miss standing there like that, isn't he?"
"He sure is." Braden pulled out the beverages he was seeking.
Carl chuckled. "Braden tells me you've got a fine package, Ely."
Braden nodded. "He sure has, Carl. I've seen him in the showers." He turned his attention to Ely, a lustful grin on his lips. "Man, having that meat of yours up my arse would be just fucking perfect. Say, Carl and me are going to go hard at it again real soon. You want to join us this time? A threesome would be so damn hot."
In that instant, Ely's heart skipped a beat.
When Braden had handed his lover his bottle, he come to embrace Carl, draw him close. They kissed. One of all roving tongues and groans. Ely licked his lips. Why was it, after he had found such a wonderful man in Emerson, that every guy he had ever lusted for was behaving just how he had dreamed? All those nights of jacking off, thinking of all the things he'd do to Kale and Braden, and sometimes both at the same time. He didn't even think Braden knew he existed up until this moment. How wrong was he on that? How wrong was he on many things?
Just as Ely was about to answer, turn down the enticing offer, his thoughts of Emerson still vivid in his mind, the siren above the cabin's front door flashed orange and sounded three times. An announcement soon followed, and the comm panel on the wall near the kitchenette scrolled with the words that were spoken. The reason for the verbal and visual communication was not because there were any deaf people on board, but because many on rest days listened to music or were hooked up to vGames, while those on duty could be immersed within navigation computers or holographic simulations.
"Attention all personnel. General alert has been issued. I repeat, general alert has been issued. All non-rostered military staff are to remain in their quarters or proceed in an orderly fashion so that they are. All civilians, under military protocol 67-ba9, are also required to do the same. This is not a drill. I repeat, this is not a drill. Attention all personnel…" And the message continued until repeated three times.
"I wonder what's going on?" Ely questioned, heading for the comm panel.
Braden shrugged his shoulders. "Well, whatever it is, we're in no hurry now. We're all stuck here until the general alert has been lifted." He kissed his lover, again with lots of tongue. "Let's go then, Carl. I need another good hard fucking. Ely, you joining in, or not?"
Ely was more interested in the readout at the end of the message. There was a flashing icon, one that was a direct link to the engineering bay and Commander Okinawa's ready room. That meant one thing. Commander Okinawa wanted to speak to either him or Braden, and seeing as Braden was a command cadet, having nothing to do with engineering, Ely bet his left nut that he was the subject of the hail. He wondered what the commander wanted him for.
"So, Ely, you coming, then?" Carl said, waving at Ely before pulling Braden into his room.
Ely was busy contemplating the meaning of the hail. He replied, "You two go ahead and start. I think Commander Okinawa wants me."
"Well, you know where we are." And with that Braden closed his cabin door. The sound of the cot creaking and heavy groans soon filled the air. Braden and Carl didn't waste any time, did they?
Ely pressed the hail icon.
The comm panel went blank, the general alert message disappearing, before the face of Commander Okinawa filled its frame. "Ah, cadet Ely, I'm glad you answered so quickly."
Ely saluted. "Yes, sir."
"Now, I'm sure you're wondering what this is all about?"
"It had crossed my mind, sir."
"I'm sure it did. A man of your ability wouldn't settle for just acceptance. Now, the Mandrake has been surrounded by an energy field. According to our sensors we're also gaining speed exponentially."
Ely was taken aback. A common occurrence of late. "Gaining speed? It hasn't got anything to do with any of my simulations you implemented for the coolant
"He sure is." Braden pulled out the beverages he was seeking.
Carl chuckled. "Braden tells me you've got a fine package, Ely."
Braden nodded. "He sure has, Carl. I've seen him in the showers." He turned his attention to Ely, a lustful grin on his lips. "Man, having that meat of yours up my arse would be just fucking perfect.
