Chapter 6
The Kiss of Two Dads
Nathan came home feeling a little more at ease than most Fridays. The boys had played hard at the park, and Jason was full of excitement about the pool day tomorrow.
After dinner, he helped his son change into pajamas, tucked him in, and sat beside him until he drifted off. He cleaned the living room a bit, loaded the dishwasher, wiped the counter, and finally stepped into the shower. The water felt good — warm, grounding. It was one of those quiet nights that almost felt peaceful.
By 10:15 p.m., Nathan was in his black briefs, the soft cotton snug around his hips. He stretched a little, rubbed a towel through his damp hair, and picked up his phone from the charger, ready to maybe start a conversation.
A message from Parker was already there.
Parker (10:00 PM):
"Hey, had a busy day at school coaching. Quite tired. I’m gonna call it a night. Good night, dad."
A breath slipped out. He’d been looking forward to it — and now, he was a little disappointed.
But he also felt glad.
Glad that Parker had thought of him. And that mattered. It really mattered.
Nathan typed back.
Nathan (10:17 PM):
"Good night, dad."
Then he slipped into bed beside Jason, who rolled toward him in his sleep. Nathan wrapped an arm around his son’s small frame and stared at the ceiling for a while, his thoughts gentle and quiet.
He had no idea that exactly twenty-four hours from now — in the next room, the messy one he used for storage — he’d be wrapping his arms around that very dad and mating with him like it was the only thing that mattered in the world.
Nathan woke up to the distant sound of video game music echoing from the living room. The clock read 8:30 AM. Jason was already up, no doubt immersed in one of his weekend games, still in pajamas with bed hair and unmatched socks.
He reached for his phone.
One message lit the screen.
Parker (6:00 AM):
Good morning, dad.
Nathan smiled.
Nathan:
Good morning. Woke up early?
Parker:
Yeah, a little morning run. Then breakfast. Getting ready for today.
How about we come at 2PM?
Nathan rubbed his eyes and thought for a second before typing:
Nathan:
How about 4PM? I’ll set up some BBQ and get some beers for us too.
Parker:
Yeah? Nick’s really excited.
Nathan:
And what about his dad?
There was a pause, then a reply:
Parker:
He’s excited too. Maybe a little too excited.
Nathan laughed and hit the react button before replying:
Nathan:
Time for breakfast for us.
Their texting carried on through the morning and into early afternoon — light, warm, easy.
Parker had been right. He was excited.
But so was Nathan.
Maybe even more than the boys.
At 4:05 PM, the doorbell rang.
Jason jumped off the couch. “I’ll open it!”
Jason grabbed Nick’s hand, and the boys darted off to the living room, their laughter filling the space with carefree energy.
Nathan’s heart quickened as Parker stepped inside. He wore a fitted black T-shirt that clung to his broad shoulders, and his denim shorts hugged his hips tightly, outlining the curve of his thick, muscular thighs—and most notably, his full, round, bubble butt. The shorts molded perfectly around Parker’s powerful ass, drawing Nathan’s eyes again and again, stirring a quiet heat he hadn’t expected.
Nathan himself was in loose grey shorts and a worn tank top, relaxed but aware, his gaze lingering on the confident ease Parker carried like a second skin.
Parker glanced around the living room as the boys settled in. He leaned a little closer to Nathan, voice soft.
“So… are you excited?”
Nathan chuckled, his grin wide.
“Without a doubt.”
Then he added, lowering his voice just a little,
“I think we should keep the boys away from the screen. Maybe we should make them head out to the pool?”
“Good call,” Parker nodded. “Let me use the bathroom and get us changed into swim shorts.”
Nathan called out to Jason and told him to lead Nick out back.
“I’ll get the BBQ grill going,” he added.
Jason nodded and took Parker and Nick upstairs, showing him the way to Nathan’s room so they could change.
Parker followed with a small smile, letting the boys handle themselves. But once they were done and Nick had dashed off toward the pool in his little swim trunks, Parker lingered behind in the bedroom, unzipping his bag—only to sigh when he realized he’d forgotten to pack his swim shorts.
After a beat, he shrugged to himself and peeled off his fitted black T-shirt, revealing his broad chest, lightly dusted with hair. Then he undid his denim shorts, easing them down his thick thighs. His legs were strong, covered in a light coat of dark hair. When the shorts fell away, his snug white briefs came fully into view—stretched tight across the firm swell of his bubble butt, hugging the curves with perfect tension. The cotton clung close to his thighs and hips, outlining his strong form with every step as he headed back downstairs.
Nathan turned from the grill and did a double take, eyebrows rising.
“Forgot your shorts?”
Parker shrugged, smirking.
“Looks like it. Hope you don’t mind the emergency swimwear.”
Nathan gave him a look, half teasing, half flustered.
“You sure you didn’t do it on purpose? Just to… look like this?”
Parker grinned, a little playful.
“If you don’t like it, I can remove it instead.”
Nathan laughed, his voice slightly nervous.
“Shut up, man. Our kids are here.”
Parker’s voice dipped.
“And if they weren’t?”
Nathan turned quickly, shaking his head with a flushed grin.
“Just… shut… up,” he said under his breath, then added,
“I’ll go get changed too.”
As the boys laughed and splashed in the pool behind him, Nathan headed upstairs, heart beating faster. He opened his drawer, paused, then pulled out his own white briefs. They weren’t something he wore often, but they felt right. He slid them on — snug, clean, clinging to the lines of his body with a soft stretch across his hips and thighs.
When he stepped back outside, Parker was already standing near the grill, arms folded, watching the boys in the pool.
Parker turned and caught a full view of Nathan — bare-chested, white briefs snug against his body, framed by soft dark hair on his legs and chest.
“Well,” Parker said, his voice low, a teasing spark in his eye,
“what excuse do you have to wear it?”
Nathan gave a crooked smile.
“Didn’t want you to feel bad.”
Parker’s eyes flicked lower for a split second.
“I’m just excited,” he said, with a seductive smile.
The boys played in the pool, splashing and laughing, their voices echoing off the water.
The two dads stood side by side near the BBQ stand — both in briefs, both hairy, their bubble butts accentuated by the snug cotton that clung to them. Neither spoke much at first. A quiet tension hung between them — not awkward, but charged with something neither dared to name. They were both nervous, shy in ways they hadn’t been in years. And yet, their eyes wandered, sneaking glances when the other wasn’t looking. Or… maybe when he was.
They made a few quick BBQ items — just enough to satisfy. Some grilled chicken, hot dogs for the boys, a couple of skewers for the dads. The scent of smoke and spice filled the backyard as the boys splashed in the pool, their laughter echoing over the water.
Nathan and Parker stood side by side near the grill — both in white briefs, both broad-shouldered and hairy, their toned thighs and bubble butts accentuated by the wet fabric. The tension between them was quiet but undeniable. Neither said much, but their eyes wandered, stealing glances when they thought the other wasn’t looking. Or maybe hoping they were.
By 5:30, they called the boys over. Towels wrapped, they dashed to the table and devoured the food with the energy only kids could bring after swimming.
As they finished, Parker leaned over with a grin and picked up a soft pool ball.
“Wanna join them? Something fun?”
Nathan raised a brow.
“Like what?”
Parker smirked.
“You and Jason versus me and Nick. Hold the ball, count to fifteen while the other tries to steal it. First to count wins the round.”
The boys were already cheering. Nathan hesitated, smiling softly.
“Guess I can’t be the guy who ruins the game.”
“Exactly,” Parker said with a wink. “Let’s go.”
They reset the game. The dads and boys moved to their corners. Parker shouted,
“One, two, three—go!”
They placed the ball in the middle of the pool. Jason and Nick bounced with excitement on one side, while the dads took their spots on the other. Parker called it out with a grin,
“One, two, three—go!”
Nathan lunged forward and grabbed the ball, raising it high above his head. Water splashed around him as he turned—but Parker was right there. He wrapped his arms around Nathan from behind, laughing as he tried to stop him from counting.
The contact was sudden, close.
Parker’s chest pressed against Nathan’s back, warm and firm. Nathan felt the softness of his belly against the curve of his spine, the brush of chest hair against his shoulders. One of Parker’s arms hooked around Nathan’s waist, the other under his arm—close enough for Nathan to feel the heat of his skin and the wet hair of his armpit brushing his side.
They were moving slowly, clumsily, but neither seemed to care.
Nathan counted between gasps of laughter.
“One… two… three…”
Parker wasn’t really stopping him. Just… holding him. Letting the moment stretch out. Nathan could feel his breath near his neck, his grip not quite firm enough to be serious.
By the time Nathan reached fifteen, both boys were cheering. Nathan tossed the ball and turned just slightly to look at Parker—who gave a mock sigh of defeat and a half-smile, his eyes lingering a second too long.
They reset.
This time, Parker made the move first, grabbing the ball and lifting it with both hands.
Nathan came up behind him and wrapped his arms around his chest. He felt the wet hair on Parker’s torso beneath his palms, the flex of muscle beneath the softness. His cheek brushed Parker’s shoulder as he leaned in slightly to count—his voice close, low.
“...One… two…”
He wasn’t rushing.
Parker’s body was steady against his, and Nathan felt the thump of his heart, the subtle way their hips aligned in the water. The contact was innocent on the surface, playful for the kids watching. But something deeper hummed beneath it.
“Fifteen!” Nathan called out finally, breaking the quiet tension.
The boys whooped again. But the dads…
They just looked at each other, breathless and smiling, not quite sure what had just passed between them—but knowing it mattered.
They let the boys take over next, stepping aside to opposite edges of the pool. Nathan leaned back with his arms resting on the stone edge, Parker mirrored him on the other side. Their eyes met across the water—silent smiles exchanged under the soft light of late afternoon.
Jason and Nick splashed happily between them, laughing and tossing the ball, each winning a round, calling out their victories with pride. The dads watched, their smiles lingering longer now, their silence more comfortable.
Then came the inevitable call:
“Dads again!”
Nathan stepped forward with a grin and grabbed the ball before the boys could reset it. Parker met him from the other side, not waiting for the count this time. He came from the front, arms playful but determined, pretending to reach for the ball.
Nathan instinctively tucked it behind him, and Parker stepped in closer—grinning, half-laughing—then suddenly wrapping his arms around Nathan’s sides.
The air changed. The splash of water quieted around them. Parker’s hands rested at Nathan’s back, holding—not firm, not pulling—but there.
Nathan started to count, breath catching slightly.
“One…”
He felt Parker’s breath against his cheek.
“Two…”
Their faces close—too close.
“Three…”
Neither of them moved.
Their eyes locked. The air between them heavy. Parker’s lips were inches from his. Their chests rose and fell against each other, wet skin warm, muscles tense beneath the still surface of the pool.
They were lost—just for a second—in that moment that wasn’t part of the game.
Then—
“Can we go play on the PlayStation now?” Jason asked, climbing out and wiping water from his eyes.
Nick perked up.
“Yeah! We unlocked the next level today!”
Nathan chuckled.
“Alright, alright — go dry off first. No wet footprints in the house.”
The boys dashed inside, dripping and laughing, their excitement already shifting to controllers and screens.
And just like that, it was quiet again.
Just the two of them.
Still in the water.
Still standing too close.
They placed the ball in the center again.
It was quiet.
Just the two of them.
The air thickened with something that wasn’t just humidity.
Parker counted,
“One… two… three,”
and they both darted.
Nathan reached the ball first and tucked it behind him, retreating to a corner of the pool.
Parker followed—not quickly, not playfully now, but with something slower. Intentional.
He reached him, arms sliding around his sides again.
Nathan whispered,
“One…”
Parker’s chest pressed against his back. His hands rested on Nathan’s hips.
“Two…”
Their eyes met over Nathan’s shoulder, closer now than they’d ever dared.
“Three…”
Nathan barely breathed the word.
Parker leaned in—just enough.
Their lips touched.
It was soft.
A test.
The faintest brush of warm skin against warm skin.
Parker paused, his breath catching.
But Nathan didn’t move away.
He turned to face him fully, eyes never leaving his.
Then, with slow motion, he brought his arms up and gently wrapped them around Parker’s shoulders, drawing them chest to chest.
This time, the kiss deepened.
Still slow.
Still quiet.
But no longer hesitant.
Nathan’s lips moved against Parker’s—soft, searching, mouths parting just slightly.
Their noses brushed, their chests pressed together, breaths mingling between them.
Neither of them rushed it.
There was only the kiss.
And the quiet truth that they had both known was building, long before now.
They pulled apart just slightly, foreheads resting together, breaths mingling in the cool evening air.
Nathan’s hands stayed firmly around Parker’s shoulders, as if afraid to let go.
Parker’s fingers traced light patterns along Nathan’s back, grounding them both.
The world felt still, paused in this quiet bubble of warmth and understanding.
Neither of them rushed or pushed; this was no fleeting moment of passion, but the slow unfolding of something deeper — something that had been quietly growing between them all along.
Nathan whispered,
“I… don’t really know what this is… but…”
Parker’s voice was soft, nervous, hesitating,
“But…”
Their eyes locked for a long moment, and Parker finally breathed,
“With you… I wouldn’t mind this, even for the rest of my life.”
Without another word, they wrapped their arms around each other and kissed.
Parker whispered against Nathan’s lips,
“With… you… till the rest of my life.”
