Chapter 7

Then the phone rang, it was Michelle. "Hey guys, how about you pack my stuff and all, load up the car and come over here for lunch. We'll head home and you get to clean up your place. OK?"

"Sounds OK to me, I'll tell Red. We'll be there shortly".

I helped Red get all their stuff together and carried it up to her red Porsche.

When it all was loaded Red walked up to me and grabbed me for a hug and in between kisses "Peter thank you ... for a really wonderful ... and your understanding and caring ... Don't be shy after you've moved in ... we are home most nights ... because if you don't ... and we have to come ... after our "boy toy" you could be in serious ... trouble..."

"I promise ... thank you for coming up here ... for trusting me ... for a really great weekend..."

We finally disengaged and Red followed me to the Judge's place. I was making sure of my speed and waved at Jameson along the way.

When we got to the our destination, we found my good friend Max the Judge in deep embrace with Michelle but that ended as soon as both of us got out of our cars.

Max did seem just a bit embarrassed but I just winked at him and all seemed to be good.

We had a nice lunch, something that Michelle had prepared because I think that "His Honor" is more of a microwave kind of guy but I could be wrong.

There was another "hug fest" as the ladies were getting ready to leave. I reminded Red about Jameson and she laughed. "We know all about him, he stopped us on the way in on Friday. We just batted our eyes at him and jiggle the boobs just the right amount and we got off with a very stern warning. (laughing) The poor guy had a hard time trying to hide his hard-on. But I promise, I'll be good, he's too easy to take advantage off. We'll give him another "treat" next time we come up."

"I hope there will be a next time." I smiled, remember what you said to me earlier. Well the same goes for me. I just might have to kidnap the two of you, tie you up, throw you into the back of my car and bring you up here so the Judge and I can ravage you."

"Hmm, Michelle might like that but don't you even think of trying it with me buster if you want to ever pro-create."

By that time Red had a pretty hard grip on my you know what and it was tough for me not to wince.

She let go, gave me another kiss "You've been warned".

Then Red went to say goodbye to Max. Michelle gave me a hug and kiss. She also groped my dick and balls but not as firm as Red had whispering between kisses "I want more of this boy toy".

Then they got into car and took off.

The Judge looked at me "Come in for another beer, we have to talk".

"Peter, I want to thank you for a most wonderful weekend. I think I needed this. I'm finally able to move on. (chuckling) I doubt that I will go out and chase women but one never knows. I owe you for being willing to share...".

"Hold it right there Max, I don't own those ladies. They are very free spirited and do whatever they please. So it pleased Michelle to try to get you out of your funk. Looks like she succeeded. I'm happy for you. They did the same for me. I'm lucky to have them not only for their great professional abilities but for their friendship. I have a pretty good idea that sooner or later you'll get another weekend with her."

We chatted some more about local politics and stuff and then I said my goodbyes.

When I got to my place I tackled all the chores. There was a ton of laundry to do, dishes to wash and just a general cleaning.

Then I went out to take care of the boats and the patio furniture. As I was doing that, Bill Shannon came over and invited me for dinner. I was happy to accept. After this weekend, I really did not want to eat alone.

"Thanks Bill, I appreciate that. What should I bring – beer or wine?" "Beer will be just fine. See you in an hour."

We talked a bit more after dinner but then I excused myself claiming that I need to make an early start back to the city. When I got back, I grabbed a cognac without first warming the snifter and a cigar and sat outside staring into nothing.

All kind of crazy thoughts went through my head. There was Red's sad story and what made Michelle figure out what Max needed. Oh and the biggie, Monique. Was I really done with her? In many ways I missed her. I didn't realize it at the time but when Red grabbed my balls and squeezed them pretty hard, it brought back memories, good ones. Shit, I just don't know. Should I talk to Alice about this? Maybe not the right person. She really got upset with the breach of trust.

As I sat there, I was getting a bit depressed. Shit I missed the girls, I missed Monique. I missed my past life. Could there be more with the girls than just an occasional romp?

Right now life sucks. With that thought I started to have a few more drinks and eventually stumbled into bed, not having come to any sensible conclusion other than that I was drunk at that moment.

After a restless night, I got up early fixed a simple breakfast, cleaned up the last dishes. Made the usual check around the place. Turned on the alarm and got going back to the city.

On the way I stopped at a super market for groceries for the next few days.

It was kind of cool to hit the garage door opener and drive right into your living space. As started to unpack the groceries to put them into the cabinets and fridge I discovered a note from the girls.

"Welcome to your new home. Dinner at seven in our place".

Well that is nice, solved one problem of what to do for that tonight. I had brought some clothes from the lake and what I had in the car from the time I stayed at the hotel across from the office but I needed more plus there were some other personal things I wanted from our house. So after lunch I called Red.

"Hey thanks for the dinner invite. I'll be there. But there is something I need you to do. I need the rest of my clothes, some books and music and my basic tool box from the house. Can you please set something up. I would very much prefer it if M was not there. She can have Carmen our house keeper watch that I don't take anything that she considers hers."

"I'll call her attorney and set it up. Michelle has to call him back anyway about the money deal from the company. Maybe by tonight we have some more info. Gotta go, bye".

I fired up my computer and started looking at all the info we had on hairy harry. There was something that interested me. He owned a small company that made some electronic parts for a number of different applications, even some custom stuff, for the Department of Defense and commercial application. Coming to think of it M's company had bought some stuff, I just never made the connection.

It looked like that he has this company fairly well insulated from his other stuff so it qualified as "small business" which gave him an advantage for government contracts. But we also found out that he's in trouble with DOD because of a too high rejection rate of his product during testing by the army prior to installation where ever. He's got a deadline to fix problem or they pull the contract. I was wondering if it was a management problem, that his workers were not happy and got sloppy on purpose. You know when you're pissed at the boss you do things not really thinking it through, that you could lose your job if he loses the contract.

The other issue was, that he put the company up for collateral for a loan to finance one of his other projects that stalled because the city and county were giving him a hard time with certain approvals. So right now the clock was ticking and he had not much time left.

I had a friend at the bank that held the loan and I called him and asked what it would take to buy up that note. He was kind of surprised that I knew about it. "Sam, you've got no idea how much info is floating around on the net if you just know where to look".

"I guess you are right. Well, let's see. We are quite sure he won't be able to pay it off. That other project is soaking up money like the desert rain. So if we foreclose, push him into chapter 11 or worse..." Let me think about that, talk to my bosses. Maybe we'll have something here. Might be the best for us to just get rid of that note." But why would you?" " Long story, maybe one day I'll tell you. Thanks, you can get me at this number..."

Next I called Greg, told that I'm back and needed to talk to him in person. "Hey, it doesn't look to good for golf tomorrow with the weather, how about you come to my office around ten." "Can we make it eleven, it won't take that long and I'll buy you lunch after we're done." "Deal, see you at eleven."

A few minutes later Red called. "Peter I just got off the phone with M's attorney, if you have time, you can go right now. M is still away some place but Carmen is there. I want you to take one of our paras with you for your protection and to run up my bill. She'll be over in five. Be nice to her. She's young and very impressionable – you know like Jack". Giggling, Red hung up and I went to pull my car out and wait for, I don't even know her name.

A nice looking young lady but not my type – too flat – came out of the office door and I assumed it was my escort. So I got out of the car, introduced myself and she told me her name was Sandra. It was kind of cute, she blushed a bit when I held the car door open for her.

We talked a bit on the way over to the house and I found out that she was only 3 months out of school and this was her first full time job.

When I walked up to the front door Carmen came storming out giving me a big hug "I'm so, so sorry Mr. Peter. I don't understand. You seemed to be so happy. Can't you fix it?"

"Easy Carmen, I'm sorry too but I don't think it can be fixed. Can we please just get this over with. It's hard on me too."

My clothes were actually all packed into boxes and stored in the garage. Hmm, did she have to make room in the closet for stuff from another guy? I guess that is a bit oh I don't know what. Anyway, I picked up a number of books, my collection of model train magazines and a whole bunch of CD's with my favorite music. I never had the time nor got the hang of it putting that stuff on an IPod.

I gave Carmen another hug when we left and saw there were a couple of tears in her eyes. Maybe mine too because I trouble seeing and almost ran the stop sign except for force of habit.

During dinner I started telling them my idea about Harry's company Michelle stopped me. "Stop, if you keep going I'm not only have to bill you for my time but also the cost of the meal. Serve me breakfast at eight tomorrow in your place and I'll still bill you for the time but you get the meal at your cost."

"You know you two are real ball busters but you have a deal."

"Can I come too, I won't charge for my time?"

"Sure, no problem. It's a date. Now how about some more wine?"

The evening ended with me going home horny and without any relief unless I took it into my own hand. Well M had trained me and even though there was no threat from her, I refrained from jerking off. I slept pretty good considering that it was a new place, different noises throughout the night very different from our house and even more so from the lake where at night all you hear is crickets and an occasional bull frog.
