- Many Challenges.
After Reid and I woke up on Monday, he raced up to his room to get dressed, and then we ate breakfast with his family.
"So what have you got planned for today?" Pam asked me innocently.
"I'm going to start painting this side of the fence. It will probably take me a couple of days before I finish."
"So you're not working on your story?"
"I'll do that when I have time, but I want to get this done before we run into bad weather."
"But we can do it on the weekend," Brad offered, trying to take the responsibility off my shoulders.
"I know, but doing it will also allow me to keep an eye on the guy next door. I'm sure he'll try something soon, I'm just not sure what or when."
"The cameras will keep an eye on him, so you don't need to do that," Brad followed.
"I know, but I'm hoping I can prevent him from doing any damage in the first place, not just making him pay for what he's done afterward."
"Ok, but you don't need to do that."
"I know, but a few more days aren't going to make that much of a difference."
Once they had all left for school or work, I began painting the fence and had been at it for a couple of hours when a car pulled into the driveway. I stopped to see who it was and what he wanted.
"Hello, I'm Drew Esposito from Code Enforcement, and I'm responding to a complaint about an illegal fence. Are you the homeowner?"
"No, I'm his brother-in-law, but I live here too. I know exactly who called you," I added while tilting my head toward the neighbor's house, "so let me get the paperwork I have on this."
I then went inside and came back carrying the permits and other paperwork I had regarding the fence. He looked it over and then examined the fence, before he came back to speak with me.
"I see absolutely nothing wrong with this fence. In fact, you've done something you didn't have to do. You could have built it with the nicer side facing your property."
"Yes, we knew that, but we thought doing it this way would cause less of a hassle with the neighbor. Obviously we were wrong. It also allowed us to build it without having to put one toe on his property." I then explained the situation that had precipitated us going to this extreme in the first place.
"Ah, yes. That explains a lot. I'll have to go over and speak with him next, so I can explain that everything is in order and it's all perfectly legal."
"I don't envy you that task." He chuckled as he walked away.
A couple of minutes later I heard some shouting coming from the front of the neighbor's house, although I couldn't make out what was being said. The neighbor obviously disagreed with the man from Code Enforcement, but his insistent protests fell on unsympathetic ears. A short time later I saw the man return to his vehicle and drive off. Round One was over and the fence was still standing.
When I returned to paint some more after I'd fixed myself lunch, a car from the local police department pulled into the driveway next. Since I felt I knew what this was about, I went out to greet the officer.
"I'm Officer Shelly Bradley and I'm responding to a call about this fence."
"I'm not surprised, and you're not the first one. Drew Esposito from Code Enforcement was here earlier on a similar complaint, and he looked over all of the paperwork and inspected the fence. He assured me everything was in order, but my neighbor isn't happy with the fence." I then went on to explain to her about what had happened and why we'd decided this was our best option.
"I had a feeling there wasn't anything I could do when I first got the call, since this was a problem for either Code Enforcement or the Zoning Department. Since Drew has already been here, I'll just file a report stating that there were no issues and the matter had been resolved."
"Not for the neighbor, I'm sure. He won't be happy until the fence comes down."
"I'll go over and talk to him, so I can explain it's all completely legal and he has no recourse."
"I can't wait to hear the shouting match."
"What?"
"I heard the old guy screaming at Drew when he basically told him the same thing."
"Oh, thanks for the warning, so I'll be prepared."
She then went over and knocked on his door, and before long more shouting was coming from that direction. It continued for about a minute, and then I saw Shelly get into her patrol car and drive off. That was Round Two, but I hoped it was the end of this situation.
During dinner, I explained to everyone else about what had happened while they were at work and school. "Dang, he's sure a nasty old guy," Reid observed.
"Just persistent and used to getting his way, it seems," his mother corrected.
"I'm glad we went to those extremes before we started," Brad concurred. "Do you think that's the end of it, since they both told him there was nothing he could do?"
"I doubt it," I replied. "He seems to be the type who won't give up until he gets what he wants."
"But he doesn't have a case," Brad pointed out.
"I know, but I doubt that will stop him."
After we finished eating, Ashley and Reid went to do their homework, while Evan went to watch cartoons. While the kids were all busy, Brad asked me a question.
"Pam and I were curious. Are you doing something with Reid every night?" I looked at him momentarily, because I hadn't expected this from him.
"No, I remembered what you told him when he first wanted to sleep with me every night and advised him we couldn't do those types of things when he had school the next day. We could only shower and sleep together."
"And he was ok with that?"
"Not really, but I told him if he didn't agree then he'd have to start sleeping in his own room on school nights, so he finally gave in."
"I'm glad to hear that, and Pam will be relieved too."
"Good, but I hope I'm not going to be facing a third degree every now and then to satisfy your curiosity about what we're up to. I was afraid that might happen, but I'm uncomfortable discussing these things with you, so I hope you'll just trust that I won't do anything that would be harmful to Reid."
"Ok, I can understand that too, so we'll try to leave you alone. It's just that he's our son and we're worried about what he's up to as well."
"I know, but since you were the ones who dragged me into this, please trust my judgment and know that I won't do anything I think you or Pam might object to."
"Ok, fair enough."
When Reid was done with his homework, he brought it down for me to check over. Once I'd done that and had pointed out any problems I spotted, we showered and then cuddled together in bed. I didn't bother telling him anything about my discussion with his father, since he didn't really need to know and it would probably just upset him. I also didn't want him to confront his parents about this either, since I realized he wasn't eager to have them know exactly what we were doing.
On Tuesday, I was finishing painting the final few sections of the fence when another car pulled into the driveway, so I stopped and greeted the person.
"Hi, I'm Jan Igo from the Zoning Board..." I cut her off.
"And your responding to a complaint about the fence," I finished for her.
I then explained the previous two visits, the situation with the neighbor, and why we'd erected the fence. After she looked over all of my paperwork and checked out the fence for herself, she thanked me for being so cooperative and admitted she'd found nothing out of order. I warned her about the guy next door before she went to speak with him, and once again I heard some shouting before I saw her get into her car to leave. That was Round Three, so I hoped this wasn't a ten or fifteen round fight.
It was the only visit I received that day, so I was able to finish the painting before the others arrived home. After dinner, they went outside with me to inspect the fence, and each one assured me it looked great and I'd done a wonderful job. I knew there were others who disagreed, though, because I heard a 'humph' from the other side of the fence.
The rest of the week was fairly uneventful, and since I'd finished work on the fence, I was able to concentrate on my writing again. Everything was going fine until Friday, when I heard the front doorbell ring. When I went out to see who was there, I discovered a Sheriff's deputy.
"I'm here to serve a summons on the residents of this property," he stated, very officially. "Do you own this home?"
"No, it belongs to my brother-in-law, but I'm residing here with him and his family. I have my own apartment."
"Then I'll serve you with this summons." After handing it to me, he took down my name for his records.
After he left, I looked at the summons. Although it wasn't a surprise, we were being summoned to court over the fence. It gave a date and time when we'd need to appear, plus it also listed what would happen if we failed to show up. Once I knew what this was about, I contacted some other individuals to request information from them, and then I went back to work while I waited for Brad and Pam to get home. Shortly after they arrived, I asked them to sit down with me.
"We're being summoned to civil court over the fence. I was served earlier, and since the deputy felt he could present me with the legal document, I'll take care of this matter for you."
"So neither of us will have to be there?" Brad asked, as he looked at me skeptically.
"I believe I'll be able to handle it on my own. I have already devised a strategy to defend against this and I've made a few phone calls to get whatever I felt I'd need, so this way neither of you will have to take more time off from work."
"Are you sure?"
"Yes, if they need you too, then I'll just ask for a continuance so you can appear with me, but I doubt that will be necessary."
"Damn, I wish we'd known about the neighbor before we bought this place, because then we could have made an offer on one of the other houses instead."
"No, this place met our needs the best, and he's quite old, probably in his 80s, so he might not be around for too much longer. Just let me handle this and I think we'll be fine."
"Ok, if you say so. Did you happen to minor in law too?" Brad then laughed nervously.
"No, just common sense, and I think it's all that will be needed."
We weren't scheduled to appear in court until the following Thursday, but it was probably just a preliminary hearing. If things went the way I hoped, the case would be dismissed at that time and we wouldn't have to deal with this further.
I knew I was going to be in for a workout after dinner, seeing it was Friday night and there was no school the following day. Reid had been chomping at the bit all week, since I'd told him we could only do something sexual on non-school nights, and I wasn't sure if he was taking care of his own needs in between. Therefore, I was expecting that he'd be hornier than usual and give me a real run for my money.
As soon as Pam took Evan and Ashley upstairs, Reid nearly pushed me toward my apartment. I could see Brad smirking when he noticed this, seeing I'd explained to him about my rule of not doing anything with Reid when he had school the next day. I was sure he knew why Reid was so anxious, but I wasn't sure if he was pitying me or envious that I'd be getting one hell of a sexual workout.
As soon as Reid locked the door behind us, he began pawing at my clothing and doing his best to remove each item from my body. He was also trying to kiss me at the same time, which meant he was having very little success in doing either. After several minutes, I finally called a halt to his efforts.
"Reid, just hold on for a second. You need to do one thing at a time, because you have limited reach if you're trying to kiss me at the same time."
"Ok, so what do I do?"
"Do you want to kiss or undress each other first?"
"I want to kiss you, but I need to get off too. I haven't done anything since Tuesday."
"I'm surprised your nuts haven't exploded then."
"Very funny, but I'm serious."
"Ok, then let me take care of you first, and then we can kiss some more before you do anything to me."
"Ok, that will work."
Reid immediately began ripping off his clothes and tossing them in various directions. I was going to say something about what he was doing, but I figured I'd do it later, rather than making him delay seeking relief. As soon as he was naked, I skipped the usual preliminaries and merely attacked his groin, while also slipping a finger up his chute. He was sighing and mewing as he writhed beneath me, as I searched out his prostate and bobbed up and down on his erection.
Since he was so desperate, Reid was using his hands to force my head up and down, as he urged me to greater fulfillment. He was also thrusting his hips up and down, mirroring my actions, which caused him to explode within an even shorter time than usual. After he'd painted my tonsils with his barely mature nectar, he collapsed on the mattress and lay motionless, almost like a corpse. I would have worried about him, if I hadn't been able to observe his chest rising and falling in a steady rhythm as he enjoyed the throes of his intense release.
I gave him all the time he needed to recuperate, and then he attacked my mouth with the same ferocity that he had been demanding from me when I was working on his groin. When he finally pulled away, he began removing my clothes with the same reckless abandon as he'd removed his own. As soon as I was naked, he attacked my manhood like a man dying of thirst. His actions were not only frantic, but he had also inserted his finger in my rectum and was hurriedly stroking my prostate at the same time, so I erupted much sooner than I normally would have. Reid seemed pleased by this fact, because when he moved off of my penis he was smiling broadly, extremely pleased with his current success.
Now that we had both orgasmed, I convinced Reid it was time to shower. He didn't have a problem with that and eagerly went with me as I headed to the bathroom. We washed each other in a much more leisurely fashion than we'd used in the bedroom and continued until we were both clean. Then we dried off and went to get into bed, each of us as naked as the day we were born.
Reid immediately backed into me as we spooned together, with the crack of his ass pressed firmly against my man parts, but seeing we'd just got off it didn't affect me in the slightest. Instead, I wrapped my arm over his chest, gave him a little hug, and kissed the back of his neck, before we both drifted off to sleep.
When Reid woke up in the morning, he jumped out of bed and raced to the toilet, but he still had an erection as he walked back to the bed. I just looked at him, shook my head slightly, and realized I'd have to do something about that before we went out to join his parents. Even though he'd be wearing clothes, it would definitely cause a noticeable bulge in his pants, so I had him lie beside me again and attacked his problem.
"I didn't know you were going to do that," he said, surprised by my actions. I lifted off his penis just long enough to respond.
"You can't join the others with this. It would be too obvious, unless you were wearing a jock."
"Oh, I'm not complaining, I just didn't know you were going to do this again."
Once again, it didn't take very long for him to bust a nut, but then I had to convince him that he didn't need to do the same to me. Instead, I had him gather up all of the clothes that he'd tossed all over the place the previous evening, so we could get dressed again. I threw the things I'd been wearing into the hamper, while he slipped his on and then went up to his room to change. We met up again at the breakfast table, much to my immediate discomfort.
It wasn't because of anything Reid was doing, though, but due to the looks his father was giving me after he glanced between Reid and myself. He would then smirk, raise his eyebrows up and down several times, and wink. I knew what he was getting at, but it was very uncomfortable having a father doing that after you'd just done something sexual with his child. I'm sure even a heterosexual would feel the same way, and it certainly didn't lessen the feeling just because Brad and I were best friends.
I was able to ignore him for most of the time, as I talked to Pam and the kids instead of looking in Brad's direction. I don't think anyone else caught on to what he was doing either, not even Reid, so I was grateful for at least that much of a break.
After we finished eating, Brad asked me to join him in the backyard so he could ask me more questions about my story. I didn't have a problem doing that, so we headed out to the lawn chairs, so we could enjoy the beautiful morning and fresh air. Reid followed us out, and Brad didn't object, so I didn't either. I was convinced that Reid just wanted to be near me and wasn't really interested in what we had to say.
On the way out, I noticed something else, even if the other two hadn't. Since I was the only one who stood over six feet (1.83 m) tall, I could see over the fence between us and the neighbor's property. That's why I noticed that the old man was pacing back and forth in his yard, staring at the fence, and most likely contemplating how he was going to get rid of it. It's too bad he didn't realize his earlier insensitive remarks were what prompted it to go up in the first place.
Since the other two hadn't noticed anything, I didn't comment about it either. Instead, I answered Brad's questions about the science involved in the first book. When I'd answered all of his questions and explained things so he understood it well enough to include it in the script, he went back in the house and left Reid and me alone.
"Now I want to talk to you about your next story," Reid stated. "I'm glad you're including me as a character, but I want Reed to do something really important, not just be there because he's with his father."
"And that's exactly what I have planned. Reed's going to make a major discovery that will add even more to what his father has discovered."
"Really? Like what?"
"Well, do you remember that I told you Reed's father discovered the chamber under the sphinx's paw and it contained all kinds of long forgotten information?"
"Yeah, I remember."
"That was his father's discovery, but then Reed will notice something else that no one else had observed, and that leads to an even greater discovery."
"Really? What does he find?"
"While his father and the others are spending all their time looking at all the various articles they found in the chamber, Reed notices something about the chamber itself."
"What does he see?"
"He's the only one who notices that one end of the chamber is unlike the rest of it. He sees that while most of the area is made up of the light colors of the limestone, but at one end there are large, grayish slabs covering the floor. When Reed points out this discrepancy, his father has the laborers move everything away from that area so they can investigate."
"What do they find?"
"Under those slabs they find a stairway that leads down to a lower chamber, and there they discover some truly amazing artifacts."
"Like what?" he asked in breathless anticipation.
"The first thing they find is a miniature version of the sphinx, but it's not identical to the sphinx that looms above the chamber."
"Why? What's different about it."
"Instead of the head of a Pharaoh, this sphinx has the head of a lion, so it matches the body."
"So what does that mean?"
"It indicated the sphinx was really much older than the pyramids and the Egyptians had obviously chiseled away the original head until they turned it into one that resembled one of the Pharaohs."
"Ok, but why is that important?"
"Because it indicates there was probably another civilization that preceded the Egyptians and they were the ones responsible for the treasure trove of information in the chamber."
"Oh, I see. So do they find anything else?"
"Yes, they discover artifacts that are so technologically advanced that they couldn't have come from the Egyptians or the civilization that came before them. Hell, some of the items were so advanced that current scientists were having trouble figuring out what they were for or how they worked."
"So where did they come from?"
"All indications were that they came from travelers from another world and those things were either left behind or had been stolen from them without their knowledge. Either way, it proves that the earliest civilizations might have had some help with the wondrous marvels they created. It also suggests a link to many of the civilizations across the globe and ties them to the same root source."
"So did man come from outer space then?"
"No, man probably originated here on earth, but his development, organizational skills, and accomplishments might have been spurred by travelers from another world. They may have even toyed with human DNA and added some of their own to it to cause mankind to develop faster."
"And it's Reed's discovery that makes everyone realize this?"
"Yes, because if he hadn't been so observant, those things might never have been discovered, or it could have been years before someone else came to the same realization."
"I like that a lot. Thanks for doing that with Reed and letting him do something that was really important."
"You're welcome, but I told you I'd do something special with him. I'm just glad you're happy with what I came up with."
"Oh, I am. I'm really happy."
That put Reid in a really good mood for the rest of the day, so he didn't complain when I spent time with Evan and Ashley too, which included giving Evan his bath again. Since Reid had been such a good sport, I made sure to reward him later, after we went to my apartment. Once there, I did exactly what he wanted and helped him get off again, which included a little more butt play. In fact, I decided that I was going to purchase a simple dildo that I could use on him eventually, but I wouldn't let him know I had it until I thought the time was right. That was because I knew he would keep nagging me about it until I finally gave in or got mad enough that I threw it away.
Once we'd both gotten our rocks off, we showered and got ready for bed. Then we cuddled together until the following morning, when he left to return to his room first, before we spent some time with the rest of the family.

Although the boys in these stories sometimes have unprotected sex, I strongly urge all of you out there to be smart and protect yourselves from various sexually transmitted diseases by using taking appropriate precautions before engaging in sex.
