a fake and the people were being allowed back in to meet their loved ones or to stand and wait in the long departure lines.
Andrew grimaced at the chaos around him, but he could already sense Tommy’s
presence in the terminal, his mind filled with colourful recriminations against every airline in the world. Andrew’s frown turned to a smile as Tommy barrelled through the security barrier, a bag slung over his shoulder, his face lighting up when he saw Andrew waiting for him. Uncaring of the milling crowds they wrapped their arms around each other and grinned happily at one another, their lips touching as they exchanged hellos.
“Tell me you came by cab,” Tommy said, “and that I don’t have to travel vampire
express to the hotel.”
Andrew chuckled at Tommy’s aversion to being flown around. His firefighter
boyfriend had no head for heights unless there was a ladder under him. “We’ll hail a cab, though it would be a lot quicker if—”
“Never mind quicker. As anxious as I am to get you naked and in bed, I’d rather wait
for the cab.”

On the way to the hotel Andrew quietly told Tommy about the bunker, the storage
room and the fact there was some kind of pit behind sealed doors.
“And you want to explore this pit, right?”
“Yes, but I’m afraid you won’t be able to come with me. Apart from the fact it could be
dangerous, getting you clearance to accompany the President’s entourage would be
impossible.”
Tommy stared at him for a long moment before he said flatly, “You know, you must
think I am really dumb.”
“No, of course I don’t!”
“Then why would you even say what you just said? You’re a vampire, you can do just
about anything—and that includes getting us both inside that bunker without being seen.
Come on, Andrew, you know I’m right.”
Heaving a laboured sigh, Andrew said, “Marcus was also right. Very well, but you
must stay close to me every moment.”
“I’ll be glued to your side the whole time.” Tommy stroked Andrew’s thigh. He looked
out of the taxi’s window at the desolate city streets. “Are we nearly at that hotel yet? Doesn’t look too hospitable around here.”
The cab had turned a corner and was slowing as the driver drove down a narrow alley.
Ahead of them they could see what looked like a half dozen or so men blocking their way.
“Uh-oh,” Tommy muttered. “I’d bet this isn’t a welcoming committee.”
“I think you’re right,” Andrew said at the same time as he leant forwards and smacked
the driver on the back of the head. “Reverse…now!” he snapped, meeting the driver’s hostile eyes in the rear view mirror. The man’s expression changed to one of fear and compliance.
The taxi skidded to a halt, then immediately and rapidly backed up. The men gave chase,
yelling at the driver to stop, but Andrew overrode their demands with mental images of
what he would do to the driver if he did stop.
Once back on the main road, Andrew threw open the door and dragged Tommy out of
the cab with him. “Sorry, but it’s vampire express from here, my love.” Wrapping his arms around Tommy he soared upwards leaving an astounded group of thugs gaping as he and Tommy sped away into the night sky.

“Okay, I’ll give you that one,” Tommy said, opening his eyes as Andrew alighted on the
balcony outside what he assumed to be their hotel room. “There was a definite need to get the hell outta there fast.”
“I could have taken them.” Andrew waved his hand over the glass door’s handle. The
door slid open revealing an opulently furnished room with an extremely large and enticing bed.
Once inside, Tommy pulled Andrew into his arms. “I know you could’ve taken them,
but you were thinking the same thing I was—that it was only going to delay what we both
really want—to fuck each
