Jimmy & Richie - 4. Chapter 4

Driving home, I thought about what Gramps said. I remember how proud dad was when I took to football. For him, that was a man's game.

“Are you excited about working for Gramps?”

“Yes, I think that'll be great. I can earn some money to help me with my college expenses. Gramps said I could live in the apartment.”

“I haven't been in that apartment for years. But if I remember, it was a nice three room apartment. It'll be a quiet place for you to study."

The next morning, I met Mike as we walked to school. “How was your week-end?”

“It was good. I went with the folks to my grandparents. Gramps has a three-room apartment above his garage that's empty. He told me I could live there while I'm in school. And he's going to let me work at his company this summer. How about you?”

“The weekend went very well. Dad said after school is out we can drive down to Florida. I'll get the opportunity to check out FSU. I'll probably work at dad's store this summer. I'm going to miss you.”

Mike's dad owns a large electronic store. All the kids bought their electronic gadgets from him.

"I'm going to miss you also, Mike. This will be the first time in twelve years that we have been separated. We must stay in contact."

As I thought about Mike, I became a little depressed. I grew up with Mike. He was like a brother to me. We did everything together and even had special moments. I think Mike is the only one who ever saw me with an erection. He certainly was the first one I had a circle jerk with.

Arriving at school, we headed to our first class. I wouldn't see Mike again till lunch time. The morning seemed to fly past. When I walked into the lunch room, I saw Mike and Richie, they pulled me into the serving line. Richie was all smiles as if he had a secret to tell and couldn't wait.

Sitting down at out tables, “Guess what?”

Mike being the wise ass, “You're pregnant.” Richie reached over a swatted Mike on the side of his head.

“I applied to Ohio State and got accepted.” “Really, that was fast.”
