Jimmy promised Bryan that he wouldn't breathe a word to anyone about Bryan's boner sitting next to Stephanie. After all, they were such close friends and Bryan knew he could trust Jimmy to keep his secret.
Jimmy thought more about what Bryan had said about acting normal and said, "act normal, how can you act normal when you throw a boner sitting next to a girl. You can't very well cover yourself with your hands, that's way too obvious and way too dangerous - one touch too many and you've shot your wad."
"I mean act normal like it doesn't bother you, like you don't think it's a big deal" answered Bryan.
"Not a big deal, are you crazy, getting hard in front of a girl, especially one that you like and that likes you, that sure is a big deal to me," Jimmy cried. "Seriously dude, how often does that happen to you."
Bryan decided to be completely honest and said, "Well, it happened a few more times than I said last season. You know, it's hard to avoid in the tiny suits, and when I sit next to Stephanie, well, you can figure it out. But, it really got easier because Stephanie knew what was happening and she certainly has seen lots of guys in tiny suits with their manhood clearly outlined."
"I'm just going to stay away from the girls so it doesn't happen to me. If I got a boner in public like that, I think I would just die."
"Hey dude, don't worry about it, like I said, it happens to every guy who swims in a tiny brief."
Jimmy listened to Bryan and thought, "easy for him to say, he's not as big as I am" as he remembered what happened when he put on the team suit for the first time, "I'm afraid I might come right out of the suit and I know I'll never be comfortable in front of girls in a team suit."
Bryan decided to change the subject and said, "Jimmy, if you keep worrying about it, you're going to make yourself crazy, let's talk about the first day of practice and what to expect."
"Sure, I'm going to go nuts anyway, but yeah, let's talk about the first practice."
Bryan told Jimmy about the coach's expectations that were written down in the notice he sent to all the swimmers. "Coach is tough but very fair and you can always go and talk to him if something is going on with you."
"You mean if I'm having trouble with some of the workouts or the working out with the weights, I can go to Coach and talk to him about it", asked Jimmy.
"Coach will listen to you if you need to talk to him about the workouts and weight training, but you gotta work your butt off so he knows that you're really trying."
"What if Coach doesn't think I'm trying hard and I'm working my butt off, what do I do then?"
"Then you work even harder. I found out last year that when I thought I was doing my best, something in me made me work harder and I dropped my times every single meet. So, dude, you can do it. Just don't worry so much. It's going to be OK."
"I hope so", thought Jimmy. "I'm really nervous, but I'm also ready to start swimming. I just hope I don't pop a boner because...."
