Denial (boyxboy)

Chapter 29

Jeffrey's P.O.V.

I watched Sky looking dreamily out the livingroom window while fondling his engagement ring. The love I have for him just swelled in my heart. I knew precisely what he was thinking. It was about me and our future together. I smiled to myself.

I've had us hold up in the condo like prisoners not really wanting the outside world to touch us. Jacob was the only one who could penetrate our secure cocoon of bliss. If there was anything really pressing regarding work, he would come here directly.

There wasn't a part of this condo that Sky and I had not made love in over the past couple of days. He says he can never get enough of me. He drives me wild so it's a win, win. God how I love him. The thought of not having him in my life hurts me so deeply that it takes my breath.

He sees me watching him, smiles and comes over to me and sucks my bottom lip with his own. Then he goes into the bedroom. As I go to follow him Jacob barges in with none other than Hammish. My blood runs cold as now, we enter the unknown. I look over at Ellis in the kitchen and not needing to say anything, he immediately heads for the bedroom hopefully to keep Sky in there while I deal with Hammish.

Jacob comes over to me and says, "I'm sorry Jeff but there was no denying him. Hammish is possessed in this need to see you. What's going on?" "Why don't you tell him who you are Hammish.", I say to him. "I want to see him. I need to know if it's really him. I-I please Jeffrey.", Hammish pleads. "Tell him who you are, now.", I said with an I'm not taking any bullshit tone of voice.

"Jacob, you know the business side of my life but long ago, I was entrusted with the care of a very important and very special boy. Because of the connections my family has, this responsibilty that was entrusted to me goes back generations. You see I'm the Godfather of none other than Skyler Hans Hjerte VIII and the executor of his estate until he comes of age.", Hammish replies.

Jacob is shocked as we've been doing business with Hammish since the inception of our own company. We consider him a trusted friend. I only knew this because Hammish's family ran in the same circles as mine. Just as he was about to comment, my heart stops for just a moment as the bedroom door opens with Sky yelling out, "I'm not a fucking child. What do you mean stay in the bedroom. Where the hell is Jeff..." He stops as he pales and looks directly at Hammish and says, "Uncle Hame?

They run towards each other sobbing and crying hysterically they hug each other like the reunion it should have been. "I can't believe it's you. Skyler you're so big and handsome and-and...", Hammish sobbed out. The emotions were raw but true. Sky walks out of Hammish's embrace and walks over to me and plants himself infront of me with his back against my front. I wrap all of me around all of him.

"How did you find me?", asks Sky to which Hammish responds, "The one Hjerte weakness. Dancing! The picture of your night out at the club with Jeffrey. What happened? Why did you run away? Did you really refuse your destiny?"

"Tell him Sky!", I said and he proceeded to tell the story of the horrible night that changed his life forever. He even managed, with my help, to show Hammish the physical damage that Sky's father had done. The look of horror that Hammish had on his face and the disbelief of it all was too much to bear and he collapsed onto the sofa.

"Skyler, everything's going to be okay!", Hammish said but Skyler whispered out, "How? How are you going to keep me away from HIM. He'll find out and then WHAT!" "Oh my God, you don't know do you. Sky he can't ever hurt you again. Oh God...your parents died six months ago in a plane crash. We've kept it quiet in a desperate attempt to find you. Skyler, it's yours. All of it. You are the sole heir of Hjerte Inc. He tried to have the will changed but as you know your predecessors were meticulous.. Without a replacement, even in death it would still be all yours. You are the most powerful man alive."

Sky turn around in my arms to face me and said, "Jeff, w-with-out you, I-I...what he d-did to-to me that night is n-nothing compared to t-the pain I'll feel. I want to spend the rest of my life with you." He is shaking so badly with how hard he's sobbing but I tip his face up to mine and say to him, "SJEL MATT. I will follow you wherever. You can't get rid of me that easy.", and then I kiss him so longingly that I'm pretty sure I heard Jacob and Hammish sigh.
