Plot Bunny
I'm reading a good book, but it's pretty long, so I'm not sure I will finish it tonight and so I decided to share with you my last night lullaby story (Actually last night I had some problem to sleep, and my mind wandered a bit).
This is in true a plot I'm cultivated from a bit, since the time I was reading only M/F historical romance. But I don't think it would fit in a M/M contest in an historical setting and so I'm converting it in a contemporary setting. But still, one of the male figure in the story shoud be pretty feminine, since in origin he was a woman!
A very wealthy old man had a son when he was just past his middle age. He married a young and beatiful woman, someone he loved dearly. They had only a son and they were an happy family. But then mother and son had a car accident when the boy his only maybe 10/12 years old (he should be still in an age when he was old enough to have developed a own behaviour but it is not yet an adult). The boy remained blocked in the car with the dead mother for hours and when he was rescued he is deeply shocked. For months he behaved in a strange way, but doctors said it's right since what he has passed. But more the time went on and more the father realized that his son was not the same: he is like a child who doesn't grew, he sees the world with child eyes and he is too trusting even with unknown people. He is not dump, but he is like an eternal Pollyanna in male body. And plus, when the boy becomes a man in body if not in mind, he begins to have also sexual interests in other men instead of women and this attract all the wrong men to him, drawn more than the boy's wealthy than in the boy himself. The father is really worried since he is aging and sooner or later he would be not there to protect his son. And so when he happens to know that a very important business man he has some affair with, known for his ruthless behaviour in affair, but also for always honoring his word, prefers men's company in his private life, the old man developed a plan: the business man needs the old man's sign in an important business contract, and he decides to sign that contract if the business man will agree to take care of his son, in every possible way. And why the business man should not accept? The boy is young and beautiful, like his mother, and he will be also very wealthy when the old man will pass away. But what the young boy will say? And the ruthless business man will be sweetened by the naivee behaviour of the young boy?
So do you like it? Want to add some details or different perspective? For me it's a very romantic story, a classic one, and for this reason it's not very real: it's a story to daydream.

And these men are all men I knew from the time I lived there. These bigger than life, romantic type guys. The kind of men that inspires dreams. But alas, all happily married. *grins* But so was I. (I'll have to tell you one day how I met my hubby. It's quite amusing actually, and very romantic.)
The cop was a state trooper, tall with deep, expressive eyes that you could drown in, and the coach of my son's little league team. I was assistant coach, and I so looked forward to those games.
The writer and book shop owner was actually a gay couple who owned a rare book stop on the waterfront. I have several books of poetry I bought from them including my beloved Tennyson. A rare indulgence that cost me an arm and a leg. But when I held the book, I just had to have it. They sold antique photos, and that's when I started collecting my antique wedding photos.
And the Captain of the shrimp trawler, lord I had a crush on him like you would not believe. Tall, bearded, very manly and such a gentleman. He had this smile that would just take over his face. His son was on the little league team.
*sigh* Memories. Warm fuzzie ones.
