Power Games

How the fuck could I be so stupid not to recognise that fact much earlier than it was, the sole reason why I knew Tash’s face was because she was my brother’s girlfriend for so fucking long growing up and I guarantee that she knew who I was when I was with Danny.

I don’t know what to do now with what I know, should I bother telling Danny and potentially causing more issues than what is already happening or just ignore it. My afternoon feels really off just trying to figure everything out. I don’t want to keep annoying Mitch by asking for information every five minutes but at the same time, I don’t know what to do with the information because it could hurt many people if I keep it secret.

Just needing to escape, I go for a drive and park at the Yellow Peak lookout and just sit on the hood of the car trying to just take my mind off everything. I know that Tash didn’t marry Danny for all this but it’s just turning out to be a coincidence and convenient for my brother that everything fell into place.

I sit there for a while, just wishing that this chaotic drama would disappear and I could just go back to living in peace without being spied on and that I don’t need to be looking over my shoulder every two minutes. Sitting and watching the sunset, my phone rings a few times and I just ignore it without even looking because right now I can’t say anything to anyone, and then if I do it feels like I’m lying to them with all the information that I have especially Danny.

It starts getting cold and I jump in the car and head home, parking my car in the driveway and I head straight inside and take a shower before getting into bed and just listening to some music. I put my phone on charge in the living room so that I have an excuse for not answering any calls or texts.

Laying in bed, all I do is toss and turn my mind not switching off at all with everything that happened today and then what is going to happen. Suddenly, it feels like the next morning and it’s a blur of what I did before I got to work but I’m there and everything is going well until eventually I get told that the visitor has arrived and wants to see the offices and all the staff in the shift.

Begrudgingly I walk out to see the entourage of my father and all the crew, my brother standing behind him. I look across at them and just wander out initially being nice “Afternoon Dad, Brendan” I say as they just give me a smarmy glare. I listen to them talk and see them just ignoring my presence and that’s when all my frustrations build up and I just let swing on my brother’s jaw watching him fall to the ground.

Standing over the top of his fallen personage I stand there for a minute as I hear Danny calling out at me “What the fuck did you that for?” he says running over and grabbing me. “This is me finally doing what I needed to do all along, actually show them that I can be tough and that I can be the boss of my own life alright?”.

The security that travels with my father comes rushing over and grabs hold of me and tackles me to the ground “Let me go, you bastards, I’m fucking family” trying to wrestle my way out of it as they pull me up off the ground. I look at my father “I don’t know how that you can ever say that you’re a family man when at the end of the day you pushed me out here so that you could rather become Prime Minister than treat care for your family”.

Dragged up by the security off the ground, I look at my brother bleeding and clutching his mouth as I look at him “You’ve been using people in this town for a reason that has nothing to do with them and I learnt why you were so insistent on pushing me out here and that you spied on me” I manage to get from the security and again whack Brendan this time across the other side of his mouth and then I put one on my father's chin.

I look around as I start to hear a lot of banging around even though I can’t see and I quickly realise that I was asleep and now I lay there feeling all sick and prickly just panicked out of my brain. I lay there for a minute and realise that it’s the next morning and I get up out of bed and go and open my front door and see Adam and Danny standing at my front door. “We got worried about you because we didn’t hear from you last night when we called and again this morning there was no answer when we came knocking so we got worried,” Adam says raising his voice like I am a naughty child for ignoring his phone call.

“Sorry, I just wanted to shut everything out last night and try and get some sleep,” I notice that I’m still standing just in a very short pair of sleep shorts which show off my thighs and legs and I realise that my cock and balls are obviously showing in the shorts. Adam can’t help but glance at it every so often as he notices the information sitting on my laptop still on the table even though he blocks Danny from seeing it I’d rather him not see all this.

I grab a pair of shorts and put them on and sit down at the table “If you don’t feel like you can handle coming in today then you don’t have to” turning to Danny I shake my head. “Nah, if they see me not there, they will think that they’re right about me not being able to manage my own life” Adam nods but agrees with Danny “You sure it’s wise being there, if things go bad then you know that you won’t be able to control yourself and I worry that if your brother is there he might bait you”.

Shaking my head, I definitely know that I want to be there today because ultimately, I think this is more about trying to prove myself to me rather than proving anything to anybody else today that I can handle these things. “I just need to prove to myself that I can do this rather than proving it to anybody else,” I say as Danny and Adam both nod to me. “Well I’ll drive you to work today man because if anything goes down I want to make sure that you’ll be fine and that we can keep our eye on you,” Danny says to me and Adam nods “I’m off class this afternoon, so I’ll be here to make sure that you’re alright”.

Feeling a touch smothered by all this I reluctantly accept their offer because I know that it is coming from a good place and a caring one at that. Adam excuses himself as he goes off to school and Danny wants to take me to the gym but I’d prefer not to so instead I convince him to go for a run with me which suits me better. We run for about an hour before getting back to my place, I watch him chase me down as I get back to my place first.

“That was good, so are you going to get changed here or back at your place” asking him as he sits down on my front step, “Probably just here if that’s cool to borrow your shower”. I nod “Of course it is, just let me have a decent amount of water when you’re done” asking Danny as I punch his shoulder. I wander back to my laptop and pull out my phone and ring Mitch, he answers the phone “Hey man, I haven’t had a chance to get any information for you yet been busy working”.

“It’s cool, I can’t talk long but we’ve got a major problem,” I say glancing to make sure that Danny is out of earshot in the bathroom. “What do you know about Tash?” I ask him curiously to see what he knows and whether I should at least tell him or even Adam anything.

“Honestly, that other than she can be a complete bitch, not a lot, she came out here about 10 years ago, connected with Danny and they had kids and then got married” I head outside in case Danny gets out of the shower as Mitch keeps talking. “Look, in all honesty, there has always been something about her that I’ve never trusted especially with all the time she spends in Grantham”.

I sit there nodding, closing the front door for a few minutes “Danny’s here now so I can’t really talk but there is something big that probably puts a few things in perspective but at the same time, I don’t know whether it is truly worth it”. Mitch sits there nodding, “Well if you know anything then it can only help in our challenge to settle everything down”.

“Our challenge?” curious about why Mitch is taking this so personally at the moment, “Yeah our challenge bro, I’m gonna help you out of this situation and then maybe I can tackle my situation with my father,” he says down the phone. “Yeah alright, look how about I come by the office tonight, about 6:30ish?” asking so that we can talk. “Come by my place and we can work out of the spare room alright and you can share what you have for me” I agree but before I can hang up Mitch speaks “Good luck today brother, remember you’ve got this,” he says as I hang up.

Danny just in his towel opens my front door, “Everything ok man, was wondering where you’d got to” he says still dripping wet as I can’t help but stare at his body. “Yeah it’s all good, just had a phone call from Mitch so we were just talking that is all,” I say to Danny as we both head back inside.

 Heading back inside, I sneakily watch Danny dressing, imaging that night where he was broken and so drunk that he couldn’t keep his hands off me and then when we fucked. Part of me knows that I want it to happen again but if I ever told Danny what would happen, it would be absolutely heartbreaking for him to know about it.

I go take my shower, wondering whether I have time to have a jerk or not, I let the water run over my body as I feel my cock hard between my legs. In the end, I can’t help but slowly run my hands over my cock, slowly rubbing it and massaging my balls as I tug my cock.

Feeling my hands running over my body and cock, I jerk not realising that I’m moaning pretty loudly as the pre builds and I keep running my hands over my thighs which is making my cock leaking really hard. I pick up the speed and blow a thick wad of cum onto the shower floor, feeling amazing after letting out the load, not sure whether or not Danny has heard me but I don’t care.

I dry off and head to my room and get dressed rather quickly and head out to Danny sitting on my couch “You took your sweet time in there, all ready?” he says looking at me. “Yeah sorry, I was just getting prepared you know… mentally,” I say as Danny laughs. “Right mentally, guess having a wank is the best way to prepare,” he says joking.

I shrug not denying that was what I was doing but at the same time, I’m not admitting that I was having a jerk at the same time. My mind is cleared and I’m ready to tackle whatever happens this afternoon with my father turning up whether he wants to see me or not is going to be the question of the day.
