Romeo and Juliet?! Will Work for Food!

A couple of years ago in New York City, i went to "Escuelita" a famous dance club for the black and hispanic comunity also known for the its strippers and for the porn movies, every now and then they do a party to release a porn movie... Big Ben is one of my friends... the owner and producer (but hey i never did a porn)! LOL... even tho he has invited me several times! Normally we go have breakfast together... Me, Big Ben and Moses... and they keep on saying: "when you think you cant do this anymore, we'll make you a porn star"
So at least i'll have a future anyhow! LOL...
Continuing... i went there for the 1st time... and there was this: Stripper... Romeo (i mean, how can you not love a guy called Romeo?)... he wasnt the type of beauty i would be attracted to, but his moves were driving me crazy, he had a muscular body and he could move every single muscle in it! I was drewling!
At the time i was in a relationship so i kept the image in my mind but i wouldnt harm my relationship for a night with a stripper!
Years passed, exactly 2 years, and somehow i had still the image in my head: "his curved body drowned in sweat, moving like a snake..."
So one night i decided to pay a visit to the Club again!
And for my suprise, he was still there... dancing his ass off... his body was even better, he had shaven his head... i was drewling as much or more as the first time!
I was single! So, it was the time to make the Move!
I went up to him, and put a dollar bill on the side of his underwear, i looked at him in the eye and when i was leaving he asked: "what are you doing later?"
i said: "i'm having breakfast with you"
he smiled and said: "i'll leave at 2am, wait for me then"
I got all excited, the move had been perfect, i went to the bar and started drinking apple martinis...
2am, he was ready... and i was drunk and hard as a piece of iron!
The closest place open was the McDonalds on 8th Ave and 45st... so there we headed!
During the "Happy Meal", we talked a bit, but he couldnt stop eating... after dancing the whole night i'm sure he had to feed the body, the 19 year old puerto-rican body!
I asked: "so what are your plans for the night?"
Romeo: "i thought i was going to chill at your place, i live in queens man, i cant go there now, my ride is gone" (with the yoh yoh puerto-rican accent, that only made him more attractive)
We jumped to my old dodge van, and he said, he wanted to drive... i have to admit that it was probably one of the hugest mistakes i had made, cuz he had never driven before, and it was just scary... but fun, we couldnt stop laughing, we knew the cops could've stopped us anytime, but we didnt care much, we were both young and restless! Looking for Trouble (literaly)! We bonded!
We got downtown, to chambers st. Safe! There was my apartment, we went up 8 floors, and once i close the door... we started fooling around...
I cant really explain what i felt, it just felt like i was getting something that i've wished for very long! I couldnt Stop, and i didnt care about anything else but possess him!
The clothes were gone and when i was about to introduce "myself in himself"
I heard a breathless but strong: STOP!
"Anh? Stop? Why?" i wondered...
He said: "I'm H.I.V. positive"
I was in shock... not for the new, that was so abruptly said, but for the fact that, this guy had just "saved my life of what could've been a huge mistake i would not have the chance to fix ever"... i didnt have a condom on... i wasnt thinking, and i would've regret it for the rest of my life!
(a lesson of a lifetime, he could've been quiet, or ashamed and now i would've been infected)
I saw tears running out of his eyes, i held him strong, and with no more words we both fell asleep. In the morning we woke up playing as if nothing had happenned... just like 2 brothers... i never asked for an explaination... we hang out for days and days... he told me the story after a long time... his life is the life of lots of boys his age in NYC... a prostitute mother and a pimp father... all he wanted to do was to be a MAN, and be able to survive on his own! Not an easy due in a city like NY with his background! Being around me, helped him, leave the club scene, he stopped dancing and decided to go back to school to finish his degree, i'm so happy i helped in that sense, all i want is his happiness. My drive lessons helped him get a license... i remenber once we got stuck in the highway with no gas... he just couldnt stop driving! Sometimes we would drive Upstate (white planes) and crash in the car for the night, with no heater, in the winter! We used to breakdance in the subway station and make money to go eat at the "applebees" or sing with a lil stereo in TimeSquare! Romeo is a great singer... once he sang for me: "let me love you", and gosh... it was off the hook! oh shit! WOW... good times good times! We also fought several times over Girls, he taught me how to be a Player! I mean there are so many crazy things we've done as the day he took me to meet his parents... LOL... and when i took him to meet mine! It was Hilarious! He was so nervous he couldnt stop talking! This is another person that makes my life worth living, that teach me how to live to an extreme... and show me that there is always a way to overcome a problem, cuz there is others with even more problems and some even cronical... those will never go away, such as H.I.V.!
I Love you Romeo! Hey, would that make of me Juliet? LOL...

P.S.: Now that i started, i will not stop until i can share with the world the stories of the People that has influenced, contribuited and changed my life!
