The morning came too early for me, but I told myself to get up and finish off this great first week of broadcasts. I did my usual routine and again my man was waiting for me with his friendly smile and beautiful naked body at the breakfast bar. He had a mug of coffee ready for me and embraced me with a long kiss and a true bear hug. I said "thanks dear, I appreciate what you have been doing for me this week. Please go back to bed and get some rest." Wally replied "don't worry about me, I am fine. I'll be waiting for you here when you return. We'll decide what to do for our Sunday afternoon then." The Sunday shows went fine with no technical glitches encountered. Overall, I was so pleased with my week and looking forward to the remote shows. After my last show I checked email. Laura had responded to me about the skype call saying it was all set up for my personal email account. I logged off and was getting up from my chair when Bailey appeared at my door. I smiled and said "you're a workaholic!" He cracked up and said "I have one important thing to get done today and it's good news for you." I smiled and said "hopefully it deals with Trevor?" He grinned and said "it sure does. I'm meeting him here at 9:00 am to make him an offer before he returns to Tennessee." I shook Bailey's hand and said "congratulations boss! I hope Trevor accepts, and I'll be happy to help him out in any way I can. I watched his 6:00 pm show last night. He did good, but my first area for him to work on is his voice inflection." Bailey cracked up and said "you're too good. That's the first item on my list to address as well. Other than that, I felt he had a solid performance on both broadcasts. I believe with more experience he will be a fine addition to the weather team. I'm going to have him work Saturday morning and Sunday morning and evening. We'll do radar coverage only on Saturday night with the anchor while I find a fourth team member." Bailey continued and asked me "are you ready for your live remotes?" I smiled and said "yes, I am psyched to get them under my belt. It's exciting for me and I hope they go well." Bailey replied "don't worry CJ, you only have one week under your belt. If something does not go as planned you will learn from it and grow even more. However, seeing you this week, I believe both of your live shows are going to go very well." Bailey walked me out to the news room and said "Oh, by the way I played all of your segments for Trevor yesterday. He was very impressed and hopes he can do half as good as you." I smiled and said "Trevor will do fine. He has all the basic skills and techniques down. With more experience, he will help round out the weather team very nicely. Before you know it, you'll have the number one weather team in the Nielsen ratings Bailey. Bailey laughed and said "that is definitely a goal I want to shoot for." I shook Bailey's hand at the exit and said "will you do me a favor and text me later today to let me know if Trevor accepts?" Bailey said "I sure will CJ. Get some sun today and enjoy your Sunday. I'll see you tomorrow." I headed back to the condo and found my stud muffin still asleep. I went into the closet and changed my clothes. I slipped into bed and put his arm around me. He embraced me and said "welcome back my love. You care if I just lay here more and hold you tight?" I replied "this feels wonderful Wally. Hold me as much as you want to and let's enjoy our morning." I fell back to sleep feeling safe and secure in Wally's arms. We were both awakened about two hours later to find Alex licking both of our faces. I turned to Wally and said "honey, please let the pup out." Wally busted out a laugh, looked at Alex and said "what do we owe this obnoxious visit to Alex?" Alex grinned and did his usual giggle. He said "in just three days, I'll be with my man in Indiana. I woke up in a great mood and my day is going very well today. I decided to stop up and see what you two were doing. I did not expect you two to still be in bed! Come on you two, up and at it! I'll buy you both lunch." I propped myself up, smiled and ruffled Alex's hair. I said "okay, I'm up for it, what do you have in mind for lunch?" He said "I am starved this morning and craving some meat and eggs. How about the diner, and I'll get the steak and egg platter?" Wally perked up on the suggestion and said "that does sound good you stud! Do me a favor though, give us 30 minutes alone to get ready? I promise you that you won't be disappointed with the results." Alex and I cracked up and he said "okay, I'll be out on the patio. You two take your time and come get me when you're ready to take off." Wally and I made it into the bathroom and stepped into the shower. He just stood under the shower head for a few minutes and said "this feels good babe, I need to wake up." I began to apply soap all over him and gently washed his front, his back and everywhere else in between. I got down on my knees and said "tell me if this wakes you up handsome." I took his cock and gently started working it into my mouth. He spoke up and said "oh yeah, that's what I need this morning. A hot mouth on my cock belonging to an even hotter man who stimulates me in so many ways." I continued my work on Wally and soon had him worked up to a full mast. It did not take him long to begin shooting large streams of cum into my mouth. I captured it all, stood up and shared it back and forth with him. He wrapped his arms around me and I wrapped my arms around his neck. We continued our passionate kissing for quite a while. Soon he broke the kiss, looked into my eyes and said "okay, you woke me up sweetheart. I love you, and was I dreaming or was Alex in bed with us?" I broke out in a deep laughter saying "that was no dream. Alex left himself in and got in bed with us." Wally grinned and said "I'll change the locks tomorrow." Alex drove us to the diner. I was sitting in the back seat and opened up a text from Bailey on my phone. The text said "Trevor accepted the offer and will start July 22. Have a great day CJ and good luck tomorrow and Tuesday. Who knows, I might make an appearance at one or both of your shows." I shouted "YES!!" Alex looked at me and said "did you get good news?" I replied "I sure did. Trevor accepted Bailey's offer and starts July 22." Wally said "that's awesome CJ, your schedule will go back to a normal week format in just two weeks. Are you okay with that?" I leaned up, gave Wally a kiss and said "yes, I will be fine. This is better than I expected. I fully expected to be doing this daily schedule through mid-August. It will be nice to get to a regular Monday through Friday routine." We made it to the diner and did not have to wait for a table. The waitress brought us each an ice water and menus. Alex and Wally were already set for the steak and eggs platter. I looked through everything and decided on pancakes, eggs and ham for a change. The waitress returned, took our orders and collected our menus. I was getting very hungry and looking forward to the meal. Alex spoke up and said "I did not want to say this last night as I didn't want to disclose any sexual orientations to Aaron. CJ, do you think that Bailey is gay? Between hiring you, Ronny and now Trevor I think he has an attraction for younger, hot stud muffins." Wally laughed and said "yes, I noticed that Trevor is a nice piece of eye candy on television." I cracked up and said "yes, I noticed that as well about Trevor. Alex, I'm not sure if Bailey is gay, straight or bi. He has never mentioned a wife, but I will be on the gaydar watch now that you mentioned your theory to me." Our food came and we all dug into our plates. I spoke back up and said "guys, thanks for accepting Aaron last night into the group. When I met him, I thought there was something special about him and I found out what it is yesterday afternoon. Did he tell you two about his life thus far?" Wally spoke up and said "yes, he disclosed that you and him talked about losing parents in your life. He spoke very highly of you CJ after you went to bed. I feel that he will become a great addition to our circle which is no problem at all. I believe that he is a quality individual who is seeking people to be in his life that he's comfortable with. I'll hang out with him anytime as he's fun to be around and can carry on intelligent, witty conversations." Alex said "I cannot add much more. He's welcome to hang around me anytime, and I know he is looking forward to the poker nights." I grinned and said "we'll get those started in August." Everyone finished every bit of food on their plates. Alex said "what do you two have on your agenda for the rest of the day? Wally said "whatever my man needs me to do to keep him satisfied!" I grinned and said "alrighty then. We'll start with a deep tissue massage, followed by a hot bubble bath and a nice cup of mint tea. Seriously though, I do need to get several loads of laundry done and I have a call with the family at 4:00 this afternoon. Other than those two items, I think I'm going to keep a low profile and rest up for the week ahead. How about you Alex?" He spoke up and said "I need to do laundry as well, and I was hoping to steal your man for a while this afternoon if you don't mind?" Wally said "no one ever wants to steal me, I am honored you big stud. What do you have in mind?" Alex said "I have several repairs pending in the workshop and I need a second set of hands to help me out. Are you game for it?" Wally sighed and said "once again, you want me for my brute strength and not for my mind! Sure, I'll help you out Alex. Name the time and I'll be there." Alex said "thanks Wally, I appreciate it. Let's plan for meeting at my shop around 1:30." We got back to the complex where we departed. Wally and I went up to our place and I got to work on laundry. Wally said "I have to make a couple of calls babe; I'll be on the patio." I said "sounds good, let me know if I can get you anything." I sorted the laundry and started my first load in the washer. I got the electric broom and mop out. I ran the broom through all the rooms, and took the mop through the kitchen, master bedroom and both bathrooms. While I was in the bathrooms, I looked at the rug sets, and they have seen better days. I started a list for my next home store visit with two sets of bath rugs and laundry baskets for each bedroom closet. About 30 minutes later I received a call from a local number I did not recognize. I answered the call and discovered it was Daniel the chief meteorologist. He asked "did I get you at a bad time CJ?" I replied "no, I have time to talk now. I'm just doing some laundry and cleaning up my place a little. What's up with you today, Daniel?" He replied "I'm kicking back with the family today CJ and resting up for a busy week. I wanted to reach out to you and tell you what a great job you did this past week. Each day I was so impressed with your broadcasts. I cannot believe how smooth you are and you look so natural on camera. Keep up the good job!" I said "thanks Daniel, your comments mean so much to me. I was able to catch several of your 6:00 shows this last week, and I know I can learn quite a few tips and tricks from you." Daniel replied "you contact me anytime and I'll be happy to help out. I'm also calling for another reason. My wife and I are celebrating our 15th anniversary this year. I'm surprising her with a trip to Paris. I always ask before I finish plans and notify Bailey but do you see any problems with you covering for me the week of October 16th?" I replied "that should be fine Daniel. Did you hear that Bailey hired a weekend weather anchor?" Daniel said "yes, Bailey and I discussed it this afternoon. During our conversation I did ask him if he wanted you or Trevor to cover for me. Bailey advised me that you will cover the evenings and Trevor will cover your morning shows." I said "okay, that sounds good. I'm looking forward to giving the evening shows a shot." Daniel concluded the call and said "thanks CJ for your help on this. You'll do a fine job in the evenings. Enjoy your remote broadcasts this week, and have a good rest of the weekend. Bye CJ." I continued to busy myself around the condo, and finished the laundry. I need to press my dress shirts, but I have until Wednesday before I need a dress shirt to wear in the studio. Wally stepped back into the condo and said "hey studly, I am going to help Alex. Is there anything I can do for you?" I said "no sweetheart, I am good. You two have fun and thank you for helping Alex out." He said "it's no problem, he has done so much for you and me that this is a small repayment to him. I'm happy I'll be able to help him out now. I'll see you later Martha!" I cracked up, gave him a kiss and said "get out of here and go help our friend out." I ended up pressing five of my shirts before I needed to get on the call with the family. I got myself a glass of ice water and went to the office. I was late when I entered the call as UD, Aunt Sally and the girls were all there." I started in with a wave to everyone and said "hi there everyone. You all look good." Aunt Sally replied "hello there you television star. How are you and how does it feel to have one week under your belt?" I replied and said "everyone, it feels absolutely wonderful. I feel energized with what all I accomplished, and am looking forward to my remote shows tomorrow and Tuesday." UD said "you are going to do fine. Just take your positivity from last week into the remote shows and they will come out wonderful for you CJ. I shared your pictures with Sally and the girls. Is the third guy in the pictures Alex?" I said "yes that is Alex who is the property manager at the condo complex. He and Wally have been helping me tremendously around here. As you saw, the three of us built a kegerator and cabinet yesterday on the patio. We christened it yesterday with some Heineken beer. We also played a number of dart games on the new dartboard." UD spoke back up and said "everything looks very nice on that side of the patio CJ. After seeing your pictures, I commissioned my sign painter to create you a special gift which I'll bring you when we visit in August." Aunt Sally took over the conversation and said "as far as August CJ, does the week of July 31st work for you for a visit? We're thinking about coming in on July 30th and leaving the following Sunday August 6th. I know that is a couple of weeks before Wally and your birthdays, but it's going to be tough for us to do anything after that week in August due to the girls' schedules." I said "that week will be great. Ronny starts work on the 31st, but we'll handle everything fine. Wally already said that I can stay with him and Alex is going to put Ronny up at his place while you are here." UD said "nonsense, we're not kicking you out of your new home. We'll get a hotel and visit you as much as we can at the condo." I cracked up and said "double nonsense UD! It's all settled here and you five will stay in my condo. You and Aunt Sally can have the master bedroom and the girls can fight over the other two bedrooms. Each bedroom has a queen size bed, so there is plenty of room for all of you. During the day you can visit the pool, go to area attractions or just relax! Wally has that week off and has already volunteered himself to be your tour guide. He shuts down his company the last week of July and first week of August so the workers can squeeze in a final vacation with the family before school starts." UD said "CJ are you sure about this, because I feel terrible about inconveniencing you like this." I smiled and said "UD, it is no problem at all. It's my honor to have you all visit and this is the end of discussion. You're staying here and that's final!" UD gave in and said "okay CJ. We'll at least get a rental car for our use during the week. I know that Sally and the girls will want to visit an outlet mall at some point. I'll hang out with Wally if he is up for it?" I cracked up and said "I know he will want to hang out with you UD so that won't be a problem whatsoever." Aunt Sally asked "can you think of anything Wally wants for his birthday? I already have a number of gifts in mind for you, but I want to get him something as well for what all he has done for you and UD." I said "let me think on that Aunt Sally. I do know he enjoys an occasional cigar to smoke just like UD. UD introduced him to a brand while he was down here and Wally enjoyed it tremendously. Perhaps a cigar sampler or a small humidor might be a nice gift?" Aunt Sally said "I'll let Dean take care of that while you keep thinking of other ideas for him." I asked everyone "do you want a tour of the station while you're here, and are you interested in watching a live broadcast? The noon broadcast is probably the easiest to get you all into." Everyone screamed "yes, that will be fun." UD said "see if you can arrange it son. On that day, I'd also like to have lunch catered in for the entire staff there. I hope your GM might be agreeable to the idea?" I chuckled and said "I'm sure he will be open to it UD, but you really don't need to do it." UD smiled and said "triple nonsense! This is the end of this discussion and a lunch will be catered if your GM approves!" I promised UD that I will check into things this week and let him know. I informed everyone of Bailey hiring Trevor and he will be starting on July 22nd. UD said "that's wonderful CJ. I'm glad to hear that you won't be putting in seven days a week too long." I also informed them that I'd be doing the night shows the week of October 16th to fill in for Daniel. Laura spoke up and said "CJ sometime do you think you can put me in touch with James Thompson at Maumee? I'd like to get more information about television broadcasting." I replied "of course I will Laura! This is very exciting for me to hear you expressing an interest in my career field." Sally said "you've got her attention CJ. She has been asking us questions about how she can get started to see if her interests are valid." I said "Laura, you can start with two things. When you get to high school, join the audio and visual club. I believe they are still doing a morning newscast on the television station. That's where I got my start in the field. Also, you may want to consider taking meteorology as a science elective so you can start learning about weather. In the meantime, I'll put you, your mom and dad in touch with James Thompson. Maybe you three can visit him sometime and he can give you plenty of information about the Maumee programs available." I asked "UD and Aunt Sally, have you two thought any more about what to do with the Florence Grill?" UD spoke up and said "nothing concrete yet CJ. I have done some inquiry on restaurant properties in St Pete Beach. Real estate is much more expensive there than I thought it would be. We're going to continue looking into things, but it's definitely a bigger investment than I thought it would be." I said "take your time with it, and if I can do anything here for you just let me know." I said "everyone it has been so good to talk to you, but I'm going to end here soon and get some dinner then hit the sack. I get to dress casual for the next two days and even get to wear shorts on my remote segments." Maddie and Josie both whistled and said "show off those sexy legs you hunk!" Everyone chuckled on that and I replied "thanks girls, I enjoyed that!" Aunt Sally said "CJ, get some good sleep and we'll all be watching you the next two mornings." UD spoke up and said "you got these live shows just like everything else you accomplished this past week. Do a great job and kick some butt tomorrow for all of us!" I said "I will UD. Everyone take care and Happy July 4th to all of you! I love you all. Good night, everyone." I closed the call and shut the laptop down. I searched the condo, and Wally was still gone. I got more ice water and decided to surprise him and Alex at the shop. When I went into the shop the radio was jamming out some classic rock songs. I found Wally and Alex putting very large clamps around a pipe. I said "there are my two workers! How are things going?" Alex smiled and said "Wally has helped me out so much this afternoon. It would have taken me forever had I not had his help. I feel so good getting the items off my list before I leave to meet up with Ronny." I smiled at Wally and said "that's my man -- always willing to help a friend in need." Wally grinned, wiped some grease on Alex's cheek and said "I enjoyed it today Alex and I'm glad we spent the afternoon together free balling!" I told them both that I just finished my call with the family and said I had to share the discussion with both of them. I turned to Alex and said "do you know a good Mexican place?" He said "yes, there is Mi Casa Fiesta." Wally said "oh yeah, that place does have good Mexican food." I said "perfect. Let's clean up, load up the jeep and go get dinner my treat. I've got a craving for nachos and a margarita." Within 30 minutes we were at the restaurant. We ordered a pitcher of margaritas and a plate of nachos to start with before ordering entrees. I smiled and said "were your ears burning during the 4:00 hour, because I told a few white lies and drew you both into them!" Alex cracked up and said "should we be scared?" I said "no, I just need your help along with Ronny's the week of July 31st. I told them about the family visiting that week and that I insisted they will stay at the condo while here. I told them that the three of us have already discussed it and I will be staying at Wally's place that week while Ronny will stay with Alex. Are you two okay with this before I go any farther? I know UD has already said he will get a hotel, but I want them to enjoy the condo and figured it will not be too much of a problem for one week." Wally said "it's no problem at all for me stud. You can share my bed with me!" I said "that's the best offer I've had". I said "I will move my suits for the week over to your closet so I will not bother UD and Aunt Sally in the mornings." Wally smiled and said "it's all good for me." Alex was showing his big smile as well. He spoke up and said "no problem with me either CJ. I know it's Ronny first week at work, but it's a small adjustment and we'll deal with it. I'm sure Ronny will not have a problem with anything. If he does, I'll make it up to him in bed that week." I cracked up and said "thanks guys. I love you both for helping me out with this." The margaritas came, and Wally poured us each one. I said "oh wow, very good and tasty." Alex and Wally both agreed. I turned to Alex and said "by the way, Ronny forgot to tell me how the guest mattress and box springs are? Do you find them comfortable or do I need to consider a replacement set?" Alex said "I think you'd be spending money foolishly at this point. The mattress and box spring are fine in that room. Perhaps in another couple years you may want to switch them out, but they're in good shape for now." Wally snickered and said "they'll be worn out in five months after Ronny and Alex get through with them!" I turned to Wally next and said "Aunt Sally wants to know what she can get you for your birthday. I told her that you enjoyed a cigar brand with UD. I informed her that you like an occasional cigar in the evenings. So, I suggested a cigar sampler, a box of cigars or a humidor for you. She said for me to keep thinking about something else and she'll let Dean take care of the cigar gift for you. Hopefully, we'll score several boxes of UD's favorites." Wally smiled and said "good deal. She does not have to get me anything." I said "I know that and you know that. UD and Sally are from the same mold. You're going to end up with birthday gifts as well, so just accept and enjoy them. I'm sure by the end of the week Alex and Ronny will be smothered in gifts as well." Alex smiled, giggled and said "I take a large usually. And if she decides to buy banana hammocks for everyone, I need an extra-large." I was not expecting that and choked on my margarita. Wally just smiled and said "well done Alex. You are now leading the smart-ass club, congratulations!" We all got a big laugh on the entire topic. Our nachos arrived and were delicious. Alex said "do you two like chicken and steak fajitas?" Wally and I nodded yes and Alex requested a steak and chicken combo fajita platter for the table, as well as another pitcher of margaritas. Wally looked at me and began to say something. I stopped him and said I know, "Dr. Frankenstein, you have created a monster!" Everything was delicious and our conversation never stopped flowing. The margaritas began to hit me, and I knew I'd sleep well. We paid the bill and headed back to the condo. I told Wally and Alex that I was going to hit the sack, but to make themselves at home. Wally looked at Alex and said "beer and darts?" Alex said "yeah stud, you read my mind!" I gave them each a kiss and hug and told Wally "join me when you want sweetheart. You two have fun." I went in to the kitchen and prepped the coffee maker. I brushed my teeth and set my wardrobe out for Monday. God it is so nice to pick a polo and shorts versus a suit and tie. I got into the bed and covered up. As I was lounging there, I said a prayer asking for God to guide me through the next two days as he saw fit. I was apprehensive about the live shows, but I kept recalling the words of UD, Wally, Alex and Ronny saying "you have got this CJ." I told myself "You do have this CJ. Believe in yourself just like all of your loved ones do." A smile came over my face and I kept repeating "you have got this CJ" over and over until I fell sound asleep.
