Fixation (Clusterf*ck Series #1) 24. Multitasking
"Hey boss, how are you feeling?" Sloan peeked into his room telling him that dinner was ready. "Ugh...the pills are making me sleepy." "Maybe it's because your body needs to heal." "Yeah, but right now I'm getting hungry." Hendry drank his water before grumpily getting out of bed and followed Sloan to the kitchen. "How's work?" "Meh, it'll still be there tomorrow." Sloan waived his hand to let the matter go, though he still told him about the meetings Sloan had rescheduled and gave Hendry details about the internal meetings that he takes notes for his boss to look at later. "And by later, I mean tomorrow though I still think that it'll be too soon for you to go to work." "I'm bored," Hendry complained. "I know, but I thought me being here was distraction enough for you." He winked and that finally got Hendry to smile. Sloan didn't tell him about Brody's visit, he was concerned that it'll trigger his drinking. He was going to wait until he talked to Brody before going through wit

"You did what?" Hendry was giving him a look as if he couldn't believe what Sloan said when he got back from his lunch appointment. Hendry had said that he dreaded talking to the board members, he said that they were a bunch of stuck-up middle-aged dudes who talk constantly about their trophy wives or summer houses abroad. He told Sloan that if it wasn't for making nice with his dad's friends Hendry would never agree to the meet. "I met with Brody for lunch. Um...this was because he came to your place last night," "He what?" "Argh... really Hendry, is there something wrong with your hearing?" Sloan almost rolled his eyes, but he decided to close the door of his boss's office instead. "Look, Brody came, he met my mom who accidentally mentioned you being hospitalized. Then when I was back, I found him watching you sleep. It...Hendry, it was why I thought of this, just hear me first, okay?" Hendry nodded though his eyes held so many questions he looked like he was ready to burst. "

Hendry didn't expect to blurt out his feelings for Sloan. Yes, it was overwhelming for him to say that he loves his assistant. But in a way he did. He felt the warm nagging feeling since the day he had dinner with Sloan's family. It was amazing to be easily out with the whole family. He had never experienced such freedom, and he was embracing it. Everything falls into place when both Sloan and his mom actually take care of him when he had alcohol poisoning, that was a first. He knew he drank too much, too fast, but he didn't think that he would get alcohol poisoning. He was ashamed at that and he felt like an ass for giving them the hassle of taking care of him, though Hendry secretly liked the attention. "Hey, where did you go just now?" He smiled as Sloan asked, snuggling and resting his hand on his chest. Sloan took a deep breath before leaning to rest his cheek on the pillow, inching closer to his side. "I'm thinking of introducing you to my mom," Hendry confessed. "Um, we me

After the catastrophic dinner with Hendry's mom, Sloan did not expect to have another dinner anxiety so soon. But the message on his phone told him otherwise. Brody Curran: Hello Sloan, I'm getting back to you regarding the dinner. Callie and I are free tonight. I know it's kind of sudden, but I will be out of the city tomorrow and won't be for two weeks. Let me know if Hendry will be available. Sloan looked at the text, then looked at it again. And again. And again. Until Hendry spooked him by looming over him asking why he was staring at his phone so seriously. "I...um... it's Brody," Sloan gazed over his shoulder making sure that no one would overhear their conversation. It was still early in the morning, Hendry had just arrived while Sloan had been working for over an hour since he couldn't sleep and decided to go back to his mom at the crack of dawn. Sloan gave Hendry the excuse that he was going to check up on his mom before leaving for work. "Come to my office," Hendry t

"Okay we're ten minutes early," Sloan watched as Hendry looked at his Breitling watch only to be pleasantly surprised to see Brody was already seated on the table. "And looks like we're not the only one." He heard him say, Sloan could feel Hendry's hand on the small of his back as if he could feel the tension building inside him. Sloan relaxed a bit when he caressed him. "Come on, we're here, he saw us. Smile, Sloan...you're my boyfriend." Sloan heard him say as he leaned in closer, pressing his lips on Sloan's ear. He let Hendry talk when one of the restaurant staff ushered them to their table. Sloan followed behind him and watched as Hendry smiled at Brody who then got up from his seat and hugged him like nothing had happened between them. Sloan relaxed a bit seeing that Brody was instantly back in the friend zone with his boyfriend. Maybe it was the years they have as best friends, Sloan didn't give a care, what mattered the most was that they were back as friends. "How are you?

"Everything is going to be okay," Callie whispered rubbing Sloan's arm when she saw that he hesitated. Though deep down she knew that they were deep in a tangled mess. She remembered Sloan and she needed him to keep calm while she figures things out. She found him. She finally freaking found him! Sloan. After all this time she finally has a name for her mystery man. Her cousin would freak out if she knew. The sweet handsome man looked even more handsome with years between them. His jaw was more chiseled, his body looked stronger, and even his stance looked more confident. She was glad that after all those years he managed to free himself from his abusive ex. That night Callie felt for him. When they talked, it was all it took for him to pour out his frustration about his ex while Callie listened. "Callie, what's happening here?" Brody asked once both of them sat back in their chairs. Her eyes were still on Sloan who looked like he was one step away from bolting out of the restaurant.

Hendry was quiet on their way back, and Sloan was feeling more and more agitated as they get closer to his place. The small little glimpse he stole of his boyfriend was not making him relax. There was a noticeable tension in Hendry's face from the moment the four of them ended dinner. "We need to talk." "Oh...okay," The moment they arrived, Hendry led him into his penthouse before giving Sloan some privacy to call his mom, telling her he was not coming home that night. "So, you and Callie?" He asked once they were both seated on the sofa. "Yeah, well we meet at a party, and had sex, with our masks on. I know...it's weird. We were young, so um...then, we talked and went our separate way without exchanging phone numbers. That's it." Sloan explained while Hendry draped an arm around his shoulder, tugging him closer to his side. Possessively. "You left the part where you two got hung up on the said one-night-stand, years later. Both of you basically recognized one another when you bo

Callie didn't remember how the four of them tumbled into the mattress. But when her back touched Brody's bed, her eyes were locked onto Sloan's. She watched how his boyfriend was devouring his chest while his hands grabbed his perfect ass making him let out the sexiest mewling sound. They were all in the state of half undressed and in their lovers' arms. The needy moan that she lets out was catching Brody's attention when he finally switched his attention back to Callie. "Fucking hell, Brody, you didn't tell me you're into orgies. I still don't know how I feel about us doing this thing with your ex and my ex one-night stand." Callie said, breathlessly, in between her kissing and stripping his shirt off his shoulder. God...she loved how his muscles contracted when Brody caged her with his body. His narrow waist showed off his well-defined abs and it took all of her will, not to go back down again on him when he swatted her hands the second she was trying to unbuckle his belt. "I'm not

Fixation (Clusterf*ck Series #1) 80. Epilogue part two
Last night was one of the many nights Sloan knew he'd cherish for the rest of his life. Callie was beautiful, their lovemaking was profound and their husbands gave them orgasm after orgasm until his eyes closed as his body was lulled and he drifted off to sleep. Sloan would never in a million years imagine he'd have the perfect life. Being a house-husband was never his goal, but turns out raising their children with Callie was his purpose in life and it filled him with love and made him feel complete. "Are you sure we have everything?" Callie asked as she once again tried to convince Caden to wear his clothes. Hendry had Paisley ready and Brody carried baby Sean while his other arm was holding Evan ready to get to the car. They were all going to go to Brody's dad for his birthday lunch. Brody's sisters were already waiting at the house with their families. It had been three years since Brody's mom passed away from a stroke. With all the problems she caused, it was a miracle to have

Six years later "Sloan, honey, go... we'll stay with the kids. Just take Callie and Sean to the doctor. You've done this many times already, you know the drill." Livia scolded her son. Yes, Callie was panicking when baby Sean was running a high fever. Marlene, Callie's mom was visiting since she and her husband just got back from one of Callie's dad's business trips abroad. And just like most dotting grandparents, they were bringing gifts for their grandchildren. Their oldest grandson looked exactly like his daddy, Brody. At five years old, Evan was the perfect big brother for his twin siblings who liked following him around the house trying to annoy their big brother. The three-year-old girl Paisley has their mom's beautiful hair and eyes, while her twin brother, Caden, looks just like young Hendry with an attitude to match. The youngest baby was Sean, at one year old the little boy already had the same pout as Papa Sloan and a cry like he was given the best sets of lungs. "Papa
Fixation (Clusterf*ck Series #1) 78. The Honeymooners
"Damn, you sure know how to pick the destination. So, did you pack skimpy bikinis and speedos for Callie and Sloan too?" Brody asked grinning at Hendry. Their man was solely responsible for choosing their private villa with a gorgeous blue pool, and stunning volcano views looking over the Aegean waters. Brody was impressed, he'd never stayed at Santorini private villas before. The place was beautiful, secluded, and definitely romantic. "Of course I did, though I should've thought about buying the ones with matching colors for Sloan and Callie, they sure can pull one hell of a strip show for us." The man chuckled and Brody joined him taking a seat on one of the sunbeds at the Villa's terrace with the gorgeous view of the water. Sloan and Callie were checking out the villa and also unpacking. By unpacking it meant that they were checking out what Hendry and Brody had packed for their secret destination honeymoon. Though Brody was told what kind of clothes to pack, he didn't know thei
Fixation (Clusterf*ck Series #1) 77. Wedding Night
Hendry felt something was wrong when Sloan was gone longer than he should. He said that he was going to the toilet. At first, Hendry was worried that their new husband might be sick, then he worried that Sloan was getting tired so he came looking for their new husband. What he didn't expect was finding out that Holden had Sloan pinned and was seconds away from raping their new husband on their wedding day. He held Sloan in his arms, as soon as the guards Oakley arranged for them to hire had managed to take control of the situation. Hendry was just glad that Oakley had advised them to hire extra guards with the high-profile guests Callie's dad was inviting. Though deep down Hendry knew that Oakley had been in the business long enough to know that anything could happen. The man must've learned about Holden from the many times he spends time talking with Sloan and Callie. Oakley is a smart man and Hendry was glad that they had him to take care of them on the most important day of their
Fixation (Clusterf*ck Series #1) 76. Wedding Day
Sloan never thought that his day of being a groom to another man was going to come so soon. Dating hadn't been an easy experience for him. He'd never thought he'd get to the point that he was about to marry not one but three most important people in his life. Though he legally would be married to Hendry, their commitment ceremony will include vows as the four of them become one in front of their closest family and friends. When the day finally came Sloan felt ecstatic. He felt his smile go up to his ears and he felt like he was about to burst into a dance and make himself silly like singing in front of everyone or singing in an empty room, just because he couldn't wait to get in front of people to sing his heart out. "Sloan, darling, you need to stop fidgeting." His mom scolded him like he was still ten and she was rightening his clothes cause little Sloan wanted to look his best for his end-of-year school performance. "I can't believe the day is finally here, Mom." "I know, baby,
Fixation (Clusterf*ck Series #1) 75. The Scare
"Callie, honey," she turned to Sloan and realized that they had arrived and he was waiting by the back passenger door, holding it open for her. Sloan held out his hand and Callie took it. She heard Sloan tell their driver to go home before he ushered her into the house. Callie felt something was off the second she and Sloan entered their home. Brody had called them earlier and explained to them what happened. Sloan had Googled the accident and saw just how damaging the situation was. There were videos of cars crashing into a truck, the devastation was so harsh that it got her thinking about how Hendry's car could be involved in the accident. It made her realize just how fragile their lives were. She was glad that Brody insisted on them using a driver that day since she knew that Brody would be too nervous to share the news before they got home. Callie was still shaken and Sloan knew that she needed their men. The place was too quiet for her liking. The stillness made her hurry in
Fixation (Clusterf*ck Series #1) 74. Wake up call
Hendry was beyond relieved when Brody gave him a quick call and told him what happened before lunch. He listened while his future husband blurted about how his dad was divorcing his mom and was coming to the wedding tomorrow. The call didn't last long since Brody was going to have a lunch meeting with his family and talk more about their future without his vindictive mother. Hendry let Brody get back to his family so he could get back to his work. Hendry had a few contract proposals to approve and some internal documents to sign until it was time for him to meet up with his dad and Harvey. His mom might not be as strongly opinionated as Brody's mom, but she was keeping it to herself and that was making everything worse for herself. Hendry's dad had been coming less and less to the office because he was taking care of his mom. Harvey checked up on them, though he reported back with nothing good. "You know it's not your fault, right?" Harvey asked as he walked into Hendry's office. H
Fixation (Clusterf*ck Series #1) 73. The Support
"Hendry, you don't have to come with me. My sisters will be there, I'm pretty sure the worst has passed." Brody explained as he got dressed. Callie and Sloan already left the house to pick up Livia and Marlene for their spa day with the moms. Brody felt the envy shimmering under his skin, he wanted his parents to be excited about his future too. But no... his mom had to ruin his happiness by trying to end her life as if his action had shamed her to her death. Lately, Brody had to exhaust himself at work just to get a good night's sleep. Though good would be pushing it. The sleep had been decent at best. Brody was still stressed over his mom, though he tried to concentrate on his relationship. He couldn't help feeling that he was making things difficult for his lovers though they kept on supporting him. He knew he'd be as persistent as them if it was the other way around. "I'm going to drop you off then, I have some work stuff to deal with. I might as well get more things done so no
Fixation (Clusterf*ck Series #1) 72. Cheer up
It was one week after Brody's mom's incident. Sloan had felt how it affected them, the tension was there, making things slightly off-balance but he kept his head high and believed that everything would be good in time. Since they still thread carefully around Brody, Sloan decides to do the next best thing he can. He had arranged a nice lunch with Brody's sisters after inviting them for their bridesmaid dresses to fit out. Callie praised Sloan's plan as he threw in a spa day with Molly and Sadie afterward. "Well, I thought if we can make the sisters happy then Brody will have fewer problems to handle. I miss our Brody. I don't like this side of him." Sloan confessed as he nibbled his toast. Hendry had gone to work along with Brody, he had been dropping off and picking up Brody these past few days though their offices were on the opposite side of town. Both Sloan and Callie were glad that Hendry had decided to look after their man, making sure that he was not alone even if it was onl
