The boys were ready to go Saturday morning, they wore their uniforms and medals and Bubby and Sean would be having their first flight. I dressed in my uniform to look a little more official. Adam had the day off and he and Rob were going to Sorrento for the weekend; they use the beach house more than us, must get onto that. I arrived at the jet early so I could sneak in the cake and party food then I rearranged the galley cupboards. Adam will never get this right; I don't know how he finds things. I sat to talk to my boys who looked so good, even though they come to the park often, in this environment they are just mine alone. We three welcomed the boys aboard, Andy and Sam both were impressed with the jet and the kid's eyes were everywhere. Tan was onboard too and I gave him extra cuddles and so did Con. He showed the kids through the cabins and they were suitably impressed. I locked down everything because our window was approaching, making sure the kids were belted in then I did my safety spiel. They all clapped and I belted up just as we made the final turn to head up the runway. All I heard was screaming, yelling and laughing as the kids strained to look out the windows. Andy, Con and Sam had big smiles on their faces and Grant was watching me. When the seat belt sign went off the boys started to watch the clouds and were picking animals out. Sam went across and was looking too while Bubby seemed to be calculating in his head how long it would take him to own this plane. There would be no naps for us today but we did have a surprise for Andy and Sam. Con leaned over and suggested to Andy he and Sam should join the mile high club, we had set up the second lounges bed, wink wink. Andy immediately got up and took Sam's arm leading him to the salon where he locked the door. We kept the kids busy then the coffee was ready so I went to fix some for my boys, not forgetting the chocolate biscuits. Grant gave me a hand. "Are you okay Grant you've been very quiet?" "Just concerned Brent that's all, you still haven't told me how you got that black eye." "Grant its personal but I can tell you it's all good, you're not to worry about it." I smiled and kissed his cheek. "I threw Brent's statue at the wall but missed and got him in the face. I was pissed off because he didn't tell me he had been in hospital while we were away," Con explained, he was standing behind us. "What hospital, what happened, why didn't you tell us?" Grant was more concerned than anything. "It's over, just some spleen stuff that's all, two days and I was home again." "He didn't think it was important Grant, I can't go away anymore just in case he does it again." Conner had his sad face on so I smirked and said, "Good, you can help with our Christmas party, you can do the invitations Con." I kissed him then took the coffee up to the cockpit. Sam and Andy were awfully red faced when they emerged from the salon. Sean hadn't even noticed they had gone. We landed in Sydney to a very quick turn around and Luke and Sarah were waiting for us and after some pleasantries we assured her we would look after little Luke. By this time he was on the jet and having a ball with Ted and his mates. We soared into the air and the boys again screamed and yelled, they had brought a spare uniform for Luke and he changed into it as soon as the belt sign went off. They had even managed to find some spare medals for him. I noticed Sam and Andy looking into each others eyes and could tell their love was deep, my heart missed a beat as I turned to Con who was looking at me so I stared back... he won. Those eyes were piercing my brain so I eventually had to look away as Con gave a little chuckle. I made more coffee then gave the kids some juice and a couple of biscuits, they would get hot dogs or something at the ground then cake on the way home. The flight was quick and we were picked up at the Brisbane airport by a people mover, which would take us to the ground. When we arrived we were shown to a corporate box where Dan, Cody and the twins were. We hugged each other and thanked them for helping out, the twins had grown a little and the kids started to play with them. "Did you find out what Dan told Ted with the bed wetting thing?" Cody whispered in my ear. "No Codes, it's big footy man's business I think, but he was a very happy boy when he got off the phone." "Oh just like Dan, the important things he doesn't feel the need to share with me." He giggled. "Con's the same, do you believe on the way up he actually tried to out stare me?" "Really and did he?" "Yes." I let out a long laugh. I had so much fun with Codes, he and I were on the same page as far as humor and other things were concerned but today wasn't the day to share past moments. Dan kidnapped Ted for five minutes and took him onto the ground where he did the toss and his fists were so tight I thought he might break something. He threw a coin into the air then stood back then Dan put him on his shoulders and the crowd applauded as he was carried off the oval. He came back almost crying he was so happy, he headed Con's way and buried his face into his belly as Con was saying softly, "Deep breaths baby, deep breaths." He really didn't cry but was so overwhelmed just for a minute or two. It was all forgotten when the first quarter siren went, he sat with his mates and started barracking for his team. The twins ended up on Andy and Con's knees where they decided their smells were just perfect for a half hour nap and Cody was staring at them with a slight smile on his face. At half time Dan took the boys down to the change room, I wanted to go but Con stared at me again, Cody laughed then we went to get hot dogs and chips for when they got back. Ted was very happy with his signed Bomber's jumper and so were the other three. Bubby must have done the negotiations because they each got a signed football also. I was telling Cody about Bubs and the team and he just sat there laughing. "Tim did the same to me once when I organized some part time work at my outlet for him, within three days he had the staff going on strike for more money." He laughed at the thought. "Is he still at the charity or has he gone full time with the photography?" "Still doing both, he's here somewhere, he's the clubs official photographer. Most of his photos are of Donny, the other guys get so pissed off with him sometimes, poor Donny he loves him to bits but Tim does embarrass him a lot." The kid's team won the day and we said out thanks to Dan and Cody, the twins needed to be getting home and we had an excited Luke to drop off on the way. As soon as the jet was in the air I brought out the cake, no candles too dangerous, but we all sang to Ted who was a very happy birthday boy by the time we landed in Sydney. Luke hugged everyone and ran over the tarmac to meet his gorgeous mum, his carry bag in hand and medals glinting in the afternoon sun. We all were a bit tired when we got in Ted's eyes were drooping and Con's slow swagger had returned, it was like it was an effort for him to walk but fuck me, it was so sexy to watch. Sunday we lounged around while Conner strummed his guitar. He was still writing that song we started a lifetime ago so I sat with him and Ted had the TV going watching the replay with the headphones on he got from Sean, at one stage he screamed and hit me. "Look daddy we are on the TV." I looked up and Con put his guitar down, we were all on TV. The cameras were on us, well they were on Conner when he was holding little Cody and the commentators were discussing whether he was Rick Conners' son or not, when one of them piped up and said, "Rick's son Ted did the toss, this one's Daniel Lawrence's son." "Oh the twins." "Yes great little guys, I think it might be Ted's birthday today, happy birthday Teddy mate where ever you are." Well he got a mention and his hands went white and his eyes squeezed shut, it's a pity that over the years this birthday will become only a dull memory for him...we are so proud of him. John had catered the party on Monday and loads of kids came to wish Ted a happy birthday, the cake was beautiful and yes we had candles at last, six of them. Adam, Rob, Dave and Phil, they were all there making a big fuss, he got his drone and decided that was the best present so the team played with it for an hour or two, and Conner and Phil helped. "How was Sorrento Adam?" "Great we got to sleep in the big bed, those views in the morning are awesome." What, that little bugger, he's a guest not the owner! "I believe the cleaners were disgusted with the skid marks all over the sheets, it's going to take them weeks to remove them." I smirked; Adam's eyebrows went up, good, no answer so I stared him down. I did hear, 'bitch,' as he walked back to maybe complain to Rob, bloody little sook. Ted collected his stuff and we managed to get it all into the car boot, I helped John clean up while Grant drove my car home. When I got in Conner and Ted were sorting through his presents putting the right card with each gift and Ted will do some thank you notes, I will buy him a pad tomorrow. His big day had caught up with him and he quickly drifted off to sleep after he got his good night kisses. Conner of course had his own agenda, which included something to do with his cock and me. My man had to do media today so he would be gone most of it. We sat and had our breakfast and the place still looked like a toyshop, where all those extra presents came from I don't know. "Where was Tom yesterday, I didn't see him?" "Studying I suspect Con, or burying his sausage somewhere." "Do you know when he starts medical school?" "Not for another nine months Con." "Do you want to help me re-design the flats?" "Okay, the first thing I want is a slide down to the street, it will save us waiting for the lift." I laughed thinking of his slide to the beach on his Sydney apartment he never got. "We can go see an architect sometime and get the ball rolling but first your apartment and the one next door I would like to connect somehow to make it bigger. I was thinking that maybe Tom and Shane might live in it, if not we can use it sometimes maybe when we need to see a show in the city or something." He grinned. "Well I'll take the or something Con." I winked at him. In the meantime I messaged Tom to find out what weekend he and Shane were free for a night or two at the beach house. I got no immediate answer. "I want to go to the beach house sometime Con and I want Tom and Shane to come with us, they will appreciate the solitude I think and I really need to talk to them seriously about their relationship, just to ease my mind that's all." "Do you think there's trouble?" "No not at all Con, I just want a catch up really." "Okay I'm in for that ring him." "I just messaged him but no answer yet." No sign of Con before I left, he will meet us at the park, so I picked Ted up and headed there. Tom turned up twenty minutes later, he looked good, very good, he's growing up and out, what a heartbreaker. "I didn't answer you because I thought I would call by today, we are free every weekend so you pick Brent, it's going to be ace. We can have our own private room at last, it's a bit scary at my place and Shane's mum and dad make us sleep in separate rooms so I don't stay there often." "Do they know about the two of you?" "Yes Brent but they're old fashioned like that but it's okay, we manage, but I'm getting sick of the quickies we have, you know what I mean?" "I certainly do, so you don't think Shane will have any problems coming?" "Not at all, they don't mind just not in their house that's all. Me going to med school helps, they like me." "Okay maybe not this weekend but the next, we will pick you both up on the way or would you rather meet at our place?" "Your place Brent, I can stay at Shane's the night before, he's only around the corner from you." "It will be good to catch up, been awhile." "Well I have been pretty busy sorting my luggage out." He giggled. "So you think he's the one?" "I think so Brent but it's early days and we are just going to take it slowly. I don't want any dramas and he's full on into getting good marks at school that's all, he wants to be a stockbroker." "Well if you need anything just ask Tom, we are not far away and you should get him talking to Ray about the stock market, he's a wiz at it." "Cool, I will see you in a week then, I have to go and meet him and Skye they get along really great, she's doing all right at school too." "That's good, I thought you two would like her." He kissed my cheek, thanked me and left to go be with his young man. Soon after I saw my gorgeous man getting out of a limo in the car park, he looked tired and his swagger looked labored again. "What's up?" "Nothing." "Sure?" I droned. "Yep" "Run?" "Yep" So we took off to do some track work, the kid's laughing warmed my heart as we turned the first corner when Conner pulled me behind a tree and deeply kissed me. "What's up?" "Just missed you that's all." "Okay." "We need to do this more often then." "Yep." He leaned in and kissed me again. "Gross," I heard as Bubby ran past then he gave a loud, full on giggle. Teddy was on his heels and waved as he went by so we trotted up behind him, I think he was thinking we were playing chase so he sped up. "Slow down baby, you will fall over," I yelled at him. He's a good runner and maybe the Olympics are in his sights. So was Conner, his bum bounced around that track in unison with my cock. "Brent that's a bit out there isn't it?" "What Andy?" "Umm the boner." I hadn't realized I had thrown a chubby so red faced I immediately sat down. "Sorry." "Guess watching Conner's butt will do that." "It does big time." I smirked. "I can tell." He smirked back; maybe he's taking lessons from Adam. "So how is Bubbie's bookkeeping going?" Andy groaned. "It's actually easy to teach that six year old all about bookkeeping, he picks things up so quickly, He can now pay some of his parent's bills online, with my supervision that is." He chuckled. "Well I had better talk to Con about putting him on the payroll." I smiled. "Jesus don't do that Brent he's already asking what a wage scale is, I've managed to put him off so far but god knows how long that will last." He looked panic stricken. "I'm sure Ray will come up with a payment plan, maybe flick him twenty dollars a week I'll talk to him tonight." I chuckled. I was looking over at Grant and the kids thinking its days like this that make me so happy to be alive. Conner was showing the kids how to kick goals, well actually he was playing with the football and wouldn't give it back so they all jumped on him and he was eventually pulled down and held while Dennis giggled and took off with the ball. Di Skye with Hope in tow came over the next day and she was over the moon, she loved the school and it hadn't taken her long to get some girlfriends. Her personality was awesome, maybe a little too trusting but quite out there, she's a leader and I believe her big sister is so proud of her. As she changed Hope's crappy nappy she was asking Conner when his next concert would be as she hadn't seen him on stage yet, and was looking forward to it. Conner said it would be awhile before he treads the boards again but she will be up front and center when he does, our little crowd is getting bigger. "I'll talk to Marty, he will get one organized, I want to take my girls with me so there will be four of us. Sis what time does Marty get home today?" I couldn't stop laughing at Conner's face and Skye gave a shy, `what have I done,' smirk to Di and me, she was baiting him. "Skye I just got back from Vegas, I need a big rest." "No you don't, you're a trooper and troopers are ready to get back on their horses and ride out again and again, just like my captain here." She leant over and kissed Ted's head. Ted blushed; he is straight. Changing the subject I started talking to Di about her baby that's on the way and she said everything was perfectly fine and no problems were foreseen. She said her work had dried up and she was looking forward to the birth. "Has there been any interest in Skye doing modeling?" "Marty says she's perfect but he won't put her on his books until she finishes school, but darling Brent I'll let her tell you what's going to happen," she said tongue in cheek. I looked over at Skye and she gave me a solemn look. "I'm going to do politics and law studies I want to concentrate on the internal and external politics of Papua, maybe the presidency. I need to help my people move into the twenty first century with as little pain as possible. Then I'm going to kick some Indonesian butt." She believed that statement; at least her heart was in the right place. "She really doesn't need to work Brent, when we opened that safety deposit box it was full of bonds and shares but we haven't told her yet, maybe later on when she's the president," Di whispered to me. "Hello, I'm in the room kids," Skye yelled at us. Con jumped, Hope started crying so Conner picked her up and settled her with a show tune. Before Di left Con went to the hallway cupboard and took out two large bags of toys. "No more Conner, he's got enough." She patted her belly. "No, these are for Hope, she needs some new ones, maybe you can take the old ones to Mary's." He grinned. John was on the doorstep not long after she left, he had dinner cooked and made us coffee as we discussed next weekend, they wanted to come with us because they needed a break too and I can't cook. "Teach me then," I said. "Anytime but you have to do what I tell you and no mucking around." I was offended, I don't muck around.... that much. Dinner was delicious, he had made a beef stroganoff to die for, even Ted liked it until he found out there were mushrooms in it, he switched to the pasta. There were horsy rides tonight, sometimes Ted's so grown up then other times he's a little kid again. Conner was lying on his back on the sofa while Ted bounced up and down on his tummy, Con's hair were the reigns and his horse noises sounded like he was doing a concert. I so wanted to be Ted at that moment. I decided that I would try to ride a horse when Ted went to sleep, when I looked over again Con was leering at me, I suppose he had the same thought. Con had TV in the morning so he had to be up at five. He fumbled his way to the bathroom and I heard the shower go on, I must have gone back to sleep because the next thing he was kissing me goodbye. "Oh Con I wanted to get you some breakfast." "Its okay lover I can have something at the studio, are you going to watch the show?" "Of course, good luck and I will see you at the park maybe." Another long lasting kiss and a bit of a grope from my gorgeous man then he left me alone, I did contemplate having a pull but thought I had better hold off until tonight. Ted left for school with Ray so I sat at the table and looked at the apartment building plans. I really don't know what I'm looking at but made some notes anyway. I wondered if Con would forgo my old flat and we could do the top floor as one very large penthouse, the views over the city would be awesome. I made another note and then it was time for Con's show. He didn't sing but I recorded it for Ted to watch later. It was a really funny interview as Con pulled out all the stops to give the host a taste of his sense of humor. She was trying to be serious and she tried to ask some difficult questions but he wasn't buying any of that so changed the subject very quickly. He was awesome, his shiny wavy hair was on show to the world and his smile melted my heart. He was being a male slut and lifted his hair and put it in a man bun while he talked, the interviewer was dumb struck. I could tell she liked him, probably creaming in her panties. Grant followed me to the park where I waited for our son to arrive when I noticed Ray was carrying Ted and John was looking upset. "What's the matter baby?" I took him in my arms and sat at the table as he buried his head in my shoulder and kinda sniffled. I looked at John and he related the story to me. "One of the other kids was picking on him so his mates set the kid straight, I think it's just a bit of a shock. He kept calling him names and made a few not very nice suggestions about him and his dads." He had a concerned smile. "Oh." "It's just kids stuff Brent, he doesn't really know the words and as far as everyone at school knows Conner is his father and you just live with them." "I know it's sort of hush hush but it has to be that way," I replied as I wiped Ted's tears and he kissed my cheek. "I'll tell you more later," Ray added. John unloaded his basket and put some afternoon tea on the bench while I whispered in Ted's ear that he was to go play his game and we would have a big talk when dad gets here. He looked around the oval and saw Sean, Dennis and Bubby were standing there waiting for him and they looked a little concerned. Bullying at school is rife, they catch the culprit but then another wanna be steps in to take over, it's never ending. But they are just little kids, what do they know about life itself? They just want to have fun, sleep and eat so nothing should worry them. He finally ran off with the boys when Grant came over and had a stern talk to him as captain. "Now what happened?" "The kid was calling him a poof all morning, I don't know whether the boy knew what he was saying wasn't nice but he's heard that word somewhere before, maybe at home. They had a tussle in the playground and both were called to the office. Mrs. Green has written a note to his parents and he was made to apologize and promised never to use that word again." "He's just a little upset because he says he didn't know the words but he thought they were bad." "What do I do?" I looked at both of them. "Don't make a big deal out of it, he's going to hear much worse as he grows up so maybe at this very moment no big fuss." "May I talk with you for a minute?" a young lady said as she walked up to the table. "Sure and you are?" "I'm Sandy's mum Rachael, I read Mrs. Green's note my son gave me and I wanted to apologize personally for his bad behavior. He doesn't learn those words from me; it's my husband that uses them. He works in a factory where his workmates use the words all day and he thinks they are normal. I am trying to get him to lay off in front of Sandy but sometimes he just forgets. So I am so sorry Ted was upset. Sandy won't use them again, I will see to that and he will apologize again in the morning." She smiled. "It's okay Rachael, we can't shield them from the world, crap happens so don't be too hard on your son please." "I won't Brent but he will get a two minute break in the naughty corner, I will make my husband do it." She giggled. "Where is he now?" "My mum's looking after him, I wanted to come see you alone." "Would you like a coffee and cake?" "Sure that would be nice." She was a mum and very pleasant, she loved her boy very much which I understood completely. Conner arrived with one of his minders and he sat and we talked. I said we wouldn't make a big thing out of it. The kids will soon forget it ever happened and life will go back to normal. Rachael said her goodbyes but not before she coaxed an autograph out of Conner, she is a big fan. I told him he looked beautiful on TV and I couldn't wait to watch the replay. He wanted to go for a run but I wasn't up to it so he became concerned but I reassured him everything was okay. Ted was in a better mood when we got in so I told him that we were going to watch dad's interview on TV and then we are going to have a good talk. "Am I in trouble dad?" "No son not at all, let's watch dad and then we talk okay?" "Okay." He turned the TV on. We sat and watched, Ted clapped, I lusted... Con laughed. "She wanted some scandal out of me but I was too fast for her, I put her off her game" He laughed again. "It's a good interview Con, you were so funny." "That's what I do baby, turn it into a joke." He kissed me. "Come on Ted, let's have a family meeting." "Okay dad but I'm not in trouble am I?" "Of course not baby." I kissed his head. "Now Ted what Sandy was calling your dad and you today were bad words and I don't want you to ever repeat them. Sandy doesn't know what they mean and he will apologize to you again in the morning, we would like you to give him a hug and forgive him." "Okay dads but he makes me mad, I know what poof means dad, Sean tells me and it's wrong. My dad isn't a poof he's my dad and so are you. I tells him that I have two dads at home and he's jealous that's all." "Well maybe you better not tell everybody you have two dads then there won't be any trouble." Conner was trying to help. "No daddy, Bubby says that I should be proud I have two daddies and Sandy has just got to get over it, I think he's jealous that's all." "Okay then but if you hear bad words don't repeat them because Sean might get upset and the other two little girls that have two dads and mums." "Sean wanted to beat him up dad, he doesn't take any crap from no one." He shook his head from side to side. "Teddy Richards did you just say crap?" I put my surprised voice on. "Yes daddy." He slumped. "One minute in the naughty corner now." I pointed to his little chair so he marched over and sat but was grinning from ear to ear and yes the fists were crunched up. I grabbed Con and we went to the bathroom where I let my giggling go then I kissed him. I groped his man parts and nuzzled his neck and he barred up and I was about to undo his zipper when we heard, "Daddy is it one minute yet, I got to feed Benny?" "Yes son coming." Instead of Con's zipper, which was erotic, I had to open Ben's can of dog food, which wasn't. Ray and John arrived with a platter of gourmet sandwiches and we talked for a while but with Ted there it was hard to be open. I thought I would forget about it, it's no big deal anyway, words are words but sometimes they hurt. "What have you got on this week Con?" Ray asked. "Laying down another track, this album is taking ages." He smiled at me. I jumped up and took my notes off the kitchen bench then handed it to him. "That's better." He grinned. He hummed as he read the words we had written down then wrote some lines and banged the table. "Another number one Brent, thank you." He kissed me then John and Ray as he went to put the coffee on. "Do you get royalties Brent?" Ray asked. "No, it's all Conner's work, I just wrote a few lines." "You should get royalties as a co-writer, I will do a contract." "Ray shut up, he's got plenty of money and you've got enough to do." John was smiling. I know they were only joking and just lifting the mood, it was getting a bit solemn, well Con was anyway. "While we are on the subject of money Ray, can you slip Andy an extra twenty in his pay packet each week from my account?" "Why's that Brent?" "Well he's got Bubs working for him for an hour after practice, apparently he's very good at picking things up and is already asking Andy about wage scales and things, I thought maybe if he slips Bubs a twenty a week that might stop his nagging." I grinned. "And you want to have some fun with him don't you?" John said. "Well yes I think its cute, my first job was a paperboy round, although I was a little older than bubs but I felt like a millionaire on pay day." "It's done Brent, anyone else you want to put on the payroll?" "No that's it for now Ray." I noticed all three of them were grinning at me. "Can you do that again?" Con was asking. "Sure baby, do you want it hard or soft?" "Soft please." He moaned. Rimming Con was my all time favorite thing to do, unfortunately as I worked him up he was still looking at the paper humming and fixing a few words. I finally gave up and checked on Ted then turned my light out. "Hey where did you go?" "Night night Con, I love you." I left him there with his knees bent up probably trying to work out when I stopped making love to him. He wasn't with me and I was getting tired. The last thing I heard was him sighing, then the next I heard was Ted flushing the toilet, it was morning. Con had moved over in the night and was almost pushing me out of bed so I relented and got up, leaving him to dream away alone.
