Luke arrived at the hospital with an overpowering force of Executive Services Security with visible sidearms and bullpup rifles. Met by the hospital administrator, Luke asked for the Nursing Director and Medical Director to join them so he only had to say this once and there was no misunderstandings.

 

We are here under the orders of the President of the United States who has authorized the use of lethal force. We will protect our injured associate with all the force necessary and anyone who refuses a directive given by one of our men and we sense any threat to your patient... that person will quickly end up DEAD! I hope you will make your staff well aware of our policy and will work cooperatively with us to protect our associate, your patient.

 

The doctors were successful in getting Yuuto's heart to function again and now they had to figure out the cause and if any damage was done. It only took a few hours to learn Yuuto had been infected with a virus which had violently attacked his heart muscle. So much of his heart muscle had been damaged the doctors felt Yuuto wouldn't survive without a heart transplant.

 

With Yuuto's rare blood type finding a match from any available donor was impossible. SecDef by chance was reading an internal report of a soldier dying in a freak accident during training. He had the same rare blood type as Yuuto. Asking if the soldier had completed an organ donor card, once confirmed, SecDef ordered the organs immediately harvested and the heart transported to Washington.

 

Time was crucial and an armed military escort brought the donor heart to the nearest airfield where a F15 fighter jet was waiting to take it to Washington at Mach 2.5. A mass of security met the fighter jet and immediately the heart was racing to the hospital with every major intersection blocked by local police so as not to imped the transport. The hospital and physicians were amazed at how quickly such a rare heart could be obtained and was immediately ready to do the transplant.

 

Yuuto's partner had already signed the surgical consent and I paced the Oval Office until Yuuto was out of surgery and moved into recovery. Rejection of the transplant was always possible, and I prayed that Yuuto wasn't on Roger's list today. Yuuto had done so much to provide for world peace and saved so many lives he deserved to live and enjoy his family and friends.

 

It was days before we would initially know if there was any rejection but the news each day brought hope that Yuuto would make a full recovery. He would be taking medication the rest of his life, but the task now was to figure out how he contracted such a virulent virus.

 

As the tissue samples were sent to the CDC for evaluation, it only took a few days for the report to be issued this virus had been developed by our major foe Russia and had been used previously by the rogue nation of North Korea. We could only accept it was no longer acceptable to think Yuuto could fly under the radar of our foes. It would be disastrous to our Country and to the World if Yuuto were to die. Yuuto still had much to contribute and that included training his new protιgιs.

 

Security was tight when I visited Yuuto in the Hospital and the little imp smiled when he told me he had a hot male nurse taking care of him. After a stern look from his partner, Yuuto smiled and commented looking wasn't violating their wedding vows. "When I'm too old to look and enjoy a hot stud I might as well be dead!" (The guards in the hall were wondering why everyone in the room was belly laughing.)

 

Time to drop in on Luke unannounced and have a man to man chat with the head of the Worthington Empire. As I was one of the few people who had direct access to Luke and John, Worthington Security escorted me directly to his office. A surprised Luke looked up from the work on his desk and welcomed me to his new "home away from home". "Would you like coffee, tea or moonshine?" I smiled at Luke and told him I'd have coffee and he best serve himself the moonshine!

 

I informed Luke we needed a plan to protect Yuuto far beyond what we were currently providing. If we lose that little imp, it would be devastating to our military and cost thousands of lives. Luke agreed with my comment and informed me he had his head of Security working on options to upgrade the protection on Yuuto and his family. Frankly, anything that has been presented to me would result in Yuuto going AWOL. You know our imp and he likes his freedom. I can only hope his near death experience has given him a different perspective on life.

 

I told Luke I guess it was time for me to have a "Father to Son" chat with Yuuto and if that didn't work I'd change it to a "Commander-in-Chief to Scientist" chat with no options but for him to accept his new level of security. Let me see the final plan for upgrading his security and I won't authorize his release from the hospital or for Alpha Zulu to stand down as his protection till I'm sure that little imp is protected even from himself.

 

Finally, when the Worthington head of Security submitted his final draft of the upgraded security for Yuuto and Luke approved it... it arrived in my secure Email and I knew Yuuto would go ballistic when it was given to him. Time for POTUS to visit his old friend and issue some directives that can't be appealed.

 

Yuuto was ready to chew on my ass because he knew I had to have approved his security upgrade. I simply commented: "GUILTY AS CHARGED"! You have few choices my little friend. You can accept this upgrade in your security and allow your family to feel secure you'll be with them for a few more years... OR I will issue an Executive Order placing you in protective custody and move your research lab to Fort Connor. If you are a nice imp and behave yourself I might even give you a day off to visit your precious Koi. Don't fight us Yuuto, we are your friends and only want the best for you and that includes a long, long life to enjoy your family and your future grandchildren.

 

Yuuto was in tears as he begged forgiveness for being so selfish. I held this little imp in my arms and told him we all loved him and would protect him even from himself. "Try to ditch your security detail and when we find you it will be an immediate transport to Fort Connor in handcuffs and leg irons."

 

Yuuto was so stressed the Doctors gave him some mild sedation to help him relax and get some needed sleep. I felt bad causing so much additional stress in his life, but I would never allow any harm to come to my friend. And, YES, he was my friend first and foremost and a dedicated scientist second.

 

I contact SecDef and advised him whatever he needed to keep Yuuto safe to bury it in your "black budget" and I'd make certain it was approved by Congress. Yes, Michael Allen Roberts, the Joint Chiefs and I were all co-conspirators with Luke and John in protecting Yuuto and his family.

 

I was barely recovering from the Emergency with Yuuto when OPS advises SecDef requesting an Emergency Conference with you immediately! "BRING HIM ON!" Mr. President, approximately 15 minutes ago there was a sniper attack on Sebastian and his partner resulting in two protectors and four Alpha Zulu security personnel being killed. Sebastian's lover was critically wounded and is fighting for his life at the trauma center. The whereabouts of Sebastian is unknown, and we are using all of our assets to locate him.

 

Asking SecDef to hold, I contacted Yuuto in the hospital and begged him to help me as a father. Can you access his locator chip from a laptop while you are in the hospital? "Give me a laptop and an internet connection and I can do just about anything." Asking Yuuto to have the current commander of the Alpha Zulu contingency to give you his secure laptop... I need that location NOW! Yuuto never has failed me and within a few minutes I was able to give SecDef the GPS location of my son.

 

One hundred Alpha Zulu soldiers descended upon the location and with the Worthington Satellite giving them detailed information as to where the hostiles were in the building and the location of Sebastian it was easy to breach the building and retrieve Sebastian.

 

Ordering the kidnappers to walk out of the building with their hands in the air, twenty armed men opened fire upon our Alpha Zulu rescue team. It was the last thing they did in this life.

 

Within three minutes the shooting had ceased, and every hostile was dead. All I cared was Sebastian was safe and now we had to deal with the trauma of seeing his security detail killed and the potential of the man he loves dying.

 

I ordered Air Force One to be ready for immediate take off and I would be joining my son in Boston. He needed his fathers to support him especially if his lover dies from this attack. Just as Air Force One was leaving Andrews and climbing to flight altitude I received the news Sebastian's betrothed had died from his wounds. I immediately ordered Sebastian's new security detail to put him on a suicide watch and I would be arriving at the Castle within the hour.

 

Arriving at the Castle, Sebastian came running into my arms and was totally out of control. I had one of the medics sedate him and we put him in his bedroom on a suicide watch. I knew SecDef had notified the parents of Sebastian's betrothed and I can only imagine the trauma they are experiencing. One doesn't expect ones son to return from college in a coffin.

 

When the parents arrived in Boston, I assigned them a General Staff Officer to cut through the red tape and assist them however needed so they could bury their son. I met with them briefly and relayed my condolences and advised them Sebastian was so distraught he had to be sedated.

 

Arkyn and I each held Sebastian's hands during the funeral and graveside service. Taylor and the Colonel each stood with Sebastian knowing it could just as easy be them in his place. Being the son of POTUS comes with some inherent risk but having ones love killed was never considered a part of that risk.

 

Sebastian was in tears as he met with the parents after the funeral. He was crying as he told them if he hadn't fallen in love with their son, he would still be alive. The mother held Sebastian and told them their son had told them how much joy Sebastian had brought into his life and he truly loved him with every fiber of his being. There is no doubt in our minds he would gladly have given his life to protect you. You are not at fault, it is just a sign of our troubled times.

 

Sebastian accompanied Arkyn and me back to the White House and we returned to a loving family unit. The press were being their aggressive self and wanted access to Sebastian about the murder of his lover. T&T went livid and issued the dictum the next person who asks a question about the President's son will find themselves on the unemployment line. (From the tone of their comment everyone knew how serious they were!)

 

The White House physician gave Sebastian some medication to help him sleep and some mild tranquilizers to help him cope with his loss. Tucking Sebastian into bed, Arkyn and I kissed him goodnight and for the first time in days our son rested peacefully.

 

During the night, a glowing white light appeared in our bedroom and an Angel appeared tell us our son was in trouble. Racing to Sebastian's room we found empty pill bottle and a half empty bottle of Scotch. Our son had attempted suicide and we idiot fathers hadn't seen this coming.

 

The White House physician arrived within minutes and Sebastian had one raw throat and stomach from all the times he was pumped out till his guts were clean. Having a lavage tube down ones throat to the stomach is unpleasant but I couldn't believe how long of a tube they inserted in his ass before they started to pump his lower gut clean. To say Sebastian's gut would feel like a few Abrams Tanks were playing war games in his GI tract would be an understatement. After the receiving the ass chewing of his life from his fathers he was told he would be going to Fort Connor and have mandatory sessions with Doc and the Chaplain. Failure to cooperate would find him locked in a secure psychiatric facility.

 

The Commanding Generals met Sebastian as he came down the ramp when he landed at Fort Connor. Nothing was said other than to accompany them to their conference room. Locking it down to secure mode this was to be a one way conversation.

 

"We Generals are now responsible for your life and safety. You will have 24/7 security and that includes at the urinal, the latrine and the shower. If you have any modesty, FORGET IT! You will never be left alone until both Doc and the Chaplain advise it is safe to allow you this privilege.

 

This is being done because we care about you as an imp. The fact your father is POTUS doesn't enter into our decisions. Our six stars are for life, but NO IMP will die on our watch when we know of the potential of it happening.

 

The more you cooperate and participate the sooner privileges will be returned to you. We will protect you even from yourself! Security will now escort you to medical. "YOU ARE DISMISSED!"

 

Doc was not in "imp" mode when he walked into the exam room to evaluate Sebastian. "You stupid fucked up imp! Your lover sacrificed his life to save you and you are trying to throw it away. The next time you want to kill yourself plan better and be successful. Don't waste the resources that can be used to help people who want to live."

 

After drawing dozens of vials of blood for testing, Doc commented you are now to report to the Chaplain and don't give anyone any flak or you'll be transported in handcuffs and shackles.

 

Considering the security detail assigned by the Generals consisted of two 6'4" Special Forces Force Recon soldiers, Sebastian accepted he had little choice but to accept his fate. Either of his security guards could break every bone in his body and not work up a sweat. Walking to the chapel was like walking to a firing squad. Sebastian was starting to realize how he had really fucked up his life.

 

Sebastian sat with his head bowed low in the Chaplains office. Sniffling, he commented it is now your turn to chew on my ass. "Why should I do that when you already know what you did was wrong?" We all want to help you. Unburden your soul my son. Sebastian burst into tears and finally healing his mind was started.

 

Something was up when all the soldiers station at Fort Connor show up in dress uniforms and spit polished shoes. I was surprised to see SecDef and the Joint Chiefs arrive at the air strip. (Now I know why everyone is in dress uniforms.) As we assembled for our noon meal, the entire room was quiet as SecDef addressed us.

 

"One of the privileges of being the Secretary of Defense is acknowledging the exceptional heroism of individual soldiers. Such a man exists today in Alpha Zulu." Calling the young corporal forward that had been injured during the attack upon POTUS in the Oval Office, SecDef read the award citing the risk to his life and his exceptional heroism in protecting the President of the United States. "On behalf of a grateful nation it is my privilege to present you with a Purple Heart and a Silver Star."

 

I never realized this young corporal was the corporal that saved the life of my father. When the base is back to normal and this young man is free, I want to talk with him and tell him how much I truly appreciate the risk he took and allowed me to have my father as part of my life.

 

Asking the corporal to meet me in the meditation garden after we adjourned from our evening meal, I turned to my security detail and asked if they would please stay back ten feet so I could have a private chat with the corporal. I wasn't going to try to harm myself I wanted to personally thank him for saving the life of my father.

 

As my emotions overtook me thinking of how close I came to losing the only family I had... I was crying liked a young imp instead of acting like a mature college student. The Corporal held my hand and told me he knew what I was experiencing. His lover had died in his arms in combat and losing him was the worse day of his life. The other members of their patrol found his dead lover in his arms and his service pistol in my mouth. I was ready to pull the trigger and join my lover in eternity. My "family" in our patrol helped me to see there still was life after such a tragedy and if they hadn't believed in me and given me a reason to live I would not have been posted at that door and saved the life of your Father.

 

Yes, it is easier to pull the trigger and end the pain, but one never knows why we are put on this earth and what we are meant to accomplish. You have your complete life ahead of you and it truly would be a sin to waste such a fantastic mind.

 

I was overcome with emotion and without thinking I wrapped my arms around the Corporal and gave him the most passionate kiss and tongue battle I had experienced in my life. The stench of sex was so apparent as we both filled our BDUs with our young seed. Was I cheating on my dead partner, this is something that the Chaplain and I had to discuss because I think I was starting to have personal feelings for this wonderful young man.

 

I was in tears as I shared this emotional moment with the Chaplain. He commented I did nothing wrong and if the roles were reversed would I want my deceased lover to be celibate and ruin his life and future. NEVER! So why kick yourself in the ass over something you wouldn't want done if the roles were reversed. My suggestion is to talk with the young Corporal and if he is agreeable, I would suggest he join you in your counseling sessions. It is better he knows all about you and you about him. Go into this friendship with your eyes open instead of your pants unzipped. You have been given a future few young men will ever have. Don't waste the opportunity.

 

After a few months of both men sharing their inner feelings and fears. I was happy when Doc mentioned in passing how improved the neuro transmitters were in Sebastian lab tests. Whatever you are doing Chaplain, keep up the good work.

 

Taylor and the Colonel were happy Sebastian had someone in his life he could trust and they couldn't believe our horny Sebastian hadn't gotten into the Corporal's pants yet. It was a combination of Sebastian still feeling like he was cheating on his first love and his respect of the Corporal in dealing with the loss of his love. At least Sebastian didn't have to face his love dying in his arms. This was the first time in his life where Sebastian had a friend who he wasn't "sleeping" with. Just the feelings that raced through his body when he was around the Corporal scared him. There were moments he wanted to tear the uniform off of the corporal and show him how much he was loved as he fucked him to Nirvana and back a few times.

 

Sebastian accepted he was thinking with the "wrong head" and that whatever feelings they shared if it was to be more than sex they had to love and respect each other first. Sebastian's com went off and he was ordered to report to the office of the Commanding Generals. DAMN, NOW WHAT DID HE DO?

 

Advised his father would be arriving Friday night and would be presenting the Colonel with his first star during a formal assembly on Saturday. Your father is asking if you want to be part of this presentation. DEFINITELY! And, please inform my father I need a time where we can talk privately and with the Generals permission without my security detail. I have no intention of killing myself.

 

Sebastian and Taylor were elated to pin on the star of a Brigadier General to their deserving Colonel. Little did they know by the time their father left office their protector would have four stars on his shoulders. POTUS only hoped and prayed the stars wouldn't be presented posthumously.

 

At our evening meal the entire base was in celebratory mode over the Colonel's promotion. I quietly whispered to my fathers I'd appreciate it if he would take a walk with me in the Meditation Garden. Knowing something important was happening in my life I had to admit to my fathers the feelings I had for the young Corporal. After I poured out my heart to my fathers they held me tight and kissed me and assured me they had no intention of causing any setback in my healing. All we get are glowing reports from Doc and the Chaplain and if they both agree I'll approve the Generals eliminating your security detail.

 

I jumped into my fathers arms and smothered them with hugs and kisses. Dads, I love you more than I ever have... thank you, Thank you and THANK YOU! Go call it a night and rest soundly in the imps bunker... I still have work to do and you know the Presidents job is 24/7.

 

Asking General Ake to join us fathers in his secure conference room, it was time to shock the hell out of a young Corporal. Receiving an order for a command performance in front of a six star General has the effect of scaring an enlisted man shitless. Our Corporal was no exception. Entering the conference room, it was terrifying to see the Commanding General sitting there but the shock was POTUS and his partner also in this group. Our Corporal could only think of how he might have hurt Sebastian and that the fathers wanted retribution. He could feel the cold of the Artic Survival Program and wondered how long it really would take to defrost his bladder.

 

At ease Corporal, have a seat... we have much to discuss! First, let me thank you for helping our son with this most traumatic moment in his young life. But, I need to know your intentions? Do you have feelings for him? Or, is he just a vulnerable cheap piece of ass for you to fuck?

 

The Corporal was insulted and if it had been anyone other than POTUS he would be eating his teeth at such a comment. I have feelings for Sebastian and I don't feel he is ready to return those feelings. We both have had the traumatic loss of our first love and initially my only goal was to help him to accept the loss and have a productive life.

 

Over the past few weeks, I've fallen in love with him. I just don't know if that love is shared? Stating I have one important question for you: "Would you take a bullet for him?" Without any hesitation his answer was a committed YES!

 

What proficiency do you shoot with a handgun: "Expert"... and with the Bull Pup: "Expert".

 

I am asking the General to TDA you to my staff for 7-10 days so we can get you fitted for your officers uniform and have you take the Oath of Office as a Captain in the United States Army. Would you accept the posting as the protector for my son Sebastian knowing it would mean you being with him 24 hours a day 7 days a week? "YES SIR!"

 

I ordered the Corporal to grab his Go Bag and head to the air strip... I'd meet him at Air Force One. I turned to General Ake and warned him when Sebastian comes looking for blood and wants to know where the Corporal has gone simply tell him he is on a classified assignment and should be back within 14 days. If that doesn't satisfy him, tell him to contact his father.

 

T&T always enjoyed a trip to Fort Connor and were always the last to return from the Mess Hall. Chastising my portly Chiefs of Staff, I commented you have a guest at the Penthouse for the next week. I have asked our Corporal to become the protector for Sebastian. Let's get him fitted for his new uniforms and I'm certain we can find someone to give him his new commissioning oath.

 

T&T realized a breakthrough had been made with Sebastian and they were most happy to participate in this conspiracy. T&T asked if they could privately talk with me as soon as we reached cruising altitude. Do you realize who his father is? His father is the HEAD of the REPUBLICAN NATIONAL COMMITTEE! Talk about sleeping with the enemy!

 

I assured him the only sleeping arrangements the Corporal was interested in enjoying was in bed with Sebastian. Don't screw it up for these two men who are falling in love.

 

Within the week his new uniforms were fitted and our HR Dream Team had gone through all the additional paperwork requirements of him now being an officer. I could have any officer in the Army give him his commissioning oath but I opted to do it so no one could question what had happened. I asked the Chief Justice of the United States to join me in my office and he administered the Commissioning Oath to the newest Captain in the United States Army.

 

After a quiet cake and champaign celebration in the Oval Office I had SecDef give our new Captain a 96 hour furlough to go home and fill his parents in on all that has happened in his life. Why wasn't I shocked when the next morning my secretary received a request from the Chairman of the Republican National Committee to meet with me privately. BRING HIM ON!

 

I knew exactly what to expect and was prepared for any threats or posturing he would make. I was shocked when his first comment was he was here as a father and not a politician. Assure me your intentions are honorable and I will bless the happiness that my son has finally found in life.

 

"I sure wasn't expecting that comment!" I assured the father that as a father my only intention was to help my son heal and in no way bring any harm to your son. The feelings they have for each other existed before I met your son, and I am only trying to help both men find happiness.

 

Sebastian will always be an imp in my heart and mind, but I have to accept he is nearly a full grown man and I have to respect the decisions he makes. I hope you will welcome Sebastian into your heart and family as much as I will welcome your son into ours. We may have different points of view politically but as fathers we have the same goal. To help our sons grow into the best men possible.

 

I will advise the White House Operators you now have access to me 24/7 so if there is a concern we fathers need to address I'll be as close as your phone. Thank you for being such an open minded and loving father.

 

Having one last request, can you arrange a pass for me to visit Fort Connor, I'd like to meet your son and assure him I only want the best for both of them. CONSIDER IT DONE!

 

I contacted General Ake and advised him our new Captain would be returning to Fort Connor on Monday and you can inform Sebastian so he'll quit hounding you. (I know my son all too well!)

 

Sebastian was standing at the bottom of the plane ramp as this hot Captain descended onto base. Sebastian didn't even realize it was his "Corporal" until the Captain wrapped his arms around Sebastian and gave him a French kiss that left his tonsils bruised from all the tongue action.

 

"Captain, how in the hell did you become a Captain?" Let me check in with Doc and then General Ake. Then we can liberate some vanilla ice cream with plenty of hot fudge and I'll tell you about the events of the past two weeks.

 

Sebastian was in tears learning the new Captain was to be his full time protector. It is too risky, I don't want your life in danger. My life is in danger just being in the Army. I was nearly killed on the protection detail at the White House and I wasn't in love with your father. I'd take this job if it meant being busted to a lowly private. I will always protect you 24/7 and I do it out of love.

 

Now if you really want to get upset, my father will be visiting Fort Connor tomorrow to meet you and with the permission of your father. See, my father is the Chairman of the Republican National Committee... not someone you'd expect to see working cooperatively with a Democratic Administration.

 

Now if you want to celebrate my return to Fort Connor, I suggest we walk over to General Ake's office and see if we can get a VIP Suite for the night. That is, if you think you'll be able to put your legs together in the morning and walk to the landing strip and greet my father.

 

We'll just see who has problems putting their legs together in the morning. I haven't had sex in over four months and I have a raging hardon that has your name written all over it.

 

General Ake only smiled from ear to ear as he granted our request. He reminded us about the VIP arriving tomorrow and we might want to take it easy so we could walk in the morning. His comment never fazed us... we both would be mighty tender but it was an event in our lives that would occur for the next 50+ years.

 

A well built executive walked down the ramp of an executive jet after it landed at Fort Connor. Processed by security he wrapped his arms around his son and gave him a major man hug. Offering his hand in friendship to Sebastian he was happy to meet the man who had stolen the heart of his son. Commenting when it comes to our families there is no political discussion. Both of us fathers only want what is best for our sons. I hope you'll fly back with me and meet his mother and enjoy the hospitality of our home. And, yes son... we'll have to meet the wrath of your mother about having guns in the house but she is just going to have to adjust considering it is now part of your job and life.

 

I hear the food at Fort Connor is beyond fantastic and from what I can smell the rumors are true. I'll have to eventually sneak away and make my courtesy call upon your Generals but I'm here to see my son and his new love and that is my priority with this trip.

 

After our Friday evening Prime Rib of Buffalo which always was the best meal prepared by our talented Mess staff, my father understood how all the calories I consumed got turned into muscle. General Ake quietly informed the new Captain he has a 96 hour pass to introduce his family to Sebastian. Just plan on being at Andrews and returning with the supply plane on Monday. Enjoy and PLAY SAFE!

 

Mom was busting with pride when she saw her hunk of a son in his Alpha Zulu Officer Uniform. Hastily planning a Saturday evening reception for the two lovers she wanted to show off her son and his hunky lover to the elite of Washington Republicans. Many a notable Republican legislator was in shock to see her son dating the son of a Democratic President. Any negative comments went ignored until it was time to send out the invitations to the wedding of her son.

 

One learns quickly not to piss off the wife of the man who controls the purse strings of your political party. The Captain quietly eased Sebastian toward the stairway and the upstairs bedrooms. Locking the door of his bedroom he only commented Mom never knows when to call a party quits. I want your hot body and frankly my ass as sore as it is wants to get sent to Nirvana a few times tonight. (Sebastian was happy to oblige!)

 

Still recovering from their night of rampant hormones, tonight was a gentle night of sex and love. Intimacy, cuddling, kissing and just enjoy an orgasm when it happened with no rush or expectations. Advising Sebastian, we have to be discrete around here, Mom would never approve of us having sex before marriage in her house. My mother is far more conservative about sex than your father is opened minded about his sons having sex in the White House. Taylor is mighty lucky to have a General in bed with him every night and I'm selfish, all I want is you.

 

As the Captains eight thick inches was standing tall and proud Sebastian whispered to him he would stuff a corner of the pillow in his mouth if that beautiful piece of meat between your legs would enjoy my ass again tonight.

 

As the muffled scream of a fast hard entry was barely heard through their bedroom door, Dad knew his son was in love and would do or say nothing but encourage happiness in his son. Dad wondered how inventive his son would be attempting to explain one or both of them hobbling down the stairs to breakfast in the morning. Mom would have a "hissy fit" if she thought her innocent little boy was being seduced by the big bad Democrat. Both of the young men had to laugh when Mom came home from one of her Charity meetings early Sunday afternoon and found them fucking like rabbits in the family room. As she fainted from the shock, the boys quickly realized they needed to be more considerate around "Mom". As her son informed his mother he was in love with Sebastian and yes, they enjoyed sex immensely. We plan to be married as soon as Sebastian finishes at Harvard and I plan to do my best to knock him up. (Mom fainted again.)

 

Dad suggested they both may want to spend the last night of his 96 hours pass with his fathers in the White House. It was going to take some time and probably some therapy for Mom to accept the reality of having a gay son and lover. Mom was raised an ultraconservative Southern Baptist so to say you have really given her the worse shock of her life would be an understatement.

 

As Sebastian and the Captain were escorted into the Oval Office POTUS was surprised to see his son and his son's lover. "I thought you were spending the weekend with his parents?" We screwed up Dad literally and figuratively. His Mother walked in while I was fucking his brains out and actually fainted on the spot. His father saw the humor in it but suggested we might want to spend our last night with you and Arkyn in the White House.

 

T&T came running to find out what had POTUS roaring in laughter. Joining in the laughter knowing what a staunch conservative Republican Mom was you two should be happy she only fainted and didn't have a heart attack!

 

POTUS only smiled as he commented you know where your bedroom is, just lock the door and enjoy the rest of your time off base. I love both of you!

 

At the evening meal, POTUS assured the two guilty culprits the imp mafia had definitely made Fort Connor aware of their fiasco so expect to get a lot of crude comments from your friend when you arrive back on base. Just keep up the good work Sebastian and I look forward to those glowing reports from Doc and the Chaplain.

 

The Captain about fainted when POTUS told him the posting of Protectors comes with the rank of a bird Colonel after he has completed his six month probation. Sebastian just told the Captain to close his mouth unless he was trolling for queers and took him by the hand and led him back to his bedroom not to be seen for the next 24 hours.
