CHAPTER 1

It was late in the morning when Josh woke to the sounds of workmen plying their trade.

Still sore from the 16 hour flight despite traveling first class, he yawned and stretched trying to get some more sleep. The noise was too loud to ignore and after a few moments he gave up and got up. He navigated his way through all the boxes and unpacked furniture to the bathroom.

One of the few good things to come out of this TransAtlantic move, he thought, was the huge house his father had bought.

Relaxing a bit under the steaming shower he glanced around, taking in his new surroundings in daylight. They did a good job in his room and bathroom, almost exactly like the 3d models he was shown. The opaque window looked out onto the pool area and terrace and bathed the room in warm sunlight. Grabbing a towel he went to stand in front of the wall sized mirror and grinned at his mirror image. The last few months in the gym had taken care of the last of his baby fat and with pride he flexed his well toned body. Not too muscular, just right he smirked and went back into the mess of his room to find something to wear.

He found his father with his latest girlfriend Angela enjoying breakfast near the pool.

She was wearing a bathing suit that revealed nothing but showed all and Josh had to admit his father's taste in women matched his. Josh didn't know her too well yet but from what he had gathered she seemed nice and not too young, around 40 tops.

For a moment he regretted leaving his old home again, he missed Tamara, his former step mom. She was his favorite step mom and he had an affair with her for three years. Tamara was his first and only lover so far but he had a hard time imagining something better.

Perhaps Angela thought for a while as a sly grin formed on his face.

"So, did you get a good night's sleep Josh?" his father Jonas asked as he threw him a bottle of sunblock.

"Not really but enough for now" Josh said as he caught the bottle.

"We still need to finalize the sale of your holdings and get some decent costumes for tonight"

"So if you are up for it we can make the paperwork in order after breakfast and plunder a nearby mall for costumes" Jonas proposed.

"Sure dad, sounds like a plan" Josh answered and started on his breakfast.

Around noon they had finished the paperwork and Josh was quite a bit richer.

Together with his father he had started several internet ventures and because of his age, 14 at the time he had to have an adult partner. Jonas agreed to be his silent partner and investor and after 2 start ups he just became a silent partner as Josh made enough money to start another.

Josh was grinning when he saw the total amount on his bank account, not bad for a 17 year old kid he thought. Jonas smiled with pride at his son, he was becoming a self made man just like him.

"Any idea what you'll do next?" Jonas was interested in his son's next step.

"Let me get settled in for a few weeks and we'll see, I have a few ideas, nothing solid yet."

"Okay then, let's go shopping and spend some of that newly earned money," Jonas suggested.

Angela was already in the car as her car was the only one delivered yet.

It was a medium sized sports car with an open roof in a soft gray tone.

Josh would have to wait another two weeks before his car would arrive, another perk from moving to the States, driving a year early. As he approached the sports car he admired the curves of the car and its driver. He let out a wolf whistle, startling Angela and getting a grin from his dad.

"Nice car Angela" Josh said as she was trying to figure out for who or what his whistle was meant.

Jonas just laughed as he knew his son liked his new girlfriend in more than one way.

The ride to the mall was uneventful and thanks to the built- in navigator no wrong turns.

They agreed to meet back at the car in three hours, giving them enough time to explore and shop. Jonas wrote the store name and party address down for Josh as there was some kind of dress code. The party itself was given by one of Jonas's business partners and apparently it was one of those party's people really made an effort to get invited to. Josh had forgotten the who and what when his Dad told him a few weeks ago, still being in a rut over having to move. Now, being there it didn't seem to be so bad after all.

First things first Josh thought as he passed a phone store. He went in and got himself the latest iPhone and a provider with national coverage.

Texting his dad his new number, he knew he'd get one shortly as well.

Happy with his new toy he set out to look for the store he needed to get his costume from.

Looking around he saw few people, a lot less than he had expected for a mall this size.

When he arrived at the store he was amazed, it was huge.

It took him a second to gather his cool and he went in, looking for a salesperson.

A few moments later, a lovely woman dressed as a girly pirate introduced herself as Megan and asked Josh if she could be of assistance. She was too old for a girly costume, Josh guessed her age at 30 something but it did wonders for her figure. She had firm breasts, a nice round ass and still a good tight waist. Her shoulder length red hair made her face look a bit pale despite her tan and her lips were big and luscious.

Josh pulled his eyes away from her ample breasts so on display and flushed red when she grinned at him.

"Don't worry dear" Megan said "it's the costume and I am glad you approve."

"Now, what is it you are looking for?"

"I need a costume for … "he paused and got the note from his dad out of his pocket.

"The Santino RF party tonight" Josh finished, focusing on Megan's eyes.

Apparently this meant something to Megan because her demeanor changed instantly.

"Follow me" she said as she started to walk further into the store "and I'll get you a senior sales person."

Josh followed her, admiring her figure from behind saying "Why would I need a senior when I have you?"

Megan stopped, turned and smiled at Josh. "This party you are going to is one of the hottest parties in town and the costumes match the exclusive guests so the higher sales price gets you a senior sales person."

"Will they give me better service?" Josh asked, a bit confused.

"No dear, it's just that they get a higher commission on any sale they make and because they have worked longer here, they get all the big customers."

"I see, well I am a junior myself so I'll stick with you if you don't mind" Josh responded.

"That is sweet of you but I have to take you to the store manager, it's the rules."

She flashed a smile at him and continued her walk towards the store manager.
