I took the envelope and the question was on my face.
"It is the contact information for your brothers adoptive parents. They agreed to meet you at your convienence about an hour ago. I knew you were coming in for this so I didn't see the need too call you."
"Where are they?"
"Little town in upstate New York."
"That's too good to be true. We're going to the Falls for our honeymoon. I can do this next week!"
"Just remember please to not commit to anything without talking to us first."
"I wouldn't think of it. Does Karl know?"
"No sir, client confidentiallity and all that."
"This is probably going to go over like a lead ballon when I tell him. Guess I had better do it tonight so he can get over it before the ceremony."
"I'm sure Mr Holtz will be supportive."
"I hope so. Well have yourself a good week Mr Jacobs and I hope to see you Saturday."
It was back out to the car and over to the Mall to pick up my tux. A quick test fit and then I was on my way to the house. I took the tux in and hung it up and then made my way to the kitchen. Karl was already home and he took a look at me and knew something was up.
"Give it to me Den."
"The adoptive parents have agreed to see me. They're in upstate New York. We can do this next week,please?"
"I know this is important to you lover but to let it interfere with our honeymoon? No more than one afternoon Den. That's all I'm willing to give up."
"Then that's what I'll take lover. I'm betting it will only take a couple of hours if that much. There's still no promise that it will turn into anything, but I'm hoping."
"I just hope you don't hope yourself into a big disappointment lover."
"Me too. I know damn well that he may not want to see me, but I've got to try Karl."
"Never said not to try Den, just be prepared."
Seeing as I had made stops, we sat right down to supper and later took a swim before calling it a night
Tuesday dawned rainy so there was no jogging this morning. Karl and I took a long leisurely shower this morning, and after breakfast were on our sepreate ways to work.
Stan Bellows had nothing surpriseing to report this morning and Angelo and I got right to it when the bell sounded. Patrick was still in a fairly good mood so I figured everything was going along on that front. I took a quick look at my imaginary portfolio and things were going along fine there. So, why did I have this feeling as we got closer to the closing bell that something was going to happen?
It must have just been my over active imagination as the closing bell rolled around and nothing happened. Everyone was soon on their way home.
I got there ahead of Karl tonight and I saw why when he came in and hung up his tux next to mine.
"You tried it on first right?"
"Yeah of course. Dad and Bobbie got theirs today as well. Mom and sis have their dresses already so that's taken care of. Guess we'll have to check with Aaron in the morning and make sure he has his."
"Yeah and I'll call and remind Pete,though I'm betting his mom won't let him forget."
We soon after had our supper and then spent an hour or so in the workout room before calling it a night and crashing in front of the tv for a while. I checked that everything was locked up and we headed for bed.
Hump day and the usual routine took over once again. I checked with Aaron and he had picked up his tux,so it was just down to Pete now. Back to the house,showered and fed and off to work once again.
Stans report was business as usual so we went right to work and just surfed the markets. Still I had this feeling that something was coming. And again 4:30 got there and there wasn't anything surprising.
Soon enough I was home and dinner was had and then Karl and I packed our bags for our honeymoon. The rest of the night was spent in front of the tv and we were out of it by 11.
Thursday and I was starting to get jumpy over the whole thing. What if Karls uncle decided to make a scene,or for that matter if somebody like Larry Browns father decided to crash the wedding?
Karl could easly see I was getting jumpy.
"Deep breaths love. We'll get through this without any problems."
"So you say love, but my stomach doesn't believe you."
"Just get through the day love and then it's just tomorrow. Then it's clear sailing."
"I hope to hell you're right."
We got our jogging in as well as breakfast and were on our ways once again.
Stan reported a slight uptick in activity in the overnight and European markets but nothing to get excited about. The day seemed to drag on forever but just at 4:30 Stan appeared at the front of the trading room.
"Mr Sawyer could you come here please. We have a bit of a situation."
Now Stan was actually standing in front of the break room so I was pretty sure it wasn't anything happening on the markets, so a personnel problem.
Stan directed me into the break room and everyone yelled "Surprise!"
There was a congratulations sign strung from the ceiling and a sheet cake, but there were two grooms in the center of it.
"We knew you wouldn't have time for this tomorrow night Dennis, but we are all happy for you."
"Thank you all but you shouldn't have."
"Yes they should lover."
I felt Karls arms come around me from behind. I turned into him and gave him a kiss.
"You knew?"
"Nope got a call about a half hour ago to be here."
Well we had to shake everybodies hands, even the guys from the mail room. About an hour later we got to cut the cake and it wasn't to long after that Karl and I were able to make our escape.
"See you at home lover."
"You can bet on it."
We both took it easy getting home and Mrs Ohanlon was still there with supper ready for us. We had finished and Mrs Ohanlon had taken off for home when the doorbell rang.
"I wonder who the hell that could be?"
I went to the door and Aaron, Roland, and Pete were standing there.
"What the hell guys?"
"Batchelor Party!"
Pete grabbed me and Aaron and Roland went in and grabbed Karl. We were quickly escorted to a stretch limo and were quickly on the road.
"You guys are fucking nuts!"
It didn't take long for me to realize we were headed for Club Mann.
"No private room I hope?"
"Nope just a reserved table front and center.......well maybe a bit more."
"So help me Aaron, I'll get even for this. You won't know when, you won't know where, but when you least expect it."
We pulled up to the club and were shown right in to a very large table at the front of the club. There were already people there waiting on us. The biggest surprise there was Gordon and Aiden.
There was a lot of backslapping and hand shaking and finally we got to sit down. There was a bottle of champagne at my elbow, which I made sure got passed around. Last thing I needed tomorrow was a hangover.
The show started once we got settled and I was concerned that Pete was going to be uncomfortable with the whole thing, so even while enjoying the show,I kept an eye on him.
The dancers it seemed were given special instructions tonight to play to our table. They all made it a point to stop by and give both Karl and I a good eyeful.
Jason came by and even gave both of us a bit of a lap dance which had everybody hooting.
Before we knew it, 11pm had come and gone.
"Gentlemen, and I use that term loosely, much as I am enjoying this I do have to work in the morning as I am sure some of you do. We shall see you all Saturday afternoon if not sooner."
We got hugs from everybody and the five of us made our way back out to the waiting limo and were shortly dropped off at the house.
"After this no jogging in the morning for us Aaron."
"Us either I think. Catch you at the rehearsal tomorrow."
Karl and I made our way into the house and made sure it was locked up and then we crashed.
When we got up Friday morning Mrs Ohanlon was already there as we had slept in for the extra hour. Morning routine kicked in after that as we were fed and on our way to work once again.
When I walked in Stan gave me a bit of a look.
"Looking a little ragged there this morning boss."
"We got thrown a batchelor party last night. We were up a bit later than usual."
"Nobody would mind if you crashed out in your office I'm sure."
"I'd mind. I'll tough it out at my desk,just keep in mind that I'm going to have to get out of here on time tonight. the rehearsal starts at 5:30 and its a twenty minute drive across town to the convention center at the best of times."
"There's nothing up anybodies sleeve as far as I know Dennis."
"I hope to hell not. I'm not sure I could stand anymore."
The opening bell sounded soon enough and we made our way through the day without any problems that I knew of. About 4 I printed out my final report on my imaginary investemnts and turned it over to Angelo
"Well Mr Sawyer, you made quite a bit of money over the summer. Most of the folks who go through the course average about a 3% return on investment. You managed a very respectable 5.25 %. I'd say you are well ready to take the reins."
"Thank you Mr Terrentollo. I still have another year at state before I can do that though. Right now though I need to get myself in gear and get over to the convention center. I'll see you all next summer."
I had to shake everybodies hand once again before I made it out of the office and headed over to the convention center.
I was the last one to arrive and we got through the rehearsal and subsequent dinner. It was back to the house and I gave Karl one hell of a kiss before he grabbed his tux and headed over to his house. His parents had insisted that we not see each other again until we were standing in front of the Justice of the peace.
I was laying in bed when my phone buzzed with a text message.
Love you to pieces Den. Less than 24 hours
and we'll never have to be apart again.
Love you more Karl. Try and get some sleep
Tomorrow is going to be a long day.
