15. SAMMY
SAMMY
Before Sammy knew it, two weeks had come and gone. Life on campus was like a dream come true in so many ways. Outside of the fact that Sammy loved living in a big house as opposed to a tiny apartment, there was the glorious surroundings outdoors too.
Fall in the city could be a cold, damp time. But somehow upstate Sammy didn’t mind the downturn in the weather – all it meant was that he knew he had a big fire to look forward to when he got home.
Sammy felt inspired to see how hard Harrison was working on his new novel. There was something so sexy about having a Daddy who cared so much about his passion and was willing to put the time into it to make sure that every little detail was on point.
The only thing that Sammy wished was that Harrison would let him read some of this new book! But as Harrison kept saying, the only time Sammy would be reading the book would be when it was ready to download from the Kindle store.
Sammy did kind of get Harrison’s stance.
Sammy himself was working hard on his new recipe book and was pretty secretive about the exact nature of the book too.
This was easier said than done though as with all the practicing he was doing in the kitchen, there were definitely plenty of hints on full view.
All in all, Sammy was finding that him and Harrison were a perfect blend together. They both worked hard in their respective arts, and then once work was done they would come together and have a wonderful time.
There had been plenty more spankings and stern discipline.
Sammy would always have his mischievous streak and no matter how hard Harrison tanned his tushy, Sammy could never resist a practical joke or an opportunity to act a little bratty – even if it meant being bent over a couch or tree trunk and given twenty sharp smacks.
The sex was never anything less than hot either.
Sammy was enjoying how open-minded Harrison was to trying out the various different kinks Sammy had checked off on their contract.
Although, that being said it was still the case that Sammy’s number one kink was playing with food – and this had certainly provided enough fun times between them…
‘Hmmm, I wish Daddy was here now,’ Sammy said, suddenly feeling the urge to have some naughty fun. ‘But Daddy does need his Daddy buddy time too.’
Sammy picked Zozo up and gave him a big squeeze. The pair of them were sitting at the kitchen table with a big pile of coloring pens and paper. Sammy had been trying out some illustrations that he thought might go well with his recipe book, and so far had produced some nice images.
‘Zozo, I think we’re getting closer to finishing this,’ Sammy said, a quietly satisfied smile on his face. ‘I think Daddy is going to be very proud!’
Sammy looked over toward his phone and saw a message from Lars flashing up on the screen…
LARS: Hey! I was thinking… should we take a trip to the city soon? I’ve got some meetings at the Science Center, and we could combine it with a trip to The Cuddle Corner? Could be a lot of fun so let me know, okay? Lars XXXXXoooooo
Sammy smiled. Him and Lars had become superb friends and it was always good to hear from him – in fact the only time that Sammy even looked at his phone now was if he had a message to read and respond to.
A trip to the city.
I do miss The Cuddle Corner.
But… what if I see Tucker?
Sammy very much felt uneasy about the prospect of running into his manager, Tucker.
The fact was that Tucker had sent several emails and messages to Sammy, but Sammy hadn’t opened a single one of them.
Sammy felt scared of what they might say and also didn’t even tell Harrison about them because he knew that Harrison would make him be a brave boy and face up to them.
The truth was that as much as Sammy had been enjoying being offline and not having to maintain his uploading and filming schedule, the threat of having to return to that way of life was always at the back of his mind.
Living in Harrison’s house was incredible, almost like a dream. But Sammy knew that at some stage he would need to have a reality check and make some plans for the future.
Still, that could wait.
With Harrison out scaling dangerous, craggy rock-faces with Zane, Sammy had the house to himself and he wanted to make the most of his time. Sammy typed a quick response to Lars and got back to work on his illustrations.
* * *
An hour later and Sammy was feeling highly satisfied. A stack of colorful, fun illustrations on one side of him and three brand new recipe ideas jotted down on the other side. This was a perfect morning’s work.
Sammy also wanted to make sure that Harrison knew how hard he was working, so took a quick photo of the kitchen table and sent it along with a sweet message too…
Sammy: See, Daddy – I’m a good Little! I’ve worked sooooo hard! And I even left you one of my homemade coconut-crunch cookies too. Hope you’re having fun. I’ll help you clean all the dirt off when you get home he-hee. Your boy, Sammy XoXoXoXoXo
Sammy knew that Harrison would be too busy to reply, so went to put his phone away. But as he was walking toward the kitchen worktop to make himself a fresh orange and kiwi juice, Sammy couldn’t resist having a quick look at one of his social media profiles.
Sammy didn’t understand why he was doing it. Maybe it was curiosity. Maybe it was because he had no one in the house to talk to. Maybe it was just an old habit…
‘OMG! What the…’ Sammy exclaimed, totally taken aback by what he was looking at.
Sammy was faced with a series of notifications from angry fans all wanting to know where the net content was. The comments ranged from angry to outright horrible insults and super-mean comments.
‘W-w-w-why are they saying these things?’ Sammy stammered, immediately logging into another social media account and seeing the same thing repeated again.
This was crazy, and totally not what Sammy had expected to see. Sammy knew that everyone was entitled to an opinion, but so many of the comments totally crossed a line…
Sammy you LOSER! Way to let your fans down! Consider me UNSUBSCRIBED!
Used to think I could rely on you. I guess maybe you’re just an ASSHOLE?
I heard he got cancelled? Maybe the rumors are true??? GROSS!
Sammy was shaking with upset as he continued to scroll. Each new comment or DM hit him hard. Sammy knew that he should put the phone away and block it all out, but the severity of the messages was getting to him in a big way.
What Sammy needed was to have Harrison with him in that moment. Sure, Harrison would probably have been angry at him for even checking his phone, but at least he would have put a protective arm around Sammy.
I… just don’t get it.
What did I ever do to them?
Why are they so mad?
Sammy began to feel himself panicking. There were way too many messages to respond to individually, and that wasn’t even taking into account the hundreds of comments either.
If only Sammy could explain that he was just taking a break for his own health, people would surely understand and be okay with it.
But not having his Daddy with him to take control, Sammy did the one thing that he knew he shouldn’t.
Sammy messaged his manager, Tucker. Sammy knew that Tucker was annoyed with him for taking time off but figured that Tucker might at least be able to say or do something to calm the situation down and make all the cruel comments go away or at least stop for a while.
It didn’t take Tucker long to respond to Sammy’s message, but his response wasn’t exactly what Sammy was hoping for…
You know, I could have told you this would happen.
There’s only one thing that can put it right.
You need to get back to your filming schedule and that needs to happen ASAP.
I put time, energy and money into making you have this profile, the least you could do would be to repay that and keep your end of the deal up.
Let me know when you’re good to go and I’ll have the cameras ready to roll.
Do not take too long thinking about this. Tucker.
Sammy didn’t know how to respond to this message. It didn’t seem fair to Sammy that Tucker was somehow blaming him for all the horrible comments and trolls attacking him. But on the other hand, Tucker was an expert who had taken Sammy from a small number of followers to the level he was at.
‘This is hard, Zozo,’ Sammy said, his eyes filling with tears. ‘I just don’t know what to do…’
Sammy couldn’t decide which course of action to take. He valued his reputation and had always enjoyed having online fans. The thought of alienating them all forever was tough to take.
But on the other hand, Sammy had been enjoying himself so much since going offline.
Either way, a decision had to be made. Time was not on Sammy’s side and whether his Daddy was home or not, Sammy knew that he needed to do something – and fast.
