The whole squad was there and you could almost feel the tension dissipate.
"Thanks, Coach. That's half the battle."
"I have every confidence that you'll win the other half as well Dennis."
"I hope to hell you're right Coach."
"OK folks hit the showers or whatever else it is you do."
Which had me getting my bathing suit and doing a few laps in the pool and then hitting the whirlpool. Dana was there when I arrived.
"Think you are going to beat this other thing Den?"
"I've got to believe that I am Dana. I know that I've played by the rules on this thing and if the instructor was in any condition to say something, I'd be in the clear. I still don't know what happened to him."
"And that is pretty unusual in itself. Usually, there aren't any secrets around here."
"Yeah, well somebody is sure keeping this one for whatever reason."
"So what can you do about it all?"
"Nothing that I can think of except keeping up with the requirements of the class as best I can."
"I hope to hell this gets resolved soon Den."
"No more than I do believe me."
We soaked for a few more minutes and then headed for the showers. I was soon on my way back to the apartment. When I got there Karl and I grabbed a light lunch and settled into whatever bookwork we had to complete for next week.
We had our supper and then just crashed in front of the tube for a couple of hours before going to bed.
Sunday Morning and we were up and out for our run with the guys.
"So, any news Den?"
"Only that I'm back to practice with the team. Other than that not a word."
"You're going to beat this Den."
"I have to think so Aiden, otherwise there's no point in continuing with everything else."
"And we all know it's not in you to just give up."
"True enough Cam. Now you guys stop worrying about me and pay attention to your own studies. It's only a couple of weeks until finals."
"Don't remind me. I fucking hate taking tests."
"Better get used to it Paul. Three more years of it after this."
We finally finished our laps and Karl and I got back to the apartment and showered and had our breakfast. I had finished all of my bookwork for the week, the portfolio was up to date, and I just wasn't in the mood to start reviewing for the finals. I just grabbed the novel I had been reading and settled in for the day. We did grab lunch at some point and at just about 6 I heard the gate open.
"Looks to be that time again lover."
"I wonder what we're having tonight?"
"As long as it isn't Calamari I think I'm good."
Tonight it was veal alfredo with noodles and as always it was delicious. It was a quiet dinner this week and we soon enough had the table cleared and Karl and I were back upstairs.
Karl had a little work to finish. I was on the couch reading. and I had just about finished my novel. Karl joined me on the couch and had his arm around me and started nuzzling at my ear.
"Shall we hit the bedroom early Den?"
In answer, I just leaned over and kissed him and then made my way into the bedroom.
We were both soon enough naked and caressing each other and finally, Karl pushed me down on the bed. I stretched out and made myself ready to receive him.
Karl slowly sunk himself into me and then started slow and gently. My hands were caressing his back and shoulders as he worked his way in and out of me.
"Really do me, lover."
Karl obliged as he picked up his pace a bit and started driving into me harder.
"Yesssssssssssssssssssssssssss!"
Karl really set to work on me as he drove his cock deep into me over and over again. It wasn't that long before I felt him start to tense up as he quickly approached his climax and he pumped his love deep into me.
I held him tight as he finished and then he started to kiss his way down my body. He finally came to my rock-hard shaft and he engulfed me. He took my cock greedily and worked my entire shaft.
It wasn't that long before I fired my load down his throat. He kept up until I was completely spent and then worked his way back up to me and kissed me long and hard.
Shortly after we were asleep until the alarm went off at 5:30.
So it was once again up and out and over to campus for jogging. Again there was little conversation this morning and we got our laps done and Karl and I were back to the apartment. Showered and fed we took off to our classes once again.
Where it was just general discussion now at Investment Vehicles, the class was rather sparsely attended. The tax class was well attended as we were still covering specifics. Mr McEmbers didn't have anything to say to me today, but there was still that gleam in his eye.
So as usual I was over to the student union for my lunch. Not much to my surprise it was Bob Watson who found me again today.
"Still haven't heard anything to report Dennis."
"Neither have I, Bob. Guess this is one we'll all have to wait until the endgame for."
"What are you going to do if this goes against you, Dennis?"
"Whatever I have to. I don't know how it works with a certification program. I might have to do the whole thing all over again or I might just have to repeat the practicum. That might well be an addendum to whatever article you get to write."
"Yeah, something for me to look into for background at least. I'm still seeing the lights on in the dean's office later than usual."
"Like I said last week, that could be anything. Regardless, keep your ears open Bob."
"I will Dennis, later."
I finished my lunch and when it was time I headed over to Risk/Rewards. The class went as expected and I was soon on my way to the apartment.
I checked to see what was out for supper and then went to review my portfolio once again. I knew it wasn't likely that I would get a review tomorrow, but I was going to be ready. I didn't make any changes and I made sure that the copy of all of my notes was still in my backpack.
Karl got home and we soon enough had our supper.
"So what are you going to do tomorrow?"
"I'm going to go to the practicum just like I always do. If he blows me off again then he does. Not much I can do about it."
"You can call him on it."
"To what point? He's already made up his mind. Any review that he gave me would be pro forma at best."
"Yeah, but if you call him on it and he still refuses, I'm betting that word will get back to the Dean and that might just give him something to work with."
"Sounds like you're trying to build something like a breach of contract case."
"I'm betting it could be argued that way Den."
"I'll think about it, Karl. It might just be adding fuel to the fire though."
"Just a thought lover."
The rest of the evening passed quietly and we sacked out about 11.
5:30 got there sooner than wanted once again and we were up and over to campus for our laps with the guys. Seeing as there wasn't anything new to report it was a quiet run again this morning.
Karl and I went back to the apartment to get ready for our day, and he was off to his classes. I sat there and thought about what he had suggested. It could hardly make things worse.
I headed into the practicum and we were still meeting in the lecture hall. The 15 minutes of discussion was had.
"Before I start reviews, for those of you who warrant them, you will close out your accounts using the closing prices from this Friday and final reports are due to me on the 23rd."
At that point, Mr Adams started the reviews, and I waited for my turn.
When I was the last one there he picked up his briefcase and started out of the room.
"Mr Adams, have you forgotten my review?"
"I said I would have reviews for those who warranted them, Mr Sawyer."
"And why do you think that I don't warrant one sir?"
"You know very well Mr Sawyer. I don't believe that you built your portfolio without the help of your company."
"Even after my giving you my word of honor?"
"Your family has no honor, Mr Sawyer. Good day."
Once again I could have sworn I heard something from the upper gallery, which was once again unlit.
I left the room and headed outside, but instead of heading over to the student union, I waited a few minutes. My patience was rewarded a few minutes later when I saw Dean Evans, Mr. McEmbers, Mr. Blevins, Mrs McCauley, and a few other folks all walk out of the building together.
