A boy of thirteen sat on a log by a stream. he had saphire eyes that shimmered in the light that reflected off the crystal waters and dark brown hair that shined like a horses main. he played a sweet unfamiliar tune on his harmonica that had even the birds silent just to hear the almost tangibly soothing melody that blew from the lungs of this pretty boy.

he came here often to be with the flow of the stream and the beauty of the sun. somehow it made the misery die away for back home the sound of hatred came from every word of every childs mouth for him being the only gay student in a backwash town with nothing to do. he loved this spot on broke back mountain because he felt a strange calling and need that could only be filled with the sand between his toes and the splashing of the water on his face. the gental call of the wild made him feel at home.

what little tony didnt know was that some one had been watching him from high up in the trees above his head listening carfully to every tune that came out of the metal piece that seemed to fit perfectly between the brunettes lips. this boy was seemingly different for he had a straw hat to cover his golden locks and a friendly smile where his white teeth glistened along with the waters from the streem and his green eyes that made you wanna melt into his arms.

tony heard a gental sigh from high up above and turned up to see the boy trying to back away from sight but before he could the branch holding him up snapped sending him crashing down.

THUD! AHH! OWWW!

The straw hat dangled from a low branch. the blond headed boys head rested in the now unconcious brunettes lap. kyles face bled from the sudden fall and tonys hed had colided with the wooden set behind the two. kyle sat up and peered into tonys gental sleeping face. he got to his knees and and began rubbing the back of tonys head to wake him up. tonys eyes fluttered open. for the first time the two boys locked eyes and felt a strange kind emotion flood through them.

"your bleeding" tonys sweet voice ran through kyles ears softly making his insides shake.

"s- sorry"

"dont apologize you fell out of a tree and hurt your self theres no fault in that."

"im just lucky you were here to break my fall"

"my plaesure" kyle smiled at tonys ease and welcoming.

kyle was new to this town and had no one. it felt good to have made a friend in such a predicament. he moved here with his sister after his mom died and his dad was in the army. tonys father however was a drunck and would do any thing to get rid of his 'fag of a son'.

"welcome to broke back mountain" smiled tony. "i kinda live here so your welcome to stop by when ever you want"

they both laughed at this. kyle really enjoyed the way this guy was acting even thought he had just fallen into his lap out of a tree knocking him onconcious. kyle wanted more... but how this guy couldnt possibly want any thing to do with him like that.

A gental face peered at kyle from up a hill close by. he recognized it immidatly from the photos in his house and from the old one two. it was his great great grandfather who had been dead since before kyle was born. he was younger and sat with his arms arrownd his knees which were pulled to his chest it was Enis
