Ask Me

Ask Me 63

I rang Diana when I got in and she gave me the date for the royal gala so I checked it against the school calendar and all's good, we could go for two weeks. I told Con it was a yes for us and then I checked with the boys who said they would ask the parents. It was Conner and Grant that had to go around to Shane's parents place to convince them everything would be good; we will have plenty of security with us so they would be safe.

I think they just wanted to meet him but they said okay and said they would get him a passport. With everything that was happening with Ted I had put aside the talk I was going to have with them, they enjoyed themselves though and I noticed Tom had his gold bracelet on all the time, so I think things are good.

Con was at the studio all day so I caught up with the washing. A phone call from Marty got my antennas up, he wanted to call in and talk to me about something.

That little something was some concerts while we were in London. I said I would talk to Con about it, I really wanted him to enjoy his time there this time and I had a plan already forming in my head. Maybe he could stay longer and do the concerts while we flew home commercial, and if that's the case Adam would have to come with us and maybe Rob, Adam could do his hostie thing as well as his concert thing.

When Con arrived home around two he flopped on the couch and I gave him a coffee and sandwich. He started doing some throat exercises and Benny ran out the back while I headed for the clothesline. He sounded good but a little too loud for me. I folded the clothes and put them away then it was time to go to the park. He scooted up to the bedroom and changed into his shorts and tank and I nearly fucked him on the spot but we were running late so I kissed him instead then grabbed the car keys.

While waiting for our budding football star to go through his paces we went for a run.

"I had a visit from Marty today Con."

"Oh what did he want?"

"As if you didn't know, concerts in London ring any bells?"

"No baby he hasn't mentioned it but it does make sense while I'm there."

"Yes it does, we are going to have a family holiday with the boys then you can stay and do the concerts while we fly back commercial, does that sound okay?" I smirked.

"Sounds okay to me baby but you take the jet and we can fly back commercial."

"No I won't hear of it Con, you will be buggered by that time so you need to sleep undisturbed, and the kids will enjoy the ride in a bigger plane, first class of course." I smiled.

"First class hey?"

"Yes Con because you will be paying for it, we can't expect the kids to cough up any money."

I looked sideways and he was having a laugh.

"Well you have plenty of money, you can shout."

"Not really Con, I don't know how to make withdrawals, only deposits."

"Oh deposits hey, want to hide in the bushes for awhile?"

"No Con the bushes are gone but I will hide in your bush tonight, thank you for the offer." I smirked.

"Groan."

Of course he knew about the concerts, they were getting very brave trying to fool me.

My day started like any other, Ted was in front of the TV and Con was still asleep then the phone rang.

"Brent just a heads up, your father is sitting outside your place, he's just sitting in the car and we have an eye on him so maybe get Ray to leave with Ted from next door." It was Grant on the phone.

"Can we call the police?"

"No Brent, not necessary yet, he's not doing anything illegal just sitting there."

"Okay leave it to me." I was pissed off why the fuck is he here; I thought we had seen the last of him. I went to the bedroom and put some jeans and a light sweater on then said to a now awake Con,

"Be back in a minute."

"Brent what's up?" he called after me but I was too quick. I walked out towards dad's car and he saw me coming. He nearly ran me over in his hurry to get away and I fell heavily to the ground as Grant and Pete ran up the road. Grant stood me up and checked me out just as Con came rushing out the front door.

"Brent, are you hurt?"

"No Con I'm okay just a little shaken that's all.'

"We had better renew that restraining order as soon as possible Grant, he was here for a reason and not a good one," I said as Pete smiled and walked back to the van. I spied Ted at the door.

"It's okay Teddy, I just had a fall, no problem."

Ray and John appeared and we all went inside. I picked Ted up and hugged him but he really didn't see anything happen so I told him to get ready for school and John would help him. Con had me sit down while he made coffee.

"This is getting interesting Brent, we check up on him occasionally and last I heard he had left his job but was looking for a new one."

"Well he had better not start in on us, that's all I can say. Grant I want you to go to the school today and make sure he's not hanging around the grounds." Con was very concerned.

"It's okay boss I have it in hand, later on I will make a visit to his place and see what he's up to."

"No Grant, I don't think that's necessary." I didn't either at the time.

"Sorry boss can't hear you." He smiled and started out the door. My phone rang.

"What do you want?"

"Just wanted to see you that's all," dad said.

"Well you did and you nearly ran me over in the process."

"Sorry son I wasn't thinking. Son can we have a coffee one day soon, I need to talk to you?"

"No we fucking cant." I hung up.

"What did he want Brent?" Conner was concerned again.

"To have coffee with me, how the fuck did he get my number?"

"I don't know baby but we will have it changed. I'll ring Grant later."

"Thanks Con. Maybe I should have met him for coffee even if it's to just find out what he wants." Con stared at me, he really didn't know what to say so he said,

"You look so sexy in that sweater baby."

"Con, let's wait at least until Ted leaves for school." I chuckled.

He came running out in his shorts and shirt, with John trailing behind he had washing in his arms. I stopped him and pulled him onto my lap then started kissing his neck, Ted not John, he giggled then wiggled himself to the floor and back over to the TV.

"Maybe he's after money Brent, from what you have told me your mum almost cleaned him out and he has lost his job, do you think Jenny would know?"

"I doubt it John but I will ring her later."

"Okay captain come on let's go," John shouted, Ted jumped. He turned the TV off and hugged us both then ran for the front door with John tailing him.

As soon as the door closed Con was onto me. He had my jeans down in a split second and his hands were all over my ass. I did the same and we ended up on the sofa doing a very sloppy sixty-nine. There's no doubt about it, Con always knows when to distract me, he's so fucking good at it.

Later I put the washing on then rang Jenny. She had no idea but she will ring mum and find out for me. We spoke for an hour until Con had started to slap me on the face with his cock, which was a bit chubby again by now. I stroked him while I talked to my sister occasionally giving it a lick. By the time I hung up he had me stripped again and was leading me to the bedroom. The bed rocked and as Con did his thing I looked into his eyes and played with his hair and maybe moaned a bit but we got him there, he rolled off then went to sleep. I gather he's got nothing on today.

When Grant phoned later I didn't know what to say, I felt numb all over. I quickly looked at Con and he knew instantly something was wrong.

"Brent did you hear me?"

"I, I, what did you say?"

"Brent, Ted's gone missing from school. I have the guys onto it but it looks like he went to the toilet and never came out. I have Sam and Pete going to your father's place and the cops have been called in." I looked blankly at Con then the phone slipped through my fingers and dropped to the floor.

"Someone's taken Teddy," was all I got out. Con took the phone and he screamed at Grant. I didn't think he even took a breath when he moved to the kitchen bench to grab the car keys. I followed him up the hallway and Con was so pissed off, he slammed the car into gear and planted his foot as he threw my phone onto my lap.

"By god Brent if your father's got him I will kill the son of a bitch, how fucking dare he lay one finger on our son." I didn't know what to say as I looked out the window at the passing sidewalk. A little boy was running towards the car and as we passed I screamed,

"Stop!"

"What?"

"Con it's Teddy, stop the car." I jumped out while the car was still moving and he was running down the street at full speed, heading towards home.

"Teddy, Teddy," I shouted.

He kept running so I took after him followed by a very agitated Con, who shouted,

"Its dad Teddy, stop and wait for us." Ted looked over his shoulder and stopped. He looked so fucking upset and ran back and flew into my arms at full speed then started sobbing. He shook so hard I didn't know what to do with him except hold him tight.

"Your safe baby, safe with your dads calm down Ted, please try." My tears were flowing down my face.

Con had caught up and held us both in his strong arms.

"Brent we better get him to a doctor."

"Okay." We returned to the car and got a very upset boy in the back, Con slipped in with him and he held Con like a vice.

"I want to go home," I heard Ted say.

"We have to get you checked out Ted."

"No I want to go home, take me home." I looked at Con in the rear vision mirror and did a U-turn and headed for home. I kept looking at them as we turned into our street and parked. Ted was out of the car within seconds he had to climb over Con to get out, he headed for the front door with his face pressed up against it, he was still shaking and crying. Con opened it and Ted shot down the hallway and out the back door. We couldn't find him by the time we caught up; he was nowhere to be seen.

"Con check next door." Then I heard his sobs; he was in Benny's kennel wrapped under his dog blanket so I moved to pull him out.

"No! No! Leave me alone, go away, go away."

I sat down on the garden seat and Con tried to coax him out but he wasn't budging. Grant came in and was stunned by the terror in Teds voice he didn't know what to say.

"What the fuck happened?" Con said in a very low tone, he was on the verge of murdering someone.

"We don't know Conner, he asked to go to the toilet in class and didn't come back, no one saw him leave the grounds and no one saw what happened. One of the kids thought they heard someone yelling stranger danger but we just don't know, I have to talk to Teddy." I could see Grant was really angry by all this he had failed us.

"He's too upset to talk." Con's tears had stopped but he was fighting another onslaught of them.

"Con, Grant can you both go inside for just a minute, just for a little while please." I wanted to see if I could coax him out and the argument I could see looming wouldn't help.

They left and closed the door behind them and I could hear shouting then they must have moved it up the hallway.

"Teddy it's dad, come out and talk to me will you?"

"No go away, I can't tell you."

"Oh Ted, I love you so much and just want to hold you in my arms where I will keep you safe, come on baby, I miss you."

He shuffled around and screamed at me,

"He's going to kill you if I tell, so go away." I was thrown into momentary shock and I didn't know what to say except,

"Who is going to kill me Ted?"

"That man, that man that tried to take me, he said if I didn't go with him he would kill you."

"Well he hasn't Ted and he won't get the chance to kill me because dad's going to have him put in jail."

"Go away, if I don't tell you he won't kill you." A small kids reasoning but certainly not mine.

"He's not going to kill me Teddy so come here and let me hug you baby, come on." He shuffled again and a red face appeared but I could see he was trying his hardest to stay put. I held my arms out and within seconds a very weepy and upset boy was being held tight in them, I was rocking him from side to side.

"That's better baby, everything's all right, your safe with dad and me," I tried to reassure him.

"He said he would kill you, he said I had to go with him."

"You ran away, you did good baby, he's not going to hurt you or me, daddy Con is going to see that he's put in jail so he can't come near us anymore." I continued rocking him back and forth and began humming one of Con's songs to him. His shaking abated a little as my tears dripped onto his hair.

Con came out and sat with us and started singing a little song to him while he stroked his head, Teddy went slack he was fast asleep totally exhausted. I moved to put him into bed because I wanted to talk to Grant myself. Con stayed with Ted while I spoke to him and I told him what Ted had said and he looked lost for words. I know how he was feeling, with all that security how could this slip through so easily?

"He threatened to kill me if Ted didn't go with him but Ted got free and ran home to see if I was okay. He said he was sorry he should have gone back to get the teacher but he was more frightened for me, so blame me for him leaving school if you must. He was scared shitless Grant, what did the police say?"

"They want to talk to him tomorrow and in the meantime they will arrest your father, they have him on the school CCTV. Brent I don't want you or Conner to watch it, he roughed up Ted a fair bit."

"Well I checked and there's no cuts but he may have bruising later."

"That kid of yours can fight you know, your father should have a couple of very sore ankles and shins. I don't think he expected Ted to fight back and when he started screaming he let go of him so Ted ran."

"Move the boys outside Ted's classroom and I want them to follow him everywhere, even if he goes for a piss, this is never going to happen again, you hear me Grant?" Con had appeared and was still totally pissed off. Grant nodded his acceptance but I don't think that would be necessary now that dad's in custody.

"I have to go to the cops and tell them what you told me Brent, I won't be long." Grant left, he just didn't know what to say to either of us.

I made coffee I wanted to talk to Con. I wanted to tell him that I loved him and was sorry I took the lead. We heard screaming coming from Ted's bedroom so Con rushed up to hold him. A nightmare had woken him and he screamed at the top of his lungs and when he saw me he threw himself at me. I lay on the bed with them both and the bed was soaked through, he had wet himself again. A call to Mary would be my next move but for now a few kisses and hugs with our boy, and plenty of reassurances.

We eventually managed to get him in the bathtub, I got in then Con followed, we gently washed him as he leant up against me and his eyes were on me all the time. He finally calmed down and Con tried to take him but he clung to me like glue. I am going to kill that cunt for making my boy feel like this.

"I'm sorry Con, let him come down to earth a little more, he's only clinging onto me because he thinks something bad is going to happen," I whispered. Con smiled then sung a song and Ted slumped, letting it all go as he started crying into his hands. He was coming down from a very big fright.

"He said he was going to kill you dad." I smiled.

"He can't kill me baby, I'm strong and dad Con would beat him up before he got the chance to get near me."

"But he said he would," that small voice again.

"He won't Teddy, he won't because now you have told me so I can do something about it. Thank you for telling me baby, did he say anything else?"

"He said he wanted money and I should go with him, he scared me dad, he scared me a lot. I had to come home to see if you were okay, I was so scared just like at the shops." He was whispering now like he didn't want anyone to hear.

"What shops baby?"

"The shops where I was sick that day, he was there and you talked to him, I don't like him daddy."

"Con can you hold our son while I dry him, he's starting to get wrinkly." I smiled again and kissed my man and my boy. He let Con hold him but his eyes were on me as I towelled him dry. When we got him into clean jamas he sat in front of the TV and cuddled up with John and Ray who were giving him more hugs and kisses. I took Con up to Teds room and we started to change his bed, I heard Con take a deep gulp so I held him in my arms while he sobbed his heart out; he's also had a big fright and he's been so strong. I wanted to hold him earlier but our boy comes first.

"What the fuck are we going to do Brent?"

"I don't know Con, we can't protect him all the time, he has to have a life at school, we could home school him but he won't see his friends anymore. I do know that this won't happen again even if Pete or Grant sit in the classroom with him, it won't ever happen again." I was now getting a little pissed off, maybe that's a good thing.

I played with his hair and kissed his lips as he finally settled, I don't know what the next move would be but we had to get back to as normal as possible for all our sakes.

It was Conner that took the lead, he helped me finish up the bed and we went to have coffee, there will be no footy practice today. He rang Grant to make sure he doesn't let the other kids down and he told Con that dad was in custody and had admitted to trying to take Ted. He was stone cold broke and needed money but he said he wasn't going to hurt him. But he did hurt him, more than he knew and by god he will pay.

"I'll go and start dinner Brent, it won't be long and I have put a wash on too." John hugged me as I slapped Con's wrist because he was taking his fourth biscuit. I wondered how long it was going to take him before he got too fat to fit into his tight leather pants.

"No more." I looked him in the eyes. He pouted and dropped his head then moved up to the bedroom, after three minutes he came out in them.

"See they still fit." He had read my mind and they did fit, yet how the hell could I be thinking I wanted to fuck him on the floor when our boy is so upset.

He giggled, Ray was playing horses with him, well maybe not so upset now, the worst is over but I will still get Mary over and I will still fuck Con before he goes to sleep. He was being a bugger because he straddled my knees and started rubbing his gorgeous chest on mine.

"You are so going to get it tonight Con."

"Oh I thought it was my turn."

"No you owe me a couple." I grinned.

"Okay then, can you suck me too?"

"No because you will cum straight away and then won't feel like sex."

"Damn I thought I was being clever."

"You are baby you are but you are still going to get it," I kissed him again.

I heard more giggles when Jen and Bob arrived with little Conner. John had called them as he thought we might like the distraction. Little Con was into everything, he emptied my pot cupboard and was banging the lids together... well Con was showing him how.

I filled them in quietly and John arrived with his famous pasta bake.

"Do you want us to stay the night Brent?" Jen asked.

"No it's okay sis, thanks for coming over though, things are starting to settle down again, it was just a big fright that's all."

She held my hands and kissed each one then she leant sideways and kissed Con.

"He's a prick and I will call mum and give her a piece of my mind tomorrow, she shouldn't have taken him to the cleaners like she did."

"Well I hope both of them get what they deserve Jen, I don't feel any sympathy for them at all." I was being honest.

Conner had lifted little Con onto his lap and was humming a nursery rhyme to him, Ted had crawled onto mine and hung on tight.

"How's the business Bob?" Con was making small talk.

"Good Conner, I hear on the grapevine your off to London."

"Yes for the Queens jubilee concert, Marty has me slotted in to do three concerts while I'm there, do you want to come with us?"

"No thank you but maybe in a couple of years time." He smiled at Jen.

"What's up?" I asked.

"Nothing just I want Conner to be a little older before we travel and I have something to talk to Ray about." Bob smiled.

"What?" Ray asked.

"We can talk at work but I will ask you, how do you feel about container ships?"

"What?" Ray shouted and little Con jumped, oh and me.

We didn't get a rundown but knowing Bob it's a done deal, I wondered how many ships we would own, oh sailing the seven seas would be nice.

"Ted, Bubby's on the phone for you." I handed the phone to our boy and he jumped down from my knees and went up to his bedroom where he spoke to Sean and Bubby at length. I could hear giggling coming down the hallway then I had to say goodbye to the family and promised we would come over soon, without toys. I looked sideways at Con who had his naughty boy face on again.

We got Ted into bed and Con read him a story, he was exhausted and went to sleep almost before it ended. I took my Con into the bedroom and slowly stripped him down to his basic rock star nude.

After a lot of rubbing, kissing and licking I had him where I needed him, all ready to go.

He grunted, groaned and sighed as I made my moves on him, and he was fantastic.

I woke during the night with a start and something must have woken me, I listened but nothing so I thought while I was awake anyway I had better check on Ted, I put my lamp on and saw him. He was sitting by the door with his eyes wide open, he had tears running down his cheeks and his big eyes were watching me.

"Teddy, come here honey, jump in with us," I whispered.

That woke Con up and he lifted himself on his elbows.

"I can't dad, I have to make sure you're safe from being killed." Con sighed then got out of bed and moved over to pick Ted up to put him in with us.

"No dad I have to stay here." Ted was very agitated.

"Teddy I just want to show you something that's all, look here." Con pointed under the bed.

He stood up and walked over to see what Con had in his hand, a cricket bat.

"Nobody will kill anyone baby, I have this big old cricket bat by our bed and if anyone tries to hurt anyone I will take it out and bop them on the head, okay?"

"But daddy, what if they kill you too?"

"They won't baby because I'm very big and strong so why don't you hop in with us and I will see that you get a good nights sleep. Don't worry about dad, I will be wide awake watching you both."

"Okays."

I didn't know whether Ted was awake or sleepwalking but when he got into bed he snuggled up to me and Con snuggled up to him...I couldn't help it I had to whisper.

"I'm big and very strong too Con." I heard Con toss and turn for quite awhile.

Ted was already up and Benny had been fed by the time I caught up with him, he was in front of the TV watching his morning shows. I kissed his head and he ignored me, everything was pretty much back to normal but he has to stay away from school today because the police want to talk to him.

Con had organized Mary to come with us and she would sit with the policewoman but any stress and we are out of there.

"But dad I have to go, I have to tells Bubby and Sean about the bad man," he was arguing with Conner.

"No baby, maybe we can make training and you can see them there?"

'But dad I have to tells the class about stranger danger."

"Ted you also have to talk to the police, maybe they will let you see their guns."

"Really dad, when are we going?" He suddenly got excited.

Grant came by just as John served up a large plate full of eggs, toast and bacon, not very healthy but fat free. I looked at Con as he took some bacon and chewed on it, he was defying me so I did the same and smiled at him, he blushed.

"I won't go with you Brent but will see you at the park, I have something to organize today," John was talking.

"Okay no problem John, we will see you there." I didn't know what he was up to, but he was up to something.

We four piled into the police station and were shown to the interview room and were allowed to sit in on their interview but couldn't speak. Mary had talked to the lady cop and our understanding was that she just wanted Ted to go through what happened and wouldn't ask too many questions. By the time they had nearly finished Ted was looking at me for help, his little body was shaking so Mary pulled the pin. The policewoman understood and said she had enough, she hugged Ted and thanked him and he asked to see her gun. She smiled and unsnapped it from its holster, he was all eyes but he couldn't touch. We asked about dad and she said they were moving him to the city watch house today.

As it turned out Con caught a glimpse of him being escorted out to a divvy van as we were heading for the car. He took off running and jumped on dad's back and while the two officers tried to drag him off, Con was hitting the side of his face calling him all the low life cunts under the sun.

Eventually I coaxed him off and while dad was pushed into the van Teddy was clapping his hands and screaming, "Way to go dad." It was a bit of a turning point because my son was smiling again and he was smiling at Conner.

"Dad you got him dad, he's gone away for good."

"He has son but I wish I had my cricket bat with me, I could have bopped him on the head."

"But dad you did hit him, he was crying and hurting dad, thank you."

"My pleasure son, if anyone annoys you again you just come and see me," Con puffed up. I felt good for him because up until now Ted really didn't want to know about Con, he was too worried about me but now he knows Con can protect us both.

"Dad can we go to school now, I want to tells the class how you bashed up the stranger danger and you can look after everyone if they wanted."

"What?" Con nearly fainted from shock.

"Yep your strong Con, you can look after twenty or so six year olds," I sniggered.

Grant had spoken to the detective who was handling the case and he thought with some creative bargaining he would get off jail time but would still have a long probation to do, maybe lots of community work. I had to think long and hard about this, he had scared Ted shitless and it can't happen again so that afternoon at training I had a talk to Con on the quiet. He wasn't too happy with me for suggesting it; I'm such a dick head sometimes, so I immediately forgot all about it.

I had planned on giving dad some money just to make him go away but Con said he would be back when it ran out so be prepared to have him in my life for the rest of my life. And if I did that it would undo everything that I had done to my parents. We had Ray onto getting intervention orders for both my mother and father, which would have to do us for now.
