Summer Story 6/15

In case you missed what went before,here they are!





MAY
Whitney was walking his bike near the end of the castle drive when Lex came rolling up on his bike.

He stopped and gave Lex a long level look.

“What.” He asked flatly.

Lex tried to smile, but he was a little shy of Whitney, he kind of scared him sometimes. There was something about him that made him seem older than the rest of the guys—something that lurked in the corner of every smile and sometimes clouded his blue eyes. Lex thought he recognized what it was, figured he and Whit had more in common than Clark and Pete did—that’s why he wanted to be better friends with him. He thought Whit could use the kind of friend he could be, the kind of friend who would understand things Clark just couldn’t. He wouldn’t mind having some one he could talk to, either.

“ I –can I ride with you today? I don’t have anything else to do, so—“

“Sure,” Whitney replied. “I don’t care.”

“Good.”

They rode together, not speaking, just concentrating on the road, the summer sun warming them as they pedaled leisurely along, and a slight breeze dried the sweat the heat rose. Silence hung around them comfortably, broken only by the sound of their tires whirring on the asphalt and the low drone of a plane in the distance. They rode farther then usual, till there was nothing around them but fields and they were on a dirt access road between farms. Whitney told Lex there was a pond a little ways off the road, so they headed over to see what they could find, frogs or something, and they speculated as to whether any rare species could be in it. “You can get a lot of money for discovering a new kind of animal, it’s a fact,” Whitney was saying. He looked over at Lex and said, “Not that you give a shit about money.”

Lex laughed and Whitney grinned.

“Fuck you, Whit, “ he said and Whitney’s eyes got big, and he looked at Lex in something like admiration.

“Whoa, Luthor, didn’t’ know you knew those kind of words, kiss your mom with that mouth?”

Lex laughed and stuck his tongue out, waggled it at Whitney and said, “Naw, but I kiss your mom with this and she likes it!”

Neither one of them had any real idea of what that meant but clearly in some way his mother had been insulted and Whitney was honor bound to defend her. He jumped Lex, and they wrestled and thumped each other and laughed a lot, and finally ended up sitting against a fence just talking—getting to really know each other.

TBC! Yes! I mean it!

Whitney and Lex could've had a lot in common, and been good friends, couldn't they? Sometimes I forget all about poor Whitney.

This isn't *just* cute, it's also thought-provoking.

Nothing to start a new friendship like insulting one's mother. Le sigh.
