Book & Tommy
38 -- Final Chapter

Everyone pushed back from the table and exited the courtroom in silence.
Book stepped out into the hallway first and stepped to the side.  Bray
stepped out and took his place by Book's side, his arm around Book's waist.
As Kinsey and the boys approached, Book immediately asked them if they had
to pee since time was ticking by before they had to be back in the
courtroom.

"If you gentlemen need the restroom, there is one located on the other side
of the corridor intersection," Sam announced pointing down the relatively
empty hallway.

"Thank you, Sam," Book said.  "Bray why don't you take the boys to the
restroom and I'll wait here for you guys.  I want to pick Sam's brain for a
minute."

Bray nodded his head and collected the boys and Kinsey walked over and
stood next to Pam.

As Bray and the boys headed down the hallway to the restrooms, Bray asked,
"So, how are you guys feeling right now?"

"This whole process is actually quite fascinating," Tommy spoke up.  I have
been studying the judge closely.  Not once have I seen her react adversely
to any question we have answered; not even the slightest arch of an
eyebrow.  She is quite non-reactionary and difficult to read.  Her only
negative response was to dad speaking Spanish; that pissed her off."

"For me," Alex said, "She kind of scared me when she first entered the
courtroom, but after we were talking for a while, I felt better."

"What about you, Bray? What do you think?" Tommy asked as they arrived at
the restroom.

Bray pushed the door open and waited to see if the room was occupied before
he answered Tommy's question.  Just like the first restroom, this one
looked exactly like the first.  There were two urinals, one stall, and the
same hex tiles on the floor.  Bray stepped up to the first urinal and Alex
and Tommy shared the second.

Bray unzipped, hauled out his cock, and turned slightly towards the boys
who were in the process of unzipping.  "To answer your question, Tommy,
overall, I kind of like her.  I think she will be fair with us. I'm hopeful
anyway," he told the boys with a smile looking down as they held their
respective dicks in their hand.

Alex looked down at Bray's dick and licked his lips.  "I wish we had time
for me to suck you guys off," Alex said.

"Unfortunately, we don't have time for that, stud; however, we have a
little time for something else if you want," Bray said coyly.

Alex gave him a big smile and bent over taking Brays cock knob in his mouth
much to Tommy's surprise.

Well within the allotted amount of time given to them by the judge,
everyone congregated around the courtroom door waiting to be scanned again
by the bailiff before being permitted to enter the courtroom.  As they
ambled into the courtroom, they each took exactly the same seat.

Barney, the bailiff, was standing guard at the door of the courtroom and
Marcy, the court recorder, had her face buried in her book again.  Promptly
at 11:30, the short bailiff walked into the courtroom and approached the
pony wall.

"Docket Number L-9301-428 is now back in session.  The honorable Gloria
Bayne, presiding.  Please remain seated and come to order."

The judge stepped back into the courtroom as the bailiff made his
announcement.  She walked over to the desk and placed her manilla folder
down on the desk and took her seat.

"The court would like to thank everyone for their promptness; it is greatly
appreciated," she announced.

"Let's proceed.  Mr. Booker, I have a copy of a visitation request,
submitted by your council, Mr. Sam Brooks, to see Alex's biological father,
Umberto Estrada.  Less than 48 hours later, the visitation request was
withdrawn, again by your council, Mr. Sam Brooks.  Can you elaborate about
this request and subsequent withdrawal please?" the judge asked Book.

"Yes, of course.  When we were notified by Mr. Brooks that Umberto
submitted a letter of protest, for the lack of a better term, regarding us
(Bray & I) being granted custody of Alex, as you can imagine, we were
extremely distressed by the news.  Alex was especially upset about it and
became very emotional.  Alex came to me in a bit of a state and asked me to
take him to see his father.  He told me that he was going to beg his father
to retract the letter.

I was able to calm Alex down and told him that I would contact Sam because
at the time, I had no idea how to submit the visitation request.  I called
Sam and he took care of it on my behalf.  I also told Sam that I did not
want Umberto to have any physical contact with Alex."

"Why was that, Mr. Booker?" the judge interrupted.

"I was afraid for Alex.  I have only met Umberto one time and it did not go
well; however, I knew about the physical and emotional abuse that Alex
experienced with his father because Alex told me about it.  In my personal
opinion, I considered Umberto to be a hostile man. I did not want him to
have physical contact with Alex because I was concerned that Umberto could
hurt him."

"I see," the judge said, "Please continue, Mr. Booker."

"When Sam told me that there would be a solid partition between Alex and
Umberto, I was relieved.  The next day, I believe it was the next day, Alex
came to me again.  Once again, he was extremely upset and emotional.  He
was having second thoughts about seeing his father.  Personally, I was
relieved.  I did not want Alex to see his father in the first place.  Alex
and I talked and decided to call the visitation off.  I immediately called
Sam and asked him to withdraw the request."

"Mr. Nash," the judge addressed Bray, "How did you feel about Alex visiting
his father?"

"The only way I can answer that question, your honor, is to say that I have
learned to trust my husband's instincts.  I have never met Alex's father
personally.  When Book and Alex came home that day; I'm referring to the
day that Book met Alex's father, they both shared with me what had
transpired.  I supported Book's decision not to pursue a possible
relationship with Umberto.  I understand that perhaps this may sound like
blind acceptance, however; as I have already stated, I trust Book's
instincts wholeheartedly."

"Mr. Booker, what was your primary reason or purpose to initially make an
attempt to contact Alex's father?" the judge asked him.

"Honestly, I thought that it was the right thing to do.  My son, Tommy, and
Alex were best friends.  Alex was at our house all of the time.  He ate
with us, he played with us, we did most things together.  He only slept at
his house; when he wasn't in school, he was with us. He quickly became a
member of our family.  We all fell in love with Alex.  I would pick him and
Tommy up from school and he would spend the rest of the day at our house
until it was time for me to take him home.  I never let him go home by
himself at night.

Alex and Tommy's birthdays are about nine days apart.  When I found out
that Alex had never had a birthday party in his life, it broke my heart.  I
talked to Bray and we decided to throw a birthday party for both of the
boys.  At that time, I told Alex that I wanted to meet his father.  I felt
that it was appropriate to get his permission or approval for the birthday
party.  If someone was doing something with, or on behalf of my child, as a
parent, I would want to know about it.

Alex freaked out when I told him I had to meet his father.  He begged me
not to approach him; the thought of me meeting his father really scared
him.  However, I insisted; it was not negotiable. I felt that at the very
least, I should introduce myself to Alex's father since Alex spends so much
time with us. Alex reluctantly agreed and we drove over to his house so
Alex could make the introductions.  May I also add, that my interaction
that day with Umberto was conducted exclusively in Spanish. That is why I
wanted to meet Alex's father.  I thought it was the right thing to do."

"Thank you, gentlemen," the judge said, "Let's move on to something else.
Mr. Booker, Mr. Nash, are you aware that if the court grants you custody of
Alex, you are entitled to supplemental financial support?" the judge asked
them.

Book and Bray looked at each other not comprehending what she was talking
about.  "Um, with all do respect, your honor, we do not require nor have we
requested any kind of financial support.  Bray and I both make a very
respectable living.  We are quite willing and capable of supporting Alex
without assistance.  That's our job as his parents.  In fact, we have
already set up a college fund for Alex should he decide he wants to get a
degree," Book immediately responded.

"Gentlemen, just to be clear, please understand that often times in cases
such as this, supplemental financial support is commonplace.  It is
something that must be addressed by the court prior to the court rendering
its decision.  It is in no way intended to be reflective of an individual's
ability or inability to provide for the minor in question.

Mr. Booker, you mentioned that you and Mr. Nash have setup a college fund
for Alex.  Why would you do this prior to a definitive custody decision by
this court?" she asked.

"To be blunt, your honor, and with all due respect," Book said, "Bray and I
love Alex.  Should this court deny us custody for any reason, that will not
stop us from supporting Alex should he need anything.  We want Alex to
understand how much we love him and want him.  In future, should he ever
need anything, irrespective of whether we have custody of him, we will
always be there for him; he will always be our son.  We want him to get a
proper education.  Kinsey and I did that long ago for our Tommy.  Bray and
I will do no less for Alex."

"Thank you, Mr. Booker.  I understand.  Ms. Burns, is it still your opinion
as stated in your formal recommendation submitted to this court, that
custody of the minor, Alejandro Estrada, be awarded to Mr. Andrew Booker
and Mr. Brayson Nash?"

"Yes, your honor, it is; both professionally and personally," Pam
responded.

"Thank you, Ms. Burns," the judge said.  She took a deep breath and folded
her hands in front of her on the desk.

"At this time, it is customary to return to chambers and review all of the
documentation submitted regarding this case, including all written
affidavits, as well as reviewing and considering all verbal testimony.
However, having said that, this court stands ready, confident and prepared
to render its decision in this matter without delay."

Book wrapped his arms around Alex and pulled him close as best he could.  A
gesture that did not go unnoticed by the judge. Book took a deep breath as
the judge announced her verdict.

"Firstly, with regard to the aforementioned letter of protest submitted my
Mr. Umberto Estrada, the biological father of the minor, Alejandro Estrada,
and after careful review, this court finds this document to be prejudicial,
judgmental, and bigoted with no legal grounds for consideration.

Secondly, it is obvious to this court the kind of family dynamic
demonstrated here in this courtroom today, although perhaps traditionally
unusual by some standards, is a tightly bonded, loving, supportive, and
respectful family atmosphere.  Therefore, this court finds it exceedingly
easy, and may I say, a pleasure, to grant custody of the minor, Alejandro
Estrada, to Mr. Andrew Booker and Mr. Brayson Nash, a married couple.  This
case is adjourned."

The judge brought down her gavel and stood up from the desk.  Book felt
such relief he couldn't stop the tears rolling down his face.  "Thank you,
thank you, thank you," he repeated across the table to the judge as she
smiled, turned and walked away.  Book was so excited he literally picked
Alex up in his arms and kissed him on the lips in front of God and everyone
in the courtroom.  He sat Alex down, turned to Bray and laid a powerful
lip-lock on him.  Tommy ran over and wrapped himself around Alex who
excitedly hugged him back.

Book looked over at Kinsey to see her smiling face.  He stepped up to her
and forcefully pulled her into his body and hugged her tight.

"Thank you, Kins.  Thank you, thank you, thank you.  I know that your kind
words weighed heavy with the judge's decision.  I can't thank you enough
for being here for me; for us.  I love you so much, Kins," Book said
softly, tears rolling down his face.

"You're welcome, Book.  I love you, and for the record, I only spoke the
truth," she smiled proudly.

Both Sam and Pam stood back to the side and let them have their celebratory
hug-fest.  Book looked over to see them standing on the sidelines and
approached them.

"My gosh, guys, I don't know how to thank you enough.  You have helped me
to keep my family together.  To say thank you seems insufficient; I owe you
so much," Book said emotionally.

"You'll think differently Book when you receive my final bill," Sam joked.
"Honestly, Book, you and your family did all of the hard work.  It would be
unethical for us to take credit for something we did not do," Sam
commented.

"Sam, is right, Book.  You guys did all of the work with your testimony. We
were there for moral support.  Especially, Sam, he barely uttered two
sentences the entire time.  It's the easiest money he has ever made," Pam
joked.

"Well, I want you both to know how grateful Bray and I are for your support
through all of this. It means a lot to us. May I give you both a hug?" Book
asked.

Book stepped back after giving each of them a thankful and respectful hug.
"So, what happens now?" he asked.

"My office will contact you very soon, Book," Pam said.  "You and Bray will
need to sign guardianship papers.  A notary in my office will notarize them
and you will get an official copy.  Alex is legally yours, if you will
excuse the possessive expression. You and Bray are now responsible for
Alex.  My office will notify his school. You will have to go into the
school and update the contact information for Alex. Other than that, it's
over, Book."

"Folks," Barney addressed them, "I'm going to have to ask you to vacate the
courtroom now," he said in a friendly tone.

"Of course, Barney; our apologies," Sam responded.  Sam placed his hand on
Book's back and ushered him towards the courtroom door.

"Guys, we need to bug out," Book told his family as they walked across the
courtroom.  "They are kicking us out of here; let's go."

Collectively they ambled down the hall towards the exit. Alex on Book's
right and Tommy on Book's left.  Book had his hand on Alex's shoulder,
Tommy had his hand tucked into his dad's back pocket.

As they exited the building, Tommy said, "Dad, can we stop and get
something to eat on the way home?"

"Sure, little-man, we can definitely do that, Book answered him.  "If
memory serves correct, there's a place not too far away; it's right up the
street.  Let's give that a try."

"Are you game, Kins?" Book asked.

"Actually, I think I'm just going to head on into the office if that's OK
with you guys. Go have fun; celebrate the occasion.  I'll catch up with you
later," Kinsey answered.  She bent down and kissed Tommy on the head, and
then Alex. She gave Book and Bray a hug and walked back to her car.

Book looked over to see Alex pulling at his crotch.  "What wrong,
gorgeous?" Book asked him giggling.

"I can't wait to take this underwear off, dad; my balls are getting
squished.  I'm not used to wearing underwear and pants at the same time
anymore.  One or the other separately is fine, but together, it freakin'
sucks!" Alex answered him with a frown on his face.

"Just take them off when we get into the car," Book said laughing as he led
them towards the parking lot.  It didn't take long for them to arrive at
the car and Book unlocked it with the remote.  Alex hurried over and jumped
in the back seat, anxious to remove his underwear.  Tommy slid in next to
him and closed the door.  By the time Book and Bray got in the car, Alex
had his pants off.

Book turned around and looked in the back seat. "Look at that pretty cock
bulge," Book said as Alex lifted his ass off the seat and pulled down his
underwear. Alex started to giggle and thrusted his crotch up towards Book.

"Like it, dad?" Alex asked as his beautiful cock flopped about.

"Love it, is more like it," Book said with a smile as he started the car.

Alex slipped his pants back on leaving his underwear on the floor of the
car and sat back in the seat.  "Dad?" Alex said.

"Yeah, baby," Book responded.

"Is it really over; I get to live permanently with you guys?" Alex asked.

"It is and you do gorgeous," Book answered with a big smile.

Alex looked over at Tommy and smiled.  Tommy started to giggle and snuggled
up into Alex's arms. Alex whispered something in Tommy's ear and he nodded
his head in approval.

"Dad?" Tommy said.

"Yeah, baby," Book answered him looking in the back seat.

"Can we just go home?" Tommy asked.

"I thought you were hungry little-man?" Book answered him.

"I just downloaded a new book on my tablet.  I'd rather we all go home,
order a pizza, get naked, and take turns reading in bed," Tommy
volunteered.

"What about you, Alex?" Book asked.

"I love that idea, dad.  That works for me," Alex answered.

"Bray, how about you?" Book asked.

"I'm never going to decline an opportunity to get naked with three gorgeous
guys whom I love and adore; count me in," Brayson said jovially.

"Fair enough," Book said.  "Let's go home."
