Hey
First of all I would like to tell you all who I am. My name is Jamie and I'm a senior in HS. Since this winter break my life has greatly changed. See, I was never was attracted to boys in any way. I had multiple girlfriends, but I had never truly loved none of them. I didn't know what love was really about. Until I met Brian, I was blind. He opened up my eyes and showed me the meaning of love. I don't know if I'm a boylover or not but I know that I really love Brian, and that he'll always be my best friend. There is our story.
It was a cold winter day, as cold as they get in Utah. It was even too cold to go snowboarding, besides we were already tired of that. Me and my cousin Eddy(I was staying at his parents house)have already snowboarded for four days in the row. It was time to catch a break. We sat at home for most of the day, and at the evening we went to the health club by Eddy's house. We played some basketball for a while and I was just destroying him. Well Eddy is younger than me and much shorter than me. After a couple of games Eddy got tired of losing so he came up with the idea to go swimming. So there we went.
I got in and swam a couple of lanes and then stopped to look around. And there I saw HIM. He was by himself playing water basketball. I don't know why I kept staring at him, but I guess I did for a while, because he has noticed it. He looked at me, and I quickly looked away. I swam another couple of lines, and looked at him again. When he looked back he yelled:"So are you just gonna keep starring at me playing or you gonna come and join?" I was shocked that he wasn't shy of me. So I went there and raised my hand to him. "I'm Jamie, what is your name?", he shook my hand and said "Brian, I see you're pretty fly swimmer, I wish I could swim like that." "No problem, I could teach you", I replied. "Nah", was the answer. "Why not?", I asked. "When I was little I fell into the pool and almost drowned myself and now I'm scared of the deep water", he answered quietly. I told him I understood, but also convinced him that I would keep him safe and we would try on the shallow end before going deep. After a while of arguing he finally agreed. So just like during the swimming lessons at the pool that I work(I'm a lifeguard) I slowly walked him through the steps. He was a quick learner and as soon as he learned how to float his fear suddenly left. He had some problems with moving his arms and legs together at the same time, but that only comes with time. After around 2 hours of practicing I asked him "Ready to go deep slugger?" He wasn't sure but I told him that I would be with him the whole time and he would be safe. Slowly he moved towards the deep end. I was swimming right by him the whole time. At first he was doing real well but as he got to the middle of the pool, he freaked out. I noticed it right away and quickly put a front hold on him and started cross-carry him to the side. As we were going he was laughing and said he did it on purpose. I knew that was a lie, but didn't tell him. He asked me to cross-carry him around the pool some more and he didn't have to ask me twice. I started to love to have his cute little body safe in my arms and I loved the fact that he trusted me so much.
Then we started heading home. As he was leaving he said "Thanx for teaching me how to swim, I'll see ya here tomorrow and we'll practice some more, all right?", "All right Brian I'll be here", I answered and I knew that me and my cousin would miss another day of snowboarding...........
