" Pete stared atJoseph for a moment and then cracked a smile. Of course, he was scaredout of his wits that his friend actually meant it."Dude, what th... fuck are you talking about? That's insane." I'm serious. My mother told me about an hour before I called you." I came over here for this? I thought you were in serious trouble.Fuck. You shouldn't do that." Joseph grabbed Pete's arm and squeezed."I'm not fucking with you man... at least not yet. The subtle changeshave started. I'm already feeling. This is gonna be okay. Let's go eat."And heaven help me, but the tastiest thing imaginable was walking toward the door.We did the restaurant she'd talked about. Had a couple of margaritas apiece, too. Not enough for a buzz, though, which meant that on the way back to the hotel..."Barry, do you ever drink wine?" On occasion. Why?" Sometimes a glass of wine ... And not that Strawberry Hill crap. Do you wanna?" Let's see if we can find a place." I'm on it," she said, thumbs dancing on her. As we left the ladder, the darkies barraged us with blasts. Somehow we made it to the street without getting fried, running as fast as we could to get away.I don't know how we got there, like I said, I had gotten hopelessly lost in my run, but before I knew it, we were back at the shelter. We couldn't go in, it would risk too many lives, so we prepared to run right by. Before we could, we saw one of the darkies in front of us. He had separated from his partner and gotten ahead of us. We turned. Bed time came and i retired to my room and thankfully Simon stayed in his room.Next evening Simon asked if we wanted some of his friends over friday night?I said sure but not that gay guy with the tiny cock please ... he laughed and said sure .. how many should i invite ? I said well Tam (who i liked ) Ty (who was amazing) and is Oly back from off shore yet? Simon said i will find out . Julia asked about David and Simon said yeah i get David too.Friday night arrived and Julia had set up.
