Hall Pass -- 23 -- Last night in Scotland -- Part 2

She illustrated her wisdom to me, as she does occasionally. She said, "I don't think we have a problem. Both of us are happy to end this five-day visit early. We will always come back together. Nothing is as good as, what is happening right now. Our need for each other will not diminish. I always feel so alone when I can't reach out and touch you. We are becoming more capable of allowing each other to have too much fun. I hope that is a good thing but I will be glad for us to visit with Kay if you think we should."
I thought. "This woman has her, little-girl-dumb-blonde, act down to an art but she is so intelligent. She thinks deeply."
We called Cook on the devil's machine. She sent food and drink. We lay there together until one thirty. We talked and touched one another and just enjoyed being together. It was such a nice way to spend the day.

We walked into the Great Room on the chime of two. Bobby and Michelin were a few minutes late. Bobby explained that they had difficulty getting out of bed. They had spent the day the same way we had. I understood and let them off the hook.
We physically greeted them. Linda kissed Bobby more passionately than I thought she would. I gathered Michelin close and kissed her the same way. I made our kiss last longer than theirs.
Michelin's breath was taken away. I knew that I wanted this woman again. I whispered to her, "I will have you again."
She whispered in my ear, "I owe you one. I do pay my debts."
I think Linda and Bobby made similar promises to each other. I hoped that they had.
We chatted. After a time, Bobby said, "Let's go see Chauffer. I want to hear his plan for your car."
Michelin took Linda's hand and said, "Come with me to the kitchen. Cook has made a special treat for us."
Bobby gave his consent for her to leave and she led Linda away.
Five minutes later, Bobby and I walked up to the open garage door. Uncle Artair had seen us coming. He met us there.
He bowed slightly and said, "Laird, Luke, how may I help you?"
Bobby answered, "This is just a social visit. I would have you tell us about your plans to build Luke's car."
A genuine and gracious smile came to the old man's face. He asked, "Would a wee dram be in order, while we talk?"
Bobby replied in the affirmative and a minute later, found us seated in Artair's office. He poured half a tumbler of his whisky for each of us, as was his custom. We all took a sip.
Bobby looked at him and said, "My God man, this is swill."
The old man tilted his head and his eyes narrowed a bit. He said, "A poor man's whisky, freely given, is not good enough for The Laird. Is that it?"
At that moment, I came to understand. The old man would not tolerate an insult from anyone. I made myself a mental note to remember that. I was going to have to deal with this crusty old bastard for most of the next year.
Bobby stuttered some but then regained his composure. He replied, "Not at all, Sir. I am happy to drink it and honored that you share it with me."
The old man just stared at him.
A second later, Bobby continued, "I only meant that after we become family, your cabinet will hold better stock."
The old man lets him off the hook. Trying to draw me into the conversation, he looked at me and spoke. He said, "I heard about the upcoming wedding, this morning. Can you tell me how that came about?"
I was trying to think of an answer when Bobby broke in. He said, "I will answer that Luke." He shifted his gaze to Artair and said simply. "Luke threatened to kick my arse if I didn't marry the lass."
The old man was taken aback, visibly. He sat back in his chair and gulped half his drink. He looked at me but didn't speak.
Speaking about me, Bobby continued. He said, "The man had the further audacity to include you in his threat. He told me that if he couldn't handle the arse kicking, he would enlist your help. Would you have risen to that call?"
It was the old man's turn to stutter.
Bobby let him escape. He said, "You don't have to answer. I'm sure you would have but it doesn't matter. I fully intend to wed with Michelin. I love her very much."
The old man finished his drink in another gulp. He sat with nothing to say.
A moment passed and I said, "If that has been settled, I would like to talk about the car."
Bobby was quiet. His eyes twinkled and I saw him chuckling under his breath.
The old man recovered some and said, "The plan is I will build the car. Each morning I will decide what I must do that day and I will do it. I took your check to the bank. Banker made a telecall and told me that there were sufficient funds in your account. They will be transferred at the current exchange rate of 1.88 to 1. Banker also said that the money would be available to me by Monday."
He continued, "The first priority is to acquire a suitable frame and body to work with. Everything else will be new anyway. I have every rally driver and mechanic in, The United Kingdom, searching for such a car. There is a nice TR3A within two hundred miles of here. It is available but it's not left-hand drive. If there is no other choice, I could use it. It would mean extra work but I could turn it into a left-hand car."
We continued to talk for another half hour. It took The Laird that long to finish his drink. Like a good soldier, he forced it down. We left the office and the three of us walked toward the garage door. The little green triumph was sitting there in its splendor. My dick got hard.
The old man said, "Laird after we become family and after you deliver that expensive whisky you spoke of, I will have you address me as, Uncle Artair. I have adopted Luke. He already has that privilege."
Bobby laughed. He said, "That will never happen. I shall address you as, Artair and you will address me as Bobby when we are in private. We will both remain formal in public.
The old man chuckled and held out his hand for Bobby to shake. As they shook hands he said, "Welcome to the family,"
Bobby replied, "Thank you. "Does this mean we have your blessing?"
Artair answered, "Absolutely, but know this. I would have answered Luke's call."
They laughed together and actually hugged. I didn't know a Scotsman could hug another man.
I admonished the old man to call about the smallest problem concerning the car and told him goodbye.
We started to walk away. Bobby stopped and turned back toward Uncle Artair. He said," Please have the Bentley in front of the main house at nine, thirty in the morning. Have her prepared for a trip to Edinburgh."
The old man bowed his head slightly and replied, "Sir!"
The girls were sitting and chattering in the Great Room when we arrived.
Michelin stood and came to me. She held my hand for a second and kissed my cheek. She went to Bobby and said, "I hope you are both pleased. Cook has prepared a special repast for our last dinner together. She says it can be served anywhere in the house on twenty minutes notice, after five."
Bobby and I were pleased. I noticed that I was hungry. I thought, "Maybe we can eat early and I can take my Linda to bed."
Bobby said, "If Cook has gone to great trouble, she will expect me to offer the formal dining room."
I asked, "Do we have to dress?"
Bobby answered, "We always dress when we use that room."
I said, "Let's eat in the kitchen, so Cook can watch as we appreciate her work."
Bobby laughed and said, "Good man, I hate to dress for dinner."
Bobby offered drinks. I declined, saying that Artair's stout whisky already had me tipsy. We all went without further libations.
I noticed suddenly that slow classical music was floating in the air. Michelin came to me and asked me to dance. I took her out on the floor. It felt good to hold her. I spoke softly and said, "I want to throw you down on that bearskin and fuck your lights out."
She said, "Oh no, Luke. That would be improper. I think Bobby would become upset."
I asked, "Would you be upset."
Her magical giggle floated in the air with the music. She answered, "I would love for you to throw me down on the bearskin and fuck my fucking lights out."
I chuckled and said, "You are using extra dirty words again. You know what that does to me." I steered her toward the bearskin.
She laughed and said, "I will stop. Give me a rain check. I really would like to be able to look forward to the time it will happen."
I said, "You have it, Sweet Girl." I paused and added, "Linda told me that you have given her a couple bottles of orange blossoms and told her that I really liked the scent."
Michelin giggled again. She asked, "Did you tell her why I gave them to her?"
I answered, "No. I love Linda very much but I don't tell her everything. When I have that scent in my nostrils, I will think of you." I felt like we were conspirators. I forgave myself immediately.
The music stopped and we returned to Bobby and Linda. They were sitting together on the loveseat and holding hands. They weren't being naughty.
The music began again. Michelin went to Linda and pulled her up and out onto the floor. They began to dance. I sat in the big chair across from Bobby.
Bobby's eyes locked on the girls. He asked, "Luke, are you sure we shouldn't have a drink?"
I answered, "I am sure that if we do, this situation will get out of control."
