The Commander's Legacy - MxM

Epilogue

---Sage's POV---

I grinned proudly, shaking my head at the exited grin on Laura's face as she stood in line, waiting to get her diploma. My eyes slid towards Davy, that niggling thought of suspicion in the back of my mind. He was showing a grin that made my skin crawl, already anticipating the consequences of his behavior.

A sigh slipped my lips before I heard a few cheers when another kid shook hands with the Dean and proudly held his diploma in the air for his parents to see. It was sad that dad never got to see Laura and Davy's graduation but I know he would've been very proud.

"Something wrong?"

My emotions quickly shifted as Declan brushed a knuckle over my jaw, keeping our hands intertwined before he tugged them closer to his lips and kissed the back of my hand. Ignoring the squeezing of my heart, I sighed and motioned towards Davy.

"My brother's planning something."

Declan followed my gaze, studying my younger sibling for a moment before he winched and rolled his head back with a groan. "Its his graduation so I'm sure he has been planning this quite a while. Judging from the coveted glances being tossed Josh's way, I doubt the man's going to like it."

"Or, knowing Davy, Josh could react the complete opposite." I murmured, keeping my eyes on my mischievous sibling. He was vibrating with excitement, which didn't make him obvious, since most of the other kids were just as ecstatic. But in the way he nibbled on his lip and glanced at his two best friends, I just knew he was planning something.

I glanced around past the rows of proud parents and relatives chattering busily before my eyes landed on Josh close to the stage. He was leaning casually against the wall, an amused smile playing on his lips while his eyes never strayed from Davy's back.

"Well, we'll find out soon." Davy chuckled, nudging me in the side to focus back on the stage. Davy was confidently strutting op the stairs, his two friends following to collect their diplomas.

As soon as they got it, they twirled around to the audience and promptly ripped their graduation robes off of their bodies, making me groan in annoyance while laughter and wolf whistled echoed through the room.

All three boys were dressed in lacy boxers; some kind of see-through shirts were poured over their chest as they flaunted what they got. Davy went even as far as to throw a cheeky wink in Josh's way, blowing a kiss to the stunned man before the trio quickly scurried out of the room.

Josh was stunned, jaw wide open as his eyes were transfixed on Davy's behind as it shimmied out of the hall. As soon as his line of sight was broken, the man shook his head and shoved his way through the crowd, who quickly parted for the man

I held a hand in front of my eyes, feeling my cheeks heat up with mortification before Declan laughed beside me, trying to pry my hand away. "What's seen can't be unseen...ugh, darn it Davy!" I cursed before pulling Declan with me.

As soon as we passed the doors, my eyes squinted against the low sun, trying to spy where Josh and Davy went off to. I only spotted Davy's friends and after questioning them, I just knew we weren't going to see my brother again for the next few days.

"So, where is he?" Declan asked as I plopped in the car and closed the door, waiting for Laura to say goodbye to her friends. A small scoff slipped my lips as I rolled my eyes. "According to Alan there, Davy just managed to come to a halt before Josh tackled him, tossed my brother in his car and drove off like the devil was on his heels."

Davy snorted before he started laughing; the whole car shook and by the time Laura got in the car, my man was gasping for air, rubbing a few tears out of his eyes. My sister blinked, confused before she shot me a worried look.
