Chapter 827 – Spending Time With Jasper and Greg and Lat Is Lat
Latimer didn’t exactly know what to think of me characterizing him as ‘BIG’ but he seemed rather proud of the fact I noticed his large prowess. Greg, Lat and I had a good laugh over it, although there was no denying it. I had a feeling Greg was interested in seeing it, and I was damned sure Lat would have been happy to show him his large cock and low-hangers, but I didn’t want us to lose control over what we were here to do.
We chowed down on our hamburgers and drank our sodas then quickly got back to work. Obviously, we spent the rest of the afternoon on the asset list. I asked Lat how we were going to get the high, medium and low pricing on each item. “I’ve got my sources, but I have to be accurate in what I describe or I might be getting pricing for entirely different items and that could cause over valuating or under valuating which we don’t want to happen. We want to be as accurate as we can. I’ve got the depreciated values which will help me see if we’re in the ball park, but I’ll need you two to review it, especially Greg, who might want to check with this Morty guy also, to see if what we come up with is reasonable. I’ll work on the values tonight as I don’t want to waste your time while I work on that spreadsheet as it’s just a lot of research. I might not get it all done tonight but I’ll get a lot of it. While you’re fucking, I’ll be working so keep that in mind,” he told us, making us shake our heads.
We kept at it, making progress. Lat asked Greg if he could call the county court house and obtain the personal property tax assessments on each of the asset items. He said they wouldn’t release it to him, but if Greg was an officer of Key West Aviation, they would to him. Lat gave Greg the number to call and Greg did as requested. The lady at the court house told him he would have to make a request in writing and it could take up to three weeks for them to send out the report. Greg told Lat what he found out which irritated Lat to no end.
“No fucking way. We need those numbers now. What kind of third world country type courthouse are they running down there? Give me a minute,” he told us, then brought up different ‘Word’ documents he had stored on his laptop and quickly typed something out. He sent it to the printer, then went and grabbed it. “Here, Greg, sign this for me,” he told Greg. Greg looked it over quickly. It was an authorization for Lat to collect the information from the court house on behalf of Key West Aviation, (KWA) naming Greer as the attorney for KWA and Lat the representative to obtain the information requested. Greg signed it for him. “Three fucking weeks, my ass. I’ll have this shit tomorrow,” he stated, then set the sheet aside. Greg and I looked at one another. We knew he had big balls and a big cock but how did that help him here? That was the question, but we didn’t pursue it as he seemed pissed having to deal with it. Lat was strange enough to deal with in a good mood, but in a pissy mood, I didn’t want to go there and neither did Greg. Greg quickly signed the authorization as Lat continued to work. This went on for some time.
Around 4:00, I think we were all worn out. “You planning on quitting anytime today?” I asked Lat. He gave me a funny look.
“What’s your time frame for completing this valuation project?” he looked up from his laptop and asked. I told him I’d like to complete our part in the next two days if that were possible as I needed to get back to Uni. I told him I was falling behind in what I needed to do there, explaining about the dormitory we were opening before school started, plus I had to meet with my business counselor to choose my classes for next semester. “You’re still in college?” he asked somewhat shocked. I told him I was going to be a junior this year. He looked at me like I was crazy. “Damn, Josh, you’re running a multi-million dollar company and you haven’t even graduated from college yet? What the fuck, dude?” he said, shaking his head. “I guess miracles can happen. Well alright then, I’ll hustle my ass to get as much of this done as I can, but I can’t guarantee I’ll have this completed in two days. You guys are going to have to hustle your asses to help me,” he replied. We told him we were at his mercy. For some reason that made him smile. I reminded him that was business and nothing else, causing him to frown. “You could have thrown in an incentive in there somewhere other than business like us all being naked and you guys molesting me,” he replied. I told him to keep his mind out of the gutter. “Well hell, that’s no fun. You guys are going to go off and fuck tonight, maybe even have a three-some with Jasper while I work my ass off on this spreadsheet. Kind of sucks on my part, only it isn’t my dick that gets sucked,” he complained. I shook my head.
“I don’t know what to tell you. We’d be happy to help if it was something we knew how to do, but you seem to be the one that wants to do it. As long as we can give you everything you need while I’m here, you don’t have to kill yourself to get it done before I leave. I just don’t want to leave and you still need something from me. Greg will be here if you need additional information, but I’d like to leave say Thursday afternoon if possible,” I replied. Lat looked at Greg and smiled.
“I could work with Greg. I’d actually love to work with Greg, but he’s not you, and it’s you I need to please the most, so we’ll try our best to get this in good shape by Thursday noon, if that’s you deadline goal,” Lat replied.
“Like I said, don’t kill yourself with this. If it takes a little longer then it takes a little longer as long as you don’t need me physically here for what you need,” I explained.
“The main purpose of me working with the two of you is to make sure this is an equitable deal between the two parties. If the two of you jointly work on this together and agree on what we’re coming up with, that’s the main hurdle we have to cross. Again, like I said, value is what’s agreed upon and accepted by both parties, so it works better if the two of you arrive, with my help of course, on the value together. Do you understand what I’m saying?” he asked.
“I understand and I think Greg does too. We, or I, more than we, have time constraints, but I’ll do what we have to do. It’s not like being here is some torturous assignment. We couldn’t have a more beautiful place to work than here,” I replied.
“Well, we could all work naked at the PF and maybe that might be a more relaxed venue than this conference room,” Lat suggested. Again I shook my head.
“This conference room works fine, Lat. We all need to concentrate on what we’re doing and not be distracted otherwise,” I suggested to his devilish smile. With that we got back to work. Lat would give us scenarios and then have us decide on what we thought was reasonable in value. We both agreed with each other on most of what Lat asked us. I got a text from Jasper saying he had arrived at the PF and was there whenever we got done with whatever we were doing. It was 5:00 and I told Lat I felt like we needed to stop for the day. He said he’d had enough fun for one day also. I told him Jasper, Greg and I were going to have dinner and some beers at the CNB tonight and invited him to join us if he wanted to, if he could be civil. He shook his head at me.
“While the thought of being with this little love triangle of yours intrigues me, I have way too much work to do to take time off to drink, eat, dance and possibly screw, but I’ll take a raincheck on that sometime,” he replied, somewhat excited. I told him I thought he was reading too much into the invitation I extended, but whatever. “Tell your other love interest, Jasper, I’ll have his keys ready for his apartment tomorrow afternoon if he wants to drop by here. Maybe we’ll have time to look the place over before he signs the lease, which I happen to have here in the office,” Lat told us.
“I just want to thank you for all the hard work you did to make this happen for Jasper. I know he appreciates it and I appreciate the extreme effort you made to make it happen, Lat. I have to say you are, little by little, starting to impress me. Plus, I think you did a great job organizing this project we’re on here. Greer said you wouldn’t let me down and I think he was right,” I told Lat.
“Of course he was right. He knows my capabilities even if some of you guys don’t think I have what it takes to do this job. I appreciate the fact you complimented me on my work and extra effort, Josh. Isn’t that your mantra, doing what we can do to help others and support one another?” he asked. I smiled and told him it definitely was, and I appreciated he felt that way, even though technically, he wasn’t a part of Stoney Enterprises, but worked for Greer who was part of us. “All the same to me, but I know I have to prove myself to you, and I’m trying,” he replied. I smiled.
“Don’t try too hard as you freak me out at times,” I chided. He chuckled, telling me I hadn’t seen anything yet. “Okay, now that scares me,” I replied with a smile, of course.
“Go see love interest #2 before he jumps in bed with some random big-dicked stranger at the PF since you’re not there to take care of him,” Lat chided. I told him he was impossible. “Yeh, but fun,” he replied. I did give him a guarded hug as we left. “What, you worried I’m going to molest you or something?” he asked regarding the guarded hug. I told him I wasn’t so sure. “Just go,” he said. He did give Greg a hug also, Greg saying he was impressed with the work we had done together today and looked forward to seeing him in the morning. That seemed to make Lat happy.
