Date: Tue, 22 Jan 2013 12:18:39 +0000 From: Adam Stewart Subject: Life of Adam - part 13 This is a gay love story based partly on fact with fiction and fantasy added for good measure but the characters have been changed and are fictional. Warning - it contains explicit m/m sex. Life of Adam 13. On the Friday whilst all three of them were busy working at Michael and David's house, David suddenly came upstairs to say there was a telephone call for Adam. It was a Ward Sister from the London Hospital. Adam rushed down the stairs and took the call. Having checked who he was, the caller said that Roger had been admitted into hospital late the previous night and that since Adam was his only relative, could he come to the hospital since he was asking for him. Adam was stunned and tears immediately started running down his face. David put a comforting arm round him having partly listened to the conversation. When Adam relayed what the hospital had said, David said he would get Charles to take him to the hospital in the Rolls. "You're in no fit state to drive" he told Adam as he went to find Charles. Adam went upstairs to tell Henry who said immediately that he would go with Adam. They quickly washed and changed out of their overalls leaving Tim to continue with what he was doing. Michael had come up by this time and told them not to worry about the job but instead go and see what had happened to Roger. As they left, Adam told Tim to finish what he was doing and drive the van back to the Mews where they'd see him later. Charles drove Adam and Henry to the hospital and having thanked Charles for the lift they ran into the reception area to find out where Roger's ward was situated. They almost ran all the way until they found it and Adam introduced himself to the Ward Sister who'd called him. She wouldn't tell him much other than to say that Roger was not at all well and had asked specifically to see his cousin. Adam didn't make any comment guessing that Roger had his reasons for telling a white lie about Adam's relationship with him. When they walked into the room where Roger was lying in bed, Adam was shocked at what he saw. He couldn't believe how much Roger had changed in the twenty four hours since he'd kissed him goodbye at the house. "Hello my love" Adam said with tears flowing down his face. He bent forward to kiss Roger and wanted to take him into his arms since he looked so ill and drawn. He sat down beside the bed and took hold of Roger's hand not knowing what else to say. Henry sat down on the other side and the Ward Sister said she'd leave them alone but said not to tire Roger out too much. Adam asked what had happened and Roger explained that he had been diagnosed several weeks ago with cancer of the pancreas. "Why didn't you tell me?" Adam asked squeezing Roger's hand. "I didn't want to worry you; besides, there's little they can do so what was the point." Adam said there must be something the doctors could do but Roger shook his head. Henry, who seemed more in control, asked what the prognosis was. Roger said the doctors had given him a few more weeks. On hearing this, Adam burst into floods of tears and sobbed his heart out. He couldn't envisage being without Roger who'd been his mentor and in his eyes always would be. It just wasn't possible that he would lose him now just when everything was going so well for him and Henry. Roger patted his hand and told him he had to be brave. He then pulled Henry's hand towards Adam's and held them together. He turned to Henry and made him promise that he'd always look after Adam. Henry nodded trying to hold back the tears. He knew how fond Adam was of Roger and knew he'd be a terrible loss. "I will" Henry almost whispered as the tears eased their way out of his eyes. "There's something else I need to tell you Adam" Roger then said as he clasped their hands together. He then explained that since he no longer had any family, his parents having died several years ago and his one and only brother being killed in the war, he had nobody to leave his worldly possessions to so he had written into his will that his house, the Mews flat, his personal possessions and the majority of his money was to be left to Adam. "I've also left a small amount of money to you Henry" he said looking at him but I want to die knowing that you two will continue to love each other and enjoy life to the full. Adam hardly heard the words being said. He was distraught at the thought of losing the person he loved like a father despite the small age gap between them. Roger had always been there for him and provided advice when he needed it. He'd also of course, enabled him to start his own business and make it such a success. Henry took everything in and knew that Adam would need tremendous support once Roger had gone. Roger was now saying that he would like to think that Adam and Henry would go to live in the house rather than sell it. Adam did take that in and immediately said he'd never sell it since he loved the house. After a while, the Ward Sister returned and said Roger should be allowed to rest. Adam asked if he could stay and knowing how ill Roger was, she agreed but said that only one at a time must remain. Henry said he'd go home and explain to Tim what had happened leaving Adam to stay. He would return later that evening to give Adam a break but he knew Adam would want to remain with Roger for as long as he could. Henry took the tube home and found Tim sitting in the living room. He looked at Henry and immediately knew the news was not good. Henry explained the situation and Tim immediately took Henry into his arms. "Poor Adam, he must be distraught" Tim said as he caressed Henry. Later in the evening after they'd managed to eat something, Tim went back to his bedsit and Henry made his way to the hospital again. Tim offered to accompany him but they decided there was little point since only one at a time could see Roger and Adam would want to remain for as long as he could. Henry entered Roger's room and sat beside Adam holding his hand for a while. Roger was sleeping so Henry tried to persuade Adam to go and get something to eat whilst he stayed but Adam wouldn't hear of it and just sat there looking at Roger. "I can't believe it" Adam whispered, "he seemed so healthy not long ago". Henry put an arm round his lover and held him tight. There was nothing he could say to make things better. Adam placed his head onto Henry's shoulder and silently sobbed. Just before the official visiting hour was due to end, Roger came to and smiled at them. Adam immediately took hold of his hand and squeezed it. Even in the few hours he'd been sitting there he had the feeling that Roger was getting weaker and weaker. Eventually a nurse came in and said they must leave. Adam tried to persuade her to let him stay but she said it was better for Roger if he had rest and they would call him immediately if his condition worsened over night but he could come again the following morning. Reluctantly Adam left with Henry and they made their way back to the Mews. Henry phoned Michael and David since he'd promised to do so earlier when they left. Michael was shocked to hear the news and asked if there was anything he could do to help. Henry said there was little anyone could do at present but he'd call if there was anything. A little later, Tim came back to see how things were. On seeing how sad Adam was he hugged and kissed him and tried to console him. Finally Tim left again and Adam and Henry went to bed. They held each other tight and told each other they loved one another before slipping off to sleep although Adam was awake most of the night waiting for the hospital to call. By the early hours he was so tired that he sank into a deep sleep. When Henry woke he was still sleeping but he knew that Adam would want to get back to the hospital as soon as he could so he gently woke him. They looked at each other and hugged. The nurse on duty told them that Roger had slept most of the night which was good. What she didn't tell them was that he'd been given a sleeping draught to put him out to dull the pain. Roger smiled weakly when Adam and Henry walked in. Having both kissed Roger, Adam sat down beside the bed again and held his hand. Fortunately it was Saturday so they had no work to worry about. Henry said he'd go and do some food shopping since they were running out of things and come back later. He decided Adam would prefer to be on his own with Roger and there seemed little point in both of them sitting there for hours just looking at each other. Around lunchtime Henry returned to the hospital having done the shopping, updated Tim on the situation and called Michael again. He'd brought with him a sandwich for Adam since he knew he'd never go and get something to eat otherwise. When he reached the room, Adam was trying to persuade Roger to sip some soup but he seemed to have little interest in food. Henry looked at Roger and smiled as he sat down beside Adam again. Roger smiled weakly at him but Henry could see he was fading rapidly. Apart from leaving for a moment to use the toilet, Adam insisted on staying beside Roger all the time. Henry left and returned again later for the evening visiting hour. The nursing staff just let Adam sit beside Roger since they knew it wasn't long now. When Henry walked into the room, Roger was motionless and for a moment he thought the end had come but having held his hand he realised he was still just about alive. Adam held Roger's hand as if it was the last thing he'd ever do. In no way would he let go. The visiting hour went by but the nurse didn't tell them to leave. Instead they suggested that Henry sit outside and leave Adam to be with Roger. Henry looked at Adam and he gave a slight nod. "I'll be just outside if you need me my love" Henry said quietly to Adam and patted his shoulder. Adam just nodded and continued looking at Roger. The hours seemed to drag by and every so often Henry looked into the room to see if Adam wanted a break but he wouldn't move. It was around midnight that Henry woke out of an uncomfortable sleep in the chair he was sitting in to find a slight commotion going on. He heard Adam wailing inside the room so immediately jumped up and went inside. A nurse and a doctor were attending to Roger whilst Adam stood just inside the door. Henry took him into his arms and hugged him. "I'm sorry Mr Thomson" the doctor was saying, "I'm afraid he's gone". The doctor left the room and the nurse said she'd leave them with Roger for a few moments. Adam was crying his eyes out looking at Roger who was now lying motionless with his eyes closed. He looked at peace with no sign of pain as Henry bent forward and kissed his forehead to say goodbye. Eventually Adam did the same and Henry led Adam out of the room. On the way out Henry briefly spoke to the nurse in charge and said they'd be back in the morning to deal with the necessary administrative things that had to be done at such times. Adam walked out in Henry's arms like a zombie. He couldn't believe that he'd lost his wonderful friend. Somehow, Henry got Adam home and got him to bed. He was so tired that he fell asleep almost immediately. This time it was Henry who had little sleep wondering what things had to be done when someone died. In the morning, Henry called Michael and David to tell them the sad news. They were heartbroken since Roger had been a long term friend of theirs. Michael told Henry to bring Adam back to their house once they'd been to the hospital so they could discuss the arrangements that had to now be organised. Michael also felt it would be good for Adam to get away from home for a while so told Henry they could stay for a night or two if they wished. Adam was still operating on auto pilot and just watched Henry gather together their toiletries and a few clothes. Tim came round just before they were due to leave and Henry told him the news. Once Tim had hugged Adam they made their way to the hospital using the van. Tim said he'd get himself to the Mayfair house the following morning although quite what work would be done he didn't know. Once they'd collected the necessary paperwork from the hospital and gathered together Roger's personal items they made their way to Michael and David's house in Mayfair. When they arrived, Michael hugged Adam and tried to console him. "I'm so sorry Adam, Roger was a very dear friend and I know you were very fond of him" Adam just nodded as more tears ran down his face. They sat down and discussed what to do next and Michael said he'd go with Adam to the Registrar and help him with the funeral arrangements. David called the Registrar's office and a funeral director they'd used before and managed to obtain an appointment that afternoon. It was agreed that Michael and Adam would go on their own so Charles drove them in the Rolls. Having registered the death and seen the funeral director they drove back to the house. Adam was still in a daze. He still couldn't believe that Roger was no longer with them. "I shall miss him so much" Adam sobbed later when they were all sitting round looking at each other. "He loved you very much Adam, you know that don't you, but he never wanted to do anything to upset your relationship with Henry because he knew that was so strong. He was so appreciative that you could share you love and stay with him every week. He often talked about how he looked forward to you going to stay with him so you made him a very happy man" Michael said. Adam nodded. He knew Roger was madly in love with him but he also knew that he'd never love him as much as he loved Henry. Even so, he was extremely fond of Roger and would miss him terribly. The next few days seemed to pass without Adam really knowing what was happening. Everybody was wonderful and life continued round him. On the Monday, Henry went with Tim to the other job they had on and got him organised. He did a bit more in the Mayfair house but Adam's input was needed and he was in no fit state to do anything just yet. David told him not to worry about their job for the time being so Henry concentrated on the other job. Fortunately there was a lot of carpentry work to do there so Tim was kept busy and Henry started basic preparation work. The funeral was held the following week. Adam and Michael had gone back to Roger's house to collect his address book and David did most of the calling to give people the news and details of the funeral arrangements. Almost a hundred people turned up at the church and Adam couldn't believe how many people were there. He'd no idea that Roger was so well known and loved. Hoards of people came up to him afterwards to give him their condolences assuming he was a relative of some kind. Other friends Adam had met came up and hugged him and kissed him. Michael and David had organised a reception back at the house for about fifty people and Adam just watched as it all went on round him. Henry was wonderful and kept an eye on his partner at all times. Finally, when it was all over, Adam decided that it was time to go home. Over the next few days he would visit Roger's house whilst Henry was at work and just walk from room to room. He sat down in each remembering particular things that he and Roger had done and in most cases sobbed his heart out. Each day he'd go back home feeling exhausted. After about three weeks he decided he needed to make an important decision. He spoke to the solicitor who was handling Roger's estate and asked if it was okay for him and Henry to move into the house. The solicitor said it was since the will was very clear and all the property had been left to Adam so there was no problem with him moving in. He also arranged for a small amount of money to be transferred into Adam's account so that he could pay the general household expenses until everything had been finalised. When he told Adam the overall value of the property and Roger's investments, he was staggered. He would be a rich man and he was only twenty nine. When Henry got home that evening they discussed moving into Roger's house. "I'm happy to do so, but are you sure you want to?" Henry asked. "I've always loved that house and being there will remind me of the happy times that Roger and I had together, so yes, I am quite sure it's what I want to do." With that agreed, they decided to hold a dinner party there on the next Friday and invite Tim since Adam had also made other decisions regarding him. They told Tim to arrive around seven and said he could stay over if he wanted. On the dot of seven Tim arrived and Adam welcomed him into the drawing room. It felt odd doing this but Adam enjoyed being the host. When they were all sitting down and Henry had passed round pre-dinner drinks, Adam asked Tim whether he was still happy with what he was doing in the business. Tim immediately looked apprehensive. He lacked confidence in himself and was worried that he hadn't met the standards that Adam expected. "Don't look so worried" Adam smiled, "I just want to make sure you like what you do and you're happy before giving you some news". Tim relaxed and said he loved the work and he loved working for Adam and Henry. Adam then told Tim that he and Henry were very pleased with how he'd progressed and even though there was much more to learn, he'd passed the initial stage of his apprenticeship and as such his pay was to be increased. Tim beamed and nearly jumped across the room to hug Adam. "There's something else I want to tell you" Adam continued stopping Tim in his tracks. He then told Tim that he and Henry were moving into Roger's house so that meant the Mews flat would be available if he wanted to move in there. "It's up to you Tim" Adam added before Tim had time to reply, "but if you do decide you'd like to live there we will have the same arrangement that I had with Roger regarding a nominal rent. Tim gasped and when Adam told him the rent he'd be paying he realised it was almost the same as he was paying for his bedsit. He immediately accepted and this time he did jump across to where Adam and Henry were sitting and knelt between their legs. He hugged and kissed them saying how much he'd love to live in the Mews flat and how much he loved his job. Adam and Henry just smiled and let him get over his excitement. "There's one other thing" Henry then added. Tim looked at him wondering what else there could be. Henry then explained that since Adam had inherited Roger's Rover, which had hardly been used so had very few miles on the clock, they would use that in future so Tim could take over the small van and have it for his own use as well as the business. "The running costs will still be covered by the business" Henry explained, but said all Tim had to do was pay for any petrol he used for private use. Tim held his hands up to his face and gasped. He couldn't believe what these two wonderful guys were doing for him. He hugged and kissed each of them again and tears of joy ran down his face. Finally, Henry said it was time to eat so they all went into the dining room and Henry served them a wonderful meal. Afterwards, they sat in the drawing room chatting about everything under the sun. Sex often entered the conversation but nothing took place. That night, Adam and Henry used one of the guest rooms and Tim used another. Roger's things were still in the master bedroom so that was the next job to sort out. The following morning, the three of them set to and cleared Roger's bedroom of his clothes and personal effects. It was a beautiful room and Adam loved it. He had many happy memories of Roger in this room so had no qualms about using it with Henry. As they sorted through the wardrobe they came across a framed photograph of Roger. It had been taken just before Adam came to know him but the pose showed Roger off perfectly. He was dressed in slacks with an open necked shirt which showed off his chest. Adam loved it and decided to hang it on the wall opposite the bed so he could look at it every morning when he woke up. Adam also had a framed photograph of Henry that Robin had taken of him during their stay in Hertfordshire. This showed a bare-chested Henry with his overalls round his waist and adopting a somewhat sexy pose. Adam loved it so he decided he'd hang that alongside the picture of Roger. By early afternoon, they'd cleared the house of everything that they didn't require and bagged it up ready to be collected by a charity shop. Adam loved Roger's choice of furniture and the decor, which he'd done when he first met him so, apart from a few minor changes in how furniture was positioned, he kept everything much the same. They then went back to the Mews and collected their clothes and personal items. Tim used his newly acquired van to move the decorating equipment from the garage beneath the flat and took it all to the house where they stored it in a brick built extension to the garage at the back of the property. The garage was accessed via a Mews behind the houses so was ideal. It seemed that at some point in time someone had built a workshop on the back of the garage so this was ideal once they'd cleaned it out and rearranged things. Tim then left them to go back to his bedsit to break the news to his landlady. She rather liked Tim and found him to be the perfect tenant so he knew she would be somewhat upset to lose him. However, when he told her the news she fully understood since she had known Roger for many years and had always admired his kindness and generosity. Adam had given Tim money to pay her a month's rent in lieu of notice. At first she said there was no need in the circumstances but Tim insisted saying that it was Adam who'd given him the money. "You're a very luck lad" she smiled as she accepted the money, "Adam sounds just as kind and generous as Roger was". Tim said he was and had much to thank Adam for since he had turned his life round. He then went to his room and packed his clothes and personal items ready to move into the Mews the next day after Adam and Henry had given the place a good clean. He couldn't wait to get into his new home and have more space. Back at the house, Adam and Henry had placed their clothes in the master bedroom and scattered their other belongings round the house. Adam decided to use the box room as his office in the same way as Roger had done. There was already a telephone line installed so all he had to do was have new stationery and business cards printed with his new address and telephone number. Once everything was in place, he and Henry toured the house to admire it. "I can't believe all this is ours" Adam commented as they moved from room to room. As they did so, Adam made a mental note to arrange a meeting with the solicitor to have a will of his own drawn up. It seemed nothing in this life could be left to chance and he wanted his love to inherit everything from him should the worse happen. Henry cooked a wonderful meal for them that evening and this time they ate at the large table in the kitchen. Adam loved this space and knew they'd spend many a time eating in there instead of the dining room which would probably only be used when they had friends for dinner. "To us" Henry said holding up his glass of wine. He'd found a wine store beneath the stairs which had ample supplies of different wines. "To us" Adam repeated and then blew a kiss to Henry, "Thank you for everything over the past few weeks" he then added, "I couldn't have got through it all without you". Henry smiled and patted Adam's hand, "It's what lovers do for each other in times of need" he said before bending over to give Adam a kiss. When the meal was over and they'd cleared up, Adam led Henry by the hand upstairs. They removed their silk robes they'd donned earlier and got on the bed. Henry lay on his back and Adam climbed on top of him. They kissed and hugged for several minutes until they were both fully erect. Henry lifted his legs round Adam's waist and he then fingered Henry with lube. Having lubricated his own cock, he slowly pushed it into the yielding hole. "Mm that feels so nice" Henry groaned as he felt Adam's long hard organ slowly invade him, "I so love your cock up my arse" he grinned. "And it feels good to have it up your arse" Adam grinned in reply as he gradually increased the pace. They hadn't had sex for so long that they were both desperate for it. As such Adam soon released the load that had been pent up inside his balls for so long. "Yeah, fill me up" Henry giggled as he felt the hot cum start to spew out inside him. Once Adam had satisfied his own needs, Henry flipped him over and did the same to him. He wanted to feel his cock inside Adam even though he was usually satisfied being fucked by him. "Yes, fuck me" Adam cried out loud, "fuck me, fuck me" he shouted again as he glanced over to the photograph of Roger on the wall ahead. He knew Roger would approve if he was watching over them and it made him feel good. The following morning they went round to the Mews and found Tim already waiting in the van. He'd been so keen to get in that he'd emptied his room as soon as he was awake and driven the short distance. He'd even had time to give his room a thorough clean since he wanted to leave it spotless before giving the key to his landlady. The three of them then set to and cleaned the Mews, not that it was that dirty but Adam and Henry wanted Tim to have everything perfect. Once done, Adam gave Tim the keys and they kissed and hugged. "We'll see you tomorrow at Michael and David's" Adam said as they left Tim to enjoy his new home. Before they drove off, they knocked on Sue and Jim's door opposite to say that Tim was now living at the flat and they were moving into Roger's house. "You'll now have a new cock to look at" Henry told Jim, once they'd hugged and kissed. "Mm, from the little I've seen so far I think we'll enjoy that" Jim replied laughing, "Do you think Tim would like a threesome with Sue and me?" "You'll have to ask him" Adam replied. With that Adam and Henry drove off in their smart Rover and went back home. Once they were inside, they stripped off and made love. It was just perfect. Eventually the upstairs was finished at Michael and David's house and they asked Adam to do the downstairs. They loved the work done so knew they'd be happy with having the two reception rooms decorated and the hallway and stairs. It took another month to complete the job alongside another smaller job Adam had obtained and when it was done, Michael toured each room with Adam and an arm round his waist. He then announced that he would like the three of them to come to their house in Surrey to do some more work. He told Adam not to bother going down beforehand to measure up but instead calculate what was needed when they got down there. He said he'd accept whatever price Adam told him since he knew Adam wouldn't overcharge. He was more interested in having a good job done and he knew he would get that with these lads. David was excited when he heard the news since he'd have the young lads around for several more weeks. Having got rough measurements from Michael, Adam had calculated that it would take a good six weeks so it was agreed they'd spend two months staying at the house with Michael and David. The plan was that they'd go down mid July. In the meantime Adam and Henry had two other jobs to complete before they left London for two months. They just about finished the jobs before they departed having told other customers they'd have to wait until almost the end of September but they were happy to do so. The day they travelled down, with Adam driving the Rover and Tim following on behind in the van with the equipment, the sun shone all the way. The weather had suddenly turned for the better and they all hoped it would stay like that for the rest of the summer. Michael had already said they spent all their time naked and sunbathed in the nude so they looked forward to doing the same. The house was situated just south of Guildford on the outskirts of a tiny village. It was set in its own grounds so the nearest neighbour was a good half mile or so away. Adam could see how Michael and David along with the two guys, who looked after the house and garden for them, could do what they wanted without upsetting any neighbours. As soon as they had parked up, the front door opened and Quentin, who managed the house, came out to greet them. He was thirty but looked younger. Apart from a pair of plimsolls, all he was wearing was a black apron. Having introduced himself and welcomed the three arrivals, he led them into the house. When he turned to go inside, the other three admired the naked butt that was now on show. It was truly beautiful. "I take it you know that the mode of dress here is no clothes" Quentin grinned once they were inside. Adam said he had heard that was the case and it didn't worry him, Henry or Tim. "So you know that Michael and David want you to work in the nude then" Quentin added grinning. Adam hadn't quite realised that but said he saw no problem having looked at Henry and Tim who just grinned. "I understand you know Michael and David fairly well so you're aware of their sexual antics." The three of them nodded as Quentin led them upstairs and showed them which room Adam and Henry would be sleeping in before showing Tim his. "Once you've settled in and of course stripped off, come downstairs and you'll find Michael and David in the garden sunbathing" Quentin said as he left them. "Mm, did you realise we'd be working in the nude?" Henry asked once they were unpacking their things. "Nope, but it doesn't surprise me" Adam laughed, "It should be a laugh though". Henry agreed and rather enjoyed the idea of having young Timothy round him naked all the time! Having unpacked and collected a naked Tim from his room, the three of them set off downstairs to find Michael and David. As soon as they walked out into the garden where they were laying naked enjoying the sunshine, Michael jumped up to greet them. "Hello my darlings" he said, "Come and give me a hug and let me have a feel" he giggled. As he kissed and hugged each of them he grabbed the limp organs between their legs. "Oh, I'm so going to enjoy looking at these for the next two months and having a good feel whenever I get the urge" he giggled. "Yeah, and knowing you that urge will be with you permanently so I hope you guys realise you'll have permanent erections whilst you're here" David announced as he came over and did the same to each of them. By this time Quentin had appeared carrying a tray of drinks and sandwiches which he placed on a low table situated in the middle of a circle of seven garden chairs. "Where's Donald" Michael asked Quentin, "Tell him to stop work and come and join us for lunch. I want him to meet these three gorgeous hunks so he can decide who he wants to fuck him first". David raised his eyebrows as if to say `what do you do with him' but he was well used to his partner's openness when it came to sex. Soon after, another young guy appeared who the others later found out was twenty five. He too was stark naked. He was introduced as Quentin's boyfriend to the new arrivals and they all eyed each other up and down. Like Quentin, he was truly beautiful. Once everyone was settled and Quentin had passed round glasses of wine and they'd selected sandwiches from the large platter, Michael told him to remove his apron. "We all want to see that lovely cock of yours Quentin so get the fucking apron off" he giggled. Quentin duly obliged and sat down. He sure was big and the others looked at the gorgeous organ as they enjoyed their lunch. ___________________________________________________________________________ The next chapter of 'Life of Adam' will be available shortly.
