said.

"Oh God did I.  I almost died when they told me you weren't coming back to school." Parker said.

"I almost died, not you." Danny said with a serious face, then he laughed.

"I can't believe it's you.  Working right next door to my house.  That's why I was spying on you guys." Parker said.  

"It's me.  Not the big football hero I was supposed to be but it's me, the lawn boy." Danny said.

"You miss playing football?" Donald asked.

"Sometimes, I don't miss the sacks though.  I think my brain would have been messed up if I was playing football now.  I probably be stup....  messed up." Danny said remembering Donald's scolding.  "I ought to get to work before it get too hot.  Do you want me to help paint or work on the back yard?" Danny asked Donald.  

"I can finish the painting, if you want to work on the yard." Donald said, surprised at the professional tone of Danny's voice.  Danny looked sad as he left them and headed for the house.

"What's wrong with him?" Parker said.

"He get's sad thinking about the things he used to do.  He's aware of his problems.  He's so normal in some ways but so much like a child in others." Donald told Parker.

"I think he's adorable.  I've always had the hots for him, but now he's nice to." Parker said.

"I know what you mean.  I think he had me when I first saw him." Donald said.  

"Oh, I guess you saw me last night to." Parker confessed.

"Yeah, that's okay if you're old enough.  I don't want to get pegged a sex offender." Donald said.

"I'm old enough to know better than to do what I did. I'm sorry." Parker said.

"Don't be it turned me on and got my mind off Danny for a while." Donald said.

"You're in love with him aren't you?" Parker said.

"Is it that obvious?" Donald said.

"Yeah, your eyes showed it.  You're totally in love with him." Parker.

"I'm about to break my heart again." Donald said with a big sigh.

"I don't know, he's got a lot of nice things to say about you.  If any guy gets him it's probably going to be you." Parker said.

"If, that's the key word." Donald said.  "I better get inside.  It's nice to meet you Parker." Donald said.  They shook hands and Donald went inside.  Danny was sitting on the back deck loading his trimmer with line.  He looked angry.  

"Hey Danny, are you okay?" Donald said.

"I'm okay.  I just wish I could be right." Danny said. Then suddenly he put the trimmer down.  His eyes were wide and blinking oddly.  "Mr. Donald, I think I'm going to have a problem.  Don't call 911 or anything.  Just keep me from breaking anything." Danny said.

"Huh, I don't..." Donald started.  Danny move away from the side of the pool.  He looked at Donald with fear in his eyes and went into a gran maul seizure.  Donald could do nothing but try to keep him from hurting himself.  The seizure only lasted about thirty seconds but it was nearly ten minutes before Danny completely stopped jerking.  Donald carried him inside and put him in his bed.  He lay beside him waiting for him to come around.  

"Sorry......Mr. Don....can't work........sorry......can't" Danny struggled to talk.  Donald broke down in tears at the sad look on Danny's face.  

"Just rest, Danny." Donald said.  Danny slept for most of the day.  Donald finished up his painting but checked on Danny frequently.  That evening Donald got hungry and went into the kitchen to make dinner.  He was cooking when Danny came in and hugged him from behind.  

"I'm sorry about that.  I've been forgetting to take my medicine.  That was a bad one." Danny said.

"You scared the hell out of me, you butt hole." Donald said.

"I never wanted you to see that." Danny said.  "Thank you for taking care of me."

"You shouldn't live alone...." Donald cursed himself inside for saying that.

"I know.  I thought I wanted to live alone to prove to everyone I'm normal.  But I'm not normal.  I can't cook.  I can't pay my own bills cuz I can't read them.  I can tell you exactly how much money I have in the bank but I can't write checks.  I've been getting by but everything's starting to get messed up.  I don't know what to do.  That's why I screwed up my medicine.  I haven't been sleeping much at all.  I wish I could live with you." Danny said.  

Donald was silent.  He was trying to process the words he just heard and respond to them.  He turned the stove off and took the pans off the burners.  He slowly turned to Danny.  Danny was sitting on the bar stool at the kitchen island.  His head rested on his arms.  "Danny?  Did you mean that?" Donald said.

"There I go again, talking and not thinking." Danny mumble into his arms.

"I'd love to have you live here Danny.  I just don't know if I can keep from falling in love with you." Donald said.

"No body loves me, I'm all messed up." Danny said.

"You know what, according to Parker you're better now.  Now you're beautiful and nice." Donald said.

"He said that?" Danny said.

"Yeah, he's as crazy about you as I am." Donald said.  "That's my problem.  I want you more than just as a friend." Donald confessed.

"God, why'd I say that? I open my mouth and everything I'm thinking falls out.  I'm going home.  I'll go away."  Danny cried out as he got up to leave.

"Danny, don't leave.  You didn't do anything wrong.  I was just surprised, please stay and talk to me." Donald begged.

"No, I messed up saying that stuff.  I have to go." Danny insisted heading for the door.

"Will you come by tomorrow?" Donald said.

"I have to do some lawns for other people tomorrow, I promised them.  I'll see you in a couple days." Danny said.

"I'm sorry Danny. Please come back." Donald begged.

"I will in a couple days, Mr. Donald." Danny said slipping out the door.  Donald went to the door and watched as Danny got in his truck and drove off.  He closed the door sadly and went to bed.

He lay awake all night thinking about Danny.  He thought about what he could have said or should have said.  He cursed himself for hurting Danny.  He wondered how he could go on now.  In just a couple days he'd fallen in love and his heart was breaking at the thought that he'd screwed it up.  It was after four in the morning before he went to sleep.
