Michael arched his eyebrow.

The boy’s a trained lawyer?

This just got a whole lot more interesting.

I need to know more…

‘How about we sit down and go over some of the finer details,’ Michael said, motioning over toward the couch in the corner of the workshop. ‘And you can tell me all about your journey. Law school to candy maker… I’m intrigued.’

Korben smiled coyly and the pair of them walked over toward the couch.

Michael was beginning to sense that there were many layers to Korben, and he was desperate to peel them back and find out as much as he possibly could…

Chapter 5

Korben

The rest of the day whizzed by after Michael left the workshop. Korben couldn’t recall the last time he felt full of so much hope and optimism for the future – and that was saying something given how naturally optimistic Korben was.

Korben had been a bit worried that Michael might withdraw his offer or try to change the terms at the last moment – a tactic that Korben had learned about during his legal training. But thankfully, Michael certainly appeared to be a man of honor and decency.

Even when Michael appeared to get a bit grumpy as he waited for Korben to confirm his decision, Korben could tell that he was a kind soul underneath his gruff exterior. There was something about Michael’s demeanor that Korben found utterly compelling – and he couldn’t wait to tell Louie exactly what that was either…

‘You should have seen the look he gave me,’ Korben giggled, lying on the floor in his apartment with his duvet underneath his body and surrounded by pillows.

‘Was it the look?’ Louie asked, his eyes widening. ‘Do you think he wanted to pull your briefs down and spank your butt?’

‘I think… he probably did,’ Korben said, his cheeks flushing red and his mind instantaneously imagining exactly what that scenario would look and feel like. ‘And for a second, I thought he might actually grab me and bend me over the work desk.’

‘OMG!’ Louie squealed, rolling over and getting closer to Korben as the pair of them lay there in their pajamas. ‘I’ve met Michael a few times, and I can imagine he gives the hardest spankings.’

‘Do you think?’ Korben wondered, unable to stop smiling. ‘It’s a shame we’re just business partners.’

‘For now you are,’ Louie chuckled. ‘I don’t think it’s going to be too long before that changes.’

Korben giggled excitedly. But the reality of the situation was that Korben knew he would need to keep things professional. There was surely no way that he could stand up to Michael and insist on making the key business decisions if he could simply put his across his lap and paddle his butt until he relented and let him decide everything.

No, Korben knew that he had no choice but to keep all naughty thoughts of Michael as his Daddy as nothing more than fun fantasies.

It would only lead to trouble if the terms of their relationship changed, and Korben wasn’t going to let anything spoil his chances of success with Korben’s Kandies. He had worked far too hard and given up way too much to do anything to jeopardize his success.

‘Come on, let’s do some coloring,’ Korben said, sitting up and reaching over to a pile of Disney themed coloring books. ‘I think I’m going to do some Mickey and Minnie mouse. How about you?’

‘Hmmmm. Tough choice!’ Louie said, his voice soft and the innocence in his eyes giving away the fact he was entering into Little Space. ‘I want… Donald Duck. Quack! Quack! Quaaaack!’

The two friends began to color together.

With a huge box of coloring pencils, Korben and Louie had a rainbow of options as they carefully colored and doodled over the pages of the Disney books.

Korben loved hanging out with Louie in moments like this. Danny would have been there too, but he was otherwise occupied.

‘You think Danny might have a secret Daddy?’ Korben wondered out loud.

‘I think… maybe,’ Louie said. ‘I don’t know for sure, but I think he might be on a date with him now. I tried to find out where he was going, but he kinda wouldn’t say. We can ask his later. But now… color!’

‘Yay!’ Korben squealed, holding up his multi-colored Mickey Mouse Astronaut page. ‘I want to go to space like Mickey.’

‘Oooh, it would be so much fun,’ Louie said, his eyes wide and full of wonder. ‘But it might be scary without our stuffies.’
