“Hey guys, a little help in the kitchen!”

Cam followed us, and the other three met us in the kitchen. The doors to the balcony split the kitchen in half. Alex, Colton and I busied ourselves by unpacking the bags on the island in the middle. Cam and O grabbed the stuff from there. I knew Cam was a neat freak, so I let him put things away in the cupboards. I put O on fridge duty. I put the items that were specifically for Cam, like the humidifier and cough medicine, on the table.

In about five minutes, mostly everything was put away. Colton was already eating a banana. I shook my head, trying to get the image of his hand on Cam’s dick out of head.

Did they jack each other off, or just themselves?

I knew jealousy wasn’t a good look for me, but I couldn’t help it.

“Hey Ford, thanks for getting all this stuff for us,” I said.

“No problem, Luke. I’m sorry you guys had to change your sleeping arrangements.”

He seemed to realize who he was talking to and got embarrassed. “Uh, I meant that...the fire...not you and Cam.”

“I knew what you meant. What room number are you guys in? Do you know Shane and Noah’s room too?”

“Sure thing, Luke.”

Noah left to go check on Cam, giving me and Shane some privacy and time to go over my situation.

“What’s your biggest priority?” Shane asked. “Right now.”

“Well, they just shut my phone off, so…that?”

“Okay, well, that’s easy. I’ll talk to Noah, but we have a family plan. It was cheaper than staying separate. We could probably just add you to that.”

“You’d do that?”

“It’s not that much work, Luke. I think I just have to let them know about the switch and then we can send them your info. The hotel, the village, and the O2 are wifi equipped, so you can use that for now.”

“Okay, that sounds easy. Next would be money. I’m sure my credit card doesn’t work anymore.”

“To be frank, how much do you have?”

“Maybe twenty thousand?”

“Okay, wow. That’s not bad. Plus, you’ll get twenty-five thousand from the US Olympic Committee for your gold medal, and there’s the team silver too. And you have a chance at more medals. That’ll work for a bit.”

“I forgot about that.”

“Do you need me to look at your deal with Andrew Christian?”

“Yeah, I can send you the contact info for the guy there. It would be great if you could explain the situation to him.”

“I’ll also talk to Woodward. I’m positive he’ll have some good ideas, and he knows a lot of people. He’s more in the gymnastics world than I’ve been.”

I couldn’t help but feel guilty about that. Other than dating Noah, I didn’t know what he’d been up to since Brisbane. He must’ve seen my expression.

“I already told you, Luke, it wasn’t your fault. I’ve been fine. It was nice to escape the tumultuous life of coaching an Olympic hopeful.” He smiled at me, looking to see if I appreciated his sarcasm.

“Especially one with special parents?”

“Speaking of, I spent some time with mine, got pretty serious with Noah - we live together now - helped him with Cam a little and got a job as a gym teacher.”

“A teacher, huh? Bigs or littles?”

“High school, so, bigs.” He went with my informality. “They don’t have a gymnastics program, but I coach the wrestling team. Erika’s little brother, Austin, was actually on it until he graduated.”
