Chapter 3 - The Aftermath

I woke up the next morning with Wills still holding me close. Looking at
the clock I realized how early it was, only 6:30. I was still tipsy; I
couldn't believe I drank so much.

One thought still ran through my head 'wills can't be gay?' 'he was very
drunk.' I decided to forget the whole night, well some of it anyway. With
that I slipped out of his bed and replaced my body with a spare pillow.

I stood there for what seemed an eternity, just looking at wills sleeping
peacefully.  He is sooooooo sexy when he is asleep, hell he is sexy all the
time. The only thing that brought me out of my trance was the slowly
emerging hangover headache. I could tell it was going to be a bad one. I
turned to my bed and laid down. So I was fast asleep again.

***

The next thing I new was wills shaking me awake. Still in a daze I flung my
legs over the side of the bed and slowly got up.

'Big night last night, ay.' Wills commented

'You could say that, can you remember anything?'

'The last thing I remember is walking past the bush with the people in
it. You?'

'Just as you started speaking to me, but then I'm a blank' but I new I
remembered the whole night. 'What time is it?'

'About 7:30, do you want to get some dinner, I'm starved.'

'Sure, just let me get changed' realizing I still had my suit on.

'Ye, me to'

So we both got changed and headed out to get some food. We ended up going
to a famous Chinese restaurant. The waiter at the front desk recognized
wills as soon as we entered the restaurant. We were seated in a corner
table and were given menus.

I leaned into wills and whispered to him.

'I think everyone is watching us?'

'That's the only problem being the heir to the throne. Just act normally.'

It was the weirdest meal I have ever had with every eye in the restaurant
watching us eat.

'Shit!' Wills said under his breath

'What?'

'Someone's tipped the press off, look.'

He was right about 20 reporters were surrounding the front of the
restaurant. I was amused that it was important to get a picture of wills at
a Chinese restaurant. But he was looking scared.  He had turned white and
was shaking lightly.

'I know how to get out of this.' He just nodded.

I got the bill from the waiter and paid. Then I grabbed wills hand and
inconspicuously moved to the rear exit. When we were in the ally we slowly
walked around the front of the liquor store two doors away from the mob of
reporters. Unfortunately some of them caught as walking toward Eton. As we
were looking back to see if any had noticed us, the flashes went off like
crazy. We just started to run and run we did.

By the time we got back to Eton we were spent and dripping wet. So we went
straight to the showers.

I got back into the room before wills. It 10:30 so I decided to go to
bed. Wills returned and we went to bed.

'Night wills'

'Night Nick, Sorry about last and calling you Ian all night we were only
joking.'

'I know wills you don't have to apologize, I don't mind.'

We were asleep within minutes.

***

'Good evening, This is the late report.

Earlier this evening Prince William spent dinner at Cho's Chinese
Restaurant, but he was not alone. It was reported that through out the meal
William and his unknown friend were seen holding hands and even a quick
peck on the cheek.

Then their attempt to avoid the media storm at the front of the restaurant
the exited the back exit and was seen walking away then started running as
a mob of reporters started to take photographs of the pair.'

The newsreader continued with the latest updates on world news.

'To recap Prince William seen spending a romantic evening with a male
school mate.' Then the credits rolled over the screen as Price Charles
turned off the TV.

Picking up the Phone and dialing the press managers number, ignoring the
fact that it was the middle of the night.

The Press manager was there within the hour and they talked about the news
report.




***

'wake up wills!!' I was shaking him fairly hard.

'Go away.'

'No you don't, your getting up right now'

'Mufffff, I coming just give me a sec.'

He slowly got up and I went to shower. I got into the shower and turned the
radio on and washed myself. The let the warmth of the water ease my tired
muscles from the run last night.

****

There was a knock on the door.

'Not again Nick, why can't you remember to take your key when you have a
shower?'

Wills got up and opened the door and was met with a very serious looking
Father.

'Sorry Father, I thought you were Nick, my room mate.'

'We have to talk William.' Wills invited is father into the room and
Charles to a set at wills' desk, wills sat on the bed facing his
father. 'William, what happened last night? Why were you at restaurant with
another male? The press have conjured up a story that you and a male friend
were fornicating at the restaurant.'

Wills was shocked; he was amazed that the press would go overboard like
that and he didn't even know what they had said he had done.

'Father, what exactly did the press say happened?'

'It was reported that you and your friend were holding hands and even a
kiss. Then you were seen running out of the back of the restaurant. I cam
here to hear you side of the story.'

'What happened was that; we wanted Chinese so we went down to Cho's. we
were siding in the back of the restaurant, then after dinner I saw the
reporters out side and Nick, the person I was eating with paid the bill and
we left out of the back door, went around the front 2 doors up and the
flashes went crazy so we just ran all the way back to Eton.'

***

I turned the water off and dried myself again wrapping the towel around my
waist, like I had been doing since I got here. I started to sing on the way
back to the room and as I approached there was a policeman standing by the
door.

As I tried to enter the room he stopped me.

'You can't go in there.'

'And why not, it is my room.'

'I still can't let you in sir.'

'It is my room you can't just not let me in, I'm in a fucking towel.'

'Sorry sir you are just going to have to wait.'

'Just fucking brilliant, how long am I going to have to wait?'

'I don't know sir.'

At that point the door opened and Prince Charles stepped out and spoke to
the Policeman.  The he spoke to me.

'So you're Nick, my sons room mate, why are you standing there in only a
towel?'

I was still extremely angry but I think I hid it well enough, 'well I just
had a shower and have been waiting to get into our room.'

'I'm sorry to inconvenience you, you may go in now I am going now.' With
that he left the building with the policeman. I steeped into the room and
wills was just lying on his bed.

'Did you have a nice chat with your father?'

'Ye, I hate the press, they twist things to suit themselves.'

'What happened?'

'The press made up a story that we were and Cho's as a couple, they made up
that we were holding hands throughout the meal and that you kissed me.'

I knew that we didn't do any of that, although I may have wanted to.

'So what is going to happen.'

'I don't know, I don't have to worry about it, father is going to take care
of everything.'

Next thing we new was John dragging us the local bowling center and we
spent the rest of the day bowling.

We arrived back to our room around 10 and wills went to have shower. I just
read a new book I had received in the mail from my parents. When wills
returned he sat on his bed.

'Nick I have to talk to you.'
