"Patrick has been notified?"
"Yeah he was the first call."
"Anyway for him or me to monitor the process?"
"None, but I'm keeping and eye on things. Kids being stripped searched right now and then he'll be photographed front and rear. That's just as much for his protection as it is for ours by the way."
"Still damn humiliating I'm thinking."
"Absolutely, but it serves the intimidation angle of the whole thing. Ah I see the guys are giving him the full treatment."
"The full treatment?"
"I can't hear what's going on but the way the kid just blanched I'm betting somebody said something to the effect that the older boys may well love his tight little ass."
"They wouldn't would they?"
"No but they may well make him think it is a possibility."
"How long does this last Dana?"
"At least 24 hours but no more than 48."
"Try and keep Patrick informed even if it is only a text."
"You know I will Dennis. I've got to go. They're getting ready to put him in holding."
"The real deal or a set up?"
"Both actually. You'd be surprised how willing some of the real crooks are to help."
"They get anything out of it?"
"As far as the courts are concerned no, on the downlow the DA is informed that they did help us. Other than that only what their minds allow them."
"Okay Dana. Please keep an eye on him and give me a call in the morning. You know when and where to find me."
"Only too well Dennis. Later."
"What's going on Dennis?"
"They picked up Patricks brother a bit ago. They're processing him right now."
"Why do I see a sleepless night for you Den?"
"Because you know me to well lover. You know that I'm going to be worried about this all night and all day tomorrow."
"It lasts that long?"
"Up to 48 hours according to Dana. I've got a feeling it's going to be the full press for this kid though."
"Why love?"
"Because if I know Dana he made sure my fingerprints were all over this. To paraphrase him the department knows what it owes me."
"Just remember that they are likely to stamp that one paid in full after this."
"If it works, it will be worth every bit of it. Now let's try and get some sleep."
"Yeah right."
I don't know about Karl, but I must have eventually dropped off as the alarm was ringing in my ear. We were up and out and the usual routine was followed.
When we got back to the house Mrs Ohanlon simply held the phone out to me.
"Morning Dennis. Alex spent a rather sleepless night tucked into a corner. Everybody is playing their parts well,including the actual detainees. They're just getting ready to take them all out to breakfast. Anything major happens I'll let you know."
"Thanks Dana. You told his brother yet?"
"Nope protocol is to have as little contact with the guardian as possible. I shouldn't be talking to you, but I cleared it with the chief."
"Okay, thanks again Dana. Later."
"Well?"
"I think the poor kid might already be scared shitless. Hopefully this will be over later today."
"Your guy is likely to be a basketcase today as well love."
"More than likely so I'm going to try and be at his elbow today."
"From what you've told me that isn't likely to make your trainer happy."
"Tough, he'll get over it or he won't. It's just one more week, not like this is a pass or fail course or anything."
"Yeah I suppose not."
We were soon both showered up, fed and on our way to our seperate job sites.
I found Stan and filled him in with the broad strokes and outlined my plan for the day.
"Sounds like you've already made up your mind Dennis."
"I have Stan. It going to be a problem?"
"Not as far as I'm concerned. Angelo,I'm sure, can be made to see the logic of it."
Angelo and Parick both showed up again at the same time and when Patrick saw that I was set up to support him today he got a bit of a smile on his face.
"There's no need...Dennis."
"Patrick, I'm betting you got even less sleep than I did last night. So yeah there is a need,even if it is only moral support. Mr Terrentollo?"
"I have no problem whatsoever Mr Sawyer as long as you have your financial report ready for me by end of day."
I pulled Patrick aside.
"What have you heard?"
"Only that he was picked up, you?"
"He was strip searched, photographed, and spent a rather sleepless night from all reports."
"But nobodies touched him right?"
"Not as far as I know, other than what was absolutely required."
"I don't know what it is lately but he doesn't want to be touched by anybody."
"I wonder of that might be part of something bigger?"
"Always possible I suppose. Well let's get this day started so we can get it behind us."
We all got down to work and the day progressed without too much drama. There was a small spike in the industial averages later in the afternoon,but nothing earth shattering.
4:30 finally got there and I printed out my report for Angelo and things got shut down. When I checked my phone there was a simple text.
"Things going according to plan."
It was from Dana of course and I showed it to Patrick.
"With any luck things should be over later tonight."
"They'll bring him home?"
"Probably. If they do why don't you and Alex come over to my place later on in the afternoon tomorrow. Bring your swim suits and we'll make a dinner out of it."
"Damn nice of you Dennis but I don't want to impose and Alex is likely to be in a mood after all of this."
"What better way to lighten his mood than a party?"
"Maybe. I'll see how things go."
"Can't ask for more than that. Try and have a good night Patrick. If you need me you know how to get ahold of me."
"I do boss and I'll try not to abuse that priviledge."
"Get outta here."
"Well Mr Sawyer,looks as though your investments are holding up rather well. Just one more week and then you'll be on your honeymoon and then back to school."
"And at this point I don't know which I'm more concerned about."
"Mr Sawyer line three please?"
"Oh crap I hope that isn't Dana."
I picked up the phone.
"Ah good I caught you before you left. I just needed to remind you to come by and sign the prenup agreement before the wedding Mr Sawyer,Mr Holtz as well."
"I'll make it a point to do so on Monday Mr Jacobs and I'll try and get Karl over at the same time."
"Very good sir. Have a good weekend."
"You as well Mr Jacobs."
I was soon enough on my way home and I rolled into the yard and Roland and Aaron were waiting on me.
"What up guys?"
"Just checking to make sure everything is still on schedule Dennis."
"Everything is going along as it should Roland."
"Very good. Don't forget that you need to pick up your tux no later than Thursday,everybody else for that matter."
"I'll remind Karl and his family. Guess I'd better give Pete a call as well. Hey why don't you guys come over tomorrow after I get back from Edgeton and we can have a last summer party?"
"Sounds good to me Dennis. We need to bring anything over?"
"Just yourselves and your sense of fun Aaron."
"That we can do. The other thing is we want to take you and Karl out to Manny's for a kind of batchelor party."
The timing of the question was good as Karl came through from the house to see what was going on.
"As long as we're not out too late tonight. I still need to go to my workout in the morning. Karl?"
"Fine by me. Give us a couple of hours to eat and get ready. Who is going to drive?"
"I'll drive as I'm not going to be drinking anyway."
"Ok we'll meet here at 8?"
"Sounds like a plan."
Aaron and Roland took off, Karl and I went into supper. Mrs Ohanlon was soon enough off for the weekend and Karl and I were into the shower and dressed in good slacks and decent shirts and were out to the garage waiting on the guys.
They were there right at 8 and we motored on over to Mannys and the place was packed tonight. I invited a few friends, both straight and gay,male and female, over to the house for tomorrow as well. Might just as well make it a real party.
Along about 10:30 my phone vibrated and I looked at it. It was a text from Patrick.
"He's home but he isn't saying a word. He's holded up in his room."
"Not much for you to do but be there for him when he comes out."
"Doubtful we'll show tomorrow."
"Try anyway."
A little after 11 we decided to call it a night and that Karl and I wouldn't be jogging in the morning as to save it for my final workout.
Karl and I crashed soon after that and by 7 the next morning we were on our way over to Edgeton.
Coach was right there waiting for us and we got right to work and he was pleased enough that he let me go earlier than I expected.
Karl and I made your basic party stop on the way home for everything from potato salad to paper plates and utensils.
By 2 the bar was stocked with a couple of different kinds of beer both alcoholic and not all in cans thank you very much as glass in the pool would simply disappear until somebody found it with their foot. Plastic tumblers all around for mixed drinks. people started showing up shortly after that.
About 4 the doorbell rang and it was Patrick and Alex.
"Good of you to show up Patrick."
"Nice to be here Dennis. This is my little brother Alex."
"Welcome to my home Alex."
I stuck my hand out to shake and Alex just looked at me.
"Alexander that is incredibly rude. What has gotten into to you?"
"I just don't want to touch people."
"Why not Alex?"
"Because...."
It was obvious that Alex was fighting with something.
"Because I'm gay damn it! How can I touch anyone knowing what I might want to do with them or how they'll react?"
