"What time will you be home?" asked Nick.

"I don't know, probably late" replied Howie.

"I'll wait up for you. Draw us a nice bubble bath. We can relax."

"You'll fall asleep, like always."

"I don't fall asleep, I nod off" said Nick.

"Yeah, you nod off until I have to carry you to bed" said Howie.

"I'll stay awake, I promise" said Nick.

"Sure you will. Look, I've gotta go. I love you" said Howie.

"I love you too. You just think about that bubble bath. Just the two us, the water, our naked bodies. Do you know if you were here right now what I would do to you" said Nick.

"You keep this up and your going to leave me with one serious problem."

"That was so grooce (SP???)" said Aaron.

"Aaron, how long have you been standing there" said Nick.

"Long enough to want to puke. Do you really have to get all mushy" said Aaron.

"I love him."

"Someday you find someone. And you'll love them just as much as I do Howie.

"What? No way. You ain't gonna see me stick my dick up some guy's ass." said Aaron nervously avoiding Nick's gaze.

"Hey I wasn't...Look, it's ok to be straight.

"What if I wasn't" said Aaron.

"Then that would be cool too" said Nick smiling.

"So you and Howie have a night of sex planned" said Aaron.

"I love you bro but I think your just a little young to be discussing my sex life with " said Nick.

"Come on man. It's not like I haven't done it" said Aaron.

"What did you say."

"Nothing, nevermind. Your right it's none of my business I think I'll just go play a video game or something."

"Oh know you don't" said Nick grabbing Aaron by the collar. Have you and Hilary been..."

"What, no. We're not having sex. I mean we fooled around a few times but that's all" said Aaron.

"Fooled around, as in what?"

"Just some oral. replied Aaron.

Bro, oral is sex" said Nick.

"Oral's not sex. It's just oral."

"Then whey do they call it oral sex" said Nick.

"How should I know."

"Look, if your going to be. Here, take this" said Nick reaching into the drawer.

"A condom. Dude, I think I can get my own condom's" said Aaron.

"Take it, will you. If the two of you are going to have sex you need to be carefull" said Nick.

"We're not having sex."

"Then you can take it just in case. You never know."

"Man, we broke up. It's not going to happen" said Aaron frowning.

"

"Fine."

"Just be carefull, will you" said Nick.

"Yeah, yeah. Hold on. Hello?"

"Hi."

"Hey."

"Is this a bad time" said Hilary

"No."

"I just wanted to here your voice. I miss you. I wish you were here to wrap your arms around me" said Hilary

"If I was there I would be doing more than wrapping my...Could you hold on a second. Would you mind giving me a little privacy" said Aaron turning to Nick.

"What's the matter. You don't want to get mushy in front of your older brother" said Nick.

"No."

"Fine, I'll just go watch some TV" said Nick.
