New Note: Well, I know I explained everthing pretty well in Chapter 12, but I needed to say not to expect the next chapter out as fast as this one. This chapter was almost totally written before I sent Chapter 12, so it didn't take long to finish. Thanks a lot to all of you that have written me. It helps me to write faster. Enjoy the story. md_life@yahoo.com ~MikeD.
Jess thanks for the help, I couldn't have done it without you. Alec, I miss you and I love you.
Chapter 13
Mat sighed...his cheek hurt like hell. Oh well it could have been worse. He mentally berated himself for being so stupid. He should have known to not let the jerk get so close to him. Oh well. He lied back in the bed and wished that the doctor would let Brian, Jenna, and Kevin in. He really needed to talk to Brian. Mat knew exactly what would be going through Bri's head right about now.
Right then the door flew open and Cynthia and Alex came running in. They stopped just short of the bed and Alex timidly asked, "Can we hug you, Matty?"
Mat's heart absolutely melted in the face of those innocent words and he smiled at them, even though it made his cheek burn even more and said, "Climb on up here and give me a BIG hug!"
They both broke into large smiles and climbed onto the bed, Mat adjusted them until he had one on either side of him and hugged them tightly in return. He looked up and saw Kevin, Jenna, and Brian at the door smiling at the group on the bed.
Jenna and Kevin came forward first and Kevin looked at Mat's cheek and winced. "Bet it hurts like the devil right now doesn't it?"
Mat grinned, winced then nodded, "Yeah I'd say so."
Jenna gently stroked Mat's cheek then said smiling, "Guess that means you don't want to leave with us tomorrow to go to Switzerland."
"I never said that!" Mat said hastily, "I'm just fine. Let's go now."
Jenna laughed and said, "That's what I thought. I talked to Mom already and she's rather....upset with Dad right now, but she sent you her love. And we can't leave today cause of the bump on your head and I need to take the munchkins here to the airport in an hour to meet Uncle Doug. He'll take them back to LA with him and get them all set up in school."
Mat nodded looking down at the two children that were holding onto him tightly and started to laugh when he saw that they were both already asleep.
"I don't think that they will give you any trouble." Mat said ignoring the pain in his cheek.
Jenna then nudged Kevin and they both backed out the door while Jenna said, "Well I'm gonna go watch for JC or he'll come barreling in here with no thought on his mind but getting to you Mat."
Mat watched in amusement as they left then turned to Brian who was waiting patiently at the foot of the bed.
Brian silently moved up so that he was sitting on the bed, careful not to disturb the sleeping children, then gently stroked Mat's bruised cheek in a touch so light Mat barely felt it.
Brian stared into Mat's eyes then whispered, "Oh baby, I'm sorry that I broke my promise."
Mat said just as quietly, but just as intensely, "Bri, you aren't superhuman. It's not your fault."
Brian touched a finger to Mat's lips to stop him from talking, "I know, darlin, but that doesn't make feel any less horrible, that he hurt you. I love you, if I could I would keep you safe from all harm, but I can't and somehow I have to learn to except that, although it is very hard."
Mat smiled at Brian ignoring his cheek, "I understand, baby. I mean I have a little bump and a big bruise, but you have this scar on your chest. And it doesn't make it better that I didn't even know you at that time. All I want is to be able to comfort you when your down and be there for you when you need me." Mat grinned again, "Now that we are all choked up with this mush, I want you to lean over here and give me a little kiss, to make us both feel better."
Brian grinned and leaned over the sleeping children and lightly kissed Mat on the lips. Before he pulled back he whispered, "I love you baby."
Mat smiled and said just as softly, "I know."
Jack leaned back in his hospital bed and smiled broadly at Brad, "Well now my boy, that sounds like a very good plan to me. Blackmailing Mat and Jenna into coming to you voluntarily, very interesting. But, it doesn't matter to Jenna, this is the only flaw, you can't expose anything about Kevin except that he has a girlfriend and that isn't exactly a big deal."
Brad smiled slightly, "I've thought of that, but you know what? I don't think that it matters very much, either she'll come and I get both or she doesn't and I still get Mat. I have to admit I he is my ultimate goal. I mean just the thought of breaking him, tearing his spirit and will to fight into shreds..." Brad voice had become feverish and he was breathing heavier and had to reach down to adjust his cock in his pants.
Jack laughed, "I can see your real excited about this boy. When are you going to put it into effect?"
Brad smiled ever-so-slightly, "Tonight, after all of the rest of them have gone back to the hotel, I'll get into Mat's room and have a little "talk" with him. Hell I might not even wait. I might take him tonight then blackmail him, plus I'll have the added edge of planting in his stupid brain that Brian probably won't want him now that I have had him."
Jack smiled, "You make sure to let me know what happens and if I can help at a later date. If you manage to corral Jenna too, I might be the first one to buy her. She's beautiful, even if she is a little bitch. Reminds me of her mother." Jack's voice trailed off as he got lost in thought. He found that he had a massive boner now as well.
"Until tonight Jack. I may stop by and visit you after I have "spoken" to Mat."Brad said laughing.
"Until tonight, Brad."
Jenna and Kevin had just left to go to the airport with the kids, he'd see her again tomorrow, but it was late so she and Kevin had said goodnight when they left with the kids. Mat lay in his bed, an arm wrapped around Brian who was sleeping next to him in the bed, thinking about life in general. He felt oddly, almost as if there was an itch right between his shoulder-blades. He remembered when he and Jenna had stayed with Brad and his family for the last time. He had felt the same way the entire day before Brad had made his move on Mat that night. The memory of waking up with Brad tying his hands to the bed and telling him if he didn't stay quiet that he would beat the fuck out of him. God, he didn't know what was wrong, it was probably just paranoia, he thought and gently shook Brian awake.
"Baby, you need to get up." Mat whispered in Brian's ear.
"Mmmm, I don't wanna." Brian muttered as he snuggled closer to Mat.
Mat laughed softly and said, "Bri, you need to go back to the hotel baby. You can't stay here tonight and you know it."
Brian raised his head looking at Mat, "Sweety, I don't want to leave you. I can stay right over there in that chair."
Mat looked at Brian, "I wouldn't mind Bri, but we have an early flight tomorrow to Switzerland so its up to you on whether you wanna sleep in a bed or a chair. I love you no matter what you decide to do Bri."
Brian contemplated the chair without much enthusiasm and sighed deeply, "I guess I'd better go then. I don't want to though sweety."
"I know, Bri."
Brian slowly climbed out of the bed and stood next to it, looking down at Mat. "I love you baby." he said softly.
"I know Brian." Mat said lost in Brian's beautiful eyes.
Brian leaned down and softly kissed Mat, slowly deepening it as Mat responded. Brian pulled away and kissed Mat's closed eyes, one after the other, then lightly kissed Mat's lips again.
"Goodnight, baby." Brian whispered with his lips still gently touching Mat's.
Mat managed an inarticulate moan with his eyes still closed and he felt Brian pull away, his eyes opened in time to see Brian blow him a kiss as he walked out the door.
Mat lay back in the bed and smiled at how happy he was, he couldn't imagine his life now without Brian there to love him and protect him. He looked over on the chair then grinned, knowing that Brian would probably come back soon. His coat was on the chair. He heard the door opening and smiled, thinking it was Brian. He looked through the dim lighting in the room to the door. Mat noticed that this person was not Brian right away, he wasn't tall enough although he was as muscular as Bri.
"Did you need something?" Mat asked thinking that someone had gotten lost.
Then he heard the lock on the door snick shut and a very familiar voice saying, "Not really, I have never forgotten anything about you Mat."
Mat leaped out of the bed opposite the intruder, ripping out his IV tube along the way. He opened his mouth to scream....
To Be Continued....
