"Louie, we are almost into Tracy. I am not comfortable driving in a lot
of traffic. Do you think you can take us in the rest of the way?
"Sure find a wide spot and pull over. I was just going to suggest the
same thing. I have reservations at a campground.. Maybe between the two
of us we can find it. Do you know where The Shady Oaks RV Park is?"
inquired Louie.
"I do and it is only about half mile away. I can drive that far. Shady Oaks
is on the right side of the road, so we won't even have to cross over."
"Good! Go for it!"
Adam pulled up to the office and stopped. "Hey would you look at that red
Mustang convertible parked over there!"
"You like that old thing? It is your! Exclaimed Louie. "I bought it
Oregon before I left. I had the dealer call the dealer here and have it
delivered."
" Oh! You have to be kidding. I can't accepted anything that expensive
from you!"
"I don't remember asking you to accept it. All I need is Thanks! Now get
your butt over there and give it a good inspection. I'll go in and
register and pick up the keys for you. Now Move It!!!!!"
"Thanks, Louie! Can I give you a big hug? Asked Adam.
"Adam, you never need to ask for a hug. Anytime you want to hug me, I am
willing. Just do it!" With that Adam hugged me and raced to his car.
I went in the office, finished registering and picked up the keys to the
car. I went out and handed them to Adam. He was beside himself and gave
me another hug. "Adam, why don't you drive over to your mother's and
tell her hello. You can come back later and we can go to dinner. I can
take a taxi over to the lawyers office."
"Mom won't be home until after 5, when she gets off work. I can make
like a chauffeur and drive you around."
"Adam, do you have your mother's work number? Here use my cell. Why
don't you call and let her know you are in town and invite your family
to dinner, my treat."
We parked the RV and got it all set up in record time. Adam was a fast
learner and was a really big help. We decided it was time for lunch and
headed for a Chinese buffet not to far away. Adam had called his mother
and had made an reservation at Gina's Italian Restaurant for 7:00.
It was time to go to Dan's office. Dan is a lawyer and a good friend. I
was not looking forward to going to see him. I didn't have a clue about
what Dan wanted to talk to me about, but I knew it must be serious and
would have something to do with Joe. I asked Adam if he would go with me
and of course his answer was yes.
We were met by Dan's secretary with a hug and a kiss. I introduced Adam
and he got the same treatment. She went to Dan's office and announced
us. He rushed to greet us as his secretary had done. Again Adam got the
same treatment. We were given coffee and all of us went into the meeting
room.
After some general visiting, Dan got down to business. "Louie, Joe is
resting comfortably and is in no pain whatsoever. His brain activity is
nil and in all purposes he is brain dead. He is just being kept alive by
artificial means. There is absolutely no prospect for recovery."
I started sobbing uncontrollably. Adam wrapped his arms around me and
held me. Soon Dan was able to continue. I knew now that Adam would get me
through the hard times ahead.
"Joe's mother is not expected to live more than two or three days. Here
is where the problem comes in. Joe had the power to take her off life
support. Just as you have for Joe. He had his heart attack before this
could be accomplished. I must ask you not to remove Joe's tubes until
after his mother's death."
"No, Joe does not want to live connected to a machine."
"Louie, I think you better hear Dan out. I feel there is a very good
reason for his request. Hear what he has to say and then make your
decision." Adam pleaded.
"Adam is right. I know how you feel and I feel the same way. I don't
want to go against Joe's wishes either but a couple of days won't make
much difference one way or another OK to go on?"
"Yes" Louie whispered. Adam continued to hold Louie.
"Joe has a will leaving everything to his mother. He was in the process
of changing it when he was hospitalized. Now there is nothing wrong with
that. The problem is that she also has a will leaving everything to a
Rev. Roberts. He is a minister of a ultra conservation church. He is very
anti gay and leads protest marches all over the country and is a very bad
apple. If Joe should die before his mother, then Rev. Roberts would
receive Joe's estate. He then would use Joe's money fight against gays
and everything Joe stood for. I am sure that the church would not receive
one penny. I know Joe would not want that. You would not get anything."
"Dan, I don't care about the money. I just want to do the right thing
for Joe and at the same time I don't want Rev. Roberts to get anything."
"There is more, Louie. Joe's estate is worth roughly 6 million dollars.
He has signed all the paper work putting your name down as co-owner. If
and when this paper work is complete, then you would automatically become
owner of his estate and all Rev. Roberts would get Joe's mother's
house, which has very little value. Let me give you an example, If both
of you share a joint checking account and something happens to one of
you, the money would automatically belong to the surviving partner. That
is what we are trying to do. All we need is your signature on all the
documents and I would need a day or so to get them all filed. So we are
looking at two or three days at the most."
"Dan, I would like to see Joe now and I will want to talk with his doctor
before I make a decision. I will let you know tonight. Are you free for
dinner. We have reservations at Gina's and very easily could add you and
a guest to the list."
"Yes!"
"Then it is settled. We will see you at dinner. I just have to get to the
hospital and see Joe. Adam are you ready to play chauffeur?"
"Let's go!. See you tonight, Dan." Adam said.
As we were leaving Dan's office Adam said, "I certainly wouldn't want
to be in you position. That is going to be one hard decision to make.
Louie, I am going to be there by your side and you can lean on me all you
want. One thing I won't do is try to influence you one way or the other.
This is a decision that you and only you will make. You have my full
support either way. What I think does not matter, so don't ask."
"Thanks Adam! Just having you by my side is more than enough. I don't
know what I would do without you. I am so glad that I stopped at that
rest area. Fate works in mysterious ways. Will you give me a hug. I need
one now."
"Hey, I though no asking!" laughed Adam. "Louie, I probably wouldn't
have survived it you hadn't stopped.. I think we need each other.
Together, we'll make it through all the dark and gloomy days to come."
We arrived at the hospital and we went to the admittance office. I showed
my power of attorney and told the nurse that Adam was my assistant. She
gave us the room number and told us how to get there.
Adam and I were standing in front of the elevator and when the door
opened, I froze. I couldn't move. Adam took me by the arm and literally
pulled me into the elevator. No a word was spoken. I just stood there
squeezing his arm. I must have had the circulation shut off. Adam didn't
flinch a muscle . He just keep looking at me and smiling. That was all I
needed and came back to life.
We arrived at Joe's room. I dropped Adam's arm and rushed to Joe ,
hugging and kissing him.
Adam just had a chair and left me be. Finally, I started talking to Joe,
telling him everything that had happened since we had seen each other
last and how much I loved him. I know Joe could not hear me but I didn't
care. Who knows what goes on in a person's mind when they are in a coma.
There have been cases where people have come out of comas and have said
they knew everything that was going on. I didn't care! I was going to
talk to him and treat him as I normally would. I called Adam over and
introduced him to Joe. I knew Joe would like him as much as I did.
We had been with Joe for some time, when Joe's doctor came in. I liked
him from the time he walked into the room and introduced himself. I
introduced myself and Adam.
"Louie I very glad to meet you and Adam. I feel that I know you
personally. Dan has told me all about you. Finally, I get you meet you."
"Dr. John are you familiar with Rev. Roberts. I was wondering what kind
of guy he is."
"Louie, I really can't talk about him. I am Joe's mother's doctor. I
am sure that Dan has filled
you in. I can tell you that she is in very bad condition and her body is
starting to shut down. I don't think that she has long to live. I would
like to assure you that Joe is no pain whatsoever. I am keeping him
heavily sedated. He has absolute no brain function at all."
"Joe has a living will, were you aware of that?"
"Yes, I have had the organ donation people check him out. He was without
oxygen for so long that his organs were damaged and can't be used. The
only thing of use will be his heart valves. These would probably go to
two young children born with heart defects. Sorry Louie, I know that you
would like to do more but we just can't. Have you made a decision about
disconnecting Joe from the life support system?"
"No, I haven't. I have a lot of thinking to do. From what you and Dan
tell me there is no hurry. I will leave him as is for at least another
day and see what develops. I will let you know when I have made a
decision. Thank you doctor."
"Louie and Adam, I have to make my rounds. I am behind schedule now. See
you tonight. I can see from your faces that Dan didn't say anything. Did
he?"
Adam replied, "No, but we are getting an idea."
"You are right, Dan and I are a couple. See you tonight." and the doctor
left.
"Well, Adam, I think Joe is very capable hands. I think Dr. John will be
a great help to me when it comes to making that dreaded decision."
"Louie are you ready to return to the motor home?"
"Sure let's go. We can stop by a department store and get you some
decent duds to wear."
"Louie, I can get by with what I have on. I can laundry the things in my
backpack and get by just fine."
"Adam, I want to tell you now. I have more money than I know what to do
with. Joe has 6 million and I have that plus. Money is no issue with me
and I enjoy sharing with my fiends as long as they are aren't leaches
and holding out their hands to get all they can. You know give me give
me. Shall we go now?"
"Louie, I still don't feel right. I was not brought up that way. I have
always worked for what I had. This is all new to me."
"Adam, believe me. You have already earned much more by just being here
for me. I value you as a friend and would do anything for you. Please let
me. It gives me a good feeling in my heart when I can help someone less
fortunate that myself."
"You convinced me. What kind of store do you want?"
"A good Man's store."
"There are a couple in town but I have never been in either one of them."
"What are we waiting for? Let's go!
I stood on the side lines and let Adam do his shopping. I must say he had
very good taste in men's clothing. My wardrobe could use a big up lift.
I had Adam help me select new clothes for me. We completed our shopping.
Adam and I have a new wardrobe from the inside out. He was like a kid at
Christmas time. He showed his appreciation and I liked his conservative
attitude. Of course, I had to add many items to his pile of loot. We did
manage to get everything in the car and went back to the RV. We spent a
lot of time hanging everything and putting my old things in boxes to take
to a thrift store.
I looked at the clock and noticed that it was after 5 and knew his mother
would be home. I talked Adam in going to see her by himself and to come
back and get me in time for dinner. I felt that he needed some time alone
with his family and I would meet them later that night.
I decided to take a short nap, shower and dress for dinner. This had been
a long and trying day. I turned the tv on and caught a short news clip of
Rev. Roberts leading a protest march down main street. He had about fifty
people marching with him. All with signs. I saw one with Joe's name on
it. Rev. Roberts just made a decision for me. He would not get one penny
of Joe's money. I was even going to try to keep him from getting the
house that belonged to Joe's mother.
It was 6:30. Adam arrived to pick me up and take me to dinner. When I
open the door, I could have fainted. There before me, stood the best
looking man I had ever seen. Whoever said clothes make the man sure knew
what he was talking about. "My, My this can't be the same Adam that I
know!"
" It is the same old me, only in a new package. So you like?" He did a
quick 360. I liked what I saw.
With that I threw both arms around him and held him tight. I certainly
would be proud to be seen with Adam tonight. I had on a new outfit that
Adam had picked for me. Adam gave me his grin and we left.
We arrive at Gina's before every one else and went in. Everything was
set up in the large room in back. Gina met us at the door, grabbed me and
gave me a big kiss. "And just who is this big handsome man you are with.
I think I will take him home with me." Adam turned red, I am sure all the
way to his toes.
After Adam was introduce, he got a bigger kiss than me. "Oh, give me some
air! I think I am going to faint." exclaimed Gina. "Louie, I see you kept
your promise and brought your violin with you."
Adam turned even a brighter shade of red. This time I gave Adam a big
grin. Adam and I were ushered into our room. Everything was already set
up. There were several plates of appetizers, finger foods and special
treats.
"What did Gina mean when she said you kept your promise and brought your
violin?"
"Gina is a very old and dear friend and I have been eating at her place
every time I am in town. The last time we were here Gina was at the same
party as Joe and I. I Played a couple of songs and she wanted me to play
some good old Italian music here in the café. I told her the next time, I
was in town, I would be the traveling minstrel and play for her guest."
"So that is why you had the violin with you. I thought that maybe you
were going to set up on the street corner and play to pay for dinner."
Adam almost died of laughter.
"Not a bad idea, but maybe next time." I joked.
"Do you mind if I sing along with you. I love singing some of the old
songs." asked Adam.
"Adam, I think all the guest are in for a double treat. I would love to
hear you sing myself. I bet you have a terrific singing voice. You can't
let all that college training go to waste." Louie replied. "Why don't we
have a small warm up session while we wait for the other to arrive."
With that I took the violin out of its case and started to play. Adam
came in right on cue. The guests gave us a loud applause. Gina came over
and said, "I know that I am taking this young man home with me. What a
great voice. Louie you sure made a good find in this one and he is a real
keeper. Louie, you weren't too bad yourself. Thanks guys!"
We went to another area to play one more song before our party arrived.
Adam got a real surprised look on his face. He rushed over to the table
and started hugging everyone. "Louie come here. I want to meet some old
friends. Rev. Paul is the minister of Mom's church. In fact he baptized
me when I was 12." I was introduced to Rev. Paul and his family. I asked
if they would like to join us and they agreed to do so.
"Louie do you know the song `In The Garden'? I know that this Rev.
Paul's favorite hymn and I would love to sing it for him." Louie did not
say anything but started to play. After the introduction, Adam joined in.
He asked everyone to join in on the chorus. Everyone is the house sang at
the top of their lungs. Not a dry eye could be found in the whole place.
Dan and Dr. John were the first to arrive. I gave Dan a bad time abut
holding out on me but gave him a big hug and congratulations. Of course,
Dr. John got his hug, also. I asked Dr. John how Joe was doing and the
status of his mother. There was no change in Joe's condition but Joe's
mother had deteriorated and probably would not last more than two days at
the most, if that long.
I told both of them that I had decided to wait to remove Joe from life
support. They had seen the same news program as I had and knew exactly
where I was coming from. Dan told me to come in tomorrow and start the
signing process of getting my name on all of Joe's financial holdings.
This way we could be sure that Rev. Roberts would not get his hands on
any of Joe's money. Dan asked Adam to come also and act as a witness and
one of the secretaries could act as the other. Dan's other secretary was
a notary and could notarize everything making it completely legal. Thus,
Rev. Roberts would have nothing to use in court.
Adam's mother and family arrived now the festivities could began. She
was very surprised to see Rev. Paul and family and gave them all a big
hug. Adam introduce his mother, Gene. She presented her daughter, Sara
and her husband, Tim. Before they could be introduce, Debbie and Josh
rushed forward and said at the same time, "I am Debbie" "I am Josh."
Before anyone could say anything, Josh asked, "Louie, are you Adam's new
boyfriend? I really hope so! Can I call you Grandpa Louie? I don't have
a Grandpa and I want you to be mine!'
"Josh, first of all, Adam and I are just friends. We have only known each
other for two day and we would like to get to know each other. I would be
delighted to have you for a grandson. I have never had a grandson and I
think you will be just great. Debbie I would like to have you for a grand
daughter, also. So Grandpa Louie, It is! I like the sound of that! But
Adam, Dan and Dr. John that does not go for you!"
I must have a worried look on my face because Adam came to my rescue.
"Louie, don't worry about Rev. Paul. He know that I am gay. He is very
supportive and has come to my defense several times. He may not
completely believe in the concept of gays but he is not against it
either. His belief is that every person has the right to decide such
matters for themselves. What happens between two consenting adults is of
none of his business. He, also, says God loves gays along with everyone
else. God is Love."
I went over to Rev. Paul, shook his hand and said "Thank You!" His smile
was all that I needed.
"Grandpa Louie, why do you have that violin, Can you play it? Have you
heard Adam sing? Asked Debbie.
"I was playing just before you arrived and Adam was singing. Would you
like to hear us? Adam are you ready for another round.?" I started to
play. Adam, Gene, and Sara all started to sing. Soon everyone in the
restaurant all started singing. Gina was the perfect hostess and
introduce us to her guests.
Adam and I started going from table to table. We were getting a big
reception and people wanted to tip us. We just told them to drop their
donations into the jar for Habitat for Humanity located by the cash
register and I would match every thing dropped in the jar..
Finally, we went back to our party and had dinner. Of course Debbie and
Josh had taken care of the seating arrangements. Gene was on the end. Dan
and Dr. John was on one side along with Rev Paul and His wife.. Josh and
Debbie were seated between Uncle Adam and Grandpa Louie. Rev. Paul's two
boys sat one on each side of us. I must say it was a little crowded by no
one complained. I had to get use to being a Grandpa, especially when I
was never a Dad. The two little boys were calling me Grandpa Louie. I was
loving ever minute of my new found happiness.
We were getting ready to leave and I started to pay the tab but Gina
wouldn't hear of it. I told her that I wanted to leave a tip for the
entire staff and I did-double the price of the whole meal. Everyone
didn't get much but they were happy. I wanted to do more but Gina said
no. I would send over a special thank you gift tomorrow.
Gene wanted to know if we wanted to stop by her place and have dessert.
The kids wouldn't take no for an answer. Gene had made cookies and
homemade ice cream. The kids were told they could not have any until
everyone was there. They believed that they would be left out so we
really didn't have a choice regardless of the fact that no one had any
more room for more food. Oh! What a treat we had.
Dan and Dr. John started to leave and got a royal send off by the two
little chatter boxes. Rev. Paul and family had to leave also. I love that
family. He is my kind of minister and father. I knew I would be in the
first pew on Sunday.
Adam and I were just about ready to leave for the motor home, when the
kids decided they wanted to go camping too. They started in on their mom
to let them go. She finally said that they had to ask Uncle Adam and
Grandpa Louie. We finally agreed even though we had different plans. I
thought that Gene and Tim would die laughing. The kids wanted to know
what was so funny. Gene said "Oh! Nothing" And started laughing again.
Adam was beet red and I know I must have been redder. Maybe having grand
kids wasn't so neat after all.
Sara told the kids that they needed to get toothbrushes, night clothes,
and clothes for tomorrow. They were off and back in just a few minutes,
ready to go. I told them that I had sleeping bags but they need pillows.
Off they ran again. They came back with pillows and a stuffed animal
apiece. As we leaving, Gene said they would see us for breakfast but the
kids wanted to eat at the motor home. I said ok and Gene, Sara and Tim
should be there about 8:00 or there wouldn't be any left after that.
We were gone.
We stopped by the hospital and went to Joe's room for a few minutes.
Adam and I told him goodby and left. The kids were in the waiting room
and were ready to go when we arrived. They were excited and wanted to go
camping.
Finally Adam and I got them into their sleeping bags and went into the
bedroom. We were barely in bed when Josh knocked on our door. He had to
use the bathroom again. Adam slipped his shorts on and let him into the
bathroom. He came out and Debbie wanted to use it, too. So Adam escorted
her into the bathroom.
Josh jumped into bed with me. Grandpa Louie you don't have any clothes
on. I quickly pulled on a pair of shorts. Debbie climbed into bed beside
Josh. Adam was told to get on one side and I had to get on the other. All
four of us were in bed. I must say there we were a bit crowded. The kids
finally dropped of to sleep.
Adam reached across the kids and shook me. "Louie, are you asleep?" He
whispered.
"Just about, why?"
"Meet me in the other room and you'll find out!'
Adam stopped by the bathroom and got a large bath towel and spread it
over the sofa. "Louie do you have any lube and condoms in the bathroom?"
"No, but I can sneak in and get some out of the bedroom."
" You had better be quite and not wake the kids. My ass is on fire and I
need some cooling off and I don't mean a cold shower, either!"
When I returned Adam had already removed his shorts and was standing
there nude and grinning from ear to ear. I wasted not time getting out of
mine. Adams had his arms around my neck and was French kissing me. We
were both hard as rocks. Adam took the condom and slipped it on me. He
bent over the sofa and pulled his butt cheeks apart. I swear I saw his
pucker wink. I wasted no time putting a large glob of lube on him and
slipped a couple of fingers into his hole.
"Take it easy entering me and then I like it hard and fast." Adam purred.
I had not problem entering Adam. He knew what he was doing and had
relaxed and was pushing out making it easy for me to enter him. He gave
me a ride that I will never forget. He was so tight and knew how to
please me. I must have been satisfying him. He was moaning and groaning
softy as not to wake the kids. After a long and wild time, I finally came
and fell to on the sofa exhausted. Adam knew what he was doing when he
brought the towel with him. Adam and I lay there hugging each other. We
both started to get hard at the same time. "Guess what I have?" holding
up a second condom. "My turn to bottom. I want to see what kind of lover
you are! Put this on and lets get started!"
Adam was a terrific and could work magic with that dick of his. I gave
him my all and he returned my efforts. Soon we were both ready for the
shower. I sent Adam in first and cleaned up the mess and plugged in an
air refresher. I couldn't have the motorhome smelling like a whorehouse.
Adam and I quietly crawled back into bed and were asleep in no time at
all.
I was up early and had breakfast ready at 8.00. Gene, Sarah, and Tim
arrive right on time.
"Grandma! Grandma! You have to yell at Uncle Adam and Grandpa Louie.
Uncle Adam was going to sleep in just his shorts and Grandpa Louie
didn't even have those on. Why do I have wear pajamas?" Josh exclaimed!
Adam and I wanted to find an hole and climb in to hide. Gene, Sarah, and
Tim started laughing again.
