~ok first I would like to thank seddiever for being the 1st person to acknowledge this story so this face is to you :D . so making more chapters this one is about how Eric and Kenny became closer.~

summer break of sophomore year of high school

I hate my life. All my class mates have been asking me where iv been. All they want me is for me to go beat up some kid for them, not hangout. Stain and Kyle just think I'm avoiding them, but I really haven't, I have just been way to busy with work to play with them. While they get to go have crazy adventures I have to work. My life sucks!

The only person I ever get to hangout with is Kenny, and that's only because the little creeper lives so close to my bosses house, and the other day while I was getting ready to drop some stuff off at one of our best customer's house Kenny popped out of fucking no where and scared the shit out of me.

He started demanding I let him tag along. I hated that idea. My work can get a little crazy when the fucking druggies decide there not going to fucking pay me. Sometimes it will get so bad guns are used, and I refuse to let him get caught up in that shit. so to get him to back off I said something I knew would make him back off.

" GET YOUR POOR FAGOT ASS BACK TO YOUR SHITTY DUMP YOU CALL A HOUSE AND GET THE HELL OUT MY DAMN FACE!"

Kenny's the only person I try not to play the gay card with. Since Kenny's dad is a huge homophobe, and he abuses Kenny every chance he gets. Just to try and stop him from being gay. So far he hasn't done any real damage, Kenny's big brother Kevin will stand up to there father be for it goes to far, but Kenny has to put on a mask around others. He will spout some shit bout how hot some chick is or how huge her tits are but its all for show. Just to prove to his dad he's straight. I decided a long time ago that as soon as I can convince Kenny to just live at my house, without me looking like a total loser, his dad is done for. Kenny's the only person I can relax around. I know about his dad and he knows about my mom we understand each other in a way. We know what not to make fun of and we never cross that line. Until now that is.

Instead of leaving like I had planed he just stood there with a blank expression. After about 5 minutes of awkward. He cracked a smile and said " You don't honestly think I'm just going to let you work your self to death all by your self do you son of a crack whore." to say I was shocked would be a understatement. His words hurt and touched me at the same time but I couldn't really blame him. I figured he wasn't gong to leave no mater what I did so I would let him tag along for now.

The first time he went with me to work I had planed to do everything as safe as possible and make him stay out side. That is not what happened. He proved him self to be a lot more use full than I thought. He was a lot better with the map than I was and so I made him in charge of directions and in some of the more extreme cases when I got hurt he would drive me back home to take care of my wounds.

Truthfully I loved having Kenny around. He made me feel less lonely. He even started sleeping at my house...In my bed. It was a bitter sweet friendship.

...

Today is a boring day. I showed up at work only to be kicked out there was no orders today. I started walking back home when Kenny did that thing where he comes out of nowhere and suggested that we hang out with the guys, but to be honest I didn't really feel like dealing with people today. So me and Kenny went to starks pond to just chill. We weren't really talking just relaxing in each others company when some snobby lady and her little dog came running by, gave us a "I'm so much better that you fags" look, Kenny was just about to start some shit when all of a sudden a squirrel ran down a tree right in front of the dog and into the bushes. The little dog got so excited he ran in front of the lady to chase the squirrel, this made the leash rap around the lady's feet. Splash. The lady feel face first into the pond.

A gentleman would have got up and helped the lady out of the pond. To bad for her we were not gentlemen. We both burst out laughing so hard Kenny fell to his knees. The lady herd us and quickly scurried out of the pond. She came right up to Kenny got in his face and said "THIS IS YOUR FALT ISNT IT!" "What! you cant blame me for your dumbass dog." she looked like she was going to kill Kenny. In order to make her go away I whistled for the dog and sure enough it came running I picked it up and said with the cold voice I save for work "if you care at all for this mutt you better take it and leave." Thankfully she did and rather quickly at that.

I turned back to Kenny to help him up but stopped when I saw a unreadable look in his eyes but it was gone as soon as I saw it. He beamed up at me with his big blue eyes and said "thank you Eric." The fact that he used my first name made it that much more special. So much so that it made me blush a little bit so before he could see it I turned to walk away but was stopped when something came crashing in to my back.

Kenny had jumped on my back holding himself up with his arms around my neck and his legs around my waste. As an automatic reaction I shot my arms back to make sure he didn't fall on his ass and got hurt. Well I got 2 handfuls of a very nice ass.

Kenny jumped at the unintentional grope. I froze realizing just what has happened. Then the bitch started laughing like it was the funniest thing in the world. Now when I get embarrassed I get angry, and Kenny knew this all to well. " get the FUCK off me. NOW!." "wow man just chill I'm really tiered and my legs hut like hell from all this walking we been doing lately. Pls Eric carry me home." If it was anyone else I would have dropped there ass on the ground but it wasn't anyone else it was Kenny. So I started walking the long walk back home. After all Kenny didn't weigh near enough to cause me any problems, and he was just the right size to carry comfortably.

By the time I got back home Kenny was asleep. So I carried him in the house and upstairs to my bed and started to lay him down when I realized my hands were still on his ass, but what really surprised me is that he didn't say anything about it. In my shock I kind of just dropped him on the bed. The bounce scared him awake and he grabbed my shirt collar, pulled me onto the bed and snuggled into my chest. When I asked him what he thought he was doing using me as a teddy bear he mumbled something that made me freeze. "I love you Eric."

I was shocked, when I went to ask him to repeat him self he was already fast asleep.
