One thing did make me open my eyes though, it was when I felt a hand touch the tip of my dick. I looked to see who it was and it was Cody smiling at me. “You better quit that or something bad is going to happen.
” I said. “Like what?” he said genuinely curious.
“This!” I said as I grabbed the little guy in a tickle torture. He was writhing with laughter as I jabbed at his ribs and poked around his belly with my fingers.
“Stop! Stop! I’m gonna pee!
” he said through his heavy laughter. I let him go then and he was still giggling trying to catch his breath. His brother just looked at him and shook his head.
“What you want some to?” I said grabbing Cole in the same torturous grip. I tickled him just as bad as I did his twin, only at the end I gave his pecker a squeeze for good measure.
The twins were defeated in the horse play department and now only Nate was left. I looked at him with an evil grin and lurched at him slowly. “No way not me!
” he said as he tried to get away. The twins grabbed him and held him while I wrapped him up in my arms and went to town on his ribs and tummy. He was giggling and squealing like crazy as we all three tickled him.
I could tell he had enough when he started to have strained breathing so I told the twins it was enough. They stopped tickling him and decided to get out and dry off but he and I stayed in. I for one still needed a little more soak time in the hot water and Nathan needed a little time to catch his breath.
“God I hate it when you guys do that.” he said heaving. He decided to get out to a short time later and that left me alone to think and soak.
I sat back in the water and closed my eyes and let my mind soar. All I could think of was my recently departed friends and how their loss was affecting the rest of the group especially poor Phil. He felt so guilty over being the only one of the three that survived the attack.
I tried to redirect my thoughts to the future and where we were going possibly live in the tropics. I had been to the Bahamas before but that didn’t mean that was where were going to end up. I always liked the time I got to spend there and was looking forward to being able to maybe go there again.
I must have dozed off in the water because the next thing I knew I was shaken awake by Chris. “What’s up dude?” I asked.
“Nothing. You was snoring and I thought it might not be a good idea to let you sleep in the bath tub.” He replied.
“What time is it?” I inquired. “Almost 7 pm.
” He answered. I got out of the water and my skin had turned to that wrinkly prune look that you get form being in water too long. I dried off and walked with my little buddy back to the common area.
Most of the boys were in there playing a game or reading but for the most part it was quiet. Chris and I found Adrien was in the “command center” working on the plans and stuff for the alien ship. “How’s things going?
” I asked. “I believe I can get the ship under power and use the substrait engines to get us to our destination.” He said.
“Huh?” Chris asked puzzled. “He means the ship will have low gear.
” I explained. “Oh. Ok I guess.
When are we leaving?” Chris asked. We both looked at Adrien then.
“It will not be long. We can make it there on the substrait engines and I almost have the cloaking shields repaired.” He said.
“How much longer do you think as an estimate?” I asked. “2 or 3 days maybe.
” Adrien said lifting Chris’ spirits. “Cool!” he chimed.
“Why is there such a rush on this?” Adrien asked. “It’s not really a rush I just want to know how long we have to get every thing organized and ready to go.
I mean shit dude it’ll take us a few days to get everything packed ready and down to the ship to load it.” I explained. “Ok I see the logic in that now.
I guess maybe we should start preparing as soon as possible.” Adrien said. I left him then to spread the good new but Chris beat me to it.
“Hey every one we’re leaving soon! So tomorrow start getting your stuff packed.” He said like the hyper little dude he is.
“Whoa, whoa slow down. Adrien isn’t done with the ship yet so we have a few days to get ready while he gets the shields repaired on the ship.” I stated to everyone.
That news lifted every ones spirits from the dreadfulness of earlier today. “What all are we taking with us?” AJ asked.
“As much as we can, that ship has a pretty damn big cargo area so we should be able to cram a lot in it.” I said. “Like what exactly?
” Josiah asked. “Well I think we should take as much food and supplies as we can get our hands on. Let’s see.
…
we should raid the wal mart and get what ever we may need or want. We should take some stuff to build a new home just incase we have to. We are definitely taking our beds and stuff with us.
I think we should take the ATV incase we may need it.” I said rattling off a list of things. “We should go to the pharmacy to and grab anything we can carry just incase as well.
” Carry suggested. “May I suggest we take our power and information systems for the cave with us as well.” Adrien said from behind me.
“Definitely we are going to need this stuff. It’s not every day you get your hands on an alien device like that.” I told him.
“So basically it means we are all going to be working our asses off in the next few days right?” Adam said. “Looks that way yeah.
We’ll work out the details of it all tomorrow. Let’s get a good nights rest so we have plenty of time tomorrow to get some stuff done.” I replied.
With the good news I knew it was going to be hard for some of the guys to go to sleep, but for me I was sore as hell from digging that grave and ready for a good nap. We all got to our sleeping areas and got comfy. Some of the guys read a comic book or something to help them fall asleep, but I dozed right away.
I was so tired I did something I rarely did, I snored like hell. I was woken up by Justin some time later asking me to please turn on my side or something because he couldn’t sleep because of my snoring. I turned on my side and cuddled up to the back of some on and I didn’t know who it was at first but turned out to be Donny.
I wrapped an arm over him and fell back to sleep peacefully this time.
