Did you go out and celebrate your new job last night ?" Millie said as Matt walked into the employee lounge to clock in for his first day of work. "No I just didn't sleep well last night." Matt said. "Man trouble huh ?" Millie said. "Excuse me ?" Matt said with a shocked look on his face. "You are gay aren't you ?" Millie asked. "Is it important ?" Matt asked. "Sunshine, Millie is never wrong. You don't act like it and most people would think you were a macho twat chaser, hell all the woman customers will want you to help them, but ole Millie is always right." Millie laughed. Millie was probably in her early seventies. The thick makeup tried but failed to hide the wrinkles and lines from what had probably been a tough life. She stood about five foot tall and may weigh one hundred pounds. The wig she wore needed to have been retired the day it was bought but had probably been worn by her for twenty years. There was no mistaking it was a wig due to the way it looked on her and plus you could see some of the netting . The smile she carried seemed even bigger than her. The manager had told Matt in his interview that Millie's smile and personality needed a ten foot body to house it but Millie shoved it all into a skinny five foot frame. "Got your driver's license sunshine ?" Millie asked. " Sure." Matt said. "Good. We need to go to the clinic and get your blood work done and I don't like driving much anymore." Millie said. On the way to the clinic the two chatted. Millie handed her car keys to Matt but he handed them back. "I don't mind driving mine." Matt said. Matt had a new Ford Explorer Limited. "Honey this is nicer than my house." Millie said as she ran her hands across the plush leather seats. "That's mine over there so just let me know when you want to trade. I think Belle would like you." Millie said. "Belle ?" Matt asked. "Yeah my baby." Millie said as she pointed to an old model Chevrolet S10 pickup. The truck was white but the driver's door was red. There were two shipping straps hooked from the hood to the bumper. "She is old and rough like me but she gets me to the VFW and home every Friday and Saturday night so she's a keeper." Millie said. The clinic was only a couple of miles from the store. Matt signed the forms agreeing to the tests requested and then forms allowing the release of information to his new employer. Matt wondered why certain things were being tested for. He had his own insurance so he had opted out of the company health insurance plan. Matt stood and signed the final forms at the receptionist inside when he heard Millie laughing. He thought he recognized Ty's voice but he figured he was just hearing things. When he stepped out into the lobby his heart stopped. Billy stood with his back to Matt with Ty and Millie facing him. "You feeling a little puny Brawny ?" Millie asked. "No me and toad stool have to have blood work done every six months for insurance." Billy laughed. "I didn't think they made a needle strong enough to break through that tough skin of yours." Millie said. "Hey Matt." Ty said. "Hey. How are you guys today ?" Matt said. Billy quickly turned and had a huge smile on his face. Matt smiled the best he could trying to cover up his current distaste for Billy. "So you have already met Sunshine then." Millie said. "Sunshine ? Why does he get sunshine and I get toad stool." Ty said trying to act upset. "Honey you know that Millie loves her toad stool. Sunshine fit him and toad stool fits you. You ever look at a toad stool ? They just seem to open up and blossom." Millie said. "Nice save Millie." Billie laughed. "Sunshine is going to be working with me." Millie said. "You got some roller skates ? You are going to need them to keep up with this one." Ty said. " Honey that cute wife of yours may not like you flirting with an old lady." Millie said and slapped Ty on the ass. "Me flirting ?" Ty laughed. "Alright Sunshine we are on the clock so got to scoot." Millie said and headed to the door. "Work calls." Matt said and quickly followed her. On the drive back Millie and Matt just chatted. Back in the store they were at the service desk in the main area they will work in. "Rule one. If they are male, have a walker, a cane, or a scooter, or appear over seventy they are mine. There will be more than plenty for you to choose from." Millie said. "I am not here to find a partner." Matt said and laughed. "Well you don't look like you have one already." Millie said. "How can you tell so much ?" Matt laughed. "Sunshine at my age you learn to read people. Especially men. If you were getting it like you would with a partner that tension in your neck and face would be gone. Take me for example. There may be craters on this pretty face but Millie gets all she wants." Millie said smiling. About that time a customer came up and Millie turned on the charm. Matt shadowed her to see how she dealt with the customer. The man seemed to be grumpy and frustrated when he walked up but by the time Millie was finished he was smiling and laughing. "How do you do that ?" Matt asked. "I enjoy my job. Dorothy on the registers has told me for years that she can tell when I help a customer and when one of these assholes helped them." Millie said and smiled. Millie carried him around the store to show him where everything was so that he could better help customers. There were a couple of customers that they passed and she would stop at an item near them and then just say "Nope" and they would move on. "What was that all about ?" Matt said. "Sunshine we need to tune in that gaydar thing you are suppose to have. I had to hear them talk to the associate for a minute but they were not right for you. We need to find you a premium one. Just stick with Millie and I will have you in the bed and smiling again before you know it." Millie said. The time seemed to fly and by Thursday Matt was so interested in learning the store and learning from Millie that he did not think about Billy that much. He had been left alone to deal with a few customers and Millie had praised him for his professionalism and also his ability to make the customer smile. He had to laugh a few times. "Better watch that one. I bet he's an ass grabber." Millie would say. After the second one touched his ass he didn't question her anymore. About two hours before time to go home on Thursday Millie and Matt were walking around their section of the store. "Now that is a prime one. I need to get you two together." Millie said. Matt turned and looked towards the far end of the isle. Billy stood talking to another associate. "Brawny is perfect for you." Millie said. "Why do you call him Brawny ?" Matt asked. "Sunshine you put him in a plaid shirt and put an axe in his hand he would put the brawny man to shame. Hell I would buy every roll I could find and wall paper my bedroom with that sexy man. " Millie said. "He has a girlfriend." Matt said. "The hell he does. To meet him you would never know it but you won't find him shopping for a date in linens and home decor. He does his shopping in the screws and studs department." Millie said. They both moved on before Billy saw them. Matt was tired when he made it home after his last shift for the week. He parked his SUV in the garage and walked around to see the work on the pool area. He was amazed at the rock work that had been done. The liner was almost complete and the pump and filter were set in place. Matt was thrilled with how it looked. The pool people had left and Billy and Ty were cleaning up the tools. "Hey Sunshine. What do you think ?" Billy said walking towards Matt. Matt did not realize he was doing it but his body stiffened as Billy approached. "It looks even better than I thought it would." Matt said and smiled. "We aim to please." Billy said. "In everything we do." Billy whispered when he was close enough and then winked. Matt followed Billy around the pool area and looked at the different items. "We will finish the stone work tomorrow. This will need to cure over the weekend. They will be here Monday to fill it with water and then after they check for leaks we will finish the plumbing and lighting on Tuesday. By next weekend you will be skinny dipping to your hearts content." Billy said. "Fuck, fuck, ffuucckk." Billy said as he shut the door to his truck. "What ?" Ty asked. "I thought he forgave me for the other day when he got knocked down. I guess not." Billy said. "Dude he just worked a ten hour shift on his feet the whole time. That place is busy as hell. He can't just sit down when he gets tired like we do. You ever think he just may be tired ?" Ty said. "Maybe so. I hope that's all." Billy said. Friday only Billy and Ty were there working. The pool company guys would not be back until the tanker delivered the water. Matt prepared breakfast again but still kept a little distance from Billy and Ty. Matt used the time to clean his house. Both men outside could see that he was sweeping, dusting and mopping. Matt prepared hamburgers for their lunch. Billy tried his best to flirt with Matt but seemed to not be getting anywhere. Matt had lightened up but will still not willing to get as close to Billy as he had before. When the day was finished Billy did not curse in the truck but was in a fowl mood. "Dude what is wrong with you today ?" Tye asked. "Just not a good day and this weekend already sucks." Billy said. "Dude Matt didn't kick you off the property and yes I saw you. He didn't slap your hand when you put your hand on his ass a couple of times." Ty said. "I could tell he wasn't pleased though." Billy said. "Dude you have only known each other about two weeks. You told me that steady wins the race. Take your own advice dude and chill out." Ty said. Matt enjoyed his lazy naked Saturday. He did not have to go back to work until Tuesday and there were no construction workers in the back yard. For the first time since this had started he was able to walk out in his back yard naked and realize how much he was going to enjoy the pool and back yard. Matt had settled on the couch and found a series on Netflix. About half way through the first show his cell phone rang. "Hello ?" Matt said with reserve. He did not recognize the number. "Hey Matt this is Ty." came over the phone. "Hey Ty. What's up ?" Matt asked. "Dude I hate to ask you for a favor but I don't know what else to do." Ty said. Matt was prepared for a request to borrow money. "If I can help I will. What's going on ?" Matt asked. "Me and the old lady are planning to take Billy out for his birthday if we can find a babysitter. He doesn't seem to be doing well and I may need you to help talk him down a little if he gets worse." Ty said. "When is his Birthday ?" Matt asked. "Today. He turns forty today and it is really getting to him. His sister usually takes him out every year but she is out of town for work. So she took him out to eat the other night." Ty said. "His sister ?" Matt asked. "Yeah a tall red head. Real looker." Ty said. "Oh fuck." Matt said. "What ?" Ty said. "I saw them at the restaurant. He kissed her on the lips so I thought it was his date." Matt said. "Fuck me. That is why both of you have acted like you have had a corn cob shoved up your asses all week." Ty said. "I just assumed." Matt said. "He didn't introduce you ?" Ty said. "They didn't see me." Matt said. "The old lady is on the phone trying to get a sitter. I may not need any help with him but if it gets tough can I get some help from you ?" Ty said. "Sure I will be glad to help in any way. If your wife is comfortable with me watching your children I will be glad to babysit. I have a lot of experience in that department." Matt said. "We only have one and she is nine months old so we have to have a diaper ready sitter." Ty said. "Believe me, diapers do not scare me." Matt laughed. "Hold on a minute." Ty said. Matt could hear him talking muffled in the back ground. "Are you sure you don't mind ?" Ty said. "I would love to if your wife trusts me with her baby." Matt said. "Dude you are a life saver. I told her I trust you and that was all she needed." Ty said. "I don't have any toys but if you bring her favorite ones she and I will have a great time." Matt said. Ty talked to Matt for about five minutes and then another five minutes to his wife. He found out her name was not old lady but Krystal. By the end of the conversation any reserves she had about Matt were long gone. Matt was pleased because it had been a long time since he was in charge of an infant. He babysat many times for his ex business partner and his wife and enjoyed every minute of it. The little bundle of joy was named Ashton. They told Matt they would be there around six. They planned to go to eat locally so they would only be gone maybe and hour and half. A little after six a small red SUV came down the drive. Matt had dressed around five thirty just to make sure he was not caught off guard. Ty and Krystal brought Ashton into the house with her half a SUV load of supplies. "You feel like you have to pack for a week for just a couple of hours." Krystal said. Matt and Krystal hit it off instantly. Ashton took to Matt even faster. She laughed and giggled as he rubbed her hand through Matt's close cut beard. "I promise we won't be long. He was just having such a hard time and he is good to us so I had to do something." Ty said. "This little doll and I will be just fine so take your time." Matt said. It was about a quarter til eight and just getting dark when he saw head lights top the hill headed towards his house. "Baby girl I guess they aren't going to let me keep you." Matt said and leaned over and kissed her forehead. His smile turned to concern when he saw Ty and Krystal standing in front of the vehicle arguing. Krystal smiled but Matt could tell she was disturbed when they entered the house. "Are you ready to be rescued ?" Ty said with a laugh. "She is a doll. I was hoping you would forget to come get her." Matt said. "I wish someone would rescue me." Krystal said. "Baby I am sorry. I don't know what else to do." Ty said as he reached for the diaper bag. "It's non of my business but is everything alright ?" Matt asked. "Billy is drunk as a skunk and Ty says he has to go home with us." Krystal said. "Drunk ?" Matt asked. "Yeah fortieth birthdays freak him out and now he is drunk as can be." Ty said. "Does he do that often ?" Matt asked. "I have known Billy for probably eight years. A six pack of beer will last him a month or longer." Ty said. "Well it didn't tonight." Krystal said as she took the smiling baby from Matt. "Is he that freaked out about turning forty ?" Matt asked. "It's a long story." Ty said. "Do you mind ?" Matt asked pointing towards the great room. "Go ahead. I could use the peace if he has to go home with us." Krystal said. Ty told Matt the story of forty. Apparently Billy' s Mom was two days older than his Dad. They picked the day in the middle to carry themselves out to eat. They were out to celebrate their fortieth birthday's and a drunk semi driver ran over their car and killed them both. Two years later his father's brother was at a restaurant in Chicago to celebrate his fortieth birthday and was kileed by a stray bullet in a gang fight drive by shooting. By this point Matt's heart was sinking into the couch for Billy. "Was he drunk when you picked him up ?" Matt asked. "No. We sat down to eat and he ordered a drink. I could tell that he had maybe had a beer earlier but I didn't think anything about it. He got up a couple of times and went to the bar." Ty said. " A couple ? Six times." Krystal said. "Alright he got up six times. When I got the bill I almost choked. He was going to the bar and getting double shots. He didn't eat the first bite of his supper." Ty said. "Yeah and it is in a carry out. That is what you will have for supper all week." Krystal said. "Was it that bad ?" Matt asked. "Dude is over eighty fucking dollars for our meals and his drinks." Ty said. "Yeah that was your grocery money for this week." Krystal said. "Krystal baby I will get it out of him when he finds out what he did." Ty said. "No you won't. We will survive." Krystal said. "Wait right here." Matt said and jumped and went into his bedroom. Matt appeared back in the great room as they were gathering the babies items. "Here take this." Matt said handing Krystal a one hundred dollar bill. "We can't take that. Hell we owe you for babysitting too." she said giving Ty a stern look. "I should pay you for letting me keep her. She was a joy. She is really a happy baby." Matt said. "She does seem happy. Usually when we get a babysitter she is fussy when we get her." Krystal said. Matt reached over and took the smiling baby from Krystal. "She and her Uncle Matt had a good time didn't we ?" Matt said kissing the little girl on the neck. The scruff of his short cut beard caused the little girl to squirm and squeal in laughter. "Take this money and you can also leave Billy here." Matt said. "We can't do either. You just started a new job yourself." Ty said. "I took that job to get me out of the house for three days a week. I assure you it was not for the money. It would take me ten years of paycheck just to pay for that pool out back." Matt said. Matt still held Ashton but reached over and stuffed the bill inside the diaper bag. "This is just between the four of us." Matt said. "You are a God send." Krystal said. "Now let's get him inside." Matt said. "We can take him with us. I can tolerate his drunk ass for one night." Krystal said. "My house, my rules. Let's get him inside and when he is sober enough to tell me where he lives I will take him home." Matt said. "That won't be tonight dude." Ty said. "I have two empty bedrooms and a couch. He will be fine." Matt said. "Ty come get your boss. He got out of the car to take a piss and fell over while he was pissing. I am not dealing with that one." Krystal said.
