_________________________________________
It was a closed meeting. Agent Stone hated those. Since the average staff was categorically not allowed there, and this rule extended even to "glorified babysitters." Therefore, on such days he is forced to wait outside. While inside, in a cold and hostile, nauseatingly official office, the same nauseatingly official stupid bastards are fucking the brilliant brains of his boss. Of course, the latter will pay it back without doubt, the nerves of these pathetic underachievers will also be significantly battered. Maybe the end of the day will be marked by a couple of nervous breakdowns, or maybe even an ambulance call…
But the agent already knows how much energy and effort this show costs for the doctor himself. How many nerves he himself has to spend on interacting with these narrow-minded people who are unworthy even to breathe the same air with the greatest genius of the planet, but they still behave as if HE owes them something…
Heck, it was easier with open meetings. There, Stone could take over a good half of the communication with the half-wits. The translation from ingenious to primitive for example…
And now the agent is shudder to think how much time will be spent simply on bringing information to the underdeveloped brains of those who think themselves superior.
Stone rolls his eyes once again and looks at his watch. There will be a break in twenty minutes, thank all the higher powers.
Robotnik is the very first one to storm out the office in nineteen minutes, thirty-two seconds, in absolute and pure rage.
"Oh, here we go..." - another agent next to Stone says through his teeth, and Stone gives him a contemptuous look. — "Prepare yourself, guys, now he'll get to us too…"
"Why the fuck are you, a bunch of brainless, useless biomass, still sitting here?!" — indeed, a stream of swearing falls on them without any preliminaries. — "Agent Brainshitts…"
"It's Bridgers…"
"Whatever... Go unload the truck with samples, which arrives in fifty-seven seconds. Boxes 751 and 812 should be by me in five minutes and not a second later, and God save you, crooked-armed baboons, from dropping at least one of the samples, you will lose your hands for good the same second. So, what are you waiting for, Agent Whoeveryouare? It concerns you too, and the another two imbeciles right there. Chop, chop, you have twenty-six seconds left! Stone, follow me."
Agent Bridgers gives Stone a meaningful, sympathetic look and leaves with the others. Of course these idiots think that even carrying heavy boxes is better than being alone with Robotnik. The agent grins imperceptibly and quickly catches up with the doctor near the elevator, jumping inside after him at the last second.
The doctor starts randomly knocking on the elevator buttons, as if this will make the doors close faster. When the elevator finally starts moving up, Robotnik leans heavily against the wall and sighs wearily, closing his eyes.
"That bad?" - The agent asks softly, and the scientist shrugs his shoulders without opening his eyes.
"The same as always." — he answers with irritation. — "I don't understand why I have to prove to these cretins that my projects are worthy of their funding? It's them, who should be lying at my feet and begging me to take their money in return for the fact that I am leading them to progress…"
"Of course, Doctor." - Stone responds with a soft smile. — "These fools are not even able to understand how lucky they are to be around you at all, and that you devote your precious time to their…"
"Oh, enough with it, Stone..." — Robotnik suddenly interrupts him, wearily raising his hand and stopping the agent. Stone sees him nervously tugging and straightening his gloves and shirt collar, then running his hand through his hair, squinting from the bright light in the elevator and massaging his eyes with his fingers. — "I don't want to hear about them anymore. I have three more hours of this circus to endure…"
"Okay." - Stone answers and resolutely presses the stop button. The elevator slows down sharply between the 45th and 46th floors. The lighting changes from bright to dim, bluish emergency light.
"What do you think you're doing, Agent?" - Robotnik hisses at Stone in disbelief. — "We need to go to the office at 61, pick up some of their moronic documents."
"Turn off the cameras." - Stone says with a sly grin, coming closer.
"Stone…"
"Turn off. The cameras. Please."
"Damn it... Fine." — Robotnik answers with a sigh and quickly enters the command combinations on the wrist computer. — "That's it. The whole floor is out. Satisfied?"
"Quite." — grinning even harder, Stone responds and presses himself close to the doctor, gently but insistently kissing him on the lips. The man hesitates for a couple of seconds, but responds by slowly exhaling and giving up, feeling the tension release a little. Stone pulls away from his lips and begins to trace kisses on his neck, slightly sucking and biting the skin, but leaving no marks. Agent quickly unbuttons doctor's coat and the top buttons of his shirt, descending lower and lower with kisses.
"Stone..." — the scientist tries to dismiss him, but not too persistently. — "Stop it, now is not the time. And I'm not in the mood…"
"I know. That's what I want to fix. At least a little." — the agent smiles and bites into his lips again, running an open palm over the doctor's groin. Despite the man's denial, there is already quite a decent bulge there.
"Come on. Just do it..." - Stone whispers hot in his partner's ear, continuing to squeeze and stroke his crotch through his trousers. — "Use me… I know you want to. You know you're allowed. You know that I want it too..." - he catches a stifled groan from the man's lips, grins and squats down in front of the scientist. He unbuttons his fly, lowers his trousers along with his underwear and releases the boner, already slightly pulsating with arousal. He glances at the doctor with darkened, almost black eyes in such a dim light, and runs his tongue along the entire length of his penis, gently stroking the head with his hand. Robotnik emits a convulsive groan-exhale and throws his head back.
"Don't hold back." - Stone asks again. — "No one can see or hear us now. Come on, Doc, do it. Take out all your anger on me, punish me."
He gasps as he feels gloved fingers clutching at his short hair, and then he is forcefully, completely unceremoniously, impaled with his mouth on doctor's cock. - "You talk too much and forget your place, Agent." — Robotnik says with hot anger, forcing the agent to take the entire length up to the throat and holds him there, not allowing him to move away and inhale. - "Don't tell me what to do. I come and get what I need and when I need it. Is that clear?" - Stone mumbles something unintelligible in response, gasping for breath. Tears appear in his eyes, he makes a weak attempt to escape, but is only pressed harder, painfully pulled closer by the hair. — "Come and get it, come and get it..." — Robotnik begins to fuck the agent quickly and mercilessly in the mouth, no longer holding back at all. — "I will use you as I want, be sure… Is that what you wanted, you little dirty pervert? My sweet, faithful slut..." - he still pulls the agent away from him by the hair, allowing him to take several convulsive breaths.
"Just look at you..." — Robotnik squeezes his face with his hand, crumpling his cheeks and turning his face, wet with tears, from side to side. - "Is that what you wanted? Is that what you're dreaming about, sitting in the corner of my lab, watching genius at work? Do you imagine this in your dirty, wet fantasies while jerking off? How do I take you and use you like a slut?"
Stone squeezes out something like "yes" along with a highly aroused groan.
"Well, then..." — the doctor grunts and grabs him by the hair again and forces him to take his cock in his mouth. - "Then show me how much do you want it. Aah, yeah, that's it… You want Daddy to use you, don't you? Is that it, my little bitch?" — Stone lets out a long, low moan and closes his eyes when the doctor accelerates the pace again and begins to fuck his mouth sharply and hard, really using it to satisfy his already almost painful desire.
"Yeah, yeah, yeah, Stone, yeah, that's it..." — Robotnik begins to exhale incoherent phrases in a whisper, allowing the agent to show more initiative by letting his hand to move along with his mouth along the length of doctor's cock.
Stone quickly jerks him off, without ceasing to take it deep into his mouth, almost to the throat, smearing his saliva and precum, starting to ooze from the head of the man's penis. The doctor's orgasm is already close, Stone feels it by the way the muscles of his thigh tense and tremble under the agent's palm, the grip in his hair tightens, and high-pitched moans are heard from above, full of almost desperate desire. The agent removes his hand from the cock and absorbs the entire length completely, burying his face in the crotch hair, holding his breath, and makes several swallowing movements with his throat.
"Stoooone..." — the doctor groans his name low and long and pours several hot splashes into the agent's throat. Stone coughs slightly, but does not pull away immediately, swallowing everything to the drop and waiting for the end of post-orgasmic convulsions.
Then he gets up and leans against the doctor with his whole body, finds his lips with his own. Robotnik kisses him deeply and sweetly, intercepting his own taste from his tongue, breathing intermittently through his nose, not yet fully regaining his breath after discharge.
"Stone, you... You're okay?" — quietly and uncharacteristically tenderly for himself, the doctor asks, taking off his glove and running his palm over agent's cheek, wiping away the tracks from tears. — "I... Wasn't too much?.."
"Wasn't too much." - Stone smiles broadly in response, leaning towards the touch of doctor's bared hot skin and looking at him with adoration. — "It's okay, you know that... if something was wrong, I would say."
"Mhm..." — the scientist smiles back wearily and contentedly, all the tension has gone out of his body and gestures. — "And what about you?.."
"Oh, it's nothing." — the agent quickly assures him. — "We are already late, the break is long over. They're already searching for you, probably… Let's leave it for the evening, okay?" — he smiles again and presses a soft kiss to his partner's lips for the last time.
"Okay..." — the scientist sighs and gets dressed, smoothing his hair and putting himself in order. Stone does the same, adjusting his suit and completely removing traces of all liquids from his face. Robotnik turns on the cameras on the floor again, and the elevator starts moving.
"How are you feeling, Doctor?" — as if nothing had happened, the agent asks with a modest smile.
"Better, Agent Stone. Much better." - The doctor grins back. — "But there are still three hours of this hell ahead... I hate closed meetings." - Robotnik sighs, pulling the glove back on his hand. — "I prefer the ones where these imbeciles beg me to work with them. It can be so much fun to mock them, their horror and despair are sometimes just hilarious."
"Hah, yes, I understand." - Stone laughs back. — "There will be such a meeting in a week. You might get it all out of your system."
"You'll be allowed to be there, I hope?" - The scientist raises an eyebrow and the agent nods affirmatively. - "All right, then."
When Stone joins the other agents ten minutes later, they look at him sympathetically, while he dreamily escorts the doctor into the boardroom with his gaze.
"So, he fucked you hard, huh, Stone?"
"Mmm?!" — the agent turns in complete shock to his coworker who asked the question.
"I'm saying, he probably went hard on you, didn't he? The boss?" - the agent chuckles in response. — "Yeah, I see it myself now, you might not come to your senses yet, don't even get, what I'm saying. You're not the lucky one, Stone. Only you could manage to get stuck in the elevator for half an hour alone with that freak... I imagine how he must have come off on you…"
"Oh, believe me, you have no idea..." — Stone grins and exhales with relief.
"Yeah, that's tuff, I don't get, how you even stand it. I wish I could have your stamina."
"You don't say..." - Stone responds, crossing his arms over his chest, thinking about how much longer he will have to wait alone with these idiots before his boss will have a chance to come off on him again…
________
"What do you mean, the meeting being extended?! It should have already ended almost an hour ago!" — the agent is so annoyed that he doesn't even realize, he is practically yelling at the general right now.
"I know, I know, but what did you expect?" - the military shrugs and sighs. - "It's always like that with this unhinged lab rat. Until the man amuses his megalomaniacal ego, we will not going home. I get it, he has nowhere to hurry, it's obvious that no one is waiting for him at home… Well, maybe some kind of robo-wife, hahah…"
Stone clenches his fists and looks away, restraining himself with all of his might, not to punch this grinning bastard in the face. But the general interpret agent's facial expression in his own way.
"Don't worry about it, Stone." — the man slaps him on the shoulder. — "You and the guys are free to go, your shift is over. I've already sent for the second group of agents."
"You did what?!.."
"Yeah, so here they are. Well, see you tomorrow, agents, I'll go have a smoke. To take off the stress, so to speak..." — the general emits another idiotic laugh, nodding to Stone and casting a meaningful glance at Robotnik, who is leaving the boardroom at the same moment. Stone follows the military with an extremely heavy look, still not unclenching his fists.
"Agent Stone, may we have a moment." — says the scientist, and the agent follows him. They move to the end of the corridor, away from prying ears. Stone throws one last irritated glance at the departing general and looks at the doctor. Robotnik follows his gaze and raises an eyebrow. — "What is it? What did that bastard tell you?"
Stone shakes his head and exhales, pulling himself together. — "It's nothing, forget it. What happened there? Why was it extended?"
"Changing the subject, Agent?" - Robotnik asks, narrowing his eyes suspiciously. — "What was that? Did he insult you? You know, if any of these freaks hurt you, I'll…"
"I know, I know, Doc, no, it's okay, really." — Stone is in a hurry to calm down his partner before he incites even more discontent from the management. — "He just stunned me with the news about the extension of the meeting. So, what happened?"
"Oh, as if you don't know these stupid cretins. They don't understand a word I'm saying to them and keep staring at me like a flock of sheep. They're going to cancel the development of MDW-152, can you imagine?"
"What, why?" — the agent gasps with indignation. — "You've been working on this for more than six months. What the fuck?"
"That's what I've been trying to figure out for two fucking hours already! They say it's too dangerous, unpredictable consequences and blah blah blah… What on earth could the unpredictable consequences be, if it is ME, who's building it?!"
"Agent Stone! You are needed here." — the secretary calls out, and Stone nods and waves his hand, indicating that he will be right there.
"And what do they want?" — the doctor asks with displeasure, crossing his arms over his chest.
Stone rolls his eyes and sighs heavily. — "We're being dismissed. The work shift is over…"
"WHAT?" — Robotnik predictably explodes, his loud shout makes several military men turn in their direction. — "You mean you're leaving?.." — quieter now, but still the scientist continues with fury.
"Working hours are over." - Stone shrugs, noticing how the anger in doctor's gaze is replaced by confusion, nervousness appears in his gestures. — "Maybe I... I don't know, maybe I'll go talk to them, try to switch with someone…"
"And what's the point? They won't let you in there anyway..." - the doctor sighs, running his hand through his hair and wearily closes his eyes. - "Nevermind, go home, Stone."
"But I…"
"I said, go home!" — the scientist raises his voice slightly again, leaning closer to the agent and flashing his eyes. But then he exhales sharply, calming down, and adds very quietly. — "It's okay, go. I will try to finish this farce as soon as possible."
"Are you sure?" — Stone also asks quietly anyway. He gently and imperceptibly squeezes the scientist's hand, taking advantage of the fact that they are standing very close to each other. From the outside, it looks like the doctor is once again scolding the agent for something, pining him to the wall, nothing unusual here.
"Yes, Stone, it's okay, go." — Robotnik answers in a whisper, quickly squeezing his hand in response and letting go. — "See you at home."
_______
When Robotnik opens the door of their huge, supermodern smart house, it's almost night outside. On the threshold, he is greeted by a quiet buzzing of a small badnik that immediately dives under his palm in search of affection. The Doctor smiles slightly as he closes the door behind him and runs his palm lightly over the top panel of the robot a couple of times, as if stroking a dog on the head.
"Hey, little one, did you miss me? Where's your other daddy?"
The badnik with a quiet, affectionate chirping flies out of the hallway further down the corridor into the living room. Robotnik follows him and finds his agent sleeping peacefully in a sitting position on the sofa in front of the TV. The scientist takes off his shoes and coat, pulls off his gloves and just climbs on top of the man, sitting on his knees, wrapping his legs and arms around him, and freezes in this position, exhaling wearily.
"Doctor?.." - Stone greets him in a sleepy voice, hugging him back and yawning. - "Hello there. Sorry, I think I blacked out while I was waiting. Hungry?"
Robotnik only mumbles negatively in response, still not moving.
"Okay, what about the shower?" — the same mumbling in response. — "Oh, come on, I know you're very tired, so am I. But we need to take a shower, and then move to the bedroom."
"No. I will stay here forever." — muffled due to the fact that he speaks into the agent's shoulder, the scientist responds. Stone chuckles softly in response and begins to slowly rise up with his partner, who hangs on him like a koala on a tree.
"Whatever you say, Doc, but I'm going where I need to go." — with these words, he stands up, grabbing the man with both hands under his hips, and carries him to the bathroom. Despite the difference in height, it does not cause him much inconvenience, he does it like it's something familiar and doesn't require much effort.
In the bathroom, Stone, without looking, pokes his elbow into the panel, and the jacuzzi begins to dial itself, warming the water to the required temperature. The agent puts the doctor on the edge of the tub and detaches his hands from himself. The man grunts in protest and looks at him resentfully from under his brows. Stone chuckles and starts undressing him, not paying attention to the ostentatious discontent.
"So, how did it end? Is MDW-152 being left in development?" - Stone asks.
"Did you doubt it, Agent?" — Robotnik answers the question with a question, rising up so that Stone can pull off his pants along with his underwear.
"Not a second." — the man responds with a smile and is the first to get into the bath, holding out his hand to his partner. — "Come here."
The doctor sits down with his back to him, settling between his legs, stretching his long legs in the huge jacuzzi, laying his head back on the agent's shoulder and leaning against his chest. Exhales with satisfaction, relaxing in hot water under the gentle touches of his partner.
Stone strokes his chest sparsely covered with hair, the agent's swarthy hands create a beautiful contrast with the doctor's pale skin. Stone kisses him on the temple, gently pours water on his head and begins to apply shampoo to his hair, gently massaging the scalp with his fingers. Robotnik closes his eyes, completely surrendering to these sensitive, caring hands and almost purrs with pleasure.
When the shampoo is completely washed off, the doctor puts his head back on the agent's shoulder and looks up at him, smiling from the corner of his lips. Stone immediately leans over and kisses him on that smile. At first, lightly and gently, barely touching his lips, but gradually the kiss becomes deeper and more insistent, the doctor throws his hand back on the agent's neck and pulls him closer to himself. Stone's hands continue to wander over his body, stroking his shoulders, chest, stomach and going lower. He wraps his hand around the doctor's already half-hard penis and slowly strokes it up and down a couple of times, and the man groans softly and low into the kiss.
Stone continues, slightly accelerating the movements of his hand and slowly and warmly kissing the doctor on the neck. Robotnik feels the agent's hard-on pressing against his lower back, and this turns him on even more. If they continue at this pace, it will all end very quickly, and this is not what he would like right now.
"Mmm, no, wait..." — the doctor stops the partner, removing his hand from his crotch and looking into his eyes with a slightly clouded look from fatigue and arousal. - "Stone... Want you. In me. Now."
"What, right here?" - Stone asks, catching his eye and smiling a little bit mockingly.
"No. I'm too tired for such activities." — the doctor answers seriously in a lazy whisper. — "But you're in charge today. Will you take me to the bedroom?"
"Of course." - Stone grunts in response and stands up, helping the doctor up. They quickly finish the water procedures, periodically interrupting for short caresses and kisses. Then the agent hastily wipes them both with a towel, quickly grabs the doctor under his back and under his knees, lifts him up and seals his mouth with a kiss, preventing him from resentment. The Doctor doesn't really like it when Stone grabs him like this, in "bridal style," but the agent doesn't really care. He just loves to drag his partner around the house, if it'd been up to him, he wouldn't let him out of his hands at all. Although, he knows that Robotnik also secretly likes it, likes to feel the strength of another man, but the doctor tries to preserve the image of an evil genius and the last grains of dignity at least in something.
In the bedroom, Stone gently puts him down on the bed and immediately lies on top of him. Robotnik hugs him, delighting in the almost hot warmth of his body, closing his eyes and completely relaxing under the many kisses with which Stone covers his face, neck, chest and stomach. When the agent spreads his legs, settling between them, and begins to lick his scrotum, almost weightlessly stroking the man's excited penis with his palm, the doctor emits a long, eager moan. Stone quickly takes the lubricant out of the bedside table, squeezes a little into his palm and returns to his occupation. With a hand in lube, he continues to drive along the cock, circles the sphincter muscles with his tongue, causing the partner to convulsively exhale-moan, and continues to moistly and persistently lick his entrance.
"Fuck, Stone, yes... holy shit, it's so good..." — the agent hears unintelligible phrases mixed with exhalations and moans and slightly changes the position. With two fingers slippery with lube, he penetrates inside, gently stretching the tight ring of muscles, with the other hand directing the doctor's penis into his mouth. He circles the head with his tongue and plays with the bridle, starting to fuck his partner slowly and evenly with two fingers, causing him low, long-drawn moans.
"Stooone... fuck... that's it, come here." — after a while, the doctor exhales softly. But the agent shakes his head negatively, releasing his penis to avoid overstimulation, and changes position again. He pulls himself up and lies down next to the scientist, kisses him and again penetrates with his fingers inside, carefully adding another one.
"I'm in charge tonight, you said it yourself." - Stone says with a sly grin, looking at his partner with adoration and desire. — "So, I'll decide when you're ready."
"Fuck, Stone..." — Robotnik exhales with a groan and throws his head back, shuddering from another charge of pleasure when the agent's fingers touch his prostate. — "You've become too impudent lately, I'll have to teach you some... mmm... subordination…"
"Yes, yes, absolutely… But not today." - Stone answers with an almost predatory grin and seals his mouth with a kiss, accelerating the movements with his hand. The doctor moans into a kiss and moves his hips towards him, clutching his partner's shoulder with his hand. Stone pulls away from his lips and exhales in a hot whisper in his ear. - "I'm the boss today, baby."
"Fuuuuck...." - The scientist gasps, rolling his eyes with pleasure. — "Fuck, Stone, fuck me, please… I can't anymore, please…"
Stone kisses him wetly and hotly on the neck several times, gently pulling his fingers out of his ass, and straightens up. Squeezes out some more lubricant from the tube and smears it on his desperately demanding attention member. Puts the cockhead to the partner's entrance and freezes, bending low over his face and making eye contact. Exhales a short moan into his lips as he begins to carefully and slowly push inside, feeling this hot tightness closing around his penis. The doctor groans and begins to move his hips towards the agent.
"Wait, wait, don't rush." - Stone says affectionately, stroking his cheek with his palm and smiling.
"I'm fine, Stone." - Robotnik whispers in response, wrapping one arm around his neck, the other around his waist and pulling him closer to himself. — "Move. Please…"
The agent is not able to refuse when the doctor asks him like that. Asks, not orders… And Stone begins to hammer into his body, rapidly increasing the pace, all thoughts instantly fly out of his head, his mind is completely flooded with frenzied, wild desire and pleasure, he is no longer able to restrain himself.
"Yes, yes, like that, Stone, please..." — Robotnik continues to whisper mixed with groans, clinging to the shoulders and arms of the partner for his dear life. — "Yeah, don't stop, Stone, fuck me…"
The agent continues to drive into him with rapid, rhythmic thrusts, without losing the rhythm, almost like a machine. But he feels that his discharge is already close, and slows down slightly, he wants to prolong the pleasure. Then he stops completely, slowly taking out his cock, not paying attention to the disappointed groan of the doctor. Stone gently forces him to turn sideways, and he lies down behind him, kisses his shoulder and again directs his penis into the man's anus with his hand. The agent begins to move, gradually starting to pick up the pace again, hugging the scientist, wrapping his arm across his torso.
Robotnik groans and throws his head back on the agent's shoulder, sticking out his ass and leaning back so that the man's penis penetrates deeper. Stone groans low in response to this action and accelerates the pace even more, running his hand into the partner's hair and slightly pulling. Robotnik screams and clutches at the sheets, trying to swing in time.
"Fuck, Doctor, I'm close... I, yes, oh my God..." — the agent breathes in his ear, his thrusts become sharper and jerkier. — "Aah, I want you so much, you're so fucking hot, I want you so fucking much, I can't hold it anymore…"
"Yeah, yeah, cum inside me, baby, I want to feel you, yes, please..." — the doctor barely utters with high moans. — "Fuck, Stone, touch me, please… I want... Ahhh! I want to cum at the same time with you, yes, just like that, yes..." — Stone wraps his hand around his penis oozing with precum from an almost painful desire, and begins to masturbate quickly, trying to get in time with his own chaotic, furious thrusts. He feels his partner twitching and arching sharply, choking and pouring hot liquid into his hand.
When the muscles of his anus are hotly compressed around the agent's penis in orgasmic convulsions, his own orgasm causes the agent to emit a long drawn-out moan and cling to the doctor even harder. He pushes a few more times inside the partner, feeling his own sperm filling him from the inside. They really cum almost simultaneously and freeze in each other's arms, trying to catch their breath, gasping for air. Stone kisses the scientist on the shoulder and buries his face in it, smiling a completely blissed out smile.
"Good night, Doctor." - Stone says softly and wearily, lying down comfortably and closing his eyes.
"Feeling sleepy already?" - Robotnik asks, massaging his scalp with one hand, finishing wiping their bodies with a specially prepared, wet towel with the other. — "It's not that late yet."
"Yeah, but I have to get up early tomorrow." Stone answers slowly and yawns. — "Walters is holding some kind of urgent meeting in the morning, I don't know why. But I feel its nothing good."
"Hmm, anyway, it's none of your business anymore, Stone. You can take your time tomorrow and sleep longer if you want."
"What do you mean, none of my business?.." — the agent raises his head and looks at the partner uncomprehendingly. — "What does that suppose to mean? What are you up to, Doc?"
"To be honest, I was up to it for a long time and have already done it." — Robotnik grins and moves higher, throwing the towel on the floor, continuing to look slyly at the agent. Stone lies down on his back next to him and puts his head on his shoulder. — "Actually, it supposed to be a surprise, and I planned to show it to you in the morning, but it doesn't matter. So, here, take a look. I hope you'll like it." — he takes a wrist computer from a shelf near the bed, hooks it on his wrist, calls up a holographic screen with a few quick movements of his fingers. Stone stares at the digital document for a couple of seconds and suddenly abruptly sits up on the bed, looking at the scientist with disbelief, misunderstanding and even resentment.
"Reassignment? Seriously?"
"Come here, read on and stop freaking out." - Robotnik answers, continuing to smile slyly, but Stone has known him for a very long time now and far to well to notice, that the man is slightly nervous. The agent sighs and lies back down, reading the document again, more carefully.
"Oh my God… Personal assistant-bodyguard. Really?" - he exhales and looks at his partner with a wide smile and genuine delight. — "It means…"
"In short, it means that I am now your direct boss. Neither Walters nor any of those dumb-ass military bastards are giving you orders anymore. That means you're mine, Stone. Fully and completely." - The doctor smiles, watching his reaction. — "From now on, you can be present in the laboratory as much as I want, attend all meetings without exception, no more closed meetings where I have to deal with human stupidity on my own... So, what do you say? Do you... like the idea?"
"Are you kidding?" — Stone laughs and pounces on him with kisses. — "Of course I do, Doctor! I didn't even dream of such a thing, how did you manage? And what about the other agents? How did you convince Walters?"
"The others will continue their service as before, without changes." — the doctor shrugs his shoulders. — "And Walters... To be honest, I started raising this topic for quite a long time ago, referring to the fact that I was sick of this crowd of idiots aimlessly rattling around my lab. It would be much easier to pick up one agent who would always be on hand, and let the rest be in reserve. I won't deny it, the old man really didn't want to give one of the best agents of combat intelligence to my personal use… He only agreed on the condition that they could pull you out for other missions whenever they wanted." - Stone looks up at the doctor with a worried, questioning look. — "Of course I refused, don't look at me like that! What do you take me for? So, that's why it took so long. Walters tried to persuade me to choose another agent, I did not agree, but today's delay in the meeting put an end to it. Walters gave up, admitting that with your presence, things could have gone faster. So... congratulations on the reassignment, Agent."
"God, Ivo, this is… You're just so..." - Stone pounces on him again with hugs and kisses. — "Thank you, thank you, thank you…"
"I'm glad you liked the news." - Robotnik smiles and gently kisses his partner in return. — "One more thing... Tomorrow, when you come to sign papers to Walters, try not to glow with happiness so obviously, and even better, play discontent and horror at the thought of working with me all the time, okay?"
"I'll try." - Stone replies with a chuckle. — "This is the best news in my life and definitely the best surprise ever! Oh, my God, I still can't quite believe it... so I'll be able to be in the lab all the time? And even on experiments and tests? Wow... so many new opportunities..." — the agent's voice drops to an enthusiastic whisper.
"Hey, hey, take it easy, assistant." — the scientist laughs softly in response. — "Firstly you go through the briefing, retraining and probation, and then we'll talk about experiments."
"Affirmative, sir." — Stone answers, without ceasing to smile and hugging his partner, snuggling even closer.
"Stone." — after some time, Robotnik calls the agent.
"Doctor?" — he responds wearily and peacefully.
"What did that half-wit General say to you today?"
"Oh, really? Do you have to bring it up now?" - Stone winces in response and closes his eyes. He hears a tense silence in response and sighs. He knows perfectly well that Robotnik will not back down until he gets his answer. — "It was nothing, I already told you…"
"Enough with this bullshit, agent. I saw your face expression very clearly." — the scientist interrupts him frowningly and coldly. — "And the way you restrained yourself from punching him in the face, I'm not blind. Can you tell me already, or will you continue with this nonsense?"
"Okay, okay..." — Stone answers quickly and sighs again. — "He assumed that no one is waiting for you at home, since you were delaying the meeting… Or maybe, except for some kind of sex robot, or something like that…"
"And that's all?" - Robotnik grunts in response. — "I've heard much worse things about myself, trust me. Did it get to you so much?"
"He made it sound more disgusting." - Stone replies and frowns. — "What makes him think that he knows anything about you at all, or about who might be waiting for you? I bet it's just a bottle of beer and his own hand, who are waiting for him at home…"
"Would you like to raise his search history and find out?" — the doctor asks with an insidious grin.
"What? No!" - Stone retorts sharply and indignantly. — "We won't do that, Doctor, it's a strong violation of personal boundaries and generally illegal."
The agent slowly turns his head to the scientist, and their eyes meet. They look at each other for a couple of seconds and simultaneously burst into loud laughter.
