"You know I won't mind. We were going to go to the funeral today and pay our respects to our friend and classmate. We'll just plan on doing that song. You do such an incredible job with it; I'm not surprised he asked. You were great last night."

So it came to pass that Mitchell was seated at the old piano in the Methodist church with Christine standing behind him. She held a microphone and Mitchell had one placed in front of him. He nodded to Christine and began playing. Christine delivered an extremely moving rendition of the song. He joined her for the chorus, the part that he sang solo the previous evening when Christine became too emotional to continue.

As he finished playing, Mitchell realized that Christine had been absolutely unbelievable. Those in attendance were totally silent except for the many sobs that echoed in the church. It was a fairly large church and almost every Highland high school senior was in attendance. It was actually slightly awkward because many felt that

    Maddie was the only one at home when Christine and Mitchell returned to the Leonard's. She immediately picked up on how saddened Christine and Mitchell were."I have to leave for school in a little while. I took a couple days off to see if I could help you guys through a tough Time, and to be sure Mitchell would be okay. When I heard you were shot twice in that attack, my heart just about stopped. When I saw Christine on television rallying the Highland Nation to donate blood, my heart almost burst with pride. You are both incredible individuals, but together you're absolutely amazing."Mitchell, go get undressed and Christine and I Will redo your bandages. Wait a minute and I'll undo your tie," teased Maddie as she stepped close to Mitchell and began fumbling with his tie."I know what you're doing, Maddie. I was the one that tied it this morning, although I almost had to fight mother for the chance. You seem to be taking an awfully long Time, and you're not even wearing a bra. Mi

    "Young lady, you're not supposed to notice things like that," warned Melissa as she carried a bag of groceries into the kitchen. "You just never had any brothers, so you're not used to seeing powerful, good looking, bare-chested men.""So, Mom, are you saying the same thing I was, but in a round-about way? You like having good looking guys with their shirts off in the kitchen?""I'm saying that we're used to girls, but have much less experience with males in this house. Mitchell can go shirtless anytime as far as I'm concerned. I'll just have to endure it since I want to be a polite hostess."Did I hear today that you and Christine will be performing at the funeral for Mike Reynolds? This singing you two are doing seems to be very popular. Hailey already told you that a lot of people stopped us to say what a great job you did at the funeral today and the memorial last night. The fact that you are so good at singing and dancing seems to go against the fact that you're the star quart

    Mitchell stood very still as Christine moved down to dry off his ass and legs. He was extremely nervous when Christine slowly moved around in front of him. She smiled as she gently worked the towel over his injured shoulder and then over his chest and chest. She looked is his eyes and smiled broadly as her hands slid the towel down his body."My. It seems like there is a lot of pressure built up here. I'm not experienced in relieving it, so what should I do?" mused Christine as she ran her towel covered hand over Mitchell's very hard cock.Mitchell suddenly gasped and placed his good arm on Christine's shoulder as he visibly trembled. Christine's smile broadened as she instinctively slowed her hand movement. Mitchell's breathing quickly returned to normal, but his face was flushed and he appeared nervous."Christine, I'm so sorry. I couldn't stop it. I can't believe how fast I came. I hope you don't think I'm some kind of pervert or something.""Are you kidding? I don't have much

    Mike Reynolds' parents were in tears as they embraced Christine and Mitchell after the funeral. "That was the best possible tribute our son could have been given. You kids are special. You made this gathering feel the love, and the pain we all have with Mike's passing. Thanks so much."Once again, it took the young couple a long Time to reach the car. People kept stopping them and offering thanks and praise for the decisive action they took the day of the attack and for the incredible performance they delivered in tribute. As they prepared to climb into the car, a well dressed man approached them."Kids, I'm Dwayne Burton. Young Mike was my cousin's son. I attended the memorial the other night, as well as the funerals of the three kids. After I heard you at the memorial service, I took the liberty of setting up some good sound equipment in both churches in which you two sang. I spent most of the night splicing together a video to go with the 'Troubled Water' song and I think I have

    "Thanks. The nice thing about us being naked is that I can actually see how much you appreciate looking at me. It looks like Little Mitchell enjoys the view. He's looking right at me." laughed Christine as she began soaping Mitchell's shoulders and chest.The shower lasted until the hot water ran out. Mitchell and Christine washed each other carefully and thoroughly. "That's got to be the cleanest I've ever been, Mitchell. I don't think you missed a single square inch of my body. Now you have to dry me off."As he finished toweling Christine dry, Mitchell pulled her naked body to his and kissed Christine passionately. Christine was facing the door so she saw it swing open and Hailey suddenly stop in shock. Behind Hailey, Christine could see her mother watching from the kitchen. Hailey was frozen in place until Christine motioned with her hand for Hailey to close the door. Twenty minutes later, Mitchell was bandaged, dressed and seated at the kitchen table. Christine was upstairs get

    "That is none of your business. Your father was a senior in college and came back to Highland to watch a football game his cousin Tim was playing in. Tim introduced us at the dance after the game. Your father was so mature and good looking. I fell in love with him that first night, but I didn't tell him for a long time. He thought he had to work hard to get me to fall for him, so he came back to Highland every chance he had to court me. It may be hard to believe now, but he was very romantic back then.""So you fell in love at first sight, too? When Mitchell sat down at my table at the mall that day, my heart stopped. I had trouble breathing. I just sat and stared at him for a long time.""I didn't notice since I was totally lost by that Time," admitted Mitchell. "I was in love before I even sat down at the table that day. I can't explain it, but I knew that the incredibly beautiful girl sitting there was the one for me. That's why I asked you to go to the dance with me, and I refus

    "The events of that day cannot be discussed without mentioning Mitchell Kays. Everyone in this room knows the decisive action he took to save many lives, as well as the very building in which we stand. I do not want to recount his efforts of that morning as we are here to heal, to move forward. We're fortunate to have such quick thinking, capable students in this school. We are the Highland Nation and we're Highland proud."It took a few days, but school returned to a new normal. Basketball season resumed and the first home game was difficult. Everyone that entered the gym couldn't help but think about the violence and death that took place there. The floors had been sanded and refinished so there was no sign of blood, but most people had seen the video and knew where the pools had been.Christine and Mitchell were elevated to celebrity status. More precisely, they became school royalty. Students, and even teachers, deferred to them during school and at after school events. Mitchell

    Christine was stunned as she listened to Mitchell deliver one of the best love songs ever written. His voice was strong and rich, and his emotion was obvious to all. Sighs erupted from the girls in the audience and Hailey and Maddie had tears running down their cheeks.None of the surrounding distractions affected Mitchell in any way. He continued to watch Christine and sing as well as he could. Time seemed to stand still for Christine as she listened to her boyfriend profess his love for her on television. She imagined her heart exploding as she listened. How could she have ever found such an amazing guy?As Mitchell played the last note, the camera swung back to Nell Daniels. She was caught on camera trying to wipe tears from her eyes. "If anyone has ever heard that song done better, I'll eat this microphone. Our time is up for today, but you can be sure we'll be hearing a lot more about "Lady in Red" clothing, and their singing. Thanks everyone."As soon as Nell signed off, peop

    "If Christine gets cold feet, or her conscience won't let her go through with it, I'd be willing to trade with her, just because that's the kind of friend I am," volunteered Jordan. "Thank you, Jordan. Christine, you're so lucky to have friends like Jordan," stated Melissa sarcastically. "She's willing to take a bullet for you, if the need arises." "Gee, thanks. I don't think I'll need any help, however. I have all the protection necessary, so those 'bullets' will not be hitting the intended target. There's really no need to worry about me. I'll make sure that the gun is empty by morning." "That's how class valedictorians talk these days?" demanded Hailey. "A few months ago, she hadn't ever been on a date and now she's talking about single handedly unloading a dangerous weapon." "I never said anything about using my hands, at least not tonight." laughed Christine, as Hailey was the one to blush this time. "If I may change the subject once again, we're invited to a costume party t

    "Look. It's the Eiffel Tower," exclaimed Willow as she pointed out the window of the shuttle van. "Everybody get lots of pictures and we'll share them all when we get home. I have to thank you again, Christine, for making me part of this great adventure. I'm lucky to be your cousin." "You're lucky to be so pretty and shapely. You're lucky to have such understanding parents. You're lucky that Mitchell, for whatever reason, decided to take a chance on me that day at the mall. We're all lucky that Highland won that first football game. I'm lucky I'm not in tears right now because I'm so happy," Christine said. "We're all happy, Sis, but you've got more reason to be happy than the rest of us girls. Tonight, you're going to go to bed a girl and waking up a woman," stated Hailey with genuine happiness for her sister. "Spring Break in Paris with your hunky boyfriend. I don't think it can get much better than that." "It would get better if everyone left my personal life out of their discus

    "Are you kidding," shrieked Hailey. "I'm going to Paris on Spring Break. This is way too cool. I can't believe it. I have to go shopping for some new clothes. We should get one of those CD's that teaches you how to speak French in three days. I'm going to call Willow." "Just a minute, Hailey," interrupted her father. "I can't go since we have to work. It's the busy time of year for those of us in accounting. I expect all of you to obey Melissa and Donna without question or dissent. That goes for you, too, Mitchell. You're a very mature young man, but Melissa and Donna are the adults on this trip. I want all of you to have a great time but be safe. Mitchell, I'll rely on you to keep them all safe. You seem to have assumed that duty already. No one wanders off alone and always be sure that Melissa and Donna know where you are. That's my speech on this trip." Later, as Christine was standing on the porch with Mitchell, she mentioned what she knew had to be on his mind. "I made sure tha

    Mitchell lifted his overnight bag and went to Jordan's room and knocked. She quickly opened it with her suitcase in hand and tears running down her cheeks. She stepped into the hall and slammed the door behind her. "Let's get out of here. I watched the news while I was packing. They had a clip of you carrying me half naked, but with my tits blurred out. Then they bleeped the bad parts of my brilliant speech about you bleeping me with your big bleep. I've probably destroyed both our careers and lost Christine's friendship. I hope she doesn't believe that we did anything. I don't know how I'm going to be able to face her." Jordan said. Mitchell had called for a cab to take them to LAX. When he and Jordan entered the lobby from the elevator, several photographers began snapping pictures of them and calling out questions. Mitchell calmly led a teary-eyed Jordan out the door to the waiting cab without making any comment. It was dusk when Mitchell pulled into the Leonard driveway "I can'

    "You're right, Sweetheart. This relationship, this love that you two have isn't like anything I've ever seen. You aren't normal or average. Your capacity and ability are exceptional. Don't let me discourage you. I admire and respect your confidence in each other, as well as the Acep love you share. It's very rare and extremely special," Mitchell finished speaking with Christine and went to check on Jordan. She had managed to push the covers down, so she was on her side with her amazing breasts on display. Shaking his head, Mitchell covered her back up and went and stretched out as well as he could on a stuffed chair in the corner.He was awaited some time later by an unfamiliar sound and sat up to listen. Unable to identify it, he stood and walked toward it. He found Jordan huddled in the fetal position on the floor of the bathroom, sobbing uncontrollably. He gently picked her up, carried her back into the room, and sat back down in his chair while Jordan cried and clung to him. Mitc

    Mitchell remained silent as he carried Jordan to the door while everyone watched. Before leaving, he gently placed Jordan on a chair, unbuttoned his shirt, took it off, placed it over her, and buttoned it up. More than a few of the watchers noticed the way Mitchell's biceps filled out the sleeves of his undershirt as he easily lifted Jordan and left the suite.By the time the elevator reached the bottom floor, Jordan was making no sense at all. She had her arms wrapped around Mitchell's neck and her head buried in his shoulder. Mitchell turned to his left and exited the hotel through a side door. He crossed the street as quickly as he could, entered his hotel from a side street, and hurried to the elevators. Jordan's room was next to his, but when he reached it, he realized that she didn't have her card key. All she had was a thong and the shirt Mitchell had placed over her nakedness.Mitchell had no choice but to take her to his room. As he kicked the door closed, Jordan began maki

    Dwayne called Mitchell later in the day. "You and Jordan are going to perform on your big hit on 'American Singer' on their season finale. That's Thursday and they'll have a huge audience because that's when they name their season winner. The show's supplying two round trip tickets, two hotel rooms, and paying each of you ten grand for the day's work. If you want that directed to the hospital fund, I'll see that it happens. I have it set up for the two of you to fly out to LA Thursday. You'll do the show that night, stay in a good hotel and fly home the next morning.""That sounds great. That show's huge and millions of people watch it, especially the season finale," pointed out Christine when Mitchell told her about Dwayne's call. "You'll promote your song and make money for the hospital fund. I'm not upset about not being included. We're going to be apart a lot in the future, and we have to deal with it. You can bet I'll be watching the show and wishing you and Jordan the best."T

    "This campaign has been an unbelievable success, and that's mostly the result of everything you two have done to make this work. We have almost three months left, so we should be able to build the total even higher. It would be great if we had a million dollars by graduation. I know that isn't likely, but it would be a tremendous pleasure to announce that total in front of all the parents. But whatever the total, it'll be a wonderful moment for all of us.""Do you want to tell Ms. Metzger, or shall I?" asked Christine, as she watched for Mitchell to nod at her. "Dwayne Burton called last night. He's roughly edited those TV shows we shot in LA, but ABC has already been pushing very hard to buy them. He told us that the network offered a huge sum. It would guarantee at least a million dollars for the hospital fund. Dwayne told them it wasn't enough. He said we'd agree if ABC would ante up another million just to buy an option to hire us to tape two more shows. If they decide to enforce

    "She said her news director heard the rumor that Hardy clashed with us this morning and was escorted from the hotel. The local station was disappointed that it didn't have more coverage of Saturday night. They told Nell that she'd be traveling with us when we went to any significant events from now on. Her interview tomorrow will be replayed, at least in part, on the network's morning show. She's going to meet us at school a little early. She thought it would be a good backdrop while she asked us questions,” Christine stated."She wants Hailey, Jordan, and us to be available for the interview. She's going to ask about that encounter you had with that Chechen, so be ready for that. I'll probably tell her about our invitation to Paris, unless you have an objection, Mitchell.""I'm going to be on TV. What should I wear? What will she ask me? What if I sound stupid? Mom, you have to record it for me," insisted Hailey."Go ahead and tell her about Paris. She'll be excited about that tri
