Date: Mon, 13 Oct 2003 15:19:43 GMT From: CHR Subject: Nick and Jonathan: The New Life part 9 Hi all, Sorry for the delay(and yes that goes for the 50 or so of you who wrote me wanting to know if the guys fell off the planet). It has been an annoying time in my life back in Boston(which is good) with finding a job and switching roommates and apartments(which is bad but is OK now) . All settled down now and back to writing. Thanks for the patience. Keep the comments coming.. How about some ideas of what you want the guys to do next... Jon backbayguy@juno.com Chapter One: "What do you mean we have to be in two places at once?" asked Nick. "Is that some immortal trick?" "Well.. technically not at once" said Jonathan. "We have a couple of options. I need to be in Las Vegas for a meeting at the casino, and less then 24 hours after that, you need to be in Zermatt for the reception at the hotel there. It's just one of those bad timing things." "Why do I have to be in Zermatt?" asked Nick. He wasn't in a good mood at the moment. Immortal or not, he could and had caught the flu. Between the sneezing, which was driving both him and Sebastian, who was trying to be a 41 pound cuddle cat, nuts; the fever wasn't helping his mood. "Because you own the hotel." said Jonathan, coming over to the bed and handing Nick another dose of Nyquil. "Here ya go babe" "I thought being immortal meant no more of this shit" said Nick as he drank down the Nyquil. "No, it just means you can't die from it" said Jonathan with a smile. "Besides you'll get over it quicker too" "Joyous" said Nick, sneezing again barely grabbing the Kleenex box in time, and sending Sebastian scampering off the bed grumbling about humans. "Love you too cat." said Nick, blowing his nose. "So, does that mean that I'm taking one jet going one way and you are taking another jet and going the other way?" "Hell no" said Jonathan, kissing Nick on his forehead. "Look how much trouble you got into the last time I let you hang out by yourself. You disappeared for a year and caused all sorts of ruckus" Nick sort of smiled at the one dark time in their lives. There were nights he still woke up in the middle of the night and just watched Jonathan sleeping; almost unable to believe how lucky he was to not once but twice have Jonathan enter his life. "So, what did you have in mind?" asked Nick, snuggling under the covers. "Poor baby" said Jonathan, pushing back a lock of hair off of Nick's forehead. Nick had let his hair start to grow a bit and now it was about half way back to the way it was that day Jonathan had found him in Hawaii. He did keep it trimmed and styled and neat though. "You aren't feeling well at all are you?" "I'll live" said Nick, with a half smile. "Answer the question before I fall asleep from this shit" "We'll head out together for both things." Said Jonathan, "After the meetings we will fly over to Switzerland together, do the reception and then I was thinking of going up to Amsterdam for a few days" "Sin City to Sodom and Gomorrah" said Nick. "Get some sleep babe" said Jonathan with a laugh. "Your fever is getting the better of you" "Good idea" said Nick sleepily. "Love ya man" "Love you too babe" said Jonathan as he got up from the bed. He paused long enough to pick up Sebastian and walked out of the bedroom after turning off the lights. Jonathan walked out to the living room portion of their residence suite at the resort in St. Thomas. Sebastian had assumed his usual place around Jonathan's neck and was nuzzling his ear. "Easy with the tongue there cat" said Jonathan. "You humans" came the reply in his head. "So fragile. From the flu to not being able to take a little bit of licking" "Hrm" said Jonathan. "Keep in mind it is we humans who feed you and change your litter box" "Minor details in the grand scheme of things" said Sebastian with a particularly hard lick on Jonathan's ear. "Hey" grumbled Jonathan. A moment later Sebastian found himself transported across the suite to be deposited on top of the bar. He had his ears flat back and was growling. "Told ya not so hard fur ball" said Jonathan with a smile. "You forget I could have just as easily dropped you in the pool" The response was catlike and not at all polite. Jonathan settled down at his desk and began to go over some paperwork Brandon had dropped off earlier in the day. He looked up to see Sebastian starting to come over his way. Remembering other times, he picked up the excess paperwork and deposited it in a drawer. "Nice try" he said to the cat. He was rewarded with a flick of the tail as Sebastian slunk out of site. Anthony chose that moment to come in from the patio. "What's with the cat?" he asked. "Games" said Jonathan. "What's up?" "Just checking to see what you wanted to do about lunch." He replied. "I gather Nick isn't up for food" "Yeah, one of the rare times" said Jonathan as he signed off on three contracts. He looked up. "Just looks like you and me around here for lunch. Where is everyone?" "Karen is out shopping" said Anthony as he deposited a Bloody Mary on Jonathan's desk. "Brandon and Mark are out doing something on the resort; something about a meeting or other, and security is being its usual self" "OK, what do we have around for lunch?" he asked. This garnered him an odd look. "What kind of comment is that? If I don't have it I'll go steal it from the resort kitchen." "How stupid of me" said Jonathan with mock severity. "Crab Salad and a plate of fruit" "OK" said Anthony. "Ten minutes outside" "Thanks" said Jonathan as he went back to looking over his itinerary for the next couple of days. It was Monday and they had to be in Vegas on Wednesday, then Zermatt on Thursday night. It would involve some tricky timing, but it could be done. He picked up the phone and hit the speed dial for Brandon. "You rang?" said the voice on the other end of the phone. "Cute." said Jonathan. "Is Don back on the island yet?" The Captain had taken a couple of days off with his wife and had gone to Miami. "Yes, they got back early this morning." said Brandon. "He checked in with me a little while ago and picked up the itinerary. He should be on the resort. He has his phone; but I believe that he is staying in the North Tower." "OK thanks" said Jonathan. "How are we doing on the trip?" There was an odd sound of pain in the background. "Where are you?" asked Jonathan. "Out on the tennis courts." Said Brandon. "Mark just got hit in the head with a tennis ball. He wasn't paying attention" "Nice to see you guys are keeping out of trouble this afternoon" said Jonathan smiling. He knew he didn't have to worry about the two of them. Not once in seven years had Brandon ever messed up a schedule, nor needed one for his work. "He'll live" said Brandon. "To answer your question, the hotels are expecting us, Don has the schedule and is working on it, and we are pretty much all set." "OK thanks, I'll give him a call and see if there are any problems on his end" said Jonathan breaking the connection. Out of the corner of his eye he saw Sebastian sneaking about the place. A flash of his mind and the cat appeared in his lap. "Hi there, what are you up to?" "Me? I'm off to the litter box if you would stop popping me all over the place." Came the reply along with a couple of paws kneading his chest. "There ya go" said Jonathan putting down the cat and getting up to head off to lunch. "No man nor cat waits for Mother Nature" CHAPTER TWO: After lunch, Jonathan looked in on Nick, to find him sleeping soundly. He looked like he was breathing easier too. Jonathan remembered earlier in the year when he had gotten the flu. Thanks to the chemistry changes in his system brought on by his immortality it took only two days to get the flu out of his system. He was sure that Nick was well on his way. He quietly left the bedroom and walked back out to the patio. He pulled his cell phone out of his pocket and hit speed dial for Captain Hendrickson. "Good Afternoon Jon" came the voice at the other end. "Good Afternoon Don" said Jonathan. "How was Miami?" "Hot and humid but good" said the Captain. "The wife did all the shopping and I lounged out at the pool all day. Thanks again for letting us borrow the Gulfstream." "Sounds like a nice couple of days" said Jon, reaching for his schedule. "You know what's up coming towards the end of the week?" "I was just looking at it" said the Captain. "No real problems on my end. We'll be flying into Geneva instead of Zurich. It is closer to Zermatt then Zurich. I haven't done the final timing of it yet, but we can do it. You'll probably have to use a helicopter from the casino to the airport. It will save about half an hour or so. I'll make sure that the Swiss National Airline can do the maintenance on her." "OK" said Jonathan. "Can you coordinate everything with Brandon?" "No problem Jon" said Don. "What aircraft do you want to use? Renaissance One or Two?" "Well now, haven't had to ask that before have you?" asked Jonathan with a smile. "Can't say as I have" said the Captain. "I'm almost afraid to see if you're gonna get something else." "I don't think so" said Jon with a laugh. "Ian isn't happy as it is with almost 750 million dollars in aircraft in ownership." "Understandable" said the Captain, also with a laugh. "Let's use Renaissance Two." Said Jon, reflecting after a moment. "Might make Las Vegas control a little happier. We can get to Geneva from there right?" "Not a problem at all." Said Captain Hendrickson. "More then enough fuel." "Great" said Jonathan. "Then I'll see you in a few days" "Talk to you then Boss" said the Captain. The rest of Jonathan's day was spent finishing off the paperwork that Brandon had given him. Towards mid afternoon, Brandon came in and collected the paperwork along with dropping off more reports. "You give me more paperwork and crap when we are away from the office then you do when I'm in the office. What's up with that?" he asked. "Simple" said Brandon. "You don't have secretaries here" "Remind me to fix that" said Jonathan with a smile. "We're good to go for Wednesday." Said Brandon. "Don sent me the flight times and such. It's going to be a bit tight. We need to be airborne no later then 800am Wednesday morning. It is going to be about a seven and a half hour flight; which with the time changes will put us on the ground in Las Vegas at 1130 their time. Your meeting is over lunch at noon. It will be held in one of the meeting rooms; not the suite. We won't be there long enough really to use the private suite unless you want it changed." "Yeah that is a bit tight" said Jonathan, calculating time zones in his head. "As to the meeting room, that's fine. We probably won't even had time to drop a hand or two of blackjack. What about the next leg?" "We should be out of Vegas by 4pm their time." Said Brandon. "Flight time to Geneva is 11 hours. That puts us on the ground in Geneva at approximately noon. We should be in Zermatt by 5pm if we hustle. Nick's reception is at 7pm their time." "OK" said Jonathan. "We're flying Renaissance Two. We all set for that?" "We will be" said Brandon. "Mark is overseeing pre trip setup now." "Sounds good thanks" said Jonathan. "Who's coming with us?" "You two obviously" said Brandon with a smirk. "Me, Mark, Karen and Anthony, Sebastian, and the usual suspects from security. Paul is away at a seminar on physical training." "Full House" said Jonathan. "Yup" said Brandon. "You need anything else?" "No I don't think so" said Jonathan. "OK. Call if you do, I have a bunch of things to do before flight time. Have you decided on how long we are staying in Zermatt or where we are going from there?" "I was thinking about Amsterdam" said Jonathan. "But we might just end up in Boston. Haven't been in town in a while" "OK, let me know when you decide" said Brandon. CHAPTER THREE Jonathan looked in on Nick at sunset. He was surprised to see him awake and getting dressed. "How are you feeling babe" he asked as he came up to Nick and kissed the back of his neck. "Outside of some small body aches from sleeping so much, I feel great" said Nick, turning to return the kiss. "You were right about tossing it off so fast" "Good to see you feeling better babe" said Jonathan. "Don't overdo the first night though. Trust me. It looks like you'll be back to normal by tomorrow. You hungry?" "Yeah but it isn't on the menu" said Nick, starting to take off his jeans. "Easy killer" said Jonathan, although he liked what he saw. "You haven't really eaten in 24 hours. How about some food" "OK, if I have to" said Nick. "Yeah, right" said Jonathan zipping Nick's jeans back up. "Like I have to force feed you" After a brief duel about sex or food, the two left the suite, with Danny and his crew in tow. "You want to eat here?" asked Jonathan as they were going up in the elevator. "Sure" said Nick. "It's closer. You may have been right about taking it easy" "Told ya" said Jonathan giving him a quick kiss as the elevator opened and Danny got out to look around. "Immortal or not, you need food for energy" "Yeah tis true" said Nick. They walked through the main reception and lounge areas and approached the main dining salon. They were escorted to Jonathan's private table on the verandah. Danny, Jeff and the other two were spaced out around the verandah. Nick turned out to be hungrier then he thought working his way though a good chunk of the menu. "You know" said Jonathan as they were finishing their after dinner coffee. "Anthony and Karen could have cooked down in the suite and you could have stayed naked. More room for your stomach to expand so you could work on a few more things" "Smart ass" came the reply. "I haven't eaten in 24 hours. I gotta replace what I didn't get and what I'm going to work off later" "Oh? You think there's gonna be a later to work off after eating like that?" said Jonathan with a smile. "Yeah I do" said Nick, his foot running along Jonathan's leg under the table. "You really think you can say no to my ass?" "This is true" said Jonathan finishing the last of his coffee. "Let's go find out" CHAPTER FOUR: Tuesday morning Nick woke up and found that he was feeling 100 percent. He had wanted to have sex the previous night, but by time time he crawled into bed next to Jonathan he was asleep before he could even reach over to touch him. As Nick watched Jonathan sleep, he found himself thinking yet again of how lucky he was. Twice Jonathan had entered his life and made it more complete then he could even realize. No one could be luckier then I am he thought. His hands trailed lightly over Jonathan's body. Slowly they made their way down towards Jonathan's soft cock. Stroking it slowly it started to rise. As it reached full hardness, Nick slipped under the covers and took the shaft into his mouth. Beginning a slow motion up and down he could feel Jonathan start to come awake. Jonathan's hands came up off the mattress to take Nick's head on either side. He took one hand off and moved the covers off the bed to watch Nick as he sucked on the hard shaft. For minutes the only sound was the moans of Jonathan and the slurping made my Nick. With a low growl Jonathan began bucking and shot a load deep down Nick's throat. As his orgasm subsided he pulled Nick up to him. "You're better then any alarm clock I could imagine" he said kissing him. "I gather you enjoyed that" said Nick. "I'll show you how much" said Jonathan, kissing him again before rolling him over and laying Nick on his back. Jonathan lay a trail of kisses from Nick's lips to his neck before trailing down over the hard chest and abs to the swollen cock that lay before him. Instead of taking it into his mouth, he began to slowly stroke it as he worked the hairy nut sack with his mouth. Nick began to moan with the sensations surging through his cock. Jonathan continued lower as he kept stroking the cock. His tongue began to flick over the sensitive asshole. This caused Nick to buck his body and begin to thrash about. Jonathan continued to probe the ass hole, punching thru the ass ring with his tongue as he could feel Nick's cock become very wet with precum. Nick was now groan and bucking his hips hard in response to Jonathan's stroking. Finally with a yell, Nick began to shoot his load all over himself. Jonathan came up and took the still shooting cock into his mouth, gathering the last of the load. He came up to kiss Nick who was still breathing heavily allowing the cum to trickle into his mouth. The two continued to kiss as Jonathan opened his mind to the universe. In a flash the two found themselves floating across the universe the stars back lighting their love. Rolling over and over in the fabric of some lost universe their energies intertwined. Both grew hard again. Nick opened his eyes to see unbelievable and virtually incomprehensible sights. He felt Jonathan enter him effortlessly and painlessly. He thrust back to meet Jonathan's deep thrusts into him. As the two kissed, energy flowed from them, around them and between them. Nick could not believe his world was this good. He back arched, he looked upside down to see a comet of unbelievable beauty and size silently pass them. He felt Jonathan unloading into him as his own cock, untouched, began to shoot with an orgasm of unending power. Light and energy primordial surrounded them as the pleasure swept them away. Nick opened his eyes to find himself lying in bed, with Jonathan slowly pulling out of him. "My God" said Nick between gasps. "Where the fuck did you take us? "Just a fast trip around the universe" said Jonathan, gently caressing one of Nick's nipples with his lips. "Sure as hell beats a trip around the world" said Nick, pulling Jonathan to him and kissing him. Holding each other the two drifted off into a gentle sleep. After the two woke up later on that day, Tuesday was spent in leisurely pursuit around the island. Accompanied by a minimal set of security agents, Nick and Jonathan toured the island. After lunch in Charlotte Amalie, they took a speed boat over to St. John for the afternoon. Finding a sheltered cove, the two made love once more in the breaking surf as security wandered discreetly about in the other direction. Finally returning to the resort at sunset, they were rewarded with a magnificent sunset over the mountains surrounding the resort. "Have I told you I love you today?" asked Nick. "A few times but it's always nice to know" said Jonathan kissing him. "You remember the moment when I crossed over in the Greek mountains?" asked Nick. "Yeah I do" said Jonathan. Despite giving Nick his immortality, Jonathan still secretly was in pain for all of the agony that he had caused Nick to get him there. "When you were looking at me that morning you were the first sight I saw coming back from Death" said Nick. "I could feel my body expanding and growing. It was an incredible feeling. I could actually feel my muscles growing and tightening. But to see you standing over me, and the way your faced changed emotions was the most special thing I have ever seen" "I don't know what to say babe" said Jonathan. "I can't describe what I felt seeing you alive" Nick kissed him softly. "Then don't. Just hold me" The two walked hand in hand back to their suite. After a quick shower the two went upstairs to the main dining salon where they were escorted to Jonathan's private table. Dinner was a leisurely affair with neither man in any real mood to talk or rush; both content in each others' presence. As they were finishing dessert, Brandon came over to the table. "What's up?" asked Jonathan. "There is a fairly bad storm front moving in off the Leeward Islands according to Captain Hendrickson. "It might cause some problems taking off tomorrow. He wanted to know if we could fly out tonight since we are on such a tight timetable. Renaissance Two is being prepped now and we can be airborne in about an hour and a half." Jonathan looked over at Nick who just shrugged. "Gonna piss off the stewards, but then again their isn't a whole lot to pack. There are wardrobes on board. Go ahead and give them the OK. Danny know about it?" "Yeah, the security crew is already at the plane" said Brandon. "Danny, and Jeff are waiting outside the restaurant now" "I'm surprised he lets us sit out here unattended" said Nick with a smirk. "There's two of them over at that table" said Brandon pointing. "Nice try kiddo" said Jonathan with a smile. "What time to we need to leave?" "Anytime you want." Said Brandon. "Karen and Anthony have already left for the plane. Mark is enroute and Sebastian is waiting most impatiently in the limo." Jonathan's mind flashed to the limo to `see' Sebastian curled up on one of the seats sound asleep. "He's fine" Jonathan looked over at Nick who was finishing his coffee. "Tell them we'll be out front in about 10 minutes." "OK boss" said Brandon. "See you on board" After a few more minutes of peace and quiet, Jonathan looked over at Nick who was staring out at the harbor. "Ready kiddo?" "Yup yup" said Nick. "Once more into the great blue yonder" "Smartass" said Jonathan. CHAPTER FIVE: The two chatted aimlessly on the way to the airport. Getting out the limo, security thought it was incredibly funny to see Sebastian hop out of the limo on his own before anyone could grab him and trot himself up the jet stairs and enter the jet. "I wonder if I should tell Danny that Sebastian pretty much flipped him off with his tail" said Jonathan. "Probably not" said Nick laughing. The two walked up and into the jet surrounded by the security staff who disappeared once they were inside. Nick and Jonathan walked into the center section of the jet and sat down. Even owning the jet for about a year now, they were still pleasantly surprised looking at their surroundings. The jet had been designed to recreate the lounge car from the Orient Express., Many chairs and couches were scattered about the cabin, full ceiling to floor panels of Lalique crystal faithfully recreated to exacting specifications were about as well. Anthony had been behind the bar, but came around with a silver tray holding two snifters of 150 year old Grand Marnier. "Anything else you need?" he inquired. "Nope that should about do it thank you" said Jonathan. "Bed sounds like a good option at this point. What time do we touch down in Las Vegas?" "We should be airborne in the next half hour" said Anthony. That will be around 10pm here, 6pm there. We should land about 1:30am their time. "Just enough time for some black jack" said Jonathan. "Says who" asked Nick. "You have something else in mind?" asked Jonathan. "Sleep is good" said Nick with a yawn. "We'll see" said Jonathan. He turned back to Anthony. "Thanks" "Call if you need anything" he said leaving them alone. Shortly thereafter they could feel the jet start to move and Captain Hendrickson came across the speakers. "Good Evening from the flight deck. We are #2 for departure, we should be airborne in about 7 minutes." "Thanks Don" said Jonathan. Holding hands and sipping the Grand Marnier, the two watched in silence as the jet continued on out to the runway. After a brief halt the jet released it breaks and roared down the runway. "Bedtime babe?" Nick asked Jonathan. "You referring to sleeping or something else?" asked Jonathan as he trailed his hand up Nick's leg and under his shorts. "What the Hell do you think?" he replied with a smile.
