fucking vacation to sort all this out, James.”
    The door slammed open and hit the wall, bouncing back. Derek entered the room and put his hands on James’ desk, leaning over it.
“ Where the fuck were you?” Derek almost shouted. James sat back in his chair and crossed his arms. “You’ll have to be more specific.”
     
“ Don’t fucking play with me James, you weren’t at the meeting! Are you fucking avoiding me now?”
     
“ Now why would I do that, General?” James sat forward putting his hands on the desk.
    “ Because you want more from me and I’m not there yet.” Derek sighed in frustration and ran his hands over his face. “I get it okay? I’m a bastard. I look forward to these meetings. I have to go back to Afghanistan at the end of the month and I wanted to see you before I left.”
“ Well, you’re here now.” James smiled.
    “ Was that your plan? To not be at the meeting so I’d come find you? Well it worked, didn’t it?” Derek threw his hands up in the air. “What do you want, James? You want to go out for drinks, talk maybe?”
“ Um,” James pointed behind Derek. “I have plans already.”
    Derek turned to see the amused look on Josh’s face. “Oh shit.” He whispered. Then it clicked. Plans? The jealous rage rose instantly and Derek felt his lips curl. “Plans?”
Josh saw the change in Derek’s face. “Whoa,” Josh put his hands up in defense. “Nothing like that, General.”
    James sighed and stood up. “I’ll give you the time off Josh, take all you need. I need you whole when you come back.” James grabbed his jacket. “I’m going to the damn bar to get a drink.”
“ Can I come with you?” Derek turned around to look at James.
    “ Sure,” James stopped at the door. “For whatever reason, Josh, you’ve been given a chance at something. Remember the words of the fortune teller. I’ll see you when you get back.”

    Four hours later, Josh was boarding the flight to Alaska from Sea-Tac. He found his seat in first class and sat down, mentally exhausted. Closing his eyes, he saw

Mark’s face, it was always there. As soon as they were in
    the air, Josh unbuckled his seat belt and went to the restroom. He hadn’t even gotten the door shut, when he was forced into the bathroom and the door was shut and locked. His face registered shock when he saw the flight attendant smiling at him.
“ Sabine?”
     
“ Joshua…” Sabine smiled wickedly. “I have missed

you, how long has it been cheri? ”
    “ Um, a few months?” Josh swallowed hard. Sabine’s hands slid down his torso to cup his cock. “Look, I don’t —”
    “ Shhh,” Sabine smiled, rubbing the front of his slacks. “I have missed your lips.” Sabine pulled Josh down to her lips and kissed him hard. After a few seconds, she realized he wasn’t kissing her back. Not only that, his dick was soft. “Joshua? You do not find me attractive anymore?”
    Josh sighed, rubbing his face with his hands and sat down on the toilet. “It’s not that, I have feelings for someone else.” Josh blinked in surprise. He’d just

admitted it out loud. Shit.
    Sabine smiled wide. “My Joshua has finally found ‘the one’? Oh, I am so happy for you!” Sabine hugged him hard.
    “ Really?” Josh looked at her. Sabine was beautiful. She had black hair pulled up in a French twist, with smokey grey eyes. She had a face like a porcelain doll. His mother would love her.
    “ But of course! We have fun, nothing more, and I have always known that.” Sabine palmed his face. “Something is troubling you, no?”
“ It’s complicated,” Josh sighed. “But my heart is taken now.”
     
“ Well then,” Sabine stood him up and fixed his shirt. “It will all work out.”
     
“ God, I hope so.” Josh smiled.
     
~~ “ Mark?”
     
Mark blinked and looked up. “Yes?”
     
“ You zoned out again.”
    “ Oh,” Mark blushed. “Sorry, I was thinking about something else.” Mark sat back and took a good long
