Please consider making a donation to Nifty (using link https://donate.nifty.org/). Let's keep this site going so that we all can enjoy the continued submission of stories. Wally and I woke up to his alarm the next morning and did our usual routine of hitting the bathroom then getting ready for the exercise room. We went down to the annex building and as usual had the room to ourselves. He cranked the stereo to a rock station, and our morning workout began. I felt very energized this morning. I'm not sure why, but I was lifting more than I have in the past and my tread mill run went very well this morning. We went back up to the condo and fixed protein shakes adding some of the fruit remainders to it. Wally headed for the patio and I followed him. I said "I feel good this morning, and the workout was very good for me." He looked at me and said "me too, babe. I like the early morning workouts." I replied "in a couple of weeks I will need to adjust my schedule to afternoon workouts during the week, but can we keep the morning workouts our routine for the weekends?" Wally said "I like that, and I'll match the time for your afternoon workouts a couple times a week." I smiled and said "deal, because I have got to keep looking good for my man!" Wally finished his shake, got up from the chair and gave me a kiss. He said "I'm going to take a shower. Sit here for a while and enjoy your day." I said "nah, lets start with a shower together." He smiled and said "okay, but I have to go into work today!" I told him "Don't worry, you'll be on time!" I love our showers together. This morning after I soaped him all over, I got down on my knees and devoured his cock. I got him moaning good, and he must have been overly horny. It wasn't even five minutes later when he was shooting cum streams on the shower wall. There was some coffee left over, so I warmed him a cup to go. He came out to the kitchen and grabbed his wallet, keys and the coffee mug from my hands. I wrapped my arms around him and gave him an extended kiss. I said "see, you're not late and I hope you are fully satisfied this morning?" He replied "I'm fully satisfied every morning that I wake up with you. I love you sweetheart; you enjoy your day and send me another picture today." I looked at him and said "I'll surprise you with several today stud!" I had not put any clothes on after the shower. I went to the refrigerator and poured myself a glass of juice, and grabbed a yogurt and a banana. I took everything to the living room, turned on the television and began to eat my breakfast. My welcome commercial came on with some slight variations. I enjoyed it and made a note to see if I can get the video links for all commercials sent to me so that I can share with the family. A few minutes after I sat down there was a knock at the door. I figured it was Wally forgetting that he had a key now. I opened the door and said "surprise!" Boy was I the one who was surprised, it was Alex. I blushed and said "Alex, come on in while I get some clothes on." Alex giggled and I returned clothed still flushed from the embarrassing incident. Alex cracked up and said "thanks for making my morning. You're everything I thought you'd be and more!" I busted out laughing and said "I thought you were Wally and had forgotten something." Alex replied "all I can say is that I wish more tenants would surprise me like that." He looked puzzled, then said "let me reword what I just said. I wish a few tenants in this building would surprise me like that!" I said "let me guess, units 401 and 402 are at the top of your list?" He said "you got it, but there are a few others that I need to get you introduced to." I told Alex to take a seat and asked "do you want a cup of coffee this morning?" He said "that sounds good CJ, if it's not too much trouble." I brewed a pot of coffee and went back to the living room to finish my breakfast. I said "I have cereal, yogurt and some fruits if you want anything for breakfast?" He said "no, I ate already but the coffee sounds great." I asked him "what's up with you this morning?" He said "a couple of things. First, I have several television mounts in the my workshop. We can see if one of them will fit your tv and mount it on the patio today if you want? I smiled and said "sure that sounds great and I can help you!" Alex continued on and said "I spoke to Ken Blake as he was leaving this morning. I informed him that you are going to put a keg on your patio, and I asked him if I can show his keg to you sometime this weekend? Ken said he is going to Orlando for the weekend but to show it to you anytime. So, when you are free, we'll go down to his place on the second floor." I replied "Alex -- you are the man! You did not have to go crazy and get everything lined up for today though." Alex grinned and said "that's what I am here for to assist tenants with their wants and besides your HOA fees cover my salary!" I went out to the kitchen and grabbed two coffee cups. I filled them with coffee and said "any cream or sugar in your coffee Alex?" He replied "no CJ, just black for me". I went back through the living room and said "let's have our coffee on the patio." Alex followed me out and said "wow, I forget how big these corner patio units are." I said "I know, as you can tell I need more furnishings as it's a little sparse now. I love being on the top floor and the view of the gulf is just beautiful every morning." I took a sip of coffee and said "what else do you have planned for me today?" He smiled and said "funny you mention it, but I need your help for planning happy hour tonight." I cracked up and said "Alex, it's no big deal. Pick something you like." Alex said "well that's the problem. I'm a social introvert. When I go out with people, I always have a good time and go with the flow. Like last night -- the tacos, beer and karaoke were awesome. But to plan something from scratch, I am out of my element." I told him "Okay, I'll make suggestions but the final choices are up to you. Sound like a plan?" He said "yeah that sounds good CJ, I appreciate it." I looked at him and said "how much money do we have left over from last night?" He replied "$122 plus change, will that cover a nice spread?" I said "yeah it will cover all three of us for a nice Friday night." Alex had a big smile come to his face and said "good, I want the fun to continue for us tonight. Too bad Ronny is not here tonight. If he were, I'd take him for a walk on the beach and leave you two alone." I smiled and said "do me a favor, next week after we finish at Mel's grab Ronny by the arm and say let's take a walk on the beach. I'll keep Wally occupied with a beer." Alex said "why does Ronny like walking on the beach?" I said "Ronny is like you and needs some nudging to get involved in things. He is a great guy, and once he gets going it's tough to stop him. You two have so many similarities and I know you're going to hit it off fine together. Let's just hope he gets the job down here and then you can let me plan your wedding for you and him!" Alex blushed and said "CJ, you're going way too far. Let's just see how next week goes when we meet." I said "sounds good Alex, but trust me I have a very good feeling about you and him. We just need to keep working on you to relax, and him to step it up a little." Alex giggled and said "okay, I'll trust you on this one." I went and got Alex and I another cup of coffee. I brought my phone out and told him to lean into me. I took a selfie and sent it to Wally with the caption "drinking coffee here with your bestie. The only thing missing is you! Love you!" I put the phone down and Alex and I continued our conversation. I asked him "so what do you want to start on when we finish this cup of coffee?" He replied "how does this sound to you? We'll first measure the television you are thinking about placing out here. Then we'll go down to Ken's and take a look at the keg. After that we'll go to the workshop and see if one of the mounts will work for your television. If I have one in stock, we'll come back up and install the television today. Once we're done, I'll take you to the store and we'll get the happy hour supplies for tonight." I looked at Alex and said "wow, you have the whole day planned out. It all sounds good, but are you sure you can spend so much time with me today?" Alex replied "it's not a problem. If anyone really needs me, they'll call me." My phone buzzed and it was a text from Wally. I pulled it up and it read "oh no, did I create a monster for you?" I typed back "no, it's all been good. I'll tell you every detail Saturday morning at our workout." He replied back with thumbs up, heart and laughing out loud emojis. Alex finished his coffee and said "are you ready to get started?" I took my last sip and said "yes, let's go to it!" We measured my three televisions and all are 40". I told Alex "The new one I got as a promotional gift is 55". How about we just use the one from the living room on the patio, and I'll put the larger new one in the living room?" He said "I think that is smart. The living room can handle a larger television." I put on a pair of flip flops and we headed out of the condo and down to the second floor. Ken's condo unit was on the opposite end of mine, but had the same corner unit patio. Alex opened the door and we went out to the patio. I took one look and said "WOW this is very similar to what I had in mind." Ken had placed his television outside of the master bedroom with a loveseat, two chairs and coffee table below for a sitting area. Off the living room exit, he had a table with six chairs for eating. On the corner he had a wicker patio set facing out to enjoy the gulf view. The other corner wall was where the keg was at. As Alex said, it was enclosed in a cabinet and looked very nice. There was also storage in the cabinet for glasses and a pitcher. Ken also placed a high-top table with two barstools between the bedrooms. It was all tastefully done and accented with some tropical plants throughout. I looked at Alex and said "do you think Ken will mind if I take some pictures?" Alex said "he told me to tell you to do so if anything interested you." I went back through everything and snapped pictures from various angles. I turned to Alex and said "how much work did you do on the keg for Ken?" He replied "I did all of it, and I may still have all the order forms in my workshop. We can check, and if you're sure about that setup, I can just place the same order over again?" I smiled and said "Alex, did you ever know that you're my hero?" He cracked up and said "come on, lets go to my shop." On the way to Alex's shop, I sent some of the pics to Wally and said "any of this look good to you?" A few minutes later he sent me a reply which said "I love it all -- it's perfect for the corner patio!" I said "I know -- this is what we'll aim for." Alex's shop was very well organized just as I expected it to be. He went over to a cabinet where he had the television mounts. He said "great, we have a 40" standard mount!" I said "perfect, do you add the cost of it onto my HOA fee?" He said no, tenants give me these when they don't use them so this one is yours CJ. Is your new one coming a 55"?" I said "yes, it is." He pulled out a box and said "a 55" standard mount also if you want to mount your new one on the living room wall." I replied "let me think about it and see how the first one looks." He said "okay, it's just sitting here if you want to install it next week." Alex headed for his office next and opened a file cabinet. He pulled out a file and said "I put Ken's keg in two years ago, and I have the original order with model numbers on all the parts. Do you want me to go ahead and place another order?" I asked him "what was the total on Ken's keg?" Alex said "$489 plus tax." I smiled, and said "order it big boy! I'll pour you the first beer once it's in!" Alex grabbed his tools, locked up his shop, and we took the television mount back up to my condo. Once we got in, I asked "how can I help you?" He said let's go to the patio and make sure I know where you want everything." We went to the master bedroom exit on the patio. I said "I'd like the television here. I plan to put a loveseat and two chairs below it." Alex said "I'll also add a metal border at the patio wall so that rain will deflect and miss the television." Alex went back into the bedroom to see how much cable there was in the room already, he saw plenty. He said "I'm going to drill a hole at the bottom of the wall over here. I'll feed the cable out the wall, and run it up the wall and around the ceiling to the television. Once we get it mounted, we'll hide the cable." I said "sounds good. What can I do?" He said "give me about twenty minutes and I'll yell for you. If you need to check emails, go ahead." I said "okay, I'll be in the living room." Ronny forwarded his flight information to me. His interview is scheduled for Wednesday morning, but he's going to fly in Monday afternoon and return to Indianapolis on Sunday afternoon. I sent him a confirmation email saying I have him covered for pickup and drop off, as well as taxi service for his stay. I told him to throw in a baseball glove if he had one and I'll meet him in the main terminal at the end of the tram route on Monday afternoon. Alex called me about ten minutes later saying he needed my help. We worked well together and about an hour later had the television mounted on the patio. Alex finished covering the cable with protective metal casings. Once he had everything wrapped up, he grabbed the remote from the living room and said "your remote Sir!" I turned on the tv, it came to life, I changed channels and adjusted volume. It all worked fantastic and looked great. I gave Alex a big hug and said "thank you Alex, I appreciate all of your help with it. It looks fantastic and fits in so well with my master patio plan." Alex replied, "you're welcome, CJ, it does look good. I think you hit a home run with this idea." Alex said "let me clean up my mess and the tools. I'll take everything back to the shop. While I'm there, I will order the kegerator and supplies. I'll be back up in about 30 minutes and we'll head out for the next stop on our day." I said "sounds good Alex. I'm going to make sure there's a big tip in your next paycheck." I sent a picture to Wally and it did not even take him five minutes to reply. He called me versus sending a text. I answered and said "what's up you gorgeous hunk?" He cracked up and said "man Alex is doing a kick-ass job for you." I replied, "Yes, he is. I was able to help him out, and I'm very pleased with the result." Wally then asked "what else are you two going to do today? "I told him "Alex wants to plan a special happy hour for us tonight, so we're going to head out for supplies later. He's in his workshop now ordering all the supplies for the kegerator." Wally said "how about adjusting your plans and add a couple more stops?" I said "sure, what are you thinking?" Wally said "call me when you two are ready to head out. We'll meet at the warehouse and trade vehicles. We can load up the rattan patio set in my truck to place around the television and you two can get that in place later today?" I said "that is a fantastic idea, and we'll still have plenty of time to get the happy-hour supplies. I'll give you a call when we're ready to head out. I love you big stud!" Wally said "love you more Mr. Weatherman!" Alex returned to the condo and asked me "ready to roll CJ?" I said "yeah, but how about a slight adjustment to plans?" Alex said "sure, it's not even close to noon yet. What do you have in mind?" I told him about getting the furniture in place to begin enjoying the patio television. He thought that sounded great and added "how about a nice outdoor area rug to finish off the area?" I looked at him and said "excellent suggestion Alex. Maybe I can find a couple of different patterns for the various sitting areas and some smaller rugs for the patio door entrances." Alex said "sounds great. Grab your keys and let's roll!" I have to admit it was such a pleasure to see Alex relaxing and enjoying himself. He and I are going to be good friends and I'm glad to see he's opening up to me. We went to the store Alex had in mind, and his suggestion was absolutely perfect. I found four area rugs with different beach themed pattens. The area rugs also had a matching door mat, so I bought one for each patio door. I also added in a `Welcome' door mat for the front door. I called Wally and said "we're leaving and should be at the warehouse in less than 15 minutes." We got to the warehouse and Wally was waiting for us. Alex and I pulled out the rugs and showed the patterns to Wally. Wally said "guys, these look fantastic. CJ, your patio is going to look fucking awesome!" I smiled and said "our patio stud is going to look fucking awesome." He flashed a big smile at me and we gave each other a big kiss. After we broke the kiss, I pulled Alex in and said "get in here my friend. You're part of us now." Wally and I each planted a kiss on Alex's cheeks. He blushed and said "thanks guys, I love our friendship and will do anything for you two." Alex and I loaded all of the rugs into Wally's truck cab. We then went into the warehouse and grabbed the rattan patio set. Alex commented "this is a very nice set; it will look great." The set was loaded in the truck bed and the cushions went into the cab. There was still room in the truck bed and Wally said "want to also take the chase lounge built for two?" My eyes got big and I said "hell yeah!" It fit in perfectly and we had a load ready to go. I handed my keys to Wally, gave him a kiss and big hug. He handed me his keys and said "you two take care and don't work too hard." Alex ruffled my hair and said "don't worry Wally I'll make sure your precious cargo is well taken care of the rest of the day." All three of us busted out in laughter, and Alex and I loaded ourselves into the truck. We took off and went back to the condo. The weather was looking unfavorable. We quickly got everything unloaded and into the condo before the rain started. I still had some leftovers and asked "Alex, do you want a drink and some munchies?" He replied "yes, that sounds good." I asked "what type of drink are you planning for happy hour?" He said "I am not sure yet, why?" I told him "I do not want to mix beer yet if we're going to enjoy some alcohol later." He said "okay, how about we just go with some ice tea now?" I grinned and said "sounds get Alex. Pour us a couple of glasses and we'll eat out on the patio." While we were eating the sky left loose. It was a typical Florida afternoon humidity breaker. We finished our food, and began the placement of patio items. I swept off the patio first. Alex and I liked the palm tree themed area rug for the television sitting area. We centered the rug and placed the rattan patio set around it. Once we had it all in place, we added the cushions and I cleaned off the glass top on the coffee table. Alex turned on the television and we sat down to enjoy the area. Alex looked at me and said "this is great CJ -- excellent choices." I thanked him and said "remind me to pick up a set of coasters with palm trees for the coffee table. He smiled and said "nice touch!" I chose the rug with blue anchors on it to go with the two-person chase lounge, as the blue in the rug matched the blue cushion on the lounge. I placed this facing out toward the gulf at the corner of the two patio areas. Alex said "a perfect fit." I agreed and said "I'm going to add a table and rocker on each side of it." Alex shook his head in approval of the further additions. Alex asked me "what do you want to do with the other two area rugs?" I showed him where they will go and said "I have another dining table and chairs coming from Wally's warehouse. We'll get it this weekend and place the third rug down with it. I'm thinking I want to get a high-top table and four chairs for the area over here. It will be close to the kegerator then and serve as an adult conversation area." Alex got a big smile on his face and said "what do you think about a dartboard above the kegerator? He said there should be enough room and if we need to, he can off center the keg tap to accommodate the dart board?" I said "nice touch Alex, let's add that to the list." He smiled and said "let's start a side business of patio designing!" I placed the door mat with palm trees in front of the master bedroom patio door. The blue anchor door mat went in front of the office sliding door. I decided that I will use the waves' theme under the dining table and placed the door mat at the living room entrance. The last theme was umbrellas and drink glasses. I decided to use this for the high-top table area and placed the door mat in front of the second bedroom entrance. Alex and I placed the remaining two area rugs into the second bedroom until we get the furniture in place. I said "let's go over to the tv area and kick back for a while. I grabbed us each a glass of ice tea, and got my notepad to create a happy-hour list. It was just 1:30, so we had plenty of time to plan the happy-hour, get the supplies and get back here to welcome the love of my life! I sat the teas down on the coffee table, turned on the television and pulled out my phone to send a text to Wally. I told Alex "Pick up your drink, give me a big wave and put your feet up on the coffee table." He did all that and I snapped a picture. I sent a text to Wally with the picture saying "we're waiting for you, my love. What time do you think you'll be coming back today?" He replied "it will probably be around 5:30. We're waiting on a delivery of ceiling rafters and making good progress on the plumbing problem which I'd like to finish up before the weekend." I texted back and said "sounds good babe, we'll be waiting for you. The happy hour planner is in the height of his glory!" I turned the television to the local radar site. I looked at Alex and said "it looks like happy hour may be here tonight." He said "that's fine whether it's here or at the pool we'll have fun." I then said "what type of drink are you thinking?" He looked at me and asked "do you two like vodka?" I shook my head yes, and he came back with "good, I think we'll go with bay breezes then." I looked up the recipe for bay breezes and added the ingredients needed to the list. Alex than said "how about a shrimp ring, a bread bowl with spinach dip and some crackers and cheese?" I smiled and said "sounds fabulous. You'll probably have some money left over." He said "okay, we'll stop off at the cigar store. I'll buy a nice sampler with some small cigars for me to try and get some bigger ones for you and Wally. Does that sound okay to you?" I smiled and said "what makes you want to try a cigar tonight?" He said "I've had a good day; I feel like our friendship is strengthening and I want to try one since you have been egging me on." I replied "sounds good Alex, but smoke one when you want to not just because I egg you on." He grinned and said "it's time. I have to admit I'm enjoying myself when I relax around you two. This will be one more step for me to let my hair down even more." I knew it was too early to leave but said "Alex, let's go ahead and leave now. I want to stop by the furniture store also where I made my purchases. If they have a high-top table with four chairs that I like, I'll see if they can add it on to the order and deliver it next week." He chugged his ice tea, gave me a big grin and said "let's motor CJ." We went to the furniture store first, and they had a high-top outfit I really liked. I found the salesperson I had dealt with, produced my previous sale paperwork and asked if this model of high-top and chairs was in stock, and can it be added on and delivered at the same time with everything else next week? He went to one of the kiosks, typed in numbers and said "yes, it's in stock and I can easily add it to your order." I looked at him and said "write up the sale! Do you have any idea when the furniture will be delivered next week?" He got the additional sale entered and said "we have you scheduled for delivery on Tuesday morning between 9:00 am and noon. Does that work out for you?" I said "it works out perfectly. Can I just pay for the high-top on my line of credit I set up?" The sales clerk replied "I set it up as an additional item on your original sale Mr. Skinner. Here is your revised statement and we'll see you next Tuesday." Alex and I went back to the truck and went to the cigar store next. Bruce greeted me and said "welcome back CJ, how can I help you today?" I said "hi Bruce. My friend Alex here is looking for a nice reasonably priced sampler with a variety of maduro and natural gauges and lengths." I looked over at Alex and I could tell I lost him with the terminology. Bruce smiled and said "I think I have what you're looking for Alex, follow me." We went into the humidor and Bruce said "we're running a $49 sampler special this week so go ahead and pick out ten cigars which suit your tastes." I looked at Alex and said "$49 is a great price. Do you want my help?" Alex shook his head yes and I said "Bruce do you have any vanilla flavored cigars?" Bruce nodded yes and produced one natural and one maduro. I told Alex "You will like these. Bruce, do you have any recommendations for our first-time cigar smoker here?" Bruce said "I sure do." He gathered eight more cigars with the last two being a larger ring and over seven inches long. Bruce said "how do these look to you Alex? The last two might be better for CJ as I know he likes a larger full body cigar." Alex smiled when he heard that and said "let's close this sale Bruce and thank you so much for your help." I gave a wink to Bruce and mouthed "thank you" to him. Alex paid Bruce and we were off to our next destination. We entered the ABC Store and went to the vodka section. I turned to Alex and said "what brand of vodka do you like?" He replied "I really enjoy Tito's." I pointed at the largest bottle and said "pick that up as it's on sale." Alex said "will we have enough money for the food and mixers?" I told him "Don't worry, I'll kick in if we run short." Alex smiled and said "okay you're the boss big guy." I could tell that Alex has been listening to Wally and I and he is picking up and using our speech expressions. One more stop at the deli I had visited. We got all of the food Alex wanted plus juices for the bay breeze drinks. I saw they had a make your own case of beer special for a descent price. I mixed some IPA's, amber ales, pilsners and a couple of stouts and added it to the cart. Everything added up to just about $100. Alex brought the remaining money out and I handed him three 20's which covered the bill. He seemed pleased with all the selections and said "ready to head back to the condo?" I cracked up and said "yes, let's go." I asked him "do you want to set this party up at your place?" He looked at me and said "hell no CJ. Do you mind us using your place? I want Wally to see what all we got done today." I smiled and said "sounds like a plan, and thank you for a wonderful day. I'm so pleased with what all we got done and I've enjoyed the day with you." He replied to me "me too my friend!" Alex mixed up a pitcher of drinks and set it in the refrigerator to chill. All of the platters were ready to go and we kicked back on the patio watching the tv waiting for my sexy man to join us. Wally surprised us by showing up at 4:30 pm. I looked at Alex and said "good thing we finished in plenty of time stud!" He smiled and we both went in to greet Wally. I told Wally "relax, take a shower and get changed. Our party is moved up here due to the weather." Wally smiled and said "no problem, it sounds good to me just to hang out on the patio." He turned to Alex and said "by hanging out, I'm free balling it tonight and you better be also when I return." Wally jumped in the shower and I saw Alex go into the second bedroom. I cracked up as I knew he was removing his briefs. He came back out and I said "are you a brief or boxer kind of guy". He smiled and pulled out a pair of briefs from his pocket." I smiled and said "it's so good to see you like this and I'm glad to be taking part in the corruption of Alex!" He blushed, giggled and said "let's get everything ready." He set some glasses out, got some plates and napkins ready and filled the ice bucket. Wally returned and said "okay dudes, it's the weekend. Let's enjoy and get started!" We carried the supplies out to the dining table as the coffee table was probably too small for everything. Alex and I went back in to grab the food and drinks. Alex filled our three glasses with ice, and then poured us each a drink. Wally took a sip and said "this is great, what is it, Alex?" He said "it's a bay breeze with vodka, pineapple and cranberry juices and lime garnishes." Wally said "okay this is added to our list as well." Alex just beamed and said "everyone dig in. CJ, how about we turn the television on and sit down in the tv area? Maybe your commercial will run during the local news?" I grabbed the remote, turned on the television and said "you got it Alex." We ate and the food was delicious. It all mixed well with the bay breezes and there was plenty for us to munch on as the evening continued. We emptied the pitcher of drinks and Alex asked "are you guys up for another pitcher?" I said "hell yes Alex. You've made a killer drink just like my bartender stud here does." Alex grinned and scurried into the kitchen to mix up another batch of drinks. Wally and I were on the couch. He smiled at me and said "thanks for putting up with him today." I said "it's no problem, he is really taking our advice and letting his hair down. He's even free balling for you." Wally said "no shit?" I said "yeah, give him one more drink and ask him for proof." He and I cracked up, shared a long kiss and waited for Alex to return. Alex came back out and Wally said "guys this is really nice with the television and rattan set here. I like the rug too. It's a nice setting area, and I know we'll spend a lot of time here." I spoke up and said "creations by Alex, he did all of the hard work." Alex smiled and said "it was not that hard and I'm glad when you say that we'll all be enjoying it." Wally looked at him and said "of course we will, as long as you prove to me that you're free balling right now." Alex pulled out his briefs and said "here they are." Wally looked and said "how do I know that CJ just didn't give you a pair of his to show?" Alex chuckled and pulled down his shorts. He was getting hard and said "there stud muffin, I'm free balling just like you asked me to do." We all cracked up and Wally said "Alex, I'm proud of you and I know I give you a lot of grief but it's because I like you so much." Alex grinned and said "I know, keep the grief coming you big ole bear!" I saw my welcome commercial come on and cranked the volume saying "it's on!" Wally and Alex stopped their banter and watched the commercial." They both cheered and applauded after it was over. Wally hugged me, gave me a big kiss and said "I am so proud of you my fantastic lover and handsome weatherman!" I blushed and Alex chimed in "well I wont comment on your love making skills, but that was very exciting to see you CJ. You look great, sounded great and I can hardly wait to see you live each day." He raised his glass and said "a toast to CJ. Congratulations on your extreme accomplishment, and don't forget us when you move up to the national network full time!" We all clanked glasses and I said "thank you both, but I am extremely satisfied being here in St Peterburg. I love you both and look forward to our future happy hours together." I gave Wally a big hug and kiss, and stood up to go to Alex. I gave him a kiss and big hug as well. Wally turned to Alex and said "bring it in to me Alex, I want a kiss from you as well." Alex got up and gave Wally a hug and kiss on his lips. While Alex and I were standing, I asked Wally to get up so he can see the rest of our accomplishments. I pointed out the floor mats into the sliding glass door entrances. I told him the matching area rug will be put down when the furniture arrives. I noted where I wanted the new dining table and chairs to go. We got to the chase lounge and he smiled saying "I love this in the position you have placed it." I told him that I planned to place a table and rocker on each side of it. I told him about the high-top table and four chairs I bought today. He really liked that idea and was ecstatic when I said it was going to be delivered with the other furniture on Tuesday. Alex took over then and said "this wall will have a cabinet built below with the kegerator. Above the cabinet I suggested CJ put a dartboard." Wally smiled and said "excellent idea gents. I love to play darts and this side is shaping up to be a nice little pub area. You two have got a fantastic start on this! I need to stay out of your way so that I don't crush your creative ideas!" We both smiled and gave each other a high five. Alex then blurted out with "CJ is going into business with me to open a patio designing business." We put the remaining food in the refrigerator and Alex said "I have one more surprise for us Wally." Wally said "bring it on dude." Alex brought the cigar sampler box out along with the ashtray, cutter and lighter. He handed the box to Wally and said "surprise, and I'm going to enjoy one with you tonight." Wally looked at me and I shook my head yes. He then looked at Alex and said "don't kid me on this Alex." Alex said "I'm totally serious." We gave Alex some lessons on how to cut a cigar, how to toast it initially and then finally how to rotate it in his mouth to bring it to life. He did extremely well, and gave his vanilla cigar a few puffs. He smiled and said "how do I look guys?" I said "you look good Alex, how do you like that vanilla flavored one?" He said "it's better than I thought it would be. Pretty soon, I'll be smoking the big boys with you two." We all laughed, poured ourselves another drink and sat back to enjoy our evening of drinking and cigar smoking. Wally put his arm around me and pulled me closer to him on the couch. Alex took our phones and snapped pictures of us. He said "you two look so good together and make a very handsome couple." I took several pictures of Alex that I planned to send to Ronny over the weekend. We settled in and enjoyed the remainder of Alex's Happy Hour. He did a great job for his first party event. We watched a movie on Netflix and adjourned the evening around 10:00 pm. Thank goodness Alex lived in the complex as he was drunk and high on nicotine. Hugs and kisses went around as he began his departure. He said "I'll check in with you two tomorrow to see if I can help out with anything. I said "sounds good Alex, thanks again for everything you did today." I shut the tv off on the patio. Wally grabbed my hand and lead me to the chase lounge. We curled up and began making out. About twenty minutes later he whispered to me "how about we take this inside my love? I am so horned up for you and want to make love to you." I looked at him, smiled and said "I'm so horny for you also Wally. Let's adjourn to the bedroom and close this evening with a beautiful love-making session." The evening turned to morning and we were still going at it. I felt Wally deeper in me than he had been before. I know we were both in ecstasy, and eventually we both climaxed and just held each other. I whispered to him "don't set the alarm, let's sleep in. We'll get enough exercise tomorrow moving furniture." He laughed and said "I am okay with that my love. You are so beautiful and I just want to hold you until we get up." A few minutes later we both drifted off into a deep sleep, holding each other in a peaceful bliss. My long-range forecast is definitely sunny, warm and shows indications of deep love with plenty of beautiful memories ahead.
