The General's Son Chapter 11 -- Another Dance By E Walk (copyrighted by the author)
The next weekend found Chip and me at my parents' home with Alex. This weekend was homecoming for my old high school. We went to the game, which my high school won. The next day Tina conned Chip into taking her best friend to the homecoming dance. I got a call asking if I would be a chaperone since my parents were already going to be there. I went, but without a date.
It was fun seeing some old friends of both sexes. Chip watched my every move. When the emcee for the night started, she said, "Ladies and gentlemen, our queen for this year will be escorted to the throne by her big brother who was the homecoming king seven years ago. I present Miss Tina Nelson and her awesome brother, Troy Nelson."
I took Tina forward and faded away. Chip came over and kicked me in the leg. The emcee came forward and said, "The princess for this year is Leanne Golding who will be escorted by her date for the evening who just happened to be one of the crown princes of his homecoming last week along with his brother in Bellevue, Nebraska, Mr. Chip Miller."
Chip came back from escorting Lori and stood beside me and punched me with his elbow. He looked at me and said, "I'll get even with you."
"Hey, I had nothing to do with this. If you are not careful, I'll ship you off to your parents for the rest of the year."
The king and the prince were announced and after the royalty danced with their counterparts. Tina came and got me and Leanne came to get Chip. Leanne said, "Chip, you are the best looking guy here except for maybe Troy. I guess it is good thing I am not into guys. I'd be proud to be seen with you anytime or anywhere."
It was almost midnight when Chip came into our garage apartment. He took a shower and lay on his side of the bed. Finally he said, "Troy did you know anything about what was going to happen tonight? I felt like a hick. Everyone was dressed in tuxedoes but me. I just had my suit on. That's not all. Leanne told me she wasn't into guys and to make things even worse, the King came and tried to put the make on me. What bothers me most is that he said he had always been in love with you."
I pulled Chip close and said, "Chip, nothing ever happened between me and Andy. He was a younger brother of the biggest stud in my graduating class. In fact, I think his brother has five children already. I think I was like the big brother he never had because Randy was always chasing and making out with all of the skirts in town."
I continued, "Chip, don't you understand? It is not the clothes that make the person. You know what. My parents and I decided you were the best looking young man at the dance tonight. Tina disagreed because she was holding out for Alex. Chip, you have to understand that you and Tim are both very handsome young men and are going to turn many people's knobs. You both need to learn to control the outside influences."
He rolled into my arms and just held me. "Your tongue has been bitten by the serpent's tongue in the Garden of Eden."
The next morning we got up and helped Tony with the chores. Alex joined us. Tina was helping in the kitchen.
We went to church and the Father came to me and asked if I would play the organ since the regular organist was ill. I did as asked. After church, Chip and I went back to Bellevue. Alex had his own car and would be coming back later.
When Chip and I checked in, Tim was waiting for us. "Troy you need to call your Mother and General Ryan."
I called my Mother first since we had just left her about two hours before. "Hi Mother, what is wrong?"
She didn't mince any words. "Troy, your Dad and I wanted to talk about selling the farm to Tony but we never had a chance. Would you have any problem with it? Tina will be going to college and your brother is okay with it. We are going to stipulate that that garage apartment is yours as long as you want it."
"Dad, are you on?" I asked
"Yep, I'm here," Dad answered.
"Mom and Dad, I think it would be wonderful. Of course you need to stipulate that Dad will help Tony when he can," Troy said.
"Tony has already asked me to help four hours a day if possible," Dad answered.
I thought for a minute, "Tony is a very astute businessman and will be good farm manager. He will be able to make the farm work.
My Dad came back on and said, "He has already hired a young couple to help him since Betsy is pregnant. I just hope he doesn't work himself into the grave."
"Dad, I think Tony will make sure that doesn't happen especially when the babies start popping out. Tony and Betsy will be very dedicated to their family just like you and Mother."
"Okay Troy, We'll keep you advised as to what is happening."
I called the Ryan residence. "This is Major Nelson. I had message to call General Ryan."
"Hi, Troy, this is Meg. Could you bring the Miller boys over to our quarters? My husband has some exciting news."
"Ma'am, they are both practically naked. Would you like them that way or with some clothes on?"
"It would probably be better if they had clothes on so I don't have a heart attack. The Youngs and the Allens will be here also," Mrs. Ryan answered.
I got the guys together and we got dressed in casual clothes. They both looked at me and I shrugged my hands and shoulders.
We arrived at the Ryan residence just as the Youngs and the Allens arrived. Alex was still dressed as we had seen him at the farm. When everyone was seated, General Ryan said, "I am retiring as of the 31st of December. I have inoperable cancer."
He continued, "I was scheduled to become the Air Force Chief of Staff. Since I am retiring, the President has nominated Tim and Chip's father to that position. General Young will be receiving his fourth star and take over this command on January 1st."
"General Allen will receive his 3rd star and become the new vice commander. We are going to retire to our home in Phoenix and enjoy life for as long as I can. Troy, everyone has already agreed that you will keep your position until you leave for school."
"Chip and Tim, your appointments to the academy have been confirmed. Scott and Alex are on hold pending the results of their ACT and SAT scores. It seemed that Troy coerced his guys into taking them last year and they must have done extremely well. I recommend that the rest of you Four Horsemen get your acts together and cream the test this year so there will be no doubts"
"Troy, we all know that you and Chip are very close and are always together as much as you can be. I take it there has never been anything sexual in your relationship."
Tim spoke up before I could answer. "General Ryan, I can honestly say that there has been no sexual contact between Chip and Troy. I sleep nude with these ugly ducklings at least half of the time. Other than a fatherly kiss there is no contact.
"Sir, I'm beginning to think that Troy doesn't know how to get a hard-on. Pardon my crassness, but he has made it clear that there will be no sex until Chip becomes of legal age. Gentlemen, you must all realize that Troy would never force himself on anyone. Our parents recognize that attribute -- or, why else would they have left us in his care?
"He is not dictatorial, but he makes us think through our decisions. He has a family that is very important to him -- just ask Alex. Troy would relieve Alex of a certain part of his anatomy if he ever hurt his sister. What is more, the two nephews think that the sun rises and sets on Uncle Troy and Uncle Chip. They always glue themselves to those guys."
Troy looked at Tim and shook his head. Tim said, "I apologize if I offended anyone but other than my parents, the first person I would go to with a problem would be Troy"
The room was stone quiet. General Ryan said, "Guys, I know what a great guy Troy is. I don't need to be convinced but I am concerned about some of the rest of you. Troy is going to land on his feet wherever he goes and whatever he does. It is the rest of you young men that I am worried about. He has tried to help you young guys and Tip and Ty to make your mark but he can only do so much. The rest is up to you guys. Just don't any of you let him down. Oh by the way, Tim, Colonel Rodgers is about to receive his first star."
Tim looked at General Ryan, "Sir, I'm not dating Colonel/General Rodgers. I'm dating his daughter. She is probably less impressed by rank than I am. Rank is not important to anyone except in the military. People and how they treat others is more important. The important thing is to show that we can make a difference in other people's lives."
I stood and said, "Sir, I need to get these guys home so they can get ready for tomorrow. Thank you for sharing the good news and the bad news tonight."
Chip, Tim, and I left. No one talked on the way home. When Chip and I got into bed, Tim joined us. "Guys, I apologize for loosing it tonight."
I pulled Tim close and to me and said, "Tim, you could have done major damage to your father's career. Need I say more? You need to think before you talk sometimes."
Tim started to get tears in his eyes, "Troy, I am sorry."
I just held the two guys and we went to sleep.
Everything was going smoothly. The Allens had invited everyone for Thanksgiving. My parents were impressed with the General Quarters. Tina stayed with Elena and my parents, my brother, and his wife stayed with us. The twins slept with the guys and me.
The rest of the guys took the ACTs and SATs. Chip and Tim had already maxed them and the others all did extremely well.
At Christmas, General and Mrs. Miller returned for the holidays. They had the VIP guest quarters on base -- thank goodness for Lauren, because we were busy going to farewell parties for General Ryan and welcoming parties for General Young. Right after the New Year, the guys and I flew to Washington, D. C. for the change of command ceremony when General Miller became the Chief of Staff of the Air Force.
It was during this trip that we met the President and a bunch of dignitaries. The day before we retuned to Offutt the guys turned 18. Chip crawled into bed and held me and rubbed me all over, "Only one-half of the equation to go and then you are all mine."
I looked at him and said, "What if I change my mind?"
"You do that and you will be sore from the operation I'm going to perform. You'll probably die from loss of blood," Chip glared.
"Oh boy, I guess I forgot to warn you. I don't have any blood I only have ice water in my veins." I grabbed Chip and pulled him close. "Remember, turkey, I'm an old man. I could have a heart attack. After all I have been around for nearly a quarter of a century. I'll probably have a beard as long as Rip Van Winkle before you attain the other half of the equation and then you won't be able to find my private parts."
Chip laughed, "All the better to hide my man when I am making him feel good."
We were laughing when Tim came in and asked what was so funny. We told him and he started to laugh. "Geez, you must have a bunch of those spermy things running around in here." Tim said as he caressed my testicles."
"For someone who is straight, you sure do like to touch. You are a lecherous old man," I challenged.
"I'm not old. I'm just jealous of your sexual apparatus," Tim pouted.
I hugged both guys.
