Date: Sun, 7 Apr 2024 19:13:31 +0000 (UTC) From: Mike Simmons Subject: It was always about the bets 403 In my room it wasn't the wild clothes flying off and jumping naked in bed type of sex. We both had beers and JJ went right to the night stand, as was becoming common, grabbed a pack of smokes and lit two and handed me one. I sat on the bed and put the beer on the floor and JJ sat beside me and we kissed, slowly but deeply and caring. When the kiss broke JJ took a drag of the cigarette and looking right at me asked MJ, how is it that a fantastically built sexy dude could spend a weekend on a college campus and not need a rubber? I laughed and said, well it's complicated but nothing came up. JJ placed his hand on my cock which was still covered with underwear and jeans and laughed. Then he said MJ, this always come up. I took a drag of the cigarette and said well unless I'm with you I keep it controlled. I pulled him into another kiss and slid my hand under his tee and was playing with his nips. I broke off the kiss and started kissing his neck and after a few minutes I was pushed away and JJ said no bites and he took off his tee and I went right to his nips. JJ found the bottom of my sweatshirt and pulled it up forcing me off his nips. We were now both shirtless and JJ got up lit 2 more cigarettes and again I was handed one. I took it but said JJ that's enough of these. JJ laughed and said well get those jeans off and I'll smoke something else. I laughed quickly stripped. JJ sat beside me on the bed and he took a sip of beer and said MJ, with you it is always complicated but who is the girl and why no sex. JJ, it's Erin and no sex because I'm not sure I can stand the drama. Her dad is the University President. JJ laughed so hard he fell on the floor. Then I said well get those lips on that rocket between my legs. JJ went at it intensely and I lightly slapped his head and said slow down I want this to last and I'm looking to fill a different place. I pulled him to his feet and undid the belt and loosened his jeans. I then stood up and pushed him on the bed and grabbed the bottom of the jeans and with one quick hard pull he was there with just boxers on. I quickly removed those and laid beside him and quickly we both had a hard throbbing cock in our mouth. JJ surprised me as I felt his cock stared to pulse and damn my mouth was full of cum. I swallowed some of it but stood up an grabbed his legs and raised then until his as was exposed. I leaned forward and spit the part of the load I hadn't swallowed and spit it on his hole. I told JJ to hold his legs and I lined up my cock and slowly pushed it balls deep. I went at it slowly as I wanted this to last a long time. Every time I got close I would pull out and take a deep breath and start again. JJ was moaning and begging me to shoot and finally I couldn't hold back and with a hard push and my balls resting on his ass cheeks I shot a massive load deep in his gut. We laid in the bed and talked and kissed and talked some more. Finally JJ said that he had to get home. I wished JJ could have spent the night or even stayed longer but it is what it is. Even with the giant breakfast I was hungry. I grabbed a jacket and drove to the Giant Eagle Supermarket. At the deli I ordered a pound of Isaly's chipped ham and a half of pound of thin sliced Swiss cheese then at the bakery I grabbed some fresh baked sandwich buns and then a tomato and some lettuce. With that I checked out and made sure the advantage card was scanned. At my place I put mayonnaise on both sides of the sliced bun added chipped ham, two slices of the cheese, a slice of tomato and a bunch of chipped ham. I put the sandwich on a plate with potato chips. I grabbed a beer and it was a traditional Pittsburgh meal. If you were a hundred miles outside of Pittsburgh it is very likely you never heard of chipped ham. I didn't recognize the number but I knew the 540 area code was Blacksburg. I said hi this is Mike. The person laughed and said, hi Mike this is Erin, I hope you had a great flight home. I took a deep breath and replied, it was very relaxing, thanks. We talked for a bit and I finally said Erin my dinner is ready, I need to go. Thanks for the call. I hung up shaking my head and wasn't happy about the call. I finished my sandwich cleaned up and went to my room and fired up the computer. Just as it finished booting up my phone did it's thing and this time it was Megan. I said hi mam and she said Mike, can you come down here I need to talk with you about the trip to the Masters. Ok mom, I'll be right there. In the house Megan had wine and dad had his scotch and I was asked what I was drinking and I asked for iced tea. Ashley was sitting on the floor eating a cookie. Dad returned with a scotch and handed it to me. I didn't want that but said thanks and sat down. Megan said that she had a long chat with Cole today and she wanted to make sure that everything was in place as she wanted no additional pressure on Cole. Mike, I believe we have a lot of people so let's figure out who. Mom, Cole has me to bring Jessica and Liam's girl. JJ and I will be flying. Then there is you, dad and Ashley. Guys by that count it's 5 as JJ and I are upfront. We have room for 3 more. Then Megan said Mike, Cole asked if we could get his Pro and wife there and back and they have a place to stay. Then he added Doc. Johnson and his wife and we need to get JJ's parents there. Dad, if the Major flies a jet he needs a copilot and I'm guessing that guy will have a wife so now rooms become an issue as I have 5. Then Megan said that Cole rented a house so Cole, Liam and the girls are covered. Dad, who had been quiet said well with you and JJ sharing a room and the girls out of the mix we should be good. Megan asked Mike, where are these rooms? I smiled and said on the grounds, no cars involved and there should be no rentals because parking is very limited. Then Megan asked Mike, what does all that cost? Megan, my room is free, well paid for by the USGA the others are $300 a night and we have them 5 nights starting Friday. I laughed and said Cole damn well better make the cut or I'm billing him. Oh, just so everyone understands I'm not paying for anything else. Guys, nothing there will be inexpensive. Then I said one other thing whoever is flying with me, it's wheels up at 9:30 AM. I'll talk with the Major and reserve 2 shuttles once I find out when he want to leave. Guys, let me know who is flying with me and I'll find out who Liam is involved with and I'll let you know. I got up, dumped the scotch in the sink, said good night and went to my place. Back at my place I realized how tired I was and decided to call it a night. No shower, I just stripped, set the alarm and jumped into bed. I was up before the alarm but there would be no run as April in Western Pennsylvania is usually very wet and I guess Mother Nature got the April message. I was actually glad as I needed a long shower also so I put the coffee on and went to the shower. It felt great and when I finished I checked out how I looked and was pleased with the results I still weighed 223 and was still 6'4" so I assumed I was done growing. Dress was for work and I sat in the loveseat with a cup of coffee. I was really relaxed so I left for school a tad early. I parked in my usual place and ran to the building as it was still raining. As soon as I got inside Wyatt approached. Mike, I was glad to get you before class. Ok Wyatt, I'm got so what's so important? Mike, it's all good I just wanted to know if I could stop at your place after dinner tonight. Wyatt, that's fine but could we make it around 8:00, I want to workout as it will be my last chance this week as its Masters week. Mike, it's just me coming. I guessed he learned his lesson from that night at the Tavern. I went looking for JJ and when I found him we made plans for the workout and then grab a bite to eat. With that I headed for English. I actually made it through the classes and I was totally board as they were all lectures. I knew that we were being prepared for the next level but I was hoping to Mia all those 101 level classes. I wanted to concentrate on math and the Comp Science classes. Heck I would be totally not into English 101. As I was signing out Doc Johnson appeared and asked if I had a minute. We went into his he closed the door and asked me to have a seat. He sat beside me and while I was nervous about all this his choice of seats relaxed me some. Mike, I have two things and one is just a question about the Masters. I was a bit more than surprised when Cole called and invited me. That all changed to total amazement when he said that you and JJ would be flying me and my wife there and that the rooms were on site and that I should ask you for the details. So Mike, can you enlighten me. Doc, I had an opportunity to reserve a number of rooms as a meme of the USGA Executive Committee. Those rooms are paid for so there is no cost to you. Meals other than lunch will be more than a bit formal and you will be able to make reservations. Dress is like the Country Clubs and it will be expensive. Just have the meals billed to the room. Doc just looked at me and I said don't worry at some point You, me and the Major will have a breakfast meeting and a good bit of this will be a tax write off. I'll include Mr. Palmer and that will help. My room is free. Other than that I'll need you at the County Airport at 9:00 on Wednesday. We will be back Monday morning. Doc. I didn't know Cole invited you until last night and Judge Megan should call you tonight. Well, I'll call the wife and she will immediately be going shopping for clothes. Mike, I spent lot of time interviewing coaches and I'm taking the last week of April and the first week of May off so I will be at the new office those weeks. Then I'll start June 15th full time. Doc, that sounds good to me but please let Dillon and Kyle know what's up and I'll make sure that you get paid for any of that. Doc, I'm the Chairman and have very little to do with the day to day operation, Kyle and Dillon do that. I believe your direct report will be to one of them, most likely Dillon, and that puts you very high up in the company and people will recognize that immediately. I'm always available to you just run things by them. I trust them to run the place as shortly I'll be in Virginia. Oh Doc, when Megan calls tell her I said you are flying with me. With that, I headed to the office. When I got to the 4th floor Kyle waved to me and I stood by the door and and asked what's up? Mike a few minutes ago I got a call from Dr. Johnson and I listened then sent him to Dillon. Kyle, he mentioned that to me today and I told him Dillon was most likely his direct report. He will get the system, remember he has been in Education for almost 30 years and he will figure it out. Mike, I get it and I'm sure Dillon will take care of things. Then Kyle's phone rang and he shook his head and said, it's just one of those days. On my way to my office I passed dad's empty office and just shook my head. It finally hit me that dad was out of the company he founded and it was by his choice. That saddened me but it focused me to the here and now. Inside my office it was strangely quiet as there was no noise from the construction and a quick look revealed a lot of mud and puddles. I satin a club chair and grabbed my phone and called Liam. I was expecting the call to go to voicemail but Liam answered on the second ring saying, shit Mike I forgot to get you Patti's information. I laughed and said Liam, I understand Cole is a tough boss. Mike, we got here and he was so uptight it worried me. Now he is so relaxed as he loves the course and the place so I'm worried again. Mike, he thinks this course is easy and I'm worried all over again. Hell I don't make expenses unless he makes the cut. I laughed and said ok, how in the hell do I contact Patti? He gave me the number and I said, we will see you Wednesday and hung up. I placed a quick call to Patti and left a detailed message. I spent the rest of the day doing a detailed review of the company finances. I spent a lot of time on the Grade Book program. I noticed that both expenses and revenue up with revenue up more than expenses. Basically the movement was in a positive direction but only slightly. I would make time and discuss the program with Dillon. Besides I wanted an update on the Naval Academy program. There was no way I was getting over involved in this and the over condition of the company remained excellent. It was time to pack up and head to the gym. At the gym I found JJ on the treadmill going at a good pace. When he saw me he gradually slowed down. As he was cooling down I changed. JJ came into the locker room and sat on a bench. I sat beside him and asked okay, what's going on? MJ we are three months away from going to camp and school and while I'm in the best shape of my life, I want to make sure I'm ready and I think I need to increase my workouts and keep the a tighter schedule. JJ, I seem to remember someone just a few weeks ago that three was such a thing as too much and fighting me about adding a few more reps. JJ, I'm not arguing with you but don't do a trying that will reduce your speed. Let's do this, you contact VT and ask for a condition coach recommendation and we will meet with him and get a designed workout that includes a schedule. JJ stood up and said Ok, let's get to work. As we walked out of the locker room I put my arm around him and asked JJ, can we start with no more cigarettes? He laughed and said, Rodger that. It was our usual workout but an intense version and we were both soaked in sweat. We spent the usual time in the sauna and a longer time in the shower. JJ said he was pressed on time and wanted to go to Eat N' Park. I was agreeable as I had that meeting with Wyatt. At the restaurant, I laughed out loud as JJ ordered the salad bar. Hell i didn't know he knew that existed. I ordered the same and we both had iced tea. JJ said that he had the whole week of as the weather cancelled today and his dad was having the jets serviced as he is a bit anal about the trip. MJ, we will be flying into Augusta Regional Airport and he is making me do a flight plan tonight and I'm to give it to you tomorrow morning in school. I'm just glad he is in the other jet. I had to laugh at that but I understood what he was feeling as I have felt the tension and worries about the change to the next level. Sometimes I thought we both choose poorly and I should have gone to MIT and JJ should have gone to the Air Force Academy. On another level I wasn't going to be a nerdy guy sitting in front of a computer and more Military life wasn't in JJ's DNA. JJ, paid the bill and we were off on our separate tasks. I needed to meet with Wyatt and remember to reserve two shuttles for Wednesday. At my place I went straight to my room and stripped and put on a cloth jogging suit and no underwear. It was a great feel. Then I turned on my computer and searched The Masters. I needed an update on the Tournament and Bobby Jones. I knew most of that shit but was amazed at the difference in the winning score over the years. The course has hardly changed, lengthened a bit so the various scores must be a result of the weather. I was about to check the forecast for the tournament when there was a couple of bangs on the door. When I opened the door there was Wyatt, as expected. Today at school, in the crowded hallway I hadn't taken a good look at him. He had grown some and was now about 6' 2" and I would say 190 and well built. He was wearing his hair much like mine a mess and a bit longer than it should be and was a brownish blond. He was wearing jeans, and his letterman's jacket. Once he removed the jacket I was more than impressed as it was obvious that he was doing more than a casual workout. I asked if he wanted something to drink and he said, no thanks, I'm driving. I laughed and said Wyatt I wasn't asking if you wanted a beer. He laughed, then said Mike, I drink but only at home. Dad and granddad are ok with it mom, not so much. Well Wyatt, what do you need to talk about? Mike, things at school are up in the air as there are virtually no coaches left. Everyone is coming to me looking for answers. I didn't react but said Wyatt, you had a large role in it. I don't have any answers but know that they are working on it and things will be fixed by the next Board meeting. Wyatt, you know all that or you should, so why are you here? Mike, my life is very complicated, there is mom and dad and grades, there is granddad and football and Ohio State pressure. There is the girls constantly hitting on me and I'm a good bit older than anyone in my class as I was held back starting and that was granddad again. Then there is school and everyone turning to me for answers. Mike, you went through much of that, how did you deal with it? Wyatt that is a lot and I'm glad you asked me. However, this needs to be what you want and not what the rents or your granddad want. Don't push your self it will come but once it if you go at it with clear eyes and a full heart you can't lose. Wyatt looked at me and just said WHAT? Wyatt once you have a goal you should see it clearly all the other clutter will go away and it doesn't have to be a big goal any goal. A full heart will enable you to achieve the goal and do so with determination and without fear and also enable you do do it the right was and no matter what the outcome you can say I did my best and you can't lose doing that. Wyatt was quiet for a while and I didn't disturb his thoughts. Then he smiled and said, fuck that's a lot to think about. Wyatt once the clutter and emotions are gone, I know you have the heart to get it done right. With that done we chatted about possible new coaches and Wyatt said Mike, I hope the change doesn't turn out to be the grass isn't always greener on the other side of the fence. I laughed and said focus on that with clear eyes and he laughed and got his coat. He said thanks and was on his way somewhere. I was glad he stopped to talk and I hope he focused soon enough to put his granddad in place. I don't think Wyatt had started his car when my phone rang and it was Patti. I laughed when she started by saying that if she didn't talk with me tonight Liam was uninviting her to the masters and the vacation. I laughed and said will I'll make sure he knows you reached out. I went through the details and reminder her that I needed her at the County Airport at 9:00 and we would be in the air no later than 9:30. I also limited her to two suitcases and a carry on. She asked about the jet and I told her it held 8 and that I was flying down and my buddy JJ was the copilot. She actually asked if this was safe and I replied by saying, well it is safe enough that I was on board. She laughed and said, good night, I'll see you Wednesday. I needed to check in with Megan so I went to the house. I was hoping for a quick visit. Megan was doing the usual, reading papers, Ashley was in bed and dad was in his office. I sat in a chair and Megan immediately stopped reading? Mike, I'm sorry you had to stop in, this case is driving me nuts. I hear you have Doc, his wife, the 2 girls and the Pro and his wife, is that correct? Megan a best I can figure and they all know they need to be there at 9:00. Thanks for taking care of the rest. I'll talk with the Major tomorrow and schedule the shuttles and the rooms are set up and all that needs done is them giving the clerk their names. So how is Cole? Mike he is scary relaxed. Mom, that's what Liam said when we talked earlier. He will be fine. With that quickly settled, I waved to dad and went back to my place. I started to pack and that involved 2 suits and my USGA blazer with grey slacks. Then there was the casual shit that included shorts, polo shirts all with a Oakmont logo. Dress shoes and walking shoes a rain suite. Then socks and underwear. That nonsense took more than an hour so I turned off the computer, took a quick shower and jumped into bed. The morning brought great weather and the run was good as JJ was less stressed out. That lasted until the run ended and I told him he needed a suit and a blazer as we would have to dress for dinner. He shook his head and asked MJ, have you ever done a late lunch with a lot of food? I laughed and said we can see about that. We talked about the trip and he dashed inside and quickly returned and handed me the flight plan for Wednesday. With the chat and JJ getting the flight plan I was running late. So a very quick shower and dressed for work, filled my travel mug and left for school. I pretty much sleepwalked through the three classes and signed out for work, stopping for coffee on the way. I was barely settled in my office when Dillon appeared. He didn't waste any time and said Mike, I have a new friend, Steven and now a direct report Dr. Johnson. Are you responsible for that? Just so you know I have enough to do. I smiled and said Dillon, have a seat and relax. Once we were seated I said Dillon, Kyle and I talked but he had already sent Dr. Johnson to you before that chat. As for the construction guy I want him to be comfortable and you were the best suited to do that. Once he is situated he won't require much time as he will have his hands full. As for you being too busy the Grade Book program Has been taken off your hands so managing the director of that program should involve less time. Also, you should talk with Kyle about hiring a COO. I know most of that has fallen to you. That is especially true with the temporary space in the old building. Dillon, I wish I could be of more help but I'm leaving the running of this company to Kyle and you. Right now I couldn't be more pleased as things are going very well. Dillon took a beep breath and said Mike, thanks for your time and I get what you are saying. I needed to blow off some some steam as it has been a strange week and it's only Tuesday. I smiled and said Dillon, you should promote or hire someone to help you out an assistant or a very good secretary. With that we were done and I made a mental note to see if I could help him in a more appropriate way. I didn't want things messed up at this point. Then I thought damn he should look at his pay stub as he is well paid. With Dillon gone I opened the flight plan and it was very technical and very well done. Naturally it was an instrument plan and I was glad I had a more than great memory. I studied it for 10 minutes and then turned on my laptop and started on the company financials. I was quickly bored as I had spent a lot of time on them yesterday. I simple went outside and looked at the construction site. There still wasn't much going on as it was very muddy from the all day rain yesterday. I was at my desk looking over the construction drawings when the Major appeared. Wasting no time he asked if I had had a chance to look at the flight plan. I decided to give him a hard time and said, well not really as there was a long unexpected meeting with Dillon. Jim said, Mike this is important and a lot of armatures will be landing there. Then I just spit out the important parts of the plan and he just shook his head. Then I asked when he was leaving and he said hopefully 10:30. Ok, I'll have a shuttle reserved and all you have to do is give your names and you will be shown to your rooms. With that all finished I called and reserved the two shuttles. I closed up the office and called the Tavern and ordered a chicken salad with Italian dressing, to go and headed for the car. I was early so there was light traffic and I picked up the salad and drove to my place. It was a quiet evening as JJ was shopping for clothes so I finished packing. Then I turned on some classical music and started another Tom Clancy book. Then there was a long shower and a shave and early to bed. I set the alarm for 6:30 and messaged JJ that I wasn't running in the morning. Thanks for staying with this story and for the notes and messages.
