Bennie and the Ace of Hearts

Chapter 5

Bennie

I woke wrapped in the arms of the man of my dreams, I felt him stir as he pulled me closer. I turned to face him and kissed him good morning.

I asked, “how did you sleep sexy?”

Adam smiled, “with your dick in my ass crack.”

I chuckled, “sorry, I can’t help it, that thing has a mind of its own, it just perks up whenever you are around.”

He shook his head, “I’ll take that as a compliment.”

I gave him a peck, “of course you will, that’s how I meant it. How about we take a shower?”

Adam kissed me back, “that sounds like a good idea.”

We crawled out of bed, I watched him walk across the room toward the bathroom, damn, he was gorgeous. That beautiful ebony skin was so smooth, except for the small patch of hair above his magnificent uncut cock he was completely hairless. His cut chest with those two Hershey Kiss nipples just aching to be sucked. I loved the feel of his skin against mine as we cuddled in bed the night before. I followed him into the shower after I grabbed the towels from the cabinet. Once we were under water, we couldn’t pry our lips apart. We worked our way down until we sucked each other to completion. Reluctantly we got out of the shower when Adam said he needed to get to work.

I made some coffee while Adam got dressed, I handed him a cup when he walked into the kitchen.

Adam took a sip of coffee, “I am really glad you sat at my table yesterday.”

I wrapped my arms around his shoulders, “that makes two of. I’m glad you accepted my invitation to dinner.” He gave a kiss and smiled that sexy smile.

Adam turned to leave, “thanks for diner and well… everything else, see you later.”

I said, “your welcome, anything for my Ace of Hearts.”

I busied myself around the house, did a quick check on the FBI site to see if there was anything new on the Cabot investigation, there wasn’t. While I was there, I looked for any other cases that I might want to check out, I wasn’t going to try anything just yet. The whole Cabot thing had to be settled before I went any further.

Adam and I continued to talk daily and go out every few days. I had really fallen for this guy, there was nothing that I didn’t like about him. He called me and we set up a lunch date for the next day.

I decided to take the Mustang to my lunch with Adam, it just felt like a Mustang kind of day. I parked in front of Adam’s office a few minutes before 1 and went inside.

The guy at the front desk looked me up and down as I walked in.

I smiled, “hi, I’m here to see Adam.”

He narrowed his eyes, he yelled over his shoulder, “Adam, Richie Rich is here.”

Adam said, “Dallas, be nice.”

Dallas nodded his head toward an office, “he’s in there.”

I walked past Dallas and flashed a huge smile, “thanks Dallas, that’s a very nice shirt you have on. I donated one just like it to the Goodwill a couple of years ago, when it went out of style.” I walked in to see Adam trying to stifle a laugh.

I said loud enough for Dallas to hear, “hey babe, are you ready for lunch?”

Adam shook his head, “yes, give a minute to finish this email.” He lowered his voice, “do I need to tell you to be nice too?”

I tried to look shocked, “I was being nice.”

He closed his laptop and said, “ok, ready to go.” We walked out, then to Dallas, “I’m going to lunch, should be back in an hour.”

I stirred the pot, “it was really great to meet you, Dallas.” I may have had a smug look on my face as Dallas gave me a death glare.

We got into the Mustang and headed to the restaurant. Adam said, “nice car.”

I shifted gears, “thanks, I bring it out when I feel like showing off a little bit.”

He looked at me, “oh, do you have other cars for your other moods?”

I nodded, “well, maybe a couple.” I told him about my cars as we pulled into the parking lot.

We continued to share things about our lives as we ate our lunch. Adam filled me in on the situation with Dallas.

He said, “we dated after we worked on a case back in DC. He moved out here with me when I started my agency and we lived together. I guess we get along better if we don’t spend 24 hours a day together. He still gets a little jealous if I date, but he’s not a bad guy.”

I said, “well, I love a challenge, I’m sure we will be best of friends by the end of the week.”

He laughed, “why do I have a feeling there will be a lot of jabs at each other between you two?”

We finished our lunch, I drove Adam back to his office. Dallas was gone, we walked in, and Adam picked up a note on his desk, “he went to lunch, and I have a phone call to return.”

I asked, “so are you still working on the Cabot Case?”

He gave me a look, “um, yeah. How do you know about that?”

I thought quickly, “oh, I talked to him at a fund raiser a couple weeks ago, he said he had some trouble and that he was hiring you to look into it.”

Adam nodded, “oh, yeah you probably would know him, I seem to forget you run in those circles.”

I said, “I know him, I’m not sure we run in the same circles, to be honest, I’m really not a Cabot fan.”

Adam asked, “why is that?”

“I’m not sure why, but the first time we met, he just rubbed me the wrong way. I don’t know what it is.” I replied.

He nodded, “yeah, I can see that, he tends to think he’s above most people.”

I continued, “and besides, I lose respect for people that are being investigated by the FBI, I guess I kind of feel they deserve to have a little bad luck.”

Adam sat down, “yeah maybe. Hey, look I need to return this call. Oh, by the way, my sister invited me over to her house Friday night for dinner, would you like to come with me?”

I smiled, “I would like that, I would love to meet her.” I gave him a quick kiss.

He chuckled, “don’t say you would love to meet her until you actually meet her.”

I looked back at Adam, “oh, something I should prepare for?”

He said, “just don’t expect to be welcomed with open arms.”

I grinned, “see you Friday night.”

I wasn’t too worried about Adam’s sister, I can usually hold my own against people like her.

Friday rolled around, Adam picked me up and we were on our way to Claire’s house.

He wanted to prepare me, “Claire still refuses to believe that I am gay, I’ll bet you $100 that she tells me about one of her single friends that would just love to go out with me, within the first 5 minutes.”

I chuckled, “I’ll just turn on the old Bennie charm and she will be eating out of my hand before we sit down to eat.”

Adam burst out laughing, “keep up that optimism, just don’t be upset when things don’t turn out that way.”

I said, “shit, now you have me worried.”

He said, “just relax, don’t be upset by anything she says, I just ignore most of her comments.”

We pulled into an exclusive neighborhood and up to an expensive looking house. I followed Adam to the door as he rang the bell. A little girl, who looked about 8 or 9 opened the door. A big smile came across her face as she jumped into Adam’s arms.

“Uncle Adam” She turned her head toward the house, “mom, Uncle Adam is here.”

Adam returned her hug, “hi Audrey, you are getting so big.”

I heard from inside, “well, maybe you should come visit more often.”

He put Audrey down, “don’t start with me Claire, the street goes both directions you know.”

She gave Adam a hug and saw me standing off to the side. Adam pointed to me, “this is my friend Bennie.” He turned to me, “Bennie, this is Claire and Audrey.”

I gave my best smile, “nice to meet you both.” I extended my hand for a handshake, Claire turned away said, “well, come on in, dinner is almost ready.”

As we walked into the dining room, Adam reached down and scooped up a 5-year-old, “hey Alex, how’s my best buddy?”

He held tight to the car he was playing with as he looked me over and gave Adam a hug.

Claire started stirring something on the stove, “oh Adam, I talked to Heather Watson the other day and she asked about you, she is single again, I told her I would give you, her number.”

I handed him a hundred-dollar bill.

“Claire, I do not want Heather’s or any of your other single friend’s phone number and you know why. I just introduced you to Bennie, I am seeing him right now.”

I was busting to say something, anything, “don’t you think we make an adorable couple.” Is what I settled on. I put a huge grin and my face and grabbed Adam’s arm.

Claire just grunted, “God Adam, why can’t you just try dating women, instead of… this?” She waved her hand at me.

I was clearly offended, “listen here missy, I am one hell of a catch, anyone would be lucky to have me.”

Adam put his hand up, “ok, that’s enough you two. Claire, Bennie is my boyfriend, you will be respectful when you talk to or about him. Bennie, you will also treat Claire with the same respect.”

I held his arm tighter, “yes dear.” I laid my head on his shoulder.

Claire rolled her eyes and turned back to the stove. Fortunately, the front door opened and both kids ran to the door yelling “daddy’s home.”

He walked around the corner with both kids in his arms, “hey Adam good to see you.” He set the kids down to shake Adam’s hand.

Adam turned to me, “Dave this…”

Dave took my hand, “Bennett, how nice to see you again.”

I said, “David, yes, it’s great to see you too.”

Claire quickly turned to Dave, “how do you know him?”

Dave said, “my firm has handled some legal paperwork for the Harlow Youth Center, Bennett here is the one that signs on behalf of the Harlow family.”

Claire was stunned, “you mean you are Bennett Harlow?” I nodded. She continued, “Adam, why didn’t you tell me that when you introduced him?”

Adam looked at his sister, “Why, does it make a difference who is family is?”

“Well, I’m sorry, if I would have known who you were…”

Adam broke in, “oh, if he’s my boyfriend, you want nothing to do with him, but since he’s rich you now want to be best friends.”

I took Adam’s hand, “it’s ok, I’m used to it.”

Dave chimed in, “Claire, you think you would have learned by now, try to be nice to people, you never know who they might be.” He turned to Adam and me, “so you guys are dating?”

I snuggled up to Adam, “yep, it was love at first sight.”

I watched as Claire fought back the urge to say something. She set the food on the table, and we ate and talked.

Dave kept Claire in check and Adam attempted to try to keep me under control, I will admit, a few comments that could be considered sarcastic, may have slipped out.

Adam and I got in the car to leave, as soon as we were on the street, I said, “well, I just felt the love.”

Adam snickered, “the look on Claire’s face when Dave told her who were was priceless.”

I chuckled, “yeah, that was pretty good, I had no idea Dave was your brother-in-law.”

He said, “it never dawned on me that you may know him either, of course he doesn’t talk about his clients.”

We drove in silence for a while and when we pulled into my driveway, I asked Adam if he wanted to spend the night, he of course agreed.

I loved it when he stayed over, I could never get enough his sexy body. I had stroked or kissed every inch of it. Every time I saw that sweet uncut cock, my own dick would spring to life, and oh that ass, my cock was a perfect fit, Adam couldn’t get enough of me filling his hole. The best part was being wrapped in arms all night, it was always a nice way to wake up.

We were laying there the next morning, neither of us wanting to get out of bed.

Adam said, “can I ask you a question?”

I kissed his lips, “of course, anything.”

“The morning after our first night together, when I was leaving, why did you call me your Ace of Hearts?” He asked.

I thought back, shit I let that slip. I decided to come clean, “well, after we met in the coffee shop, I did a search on you, and I came across your profile on that dating site. I thought it was a cute screen name.”

He chuckled, “oh damn, I forgot about that site, I set that profile up for a case I was working on.”

Relieved, I said, “it’s ok if you used a dating site, it’s not a big deal.”

“I know, but I honestly, I only used it for that case. I have one more question for you.” He said.

“Ok, what is it?”

He leaned on his elbow as he looked at me, “how did you know John Cabot was being investigated by the FBI?”
