Farmacist

Chapter 2

Max Franklin



"So Will you want a pop tart." I ask him as I pick up a box.

"I am still pretty full. But later for sure." He says grinning.

I open the fridge and Mickey seems to have done a really good job. He got
fruit and vegetables I see. I should have thought of that. Will is a boy
and needs things like that. Glad Mickey was thinking. I grab my cellphone
and dial Mickey. He answers on the second ring.

"Yeah boss?"

I groan because he called me boss.

"Mickey you did good. You did really good with the groceries. Thank you."
I do give credit where it is due. But I am usually pretty much a dick. I
don't thank people very often.

"Did the kid see the pop tarts?"
"His name is Will and yes he did."
"He seems like a good kid Deke."
"Yeah he really does. I like him, and his name is Will.".
"Hey look I'm really sorry I said you could sell him. I know you don't go
for that shit. I wasn't thinking."
"You fucking pissed me off when you said that shit. But, I also know I'm
not the easiest guy to work for either. Here is my idea Mickey. She knows
the heat is on her right now. Take a break for a few days make her think
we aren't looking. She will slip up then, not thinking. Junkies always
do. Then you snag her."

"I was thinking Deke you know that one spot down by the piers. You know
the one I'm talking about."
"Yeah I know the spot."
"You know that guy right?"
"Yeah I know who you are talking about."
"Shes got a thing for him. I was thinking she wont stay away from him too
long. I bet she will be there pretty soon."
"You think shes that stupid?"

"Shes choosing junk over that kid. Yeah shes that dumb."
"I tell you what we will do. You get her and bring her to me of course.
When you do I will give you whatever she has left of the shit. Also his
name is Will."
"Deke that could be a lot."
"Or it could be nothing. Its a gamble but, Mickey you have always been
really loyal to me. I owe you for that. But I swear if you ever steer me
wrong again...."

"I wont Deke. We been together too long for that."

"Since we were kids."
Will is watching me and he pulls at my shirt.

"Wait a minute Mickey."
"Tell Mickey thanks for the pop tarts."

I smile at him and pull him into me for a hug. Seeing as how I'm standing
his head goes next to my belly and he wraps his arms around my waist and
hugs me back. It feels really nice. Not as in I want to fuck him nice.
But as in its just nice.

"Will says thank you for the pop tarts."
Mickey laughs.

"I had to go to three fucking stores to find blueberry. But I like the
kid."
"I like Will too. You give your idea a shot. You know this bitch better
than I do. I hope it pans out for you. Bring her here when you find her."
"You know I will."
"I'm gonna let you go. Will and I got some serious plans to take care of
now. I'll see you later."
"Hey Deke."
"Yeah?"
"I really thought she was good for it man. I really did."
"I know and I trust your judgment is why I fronted her that much shit
this time. She was always good with 50k. I guess she got greedy this
time."
"It happens. Later."
I end the call.

"Why don't you go put on some of your new clothes. I need to get a hair
cut and some ice cream."

After I said ice cream he was gone like a shot. I follow him up I figure
he will need help removing tags and lacing shoes and whatnot.

I get to his room and he is on the bed pulling off his old shoes. Which
are going in the trash very soon. I grab a bag and ask him.

"You want shorts or jeans?"
"I don't know I'm kind of excited and want to wear them all." He says
smiling.

"I understand where you are coming from." I will dump the bag and what
lands on top is what you wear. Cool?"
"Cool."
I pour it on the bed and a pair of shorts land on the top.

"Looks like shorts and a tee Will."
"Cool." He says grinning and stripping off the old shirt he has on.

I admire his smooth chest. The dime sized dark brown nipples. I turn
before he notices me staring. That and my cock is starting to swell. I
pull the stickers off the shorts and set them next to me. I get a cool
ass tee that matches it and I pull off the tags and stickers. I feel him
next to me and I look over at him and he is naked watching me. I look
down and see what makes him a boy. I sigh as I see it and want it. He
doesn't seem to mind me looking. I wont touch him though. I told him its
his body and he has control over it. I wont break that word to him. But
looking at it I want to just suck him into my mouth and suck him until he
hits his bliss. But, I wont because I would lose his respect and for some
reason I really care about having his respect. I finish and I grab the
socks next as they are next in the pile. Will hops up on the bed right
next to me and he lifts his foot and slips on a sock. I am really trying
not to stare at his boy bits. I take out a pair of undies and set them
next to him hoping he will put them on. He slips on his other sock and
looks at the underwear and picks them up.

"I like these I think they look so cool compared to the white ones I
had."

"They are pretty cool looking."
"They are like yours. I liked the way yours looked this morning when I
saw them. Deke do you think I got a big pecker?" He asks and grabs it
between his fingers and thumb.

"If you were 30 I would say no. But at your age I would say most
assuredly you got a big pecker. How old are you anyway. I never thought
to ask."
"I'm 9 I will be 10 next month on June 14th."
"Well we are going to have to have a party or something then wont we."
"You mean I am still going to be here then?" He asks his eyes wide with
excitement.

"If I have my way. And Will I get my way most of the time."
He giggles and wraps his arms around my neck and hugs me. I wrap my arms
around his velvety smooth body and hug him to me. I cup his soft little
ass and my poor cock is about to erupt. I pat his ass and set him back up
on the bed.

"I don't know who we could invite other than Mickey and his wife. All the
other people I know are scum bags I wouldn't want near you. Maybe Mickey
can bring his nephews or something. We will figure it out."
"I like Mickey. Even though he kind of kidnapped me. He was real nice to
me."

I am watching and he is fondling his boy bits and they get hard as he is.
I don't think he realized he is doing it. But, I sure as Hell noticed. I
am on my knees next to the bed and I lean back and sit on the floor and
grab a pair of the tennis shoes we got for him. He picked out this pair
so I know he really likes them. They are pretty cool. They are black and
on the side with big red letters it reads AIR. On the inside it reads AIR
in blue. They were $130 but what the fuck do I care. He wanted them and I
want to get him things. I know it wont make up for his shitty life. I
know that more than most. But its nice to have things you want. Gives you
a sense of pride. I start lacing up the little size 4 shoes and he is
just watching fondling himself.
"Those are the coolest shoes ever." H grins as he tells me this.

"They are pretty fucking awesome for sure. So are you going to wear just
them or some clothes too?"
He laughs at the thought.

"Yeah they wouldn't know what to think at the barber shop when you get
your hair cut. But I would be embarrassed being naked."
"You got nothing to be embarrassed about. You are a good looking boy with
a big pecker. I bet most boys wish they had one as big as yours."

"You think?"
"I know when I was your age mine wasn't half as big as yours."
"Yeah but yours is huge now."
"Its hardly huge. Its normal I guess for a man."

"Do you think mine will be as big as yours when I get to be a man?"
"From comparing what size I was when I was your age to what size you are
now. I'm going to think its going to be bigger."
"Cool."
"Now get dressed."I say as I finish lacing his shoes. He slips on the
bikini briefs and his cock is bulging out and looks very nice to me. I
hand him his shorts and he slips them on. He grabs the t-shirt and slips
it over his head. He sits on the floor in front of me and I help him put
on his shoes and we get the laces the right tightness.

"You look real nice Will."
He stands up and twirls around.

"You think so?"
"Yeah you look good."

He grins and wraps his arms around my neck again hugging me. I hug him
back.

"Whats this for?"
"Just saying thank you for getting me all the cool stuff."
"I liked getting you things. It was fun for me too. but, you don't owe me
anything for it. Not even a hug."

He kisses me on the lips for the second time now and the energy I felt
course through my body was intense.

"Thank you buddy. Now lets go get a hair cut."

He dances out of his room and at the top of the stairs he grabs my hand
as we go down. We head to the basement and I open the door to the garage
there.
"How many cars you got?" He says looking at my Lincoln MKZ.
"I don't know a dozen or so."
"Why you got so many cars?"
"People kind of give them to me. But this one I bought. I liked it so I
got it."
We climb in and he looks around it and feels the seats.

"Its real nice."
"Thank you. I like it too."
"When I get big I'm going to sell stuff like you do."
"Oh no you are going to college and living a better life."
"Looks like you got a pretty good life to me."
"Its a dangerous life. Better to be educated and take money from guys
like me to keep us out of prison."
"Maybe."
"No maybe too it." I open the garage and drive up the drive. Its not a
harsh incline but I wouldn't want to do it with snow. Why people deal
with that shit is beyond me. So many great places to live that don't have
it.

On the way to the barber shop we chat about just nothing in particular.
What he likes to watch on TV. Apparently he used to like this one show
when they had cable and he was laughing the whole time he was talking
about it. I guess we will have to watch that one.

We walk in and there is no one there. Its why I like to show up at this
time of day. I don't want or like to wait.
"Just trim Wills hair he looks pretty good with it kind of long." I tell
the barber. The other barber gestures to his chair so I sit down and he
just cuts it like normal. I'm not a chatty person and the barber knows
this so he just cuts my hair. I think since Will came into my life less
then 24 hours ago I have said more than I have in a month. I like talking
to him. I like him talking to me. I just like him. When we get done I
have the barbers wash our hair because I cant stand hair on my collar. Or
worse in my shirt. We head back out to the car and I drive to the ice
cream store.

"We got ice cream at the house. I saw that Mickey bought some."
"So? Sometimes its fun to just go out and get ice cream."
"So long as I get ice cream I don't care where I get it." he says
grinning with a giggle.

"I hear ya."

We walk in and he starts looking.

"They got like a gajillion flavors in here."
"A gajillion huh?"
"Yeah." his little head nodding slowly as he looks at the flavors.

"I don't even know half of these."
"Why don't I get my favorite and you see if you like it and if so you can
get some of it?" I suggest.

"OK."
I get the kids attention behind the counter.

"A scoop of rocky road in a cup."
The kids gets it and I give Will a taste. His eyes light up.

"Make that two."
The kid is back in a jiffy and I pay the kid and we sit at a table and
enjoy our treat. I even flip a five in his tip cup. Why not I'm in a
great mood and the kid did give us fast service.

We sit and enjoy the wonderful mixture of chocolate ice cream nuts and
marshmallow in silence. I love watching him eat. He is always so happy
doing it. I like how when hums softly and dances on his butt int he
chair. He is a great boy this Will is. Once we are done we get in the car
and head back to the house and when we get there I pull into the garage
and park. We get out and I look at him and smile as he grabs my hand as
we head to the main floor. I keep walking back to his room and I grab one
of the multiple bags from Target with the toys in it. I find the remote
control cars and we open them up. Fuck all the damn twist ties holding
them in. After what feels like days we get them unpacked and I load in
some fresh batteries. I snatch him up and hold him in one arm. He is
holding a car in one hand pressed against my chest and I have an arm
under his butt and the other hand holding the other car. We head outside
and we start racing them around the driveway. They fly on the black top I
race my car directly at his and smash into it. I'm laughing my ass off.

"Hey that's not nice." He cries out laughing.

"Yeah you are probably right. I shouldn't do that to your things. I don't
want to ruin your toys."
"You bought em."
"Yes but they aren't mine. I should have more respect for your things."
"Why no one else ever does?"
"Because for one I like and respect you. For two because its the right
way to be. I want to treat you the way you should be treated. Not the way
you have been treated. You should expect people to show you respect. Not
the other way around."
He thinks for a minute about that and starts racing his car around again
after he sits it back on its wheels.

We play about ten minutes him an I laughing and having a great time.
Racing is fun. Maybe I should get us some of the really fast gas powered
ones? Maybe in the future but these are fine for now I'm thinking when he
interrupts my thoughts.

"Deke can I go to school tomorrow?"

"Do you want to?"
"Yeah I don't want to be stupid. That and you said I'm gonna go to
college and you cant be stupid there."
I stop my car and look at him.

"First you aren't stupid. Stupid means you cant learn. What you are is
ignorant on a lot of things. Which means you don't know about them. Even
the smartest people in the world are ignorant about more than they are
knowledgeable on. So I never want to hear you say your stupid again. Or I
will take away your toys for a few days. Also you can go to school. I
will take you in the morning or do you want Mickey to?"

"You."
"Alright then. I suppose we need to get you to bed at a decent hour then
tonight. I think nine or so is good."
"Nine?" He half whines.

"Yes nine. I'm new at this shit and I want to do the best I can for you.
I think nine will give you plenty of rest for school. What time do you
have to be there?"
"8:15."
"Yeah I think nine is good then. Get up around 6:30 or so and then get
dressed and breakfast and then get you to school. What time are you
done?"

"Three."
"Alright then that's what we will do."
He grins.

We play with the cars until they start getting sluggish from the
batteries wearing down. We pick them up and he takes the to his room and
I open the fridge and see that Mickey got some nice New York strips and
some porter house steaks. I decide the porter house tonight. I start the
broiler on the oven and put a couple potatoes in the nuker box to cook.
He comes back down smiling and happy.

"I'm making us some steaks for supper. Hows that sound?"
"Never had steaks before. But I bet they are good."
"They certainly are. So I got potatoes in the microwave what vegetable do
you want?"
"Green beans?" He asks hope in his voice.

"Green beans it is then. I take it you like them?"
He grins.

"They are my favorite."
"Good I like them too."
I make the steaks and make them medium. Its how I like mine and I think
the best way to eat them. I know they say rare. but, I don't like blood
all over my plate. Its gross to me. I put out butter and sour cream for
our baked potatoes. We eat and he seems to really enjoy it a lot. When we
get done its 7. I look at him.

"So did you like it?"
"Yeah a lot. I like that stuff you put on it."
"Worcestershire sauce."
"Yeah that." A grin on his face as he replies.

"Alright lets get you a bath or shower your choice and then we can watch
some TV and then you go to bed."
"Can I use your big tub again? I liked the jet things."
"Of course you can. You want bubbles tonight?"
He giggles.

"So yes then?"
"Please."

He helps me clean the dinner dishes and put them in the dishwasher. I
look at him and say.

"Race you upstairs." As I do I push him backwards and take off.

By the time I am to the stairs I am laughing so hard I can hardly climb
them. The little shit races past me laughing his ass off. I get to the
bathroom and he has his hands in the air jumping around.

"I wn!! I win!!!!"

"Ya cheated." I tell him.

He giggles.

"You pushed me. How did I cheat?"
"I don't know. But I will figure out something." I reply still laughing.

I walk over to the tub and turn it on. I get it right this time when he
feels the water. He strips quickly and I put his clothes in the washer.
I'm not going to do them yet. But, they will be ready when I do. I put in
some soap flakes but not as many because last night with the jets on
there was a mountain of bubbles. He slips in the tub.

"Deke will you stay and talk to me tonight?"
"Sure Will. Whatever you want." I mean it to whatever he wants.

I sit on the steps that lead to the tub.

"Deke I had so much fun today."
"I did too."
"You aren't just saying that?"
"No I mean it. I don't remember the last time I had so much fun."
"Deke I like being with you. You...... I don't know how to put it in
words what I'm feeling. But you get me. Its like you know what would make
me happy."
"Will its because I was you a long time ago. I am just doing for you what
I wish had happened in my life. Just someone that gives a fuck about me
and not because they want something from me."

"You do though don't you?"

My heart is racing because he knows I do want something from him.

"What do you mean?"
"You do give a fuck about me." He says whispering the fuck part.

"Yes I do."
"You are the only one." A rather glum looking boy says to me.

"But, that's one now. How many more will follow?" I ask him.

"I don't know. Maybe none."
"That could be true. But you are so much fun I bet that soon you have
tons of people that care about you."
He grins at that and dunks under the water.

He comes up spitting water out of his mouth like a fountain making me
laugh. I swear he is making me feel like a kid again. Not that I really
ever had a chance to be one. But I know this is what most people
experience when there mom isn't a junkie hooker.

He giggles when he gets done then gets this cute expression on his face.
"Deke will you wash my hair again. I liked it when you rubbed my head it
felt real nice."
"I would be glad too."

I grab the shampoo and since I know he likes it. I really take my time
rubbing his head. His eyes are closed as he enjoys me massaging his
scalp. I hand him the wash cloth and he covers his eyes and we rinse and
repeat. I enjoy touching him and knowing he is enjoying it. Even though
in my head I know its not sexual my cock thinks otherwise. It is hard and
throbbing and I hate it right now. I just want to enjoy the moment with
him. After we rinse again I do the conditioner. Once we get done he
stands up and washes his body. I am surprised his cock is hard. But not
really he is relaxed and it does that when you get relaxed. He washes
himself and I enjoy the show. Once he was done he held out his arms to
me. I lift him out of the tub and wrap a towel around him. I flip the
switch to release the water.

I take him over and set him on the counter as I did last night and comb
his hair for him. I like doing this for him. Its just nice is all.

"I didnt think about it last night Will but i have a new tooth brush you
can have. I say and open the drawer and pull it out. I unwrap it and hand
it to him. I slip him off the counter and he proceeds to brush his pearly
whites. Its fun to watch him because as he scrubs his entire little body
shakes under the towel.

"I just thought of something else. I didn't think to get you anything to
sleep in. I guess shorts would be good. I will get you some sleeping
pants tomorrow."
"I kind of like wearing your shirt. It was loose and comfy."
"I bet it was almost like sleeping naked."
He grins.

"Yeah almost."
"So do you want me to get you something to sleep in then?"
"You got lots of t-shirts. So no."
I just shrug and smile at this. Once he is done rinsing his mouth out I
dry him off really good and he follows me to my closet and I hand him a
tee. He slips it over his cute little body and grins.

"Lets my boys hang free."Giggling as he says it.

I laugh. He is so fucking funny.

"Your boys huh?"
"Yep my boys." He grabs his cock to emphasize his point.

"You crack me up Will."
"We got about an hour and a half before your bed time. You want to watch
a movie?"
"Shoot yeah on your big TV it will be like we are at a movie theater. At
least I think it would be. Never been before."
"Well you are in for a real treat then."
"How?"
"You will see."I say and pick him up and carry him to the basement to my
media room.

I put him down and he is running all over it between the rows of seats.

"Deke this is like a movie theater in your house. This is so freaking
cool!!!" He shouts still running around. I laugh at his excitement. Its
so freaking cool seeing him this excited. Its what I wanted to do when I
got it five years ago. It takes him a few minutes but he finally calms
down and flops on my lap.

"Deke you haven't been smoking much. Just like a few today."
He says as I light one.

"I don't smoke in my cars. And I guess being around you calms me down and
I don't want to as much."
"Yeah but last night you smoked a lot."

"Does the smoke bother you?" I ask about to snuff it out.

"No I just noticed is all. You know its bad for you right."
I think about being a smart ass but decide against it. Saying no shit I
thought it had vitamin C in it.

"Yeah I know its bad." Is my response.

I turn on Disney channel and he gasps

"This is that show I was telling you about. Can we watch it please?"
"Yeah we are going to watch it. You said its real funny and the way you
described it I want to watch it too."
"Cool." He says as he snuggles his little but into me. I wrap my arm
around him and he leans against my chest. He rubs his fingertips over my
arm and its just really nice. I gently rub his chest through his shirt. I
guess its my shirt. But I don't give a shit. Its a nice time we are
having. After the first episode he looks up at me.

"Did you like it?"
"Did you hear me laughing?"
He grins and we settle in for another episode. Then another. Its saying
they are going to show another one.

"Time for bed." I tell him.

"Can we watch another one please?" He pleads.

"No sir. We have to get you educated and watching this show wont do that.
But I will record all the episodes so we can watch them later."
I can tell he really wants to watch it and I really want to let him. But
I also know that responsible people do the responsible thing. Not that I
have a lot of experience at that. But, I want to do whats best for him
and I know a good nights sleep before school is the right thing to do.

"OK." He agrees.

We climb up the two flights of stairs together

"Do you want to try to sleep in your room tonight?"
"No. I like being close to you. I feel safe when I'm with you."
"OK."
When we get to my room. Our room? I tuck him in on the side he was on
last night. Well started on last night.

"Deke will you lay with me until I get to sleep please?"

"Sure buddy." I start to get in with jeans and a shirt on.

"No like last night so you are comfortable."
"Alright."
I slip off my shirt and jeans even my socks and slip into bed. He slides
over and wraps his arm over my chest.
"I like this Deke."
"I do too Will."
He doesn't say anything for a few minutes and I think he is going to
sleep.

"Deke?"
"Yeah buddy?"

"You like me don't you?"

"Of course I like you Will. Whats not to like?"
"No that's not what I meant. I mean you LIKE me like me. Like you want to
do sex stuff with me."

"I wouldn't do that Will."
"But you do want to though?"
I sigh at this.

"Yes I do. I'm sorry but I really do."
He doesn't say anything for a while he just runs his fingers through my
chest hair.

"I know you could if you wanted to do it. Your lots bigger then me."
"Yes I could. But, I would ever force you to do anything like that. It
would be wrong of me. I want you to respect me. I don't know why that's
so important to me. If I forced you to do that you would hate me for it.
I don't want that at all."

"I do respect you for it. I know lots of guys wouldn't care what I
thought and just make me do whatever like that cop. He is supposed to be
a good guy we can trust and your supposed to be a bad guy we aren't
supposed to trust. I'm confused is all."

"You will learn that people are people. Some are good and some are bad.
Some are bad that are supposed to be good. Like that cop."
"But you say your not a good person. I think you are."
"Will I'm a mean person. Trust me when I say that. You just haven't seen
it yet."
"Will you be mean to me?"
"Never."Is my instant reply.

"My mom?"
"Yes I am going to be very mean to your mom."
He circles his finger around my nipple a few times then lays his hand
flat on my chest.

"Good."

That's the last thing he said before he goes to sleep. I'm laying there
thinking about our day together. He is a very smart boy for sure. Also
very observant. Hell I didn't even realize I hadn't smoked but half a
pack that day. I don't ever remember smoking just half a pack. As I'm
thinking about it I fall asleep.

I wake up startled thinking of the men who raped me as a boy. I feel a
hand on my raging hard cock and in his sleep Will has his hand on it. I
gently move it off and climb out of bed. I look at my phone and its
almost 4 am. I feel really good. I haven't slept this long as long as I
can remember. I feel very rested and very horny. I slip out of bed and I
see the shirt is raised up on Will and showing his lovely soft cock. I
cover him back up and slip into my bathroom and close the door and turn
on my shower. I strip off my underwear and step in. I immediately soap up
my cock and slowly start stroking it thinking of Will and his beautiful
body and lovely cock. I imagine his ruby red lips wrapped around my cock
and that's all it takes and I cum so hard my legs are shaking and I have
to sit on the floor of the shower because I'm afraid I will fall if I
don't. I feel the water beating down on my body as I slowly recover from
the best orgasm I have had in my life. It has to have been a good ten
minutes until I feel like I can stand up again and not fall. I wash and
think about how intense my cum was. I shake my head not believing how
intense it was. I have had sex but honestly not a lot. The people that
offer themselves to me are not people I would want to fuck. God only
knows what I would get from them. Not to mention I find so few of them
remotely attractive. The last time I had sex was with a college student I
met in a bar. We went back to his apartment and we had some great sex. He
wanted to meet again. But in my line of work you don't allow many people
close to you because they can be used against you. After I get washed I
let the water beat down on me and think about Will and the short time we
have had together so far. I don't want it to end. I wont let it end. I
will do whatever it takes to keep him. I don't know if I love him because
honestly I don't know what that is. I have never experienced it. But
maybe I do love him. Its all so confusing. At least both of us are
confused I think and smile. Thankfully I have a tank-less hot water
system or I know I would have long ago ran out of hot water. I get out
and I dry off and head to my closet to get some clean clothes to wear. I
get on some jeans and a polo today and slip on some socks and grab a pair
of tennis shoes. I have at least 40 pairs of them. I just see them and
like them and get them. I guess it has to do with my childhood never
having anything. Now I can have nearly anything so I get it. I go and try
not to make any noise and grab my clothes from yesterday. I take them to
the washer and grab out the cash and wallet from them and slip them in my
clean pants pockets. I head down to the kitchen and I see its 5:15. How
long was I in the fucking shower for?"
Obviously a long damn time. I open the fridge to see what sounds like a
good idea for breakfast. I make a choice for us and wait until its time
for him to get up to start cooking it. I do shred some potatoes for hash
browns and put them in a bit of water and put them in the fridge. I make
some coffee and grab a cigarette ad screw it in my lips and light it. I
take a deep drag and walk into the living room and sit down and turn on
the TV. I have no idea what I was watching because I am only thinking of
the sleeping boy upstairs.

At 6:15 I just cant stand it anymore. I have to go wake him up. I go
upstairs to my room and slip on the bed next to him. I gently start
running my fingers through the hair that's covering his forehead.

"Will its time to get up for school." I say softly.

He mumbles something I cant understand.

"Come on Will time to get up and face the day."
Where am I coming up with this shit. I have never heard anyone say this
to me. Nor have I ever said it. But I don't care.

I bend down and kiss his cheek softly and whisper in his ear.

"Time to get up and get ready for school. I'm making a super nice
breakfast to start your day off right."

I see a smile on his face as his eyes flicker open.

He looks at me and his smile turns to a grin.

"Good morning Deke."
"Good morning Will. You ready to go get some breakfast and go to school
and learn some shit?"

He giggles and scampers out of bed and races to the bathroom.

"I will meet you in the kitchen." I say after him.

He looks over his shoulder at me and smiles.

"Cool."
I go downstairs and start frying to potatoes. I learned how to cook just
about anything when I was a kid. Because when you steal to eat you don't
care what you get so long as its good and fills you up. Potatoes were a
favorite thing to steal because they fill you up. I learned at about 9 or
so that if you bury a potato it makes more potatoes. After a couple years
I had a back yard of potatoes and other vegetables like tomatoes,
cucumbers, squash shit like that. I would steal seed packs. I learned I
had a green thumb and I liked to grow things. It was always cool to me. I
still have a garden. A big one at that. I like the fresh veggies. I get
them going pretty good and he shows up dressed and looking so cute. His
hair whetted down and combed. He has a comb in his hand.

"Deke comb my hair you make it look better."
I put down the spatula and comb his hair. It does look a little nicer but
not by much. I just like that he asked me to do it for him. I put the
comb on the counter. He picks it up and races it back to where it
belongs. I smile thinking that's a good boy him doing that. I start
another skillet on medium heat and put in some olive oil. I grab two of
the New York strips and drop them in. Smelling them and hearing the
searing gets my tummy excited. I finish up the potatoes and put some on
his plate and one for me I have next to the stove top. He is back and
sidles up against me looking at what I am making.

"That smells so good."
"Better than pop tarts?"
He laughs his incredible laugh.

"Yep better than pop tarts for sure."
"I am glad you agree. Why don't you get some glasses for us and get out
the orange juice?"
He smiles at my request and does it smiling the entire time. He carefully
pours us both a glass and put them where we sit at the breakfast bar. I
put a bit ore oil in the pan I had the hash browns in and crack four eggs
in it. I flip the steaks and they look really nice. Not a lot of fat. But
just enough so they aren't dry. I flip the eggs when they are ready and
then go to the fridge and pull out ketchup, hot sauce and some
Worcestershire sauce because he said he enjoyed that. I set it on the bar
and then turn around and pull the eggs out and put them on our plates. I
slice the steak to see if its the way we like it and its really close. I
give it another two minutes and put them on the plates then put them in
our spots. He looks at it and grins.

"I never ate so good in all my life."

"You will never be hungry again if I can help it."
He looks at me with a serious look.

"I know. Thank you."
I cant help it I reach over and kiss his cheek.

"Now eat we got to get going in about half an hour."
He grabs the steak sauce and pours it on pretty heavy. I guess he does
like it. I put ketchup on my hash browns and hot sauce on my eggs. He
puts ketchup on his browns and doesn't put hot sauce on his eggs. I
noticed last night he is eating a bit slower. Taking his time and
enjoying it. Knowing more is there when he wants it. That makes me very
happy him knowing that. When we get done eating we go to the living room
and watch a few cartoons until its time to go. I walk out to the barn him
next to me and he grabs my hand. I hope that he never stops doing that.
It still is sending shock waves through my body. I open the door and flip
on the switch and he sees it has about six cars in it, and a pick up
truck.

"Deke you really do have a lot of cars."
I shrug.

"People give them to me."

"You could sell some of them and help some people."
"Why no one helped me. They didn't help you either."

"Sometimes you do the right thing cuz its right. Not cuz someone did
something for you."

"Hmph."

I open the door to the Cadillac CT-6 for him. He gets in and I walk
around and get in. I hit the ignition button and it roars to life. I hit
the door button and the garage door on the barn opens and off we go.

He is looking at the car in awe. Its just that kind of a car. The most
luxurious car that Cadillac has ever made. They really did out do
themselves with this one. Good thing for me the local dealer has a
problem. I have the windows tinted as dark as can be. I push a button and
some Snoop Dogg comes on. Apparently I was in a Snoop mood last time I
was in the car. Seeing as how its on the Snoop channel. All Snoop all the
time. He starts bobbing his head apparently liking it. I turn it up a
bit. He sees what I do and he pushes the volume higher. I just smile at
him and he smiles back. Now of course this is not the radio versions.
This is Snoop uncensored. He looks at me a couple times and I can see him
giggle. When we pull up to the school about 25 minutes later the old song
Drop it Like its Hot is on. Now we are bumping pretty hard and loud now.
We draw a few looks OK a lot of looks from the kids in waiting outside. I
mute it a second. Reach in my pocket and pull out a $20 bill.

"Heres for lunch Will."
"Its like $4."
"So save the rest. Have a good day. I will be right here at 3 to get
you."
He leans over and kisses my cheek.

"Have a good day Deke."
"Don't take shit off of anybody."

He grins at me and when he gets out I flip stations to Notorious B.I.G.
Hypnotize is just starting one of my favorite by him. I kick up the
volume to as high as it will go. Will looks back at me and smiles. I wave
at him and hold up three fingers. He nods.

I take off fast the engine roaring and I see him giggle. I cruise through
town looking at the slums. I drive by the shitty house my mom and I used
to live in. I stop in front of it and look. Juicy comes on and I start
singing with Biggie. For all the teachers that said I wouldn't amount to
shit. Yeah fuck them fuckers I add. I look at the house and no good
memories come to mind. Just memories of hunger and pain. Then I think of
the guy that gave me Wendys. I sigh and head to one of my safe houses. I
park in the garage and walk up the stairs to the apartment I have there.
Its only one apartment above a garage. I walk in and go to the safe. I
pull out a stack of hundreds. I slip the packet in a plastic bag and
think fuck it and grab another stack and toss it in as well. I walk back
down locking the door as I leave. I get in my car and head home. When I
get there I toss the bag in the glove box and go in the house. I look at
my phone 9:30. Hm five and a half hours until I can pick him up. I go
into my office and see the mess I made. Glass is everywhere. I cant have
this with Will here. What if he walks in here and gets hurt. I sigh and
go out to the back of the house and grab a trash can. I grab a broom and
dust pan on the way back in. It takes me about three hours to clean up
the mess. I drag the old desk out to the barn and put it in there. I
really don't know what else to do with it. I walk back in and drag the
trash can out to the street. Its on wheels so it wasn't too bad. I grab
the rest of the cans and take them out as well. Tomorrow is trash day I
may as well take it now. I walk back into the office and get my laptop
that was tossed with the desk. I open it and the screen is shattered.

"Fuck."

I look at my phone I got about 2 hours to get Will. I go to my bedroom
and swing back the picture that hides my safe there. I put my thumb to it
and then hit the code and it opens. I grab half a stack thinking that
should do it. I close it and put the picture back in place. I go to the
Caddy so he knows which car I am in. He doesn't know them all yet and I
want it to be easy for him to find me. I head to the apple store. I get
what I come after and walk out and put the package in the back seat and
head to the school I have 30 minutes and its about 20 minutes left. I
park where I dropped him. I don't have the radio on and I wait in silence
watching the minutes click by on the clock. I hear the bell ring and a
moment later the kids all start rushing out. I see Will walk out looking
over to where I dropped him and he sees me and smiles. He walks over and
I see a kid pat him on the back and he looks at him and smiles. He gets
in and I start the car. I smile at him and drive to a shelter I know
feeds families I look at him.

"This is your doing. Open the glove box and grab the bag."
He looks at me and does as I ask him. He is sitting there. I walk around
and open the door.

"This is your idea. Come on."
He gets out slowly and I walk in.

"Who is in charge here?" I ask some lady sitting at a shitty steel desk.

"Mr Wilson."
"I got something for him. Go get him."
"Hes busy right now can I help you?"
"I said go get him." I used my thug voice that people just don't say no
to.

"Umm OK."
She scurries off quickly. I hear her coming back talking.

"I don't know what he wants sir. He just well hes intimidating sir. He
demanded to see you."
I see this man come out. He looks familiar. But I cant place him. I know
a lot of people and if I cant place him that's probably a good thing. For
all I know he was one of my moms johns.

"You're in charge here?" I say in a demanding voice.

"Yes. What can I do for you?"
"Will said I should help. Will give the man the bag."

Will does as I ask him. OK tell him. The man opens the bag and gasps and
pulls out the two stacks of hundreds.

"This is like twenty thousand dollars." He says looking at me shock on
his face.

Will looks equally stunned.

"Thank you sir."He says to me.

"Don't thank me it was Wills idea thank him."

"OK Thank you Will." He says reaching out his hand and Will shakes it.

"This best not disappear and I want it to feed families."
"You don't know how much this will help. It will last a couple months,
and feed a lot of families."
"Will lets go."
I say and turn on my heels.

"Do you want a receipt?"
I just laugh and Will takes my hand and we walk back to the car a couple
of thugs are by my car and they see its me and quickly disperse. I hit
the key fob and open the door for Will who still has a stunned look on
his face. He gets in and i walk around and get in and start the car and
sit the fob on the console.

Will looks at me with big eyes.

"Did you sell one of your cars?"

"No it was just some cash I had laying around doing nothing. I got to
thinking about what you said about helping people and I drove by my old
house and I thought of that fucking guy that used to bring me Wendys. I
thought he helped me. So I thought that maybe oyu were right and I should
help feed some people."

"If ida known I had all that money on me I woulda been scared."
"No one will bother you with me next to you. You saw them fuckers scatter
when they saw me right?"

"Yeah."
"You will see that a lot around me. Now lets go home I got you a
present."
"Deke giving them that money knowing that you helped feed so many people
is the best present I ever got." He says grinning and he takes my hand in
his while we are driving out of town.

We get back to the farm and Will hasn't said a word. He just looks out
the window and will look at me on occasion and smile then look back out
the window. We pull in the drive then I pull into the barn.

We get out and I grab the bags from the apple store and we walk in him
holding my hand and skipping along beside me. I look down at him and
smile. He makes me so happy. I don't understand his cunt of a mother. But
I used to be a pretty good kid too. Now I'm just a thug. We go in the
house and I sit the bag on the table in the kitchen.

"First things first. You want something to eat?"
"Yes please may I have a pop tart?"
"Buddy you can have anything you want. Let me grab you a pack and some
milk."
He grins at me.

I do as I said and he takes his perch on his bar stool and I sit next to
him I light a cigarette only about my sixth one today and breath in deep
and enjoy the feeling of the smoke going deep into my lungs. I exhale a
large plume of smoke into the air.

"Did you have a good day at school?"
He grins.

"Yes. Everyone was talking about how you dropped me off in a cool ass
car. Then they was talking about my new stuff. One kid said he was gonna
steal my shoes and another boy stopped him. He said you know who dropped
him off. The kid said he didn't give a crap. Well he said shit. But then
the other boy said it was Deke. The boy looked at me and I could see he
was scared. He started backing away and telling me he was sorry."
"Good I don't want anyone messing with you."
"One boy asked me how I know you. I told him you were my uncle is that
OK?"
I smile and nod my head as I take another drag from my cigarette. He
takes another bite of pop tart. Chases it with some milk.

"You got homework?"
"Yeah a little bit. I got multiplication tables I got to learn."

"OK I can help with that. I get up and go get some blank cards and start
making up multiplication cards for 7s as that's what he has to learn. I
mix them up and start showing them to him. He has them down pat in a few
minutes.

"You are a smart boy."
"Yes just ignorant on a lot of things like most everyone else."
I laugh at him.

"You are exactly right. But every day you are gaining more knowledge. So
that's a good thing."

He grins at the praise.

"Now go grab the bag from the Apple store and bring it to me."
He gets the bag and peers inside.

"You got me a computer?" His eyes huge and a look of shock on his face.
Now I got me a computer. I got him something else. But, I don't want to
tell him no. He is too excited for that.

"Yes I did and look what else is in the bag,"
"Cool an iPhone. That is so awesome thank you Deke." He says putting the
bag down carefully and runs and hops up on my lap and hugs me and kisses
me on the lips like four times in quick succession. I hug him back.
Enjoying the closeness of him.

He holds me tight for a good minute then kisses my cheek.

"Deke your the best."
"Would you think that if I didn't buy you anything?"
"Yes because you feed me real good too. Your the nicest man I know.:
"Will I'm a scum bag. But I'm glad someone thinks good thoughts about
me."
"You are not." He says giving me that evil look of his.

"OK most of the time I am. But you make me nice. For you anyway. Lets go
set up your computer and phone. I want to put my number and Mickeys into
it in case you need us for anything."

"Cool."
So we sit at the table and get it all set up his phone is charging up. I
got him a wireless charger. Which is a complete puzzle to me how the fuck
that works. I mean really it charges with wires. It seems impossible to
me. Like magic or something. He is sitting on my lap as we are finishing
up setting up the computer for him. My phone is in my pocket and rings
the vibration makes him giggle seeing as how its on his little ass. I
slip it out and its Mickey.

"Yes?"
"I got the bitch. Heading your way."
"Cool. See you in a while."
I end the call.

"Mickey caught your mom you should go to the basement and watch TV."
"Are you going to hurt her?"
"Yeah a lot."
"Then I want to watch." He says with that evil grin.

I nod knowing what he is thinking.

We walk into the living room sit on the couch and wait.
