This is a purely fictional story of what if...

Len was up early the next morning and decided to take the opportunity to
check out the exercise facility that the resort offered.  He quietly
dressed in his shorts and shoes and headed out the door.  He was alone as
he worked out and enjoyed feeling the burn in his muscles that had been
missing over the past three weeks. After a long sweaty workout, Len went up
front and grabbed a local paper for him and Marc to scan the local housing
listings.  As he returned to the room, Marc was there watching the
television.

	"Where have you been, Len?"  Marc said as he saw Len enter the
room.

	"Oh I went to work out. I sure have been missing it. I got us a
local paper and there seems to be quite a large real estate section here."
Len said as he separated out the home listings from the rest of the large
Sunday paper.

	"Hey, do we want a new or already lived in house?" Marc asked.

	"I was thinking new house myself or something fairly new.  You know
we really need to find something that is move-in ready even though I can
fix a few things here and there." Len said.

	"Wow, I was expecting the houses to be way more expensive than
this!" Marc said as he scanned the ads and circled a couple that looked
interesting.

	"Yeah they aren't too bad. Hell, houses in St. Louis are this much
out in the suburbs.  So, are we for sure going to call this home or are we
going to see the other towns first before deciding?"

	"I guess we will check these out.  The gay community here seems to
be rather vibrant plus I think Key West is just too far away and doesn't
offer the new home we are looking for. Maybe we can buy a vacation condo or
something down there later." Marc said.

	"Yeah, we are barely even going to put a dent in our account with
these prices that I am seeing here."  Len said as he was getting excited.

	"Here let's call this agent that the guy at the front desk gave us
and see if he is available to show us something today or at least in the
next couple of days." Marc said as he found the paper where the number was
written.  The agent, Jim Augusta, answered the phone on the third ring.
Marc explained how he got the number and their situation. Jim said on the
phone that he would be available to show them something that afternoon
about 1 and would meet them out front as he knew where they were staying.

After hanging up the phone, Marc and Len headed back to the area they were
the night before and found a nice place for a Sunday brunch.  They ate and
excitingly talked about what they had in mind for their new house.  When
they arrived back at the resort, the guy at the front desk told them that
the agent had a change of plans and would be there at 2 as he was
researching the homes available.  This gave the two time to catch some rays
at the nice pool area before having to leave.  Neither were shy as they
undressed and headed to the pool. Marc coated himself in sunscreen as he
was fair complexioned.  Len just put on a little as he was still fairly
dark.  The two enjoyed the warm sun as they relaxed and even had a nice
drink.  They did notice a few older men had joined them as the afternoon
wore on.

After an hour or so of soaking in the rays, the two headed back to the
suite to shower and get dressed to see what the agent had for them to view.
Promptly at 2, the two went to the front lobby where the guy was talking to
a nice tall young gentleman who was casually dressed.

	"You must be Marc and Len?" Jim said as he stuck out his hand.

	"Yes, we are. I am Len and this is Marc," Len said as he shook the
agent's hand as did Marc.

	"Well, are you two ready to begin your new home search? Larry here
has filled me in.  You must be the luckiest two guys around these days. How
does it feel?" Jim asked as he showed them to his car.

	"Really, Jim, it is just now sinking in," Marc said.

	"Yeah, Larry informed me that you guys had it sort of rough before
this all happened." Jim said as he pulled out of the parking lot.

	"That is putting it rather mildly. We didn't have shit before we
hit it big." Len said as he looked out the window and was soaking in all
the sites as they pasted.

	"I am first taking you to a rather unique house that is in the
heart of where you guys might like. It is an older home but I think you
will like the area and just the whole vib of the community."  Jim said as
he neared the property.

Marc and Len got out of the car as Jim pointed at the house in the
neighborhood. He opened the door to the refurbished older home.  The two
liked the neighborhood as it was in the heart of the gay neighborhood that
was on the upswing, but the space seemed cramped and the bedrooms were
small and had very little closet space.  There were a few features they
liked as Jim told them he just wanted them to see what was out there first.

	"I don't know Jim. We both were thinking new construction. The
house is great and all but we really want to see something a little newer
and more modern."  Marc said.

	"We are going there next.  I just thought maybe you would like to
see something that was close to the action first before deciding." Jim said
as they drove down the interstate.

Marc and Len bombarded Jim with a lot of questions on the gay scene as Jim
had lived and worked in the area for the past 4 years.  Jim pulled into a
gated community North of Fort Lauderdale that was away for the traffic.
Marc and Len's eyes lit up as they drove past the large homes in the area.

	"You know that most of the residents here are either professionals
or retired. Keep that in mind, plus you see how far we are away from the
action."  Jim said as he drove to a recently completed new home.

	"Now this is what I am talking about."  Marc said as he saw the new
home.

	"It has 6 bedrooms, I think and 5 bathrooms, at least that is how
it is listed.  Shall we go in and take a look?" Jim said as he opened the
front door.

	"Oh hell yeah, dude. This is a house. How big is this place?" Len
asked.

	"Let me see. It says 5300 square feet heated and cooled. The asking
price is 1.2 million." Jim said as he could see the excitement in both
their faces as they entered.  "Keep in mind, I have two others for us to
see today. One is furnished as I understand that you guys will have to buy
all new furniture."

	"Dude this place is awesome." Marc said as he looked around the
spacious house. He found the master suite on the first floor with a large
master bath. "I don't know about the master on the first floor as we would
rarely even go upstairs then."

	"Well you could consider adding a work out room up there possibly."
Jim said.

	"Yeah I definitely want that." Len said as he explored the house.

After the short tour, the two were impressed by the new home but wanted to
see the fully furnished one next.  Jim made the short drive to the next
house and showed them it.  They loved the house and the layout but weren't
real crazy about the furnishing as it didn't seem their style. So Jim took
them to the last place which was a little closer to Fort Lauderdale but
still a good 20 minute drive to the beach and the hip area of the town.

Again the two lit up like little kids as they saw the fourth house that Jim
had for them to tour that day.  Jim had his camera that day as he took
pictures of all the places in case the two wanted to review them
afterwards.

	"Man, look at this place." Marc said as he was in awe. "How big and
how much, Jim?"

	"It says here 5450 square feet and a listing price of 1.5
million. This house has been sitting here for 2 months already and don't
think they have an offer yet." Jim said as he knew the two really liked the
large Floridian style home.

	"Look Marc, there is a pool, too!" Len said as he looked out the
back door.

	"That will be completed shortly, but other than that it is ready to
move-in." Jim said as he looked at the information sheet.

	"Let's see the bedrooms." Len said.

	"The master and three others are upstairs." Jim said as he led them
up the stairs to see the bedrooms.

	"This is hot dude." Marc said as he looked at the large master
suite with a balcony that overlooked the pool and patio area.

The two continued to look at the house and dreaming. They went room to room
checking out the whole house entirely. They were definitely interested in
this house as they loved all the features that the house had to offer. Now
they had to decide between the houses.

	"I can show you so more tomorrow if you would like."  Jim said.

	"Hey, you know, Jim. I am sure they are going to be similar to the
two that we really like. As for now, I think Len and I are pleased with the
two new ones unless you come up with something closer in." Marc said.

	"I will look but as far as new homes go. These are about as close
as you will find. I will look when I get to the office tomorrow morning."

Jim then took the two to his favorite restaurant near the ocean where they
dined and discussed the properties that they had seen earlier.  Marc did
mention during the course of their conversation if Jim knew a good interior
decorator that he could recommend to help them set up their possible new
place. Jim said he knew a young guy that was fresh out of college that
would be more than eager to help out the two.  Jim then drove the two back
to the resort and said he would check with them tomorrow.

Marc and Len were very excited as they sat the table in the suite and
hashed over the two houses.  After long debating, they agreed on the last
one but wanted to see it again before submitting an offer. Marc called his
parents and told them he had been house searching that day and to fill them
in on all the details as it had been a while since he had chatted with
them. Each brother had to talk to him and wanted to hear all about where
they were at.  Marc gave most of the details but left out the part that he
felt they didn't need to hear.

That night the sex was hot again as they seemed like newlyweds on their
honeymoon with lots of kissing and petting.  After the sex, the two just
laid in bed discussing and dreaming about their new house before both were
finally asleep.

The next morning Len woke Marc as both went to work out and were
continually talking about the house.  After working out and finding
something to eat, Marc called Jim requesting another tour of the last house
to solidify their choice.  Jim agreed to meet them at 11 at the resort.

Jim drove the two back to the last property.  He had a few more details and
told the two that the listing agent would meet them at the house to answer
any additional questions.  They exited the car and found the other agent
waiting inside.  The agent was a tall striking older lady who explained the
various amenities that the house had to offer. The two were impressed with
the wine storage area and the large appliances that the kitchen area had to
offer.  They loved the floors and the countertops that the kitchen offered
along with the breakfast area and large formal dining room.  They loved the
den that was off the kitchen that faced the large covered patio and pool.
The agent said there was an allowance for the finishing of the pool area to
the type of material that they could choose around the pool.  They then
toured the upstairs and was impressed with the large master suite with an
exercise room off to the side, which was small. They loved the master
bathroom with the large walkin shower.  They both smiled at each other as
they stepped inside to see how large it was.  Jim smiled as he knew what
they were thinking.

	"Well what do you think?" the other agent asked.

	"Would you mind if we had a private discussion for just a minute?"
Len said.

	"Sure take your time. This is a big decision for the two of you."
Jim said as he led the other agent downstairs and explained the situation
in full.  The other agent's eyes lit up as she wondered how two young men
could afford such a luxurious house but this explained it all.

Marc and Len sat down on the floor together and hashed out the whole
house. After five minutes or so, they asked if Jim could join them.

	"We will take it. How much do you think we should offer?"  Marc
asked.

	"Well, I would start at say, $1.45 million since this house has
been sitting here for two months. They will counter I am sure, but I have a
feeling we can come to an agreement."  Jim said.

	Marc, Len and Jim came back downstairs and found the agent in the
kitchen.  "Do we have a new buyer?" she asked.

	"Maybe. Do you mind if we fill out the paperwork and hand it to you
as we leave?" Jim asked.

	"Oh certainly. I will be in the other room and let you gentlemen
sign the papers." The agent said as she left them alone.

Marc and Len watched as Jim filled out the sales contract. They each signed
it.  Jim handed the contract to the other agent and she said she would
present it to the builder and have an answer shortly.  She told them to
check out the clubhouse as they left which they did and found a large work
out room and a big pool out back.

Jim then treated the two to a nice lunch at a local establishment that was
rather popular with the business crowd.  Marc and Len were glad that Jim
was showing them some of the out of the way places.  Jim dropped the two
off at the resort and headed back to the office.

	"I looks like we may have just bought ourselves a new house, dude."
Marc said.

	"Yeah, it is so fucking sweet, dude. Hey let's go check out the
beach today."  Len said as the two put on their new board shorts.

The two enjoyed the calm beach on a nice warm October afternoon.  It wasn't
real crowded but did join in a volleyball game near where they were
sitting.  They enjoyed the game as they did meet more people.  After the
game, they were invited by two guys there age to join them for a beer just
off the beach.  Marc and Len enjoyed the conversation with the other guys
and then left.  Marc then insisted that they really needed a reliable cell
phone each with long distance.  They found a national company on the way
back and each got a cool cell phone with all the bells and whistles.  The
company insisted on a large deposit in that they didn't have a permanent
address just yet.  They agreed but said in the next few days they might.
Marc and Len discarded their old phones.  Marc called and gave his parents
his new permanent number and told her he had made an offer on the house.
She was happy for them and wanted him to send pictures as soon as he could.

As Marc and Len came back to the resort, they saw Justin and Michael at the
bar.

	"You guys up for a little fun tonight?"  Justin asked.

	"Maybe another night dude. We are sort of tired." Len said.

	"Well just call us. It will be hot." Michael said.

Marc and Len didn't lie as they were beat from their day at the beach. They
just sat in bed until Len was sound asleep before any action could take
place.  Marc turned off the TV and was asleep in no time too.

Len was again up first and drug Marc out of bed to go work out before they
started their day.  Len loved the facility and really liked seeing Marc
work out some.  After a long workout and grabbing a small bite to eat, they
headed to their room to plan the day.  Marc called Jim on his new cell
phone to give him his and Len's new number in case he needed it.  Jim said
he hadn't heard anything yet but to keep their cell phones on just in case.

Marc and Len drove to a local furniture store to get ideas on the style and
type of furniture.  They were amazed at the variety the place offered and
were overwhelmed by the choices. They both knew that they definitely need
the assistance of a designer.  After they ate lunch, Marc cell was ringing.
It was Jim with at least some news.  He told them that the builder had
countered with $1.465 million. Jim told the two he expected it as Marc put
Jim on speaker phone for both guys to hear as they pulled into a parking
lot to talk.  Marc asked Jim if he thought it was a fair price.  Jim said
he did and it was actually lower than what he had expected.  Marc then
asked if they could come over and sign the counter.  Jim gave them address
and they plugged it into the GPS that led them right to the office.

Jim was waiting on them up front as he saw them pull into the parking lot.
He led them back to his office where they signed the counter and faxed it
right to the agent.

	"Congratulations, you two are now the owners of a beautiful new
home." Jim said.

	"That was easy.  When is it actually ours?"  Marc said.

	"Well generally it takes a couple of weeks but since you guys are
paying cash, I really don't know. Here let me make a quick call and check
it out." Jim said as he talked to a closing agent he knew.  He hung up the
phone.  "Well they said depending on when they got all the paper work in
maybe Friday at the earliest but not to count on it but for sure sometime
next week at the latest."  Jim said.

	"Friday or Monday would be awesome." Len said.

	"Yeah, we are at the resort until Friday night. I guess we could
stay an extra few days if necessary.  Now, Jim, you said you knew a
designer that could help us out." Marc said.

	"Oh yeah, let me find his number. You will love working with him.
I have seen a couple of his works and they should be just what you are
looking for." Jim said. "Oh here it is. His name is Todd Bingham and he
works out of his apartment for now.  You mind if I call him?"

	"No, go right ahead." Marc said as he and Len listened to Jim
describe what he needed.  Todd told Jim he would love to meet them and see
the house as he was currently caught up and had nothing working. Jim handed
the phone to Marc who told him the style they were interested in but really
wanted his full input as they had a virtual clean slate to work with.
"Todd wants to know when we can see the house again." Marc said as he
covered the phone.

Jim called the other agent as Marc continued to talk to Todd.  Jim then
told them they could go whenever they wanted that she would set things up
for them to get in the front gate and the house would be open. Marc relayed
the information to Todd as Jim did his best to give directions to their new
home.

Todd met them at the front gate as they entered thru the gate.  Marc and
Len still could not believe the house would be theirs in a matter of days
as they drove in the driveway.  They found the front door open as the
builder was there too.

The builder was skeptical as he saw Marc and Len enter the house.

	"So whose parents are buying this house?" The builder asked.

	"No, it is just us two, sir." Len said as he greeted the builder.

	"What are two young men doing buying a place like this?" The
builder asked as he wondered.

	"Sir we hit the jackpot." Marc said.

	"I would say you did to be able to afford this place." The builder
said. "What did a rich grandparent or something die?"

	"No sir we hit the power ball jackpot a month ago in Missouri."
Len said.

	"I saw that on TV. You are the ones?" Todd said.

	"Wow, then I guess I was a little out of line. I need to ask what
you would like around the pool."  The builder said.

	"Well what are our choices?"  Len asked.

The builder then explained the various options that was allowed in the
allowance.  He told them he could do a more expensive one but they would
have to pay the difference.  He went to his truck and showed the two
samples and pictures of what he was talking about.  They both agreed all
with the designer that the stamped concrete would do just perfect.  The
builder said he would start next week and left.

Marc and Len were pleased with Jim's choice of designers for them as Todd
was a nice looking guy with long dark hair like Len and was just 23 years
old and dressed in shorts and a tight t-shirt just like they had on which
made them feel at ease.

	"So do we have budget in mind?" Todd asked.

	"Dude, we don't have a freaking clue what this shit cost." Len
said.

	"We want something practical, dude. We don't want a $10000 sofa
that we are afraid to sit on and shit like that."  Marc said.

	"Hell I wouldn't either.  That shit is for old folks anyway. I have
got some great ideas for you guys that I think you will like.  Do we want
to do just the main areas first and then come back later and fill the
house?" Todd asked as he felt like he was talking to old college buddies.

	"Cool. I think we are going to like working with you.  Len, we want
the whole thing or just start with the main areas first?"

	"Dude, I don't care one way or the other.  You decide.  All I know
is we want a fucking king size bed in our room."  Len said as he smiled at
Todd.

	"I am sure it will get plenty of use seeing you two hotties
probably will wear that shit out in a year." Todd said as they laughed.

	"You know it dude."  Marc said as he, Len and Todd walked the whole
house.  Todd measured each room and took notes on each space as they toured
the whole house.

	"Dude, this work out area is just too small." Len said as they were
in the master bedroom.

	"Yeah it is. How about if I made one of the smaller bedrooms a
workout room and you guys could use this as say a computer/office area."
Todd said.

	"Great. Dude, we need a bed ASAP so it doesn't have to be special
order or anything super special."  Marc said.

	"I know a place that keeps a good variety in stock. Tell you what
let me work on a few things and I will show you some ideas I have
tomorrow."

	"Awesome dude. You are so cool. This is going to be blast working
with you." Len said as they hugged and left.

Marc and Len then asked if Todd would like to join them for a nice meal.
Todd accepted as he took them to a new restaurant near his apartment.  They
talked further at the restaurant about ideas for their new home and
couldn't wait to see what Todd had in mind for them.  Todd introduced them
to a few of his friends that came in to the restaurant.  Marc and Len had a
great time as they were meeting new people all the time.

Later that night they made up for the previous night of missed sex as Marc
showed his love to Len deep and hard for a long time that night. Len loved
it as Marc pounded his ass hard and filled it up with his hot load. Len
showered Marc with his load that night.

The next day, Wednesday, they worked out again together and ate.  Todd
called and asked if they could meet him that afternoon to show him a few
pieces that might work to get them started.  Marc and Len spent the day at
the pool lounging in the nude until time to get meet up with Todd at a
local furniture store.  So far they were pleased with what Todd had in mind
and loved his masculine ideas that suited their taste.

They meet Todd at the store where he showed them what he thought would be a
great modern king size bed with the size that would fit the room.  Both
loved the style and then picked out an expensive mattress set that seemed
the most comfortable.  Todd said he would pick out some nice sheets and
that were bright in color to accent the beige walls in the room.  Price was
no object as they then picked out a bar height table for their breakfast
area.  He then took them to a local electronics store to let them pick out
some TV's. He suggested flat screen plasma would work great in the whole
house and he had a great idea of hiding it in the family room.  Marc and
Len picked out a 32" for their bedroom and wanted a large one downstairs.
Then they found a nice computer that was sleek and modern that would work
in the area beside the bedroom.  They purchased the goods and told them
they would contact them later when they had a firm move in date.

	"Hey, you today is Halloween. How you two like to join me at this
party I am going to tonight?" Todd asked as they were leaving.

	"That would be awesome but we don't have a costume to wear."  Marc
said.

	"I don't either. It is just a bunch of my friends downing drinks
and dancing and shit.  Come on, you will have fun."  Todd insisted.

	"Yeah, what time?"  Len said.

	"I will pick you up at say 8. You guys will have a blast. Trust
me."  Todd said.

	"Cool. Say you want to come early and maybe we can treat you to a
nice dinner?" Marc asked.

	"Sure, I will see you at 6:30. Oh just wear what you got on." Todd
said as he got in his car and left as did Marc and Len.

They returned to the resort and rested for a little while. Both put on new
clothes and waited out front for Todd. Todd was running a little late but
they didn't mind.  Seafood was the meal of choice that night as they ate
fresh shrimp and fish that were caught locally.

The three then made their way to the party.  The place was full of young
hot gay guys which made Marc and Len very happy as this was the lifestyle
that envisioned when they chose Fort Lauderdale area as their new home.
Todd introduced the two to most of his friends and found most weren't
dressed in costumes.  All greeted Marc and Len with a firm handshake as
they mixed and mingled with Todd.  The drinks were free so Marc and Len
enjoyed a few as they talked and got to know a few of Todd's friends.  The
dancing was hot as Len showed his moves as his shirt was now off as he
worked up a sweat.  Marc joined Len but didn't have the moves that Len had.
A lot of guys that had the body now had their shirts off dancing and really
having a good time. Todd had his shirt off his displayed his worked beach
body that pleased both Marc and Len. At the end of the night or should we
say early morning, Todd was sober enough as he took a breath test before
they handed him the keys.

	"Thanks Todd for inviting us. It was a blast!" Marc said as they
drove back to the resort.

	"I had a feeling you guys would love it.  There were so smoking
hotties there, huh?" Todd said.

	"Hell yeah dude. Damn the eye candy was everywhere." Len said as he
was the drunkest of the three.

Todd let Marc and Len off at the front of the resort around 3.  Both were
exhausted not to mention still hot and sweaty.  They hit the shower
together as soon as they hit the door.  Marc rammed his big cock in and out
of Len's hot ass as they fucked in the shower.  Marc was so into Len that
night after seeing all the hot guys at the party.  Len was practically
begging Marc to fuck him harder as felt the hard cock deep in his ass
again. Cum filled the bottom of the shower as both shot their loads at
practically the same time. They kissed each other after drying off and fell
back onto the bed.  Marc was all over Len's hot body as they made out and
then drifted off to sleep in the early morning hours.

The next morning they were awakened by a knock on the door by the cleaning
person, but Marc told him to come back later as he crawled back into bed
with Len.  It was well past one before the two got out of bed and headed to
find something to eat.  After eating, they came back to the room as Marc
needed to check with Jim to see how things were going and when they were to
sign the final papers.  Jim didn't answer as Marc just left a voice mail.
Marc then realized he had not spoken to their financial planner in some
time. Marc found the number and called him.  Marc put him on speaker phone
as both he and Len gave the okay to invest $40 million of their money and
would gave them him the name and number of their banker in Jefferson City.
Jim called back on Len's phone as Marc was still talking to the planner.
Jim told Len that everything was looking great and that they could sign the
papers the next afternoon at 4 if possible.  Marc and Len had to go up
front to get a fax number to sign a paper to okay the transfer of funds to
the planner.

	"Dude, what did Jim say?" Marc asked as he forgot to ask as he was
so wrapped up with the planner.

	"Oh yeah, he said we could sign tomorrow at 4. He gave me this
figure and said we needed to bring a cashier's check with us for this
amount."  Len said as he handed Marc the paper with the final figure of
their new place.

	"Awesome.  We got a shit load of things to do tomorrow, dude."
Marc said.

	"I know. Two more nights of living in a damn hotel. Thank goodness,
I am ready to get settled, you know."  Len said.

	"I know. I am so ready, dude." Marc said as he kissed Len.

Marc then called and got the particulars on the closing with Jim.  Marc
asked if he had a list of the utilities where they could try to get them
switched over before coming to the signing.  Marc then called Todd to tell
him that they would be ready to go anytime after Friday at 5.  Todd said he
would try to get their bed and electronics set for Saturday delivery.  Marc
thanked Todd for the party again.  Todd said he had had a few friends call
him and told him how much they enjoyed meeting them.  Todd asked them if
they wanted he was meeting some of the guys at a local gay hangout if they
wanted to come.  Marc said sure and they set a time to meet.

Both Marc and Len went to the front desk where the guy handed them 3 faxes
that had come in.  Marc and Len signed the ones that needed to be returned
and asked if the guy could fax them back.  Marc looked at the sheet Jim had
sent over as it confirmed the amount and gave him a list of the utilities
for their new house.

Marc and Len then ate and then went to meet Todd at the bar.  They found
Todd at a large table with a group of the guys they had meet earlier.  Marc
and Len ordered drinks for all of them and told them it was on them for the
night.  Todd introduced a new guy, Alec, to them who was a local artist he
wanted to use to paint them some original art work for their new home.
Alec told them to stop by the studio that he already had some and could
show them a sample of his work.  Marc and Len were pleased that they were
utilizing the gay people in the community to set up their new house.  They
spent the rest of the night drinking, laughing and having a good time as
they got to know some of the guys better. Marc paid the tab that they had
rung up as they all left and went their separate ways.  They said they
generally hung out there.  Marc was thankfully sober as he drank very
little that night and mostly enjoyed the talk among their new
acquaintances.

The next morning Marc and Len were up early as they knew they had a lot to
accomplish.  The first stop was a local branch of their bank. Marc
presented the figure and his account number.  The branch manager was called
over by the teller.

	"Is there a problem, sir?"  Marc asked.

	"No, not at all. If you don't mind, I would like to chat with you
just a minute in my office."  The branch manager said.

	"What's up, dude?" Len asked.

	"Oh I just wanted to introduce myself and see if there was anything
else I might be able to help you young men with."  The manager said.

	"Well, are we getting the check or not?" Marc said as he grew
worried.

	"Oh, they are making it out right now. I see you have a rather
large account.  I like to get to know my larger depositors personally."

	"Sir I can't think of anything else we need right now, can you
Len?"

	"Yeah, Marc, I think we need another ATM card and some checks if
that is possible."

	"Oh that will not be a problem.  I will request one right now.  Do
you still want it sent to the PO Box number in St. Louis?"

	"Oh no, I guess I could give you our new address and you can change
that also."  Marc said.  "By the way, what is our current balance?"

	"Well counting the check we just made. I see here it is
$31,654,123.23.  That is a rather large amount. Maybe I could interest you
gentlemen in a high yield CD that we are offering right now."

	"Sure, how much can we put in there?" Marc asked.

	"Well, I think $2 million is the limit. Let me check." The manager
said. "Oh no I was wrong we offer one that allows $5 million if that would
interest you."

	"Sure dude go for it." Len said. "That means we still got $25 or so
to blow."

	"Dude, like we could blow that kind of cash."  Marc said.

	"You never know." The manager said as he laughed and filled out the
paper work for them to sign. He explained the rate and that is was a 2 year
CD.  The two signed and got their check as they had plenty of other stops
to make that day.

The utility company stops were rather uneventful as they set up all of them
including DSL to their new home.  As they were leaving the last utility
they phoned Todd to ask him if he could meet them at their new house at
around 5:30.  He agreed and then called Jim to get directions as to where
they were closing.  They had an hour to kill so they went to buy a few
necessities as in towels and paper goods to suffice them until they found
out what Todd had in mind as he had already purchased a few items that they
would need to start.

The closing was quick and efficient as they could not wipe the smile from
their faces.  The agent handed them the keys to their new home.  Marc gave
Len a big kiss in the office after they took the keys. The closing agent
was a little surprised at the open gesture. Marc and Len hugged Jim and
thank him for all the work but knew he was well compensated when they saw
how much commission he was banking on their transaction alone.  They then
hugged the closer as they left and were all smiles as they headed to their
new home as the true owners for the first time.

They were now recognized by the man working the front gate and told him a
friend was meeting them shortly.  Their long journey was finally ending in
a way as they opened the front door.

	"Welcome home." Marc said.

	"Hell yes! This bitch is all ours. I still can't fucking believe
it, dude."

Marc leaned over and kissed the floor as did Len as they then kissed each
other.  They knew many happy memories were still to come as they started a
new chapter in their lives as homeowners.
