Cory found that he was rather disappointed the next day after school when Mr. Peterson wasn't there... he'd gotten used to finding pleasure in his teacher's office. He saw Sam, but it wasn't the same, and Sam seemed to be involved with his own group of boys - who were now leaving Cory alone thankfully.
So instead, Cory went to the gym and worked out, running laps around the track to work off some steam. It helped a lot, even though he found himself looking at the other young men in a very different way, sliding his eyes over their bodies and wondering what they looked like under their shorts. He wondered if any of them were looking at him in the same way... it was these thoughts which really kept his run from being totally useful.
Retiring to the showers, Cory found that he was not alone. Buck Johnson, Captain of the Football Team, was in there showering. Trying not to blatantly look, Cory couldn't help by eye Buck... he was very muscular and very attractive, an air of masculinity seeming to roll off of his body. Very different from both Mr. Peterson and Sam... Cory shifted his body to hide his slightly swollen member, not wanting Buck to see it.
But Buck already had.
"Like the view?" he sneered, walking over and showing himself off, "You're one of those guys that hangs around with Sam aren't you?"
Cory had been bullied by Sam for so long that he'd never considered other people might think that he was part of Sam's group... and he'd definitely never realized that other people looked at Sam and his friend's with contempt.
