Date: Tue, 18 May 2021 19:17:15 +0000 (UTC) From: Mike Simmons Subject: It was always about the bets 248 At home it was a very quick shower and I found the grey suit that I had got for the NASA trip and a very light grey shirt a black belt and black shoes and fixed my hair and for some reason I grabbed a red tie with small grey dots put it in my pocket and drove to Mary Ann's. I knocked and when the door open I said hi TJ. He shook is head and asked again how do you do that? I said well I'm special but where is dinner? He said we have friends and it's the Duquesne Club, just the 6 or us. I said well that will be special I have only had lunch there once or twice. Mary Ann appeared and we kissed and TJ said you guys better get going as Mike needs to stop for a tie. Mary Ann glared at her brother and I pulled the tie out of my pocket and said Boy Scout here always prepared. TJ said damn and Mary Ann said you'll pay for that. So TJ, what time are the reservations and he said 6:30. I smiled and said we will meet you all outside. In the car I leaned over and kissed her and said babe, I'm sorry. She looked surprised and said what did you do? Babe, I'm a member at the Duquesne Club and I don't go there hardly at all because there isn't a minutes peace. We or rather, I will be mobbed all night. Mike, so worse that Oakmont and I simply said much worse and pulled out of the driveway. We drove to town and I pulled up in front of the Club on 6th Avenue, my door was open and I gave my name and the attendant asked are you here for dinner and I said yes and was told to have a good night. Mary Ann looked at the Club entrance and said, well that's not very impressive. I said we have 20 minutes let's go for a walk. As we walked, I put my tie on and she said thanks for not being mad. I stopped and took both hands and said babe, with the evening they will have I actually feel sorry for them. I am their guest so and I won't take over but it will be a zoo. I will even try to limit that but drinks and desert will be wild and hopefully dinner will be respected and I do have a way of sending messages. We started back to the Club and waited for her parents and the guys. They showed up and asked was parking an issue? I said nope, we pulled up and I gave Sam over there my keys and The car vanished, I hope I get it back. We should go in and Mary Ann and I let them go ahead. The twins were talking with the hostess and I heard Mr. Simmons we weren't expecting you today, this way please as we have a table. I said Carl, I'm sorry but I am here tonight as their guests and I indicated JT and TJ. There was a conversation between the hostess and the Club manager and we were quickly shown to a table for 6. My ass had barely hit the seat when there was a hand on my shoulder and I looked and said well good evening Pete. I stood up and introduced the Mayor to the group. Then the Mayor said Mike, thanks for the help with the Union guys, can I expect an endorsement? I said you know once I register to vote we can talk. He said well drinks are on me and get this dude a Flaherty special. Once the Mayor was gone I said sorry about that and drinks orders were taken. Before the drinks arrived and a guy came up to me and said excuse me Mike, I am John Fogerty but there is a gentlemen over there who would to meet you, I promise it won't be long. I excused myself and a few tables away I sat down and said Mr. Rooney it is an honor to meet you and Mrs. Rooney. Mike, I watched you play at the stadium last year and that was a great two way effort. I even followed your recovery. I said sir, I appreciate that. Mr. Rooney, we are starting camp on Monday and are planning on being back. He smiled and said well repeats are not always easy. I said, oh we understand that and will work hard. Then he said the US Open gig is a big deal, good luck with that. I said thanks and we shook hands and I went back to the table and found a scotch and ice and Mary Ann with a white wine. Then there was a judge who asked about Megan. A couple of congressmen. Finally some Vice President of the gas company came over and handed me his business card and I gave it back and said just loudly enough for people to hear and said, well I have an HR department to deal with that, thanks. He retreated and I asked, can we please order. I reached in my pocket and took out my wallet and some business cards and handed them out and said, call me at the office. The funniest thing was when the Pitt football coach came over and asked if he could change my mind and come to Pitt. I said coach, have you noticed the number of people who have interrupted a family dinner? He laughed and said well good luck in Virginia. Our salads were delivered and I noticed that there was a waiter just standing there. I almost laughed out loud when I saw him ask someone to visit after dinner. I said guys I'm sorry about this and I really appreciated being invited to this special family dinner. That is why I don't eat here often, it is always like that. Oakmont isn't like this well except for a very few and those people are important. It will be quieter while we eat as there is a gatekeeper. Mary Ann's dad said well it was fun to watch and if you paid attention it was an insight to Mike and what is important and what isn't. Dinner arrived and the food was excellent as usual and everybody seemed to relax. When we finished eating I got up and went to the men's room and on the way back I stopped at the gatekeeper and said thanks and tipped him. Sitting back down there were desert menus and I simply ordered a cappuccino. I was surprised that we still weren't bothered and I saw the gatekeeper was still there. Hell, I guess the tip was big enough. TJ asked Mike, is this typical? I said in places like this and it will get worse starting next week but at least I won't have college people after me. Then JT asked, why not just sell the companies and bank the money and enjoy life? Look guys that's not me and I didn't have to build two buildings. It is fun most days and yet a real pain in the ass. I said we are almost ready to furnish the first floor and that is super excited about that. I should take you to see the building some time. I checked the time and said well it will be getting dark and it's not good tramping around a construction site at night. Then TJ said dad why don't we all meet there tomorrow after work, if that's ok with Mike. I said sure that works say 5:00 and I'm buying food. Oh the dress is jeans and definitely no tie. That resulted a laugh from the twins. We got up and went outside and started the process of retrieving my car and everyone walked to the parking lot. I was asked so what we doing next?I said my place and she said not a good idea. I laughed and said so as Cole would say the monthly good news and I was immediately punched in the arm. We both laughed and I said well your place and she said that works. We were home alone and we just sat and talked about the day and she asked me all about the conversation with Mr. Rooney. I said he congratulated me on last year, asked about my head and congratulate me on the US Open co-chair. Oh, I said hello to his wife. It wasn't long till everyone was home. Mary Ann and her parents went to change an I took my tie off and went outside with the twins. I went up to JT and put my tie around his neck and pulled him into a quick kiss and I whispered, that fucking trick will cost you and I put my hand on his ass and whispered that will be all mine. He said why me and I smiled and said remember you two assholes started this. Back inside I spent a few minutes with Mary Ann and her rents and was walked to the car for a good night kiss and drove home. I went right to my room and found Jace and JJ drinking beer and chatting. JJ took one look at me and laughed saying you are sexier in jeans and a tee. I went in my room and changed to jeans and a tee and Jace laughed saying Mike, that's one hell of a message. I laughed and replied, no need to send a message. Jace got up and grabbed another beer and said last one as I'm flying back tomorrow afternoon as Mark has the weekend off. Then he said I am planning on watching Cole play golf the following weekend, will I see you two there? I said I hope so. I told them about dinned and they found that hysterical. Jace said he had a meeting with Tim in the morning and had to pack so he was going to bed. JJ said well that sounds like a good idea and went to the bathroom. I went in the room, stripped and laid in bed with my hands folded behind my head and was hard as a rock. JJ came in, stripped and sat on the bed and grabbed my balls and slapped them and fuck it hurt and killed my hard on. I sat up and asked why did you do that and he kissed and said because if you are going to lay there like a blowup sex doll, I'm going home and jack off. I grabbed him and we started to make out and I knew I was going to be filled with cowboy cum. All of a sudden I was rolled over and pulled to my hands and knees and JJ was eating my ass. That's almost as good as him sucking and pinching my nips. Once I was dripping wet I was flipped back over and my knees were by my ears and JJ shoved his cock in balls beep and held it there. Then he pulled out and laid flat on his back and said sit on my cock but put feet by he head and I found that different and a bit hard to do but fuck he was in my ass deep then he said lay back but keep my cock in you. We laid like that for a bit and he started to slowly move his hips and damn it was hot. I knew I was a lot closer to popping my load than he was so I put my hands behind my head and did a sit up. He smiled and I started to ride and we both shot at the same time. Him in my ass and me on his chest. I was pulled into a kiss and was asked, how many sit-ups can you do with me in your ass? I laughed and said shit, I've never done that before and all of a sudden he put his cum cover finger on my lips and wiped the cum on my face and kissed me. With that he got up and started to get dressed and said, sorry. Mom is watching me like a hawk and oh I forgot to tell you Kathy, my sister, broke it off with Sam. There was a long kiss good night and I laid there alone thinking the Sam drama just has legs of its own. I hadn't set the alarm but was up for the run in time to put coffee on and Cole and Jace were there and JJ was ready when we got to his place. Cole said he was headed to Oakmont for another teaching round and would be home all night? I asked about his girl and he smiled and asked, what girl. I had to laugh at that and it was a quick shower and I dressed in black jeans and a charcoal crew neck tee with black shoes and belt and filled my travel mug and drove to the office. Once there, I was glad to see Amy at the desk and stopped and chatted for a second and fired up my computer and checked the schedule. It was Zaid, Maggie, Tim and dad in the morning. I laughed at that as I hadn't stopped in at all last night, it never entered my mind. The afternoon was simply Riley. I blocked the rest of the day from 3:30 on and went for a coffee refill. When I returned Amy followed me in the office and asked for a minute. I said sure and we both sat down. Mike, I thought about it and would like to take the position. I told her how pleased I was about that and asked if that was why Maggie was on the schedule. Mike something about her being the last to know shit. Then she asked if I would pleas consider putting the door back on? I said that I would think about it and she went back to her desk. I had time before Zaid and called the school Athletic Office. When the call was answered I said hi Nancy this is.... and before I could say who I was Nancy said hi Mike, how is your Summer? Well it was good but over. I asked about hers and she said a nice vacation and work. Then she said Coach is in a meeting can I help? I asked for Wyatt Carson's contact information and she said hold on and I'll get it. A minute later I was given an address and a phone number. I thanked her an said, I'll be seeing you soon. As soon as I hung up Zaid appeared and we discussed my schedule and he asked if he should be at my meeting with dad. I said that he would be business as he scheduled a meeting here. At home it's get your ass in my office. Zaid laughed at that. We spent a lot of time with my schedule starting next week and I said I would be completely available every day from 11:00 till 3:00 or 4:00 and would be in most days. As we finished my phone rang and Amy said Mike, Maggie is here for he appointment and she is less than pleased. I said Amy please ask her to go to the conference room. Then I asked Zaid how his girl was and if they was still looking to move in together. Zaid just looked at me and I said she is early, she is mad and she will be madder and thus easier to deal with. Right on time I opened the conference room door and said good morning Maggie. There was no reaction to that I sat down and said Maggie I get that your pissed and you do a great job and you know I don't give a fuck your pissed, especially as I wasn't handed a resignation letter. So you be mad and I'll run the company the way I want. She burst out laughing and said well, you are over paying Amy, you added to her responsibilities. Ruth has resigned and three secretaries walked out last night. One because Amy got the job and the other two because you are an ass. I sounded astounded and said only two. Then she asked is that gatekeeper shit new policy? I replied yup and it applies to everyone except my dad. Well Mike when you have the balls to include him, I'll know you are for real. She said, I will have 2 temps in place Monday and will interview replacements. She got up and said, I don't know why I put up with your shit and she left leaving the door open. Zaid, just sat there and I left him to figure it out and went to my office. While Zaid was figuring out what just happened I called the Connors and a woman answered and I said hi, I'm Mike Simmons. Oh Mike, Wyatt will be so upset he missed your call, he is out with a couple of new friends playing golf. Well Mrs. Carson I was actually hoping I could stop over tomorrow morning and introduce myself. Mike, I'm sorry but we have a meeting at the country club tomorrow morning, we are planning to join. I said South Hills and she said yes. The guys should be free a little before noon but I promised our daughter that she could start 7th grade in new clothes. Mrs. Carson could you please ask you husband to call me at some point today? Mike, I am Heather and my husband is John. I'll speak with John shortly but can Wyatt also give you a call and I said, absolutely and we hung up. Right on time, Tim appeared and said, well I guess we need to go to the conference room. Before he could bitch about it I said Tim, I am having the door put back on. Tim just shook is head. We went to the conference room and Tim closed the door and almost immediately Zaid walked in and said, sorry I'm late, I have no idea where these meetings are located. Tim said Mike, the video games division is sold 4.2 million and Kyle has signed the agreement. Mike, as discussed you are required to divest yourself of any financial interest in the company. I took the papers and set them aside and said, my next meeting is with dad and I need to read these. Tim looked at me and I said, sorry but are you my legal advisor or the companies advisor in this? He said Mike, I knew this would happen at some point so what we doing? Tim, you need to understand that I need you in both capacities but on these rare occasions, like these, I will use other legal advisors. We spent the next 45 minutes on other legal issues and when Tim was finished, I asked Zaid for the room and I asked Tim if he understood about my need of someone else to look the document over? He said absolutely and that was going to happen as things were so closely tied together. As Tim left and dad was there and he politely asked Zaid to leave as this was family business. Once we was alone dad ask so Mike, I need to buy you out of the startup as I'm merging it with the video game department I just bought. What would you want? I smiled and said nothing and I'll simply sign my shares over. Dad looked at me and asked, why? Well dad I really don't need the money and consider it a birthday gift for my sister. Then there is the tax write off as it was personally held. Together we revised the document I needed to sign and I simply signed it. Then I asked if he was available around noon to golf and after explaining things he said sure. We hugged and went our separate ways. Zaid and I went to lunch and I told him how I saw the difference between Ruth and Maggie. I said both are very good in their positions, one can change and adjust and one can't, one is street smart and one can't even find the street, one is religious and one isn't, one is rough and sometime vulgar and one isn't. Oh, one is a racist and one isn't. He laughed and said you forgot something. Ok Zaid, what is that? Mike, one is just like you and one isn't. I need to think about that and we finished eating and went back to the office. I spent about an hour with Amy going over how to contact me and when I would usually be available. Most of which was a rehash and she tried hard to humor me. Then I went to see Tim and handed him the legal signed document that completed the sale and he simply said, that was quick. Who gave you legal advice and I said dad and that I would see him Monday. Then I called the Major and he said he was already working on a press release for the sale and asked if I was ready for football. I said, well I'm never ready and he laughed and said JJ was a complete wreck and he has never seen him like this. I said I'll call him a bit later. Then I asked him to email me the press release after it went out. Around 2:30 my phone rang, knowing it was John Carson, I made sure I was very polite and answered saying, good afternoon this Mike. The reply was hi Mike, this is John Carson, what can I do for you? Well John, with football starting I just wanted to introduce myself and see how Wyatt was doing? Well Mike, he is more than a little nervous and talks a lot about you and some cowboy, JJ I think he calls him. Well John, that is understanding and I was hoping to visit tomorrow but I understand you have a busy morning. He said yes a membership meeting at South Hills. Then he said, Wyatt and I are free in the afternoon. John would you and Wyatt be interested in playing golf with my dad and I say 12:00, I'll get a tee time. Mike, Wyatt would love that but I would need to dash home and change. I said just bring a change and I'll set it up with the locker room attendant. Mike, you can do all that? I said yup as I'm a member and we can deal with all that tomorrow. Oh, would it be ok if I picked Wyatt up at your place say 11:00 we can get better acquainted and hit balls at the range. Oh, we will bring you clubs. I could tell he was thinking what the fuck but he said sure. I immediately called the Club and asked for a tee time around noon and was told 11:50 was available and I took that. With all that done and things as tied up as much as possible I drove home and changed into very comfortable clothes and started to finish my latest reading for history. I was very aware of the meeting with Mary Ann and the family. I put the jeans back on with a polo shirt this time and drove to the site. I parked, took my hard hat out of the trunk and walked to the trailer and grabbed 5 hard hats. Returning to the car was fun as the workers were on their way home and I chatted with some and simply said hello to others. Mary Ann and the family arrived in two cars and I gave her a less than polite kiss and distributed hard hats. Inside the lobby had wood covering the floor and the entire first floor was spotless, obviously ready for the install on Tuesday. We looked at each floor and it became apparent how much work needed to be done. On the 4th floor I took them straight to where my office was and everyone was impressed with the view and we even went out on the small "patio" area. We spent an hour at the building and I got the Twins aside and gave them directions to the joint in Greentree. Mary Ann's parents would drive me and Peanuts and then drop me off to get the car. At the bar we all parked and walked in together and it was the same greeting as I got hugged and chatted about dad and we pulled a couple of tables together. Drink orders were taken and Mary Ann and I ordered iced tea and everyone ordered a beer. When the drinks came and it was all beer, JT asked, how the fuck did that happen. His mother immediately said "Duce" enough with the mouth. I looked at TJ and asked does that make you "Ace"? Everyone laughed and I warned them about the food but it was fish sandwiches all around, except for Mary Ann and I who ordered fish on a dish and I cancelled the individual French Fries and ordered two baskets or fries. We had a great time and when the food came there was so much it was silly. Naturally, I couldn't pay and Mary Ann's dad said that was definitely better than last night. Back at my car Mary Ann jumped into my car and told the rents she wouldn't be late. I asked where we were going and she said your place. I said that works and she said, just so you know Terri and JJ will be there waiting. Mike, you and JJ are so close, Terri and I have joined forces. I smiled and asked what does that mean? She replied, well for starters no sex tonight and just hanging out and one drink. She laughed and put her hand on my thigh and asked, so can you keep this in its holster for 24 hours and grabbed my cock. I smiled and said well remember it is a six shooter. She said well only in your imagination and after two times you don't even shoot blanks. She laughed and said well don't be upset, it's the same as yesterday, unless you like it that way. Babe, I'll take you any way you want and I'll be more than ready tomorrow night. We were at a traffic light and she kissed me and said well I have never fucked a guy who was a football jock. I looked over and asked have you ever made love to a football jock? Before she could answer, I said there is a difference. Mike, don't be an ass I actually like both kinds of sex. I'm just saying we should hang out a lot more with those two it will be more fun. Oh, that's a suggestion and shouldn't limit our private time. With my head spinning we pulled into the driveway. In the apartment there were Terri and JJ and each had a drink and we joined them and handed Mary Ann a wine and I grabbed a beer. Were laughing and talking and having a blast when JJ got up and refilled our drinks and Mary Ann took the drink and laughed and said damn that was easy. I grabbed her by the hand and said well if that was a game, so was the no sex so let's go. She whispered that it really wasn't a good time and I said well how about a blow job right here? She turned bright red and I pulled her close and said fuck, that was easy and we both laughed. Terri had switched to a soft drink and around 10:00 she said they had to go as it was a big shopping day for clothes tomorrow. Mary Ann kissed me good night and said fill that six shooter for tomorrow. I said, well I'll pick you up at 7:00. THANKS FOR READING AND FOR THE COMMENTS, AS THEY ARE APPRECIATED.
