“Yeah. Well, Jade hasn’t had a lot of family around,” Justin admitted, only that wasn’t quite accurate. It was more like she’d had no one, other than Justin, of course.
“Huh. Well, I have too much family.” Ken grinned at him, then leaned in to kiss Justin briefly, no matter who was around and might see. “I think this might actually end up working out perfectly.”
It might just end up working out perfectly, indeed.

The wedding stretched on into the evening, and there was dancing, which Ken and, of course, Jade, got into. They even got Justin onto the dance floor a few times, which was a pretty major accomplishment. As the hours wound on, as the heat finally started to fade from the sun-baked earth, Ken got a soccer game going to use up the last of the energy that the preteen set had.
There would be some parents sleeping soundly tonight, with their kids thoroughly exhausted. Jade was going to be one of them, too, because she flung herself into the soccer game with a passion that was only surpassed by the enthusiasm that she showed for dance.
Finally, she was rubbing her eyes, and Justin had to face facts. This party would go on and on, but it was far past Jade’s bedtime, and the rest of the kids were slowly starting to disappear, dragged off to bed by parents and most of them actually not complaining about it that much.
“Jade and I gotta go,” Justin told Ken, and they faced each other, just gazing into each other’s eyes. A lot had been fixed between them in a very short time, but Justin was still a little bit unsure of where they stood.
When he looked up at Ken, he saw that same uncertainty in his eyes, and that helped.
“Come home with me?”
Would Ken say yes? Justin was ready to trust, but that didn’t mean that Ken wanted what Justin did. But the only way to figure that out, he’d realized finally, was to do something novel. To open his mouth and ask the question.
“Sure.” Ken grinned at him, then waved at his sister, who looked blissfully happy as she swayed in her new husband’s arms. There were no big, long goodbyes to make, most people had already left or were getting to the stage of the evening where they got shitfaced drunk.
Time to go.
Even in that short time, though, Jade had started to fall asleep, resting her head against Justin’s side, and Ken smiled and reached down, scooping the little girl into his arms as easily as Justin could with a toddler. With a soft sigh of pure contentment, Jade rested her head on Ken’s shoulder, and the three of them made their way to Justin’s car.
They drove home, and the tension spun between them. They got Jade to bed, tucked in and already in dreamland, and that tension grew thicker. By the time it was all done, Justin had found that he couldn’t look away from Ken, not for anything, and the best part was that Ken was looking at him right back.
“So, are you going to take me to bed or what …” Ken started and then cut himself off when …
… At the same time, Justin spoke, “Do you think it’s about time to …”
They grinned at each other, and for two men who were very different on the surface of it, Justin had to admit that he and Ken had the same thoughts enough of the time that it was almost disturbing. Orithad been before he had made the decision to trust this man.
“Yeah,” Ken agreed. “I do think it’s about time to drag your sexy ass to bed and ravish you all night.” He swept Justin up into his arms suddenly, so strong and sure, and Justin couldn’t remember the last time he had been picked up. He really didn’t. Probably when he was a child, too young to have any memory of it whatsoever.
He would have thought he would hate it. And indeed, there was a moment of sick uncertainty, a whirling in his head that made it hard to think, that almost had him struggling to get down. But then his eyes caught on Ken’s and held there, and he rested his head on Ken’s shoulder and just let himself be carried.
It was okay to let himself be taken care of a little bit.
Through Justin’s house to the bedroom, to the huge, soft bed that awaited them, Ken took Justin, and as he did, Justin grinned suddenly and started to kiss at his throat, nibble on his ear, and brush his lips along Ken’s jawline. After all, if he didn’t have to walk, he could definitely think of fun ways to drive Ken crazy for him.
With a soft groan, Ken put Justin down on the bed, then slowly, piece by piece, stripped Justin of the nice suit that he wasn’t sure when he was ever going to wear again. His own hands were busy tugging at Ken’s clothes, revealing his body bit by bit, hands and lips and tongue worshiping every bit of it that he could get at.
“So I got tested,” Ken admitted suddenly, his lips brushing over Justin’s cheek, his hand slipping slowly down his body to where his cock waited, hard and eager and ready for that touch. “I’m clean.”
Justin took a second to realize what Ken meant by the seeming non sequitur, but he smirked a little bit when he did.
“I’m clean, too,” he assured him, and he knew that he was. He’d been tested since the last time he’d been with anyone, and even then, he’d always been pretty big into using condoms, at least since he’d grown up. Jade was great, but she had been a surprise.
“Okay. Do you wanna?”
Justin’s smirk widened, and he considered teasing the other man, but he didn’t make him clarify. He just nodded, then rolled onto his back. This was a trust exercise for him, and if he was going to do this, he wanted to do it all the way.
“I wanna,” Justin assured him, pulling Ken on top of him. He kissed him thoroughly and then whispered up into his ear, “Fuck me.”
Ken was already reaching for the lube, pushing Justin’s legs apart and pouring the cool, slippery stuff between the cheeks of Justin’s ass. His fingers pressed it inside of him, delving deep, getting him slick and ready.
