The morning run was a lot of fun and at the end JJ pealed off and went home saying he would see us in school. Once we were home Cole put the coffee on and I jumped in the shower. My room was a mess and smelled of cigarettes. I opened the window and sprayed air freshener and started picking up JJ clothes and shoved them in his bag. Then I stripped the bed got dressed and went down stairs and got a cup of coffee. The extra time gained by not taking Cole to a school helped. Cole joined me for coffee and said, MJ thanks for yesterday, I especially enjoyed the nude demonstration. While it was fun, I got the damn message. I smiled and said, let's go or we will be late.

On the way to school, I asked if him and Sam had selected the weekend getaway location and he promised to have that discussion. Then he said he would be home right after school as he canceled the golf as he had no ride to St. Clair and he was tired of imposing on me. Cole, I was planning on working out after school but I'll drop you off at the club and and work out at the gym. You have a ride back home? He said that the pro drops him off. We got out of the car and went our separate ways. At the door Carrie stopped me and asked so who is Riley? I said my new executive secretary and yes, she will be working with J & J on the furniture and keeping me informed, I have another project to start. I just left her standing there and made a mental note to talk with Riley.

English class was interesting as there was a short quiz on the reading, I did the other night. I looked at Carrie and she was struggling. I was all over it, having done the reading. She was visibly shaken by the quiz. I laughed and quietly asked, so you too busy sucking Rob's cock to study. She gave me the finger and it was all I could do not to laugh when the teacher said, Carrie I'll need to see you after class. In the hall outside of class I saw Janice and asked, so we still on for Friday night, she said I hope so and I was going to ask you the same question. I said Janice, I'm looking forward to it. She smiled and said Mike, for heavens sake call me Jan. Then she said, I hope you are ok after the accident and your new ride is awesome. I said Jan, I'm fine and thanks. We parted ways and I thought shit, I could like that bitch.

At lunch Cole and Sam we're together with Sam's friends and I went over and said, dude meet me at the car at 2:30. He looked at me and asked, do you always come and go as you please? Sam laughed and said Cole he runs the place and pretty much has a free hand, but he will sign out of last period a lot. There are rules and he respects them. Cole just shook his head and said, fine. The afternoon brought a change in the weather with some much needed storms. Cole was waiting for me inside the building and said, golf was off and that I should work out and that Sam and one of his guys would be getting us a ride home. We might be hanging out at Sam's. I said, great as I'm working out and just call me and I'll pick you up at Sam's. He said that's perfect. I was glad to workout here at school.

At the workout room, I changed clothes and started my usual workout and damn it was an effort. JJ was there and so was Jim. After the workout I was a sweaty mess and was just sitting in front of my locker and Coach Weston asked if I had a minute after I cleaned up? I said sure and stripped and threw a towel around my waist and jumped into the shower. I dried off and jumped on the scale and almost shit, it read 225. I had gained 5 pounds. I dressed and went into the office and coach said Mike, have a seat. I sat down and asked, so what's up? He said well that usual workout was tough today. I said, yes it was and what was tougher were the numbers on the scale. Coach, I got this. Mike, I have no doubt and that's not the reason for the chat. So what's with QB1? I laughed and said, that immature dude that plays QB for you? Coach said, well I guess that could be the same guy, but same question. Coach, since Spring break he doesn't know where he wants to go to school and I'm done with helping him and he doesn't ask. I'm hearing he wants back at VT. They haven't asked and I haven't offered an opinion. Coach, I simply don't care but if he fucks up football here next year I'll kick his ass all over route 51. Coach said, well do me a favor and give him a month then kick his ass. I want him focused long before camp. Then he said, your board meeting was interesting. I said well what did you find interesting? He said well how you pull strings, get what you want and have squeaky clean hands. I laughed and said, I had no idea a compensation package was on the agenda for me. But it is nice not living off my trust allowance. Then he asked about the accident. I said, I'm lucky just a bump on the head. He said, please deal with Jim at some point. I smiled and said, just so you know we are not as close as we were. He said, fix that now get out of here, I'm sure you have multiple companies to run and he laughed.

I found JJ sitting at my locker and he said ok, now what? I said let's walk and we went to the stadium and I sat down in the top row and leaned against the press box wall and JJ said, so another special spot? I said, not really but this stadium is where it all started for me, so on occasion I just sit here. He said you are a nostalgic son of a bitch. I laughed and said well I am a son of a real bitch. He simply shook his head and asked, so what's up with Coach? I said Jim and his head. JJ said, so now that's your responsibility as well? I said welcome to the life and times of Michael James Simmons, Jr. MJ, that's not funny and you need to tell the coach to run his team. JJ, he does and multiple people will be on this. MJ how does he lead this them? JJ he does it because every one knows I have his back and yes it is a lot of stress and you haven't seen Western PA football yet. He laughed and said, dude I played football in Texas. I said, JJ it is that intense and more concise as we are one county and we play by the rules. Once the states start team out East have kids from 5 states on the team. We are different here and look at the NFL players who played here. They all walk on water here, regardless of where they played, even today. Ok, so what we doing about Jim, I said nothing for now, let's get out of here. Oh, what are your thoughts about the weekend? He said MJ, I don't really care, I just want you to relax. He looked at his phone and said, shit I need to get to Dee's house, we have a few hours alone. I said have fun and call me tonight.

I just sat there enjoying the sun as the storms had passed. I laughed and thought if the storms in my life would only pass so quickly. I picked up the phone and called Jan. Once again her brother answered and I said, hi this is Mike is Jan around? He laughed and said, damn that was quick. I asked, how so? Mike very few people call her Jan. I was shocked and said, so how long is your leave? He said another week. I said, great I'm hoping to meet you. He said, well I have read and heard so much about you I feel the same way. By the way I'm Jack. Let me look for her. Oh ask for her cell number. I laughed and said absolutely. She got on the line and I said Jan, I need a favor? She laughed and said a favor already? I said, please hang up and call me back on your damn cell phone? She slammed the phone down and I thought well that's the end of that. I started for the car and my phone rang and it was a number I did not recognize so I answered with, hi spoiled rich kid here. She said damn you can be an ass. I said, a lot of people say that about me, it's unintentional. Then she said Mike, Jack said to cut you a break as he is sure chasing after a chick is not something you are used to doing. I just laughed and said please tell him thanks. I did not want to offend you I just wanted your number in my phone so I could save it. Would you rather, I hold off on that till after Friday night? Mike, please relax, I don't bite unless you like that and I'm not a bitch. Just be the cool dude I see at school. I laughed said, damn I didn't know I was a cool dude. We talked about thing that we liked to do and school and it turned into a great drama free conversation. I told her about how dad selected the new ride and she laughed. Finally I said, please bump into me at school tomorrow and she laughed and I hung up.

I look at the sky and as the clouds appeared dark, I left the roof up and drove home. What I found there absolutely amazed me as there was a note from Ryan, apologizing for the condition of the house and saying dinner was in the refrigerator. Upstairs all the bedrooms were spotless with new sheets. Then my phone rang and it was Cole and he asked if I could pick him up? I said, I would be right there and that I would beep the horn when I got there as I did not want to come in. He laughed and said, fine. On the drive I was hoping it was a drama free event. I pulled in the driveway and hit the horn and Cole and Sam came out and they were both laughing. Sam asked, what did you say to Carrie in English as she was sent home for an obscene gesture? Sam I simply asked if she was unprepared for the quiz because she was spending too much time sucking Rob's cock. Both guys laughed and Cole got in the car and Sam said Mike, you know you have a room in her head. I said tell her to move Rob in as I'm done. He shook his head and said MJ, I doubt that.

Back at home Cole looked around and said damn, someone cleaned this place. I said yes and there are new sheets and cleaned rooms and dinner in the refrigerator. I grabbed a beer and went outside and was checking on the various boxes in my head. Sam's comment about Carrie hit me and I wanted to check that status. I was sure that I didn't give a shit and yet that rude comment today, indicated I was kidding myself. There were great memories and yet not many feelings. I thought about the last time we had sex and damn it was just me getting my rocks off, nothing special at all. I finished my beer and went inside to find Cole heating dinner, which was the lemon chicken thing with wild rice and a salad. We sat eating and I did not ask but he seemed to be doing better. He said Mike, Sam and I would like to go to Nemacolin. I laughed and said well you know how to spend money, let me check on a condo there. We can bring beer and be remote, but this is a low profile deal. He smiled and said thanks. Dad came in and we had a good time. Cole said he needed to call Jay and he went to his room. Dad, asked how I was holding up and I told him about the Carrie event. He said Mike, you owe her an apology. I simply shook my head and said dad, Cole and I cooked so you need to clean up and I went to my room. Just a little pissed.

It was all school work and I was on a mission now as it would be focus and work and to do it better than anyone else. I spent time on Spanish and History and then started on the CMU stuff. Finally, around 10:00 I went and checked on Cole who was sound asleep, I turned out his light. As I was getting ready for bed, JJ called and said he would be running again tomorrow. I said, JJ that's great and that I'm on a tear about everything. He simply said good night. I climbed into bed and was quickly asleep.

It was up before the alarm and I woke Cole and put coffee on. Soon enough we were running and again it was great having JJ. Back inside dad was drinking coffee and he and asked, how I was? I said dad, I'm focused and intense and it's not a phase, so I'm good and buckle up. He laughed and said, shit football mode in May. I said, Cole let's go or we will be late. On the way Cole said Mike, if Nemacolin is too much we can do something else. I said Cole, relax it will be low keyed and no fancy shit. He said Mike, that's perfect.

School was school and Carrie was nowhere to be found. There was a Spanish quiz and it went well. At lunch I told JJ about Nemacolin and he said, pleas get a condo, I smiled and said no shit. I went to the one afternoon class and signed out for work. When I got to the office, Ruth said Mike, your dad has asked if you were here yet, you should stop in to see him. He has been agitated all day. I said thanks and stuck my head in his office. Dad looked at me and said Michael, close the door and sit. I sat down and just looked at him. He was quiet for a while and I could see he was pissed. Then he said, so what the fuck is your problem? I replied, my problem is that for some strange reason, you have a problem. He said Michael, cut the crap. I said, ok there are three adults in Cole's life and a head doctor and guess who the fuck had to fix it. Just tell me which one of the three of you had a fucking clue? Mike that unfair. I said, I'll apologize for trying to hold the adults accountable, if can tell me one fucking way the three of you helped. Then I said, I'll deal with the damn head doctor on Friday. I just sat there and looked at him. Dad was a bit thunderstruck and remained silent. I said, I have an appointment, I'll see you at home. I left slamming the door. I just leaned against the door jam and took a big breath.

I was in my office and dad came in closed the door and sat down. I said dad, i might have been out of line but seriously. He said Mike, you are in Cole's head and he worships you and in fact you are in each other's ass. So you have the most influence. With that comes a responsibility, so dealing with what you created should be your responsibility. Seriously, I didn't react him, the three of you dumped him on me and we got close. I respectfully ask you guys to deal with that. Michael, the last time you respectfully did anything you were in diapers. I laughed out loud and said are we going to fight all day, I do have a meeting with Dillon and Mason. Well you aren't going anywhere until we resolve this. I said fine and picked up the phone and asked Ruth to inform Dillon and Mason that I have a conflict and will be unavailable. I hung up, looked at dad and asked does that make you happy? Dad just glared at me so I asked, what do you want? He took a deep breath and said for you to stop blaming me and giving me a hard time over Cole and a general change in your attitude. I said, well you are not off the hook until you get Megan and Jay focused on their kid. As for my attitude, there will be a change as I'm gaining weight, out of shape and stressed beyond belief. Yes I am seeing Dr. Drennan tomorrow. What you will find is a very focused guy, with a short fuse for drama and incompetence. Mike, you are not giving an inch. This is like fighting with your mom. I screamed, DON'T YOU DARE BRING HER INTO THIS. For Christ sake, just take some shit off my plate. There is Cole, Ray, Megan, Jay and now you, all relying in me. There is simply nothing more for me to give. Dad was quiet again and I sat patiently waiting for a reply. I was getting madder by the minute and I finally said dad, how about you take care of everyone over 18 and I'll deal with the rest. As for my attitude, you will have to deal with me till I'm back in shape.

This went on for a while and I said dad, this is a shitty place to have this unusually testy conversation. What if we hug, drive home, calm down, eat dinner and then continue this in your office? Dad didn't say a word, just got, gave me a hug and left my office. I just sat there thinking, I guess he agreed. Thankfully every one was gone and in the parking lot I noticed dad's car was gone so I drove home and was a little surprised not to see dad's car. That concerned me as he left before me. Cole wasn't home from practice so I grabbed an iced tea and went outside. Sitting in my chair, I realized dad was right, I was fighting too hard about this and I was indeed acting like mom. Just then dad came in stuck his head outside and said Mike, dinner please come in. Dinner was Cole and Japanese takeout and I simply sat down and Cole kept looking at us, but didn't say a word. We finished a civil dinner and dad said guys, I cooked so clean up and I need to see both of you in my office. Cole looked at me and asked, what the fuck? I said, it more about me but your guess is as good as mine. We we finished cleaning up and Cole knocked on the door jam and dad said, guys please come in and have a seat.

We were both handed a scotch and ice and dad said Cole, Mike and I had a nasty conversation this afternoon that caused him to cancel a business meeting. Cole, the fight was about how the adults in your life seem to take you for granted, yes that includes me. Mike was way to nasty in that argument and we hurt each other deeply. Him and I will discuss that later, I wanted you to know that the three of us love you and will help make whatever you want happen. As with Mike, what you do with that help is up to you. We all want you to be happy. I get that MJ is your go to guy, but I'm here for whatever you need, however just like with Mike I will try not to hover. Cole said, thanks Mike and that is appreciated but I get the sense the rest of this needs to be between you and MJ. As far as I am concerned the rest is Rule 6. Dad and I laughed and Cole left closing the door.

Once Cole was gone, I said dad, I'm sorry. He laughed and said fuck you should be, that was a brutal attack today. I said dad, from my point of view you attacked me at work and that was totally out of line. Dad, I need to get past this and I promise never to fight like that again, well with you. Thanks for including Cole and for what you told him, it matters a lot to both of us. Dead said Michael, I'm sorry as well but that passive aggressive shit you started yesterday really pissed me of and I knew you were furious about something so I forced it. Simply know that I love you and am proud of you and am always available to talk things through. We hugged and he said so get out of here and go do Mike things. I smiled, grabbed a cigarette, lit it and said, well there are Mike things to do but they can wait till we finish our drinks. Dad laughed and said don't start with the cigarette thing again. I took a drag and put it out and we were back to normal just chatting. I finished my drink, gave dad a big hug and went to my room.

I called JJ and we chatted about the weekend and he was reluctant about Nemacolin being too "special". I said dude, think Ohio Pyle. JJ laughed and said, oh that's much better. I asked about Dee and he said things continued to be good and that they were very comfortable together and there isn't ever much drama. I laughed and asked, how he managed that? He said it's simple we are not competitive. Oh, we don't fight over silly shit. I shook my head and said thanks. When we hung up I called Nemacolin and asked about a Saturday night stay at a condo. There was a lengthy discussion about rates and a security deposit because of my age. We settled on the rate and an outrageous security deposit and a two bedroom condo was reserved. I was really an expensive couple of hours and it was a 1:00 check in and an 11:00 AM check out.

I was trying to do some CMU stuff and Sam called. We talked for a while and he was thrilled about the weekend plans. I told him in was considering whitewater rafting and a low keyed event and that there would be no fancy dinners or much shit at the resort. Then Sam threw me for a loop and asked if we could stop at Falling Water? I said sure, do we need to go inside and he said, nope I just want to see the outside. He said MJ, Carrie isn't talking to me over this trip. She want to know why I'm taking your side? I said Sam, there isn't a side to take, it's over. He laughed and said, well if you say so. I said, I'll see you in school. I went downstairs and said goodnight to dad, stuck my head in Cole's room and asked, how he was doing and he said, really looking forward to getting away. I said great, so am I and I went and took a long shower and jumped into bed and had the need to rub one off and to my amazement I worked my cock thinking about what Jan would look like naked. I licked the cum off my hand and abs and fell asleep.
