Chapter 4

There was a queue a mile long at the check in place, Ste was worried he was going miss his flight. A woman was arguing about lost luggage and the assistant was clearly struggling with her. He waited there as long as he could before deciding if it was important they'd let him know. Ste hurried through the airport into the waiting lounge, a assistant was stood there waiting.

Ste gave her the ticket to inspect, and she waved him through just in time. He found his seat, business class, very posh. Slumped himself down into the seat and took a big sigh. Seriously, what a assignment this was turning out to be.

Ste wondered what ex spies could actually do once they're disposed of, which clearly will happen at this rate. Ste thought with a heavy heart, to put this, thing, he had with Brendan to the back burner, no matter how strong his feelings were, this was his job.

Danny Houston, Ste read the file, Danny was supplying Brendan with drugs, according to an insider. and along with Brendan had been making numerous trips abroad. Every time the police had tried to apprehend them, some how they were clean when searched.

There were pictures of Brendan and Danny together, taken at various airports on security cameras. Ste noticed woman accompanied them during these visits, different women, but why? To help bring in the drugs maybe? Ste was thinking out loud at this point, and he noticed an older gentleman looking over at him puzzled. "You want a photo?" The man looked away quickly, as Ste sighed.

He signalled to a flight attendant.

"Hi, Could I get a glass of water please?" The man looked at him and replied

"We have some champagne, would sir be interested in a glass?" "Oh Champers? Erm, yeah go on then, seen as the company is paying...they are paying, right?" The attendant turned up his nose and spoke "Yes sir, all paid for." And poured him a glass.

Ste was happily drinking the champagne, he was giddy now as he'd had a few glasses of bubbly. He suddenly laughed out loud, then put his hand over his mouth. Oops , he thought to himself, no more, he decided.

Trying to clear his head once more, he looked at the file again. Studying the CCTV photos of Brendan, and his women his thoughts were clouding over Ste started to feel uneasy, this was daft, but photos never lie do they?

Brendan couldn't be interested in these ladies, I mean the other night he had been flirting with him, and again in the cafe, Ste can't have misread the signals...Fuck, Fuck! Well, that lasted all of, what, 10minutes?! Ste sighed to himself. Sat back and closed his eyes.

Brendan finished his coffee and was trying to take in the past two days, overnight he had felt a huge impact on his life, all because of a stranger who walked into his club. Then a thought speared at his heart, the call he'd received, someone was coming, a new face.

That pain hit the pit of his stomach, could the warning have been about Steven? Can't be, Brendan usually has a good idea about people, able to read there was pure, heart on his sleeve. No one could play act that well, he felt the same, felt the rush of adrenalin whenever they were around each other.

Brendan made his way through to the waiting lounge and gave the attendant his ticket. He walked on the plane and the flight attendants all rushed to help him to his seat. Once there, and a cat fight over him was narrowly avoided, he sat down.

A flustered attendant asked him if he wanted a drink, so he asked for a Jamesons, and settled back into his seat. He looked at the choice of in flight movies, could be a good way to keep his mind off things for a while.

He drank his whiskey and relaxed, the movie was an action one, perfect he decided to check his phone, one text off Cheryl Hey Bro, hope the flight ok, and bring me some duty free! ;D Chez x Brendan rolled his eyes, he had forgotten to pick up a gift for her, mind got distracted. He made a mental note to look around the Liverpool airport shops instead.

Looking through his phone he saw 3 missed calls, all Caller withheld.

Ste opened his eyes and felt the strong urge to go to the bathroom, he stood up and was still slightly tipsy as he made his way up the aisle of the plane. He was wobbly on his feet, and cursed himself for drinking too many glasses of Champagne. He tripped into a seat and on top of a older woman, who looked like thunder.

"Oh sorrehh! I tripped, and I need the bathroom you see..." Ste let out his usual laugh and practically ran into the toilet and locked the door.

What Ste had failed to notice though, was that further along the plane on the other aisle was where Brendan was sat, mouth open and watching him as he ran past.

Brendan was getting bored of the movie and thought he'd stretch his legs, would be landing soon, and he couldn't wait to see Cheryl. And Nate too, he had been the best thing to happen to her, and he loved to see her so happy now.

As he was about to get up he heard a laugh, the laugh. Seriously, there was no way they had got on the same... Oh ye are kidding me! He thought. Brendan watched as Ste stumbled running up the aisle towards an area to the back of him.

His moustache twitched as he smiled to himself, he was going to enjoy this.

BANG, BANG... "Won't be a minute!" Ste shouted as he was running warm water over his hands and washing his face to try rub out the remnants of alcohol out of his mind.

BANG, BANG... "Yeah, er, OCCUPIED, give us a moment!" Ste thought this person was obviously desperate for the toilet, but wasn't finished waking himself up so tried cold water over his face now, and that seemed to help. Tried to find a towel, which he smothered over his face.

BANG, BANG, BANG, BANG... "Oh my god! OKAY ALREADY!, keep ya hair on, bloody el, can't even go to the bathr..." Ste opened the door and got the shock of his life, there stood, arm up over his head leaning to one side, fingers running over his moustache was Brendan.

Brendan smiled mischievously and in a low sultry voice said "Steven".

Brendan took his hand from his face and ran his fingers over Ste's jaw line, down to his shoulder and moved to his chest. He felt Ste's heart beating fast, chest heaving with every deep breath. Brendan paused on his chest and with one swift movement, pushed Ste back into the bathroom, and locked the door behind them.

They stared into each others eyes, taking each other in. Ste was speechless, which was a first for him, his thoughts were very vocal though. What was Brendan doing here? How could they have boarded the same flight? And why were they squeezed into the smallest bathroom in the world?

"What's going on in there Steven?" Brendan asked as he put his two fingers onto Ste's was searching his eyes for answers but couldn't read them.

"I saw ye come in here, and thought I'd knock" Brendan moved closer to Ste's face as he kept his mouth open, gesturing to him.

"You know, the flight will be landing soon, we not got long, don't you have anything to say?" Brendan tried.

Ste was worried his heart would pound right out of his chest, Brendan was moving closer to him, and he felt the warmth of him circle his body, it felt good, and those lips, they looked good too, he bit his bottom lip nervously. Holding a breath Ste replied " Just kiss me, for god sake kiss me Brendan" Begged Ste

Brendan moved to quickly press their lips together, opened his mouth and grabbed hold of Ste's lips with him sucking them close passionately. Their lips moved in rhythm with one another, grabbing hold of each kissing movement. Their tongues met and wrapped around each others, wet and hot, the electric current crashing through both of them at the touch, made them groan and hitch quick breaths.

Ste had melted again, he was melting, in this man's arms, now that Brendan had moved them around his waist and pulled them closer. There groins were pressing together now, each feeling the others' erection through the material. Ste moved his hand down and felt as Brendan pulsed through his suit trousers, he pressed tight against him and rubbed up and down him.

Brendan groaned into his mouth and swallowed into Ste's mouth was coming apart inside, Ste's hand on him, and that movement was driving him crazy, he took his hand a put it onto Ste's crotch and felt his arousal was just as rubbed hard friction over Ste's cock and trying to keep in time with one another both of them aching at each others arousal.

This was erotic, and desperate, they kissed so deeply it was hard to tell who began and who ended. They came together, groaning into each others mouth, swallowing each others pleasure.

Ste left the bathroom first, bright red face, looking like he'd been pulled through a hedge backwards to be honest. Hair matted thanks to brendan's wandering hands,as he tried to push it back into a smoother style, the flight attendant looked curiously at him.

"Sir,are you alright? Had an accident in there have you?" He could hear Brendan laughing behind the door as he closed it shut and then coughed loudly as if to tell Brendan to pack it in.

"Air sick, just took it all out of me, best leave it a while before anyone goes in there" The attendant nodded with a smirk.

Ste walks back to his seat wishing the floor would open and swallow him up right now.

Brendan creaked the bathroom door open, crept out and was still looking perfect. Not a hair out of place, smiling he put his comb in his back pocket, smoothed over his moustache, adjusted his collar and went to find his seat.

The plane was landing.

They hadn't seen each other after the plane had arrived, Brendan went straight to the shops to quickly buy Cheryl a gift, perfume, Brendan thought. He collected his luggage and caught a taxi to Chester. His phone rang, he looked at the phone and twitched.

"Daniel, to what do I owe this pleasure?" "Brendan, I hear you are in town, something I need to worry about? Danny replied.

Brendan hung his head to one side, "And, just where did you hear that Daniel? I didn't realize my travel arrangements concerned you?"Asked Brendan

"I make it my business to know these things Brady, nothing gets past me, now you have a nice trip wont you" The phone went dead.

Brendan smashed the phone against the door a number of times in anger. Then caught the eye of the taxi driver as he was looking at him through the mirror.

"Keep yer eyes on the road..."Brendan spoke through gritted teeth before laying back into the seat and closing his eyes.

Ste arrived at his hotel, and made a phone call.

"Is this Danny? Danny Houston?" Ste spoke.

" Who wants to know?" "I met a guy who he said you could help me out, I have a large drugs shipment coming my way and I need to find a buyer" The man on the phone went quiet, pausing to think.

Ste continued "I need someone who can handle the load, Look, If you ain't interested then I'll find..."

"No,I am interested. Lets arrange a meeting,I know a place in Chester, You heard of Chez,Chez?" Danny asked.

Ste knew the place,Brendan's place. He sighed, closed his eyes and agreed to a meeting there. Game on
