#8: Friendship
“Wild day,” Jason Scott commented as he traced a finger along one of the black insets in his new gold communicator.
“Yeah,” responded Tommy Oliver from his spot on the grass next to his best friend.
Jason turned to Tommy with a raised eyebrow and a smirk, “Well, haven’t we become the stunning conversationalist while I was away.”
“Not my fault you’ve gotten used to listening to long winded, diplomatic bullshit,” Tommy returned with a smirk of his own.
Jason playfully slugged Tommy in the shoulder and leaned back. He was silent for a few moments, “It’s good to be back.” Jason was quiet again, and then added, “I’ve been worried about you.”
Tommy looked at his friend, “Me? Why?”
“Well, you were pretty torn up after . . .” Jason trailed off, not wanting to mention Kim directly.
“Yeah, I was. But, I’m over that. Actually, I’m with someone else now.”
Jason sat upright, “Really? Who? Why didn’t you tell me? I bet it’s Kat.”
Tommy chuckled, but nervously, “Yes, really. But it’s not Kat . . . and, um” Tommy swallowed hard, “that’s why I didn’t tell you.”
Jason sensed there was something serious going on in his best friend’s head, “Tom, whatever, whoever it is, you can tell me. We’re friends right?”
“Friends, yeah. That’s why I haven’t told you . . . I’m not sure we’ll be friends afterward.”
Suddenly where Tommy was going with this hit him like a ton of bricks. Jason had heard stories involving this kind of conversation, and the bad things that could happen, from several people he had met at the peace conference. He decided to spare his best friend, his brother in all but blood, and he was now certain nothing would ever change that, any more discomfort. Placing a hand on Tommy’s shoulder he said, “Tommy, the only way who you’re seeing now would freak me out is if you told me it was Bulk, or Skull. Or worse, both.”
Tommy just stared at Jason for a second, as if not certain he had heard him right. He finally asked, “So, we’re okay? Even if I’m with a guy?”
Jason shook him, “Yes dummy. You’re more than my best friend, you’re my brother. I love you regardless. Now, however, as you brother, I retain all right to thoroughly disapprove of and threaten the life of this new boyfriend of yours.”
Relief flooded through Tommy’s body and showed in his eyes, “Thanks Jase.”
“No problem. Now, are you gonna tell me who it is or do I have to beat it out of you?”
Tommy gave Jason their usual “I’d like to see you try” look at the beating comment, but then he finally relented and said, “It’s Adam.”
Jason sat back. “Adam? Really? Okay. He’s a good guy. So, I won’t have to threaten him. Plus, Rocky would try to hurt me if I did, and he’s sneaky.” Jason was quiet again for a moment, but then added with a mischievous smirk, “But wow. I mean, after that whole Scorpina thing, I knew the Adam had bad luck, but to end up with you . . .”
By the time what Jason had said had truly registered in Tommy’s mind, the other boy was off and running, laughing. “You are a dead man Scott!!!” Tommy yelled as he jumped up to give chase.
