My Alphabet Friends

By Francis Scott

Chapter 18 - Reeve

The party was in full swing. Everyone was going off in groups. I saw Mark join Preston and Holden, so that answered some questions for me. Kendrick was going to be with Graham and Me. Reggie and Jarvis and their wives were in the other master bedroom. Travis Brody Dave and Cal were going to a bedroom. Irving was being joined by the other three strippers. I was sure they would have their doors open and their would be a long of changes through the night. At least I hoped so.

Graham had handled the Open House better than I thought he would. I still felt bad for him that nobody from his family or friends had come and they had shut him down. I hoped I did a good job of keeping him company and occupied.

I was wondering how all the guys were doing? I'm sure they are having a good time. The strippers will make sure of that. I had seen Preston Holden and Mark go into Preston's bedroom. I was hoping that worked out well. Preston knew Mark pretty well so I was sure they were having fun. Soon I brought my attention back to Graham and Kendrick. I purposely had Graham between Kendrick and myself. I wanted to know how much I loved him. We started out slow making out. I was kissing Graham and soon his ears and neck. Kendrick was busy kissing and nibbling on Graham's upper inside thighs with his nose brushing against Graham's big balls. I worked down over Graham's pecs and hard nipples. He was moaning and holding the back of my head. I worked down over his washboard abs and licked and kissed his navel, which made him ticklish. I saw that Kendrick was sucking on Graham's balls and fingering his hole. I moved around on Graham so my cock was over his mouth and I was able to go down his rock hard drooling cock. Kendrick had raised Graham's legs up and was giving him a good rim job. We started deep throating each other. I saw Kendrick lube his big cock and ease into Graham's hole. His hole seemed to swallow Kendrick's cock. We all into a good rhythm and soon we were filling each other with our loads. We lay back exhaused and just reminisced about the Bahamas and how we had brought a little of that tropical experience into the sunroom. We then started planning and talking about another vacation in the Bahamas. We were looking at the celing while we were talking and had our legs draped over each other.

Reggie and Jarvis were busy making out while their wives right next to them were doing the same thing. He made them all hot and horny seeing each other getting off and making out. Reggie and Jarvis got into a hot sixty nine. Their wives watching them followed their lead and did the same thing. After they all came they switched partners and Reggie was with Jennifer and Jarvis was with Deb. They got into some good fucking and sucking. Once they came they switched and they were with their wives doing he same thing to them all over again. Fucking and sucking. They were exhausted after all their hot sex and went back to their best friends and snuggled up and went to sleep. They had kept their bedroom door closed.

That was the way we fell asleep. It sounded like the house was settling down and everyone was tired from sex or was passed out from too much to drink. But the house sounded quiet.

Graham had a restless nights sleep. He kept going over everything in his mind since he had moved in with Bob. Things were ok, but not the way he had hoped. He needed to have a long serious talk with Bob. He was sure Bob was not going to like what he had to say, but he felt he had no other alternative. He woke up before Bob and Kendrick and turned on his side away from them pretending to be asleep. He soon heard Kendrick and then Bob wake up. He heard Bob tell Kendrick to be quiet that I was still asleep. I heard them get out of bed and head to the shower.

Reggie and Jarvis woke up. The wives were already awake and having some morning sex. The guys liked watching them go at it. It always made them hard and horny. Soon them were sucking each other off watching their wives. There were some loud moans and groans when everyone came. The girls told their husbands there were going to stay in the bedroom. They didn't want to be around a bunch of naked men. They would like their breakfast in bed.

Kendrick and Bob had a little fun in the shower sucking and jerking each other other. They dried off. Graham was still asleep so they let him be. They quietly left the bedroom and closed the door and made their way downstairs to the kitchen. They were going to start getting breakfast ready for a large group of naked men. Bob had bought extra groceries for breakfast.

They got the large coffee maker going. Fresh coffee smelled good and they poured themselves a cup. They started the bacon and sausage, making enought for a small army. Soon they started seeing the guys coming downstairs, a few at a time. Some were walking funny. Others complained of sore mouths throats and asses. I saw a lot of red puffy holes walking around. The strippers had come down and were busy in the patio disassembling the stage and sound and lighting equipment and getting loaded into the truck. They told me on one of their trips to the truck they would have to leave after breakfast. They needed to get back to the bar and have things ready for tomorrow morning. They would be going on tour and they might even leave later today to get to their first engagement. The other guys kept coming downstairs and didn't look any better than the others. They were all hanging out on the patio, lounging around and talking about the Open House and the strip show.

I saw Preston with his arm around Holden and Mark. They were talking and it looked like they were saying their goodbyes. Soon we had breakfast ready and took everything out to the patio table. It was going to be buffet style. God those guys could eat. We already had a second batch of breakfast going. Bacon sausage toast eggs pancakes, they were really scrafing down breakfast. I didn't see Graham, he must have been really tired after last night.

Reggie and Jarvis told me they were taking breakfast upstairsto the their wives, they didn't want to be around a bunch of naked men. I just laughed and told them to do what they needed to do. They loaded a big tray with food and I saw them going back upstairs to their bedroom.

Most of the guys were finished eating. I saw the strippers head out to the upstairs bedrooms. They soon came back down dressed and were ready to leave including Mark. We said our goodbyes and I thanked them for another great show. I told them I have a special way of saying thank you and goodbye, they dropped their pants and underwear and I gave each one of the cocks a kiss and suck. Then I kissed each one as they left. I told them Graham thanked them also, that he was still sleeping. I watched them leave. Then I saw Reggie and Jarvis and their wives come down dressed. Reggie said they needed to leave. He had a lot of work to get ready for tomorrow. He and his crew would be starting on one of the new investment building here in town and he needed to have everything ready for the move down here. I didn't give Reggie and Jarvis my special thank you and good bye with their wives standing right their with them. I kissed them all and then watched them leave.

Irving Travis and Brody were the next ones to leave. Irving had to work later and Travis and Brody had some supple shopping to do for they next weekend job. I gave them my special thank you and good bye.

Dave and Cal came down. They both said they were leaving. Cal said he needed to do some work in his office and Dave said he might be helping Cal for awhile. I gave them my special thank you and goodbye.

Kendrick came down with his suitcase. He told me Graham was still sleeping. Kendrick said he had an early flight out and the taxi should be here any minute to pick him up. I gave him my special thank you and good bye. We hugged and kissed and promised to keep planning our next trip to the Bahamas. Soon I opened the gate for the taxi and I saw Kendrick leave.

That only left Preston Holden and Graham. Soon I heard Preston and Holden coming down the stairs arm in arm. "Looks like you guys are getting along well?"

"Yeah, things are working out well. We're going to leave and I'm going over to Holden's. I'll be back later." I gave them my special thank you and good bye. Preston liked that and I watched them leave in each other's cars.

I thought I better check on Graham. It's not like him to sleep this late. I was hoping he was feeling ok and didn't get sick.

I walked upstairs and quietly open the bedroom door. Graham was still laying on his side. I couldn't tell if he was sleeping or crying the way his body was moving up and down. I walked over close to him and I could hear him softly crying. I crawled into bed next to him and put my arms around him. He turned over and he looked terrible. His eyes were red and puffy with tear stains running down his cheeks. He pushed my arms away and managed to say that he needed to talk to me after he showered and dressed, to please leave him and he would be downstairs in a few minutes.

I went away from him in surprise. Graham had never talked like that to me before and I was worried and concerned about what he might have to say. But I gave him his space and left the bedroom and went downstairs wondering what he had to say to me. And he said he was getting dressed. He never got dressed in our house, especcially when it was just the two of us.

Finally I saw Graham walking down the stairs. He was dressed in some casual clothes. He didn't look much better. He saw me in the kitchen and asked me if we could talk in my living room. We walked into the living we sat on opposite side chairs facing each other. Graham just stared at me, maybe a minute or a bit longer, finally he started taking, "Bob, I've appreciated everything you've done for me. However, I feel I'm suffocating in your house."

"But Graham."

"No, let me finish, please. Like I said, I appreciate everything you've done for me. But I need some time to myself. All your ideas have been great, but they've been your ideas. I've never had a chance to express my ideas. You would ask what I thought about your projects, but you had already set everything in motion. I've never had a chance to voice my opinions, or if you did ask me what I thought, you already had everything in motion. The only thing I've been able to do on my own is get my investment firm operating and work with Preston on our investment ideas. Otherwise, everything else was your idea and again, asked me what I thought after the fact. I can't keep going on like this. After the Open House yesterday and not being accepted by my family friends and relatives. I can't take this on top of that. I'm going to go for a long drive now and try to clear my head. I plan to start moving my things out tomorrow. I need time by myself, to see what I really want and where I go from here. I hope you understand what I'm saying. I'll be back later, but not sure if I will want to talk anymore today about this. I'm just anxious to leave and get out there on my own and make my own decision and plans for myself."

Graham got up and left before I had a chance to say anything. I was dumbfounded. I couldn't believe what he told me. I thought we had a great relationship and everything was going fine. I guessed wrong. It looks like now he will leave and I don't know if I will ever see him again or if he will want to have any contact with me. I walked out on the patio and sat down on a lounger and started crying. I started thinking about what Graham had said, and to a big degree he was correct. I didn't realize how much I had pushed my ideas on him without his input. I just thought he liked what we were doing to the house and the hotel, I didn't realize he thought it was my ideas without his suggestions or input. The more I thought about everything. The more correct I saw what Graham had said. I had no idea how I could change things around. I thought I would give him space and give him time. Maybe he would come around and we could get back together again.

I started cleaning the house. The guys did a pretty good job of putting trash away and empty bottles. I'm sure the bartenders and waiters helped. I saw Graham's jock laying on the living room floor and picked it up and held it to my nose. It was pure Graham. I was wondering if I'd ever get that chance to smell Graham again and renew our relationship. I went upstairs to put Graham's jock with his things in the dresser drawer. I saw Graham's suitcases packed and the closet had been emptied of his clothes as well his dresser. I laid his jock on top of one of his suitcases. His garment bags were full of his suies. I guess he was serious about moving out.

I sat on the edge of the bed looking at his packed suitcase and started crying again. How could I have been so insensitive to Graham. He was everything I wanted. Yet every project I asked him what he thought, I was actually slowly pushing him away without even asking because I had already made up my mind and he saw that. I was wondering what time he would get back to our house.

Suddenly I heard the front door open and Graham walked in. He looked at me and went upstairs. I asked him if he wanted any help? He just stared at me without saying anything. It took him two trips get his suitcases and garment bags loaded into his car. I don't know how he managed to fit everything in his small sports car. The only thing he said before he left was that he left his jock on my bed to remember him by. Then he left out the front door, got in his car and I watched him leave. I just collapsed on the floor in a crying heap. What was going to happen now? I was hoping Preston would get home soon so we could have a talk. Maybe he could give me some suggestions on what to do.

The house was eerily quiet. I hardly remembered what it was like being here by myself, and wondered how I would adjust. Maybe I should see a counselor. I will wait for Preston and see what he says.

When Graham left the first time. He drove around town for awhile trying to clear his mind. He was wondering if he was doing he right thing. He knew he needed time to sort out what he really wanted. Bob had been nice to him in his own way. He checked rooms above the diner and the landlord said he had one apartment left that was a two bedroom. Graham put a deposit down on the apartment and paid the first months rent. The landlord said there was parking in the back and a back entrance to the apartments. This would work until he could find something more permanent. He would check with the new housing development and see if they had any lots left and he could have a new house built and still be close to work. He knew when he returned to Bob's house it would have to be a quick in and out. If the stayed he knew he wouldn't leave and that's not what he wanted right now. He slowly drove back to Bob's house, opened the gate, parked and walked into the front door. He didn't know who looked worse, him or Bob. He didn't say anything to Bob and went upstairs and brought down two suitcases with his garment bags over them. Got them loaded into his car. Walked back in and saw his jock on top of one of the suitcases. He thought he'd leave it for Bob as a reminder of his time he had lived in Bob's house. He grabbed his last two suitcase and told Bob he left his jock on his bed and left for his apartment.

I was still on the floor when I heard Preston come into the kitchen. He saw me on the floor by the living room. He knew I was crying. He walked over and pulled me and asked me, "what's wrong Bob?"

"Graham left and took all his things and I don't know if I will ever see him again."

Preston helped me to the living room and he sat down with me. "Tell me everything that happened." Once Bob had finished Preston just there for a couple minutes looking ahead. "Can I suggest something Bob?"

"Of course Preston, I looked for all the help I can get."

"I think the best thing to do is to leave Graham alone and give him time and his own space. I'm sure he has a lot of thinking to do, as well as you. If he decides to relocate don't try to stop him. If he wants to stop the joint accounts, give him the signatures he needs. If he mentions any other changes he wants, go along with it without and arguments or hesitation. I've seen similar things happen with some of my teammeates when I was playing professional football. They would get into arguments with their wives or girlfriends and they would leave. But over time they always got back together. I think they same thing will happen with you and Graham. This just happened and time is a good healer. This may be not what you want to hear. I just telling you from my own observations."

"Thanks Preston. I don't know if I agree with everything, but I see the reasoning behind it. I'll try to get myself together and just give this time and see what happens."

"That's all you can do Bob. You want anything to eat or drink?"

"Maybe just a snack out on the patio with a cold beer, only if you join me."

"Of course, I'll get something warmed up for and get you a cold beer and go relax on a lounger. You've had enough stress for one day."

Graham finally got everything hauled into his apartment. It wasn't very roomy, but it was good enough for him. Having two bedrooms gave him plenty of room for all his clothes. He didn't have any furniture, everything had belonged to Bob. The apartment was furnished. Nothing fancy, but it was good enough. Graham was exhausted and laid on his bed and fell asleep. He woke later hungry. The mall was still open, he'd go over and eat something at the food court. He got up and rinsed his face, got in his car and drove over to the mall.

The mall wasn't busy. Sundays were usually a quieter day at the mall. Graham liked that. He walked into the food court and looked around for something he thought would be good. He saw a chinese place and it was a buffet. He picked out what he wanted and took a coffee to drink. Paid the lady and took a seat and ate his meal. It was ok, not great. Nothing like the way Margaret cooked. Why did he think about Margaret and Bob's house. He was trying to get that out of his mind. He finished his meal and put the plastic dishes in the trash and put the tray on top.

He left the mall. He didn't feel like walking around the mall. He drove back to his apartment. The parking slips were covered which Graham liked and they had a guard at night. He went to his apartment and stripped down, crawled into bed and tried to get some sleep. Monday's were always busy at the investment firm.

Preston brought some dinner out to the patio and asked Bob if wanted another beer. He said no, but would like some coffee if there was some. Preston went back to the kitchen and brought a couple of cups of coffee. Bob poked at his plate of food. He wasn't hungry, but knew he should eat something. He took a few bites. Drank his coffee and thanked Preston for bringing out some dinner. Preston put everything away and came back out to the lounger. "How you feeling Bob?"

"Lonely, I miss Graham so much."

"It will be difficult the first few days. But it will get easier. And who knows, you and Graham may be meeting soon and patching up your differences.

"Don't I wish. I don't see that happening."

"Probably not right now, but it will happen. Just wait and see."

"I hope your right. I would do anything to get Graham back."

"You tired and want to go to bed?"

"Yes and no. I'm physically tired, but my mind is working a hundred miles an hour."

"Let's go to bed and see if you can get some sleep."

"You going to sleep with me Preston?"

"Of course. Did you have any doubts?"

"I wasn't sure. I was hoping you would. But didn't know if you wanted to sleep with someone that's a wreck."

"Your not a wreck Bob. You might feel like it. Just remember, that nothing good comes easy. It's going to take some work on both your parts if you guys want to be back together again. You need to give it time. This is just the first day."

They crawled into bed. Bob snuggled into Preston's big body. Preston felt good curled up around him. Bob felt secure and safe and was hoping what Preston said was true. He dozed off and soon Preston was sound asleep.

Graham instinctly reached over for Bob and then remembered he was in his apartment and had left Bob. He was wondering how Bob was doing. He did miss him. But right now he needed his own time and wasn't sure at this time what he wanted to do about Bob.

He turned out his bedside light and tried to sleep. Graham had a lot on his mind and he needed to sort things out. He finally dozed off, waking off and on all night.

Preston woke up before Bob. He wasn't sure if he wanted to wake Bob and see if he wanted to work out. He thought he better. He ruffled Bob a little suddenly he was awake. "What time is it?"

"It's six and I woke you to see if you wanted to workout?"

"I think I better, maybe it will help me feel better."

Preston agreed with Bob and thought it was a good idea to workout. They crawled out of bed. Bob couldn't help but notice Preston's big cock swaying and back and forth. They make their way downstairs to the locker room and Dave and Holden were just putting on their jocks. Preston walked over and gave Holden a long kiss and hug. I was glad to see them getting along. Dave looked over me and asked, "where's Graham?"

I wasn't sure how to answer him, but thought I'd be truthful. "Graham and I had some disagreements and Graham thought it would be best if he moved out for awhile to think things out."

"Sorry to hear that, I hope you guys can work things out."

"Me to. I think it will just take time."

Preston and me got changed into our jocks. I noticed that Graham's locker was cleaned out. We got warmed up and then get into a good two hour workoout. I didn't know if I felt any better or not. I knew a hot shower would feel good. We got in the shower and with the water hot and steamy. We put two shower heads on pulse and that felt good on our muscles. Soon we were all sporting hardons. We got into two four ways and everybody seemed satisfied after that. We dried off and got dressed and went upstairs for breakfast. I noticed Preston walk over to Margaret and they were talking out of ears range. I was sure he was telling Margaret about Graham and me. Margaret looked over at me a couple of times while they were talking.

We finished breakfast and Margaret stopped me as I was ready to go into the garage. I walked over and she said, "Preston told me a little of what happened between you and Graham. I'm very sorry to hear that for both of you. I hope you two can work things out. I miss seeing Graham here for breakfast."

"I miss him too. It's going to take time. How long, I have no idea. Thanks for your concern Margaret."

I walked into the garage and we hugged and kissed and all headed out to work.

As I got close I realized how much bigger the clinic looked. It had to be at least double in size, maybe even a bit bigger. It looked really nice from the outside, Owen and his crew had done another great job. I walked into the new rear entracne, I could hear some talking in the front waiting room. I walked into the waiting room and Janice Shirley and Quinton had decorated the front waiting room and told me congratulation and hoped to had a long happy life together. I wasn't happy, but I had to put on a good act. I wasn't ready to tell them about Graham and me falling out and not sure if we were every get back together again. I thanked them and told them it was time to get to work. I walked into my office and had many congratulatory emails from friends and family. I wished that would happen to Graham, but I knew it wouldn't.

Graham woke up early and rolled over to snuggle up to Bob. He had to catch himself from almost rolling off the bed. Then he remembered he was by himself in the apartment. He woke up a six, the time they worked out. He just layed back down and rested for another hour. He was tired after another restless night of sleep. He then remembered the gym downtown and he would see about becoming a member He thought Holden might work at that gym, But he could handle that situation about Bob and him easlily with Holden. He finally got up and made himself some breakfast. It seemed strange to make his own breakfast and not have Margaret serving him. He could make a pretty good breakfast and he had bought everything he needed and liked. He finished his breakfast, cleaned the dishes and put everything away. Walked into his small shower and washed himself, dried off and got dressed for work. He thought since work was only a few blocks away. He would walk to work and get in a little walking exercise.

Bob's morning was going fast. I was going to stay in for lunch and have Shirley order the special and have it delivered. He wasn't ready to face Graham yet, however he wasn't even sure if he would be going to he diner. Just as Bob went into his office his phone rang. It was his dad. "Hi dad, what a surprise."

"Your mom and I were very impressed with your Open House, the changes you and Graham have made and your big announcement. I like I told you at your Open House, both your mom and I already knew. We would like to invite you and Graham to the country club Wednesday for lunch."

I almost choked. "Thanks for the invite and I'll see you Wednesday at noon."

"Good, don't forget to tell Graham."

"I won't. See you Wednesday."

I was thinking about what dad said. All the changes Graham and I made to the house. He should have said, all the changes I made to the house, that I never mentioned to Graham and never got his input on anything I wanted to do. Graham was so right. I don't know how I could have been so stupid.

Preston and I had our regular Monday staff meeting. I was glad Preston never mentioned anything about Bob. We went back to our regular duties. I had a little time and I had some calls I wanted to make. First, I wanted to have my name removed from our joint bank account. I wanted to have my own account and nothing with Bob's name on it. Then I wanted to get my phone number changed. Finally, this might be more difficult especially to explain. I want my name removed from the scholarship fund, the hotel and the new sports stadium that will be under construction soon.

I made my call to the bank and they told me that I could come in and sign the papers when I was ready. I asked them if Bob would have to be present at the same time and they said no. But he would have papers to sign and they would contact him. Changing my phone number was a breeze, that went quick. I called the university president and told him about having my name removed. He was disappointed, but said he would take care of it and also for the new sports stadium. When I talked the bank president he said my name would automatically be removed from the hotel when I signed the papers. Good, the only place I had to go after work was the bank.

It was going on lunch time and I buzzed Preston and asked him if we wanted to go to the diner for lunch. I was curious to see if Bob would show up and if he would sit with us. Preston said to give him a couple of minutes and he would be ready. Preston drove us to the diner. I didn't see anybody sitting in Bob's favorite table. We walked in took his favorite table. Millie came over and took our order. She was sorry she couldn't spend more time, but she was busy in the stockroom. Preston and I talked and I asked Preston if he knew if their were any lots available where he was having his house built. Preston said, "I think there is one lot left, maybe two, why?"

"I want to talk to the contractor and have my house built."

Preston gave me a funny look. "Are you sure that's something you want to do?"

"I'm positively sure. How long do they usually work at the new housing site?"

"I think at least till six maybe later."

"Good, I'll swing by after work and talk with him." I was glad Preston didn't press me anymore about Bob. This was something I wanted to do for myself. If we were to ever get back together again, I could rent or sell the house. I will go by the bank first and sign my papers and then I will still have time to the housing project to talk to the contractor.

Shirley brought my lunch in and it was delicious. We had a staff coffee maker and I had a cup of ccffee with my lunch. I was wondering if Graham and Preston went to the diner for lunch. I wasn't ready for that and I didn't want to have a confrontation with Graham.

I finished my lunch and got ready for my first afternoon patient. The new expanded clinic was working out perfect. Quinton like having his own office and exam room. I was getting ready when my phone rang. I was wondering who was calling now. I looked at the phone and I knew it was a call from the hopital. "Hello this is Bob, may I help you?"

"Hi Bob, this it he chief of staff at the hospital. I was wondering if you could come by my office when you finish work for the day?"

"Sure, I could be to your office just after five."

"That will work. See you then.'

I was wondering what was up with the chief of staff. He had never called me before. I'll be there after work and see what's going on.

The afternoon went well. Quinton pulled me aside and asked my opinion about a patient. We discussed the situation and he agreed with my opinion. We generally reviewed x-rays together. Janice liked having more freedom and being able to work between the hospital and clinic. She still a lot of our leg work, which I was grateful for. And took care of all of our lab work. I was glad. I didn't want to have to go to the hospital and bump into Ethan or Mark. It was closing time and we all left and went our separate ways.

I just got into my SUV and I got a call from the bank. That surprised me, I was wondering what that was all about. "Hello, this is Bob."

"Hi Bob, this the president's secretary. He has a couple of forms he would like you to sign if you have time to come by?"

"How much longer will you be at work? I have an appointment to see the chief of staff at the hospital."

"We are here until six, but I can tell the bank president you will be coming later and I know he will wait. I will make sure the guard lets you in, if it's after closing time."

I thanked her and told her I would try to get to the bank as soon as I could.

The hospital wasn't that far from the clinic. One of the advantage fo living in a small town. I pulled dinto the visitor's parking and walked in where the chief of staff's office was located. His secretary told me to take a seat and she would let the chife of staff know you were here. I watched her walk into his office and they talked for a couple of minutes. It looked like someone else was in the office with the chief of staff.

Soon the secretary came back out of the office and told me I could go in. I walked in and the chief of staff and nother doctor stood up and shook hands with me. We all sat back down. The chief of staff told me the reason for asking me to come in was that Reeve that was sitting next to me, was going to start his internship. And asked me if I would be Reeve's supervising physician for his internship.

I looked at the chief of staff and and then at Reeve. "Isn't an internship for two years."

"Yes it is Bob," said the chief of staff. "However, you would only be supervising a part of his internship and that would be only for one year or less, depending on how fast you felt Reeve was learning and performning."

"What internship training would Reeve be having with me?"

"Reeve needs to have his radiology training, pediatrics and general or family medicine."

"As you probably know, Quinton is working at the clinic as a pedicatrician. Would he be able to do Reeve's training for that part of his education?"

"Yes, as long as you oversee everything that is going on write out Reeve's reports."

"Ok, I don't see any problem with that. But I'm curious as why we decided on me as one of Reeve's supervisors and trainer?"

"Well, it was quite easy Bob. You were one of our top students here studying medicine. You've been receiving great reviews and your practice is growing and becoming quite famous in this small town."

"That's nice to hear. I would be glad to work with Reeve and have him do part of his internship at the clinic. How soon would his internship start?"

"We're looking at starting next Monday, that will give me time to finish the paperwork. I will have forms for you to use for his internship training. Reeve will bring them with him on Monday. What time do you start work?"

"We start work at eight in the morning and work until five or until we finish the last patient."

Finally we looked at Reeve. He said, "that's perfect and I am glad you are goint to do part of my internship training and can't wait to get started on Monday."

We all shook hands and I left the office.

It was just after five thirty. I thought it was later so I could still get to the bank before closing time. At least the bank wasn't too far from the hospital. I pulled into the bank's parking and walked to the bank president's office. I thought I had seen Graham, but I wasn't sure, I was in a hurry and didn't pay that much attention. The secretary told me the president would be with me in a just a moment. The president walked out of his office, I stood and we shook hands, "please come in Bob and take a seat."

"I thought I had signed all the papers before with Graham?"

"You both had. However, Graham has made some changes and now I need signatures on the new forms."

"New forms?"

"Yes, Graham doesn't want a joint account. He wants his own private account."

"Don't we both need to be present to sign the new forms?"

"Under these circumstances, legally no. All I need is both your signatures and then the forms become legal documents of the changes. Graham just signed his forms, you might have seen him on his way out. Also, with him own personal account that also drops him as a joint co-owner of the hotel. That was something he wanted." The president then moved the forms over to me and showed me where I needed to sign.

I was speechless. My hand was shaking and I had a hard time signing the forms. "Is that all?"

"Yes, I just needed your signature on these forms and now the changes are officially complete."

"Is there anything else?"

"No, that completes everything I needed." We stood up and shook hands and I couldn't get out of the bank fast enough.

I couldn't believe what Graham had done. I was starting to realize how serious he was about cutting all ties with our joint assets. I was wondering what other surprises would happen.

Graham and Preston finished their day. They left their office building. Preston drove back to Bob's house and Graham drove to the housing construction site.

Graham parked by the curb. It looked like Sam's house was about finished and they were getting ready to start on Preston's. He got out of his car and walked over to where a group of men were talking. "Is the foreman here, or someone that's in charge of the contruction?" One man excused himself from the group of men and walked over to Graham.

"How can I help you?"

"I was wondering if their were any lots left for construction?"

"I have two lots left that I can show you."

"Yes, I'd like that."

Graham followed the construction boss. The two lots were on the opposite sides of the street facing each other. They both looked to be about the same size. They must have been oversized lots. Or two regular lots that were put together. "Both lots look the same."

"They are, they're both are exactly the same size. What do you think? Something you'd be interested in?"

"Definitely. Do you have the contracts for the lots and houses?"

"I do let's walk over to the trailer and we can start the paperwork."

I thought the trailer would be sweltering, being right out in the open sun. Actually, it was quite comfortable inside. They used their construction generator to have a/c in the trailer. The contruction boss opened a file cabinet and took out a couple of forms. He said, "the first form is for the purchase of the lot, the second form is for the construction of the house. We'll do the lot first and get that approved through your bank, that will give you a couple of days to look over the contract on the house and different house designs to choose from. I will email you a slideshow of the different house designs we offer with pool or without a pool and landscaping. Once we've finished all the houses, this will become a gated community with security guards."

I signed the lot form and put down my bank information. I gave the construction boss my email address and phone number. He said it would take two to three days for the bank approval. Once he had the bank approval we'd go over the house designs and the one I had chosen and then sign the contract for the house and yard work.

I thanked him. We shook hands and I took the contract back to my car and drove to my apartment. I didn't like cooking so I thought I'd order a pizza to be delivered and that would give me time to look over the lot contract and the housing contract and look over the slideshow and start getting some ideas on my new house. The lots were huge, it would give me a big yard. I wasn't sure what I wanted to do with all the space, but I knew when I looked at the slideshow, I'd start getting some ideas.

Preston got home before Bob. Margaret was on her way out. Preston said his goodbye to Margaret. He walked into the house and it seemed kind of eerie being the only one home. He started thinking about Bob and Graham. He knew they would eventually get back together. They both seemed pretty stubborn. It was only the second day since Graham left. It would take time for them to realize how much they miss each other and what they had together. Anyone, Preston went up to his bedroom and stripped down. He was getting used to being naked in the house. It was something he would do when he had his own house.

Soon the kitchen door opened and Bob walked in. He looked exhausted and his mind was miles away. Preston walked over to Bob and gave him a hug and kiss. Bob liked that from Preston, but he missed it more from Graham. "Bob your not looking so good, what don't you get changed and I'll get us a couple of cold beers."

"Huh, what a couple of beers. I'll get changed and be back down."

Bob still couldn't believe what Graham had done with their joint accounts. He wondered what else Graham had done. He stripped out of his clothes and went back downstairs. He knew he was forgetting something, but with Graham leaving he hand't been thinking too straight.

Preston handed Bob a beer and then led Bob out to the patio. He didn't think going to the sunroom right now would be a good idea. They sat on loungers close to each other. Then Bob remembered what he should do. I had forgot to invite Anthony and Roland to the Open House and I need to call Sam, so he doesn't mention the Open House to them, the next time he talks to them. I picked up my cell phone and called Sam. "Hi, Bob, what's up? And thanks for inviting me to your Open House. I'm going to be having one soon.

"I remembered I forgot to invite Anthony and Roland to the Open House, I was hoping when you talked to the next, not to mention the Open House."

"Sure Bob, I can do that. I thought it was funny they weren't invited, but it wasn't my place to say anything."

"It was just a major slip on my part. How's everything at the hotel?"

"Hotel is running like clock work. Staying full and booked way ahead. The meeting room and banquet room are getting used more and more. The guests are really enjoying the sunroom and all its amenities. No complaints from anyone, just a lot compliments on the hotel."

"That's good to hear. I need to run here, talk to you soon."

I checked my phone to see if I had any missed calls or messages. I was hoping there would be something from Graham, nothing.

Preston had watched and listened to me on the phone. He knew that I wished Graham was here, but he knew not to mention Graham. Finally Preston said, "Graham is going to have a new house built in the new housing development."

"That's nice." I didn't really know what Preston expected me to say and I was trying to sound like I wasn't interested. Preston didn't mention Graham anymore and I was glad. Finally he asked me, "what would like to do the rest of the evening?"

"Let's see if there is a good game on and then I'll make dinner reservations later at the Italian Restaurant in the mall."

Preston went to the kitchen and I could hear him rustling around in the frig. I shouldn't rely on Preston to wait on me, after all, he's a house guest and I don't need any pity. I went to the kitchen to see what Preston was doing. He had two cold beers out and was restocking the frig. We took our beers out to the patio. We lounged and drank our beer. I drank just one beer, I didn't want to curb my appetite for dinner later. I needed to start moving on and forget about Graham. But, that wasn't working. All I could think about was how much I missed him. Preston saw my day dreaming. "Missing Graham?"

"More than you can imagine."

"I thought so. Why don't you go upstairs and get comfortable on the bed and I'll up in a couple of minutes to join you?"

"That sounds like a good idea. I'll be waiting for you."

Graham arrived at his apartment. He was anxious to view the slideshow and see what the options were on building a new house. He set the contracts down on the bed, stripped down and put a jock on. He did this almost instinctively. He thought why am I doing this. I'm not living at Bob's house anymore. He took the jock off and got on the bed naked. Took his laptop and booted it. He checked his programs and found the slideshow. He got it started and the homes looked amazing. He definitely wanted a pool and jacuzzi combination. Graham wanted everything on one level. He wasn't sure how many bedrooms and if he wanted a basement or not. He thought if ever decided to sell or rent the house to a family, a basement might be good to have. He saw one house with a master bedroom and four smaller guest bedrooms. He liked the layout of that house, all the rooms were big. Then he could have a covered patio with a kitchen island, pool and jacuzzi. That was the house he wanted. He shut down his laptop and put it up on the small desk in the apartment.

Graham dozed off. He was more tired than he thought he was. He started dreaming about when he and Bob were kids. How they were good friends and did everything together right through high school. Once they graduated and went to college, Graham had transferred to a different university and then he came back to the his hometown and got reacquainted with Bob and their friendship blossomed into love for each other. Graham kept dreaming and soon he started crying in his sleep. He was dreaming of how much he missed Bob and wished they were still together. Suddenly he woke up. He remembered most of his dream. Did he really miss Bob that much. Maybe he did. But he wasn't ready for any kind of reconciliation with Bob, at least not in the immediate future. Graham's dream had stirred up his feelings for Bob. He needed to do something or go somewhere to get his thoughts of Bob out of his mind.

While Bob was waiting in his bed for Preston. He dozed. The stress of not having Graham and the things he was doing to make their separation permanent had tired him out. He started dreaming of when they were kids, how much fun they had together and then it was hard for Bob when Graham transferred to a different university. He didn'd know if would see his best friend again. Then when Graham had returned to his hometown. They became good friends all over again and eventually lovers. Then he dreamed about how everything went downhill and Graham moving out. Bob started crying in his sleep. He woke up and saw Preston looking at him.

"Sorry, did I wake you Bob?"

"No, I woke up from a dream and saw you standing here."

"A dream about Graham?"

"Yeah. I was just trying to forget all about it."

"Are you sure you want to?"

"What do you mean?"

"Usually when you dream about someone, especially a close friend for a long time, it's because you still miss them."

"I don't know about that. How about if we take a warm shower together. I think you'll feel better after that. Besides I like your shower."

That made Bob smile. He liked the new shower too. He got up out of bed and followed Preston to the shower. Preston got the water running and Bob joined him. They cleaned each other getting hard and horny. Finally Preston pulled Bob back into him as he slowly slid his big cock up Bob's hole. Bob moaned, not from pain, but from pleasure. Preston held Bob tight to him letting the warm water run over their bodies. He kissed Bob's ears and neck and squeezed Bob's hard nips. He saw Bob start stroking his hard cock and buck back and forth. Driving Preston's cock further up his hole and making his stroking go faster. Preston let Bob take over. He didn't have to do anything with Bob's bucking back and forth. Soon he started moaning louder, his cock stiffened in Bob's tight warm hole and he blasted way up his hole. That sent Bob over the edge and he splattered a big load all over the shower wall. They rinsed their cum down the drain. Bob turned and he hugged and kissed Preston and told him how much he needed that.

Preston liked hearing that from Bob. He was hoping he could fill in the gaps left by Graham. They laid back on the bed after their hot shower and Bob looked at the clock. It was going on six. He asked Preston if he would like to go to the Italian Restaurant in the mall. Preston said sure, he had never been there. Bob picked up his cell phone and made reservation for two at six thirty. Preston heard the time and we agreed we should start getting ready for dinner.

Graham checked the time and saw it was going on six. Since he didn't like to cook and wasn't a good cook, he would make reservations at the Italian Restaurant for six thirty. He picked up his cell phone off the bed and called the Italiam Restaurant and made reservations for one at six thirty. He told them he would like one of the private dining rooms. The person answering the phone asked Graham if he would like a table or booth. Graham was a little irritated and told her he would like one of the private dining rooms. She told Graham that she had been informed that your meals were no longer on the house and that the private dining rooms were off limits. He asked her why. She said she was told by the owner, it was because you weren't a co-owner of the hotel any longer. "Fine," said Graham. "I'll take a small table for two at six thirty." "Very good Mr. Graham, we'll see you at six thirty."

Graham was pissed. He wasn't expecting that. He had some shopping he wanted to do at the mall, so he would go to the Italian Restaurant and do his shopping after. The mall stayed open till ten so he would have plenty of time to do buy a few things. He got dressed and headed out to the mall. Mumbling and grumbling under his breath.

Bob and Graham checked each other out. They thought they looked pretty good. They decided to go in Bob's SUV. They pulled into a parking spot by the restaurant. That sure looked like Graham's car parked over their. He mentioned it to Preston and he said it was Graham's car. He asked me if I felt ok. I told him sure. We walked to the front door and one of the waiters opened it for us and took us back to one of the private dining rooms. Graham happened to be looking at the menu and didn't notice Bob and Preston come in. He looked out the window while he was waiting to order and he saw Bob's SUV parked close to his car. He wondered when Bob got here.

Preston told Bob he didn't know dining rooms at restaurants like this existed. Bob explained about being a co-owner of the hotel and how the hotel had helped the ecomony and he had unlimited free dining here at the restaurant and Milo's Supper Club. He told Preston they would go to Milo's on the weekend. And he would see another private dining room. They enjoyed their food. Another dinner prepared especially for Bob by the chef.

Graham was not a happy camper. He understood by not being a co-owner of the hotel he would lose some of his perks, but he didn't think they would take away his free meals here. Graham thought Bob probably brought Preston with him, in his place. Why did he just think that. It was his decision to have a private bank account and not a joint account with Bob. This was another way of not being controlled by Bob and being told what they would do together. Graham still enjoyed his dinner. It was good, but didn't compare to the private dining room.

Bob and Preston enjoyed an excellent dinner prepared by the chef especially for them. Preston had dessert. It made Bob think of Graham, how he always had dessert. Preston was bigger than Graham, so having dessert was no surprise to Bob. Bob had an after dinner drink while Preston ate his dessert. They finished and left a tip for the waiter. The waiter opened the door as they left the restaurant.

Graham was also finishing and had paid for his dinner. He got up and was ready to leave when he saw Bob and Preston going out the door. He went quickly to the door and out to his car. He saw Bob and Preston standing by Bob's SUV. Bob happened to turn and saw Graham looking at him. They stared at each other and looked like they were going to say something, but they both got in their vehicles and left.

Graham was thinking, it looked like Bob wanted to say something to him. Why did I take off right away. Oh well, what would I say to him and what would he want to say to me. After all I was the one that left. Oh well, I don't really care. The less I see of Bob he better

Bob was thinking as he was driving home, that he looked like Graham wanted to say something to him. Why did I take off right away. I would have listened to Graham, I may not have responded, but he seemed in a hurry and took off right away. I guess I did to. Oh well, that's the way it goes. Preston looked over at me. "Why didn't you say something to Graham, he looked like he wanted to talk?"

"I wasn't ready to hear anything from him."

"Come on Bob, you know that's not true. The way you too stared at each other, the attraction is still there. Why don't you start going to the diner and maybe being in public it will make it easier to talk to each other."

"I don't know if I want to talk to him. The things he said when walked out, I'm not ready to talk to him. If he wants to say something first that might be different."

Preston thought to himself, and it would be easy enough to get Graham to go to the diner, he could always call Bob and see if wanted to meet at the diner for lunch. That's what he would do tomorrow and see what happens. Preston thought he needed to get the ball rolling between Bob and Graham.

Bob and Preston got home and stripped down and put on jocks. Preston looked mighty fine in his jock. I could look at him all day and never get tired. We went downstairs and watched a movie.

Graham drove around to the other side of the mall. The stores he wanted to go to were located close to his entrance. He walked in and walked around finding the stores, made his purchases and left. He got home to his apartment and stripped down. Why did he keep doing that, he wasn't living at Bob's house anymore. He did like being naked and he looked pretty good. He needed go to the gym and pay his membership and get started working out. He put the tv on and watched a movie.

The movie finished and Bob and Preston went up to Bob's bedroom and went to bed. He wanted Preston to snuggle up to him. He just needed some comforting and relaxing and try to get some sleep. He mentioned to Preston that tomorrow he had his luncheon with his parents at the country club, so he wouldn't be going to the diner. Soon they both drifted off to sleep at almost the same time. Bob liked Preston's big cock nestled up between his ass cheeks.

Graham fell asleep with the tv going and his nightstand light on.

Bob woke up with Preston still pressed up behind him. What a nice way to wake up. Bob felt rested. This was the first since Graham had left. He was dreading his luncheon with his parents. But he knew he would have their support and could tell them everything and get their input on what he should do next. That made him feel sad. Graham had no one he could confide in, and he was keeping all this inside and not able to get it out. Soon Bob felt Preston stir and they got up to go downstairs and workout. Bob knew Preston was looking forward to seeing Holden.

Holden and Dave were in their jocks and already warming up on the treadmills. Preston and I put on our jocks and joined them. Holden got off his treadmill and gave Preston a long hug and kiss. Dave and I just watched them smiling. We got in our workout and then showered. Showering was always fun with Dave and Holden. We jerked each other off and then sucked each other. We dried each other off, got dressed and went upstairs for breakfast. Margaret was busy as usual and had breakfast waiting for us. She got the patio table ready and we ate our breakfast outside. It felt a little cooler. I was wondering if our cooler weather was going to start earlier this year. It didn't last long usually only a couple of days. But sometimes it would get cold enough we would get some frost. We ate quick and thanked Margaret for a wonderful breakfast. We hugged and kissed in the garage and left for work.

Graham woke up and was a little disoriented. He still was getting used to living in the apartment. He turned off the tv and the night light. He was going to put on his jock and go downstairs to workout. He really was out of it. I'm in an apartment, not in Bob's house, he kept saying to himself. He was starting to miss Bob more and more, but he felt he needed to stick to his plans. He would meet with the construction boss after work and finalize the plans for his house and yard. Graham took a shower and dried off. He put some boxers on. He didn't want anything getting burned when he made his breakfast. He finished eating breakfast, cleaned his little kitchen and got dressed for work. He would walk to work for the exercise.

He walked out and locked his apartment. The weather seemed a bit cooler this morning. He was wondering if they had a cold front coming in. He would check the weather when he read over the paper at work. He walked into the the office building and Preston was already busy in his office. They waved to each other and Graham made his way back to his office.

Bob arrived at the clinic. Everyone was already there, Shirley Janice and Quinton. He walked in through the new back entrance and everyone said their good mornings and started getting ready for another day of work. Quinton poked his head in my office and asked me if I had a couple of minutes. I told him to take a seat. "What's up Quinton, is everything ok?"

"Everything is perfect Bob. That's what I wanted to tell you. I really enjoy working here and the people have been very welcoming and nice to me."

"I'm glad to hear that. I've heard some very nice compliments about how professional you are and how pleased the patients are with you."

"That's nice hear. Being a new doctor, I wasn't sure what to expect. I just did what I'm trained to do to the best of my ability and I'm glad that I'm being accepted."

"Well Quinton, I think we better get ready for another day."

"Ok Bob, and thanks for sharing that information with me. It means a lot."

"Get out of this office, before I fire you."

Quinton knew I was joking and I could hear him chuckling as he walked back to his office.

The morning went fast for me. And I was leaving a few minutes early for my luncheon with mom and dad. I told Shirley on my way out to order lunch for Quinton and have the diner put it on my tab.

It felt colder out. I hadn't checked the weather in the daily paper. It didn't take long and soon I was making the long entrance drive to the country club. I saw my dad's big S-series Mercedes Benz parked by the front entrance. I parked a couple of places over and walked up the steps to the entrance to the country club. The workers at the club new me, even though I was not a member. I made my way to the dining and could see my parents sitting on a side table that looked out to the golf course.

I walked in. And my mom and dad saw. I could see my mom talking to my dad. She was telling him that something was wrong. Just by the way I walked and looked and especially when she didn't see Graham with me. I gave my dad a hug and hand shake. I gave mom a peck on the cheek. Right away my mom started, "what's wrong Bob? You know you can tell us anything."

I thought I better get this over with right away. I knew I'd feel better once I told them what happened. I explained everything to mom and dad. They just sat and listened until I finished. Mom being mom was the first to speak when I finished. "Oh Bob, honey, I'm so sorry for you, have you and Graham talked?"

"No Graham has been avoiding me and we haven't talked since he moved out. Preston is staying at my house until his new home is built. So it helps having him around."

My dad was still quiet and hadn't said anything. Finally my dad said, "Bob, after listening to everything you said and the way you explained everything. I think you should work at my firm." That got a chuckle out of me. My dad then went on, "however I think Graham did the right thing by the way you described the circumstances. I think I would have walked out to. I think the best thing right now, is to leave Graham alone and let him settle down and give him time to think. It's going to take Graham some time. He has a lot of things to sort out and decisions to make. Normally, I would ask you if you want me to talk to him, but in this case, I'm not going to do that. I think this is something strickly between the two of you. And something the two of you need to work out."

After my dad's speech, we ate a delicious lunch and we all needed to leave and get back to work. On our way out, my dad took me to the side and told me. "Bob, at your Open House I could see the love you and Graham have for each other. Don't do anything to jeopardize that. Give Graham the space and time he needs. In time, he will reconsider and I'm sure you two will be back together and much stronger the second time around."

"Thanks dad, I needed to hear that."

Dad and I shook hands in the parking lot and I gave my mother another kiss and we left for our respective jobs.

As lunch time approached, Graham was going to walk to the diner and get in some more exercise. Preston was busy with meetings and wouldn't be able to make lunch today. Graham was wondering if Bob would show up. He would take Bob's favorite table and see what happens. He walked in and the diner was quiet. He saw Millie come walking over to the table and was wondering how Millie was going to act today. "Well tall dark and handsome, what can I get you?"

"How about a side of Millie?"

"Aren't we the cute one today. I suppose you think that's pretty funny?"

"Actually, I do. I'll take the special and a black coffee."

"I'll see if we have anything left. I hope it's not burnt."

I heard Millie laughing all the way to the kitchen. Millie was just what I needed today. I had been down all morning. I've started missing Bob more and more every day. It will be good to go to the housing site and get my mind on something else. Millie came out with my lunch and coffee. "Today's your lucky day. Nothing is burnt and I still had some coffee left."

"Thanks Millie. I still love you."

"Don't I wish. Enjoy your lunch. Charmer."

That got a chuckle out of me. I ate my lunch paid and gave Millie a good sized tip and walked back to work.

I left the diner and walked back to my office building. The weather was definitely changing. I needed to check the weather in the paper when I got back to work.

Bev and John talked at the country club after Robert left. Bev being a typical mother was more concerned than John was. But the more she thought about what John had said, the more she agreed with him. He said, "you thinking about Bob?"

"Yes, and what you said. I think your right and I just hope they can work things out."

"I'm sure they will, it will just take time.

Bob got back to the clinic a few minutes late. Shirley told him his first afternoon patient was running a few minutes late. Bob went into his office and checked the weather in the paper. It said a cold front was moving in. At this time it was too early to tell how cold it would get and how long it would last. But it would be close to freezing temperatures. Bob's afternoon appointment arrived and the rest of his afternoon went quick. Quinton was still working with a mother and twin girls. He was running late. I told the ladies bye and left for home.

Graham and Preston were having a busy afternoon. They had meetings with contruction bids on the new investment sites and were also meeting with contractors that were already approved. Owen and Reggie had shown and were busy with Graham and Preston. They weren't sure how long their meetings would last. They took a short break and Preston went back to his office to call Bob. He told Bob about the meetings going on and he wasn't sure how long they would last. Bob reminded Preston that Holden was coming over to give them massages. Preston had forgot about that as busy as he was. He told Bob he would try to get back as soon as possible and tell Holden to wait for him, unless it started getting late.

Reggie Owen and Graham were talking. Reggie and Owen asked Graham how Bob was and that they really enjoyed the Open House. He briefly told them that he had a falling out with Bob after the Open House and he moved out. They both told Graham he had their support and if their was anything they could do, they would be glad to help them get back together. Graham thanked them just as Preston walked back into their meeting room. They all sat back down and got back to business.

Reggie was thinking about Bob and how devastated he must be. He thought when they finished their meeting he would call Deb and tell her what happened with Bob and Graham and stay overnight and come home tomorrow. Owen Graham and Preston were looking at Reggie. "Sorry, guys was just thinking about a few things. I'm back with you now."

They all gave Reggie a funny look and got back to their meeting.

Bob arrived home. It sure felt colder coming home than when he went to work. Margaret was finishing her day when he walked into the kitchen. He told Margaret bye and she left. He noticed she was wearing a sweater coat when she left. He thought he might pull out some warmer clothes for work. He went upstairs and stripped down and put a jock on. The pouch in his jock was nice and full and his big balls were almost hanging out on one side of is jock. He though he'd eat dinner with Holden and Preston. He wasn't that hungry anyhow. He went into the kitchen and grabbed a beer and turned the tv on to the weather channel. Not much change in the forecast. It showed on the weather map the cold front that was moving in. The weatherman said the front was moving slow and probably be arrived full force for at least three or four days. And they still didn't know how cold it would get and how long the front would stay in the area. The weather finished and it went back to the news. Bob's cell phone rang and it was Sam. "Hi Sam, what's up?"

"Calling to let you know I'm having my Open House this Saturday starting around noon. You don't know to bring anything, just Graham. By the way, can you tell Graham about the Open house, I tried calling him put it said that his phone number was no longer in service."

"Ok, Sam. I'll pass the message on and thanks for the invite."

"My pleasure, after your great Open House, I hope mine comes close to yours. Look forward to seeing both of you at noon on Saturday, and I like I told you, there will be a big surprise for you and Graham.

Bob went back to watching the news. Nothing much of interest on the news. He then started thinking about Graham and wondering how he was doing. Where he was living and how he was getting along. He remembered Preston telling him that Graham was going to have a new house built at the housing project.

Graham and Preston's meeting finally finished. They were able to finalize things quicker than they thought and soon they were all heading out. It was just going on six.

Reggie and Preston went to Bob's house, while Graham went to the housing site to talk to the construction boss.

Graham pulled in and saw Sam's finished house and yard. It looked spectacular, Graham wondered what he would be doing with such a big house and it now looked like they were starting on Preston's house which was going to be big too. Graham saw the construction boss and walked over to him. They talked for a bit and the boss thought Graham wasn't going to make it. Graham told him he was running late with meetings. He asked Graham if he had decided on a house and the kind of yard he wanted. He told him he had. They walked into the air conditioned trailer, which Graham didn't think they needed with the cooler weather. The construction boss booted his laptop and started the slideshow. He told Graham to touch the house he liked and the slideshow would stop. The houses moved by, one by one until the house Graham liked appeared on the screen. He touched the house to stop the slideshow. That's a good choice Graham, it's one of our favorite designs, however, your the first one to use it. Now let's look at what kind of yard you'd like. The boss started the slideshow on the yards with landscaping pools and jacuzzis. Graham touched the one he liked and aked if it could be modified. The boss said sure. They used Zane's landscaping and pool company for the outside work and I could meet with him and go over the changes I would like. The boss said Graham had been approved for the lot and the bank had told the construction boss that Graham was good for any size house he wanted with whatever landscaping he wanted. He asked Graham if he could come back tomorrow to the sign the contract on the house and then they could go over what materials and design changes Graham might have for the interior. That finished their short meeting. They stood up and shook hands and Graham left for his apartment and the construction boss went back to talk to his crew working on Preston's house.

Preston and Reggie pulled into Bob's front yard and Preston parked in the garage and Reggie parked by the garage. Bob was still watching tv when he heard the kitchen door. He Preston walk in followed by Reggie. He was surprised to see his brother. He walked over and gave them both hugs and kisses which they returned. "Reggie, what a surprise, wasn't expecting to see you."

"Well, we had a meeting today about some of the investment ideas. And when we took a break Preston told me briefly about you and Graham falling out and Graham leaving. I thought you could use some brotherly company and will stay overnight if that's ok?"

"Come on Reggie, you know you don't have to ask me that. My house is your house. I'm really glad to see you."

"Let me make a quick call to Deb and let her know I'm staying over and will give her a short account about you and Graham and I know she'll encourage me to stay."

Reggie walked out onto the patio and make his call to Deb.

Preston looked at Bob. "I hope your not upset I said something to Reggie about you and Graham. I felt I needed to and that you could use your brother here for a short time?"

"Not at all Preston. I'm glad he's here."

"Should we wait for Holden and all eat together, either before massages or after massages?"

"If it goes like last time. I think we'd better eat first and then have our massages."

I heard hold pull up outside and he parked by Reggie. He was wondering who owned the big truck. He walked in through the front and Preston and I greeted him. Holden and I hugged and kissed and then it was Preston's turn. Of course their hug and kiss lasted much longer until I told them to break for air.

Reggie walked in and said everything was fine was Deb. He saw Holden and walked over and gave him a kiss and hug. Holden remembered Reggie being my brother. How about if one of you guys gets us all beers and I'll get some dinner ready and then we can have our massages.

Preston with his big hands easily got four beers out of the frig in one hand. He handed one to me and then walked out to the guys and asked them if they wanted their beers on the patio. Reggie said he was getting pretty cool. They decided to go to the sunroom. I hadn't been in the sunroom since Graham left. I wasn't sure how I was going to react when I went up their. Dinner was finished and I managed to get everything on one big tray that I hauled up to the sunroom. I managed to open the door and still hold onto the tray. I walked in and put the tray down on one of the bigger round tables where the guys were sitting. We unloaded the tray and ate our dinner. I didn't look around much. I still wasn't sure about being back in the sunroom. Preston looked at me and asked me, "you doing ok Bob?"

"Yeah, I'm ok. It's just this is the first I've been in the sunroom since Graham left."

"Everyone got quiet after I said that and we ate our dinner in silence."

Finally we finished eating and Holden asked, "who wants their massage first?"

"I told Holden I'd go first."

Holden and I walked into the massage room and Holden got everything ready while I slid my jock off and got postioned on the massage table with everything adjusted.

Preston and Reggie were talking while I got my massage. Reggie asked Preston, "how is my brother doing?"

"I really don't know Reggie, he doesn't talk about it much. He's keeping everything inside. All he's said is he's not presssuring Graham and will give Graham as much time as he needs."

"That sounds like Bob. It would do the same thing when we were kids at home. If something happened, he wouldn't say much of anything and would just like time make it pass. That sounds like what he is doing now."

"Exactly." Preston and Reggie took everything back to the kitchen and straightened the kitchen and put everything away in the frig. On their way back to the sunroom, Reggie stopped in Bob's bedroom and took all his clothes off. Preston could stop admiring Reggie's body. All his construction work must had kept in good shape. He was muscular and hung about the same size a Bob.

"You like what you see Preston?"

"Very much, I think it will be an interesting evening."
