The down side of the media circus was that now that Mr. Stark was around, everyone else was sort of forgotten.
Joe went over to find the judges, and appeal the entry, but even the judges were flocking around the last minute winner. So he grabbed a few complimentary water bottles and went to sit in the shade with Guy, starting by pouring one of the bottles over him.
Guy just screamed.
“Oops,” said Joe, “I meant to pour the one on you that wasn't on ice.” He tried to look innocent.
Guy gave his brother a wall-eyed glare. Then he said, “second is okay,” because really, second in a iron man was really good. “How was my time?”
Joe sighed and handed his brother the air temperature water and started to drink the cold one. “You shaved almost twenty seconds off your best time.”
Just as he sat up someone dropped a tee shirt on each of the brothers, and they both flinched away from the garments as if they had been stung. “Gee,” said the young man, “what did you think I was tossing you? Cattle prods?”
Guy looked at the shirt. It said: Stark Enterprises. Joe looked around. Everyone was being handed shirts. All of them had the man's face grinning almost... lecherously? Voraciously? Well definitely in a cat that ate the canary way.
Guy pointed to where Kaz Kaiser was shredding the shirt he had been given and then stomping it in the dust.
The brothers laughed.
Cut to commercial: Can’t afford to go to Kate and Willie’s wedding? Try the next best thing! Attend the reception at The Rhinecliff. http://www.therhinecliff.com/index.html Your host, James Chapman, is affable, approachable, charming and will make certain that you enjoy the best that the Hudson Valley has to offer. Whether for a drink, a meal or a stay, or better yet one of their fabulous special events, this author heartily recommends the The Rhinecliff. It would be rude not to.
It was long after the crowd cleared that Tony's limo halted by the Handsome brothers. He opened the door and said, “Get in, boys, I'll give you a ride to your car.”
Joe wasn't going to, because you don't get into a car with a stranger, but Guy was up and said yes before his sensible brother could act. That put Joe in the position of having to go, or Guy would be alone.
“May I ask an impolite question?” Guy asked. their benefactor.
Tony gave him a pleased look, “I wish you would.” He said, “but if I don't like it I get to throw you out of the limo.”
“While it is moving?” Guy asked, gamely.
Tony just waggled his eyebrows.
“Are you filthy rich?” Guy asked the man.
“Beyond the dreams of Avarice,” he nodded.
“Good, can I ask a favor then?” Guy was always pushing things.
“Within reason, although, I think your brother is busting a gut there.”
“He's an actuary.” Guy explained, solemnly.
“Ask then.”
And that is how Joe Handsome found out that he could have a free shirtless jet ride to Chicago in Tony Stark's private jet.
