Part VII - 1: Don't You Just Love Surprises

It had been a very busy morning, saying good bye to Paul, Rita, Jen, and several others who we knew. When they left, we moved our stuff to the cabins we were assigned to administer and checked to make sure all the beds had clean sheets.

Joey and I stood at the end of the drive, watching the buses pull in with our wards. As the last bus pulled in, I suddenly felt an extremely familiar and exciting presence.

"Suzi," I said as I shivered.

"What?" Joey said, seeing the goose bumps on my arms.

"Suzi is here!" I said taking off towards her bus.

As Joey rushed up beside me in front of the bus door, we stared almost disbelieving at Suzi's catlike smile beaming back at us through the door's window. She had to step back so the bus driver could open the door, but immediately hurled herself out and nearly knocked us both over.

"Hi," she said as we recovered our posture.

"What do you mean Hi!" Joey said taking her in his arms and swinging her in a circle three times.

"You are amazing," I said as I took my turn holding her. I couldn't repeat Joey's stunt because we were now in the middle of a sea of shorter people.

"I know. But you know what? You are too. I felt you reach me. You know where I was?"

"No, where?"

"London, England."

"Shit!" Joey said before slapping his hand over his mouth. "Uhm, you guys didn't hear that," he said to the nine to thirteen year olds.

"Dang. Half way around the world. Remind me to tell my mom and father about that."

Berry Lutzer walked up and said, "Hey, aren't you guys supposed to be down at the other end?"

"Oops. Yeah." Joey said. "Uhm, Tim?"

"Yeah, I'll go. Heh. Hey Joey. Looks like you're already down there."

"Hey, save it for later. You can't hold that up for long."

"I know. But... Yeah you're right. I'm already feeling it."

My fake Joey disappeared to Joey's eyes, and I left him with Suzi. We all knew I could manage the entire parking lot if I had to without anyone's help, so there wasn't really any question about who would stay and help Suzi with her stuff.

Kid by kid, I placed my 'listen to Tim, he's your friend, don't let Tim down' commands. When I had finished with Joey's and my two buses of kids, I called off their names and put them in groups according to cabin. I was marching them off the lot in nice straight rows before the any of the others had managed to do their single bus.

We headed to the covered picnic tables for lunch, directing the kids to their cabin's table. Two of my five ten year olds had been in my bunch, and the other three showed up a few minutes later. I also was in charge of a cabin of thirteen year olds, who just like us knew the routine of the camp.

While all the kids were eating, all the Jr. counselors (that's what we were called) filtered in and introduced themselves to their wards. All except Joey that is. I had to take care of his nine and twelve year olds at the same time. I finally got a little irritated so I sought out Joey's and Suzi's minds.

Suzi had apparently brought everything but the kitchen sink with her. She had a tent for herself which was almost as big as our cabins. To my delight, there were two five gallon water containers of purple drink, and a queen size air mattress.

They had just managed to get everything carried behind the cabin area, and had stopped to cool off. Naturally they didn't cool off very long, and were in each other's arms getting rather hot. I let them have a few minutes, but after it appeared they didn't intend to stop, gave Joey a little reminder he had responsibilities.

Once they were heading to the rest of us, I broke off my invasion of their privacy and started to get to know my new cabin mates. Joey and Suzi finally showed up, and Suzi came over to my table for a bit.

"They are all so CUTE!" she said smiling at my group.

I caught Mick glancing over at us from his two cabins of eleven year olds, and I excused the two of us so I could show Mick the real McCoy.

"Wow. You're prettier than I imagined," Mick said.

Suzi gave him a friendly hug thanks, then giggled when I sent her the image Mick had made in his mind of her before.

Jerry, then Gina joined us for a few minutes to find out who the new arrival was. I heard one of my kids calling me, so I left Suzi amongst her new found fans.

Joey and I had probably made Suzi sound bigger than life. Everyone knew how important she was to Joey and I, and probably felt a little humbled to meet her. Suzi loved it.

Joey had come up with an idea and shared it with me. We had his older kids switch with my younger ones, and when Suzi came back, Joey and I sat on either side of her at the same table with our younger kids.

During the announcements after lunch, I connected Joey, Suzi, and myself in a partial three way so we could get caught up on recent events.

After Suzi had felt my mind touch hers she knew she wanted to see us both as soon as she got back home. Suzi and my mother convinced her parents, and my father set her up with her supplies and transportation. Actually, my father had wanted to send her in a limo, but Suzi wanted it to be a complete surprise and insisted on the bus.

While we were telling her of our own adventures, we all felt the strange sensation I received from one of my thirteen year olds. It had made Joey a little queasy, but excited Suzi and lessly myself. Since there was no objection, I killed the three way and examined the boy privately.

Eric Roberts was not your average thirteen year old. He was an early bloomer, having already a full crop of pubic hair at his crotch. The sensations which I had picked up on were his lusty thoughts about the kid sitting next to him, Randy Myers. Eric and Randy were more than best friends. Eric's thoughts were centered on the recent weeks where he had persuaded Randy to let him suck his dick.

Randy hadn't returned the favor, but he was very willing to let Eric have his way with his dick. Randy had even jerked Eric off several times without being prompted by Eric. I found Randy to be similar to Joey and myself in some respects. He was just fooling around until the real thing came along with a girl.

But Eric had no interest in girls. He hadn't actually made the connection that he was gay yet, but I immediately did. The sad part about the situation was, Eric loved Randy, but Randy could never see Eric as anything more than a friend. And Randy had already eyed some of the girls, hoping one of them would be interested in him.

"Great," I muttered to myself.

I had to link up to the other two and explain my comment, showing them the time bomb that was due to go off probably within the next few days.

I quickly scanned the rest of my wards, checking for any other hidden surprises. Apart from one of my nine year olds worried about all sorts of silly fears, I didn't find anything.

We had our first fight when everyone was getting up to take their things to their cabins. Scooter had the same age of kids as I had, finding himself in a bit awkward position having to give orders to kids only a year younger than he was. So it wasn't just luck that the two kids fighting were from his group.

Most people wouldn't realize right away how much this age difference mattered. Scooter was in his mind still a Jr. High student, even though he technically was a freshman. All the other Jr. counselors were High School students of at least one year. The thirteen year olds literally saw Scooter as one of them, despite the fact that Scooter had gone to camp with the high school students the year before.

Scooter was unsuccessfully trying to break it up before Jarvus and another adult counselor stepped in. No one but Scooter was blaming him for failing to control them. I wanted to help Scooter, but I had learned to wait until they came to me for help instead of butting in and offering it. A lot of times they would work it out on their own.

Johnny Bensite, the kid who had conjured up imaginary dangers to fear, picked the bunk above mine. He was climbing down the ladder when he slipped and fell flat on his back. He wasn't really hurt, but he had the wind knocked out of him and was crying as he gasped for his breath. My heart went out to him, and I found myself holding him against my chest, rubbing his back while making hushing sounds.

I gave him a hug when he had finished sobbing, and he returned it probably out of habit. He was the first of those five boys I felt something more for than just the responsibility for them. Little did I know in two weeks I would be crying my eyes out after saying good bye to my five little brothers.

Officially, Suzi was a trespasser at the camp. She hadn't paid for anything, and her presence would be a constant distraction to Joey and myself. While Joey and I were busy with settling in with our wards, Suzi was at the office talking to Smitzer and Jarvus about how she could fit in.

It surprisingly hadn't taken much to make the two head counselors accept the idea of Suzi being around. I had simply added the knowledge to their minds that Suzi had been expected. Once that was done, they both came to the conclusion that having an extra Jr. counselor would work out great.

While Suzi kept Joey's and my younger crowd entertained, our older boys helped us set up Suzi's tent and equipment. It was difficult to curb their curiosity about the two big bottles of purple liquid. And if Suzi's trunk hadn't made such a loud squeak when one of the boys opened it, I'm certain they would have found all sorts of interesting things inside.

"Shit, Suzi. What did you do? Empty the toy box before you left?" Joey asked pulling out three different types of vibrators.

"Actually, the twins helped me pack. Tim, you need to have a long talk with them. They think everyone here is going to want to have sex. They insisted I pack those things to give out to all the girls so they could have something while they waited for you guys to get to them. It's a good thing I didn't know there were this many people here. I would have had to bring another trunk!"

"Heh," Joey said with five vibrators stuck down his shorts.

Jason, one of Joey's older kids came in, catching a glance of Joey before Joey could turn around.

"Uhm... The extension cord doesn't reach to hook up the lights. Rob thinks the only way we can do it is by moving the tent over."

"Awe man!" I moaned.

"We just got everything set up in here," Suzi added.

"Yeah," Joey said while bending over the trunk to slip the vibrators in it. He forgot about the penis shaped one he had in his back pocket until the extra pressure against the stretched material reminded him. He stood up real fast and hit his head on the trunk's lid.

"Shit," Joey said holding his head while tossing the dildo into the trunk and slamming it shut.

Jason had a wry little grin, more confused than anything else.

"Don't mind him. He just watches the Playboy channel too much," I said to Jason. "Come on Joey, let's see if we can figure out anything."

As it turned out, we did have to move the tent over three feet. We had to stop for dinner before everything was set up again. Afterwards, we took everybody on a hike and showed Suzi the tree. By the time we got back to camp, Joey volunteered to take our younger ones to the showers. In reality, Joey had taken the lesser of two evils. By taking the younger ones, he left me with the responsibility of making sure the older ones took their showers. Because they were old enough not to really need someone to monitor their showering, it was only required for someone to do so the first night. It was a stupid rule, but a twelve year old had gotten scalded before my time, so they kept the rule even though it couldn't happen any more. I wondered if that was the reason we always ran out of hot water.

When it was my group's turn, all the boys were a bit hesitant about stripping in front of everyone else. Eric especially was nervous because he had a hard on in anticipation of what he would see.

"Shit, guys," I said slipping my own shorts off. "You're going to be seeing each other naked every night for two weeks. We're all guys, and you're all gonna end up lookin' pretty much like this in two years. So what if some of you are a little bit bigger or have some hair. That stuff doesn't count. What counts is what you do with it."

Most of the guys started stripping, but a few were still holding out.

"All right. Here," I said stroking mine. When my hardon took hold, I said, "Now stop screwing around and get going. I popped the first boner, so if anyone else does and gets made fun of, they will have to make fun of me to my face. Shit guys. We all get boners. What's the big deal?"

After everyone recovered from their staring fit, I was rewarded by having to wait for someone to finish before I could shower myself. I kept a close eye on Eric and Randy. Or I should say a close mind's eye. After Randy noticed Eric's boner, his got hard too. They were making jokes with each other, and I noticed Hank next to them finding their jokes amusing too. And as much as he tried, he couldn't help but get a woody himself.

I found myself to be the center of Eric's attention for a minute or two. He studied my backside, and I even purposely turned to the side and gave my softening dick a few quick jerks without letting on I knew he was watching. He quickly returned his eyes to his own business, and fairly soon I found myself alone in the showers. I slipped my fresh shorts on and headed out the door.

Halfway back to the cabin, I felt something amiss. I stopped and reached around with my mind, finding Eric and Randy had taken cover nearby for a quick blow. They were concerned that I had stopped, but Eric went back to his sucking after I moved on without glancing towards them.

They were in their cabin by the time I checked it. I told them I had gotten them out of the flower basket activity, and instead we would be going to the beach the next afternoon. I won their popularity contest that night.

The next morning I came slowly out of my sleep to the sounds of whispers. When I opened my eyes, I found my beloved pecker again standing straight out of my boxers, waiting for my attentions. I heard a giggle and found all five boys very amused by my condition.

I wasn't about to corrupt them with my ways, so I just said softly, "Down boy," and made my dick go soft immediately. I stuffed him in his proper place then got up and slipped on my shorts without showing a sign anything unusual had happened.

Johnny made a surprise attack from above, landing on my back and clinging on my shoulders. I fell backwards onto my bunk, quickly overpowering him and started the tickling. Two more monkeys climbed on my back with a shout. I found myself overpowered a moment later when the other two joined in.
