Men of Manaia

[deepbluexocean]

There was something about the way Aleki looked at him that had Atlas feeling like a challenge had been laid down, and he smirked.  Maybe Aleki would come out on top, but Atlas wanted to find out.  Luckily Aleki seemed interested, and when the man touched him, Atlas felt every nerve firing, his skin tingling at the contact.  Being a companion with an interested client always felt erotic, but this was even more true with Aleki.  “Yes sir,” Atlas replied, that simple word making him shiver in anticipation.  “My apologies.  Won’t happen again.”  It seemed like Aleki was going to be a dominant partner.  Standing next to Aleki, so close they were touching, Atlas reached out and ran a finger down the man’s chest.  “Well sir,” he answered, “we could go into one of the private rooms, and you know just what goes on down there.  And then we can see if I really can handle what you have in mind.”  Grinning, he added, “Truth be told, we don’t even have to go into one of the private rooms, sir.”  He wanted Aleki anyway - and anywhere - he could get him.

He gave a smirk at the other's quick obedience. Aleki was not used to being the boss, the one in charge, even if he owned this island, but it was something he could get used to in time. His fingers brushed still over the male's skin, that smirk only widening as Atlas played along, the finger on his chest, suggesting they take all of this further. He had the option to take it up to the private rooms or to go anywhere that Aleki pleased. Motioning to the bartender to make him another drink, he looked back to Atlas, " I don't really feel like moving just yet, and I want to see how brave you are, let's just stay here for a bit, okay?" Aleki suggested before he leaned forward, lips brushing against the others before taking them in his own.

Cassio watched the other with a soft smile, tilting his head and listening to him talk about being a resident. He wasn't exactly sure what it was, but he got it enough from context clues to understand what the other man meant. "Well props. Medical school sounds hellish and stuff." He wasn't sure if he was being too casual with the man, but he figured Jackson would put him in his place if he did.

"I'm fine, no worries." He waved off any concerns the other man might be having. "So give it to me straight, doc- What's wrong with me? Or am I in totally perfect condition?" He felt totally fine, but he was still somewhat nervous that he was sick without knowing or that Dr. Roberts would tell him he needed some kind of surprise surgery.

" It is equally hellish and brilliant, loved it, internships and residency I mean." He hated the outcome of internships, being snubbed for chief resident, but at Manaia, Jackson was one of the best residents at the hospital, if not the best. He couldn't stand here and deny that it wasn't because of his upbringing, it was his father's doing, and his brothers' doings that made Jackson the man that he was when it came to medicine, as well as himself. " This is all just for show Mr. Forte, getting the blood drawn, making sure you're clean and healthy to be...well...enjoying your time here," Jackson tried not to think about what really went on here, why he was doing physicals so that Cassio could have sex. He pulled his stethoscope from around his neck, placing the buds into his ears, " If you don't mind, could you change into the medical garb for me please," Jackson asked, moving to place the cold metal disk on Cassio's back once he was dressed, going through the steps. In between the check for breaths, he asked, " So what are you doing here? I saw your staff?"

Avery had been told he had to pass intake before he was allowed to start work or move in and so complying with that meant an afternoon in the doctor's office, which he had been initially quite grumpy about. Initially. That was of course until the doctor came in and his jaw dropped. Doctors should not be allowed to be that handsome. He tracked the other with his eyes, trying not to seem like he was oogling the other too hard. "They were uh- you know. Tests. More rigorous than I thought they would be but I hope that doesn't mean I'm not healthy. I mean I should be." he said with a smile rubbing the back of his neck as he averted his gaze in case the other man caught onto the fact that he was so entranced by how handsome he was.

"Dr.Roberts. Are you the um- main physician in the city? I mean like for staff and stuff if I had a problem would I come and make an appointment with you?" Because if the answer was yes Avery might be finding himself sick more often.

Jackson was wrapping up for the day, it had been a busy one with seeing the bombardment of new clients and staff, as well as finding out that his brother was here of all people. Mr. Masterson was going to be his last patient, and he looked up with a bit of a weary smile, " Rigorous, hope they didn't put you through too much of a ringer," Jackson chimed, his British accent peaking through as he checked the bandages. He, of course, noticed how beautiful Avery was, there was no denying it, but being a doctor, he remained professional, at least for now, what he didn't notice was how much Avery was gawking at him, he never saw stuff like that. " I am a mix bag at this hospital, firstly, I am a surgeon, that is why I am here, to do that, but given the size of the island and in turn, the size of staff here at Manaia Medical, I am expected to do multiple jobs to keep me busy, but since you were paired with me for this session, you should be staying with me, yes." Moving to the sink, he went to wash his hands, making sure everything was ready for the physical exam," Would you mind changing into those robes please." It was the standard medical garb, backless.

Honesty Hour! ( Please make sure you address who the question is to! Jackson or Aleki! )

Jackson knew that it would be a change of work ethic when he came to Manaia Estates. It wasn’t the level one trauma center that his father’s hospital was, he wouldn’t be bombarded with case after case. Granted, Aleki Mala and the mystery buyer had managed to secure more private and secretive cases to Manaia Medical Center, and that was the bulk of Jackson’s workload, but that only gave him one case every other week. The majority of his job was at the clinic, checking up on clients and staff, making sure they were safe and healthy, and then days like this, intake. Every staff member and client had to go through intake before enjoying the island. There were tests and a physical they had to pass. The nurse handled the test, making sure they had everything they needed before they showed the man to a private room, where Jackson entered not long after, “ I hope the test wasn’t too much, I’m Dr. Roberts,” He greeted, looking down at the chart, “ How are you doing today?”

.

He’d been told every staff member and every guest had to go through intake before they were able to properly enjoy the island which made sense. Given the nature of the community that was built here, and everything it had to offer, health was important– but none of that mattered to Richard. He nodded his way through introducing himself to the nurses and the front desk staff, he smiled and shook hands and put his charm and agreed to come back sometime for a proper tour– the man was in auto-pilot mode, doing and saying whatever he had to so he could get into one of the examination rooms; so he could surprise Jackson.

“Well your bedside manner certainly leaves much to be desired.” He teased with a feigned frown and pursed lips. Lingering for just a moment on the examination table, he watched his brother from behind as he went over the chart. Either he was having a busy and just didn’t register whose name was at the top of the paperwork, he was skimming to get things done quickly so he didn’t pay attention to the name, or he was so certain he’d gotten away from the family that he just assumed it couldn’t have been his Richard Roberts II– honestly it was amusing that Jackson didn’t seem to realize he was talking to his oldest brother.

Seeing as he had a window to take this surprising reunion a step further, Richard pushed himself up and hopped off the table so he was standing behind the younger man. Gently placing his hands on his hips, Richard then lightly tugged Jackson back and wrapped his arms around his midsection; leaning down to rest his chin on his little brother’s shoulder. “I’m a bit surprised you are handling the exam rather than getting one of the nurses to do it, Jackie. You must have finally matured and stopped blushing like a mad man at the sight of a naked body or,” he mused, his voice lowering into a husky, teasing whisper, “did you only do that for me?”

[beautifulmxn]

He didn't check the name. Richard was his fifth patient today, on top of checking in on a VIP patient, one who was just here to have his surgery on a private island, away from the prying public eyes. He had no clue that Richard was even here on the island until he opened the door, walked inside, and looked down at the chart, seeing Richard Roberts II, and his heart dropped. He couldn't help but jump as Richard took him into a hug, pressing against him and causing that familiar blush to move over his cheeks. " R-Richard, what are you doing..." Jackson managed to get out of the male's hold and turn around to face him, just before he realized he had to do the male's check up, there weren't many doctors at the hospital today and it was just a check up, Jackson could handle that, right?" " I'm just doing my job, what are you doing here?!"

[cassioforte]

Cassio was lazily swinging his legs over the edge of the hospital bed. It was so strange to have to have to get a physical again as Cassio hadn't actually gotten one since he had been in school and under his parents insurance. Ever since then, he just avoided going to any kind of medical professional. "I'm doing fine. I mean I certainly hope I am. Otherwise I suppose you'd end up telling me, right?"

Cassio tried to straighten out his hair, pushing it behind his ears. "I've never been a good tester. But hopefully I passed this one, yeah?" He chuckled softly. There was a nervous energy to the young man, but he was trying his best to act like he was totally unaffected by the whole situation.

"No offense, but aren't you like way too young to be a doctor? I mean you can't be that much older than me, right?" He raised his eyebrows. It wasn't that he was suspicious of the other's credentials, but rather Cassio couldn't help comparing them both. He was certain his parents would have much preferred him to end up in medical school than where he currently was.

[beautifulmxn]

Jackson was used to that question by now, it was pretty standard at this point in his career. Moving to place his clipboard down, the young doctor moved to wash his hands, " I am a surgical resident, I'm in my last year before my board exams." Meaning that small little services like these exams are something he has done hundreds of times already. Drying off, Jackson moved back to Cassio, " But we're here to talk about you Mr. Forte, how are you feeling?" He reached to the bandages on Cassio's arm from where they drew the blood for testing, making sure it was wrapped nicely, " Did you get your snack, feeling good? No lightheadedness?"

The island was on fire! It had been already a few months since Manaia Estates was opening up, the clients were settling in, humble beginnings but he knew it would grow in time. He decided to go check out The Bi Bar, a play on his own sexuality, the whole island being kind of an ode to his life, being in New Zealand, flaunting his sexuality just off the coast of where he grew up, it was amazing. As Aleki walked inside and checked out the companions on service today, he saw Atlas, one of his favorites if he was being honest. Aleki had a hiring manager, so he hadn’t gotten to meet every client and staff member here on the island, but he has certain seen Atlas around. Before he went over to the man first, he needed a drink. It seemed Atlas had beaten Aleki to the punch, tapping on his shoulder just as Aleki got his whiskey cocktail. Turning around, the dyed redhead leaned back against the bar, looking at the companion, “ Maybe, depends if you think you can handle me that is,” Aleki teased.

Atlas had seen Aleki before, and he definitely knew who he was.  How could he not?  This entire place was his baby essentially, his creation, so of course he was well known around Manaia.  So even from behind, Atlas was fairly certain that the redhead he was approaching was the founder of their island home.  It wasn’t just the hair either, it was the way the energy had changed in the bar, something Atlas had come to associate with the Manaia founder’s presence.  Honestly Atlas wasn’t expecting much as he approached Aleki, maybe a polite declination, but it was worth a shot on this slow night, wasn’t it?  When the man turned to face him, Atlas smiled.  Aleki was hot, most definitely, and Atlas found himself hoping this would lead somewhere; he wondered if Aleki ever indulged in his desires with the various companions at the bar.  Leaning against the counter, Atlas replied, “I think you’ll find that I can handle anything you throw at me, Mr. Mala,” his smile growing.  “I was hired for a reason, after all.”  This was the first time they were actually meeting, so while Altas was fairly certain Aleki already knew who he was, he still decided to introduce himself.  “I’m Atlas,” he told the other man.  “Mind if I keep you company for awhile?”

[beautifulmxn]

Aleki smiled at the companion's reply, not finding much truth it, Atlas had no idea what all Aleki could throw at him, for once he had all of the power and he could very much make Atlas tap out if he wanted to. Turning more towards the other, he took the male in, what he was wearing, how he wore it, he looked amazing, his hand reaching forward and rubbing over the male's side, pulling him a bit closer, " I wouldn't mind at all Atlas, Mr. Mala is for sure not the right name to call me, sir is fine," He teased. Releasing his hand, Aleki turned to knock back his drink with a smirk," How would you like to keep my company, Atlas?"

Atlas wouldn’t necessarily say he liked his job at The Bi Bar.  It wasn’t something he’d been forced into, not really, but it was something he had sort of felt he had to do.  After all, he had his family to think of, and thanks to the hand he’d been dealt in life, Atlas didn’t really have anything else he could do that would make him the kind of money this would.  But he had to admit that being a companion at Manaia was much better than turning tricks back home in NYC.  In the city, there was a huge element of danger, either by being caught or by encountering the wrong kind of guy.  But here everything was legal and regulated, and Atlas at the very least felt safe.  And honestly, the men here was hot as fuck, and they usually knew what they were doing, so at least he mostly enjoyed himself, even if he wished he had other options.  He was working tonight, though it was a bit slow, so Atlas walked to the nearest guy, whose back was to him.  He knew he looked good tonight.  Tapping him on the shoulder, Atlas asked, “Looking for a companion for the evening?”
