*Crooked paths are more intriguing than straight highways.*

*Rolling waves are more thrilling than placid pools.*

*The blowing wind is more exhilarating than the calm air and the ghostly
half-light of evening is often far more interesting than the bright
sunshine of morning.*

*At any given opportunity, choose adventure over security.*

*Dull routine will kill you just as surely as danger will.*

*It's just that taking risks and making unanticipated decisions allows for
a much more enjoyable route to the end. *

*Life itself should be the biggest adventure or else, perhaps it wasn't
worth living at all.*



It was Friday; the last regular baseball game of the season and our boys
were undefeated. It was the top of the sixth inning and we were ahead four
to two. Sean had done the impossible already and had hit a two run homer
which meant that he'd hit a home run in every game during the season. I'd
made a mental note that I needed to figure out some way to reward Arlen for
all of his wonderful work with both boys.

Our pitcher had gotten himself into a bit of a jam and so, Coach Chino had
called Brian in from left field to hopefully close the game out.

Just as in every competition he took place in, Brian almost magically
transformed to `Spider'.

`Spider' was a boy I didn't really know but he was a boy I wouldn't like to
have to try and compete against.

`Spider' knew he couldn't be beaten. `Spider knew he was in perfect control
whether he was pitching in a baseball game or defending his goal on the
soccer pitch.

`Spider' was an awesome athlete and a fierce competitor.

He took the mound with runners on first, second, and only one out. He threw
his warm up pitches and then nodded to Ricco behind the plate.

The batter stepped into the box and Spider tossed a fastball inside almost
frightening the kid at bat to death.

"Strike!" the umpire called.

He hurled another screaming fastball right above the batter's knees. The
kid swung his bat but the ball was already in Ricco's glove.

"Strike!"

The boy at the plate called time and stepped out trying to gain control. I
pitied any batter his age going against my Brian when he was `Spider' and
he was dealing his Spider stuff.

Ricco slipped the sign and Brian smiled and nodded. The next pitch was his
filthy, filthy slider and the poor kid at bat didn't even know what had
happened before he was called out.

I leaned over to Arlen.

"If you'd done nothing else for Brian, that slider you taught him was the
best thing you could have ever done."

He grinned and took a sip of his beer.

"Yeah but Eric, if the kid wasn't so talented, just knowing how to
technically throw a pitch wouldn't be worth crap. Brian and Sean are
natural athletes. I instruct but they DO."

The next batter stepped into the box and `Spider' and Ricco exchanged looks
before Ricco gave the sign.

It was a change-up just off the middle. The batter connected and drove a
hot grounder almost directly to Charlie at shortstop. The boy quickly
snagged it and tossed it to Sean at first base and just like that, the game
and the season were over.

There would certainly be post-season play-off games but only for our team.
The other triple A Deer Run team hadn't done so very well and they hadn't
qualified for the post-season.

I shook Chino Lopez's hand.

"I want to host the entire team and staff to a cook-out and pool party next
week-end. I'll arrange the invitations and everything. You're a marvelous
coach and a wonderful man Chino. This has been so much fun!"

He grinned.

"The party sounds wonderful and I'm glad you're going to do it before the
post-season games. We might be clobbered you know. Although, with Brian
pitching and Sean's bat, I think we'll be something to reckon with."

The boys approached me.

"Dad, seein as how Charlie is spendin' the night with us, Brian an me were
wonderin' if Ricco could too."

I looked to Ricco.

"Have you asked your parents?"

His smile was (as always) dazzling.

They're fine with it if you are Mister T.

"Have you brought a change of clothes?"

"He don't need to Dad him and me are the same size so it'll be ok."

"Well then, it's fine with me. Do you want me to have the solarium fixed up
like we usually do?"

"No Dad, we're gonna sleep in my new room. It'll be very special."

"OK Brian, now guys, I've already called Mrs. Edwards and told her we're
having dinner out and I'm thinking that the undefeated Deer Park boys
deserve nothing less than steaks so Arlen has made us reservations at
Oakwood House. We have a private room so you can all remain in your
uniforms.

"Wow Mr. T! My Dad ate there once and he told us it was the best meal he'd
ever had!"

I grinned at him.

"Charlie, I hope it turns out to be the best meal you've ever had but
either way, we're off to celebrate."

As the five boys tore into their tee-bone steaks like the little carnivores
nature intended them to be, Arlen and I smiled. He sipped his beer and I
enjoyed my more than adequate Merlot.

I secretly took pleasure in watching Jack and Charlie try to pretend that
they weren't excited about sharing Jack's bed tonight.

Loving, caring sexual experience was such a blessing and I

(like most people) had sadly gotten mine much later in life than these
boys. I was so happy for them.

I knew what was going to happen in Jack's room but I secretly wondered
about what was going to happen in Brian's. That might be worth being the
proverbial fly on the wall. I knew that Sean had been sexually involved
with both of them. I didn't know if Ricco and Brian had ever done anything
together but I strongly suspected that tonight was going to be and event in
Brian's room.

*********************

The boys were all in the game room mostly playing pool though Sean, Jack
and Brian were also attempting to engage their friends in a game of seven
card stud.

I picked up the phone and dialed Chris.

"Do you think your Mother and Aunt could spare you tonight?"

I heard him giggle.

"Do you still have spare toothbrushes?"

I giggled this time.

"Meet you in the parking lot. A couple of drinks and then upstairs yes?"

"I'm halfway out the door boss."

*************************

I reveled in the beauty of his hard sleek body as he almost tore his
clothes off. His goofy little grin as he pulled off his underpants was
almost priceless.

"I'm ready, how come you're not?"

"Because, I want to look at you for a while you beautiful young man."

He smiled and did a pirouette before jumping onto the bed and sprawling
himself out almost obscenely.

I'd pretty much come to the conclusion that as the boys grew into their own
lives, it would most likely be Chris who would share my bed and the idea
was not at all unattractive to me. The young man was beautiful and
enthusiastic and he gave me great pleasure every time we were together.

I took the final sip from the drink I'd brought up from the library and
began to unbutton my shirt.

"I suspect that you may be in for it tonight my little bro. Is that ok with
you?"

He grinned again.

"If you can give it, I can take it Boss man."

He was true to his word and we finally fell asleep in the obscenely early
hours of the morning.

He was sprawled upon his side of the bed and was snoring but it was
actually very cute so I just slid off the mattress and moved to the kitchen
alcove and the coffee maker.

I dropped in the paper filter and measured the grounds. Pushing the button
to start the brewing process, I walked into the bathroom and brushed my
teeth.

The pot was filled when I walked back in and I poured two large mugs and
carried them to the side of the bed.

As usual, the aroma got to him and he woke up grimacing and stretching. He
finally looked up and grinned. He reached out for his coffee mug and said;

"You know that the only reason I let you fuck me is because you make me
coffee in the morning right?"

"Oh, for certain Chris."

I decided to do something very different. I walked out into the hallway and
shouted;

"Who wants a mass shower?"

Receiving no response I walked over to Jack's door and pounded on it.

"Mass shower in my bathroom right now!"

I walked down the hall to Brian's door and did the same.

Almost at once, the hall was filled with naked little boys shuffling into
my big shower, rubbing the sleep from their eyes and giggling as they
realized what they were about to do.

I had the water running at a perfect temperature and I said;

"Chris and I have shampoo duty, walk under the spray then come to us and
we'll lather you up and then circle around and rinse. When that's done
we'll do the same thing with scrubbing you off...one continuous circle got
it?"

They happily chuckled and expressed their understanding and we began the
process. Chris and I worked soap and shampoo all over five young squirming
bodies but we got it done.

I sent them out to dry and then get dressed while Chris and I finally
showered ourselves.

I leaned in and drew him against me and kissed him. You're a big part of my
future you know."

His smile was warm and tender.

"Of course I know and I'm very patient Eric."

*******

Arlen drove Ricco and Charlie home and my boys rode with them. The nasty
little boy noises that I'd heard from behind the two bedroom doors had
convinced me that five little boys had experienced a very wonderful night
in their chosen configurations.

I just grinned as the limo pulled away from the car park.

*****************************

"Its intriguing Eric."

 Doc Swaim said as he sat in the library with Richard and me.

"According to this documentation, back in May of 1916 (almost a year before
America entered World War I) a ship registered under the Argentine banner;
the `Santa Lucía" left Buenos Aires carrying gold and silver bullion
secretly provided by American and Canadian supporters of the British and
French.

The `Santa Lucia disappeared from history three weeks later. The last
communication from her was that she was miles east of Nova Scotia and
headed for the North Sea.

This documentation Jack has received indicates that the ship was stalked by
a German U-Boat and torpedoed.

Supposedly, the U-boat commander or his superiors hoped at some point to
return bringing deep divers and retrieve the cargo but the United States
entered the war and it went badly for Germany.

The point is Eric, at least the U-boat commander and his second in command
knew what the cargo of that ship was. If this information is true, then
it's highly probable that other people knew as well.

Jack's anonymous correspondent is telling him that someone (presumably
associated with the University Marine Studies Department) knows about this
incident and has (at least) an approximate idea of the sunken ship's
location.

This person (or persons) somehow coerced, bribed or otherwise convinced the
Captain of Jack's lost research ship to go off course to attempt to locate
the lost Santa Lucia.

This was obviously because of the research ship's sophisticated underwater
search equipment.

Jack's ship should never have been in harm's way and there should have been
no tragic loss of life but someone seemingly was (or for that matter, still
is), looking for a lucrative prize.

By today's standards, if the manifest of the Santa Lucia is correct, in her
hold lays some two and a half billion dollars in precious bullion, which
can be easily moved and cashed-in all over the world.

That fortune was certainly worth diverting the research boat out onto storm
threatened seas by someone in order to locate her.

If the Santa Lucia was sunk while still above the continental shelf, she
would be salvageable fairly easily, if she made it into the north sea, a
salvage operation would be difficult and expensive.

The questions of course are several.

First, is the story of the Santa Lucia actually true?

Second, are there secret records of where she went down? These would at
best be approximate because there were no GPS systems back then.

Third, are there still people out there who know this story and are looking
for the treasure and finally, how responsible are those people for those
deaths on Jack's ship?

After all, you can't blame anyone for a storm and a rogue wave."

I gathered their glasses and walked to the bar.

"Richard, get our best people on this and make certain that they work
closely with Professor Swaim. Full research at the highest prority!

 I'd like some basic answers next week.

I'm thinking that we might go looking for sunken treasure. I do mean
us...I'll want you and Doc along since I'm obviously intending on going on
this adventure.

If we eventually find and recover this trove, we'll put it all into a
dedicated account for the Academy...that should certainly contribute to its
future. That is of course after you guys and the crew that goes with us
splits up a twenty percent share of the booty.

Mostly though, I want to find out about the actual events and motivation
behind how I almost lost my redheaded wonder. I won't be able to forgive
that."

"Damn Eric, you certainly are becoming a hard ass!"

I actually glared at my trusted head of Skuggor.

"Do you consider that inappropriate Richard?"

He actually smiled.

"No Sir, you are the Launcelot and you are acting just as you should."

I smiled and tilted my tumbler to them both.

************************

I was a bit surprised to find them both on my bed.

"We want you to do us both Dad." Sean grinned.

"Boys, you think too much of me. I could do one of you and then, I'd
probably be asleep. You're young boys and you have a hell of a lot more
staying power than I do.

I'll be happy to suck your sweet cocks but I certainly can't fuck you both
tonight."

"Yes you can Dad! You just don't know it. We know you can. I'm so sure,
that you fuck Sean first. If you can't do me...then, I'll understand. OK?"

I smiled and felt so loved.

"OK you monkeys! I'll do Sean first and then we'll see about you Brian."

"Let's do it this way Dad." Sean said as he got up on his knees with his
chest and head resting on the mattress. To my surprise, Brian produced the
tube of lube and worked it into Sean's tight hole and then coated my cock.

He grinned from ear to ear.

"So Dad, fuck my brother!"

With a half grimace, I moved against Sean's perfectly offered rectum, and
with only minimal pressure, I was in and we were doing the lover's dance.

His little body was so wonderful and responsive and I nibbled his ears and
kissed all over his young back as we moved against each other...my cock
sliding into his hot ass.

I realized that I'd reached the goal post and I whispered to him;

"I'm coming little man."

"Me too Dad!"

Instantly, his raging hard cock spilled a big boy dose of jiz out onto the
bed.

I followed him instantly but my load spilled inside his wonderful young
body.

We collapsed onto the bed and I pulled him close to me.

"That was so great to watch guys!" Brian was cuddling against my back.

"You rest a bit Dad and then, it's my turn. I know you can do it."

I smiled and reached behind me grasping him to me.

"I'll certainly try Brian."

They both wrapped their arms around me and began kissing me all over and I
tried to return the favor. I have no idea how long it was but I suspect it
was about forty-five minutes before I felt my cock become as hard as a
rock. I smiled with a great deal of satisfaction.

`I'm still a young man.' I realized.

I slapped them both sharply on their beautiful little asses.

"Up on your knees Brian my son. I'm about to fuck you it seems."

He giggled and rolled over.

"We told you Dad." Sean said with a chuckle as he lubed up his brother's
rectum and then re-greased my very hard cock.

In the end, we collapsed into a loving and erotic group embrace and we fell
asleep.

*******

It was certainly going to be an interesting week.

Sean was scheduled to do his first take-off on Friday and then he and Brian
had their second play-off game. They'd won the first rather dominantly at
six to two.

Brian was scheduled to pitch this time so I anticipated a bit of family
excitement.

We'd had a wonderful celebration pool party and cook out two weeks ago and
I felt it had been a great bonding and encouragement event for the team.

They'd become very close over the season and were excited to be going into
the play-offs. They were a wonderful and funny group of boys.

Jack had a scheduled check up with Doctor Sam on Wednesday, and I of
course, was waiting for information on the treasure ship.

Chris had told me that his mother and aunt would love to move here but felt
they'd be cramping his and his neighbor's style if they moved into his
condo. I privately sighed in relief over that news because that particular
compound was really intended to be a male habitat. Two older women might
have made it uncomfortable for Richard, Barry and Uncle Phil.

I countered with the offer of one of the new condos being built at the
north end of the property and after a rather brief discussion, they'd
accepted tearfully.

I thought to myself that in about another three months, those homes were
going to be filled with lively and valuable tenants.

*******************************

"Well Jack, You are recovering remarkably well. I have to tell you that
there is still enough residual shrapnel in you to set off an alarm at the
airport but we'll take care of that in one simple operation in a few
months. From what I can tell, your ear is also healing as we hoped so I
expect hearing to begin returning very shortly."

My boy smiled at him.

"Thanks Doctor Sam. How long do you think before I can be boxing and other
rough stuff again?"

"Well, Jack, if you continue to heal like you have been, I'd guess about
three months."

The red haired wonder broke into a large grin.

"That sounds great Doctor Sam. Thanks."

"Don't thank me Jack; thank your body for healing so well."

The boy was sitting totally naked on the doctor's examination table without
a qualm. NEST boys had no sense of shame or concern about being naked. I
privately wondered if the Doctor found that unusual or disconcerting.

"Thank you Sam. I'll be in touch about a pool party in a couple of weeks. I
and the boys would certainly enjoy your company."

"Thanks Eric. I know my wife would really love that."

***********************

"Eric, you can't be in the plane for this because I need Sean's complete
attention to be on the task at hand. He's flawless on the flight simulator
but this will be his first real take-off. You get to watch from the ground."

Will and Sean had already done their walk around and my little boy was so
excited that I thought he didn't even remember that I was there.

I was surprised when he ran up to me and hugged me tightly. I pulled him
close and kissed his head so as not to embarrass him.

"I love you little man. Do well and have a good time."

"Thanks Dad. I love you so much that I can't even tell ya'"

Tears were literally pouring from my eyes as the little Cessna sped down
the runway and gracefully took to the sky.

`That was Sean that did that.' I thought. `My little boy just took off in
his own plane.'

After they'd landed, he was so excited that he was jumping.

"Dad...Dad that was so cool! I never thought I'd be able to do that! An in
two weeks, Will says that I'm  gonna land. Then I'm really a pilot though I
gotta wait to be old enough for my license.

I love you so much for letting me learn to do this Dad! I love you so much!"

He was actually spinning around me as he hugged my waist and I smiled
broadly down at him.

"So I take it that you enjoyed that did you little man?"

He rewarded me with a Sean Smile and I pulled him into a tight hug.

**************************************************

The four of us were sitting around in the library like miserable little
children. Out of nowhere, the skies had opened up and the rain was
torrential. Our part of the country drains slowly so the baseball game was
cancelled.

Jack and Brian were enjoying a beer while Sean and I were sipping single
malt and trying to decide how to spend the day...a pretty hard decision when
you live in a place like Joyous Gaurde.

It was Jack who reminded us that there was an indoor pool.

"let's start learnin' our new minnow here how to swim properly."

"Great idea Jack! You two teach and I'll be the lifeguard."

My three beautiful sons, naked and happy were in the water. They were
working on the breast stroke with Brian and he was a quick learner
essentially because he was such a natural athlete.

I sat at the side of the pool watching and thinking how lucky I was to be
able to have these three boys share their lives with me.

"We'll work on the crawl next time Brian." Jack said as the three of them
climbed out of the pool. You'll be good enough to make the swim team next
year little brother. You learn stuff so fast."

They walked off to the showers and I choked back tears. These three loved
each other so much. It reminded me of how much I had loved and treasured
Kyle.

The thought brought a terror to me.

`Please no...don't let anything happen to one of my boys! You've taken so
much from me. No more please.'

The morose attitude ended quickly as they walked out of the showers
giggling and joking as they dried off.

I looked at them. They were all so beautiful

Jack was almost a man but still very much a boy.

Brian was still taller than Sean was but his `bits' were actually slightly
smaller than Sean's.

Sean was obviously just on the cusp of a growth spurt and still the apple
of my eye.

My god but I loved them!

****************************

"So, we now know that the story of the Santa Lucia is true. We even know
the number of the U-boat that sank her. We now have the approximate
coordinates for where she went down."

Doctor Swaim and Richard smiled at me.

"So Richard, do we have ships? Do we have a navy or something like that?"

He grinned.

"No Eric, we certainly don't have a navy but we do have ships."

"Do we have any ships that might be capable of this type of salvage search
and recovery?"

"Way ahead of you Boss. Our ship the `Magnolia' is almost purposed designed
for this job. She's unfortunately stationed in Portland. I've already
ordered her to move here. All things considered, she'll be through the
canal and sailing up the east coast in about three weeks."

I grinned across at him.

"You know Richard; you are getting very good at your job."

He smiled back at me.

"Thanks boss. Does that mean that the Professor and me get another drink?"

I don't know who laughed louder...me or Doc.

"Hell boys, we're going treasure hunting how do you feel about that?"

"Arrrr!" they replied in their best Robert Newton impressions.

"OK then, I guess we need to wait for our ship."

(to be continued)
