Hey, all. I can't link to previous chapters, as the bot deleted the post (sorry!) but if you want to read them, check out my posting history.
This story is purely fiction.
Chapter 16
Day 7 (Port Day), afternoon (teen, m/m, m/m/f, inc)
Jon stood by the dining room door, wondering where on earth Mark had gotten to. They had made plans to have lunch together, but Mark was nowhere to be found, and he was 20 minutes late. Jon was willing to give him another 10 minutes before giving up and having lunch by himself.
A pair of twenty-something girls smiled at him in greeting as they walked past him into the dining room. Feeling himself blushing a little, Jon returned the smile, and started in surprise when a voice whispered in his ear, "Are you two-timing my sister?"
Whipping around, he turned to face Mark, whose shit-eating grin broke the tension of the moment. Jon playfully punched him in the shoulder and laughed. "Where have you been? I've been here for 25 minutes – I was just about to give up on you."
"Well… sigh I have something to tell you… but first, let's sit down and order lunch."
