I thought, damn I need to get a grip and manage him, but fuck he is here all the time. I founded the tightest shirt I had, which was a black Nike workout shirt and started downstairs. Once in the kitchen as dad was grilling something I poured an iced tea and asked Cole what he wanted some and he looked at me shook his head and said thanks. As I handed him the tea, I said, Cole I bet you can't finishing dinner without getting hard. He looked down and I saw a bulge and he said, so dinner hasn't started yet, right? I went outside and asked what's for dinner and he said grilled chicken and potatoes. I immediately went inside and started making a salad. Dinner was fun as Cole and I gave each other a hard time about our women. Cole said, Jessie was all over him not to break up. I said Carrie was still being a jerk about business. It was fun and we were amusing dad.
Then dad said, Cole you mom would like you to visit her in Washington this weekend. He looked confused and asked, so how am I getting there? Dad said, Cole I'll be driving you. Cole screamed, THATS FUCKING PERFECT. Ten hours in the car, round trip, and you and mom hang out and I am what the third wheel? Cole, dad said, you haven't seen her in two weeks? Then he looked right at dad and said, Mike how in the fuck is that my problem, she was to come home weekends? I watched this slightly amused and feeling sorry for Cole. Then he calmly got up and went upstairs. I looked at dad and said, nice job. I got up saying I'll be back and went and found Cole laying on the bed staring at the ceiling. I sat on the bed and he smiled saying this is my favorite place for you my bed and he laughed.
Cole, please listen, it can't always be about sex and I know you lost the bet. So Mike you here to collect? I said asshole, I'm here to find a way to make this weekend work for you. You need to see your mom. He sat up on one elbow and said, Mike I'm all ears. Ok, I'm thinking we leave no later than noon of Friday, hopefully earlier, get there in time for a "family" dinner. It's a two bedroom apartment, correct? Dad and your mom do their thing and you and I do our thing. Saturday you and your mom hang out all day and dad and I hang out. The rents can do dinner and you and I can do dinner and see what else there is to do. Sunday, you and your mom do breakfast and dad and I do breakfast and we are home by 6:00. Mike, I thought you would want to go to Hershey? Cole, family shit matters, so I'll hang with you. He sat up, gave me a big hug and said, let's go downstairs and see what I can negotiate for cooperating.
Downstairs he explained what we had worked out and added tell mom, I'm expecting scotch to drink and that's not an option. Dad looked at me and said, your idea? Cole said just leave him the fuck out of this, I'm already sick of you and mom and he sat down and finished eating. Dad was three shades of red and I shook my head and whispered just relax. Cole, finished eating and excused himself and went upstairs. Dad you could have approached that better. Besides he has been through a lot these two weeks, cut him a fucking break, please. Dad burst out laughing and said, shit you never defended a Bill like that. I shook my head and said you can really be an asshole sometimes. Besides I asked you to talk with him about that days ago. I finished eating, cleaned up and went upstairs.
I thought, fuck I'll just get this over with and called Carrie. I asked about work and she said it's very busy and she will be back tomorrow in school. I said, well that's great to hear. She said, well I'm glad you are pleased. I just that go and changed the subject to the game. She said she did not think she would be going. Then she said if you would only help? Carrie, we have been at this for 3 days and I'm not doing this any more. In fact I think we need to take a break from each other. She started to cry and asked, so you are breaking up with me over work? I said, babe I love you but I am not doing this every day. I hope we are not breaking up but we are taking a break. There is the game tomorrow and I need to work on Thursday and I'm going out of town for the weekend with dad. I call you on Sunday when we get back. Carrie, I love you I just can't live like this. Good night and I'll see you in school tomorrow. It was my turn to lay on the bed and stare at the ceiling.
I called JJ and when he answered, I said English please. He said ok, but you will never get the hang of this if you don't even try. JJ, I get that but the thing is I just told Carrie we needed a break and the truth if she doesn't get it I won't be able to deal with that. This is sounding like same thing that went on with my mom and dad. MJ, it will be fine, anyone watching how you two look at each other know how tight you are. I laughed and said JJ, please call her and tell her that. This is fucking serious. MJ everything is fucking serious with you, lighten the fuck up. I said shit, I should have called Jim. MJ whenever you need to hear what you want to hear he is a good one to call, that's not me. So we talking or you calling your wingman? I said, asshole, I called you first so take a beep breath and figure it the fuck out or you need me to beg? MJ, if you can't deal with her messing with your business stay the course. If you want pussy whipped give in. I laughed and said well she did say she would fuck me into submission. MJ, what did you do? JJ, I exploded and said get out of my room. I went for a quick ride and exploded again and took her home. MJ, you seem to have this. JJ are you going to the game tomorrow night? He said yes but he wasn't doing the military theme and would be sitting with the adults and that Dee wasn't going. So dude I'll drive and I need another blood test and he laughed. Jim and Hannah can figure it out as I don't want to be a third or fourth wheel. Besides I need a break from all the women.
JJ, Cole, dad and I are going to DC this weekend. It's a command performance from Cole's mom. MJ so you are not going to the finals in Hershey? JJ, I bet they lose tomorrow night, I just have a bad feeling and family first. MJ, that's a bet. JJ, I almost forgot are you still making a recruiting trip to VT? He said sure, I'm doing every trip the rules permit. Well JJ, that's are some guys that will be Sophomores next year and they are great to hang with, just have the coaches set them up with you. So when are you and Jim making a visit? I said depends of weather Carrie is still in the picture. Seriously, MJ I bet it works out and that makeup sex is fun. Jj there has been too much makeup sex. I laughed and said good night Athos. He said who? MJ look it up and I hung up.
Feeling better I decided I needed to do a better job dealing with Carrie. I thought about calling and then thought about an email and thought the best approach is nothing and she would call if she felt like it or have have Sam call to see where my head was. Just then Cole came in and said thanks for the help at dinner. I already apologized to your dad. Cole, thanks for doing that, he already bitched at me for defending you more than I ever defended Bill. He said thanks again. So Cole, these tasks you have been involved in, what was involved? Cole sat there and blushed and I said dude just tell me and I bet I have done more and most likely kinkier. He smiled and said, sucking and swallowing, spankings, watersports, anal and bondage. I laughed and said, that all? So what's the task for tonight? Cole, something either very different that you have not done yet and is not real pleasant or something normal, your choice. Is there more information available, Mike? I said sounds. So Mike you are going to put a rod up my cock? Yes and jack you off till you shoot. Cole, I'm letting this be your choice and that's unusual and it might never happen again so the sounding will eventually happen, so what is it? Cole, stood stripped stood there looking at me and said Mike, do what you want. I stood up and said take my clothes off? As he was doing that I was thinking what next. Once I was stripped I got on all fours and said eat my ass and stick that tongue as far as you can in my hole. He went at it like an expert. Then I said stand up and bend over my desk. I said this is going to hurt and you better not make a sound. I took my belt and administered three lashes as hard as I could and he was stone silent. I went to the night stand got some lube and put a glob on his ass and went to town and pumped that sexy ass as hard and for as long as I could finally shooting my load deep in his ass collapsing on his back. I pulled him to his feet and took his hand and led him my bed pushed him on the bed and climbed in and held him. We were kissing and making out and just holding each other. Then he rolled over and said, thanks for taking it easy on me but I would not have done that for you. Cole, I wish I hadn't but it's that fucking strange mood I am in around you.
As he was gathering his clothes I asked, so do you think we can bet during the weekend? He said, MJ I don't know but we are having sex. Cole, what's with the MJ? Athos, said I could call you MJ, so Rule 3 all the time. He kissed me grabbed his clothes and went to his room naked. I laid there laughing and thought two musketeers and me, where is there room for my wingman? Fuck, more complications and damn Cole and those fucking feelings. Then it hit me that's the reason for this mood and my inability to focus, my new brother. I need to keep him being a brother and not a sex object or whatever he is right now. Laying there naked, I piled the covers on and fell asleep.
I woke to a very rainy morning so it was coffee and the paper and no Cole. I was done with the paper so I took coffee upstairs and heard the shower running and I went in and jumped into the shower with Cole. He said MJ, good morning my ass is sore from the pounding you gave it last night. I laughed and said well good morning. He was finished and while leaving he reached over and changed the water to all cold. I yelled, asshole you better wake dad up or your walking to school. I dressed in Jeans and a tight shirt and dockers with no socks. It was my cocky jock look and I added my letterman jacket. Cole was ready and I drove him to his school and had time to spare as I pulled into our parking lot. Walking to the building I ran into Jim and said wingman, how are you? Mike, I'm good but I hear you and Carrie are having a rough patch, how is that? Jim how did you hear about that and he said the girls are trying to figure it out. I laughed and said I made it very, very clear to Carrie. I tried and tried and after 3 days told her we needed to take a break and I would call her Sunday when I got back in town. Mike, where are you going? Washington with dad and Cole. So are you going to the game tonight? I said yup, stag. Do you need a ride? I said Jim you and Hanna enjoy the night, I'll see you there.
First period English was typical and Carrie came in at the last minute and sat beside me as usual. After class I didn't say anything and went to Spanish. JJ said MJ how are you? Why did you tell Cole he could call me MJ? He said mierde llegar al punto por que no (shit get to the point, why don't you)? soempre amigo! (Always, dude). Then class started and I was getting a little better, but not much. After class I said JJ, what's the story? Dude, not here and not now, see you at lunch. History was also typical this time Carrie was there and I sat beside her. I signed out of study hall and went to workout.
When I got to the car I saw Carrie sitting on the hood of my car. When I got there she jumped down and gave me a big hug and said can we please get in the car and talk? We got in the car and I didn't day a word and she asked where we were going? I said, I'm taking you home and next time your ass is on the hood of my car I'm calling school security. We were quiet until she said, Mike this job is fun and I like being involved in something. Why can't you help me? I took a deep breath and said you got it wrong you don't want or need help, you want me to help J & J. That is a big fucking difference. We were quiet until we pulled in her driveway and I said, please get out. She looked at me and asked do you still love me? I turned and looked at her and said, if you have to ask that question, we have more problems than I thought, now please get out. She got out and slammed the door and started for the door and I rolled down the window and yelled, YES and drove home.
At home, I made a sandwich and decided to call Carrie. She answered and I said same question? She said yes, asshole. I said I really need to hear that but I really need a break. See you in school and please stay off the hood of my car. She laughed and said ok, Sunday and hung up.
Almost immediately it was JJ on the phone asking hola, cuando recognes mi trasero para juego? (When you picking my ass up for the game?) cuando llegue alli pero pronto (When I get there but soon). Si crees que estoy haciendo espanol toda la noche estas loco. ( If you think I'm doing Spanish all night your nuts.) He laughed and said de prisa por favor. (Hurry please). I cleaned up and went upstairs and dressed in "adult" clothes and my letterman jacket and picked JJ up and it was a drive of a little over an hour. I filled him in on the Carrie situation. He said, it must just be the time of the year as he is trying to figure out his woman situation as well. I asked if he wanted to swap and we both laughed. Parking at the game site was easy and free. We had tickets so just went inside, found our section and sat in the top row.
There was as usual an earlier game and I noticed that our sections, both adult and student, were less attended than previous games. It's a long season, a long ride and a weeknight so I thought that was normal. Our Gand was in army clothes and were having a good time with Sam involved up to his asshole. Watching warmups I thought our guys were flat or nervous, couldn't tell which. The game started and flat was an understatement and we were down 10 halfway through the first quarter. I was hoping it was our usual salon start and we were down 5 at the end of the first quarter. Things didn't get any better and we were down bu 5 to 10 points the entire first half. Shots not falling, errant passes and turnovers. Nothing going our way at all. When they came out for the second half Rob was obvious fuming. An assistant coach came up to him and started to say something and Rob yelled something back and the coach walked away. I thought damn, that's not like Rob at all, but more like me. The game got more intense as the third quarter moved along and Rob was playing out of his mind and we were 2 down starting the 4th quarter. I noticed Rob standing outside the huddle and not paying attention. The game was very intense and stayed close. We were down two with :16 left and inbounding the ball under the basket we were shooting at. The ball was lobed above the basket and Rob grabbed it and with guys hanging all over him slammed it through the hoop and was filed. There was not :12 left and a tie game and Rob had a foul shot and drained it. There was another time out and Rob once again was not in the huddle and the head coach grabbed him and Rob pulled free and I think he said, go fuck your self and went on the court. The inbound pass was deflected and still not our ball but 2 more seconds off the clock. The ball was inbounded and another time out with :06 left and Rob did the same thing. In fact he never went to the huddle. The other team had a little trouble inbounding and a long desperate shot was an air ball and we walked out a trip to the State Finals. There were the usual handshakes and the alma mater was sung and I saw Rob and his dad having a conversation. He should have gone to the locker room as the media was all over him and he was calmly answering questions. I was dying to know what the fuck happened. Suddenly the head coach appeared and said something to Rob who shook his head no and kept answering questions. I was betting the paper tomorrow would be interesting. Rob finally finished and went into the locker room and was out almost immediately in warmups and a gym bag and him and his dad left.
JJ said, I don't know Rob that well, but I think he was pissed. I said duh, that was fucking obvious and totally out of character. As we were leaving I saw Sam getting on the student buss and he gave me the finger and yelled thanks for joining us, I smiled and waved. At the car I tossed JJ the keys and said dude you can drive, I'm expecting a phone call and don't want distracted driving added to my two DUI's and JJ laughed and said awesome. We were not out of the parking lot and my phone rang and JJ looked at me and said, buena llamada. (Good call). Without looking at my phone, I said hello, this is Mike. Naturally it was Coach Weston, wearing his AD hat. Mike were you at the game? I said yup, sitting with the adults. What the hell happened? Coach we won. He said, don't be a smart shit? I replied coach ask your basketball coach and I'll talk with Rob and we can sort this out before class in your office, I hope. If not you can wright me a pass and we can spend the day. That was very far out of character for Rob. Coach, have a good night and relax, there is just one game left.
JJ asked do you control him like that during the season, I laughed and said fuck no. I thanked JJ for driving and he said he had been lusting for time behind these wheels and my phone rang and I looked this time and it was Rob. I answered saying great job and I'm looking forward to reading the paper tomorrow morning, what's up? Before you say anything I know you are in the car with your dad, so I get it. Mike, that coach doesn't know his ass from a hole in the ground. Rob, you and him and a bunch of other guys are in a fucking state final. Somebody knows something? Rob, it's a long season and lots of pressure, one more game, deal with it. Mike he treats up like shit. He berated everyone of us at halftime, threw a trash can and I was called a cock sucking, ass eating, pussy fag. Well Rob, you have to give him points for creativity, those words dot usually go together. What else happened? Well he wanted to make some changes that we thought were stupid, we all spoke up, then I told him he was lucky to have us because if it was up to his coaching we would not have made the playoffs let alone a state semi-final and if we pulled this out it would be in spite of him. Rob, what did you tell the media? The same normal stuff and when asked over and over again why I was upset, I said either no comment, ask the coach or emotions were running very high. Rob please put your dad on. Mike, he is driving and we will pull over and he will call you. I said thanks and hang in, just one more game. Mike, we collectively won't play another game for him, State's or not. Rob, you played a great game tonight and no coach can take that away from you. I just looked at JJ and said, welcome to my life and he just shook his head.
We were taking about how exciting the game was and the fact that I had lost a bet about the outcome and JJ was thrilled about that. Then it was back to the girls and that mess. Then I remembered Cole and asked what's with Cole and the MJ thing. Mike, have you realized yet that the wingman thing isn't working for you yet? JJ, it works trust me. MJ it works every time you need cover and to hear what you want to hear. Oh, he has your back and he will never a college D1 quarterback he isn't tough enough. JJ, you haven't seen the QB1 in him. He actually calls a auditable when he doesn't like what Coach sends in and in critical parts of the game. Mike, I bet that's with your urging.
My phone rand and I answered with, is it really that bad? Rob's dad said, I sent Rob out of ear shot and yes it is that bad. Mike, he pushed a kid in the locker room and there is damage to the room. I said damn, how much damage? The trash can broke a window. I said, I have already talked with the AD and I'll call him right now. I'll ask Coach Weston for a players only meeting in the late morning. I'm sure the media will be all over this, Rob's comments while very good will only peak their interest. Keep him calm and as captain I'm sure he will be Weston's first call. He said thanks Mike and hung up. I didn't have to make a call as my phone rang and it was Coach Weston. I said coach I heard this is really bad. Mike, do me a favor and meet me at school? I said coach how about my house? He said ok, I'll see if that works for Dr. Johnson. I asked so coach why me? Mike you have been through this as a player and you have a total understanding of how they are reacting. I said fine, I assume you are behind us as we left pretty quickly. I said JJ you are in for a real information session and it involves rules 1, 2, 3 and 4. He said damn, so I'm spending the night? I said yes and slow down. Then I said, no your not, I forgot about Cole and we all have class tomorrow, your going home.
I called Coach Weston and said coach, let's do this tomorrow morning, there is not enough information as we need to hear what the media reports and fall out from the state and the league. Mike, why will there be fallout from the State? Coach, the damage in the locker room, you know the thrown cash can and the broken window. Mike, I talked with the coach and he didn't mention that. I bet he left out that he pushed a player and that he called a team captain a cock sucking, ass eating, pussy fag? So coach, tonight you should talk with other coaches and wait for the fall out. The guys will not play another game with him, you need to find out how universal that is. He said, Mike and you asked why you were involved. Coach, this isn't one disgruntled kid. I'll be in by 6:30.
I called dad and he answered saying, Mike are you ok? I said yes, please record the news and I'll be right home and JJ and I are not involved, see you soon.
