Chapter 10 – Papers

I woke up the next morning to see Bryson laying back against my chest,
while Mitch was spooned up behind me. I guess the little guy woke up afraid
last night, so he came to find me. He always did that whenever he stayed
with my parents overnight back in DC. Although I was physically at peace
this morning, my mind had a different story to tell. I was thinking about
all of the things that had occurred since my arrival here in South
Carolina. I softly chuckled to myself at the thought of my life being like
a bad TV Show at times. I slowly removed myself from Mitch's and Bryson's
grasp, grabbed my robe, and then headed downstairs.

It was a little after 5 am, and I wanted to get a couple minutes of peace
before everyone else woke up. I went into the kitchen, and started some
coffee. I sat at the breakfast nook table, just continuing my thoughts from
earlier. I was so thankful that Mitch had come into my life, and with his
arrival I also gained two beautiful boys I could call sons. It was a
miracle that both my parents, and Mitch's dad were supportive in our
relationship. Most people aren't ever this fortunate to have supportive
parents when it comes to a lifestyles like ours. The only thing that is
really causing major issues right now is Rebecca.

I just can't understand how someone could be so hateful. The sad thing is,
she's not upset about not being with Mitch or the boys: it's the fact that
she now no longer can manipulate or control him and his money. Money has
been the last thing on my mind whenever it comes to Mitch - I'm in love
with him, not with what he can do for me financially. I'm in love with the
little boys whom he wants us to raise together, not his money. I'm in love
with the possibilities of the future we could share. Sure money is nice,
but money can't buy happiness.

As I was sitting at the table drinking my morning coffee, Mitch came up
behind the chair I was sitting him and wrapped his arms around me. I leaned
my head back for my morning kiss, which Mitch obliged in giving me. He said
"Good Morning baby, are you ok?" I replied, "Yes, baby.  I just wanted some
time to think before everyone woke up." He said, "I woke up when I didn't
feel you in bed anymore. I guess Bryson woke up afraid last night. After
you got out of bed, he snuggled up against me, because when I woke up he
was backed up against my chest softly snoring." I laughed at that and said,
"Sorry babe, I should have warned you about that. Bryson has always ended
up sleeping with me whenever I'm around. He wakes up afraid and then comes
to find me." Mitch said "It's cool babe.  I'm just glad he's comfortable
enough around me to not be afraid to sleep in the same bed as you and I." I
smiled at him and said "Well he already calls you Uncle, so now it's set in
stone. He's comfortable enough to nap on you now as well. You can't go
anywhere now!" Mitch reached down to kiss me again and said "Try and make
me."

Mitch made himself a cup of coffee, and then he came sat across from me at
the table. He took a sip, and then said, "So tell me what's on your mind
this morning that's got you up so early, tiger?" I took a sip of my coffee
and relayed my thoughts to him. After I finished he said, "Listen babe, I
don't want you to worry about Rebecca. I've always had a feeling that she
might pull some type of stunt like this. She's a selfish individual, the
sad thing is she wasn't always like this. When I first met her, I thought
she was the love of my life. So I spoiled her, and constantly gave into
her. Her parents were no better in doing the same thing I found out later
after we were married. After they passed, they left her a huge sum of
money. I'm not even sure how much, I never asked. I just know that it was
pretty substantial. Her father was some type of real estate magnate here in
the South. So, they were extremely well-off. I'm guessing she has already
blown through that money.  I'm not sure how. But, that's the only reason I
can think of her wanting to come back here."

Around that time Bryson walked sleepily down the stairs, and climbed into
Mitch's lap. He laid his head on Mitch's chest, and went right back to
sleep. I looked at Mitch and quietly laughed. Mitch just looked at me and
said, "Jealous!" I laughed and decided to get up and start breakfast for
everyone. I had just finished breakfast for the adults and Bryson, and was
starting on the twins'bottles when my mom and dad walked downstairs with
them. My little guys were again quite animated this morning as they were
talking up a storm. I gave my mom and dad a bottle for each of my sons, and
I then sat about fixing breakfast for everyone else. Bryson had awakened
enough and was eating some breakfast off Mitch's plate, since he was still
in Mitch's lap.

After breakfast, Mitch and my dad took the three boys upstairs to get them
ready for the day. My mom and I stayed behind to clean up the aftermath of
breakfast. About half way through she asked, "How are you feeling about all
of this, Papo?" I replied, "To be honest, I'm a little afraid. I don't want
to lose Mitch nor my sons, Mom. They all mean so much to me. It would be
hard at this point if I had to give them up." My mom put her towel down,
and she then came up to hug me. She said, "I know, baby, but don't think
like that. You won't have to give any of them up, unless you absolutely
want to. To be honest I think they are in a worse position when it comes
down to losing you. I see the way Mitchell looks at you whenever you two
are in the same room as each other...it's the same way your father looks at
me. And don't get me started on my new grandsons. Whenever they see you,
it's the same way a baby lights up when its mother walks into the room."
She then walked over to me and put both hands on the side of my face and
kissed me on my forehead. She then said, "They both love and need you just
like we need you, Papo. You have a way of brightening peoples' lives with
your presence. Never, ever forget that!"

I hugged my mom, and we went about finishing cleaning the kitchen. Not too
long after that Mitch and the rest of my guys walked downstairs all dressed
for the day. Mitch walked over to me and gave me Aiden so that he could go
upstairs to get dressed and ready, while my dad did the same with Alex. My
little guy automatically started cooing and smiling as soon as he saw
me. My heart immediately started to warm as I laid eyes on him. My mom saw
this little interaction between us and said, "I told you so, Papo. Look at
you: You're practically glowing." I smiled at her and said, "I know, Mom: I
just love these little guys so much." She walked over to me with Alex and
kissed me on the cheek and said, "I know, Papo. I do too."

The rest of the morning consisted of us getting my mom ready to leave for
DC. We had her ready to go by 10:30. When we were packing Mom's car, Bryson
realized that he wasn't staying with Mitch and me. He ran to Mitch and
hopped in his arms, and started crying saying "I don't wanna go, Unca
Mitch. I wanna stay here with you and Unca Tony and my new cousins!"  Mitch
kissed Bryson's forehead and said, "I know little guy, but you have to go
back home. I promise Uncle Tony and I will let you come back here to visit
soon. Or, we will come visit you very soon ok?" Bryson sniffled and wiped
his eyes and said, "You pwomise?" Mitch gave his forehead another kiss and
said, "I promise, little man. Now give me a kiss so that we can finish
getting Nana and Papa ready to go, ok?" Bryson gave Mitch a kiss on the
lips and then hopped down to go over there to visit with his new cousins
before he left. I looked at Mitch and he winked at me. I was so amazed by
this beautiful man in how he just handled himself in every situation he was
in.

My mom, dad, and Bryson hit the road not too long after that. The rest of
the day was pretty uneventful. I went into the office for a bit while Mitch
stayed home with the boys. After I got home, Mitch decided that he was
going to go out for a run since he hadn't been on one since the boys were
born last. I decided to get some things squared away in the house while he
went for his run. I cleaned up, and cooked dinner for Mitch and me -
nothing out of the ordinary, steak, shrimp, and loaded baked
potatoes. Mitch was satisfied, and he gave me a nice long thank you kiss
afterwards. We got our sons ready for bed and we got ourselves in bed not
too long after. We didn't do anything overly sexual that night - just some
heavy petting and kissing. Mitch held me extra close that night. I wasn't
sure why but I didn't complain. I liked being so close to him, it was as if
he was pulling me inside him, making me a part of his body.

The next morning I woke up to find Mitch not in bed with me. I put my robe
on, and went downstairs to see Mitch cooking breakfast for our sons and
us. The boys were already downstairs in their bassinet wide awake playing
with each other. I walked over and gave my little guys each a big good
morning kiss and tickle to both their delights. I repeated the same
treatment with my big guy as well. He was little more appreciative of my
kiss then the boys, because he pulled me into him and I felt his massive
love tool growing between us. I reached into his robe and squeezed his
massive meat, and he moaned into my mouth. He pulled away from my mouth,
and said, "Good morning, Tiger...I see you want sausage instead of bacon."
I laughed and gave his cock another squeeze and said, "I'm always up for
some fresh Brown sausage..." Mitch laughed and squeezed both of my ass
cheeks and reached in for another long passionate kiss.

After we ate breakfast Mitch left me with the boys to go get ready for the
day. He wanted to go into the office this morning to get some things done,
while I stayed home with the boys.  He came downstairs dressed in a nice
custom tailored suit. I instantly boned up at the sight of him. I walked
over to him helped him adjust his tie. He reached his hand in my robe, and
pulled my ass cheeks apart. He ran his fingers up and down my hole,
tickling my rosebud. I moaned and said, "Mitch...if you don't stop I'm
going to strip you naked right now...and..." He kissed me and continued
stroking and teasing my hole. He finally stopped when he realized that I
was making a wet spot on the front of his suit. He laughed and said,
"That's just a preview of what I'm going to do to you when I get home from
work. Now go get a shower and get dressed so I can get out of here and get
home sooner to my three men." He kissed me again, and slapped my ass as I
headed up the stairs.

I went upstairs to shower, and came back down about 20 minutes later. Mitch
was over at the twins' bassinet talking to our sons. He was saying "Now you
two be good for your Daddy Tony. Dad will be home soon to see you guys
ok. I love you boys." He then kissed each one on the forehead. He realized
that I was in the room, and he walked over to me and gave me my own goodbye
kiss. He then grabbed his briefcase and headed out the door. I went over to
the boys` bassinet, and rolled it down the hall to the office. I was going
to work on some of the cases I brought home from work yesterday. The
morning seemed to fly by and soon it was lunch time. I fed the boys and got
them down for a nap. I then dove back into the case files so I could send
them off to Lisa to get to their respective partners at the firm.

Meanwhile at the law firm, Mitch's day was just as busy as mine. He had a
lot to go over since he'd been out of the office since the previous
week. He was in and out of meeting with his dad throughout the bulk of the
day since he had taken on the bulk of Mitch's cases while he was out. At
about 2:00, Lisa came into Mitch's office and said, "Mitch, there's a
gentlemen up here at the front who wants to speak with you." Mitch was
confused because he hadn't informed anyone that he was coming in today, so
he said "That's odd.  Do you know who it is?" She replied, "I'm not sure,
Sir, but he says that it's urgent." Mitch got up and headed downstairs to
the main lobby of the firm. When he got there, he saw a tall male dressed
in a suit. The man's face curled into a smile when he saw Mitch approaching
him. Mitch walked up and extended his hand and said. "Mitchell Brown, how
can I help you?" The man just plainly ignored Mitch's out-stretched hand
and said, "I'm here to serve you divorce papers in connection with Rebecca
Brown." He then gave Mitch the papers, and then walked off. Lisa, who was
standing there, just stared at the man angrily as he walked off. She then
looked at Mitch who hadn't really moved an inch since the man handed him
the papers. She shook him and said, "Mitch I know you are in shock but you
need to go upstairs to your office. I'll phone your father."

Mitch walked off to the elevator to his office in a daze. He got to his
office, and just sat at his desk. He didn't even attempt to open the
envelope containing the divorce paperwork. He knew the day would come when
Rebecca would serve him papers but he didn't know it would be this
soon. Mr. Brown walked in not too long after Mitch had got settled. He saw
the state his son was in, and he walked over behind Mitch's desk and gave
him a long hug. He then said, "Where are the papers, Son?" Mitch just
looked toward the desk, and Mitch's father picked them up and said, "Let's
get Francine down here to look these over."

Ten minutes later Francine walked into Mitch's office. She, too, hugged
Mitch who looked defeated. She took the papers and read over them. She took
a deep breath after scanning through them and said, "Mitch, I'm sorry, but
Rebecca is not only seeking spousal support. She is also asking for her
temporary removal of you from your home. She feels that she has been
forcibly removed due to a new relationship. On top of this, she is also
seeking full custody of your children, and child support payments for each.
She is petitioning a family court judge to get temporary full custody of
the boys until a proper court date is set. She is doing this on the basis
of claims of an unsafe environment due to an unnatural relationship.
Rebecca is really pulling out all of the stops in this. We all know how
South Carolina feels about divorces and children. And even worse their
stance on gay parents and children. This isn't going to be easy, Mitch. I'm
going to be honest with you. We have to act fast." Mitch couldn't do or say
anything. He just sat his desk as tears began rolling down his face. The
only thing he could think of was Tony and their sons. He felt as if his
life was crashing before his eyes.
