Using old pictures Jeremy was able to make a dye that matched Josh's hair back when he was in his twenties -- during the winter when his hair was darker, because in the summer Josh's hair used to turn almost blond, bleached by the sun. Jeremy was certain that Josh would not let him bleach his hair.

For Robert, Jeremy kept his word and did not dye his hair black but he did get rid of the "yellow effect", making his gray hair actually look gray. He then gave Robert the same haircut he had given David. Josh though had not changed his hairstyle in over 15 years -- with it cut short and parted to the side. Jeremy knew that Josh would not be amused by his new hairstyle but he was sure that Robert would love it. He cut it short like normal but spiked it with gel. This way if Josh did not like it he could just wash the gel out and comb his hair the old way.

"So... what do you think?" Jeremy said nervously behind Josh as he turned the chair to face the mirror.

"It's... different," Josh replied diplomatically.

"It's hot!" Robert grinned as he came up from behind. Going though men's style magazines he and Jeremy had picked this style out.

"It makes me look like a kid," Josh complained.

"Josh, trust me, you're no twink." Robert grinned as he grabbed Josh's strong right bicep."

"But I'm also not twenty anymore."

"You can always wash it out," Jeremy spoke up.

"Yep." Josh grinned as he played with it.

"But you will keep it for me... won't you, love..."

"Rob..." Josh sighed, hating it when Robert would give him puppy eyes.

"For me, baby... pleeeeeeeeeeeze."

"Alright... for one month," Josh relented.

"By that time you will be ready for another haircut." Robert grinned.

"Yep... so I can fix that damage." Josh grinned as he lightly punched Robert on the shoulder.

"Or make it permanent." Jeremy smiled.

"Not likely." Josh smirked.

"Well, you know about Jeff and I. We've both done silly things for love." Jeremy smiled knowingly.

"And this is just the beginning..." Robert said excited.

"Really?" Jeremy asked surprised.

"Yep...First we are going skiing this Christmas. During spring break we are getting married. When school is over, I'm going to take Josh down to Florida for a six-week spa treatment. Then after our bodies are tuned up for the next 12 years, I'm going to take Josh to a gay resort in the Caribbean I've heard about and keep him there for a month. Then we will come home just in time to send David off to college and Mike and Patrick's wedding. We will live in the same house for a year until Greg and Nate graduate and then it's off to Florida or California to start up the new firm," Robert said like a kid telling his teacher his plans for the family trip to Disney World.

"Sounds like you all will be pretty busy."

"We will be." Robert grinned.

"But moving away. Your family are my best male customers. What will I do without you?" Jeremy worried.

"Cut women's hair," Josh joked.

Jeremy did not find it amusing. "Hey, I may be a gossip queen but I prefer cutting men's hair."

"That's cause they let you do all the talking," Clair, who was working a another customer nearby, said."

"Oh hush... I'm not that bad," Jeremy protested.

"Whatever," Clair said, not taking her eyes off her work.

"See... I need you guys. It's no fun doing all these straight people's hair... they just don't get my colorful personality. The married women are the worse. They think just because I'm gay that I understand mps[RCN1] and can give them sex tips to use on their husbands. For some reason they never listen to me when I tell them to stick a dildo up their husbands' asses. Jeremy complained in such an honest tone that it sent everyone laughing.

"Well how many gay clients do you get."

"Oh I get a few every now and then... a birthday, a couple celebrating their anniversary, a guy going to a circuit party in California or Florida, no one regular... not a whole family. You guys are in here so often I feel like I'm a part of your family... the campy uncle who embarrasses everyone but is still loved."

"Jeremy, I didn't know you saw us like that?"

"Well, come on... ya'll are like the ideal gay role models. Ya'll are kind, generous, humble, committed, raising three great kids, have lots of money but don't show it off like many of pricks who do so. Jeff strives to be just like you, Josh, in his own campy way."

"And do you try to be like me?" Robert asked.

"Oh hell no... I don't even try to be like anyone else. God broke the mold when he made me. But I do try to be just as loving as you and Josh have always been, even when the two of you were "just friends"." Jeremy laughed. "The two of you could barely say that with a straight face each time I recommended that you sleep with each other."

"Well, you were right." Robert grinned.

"Yes I know... that should just tell you that your hairstylist knows best and not to argue with him. Now get going... I spent my lunch break on the two of you and a Baptist woman's bible study group is already in the lobby. It's going to be a long day."

"Ok Jeremy, but why don't you and Jeff come over for dinner tonight," Josh said as he got up from the chair.

"Really... like a real family dinner. I've not had one of those since I came out to my folks on Mother's Day," Jeremy said, raising his hand to his face is if he were about to cry

"We would be glad to have the two of you," Robert agreed.

"Ok... I promise we will be on our best behavior... and I will have to change," Jeremy said, looking at the tight pink outfit he was wearing."

"Don't worry about changing," Josh said to try to ease Jeremy's mind.

"Well, this is my 'fuck-you-I-don't-care-if-this-makes-me-look-gay' outfit. I need to wear my 'good-boy' clothes. Come to think of it... I think I gave all those away to charity after mom returned my Christmas presents to her unopened. I'll have to see Jeff. He has excellent taste in hetro-wear."

"Whatever makes you comfortable." Robert gave up. It seemed that clothes took on extra meaning to Jeremy. If Jeremy wanted to tone down his clothes, that was his business.

"Will do... but we might be late," Jeremy replied, a happy glee in his eyes.

"That's fine... how about nine o'clock then."

"Perfect... Now you two go and tell Jeff about dinner and that I will need his help later picking a faultless outfit."

"We will... see you at nine, Jeremy," Josh said, trying to hide the sadness in his eyes.


As Josh and Robert made their way to the men's clothing store Josh just had to speak up. "I didn't know that Jeremy had such problems with his family."

"Neither did I. Makes me wonder if all his 'camp' is just his way of coping," Robert replied.

"Well... how long have we known Jeremy?" Josh asked.

"Ten years."

"Just as he was starting off... he's like 31 now?"

"Give or take. I don't know when his birthday is."

"We should see if we can get Jeff to tell us."

"Josh... is Jeremy going to become another of your projects?" Robert asked... the worry building up in him.

"Ok yes... it was a bad idea to give that clerk job to Paul."

"He was a call boy. Between faxing letters and answering the phone he was hitting on the associates in the hope of finding a sugar daddy."

"I cleaned up that mess myself. He did not work under me but I was the one who fired him."

"Yes... there was also Frank and Terrance... a pair of scam artists. Came to you asking for money for a gay children's home. I'm not sure how much money you gave them before Mrs. Williams gave you proof that they were pocketing the money.

"And I sued their ass and made sure they went to jail."

"The point is Josh you are too trusting."

"But I clean up my own messes... and this is different."

"How so," Robert pressed.

"We know Jeremy. He has a job. He is in a stable relationship. All he needs is a family."

"Ok... but I better not find adoption papers on the table when we get home," Robert warned.

"No... I don't think Jeremy is interested in adoption."

"That's not what I meant and you know it... the house is full unless you want to ask Dan to leave."

"I would not do that," Josh said a little offended.

"Yes... but I also know you, Josh. You like having the house full of people and if adding Jeff and Jeremy will make you happy then I won't stand in your way."

"I just want our friend to be happy."

"Yeah... and him being happy will make you feel all good inside," Robert said knowingly as he tickled Josh under his robe.

"Be careful there... I'm not wearing anything underneath."

"I know... and you know the best way to talk me into letting Jeremy and Jeff join our family is for you to fuck me silly."

"Yes... but you know that everyone still thinks you are a bottom."[RCN2]

"I don't know why they would have that idea. I fucked Andrew often enough." Josh smiled.

"Yes... It must be me... They know you and I dated, and they also know I never let Dan penetrate me."

"So since you have the rep of being such a top, everyone assumed that I have to be a big bottom."

"And I like it that way." Robert grinned as he sandwiched Josh between the store mirror and himself. "I love the idea that you have had me in a way that no other man has."

"And you enjoyed it," Josh agreed, feeling Robert's hard-on popping up his robe.

"I did indeed... but I have to say I like being inside you more."

"You would say that regardless if it were true or not."

"Yep... I have my reputation to think of, but I'm always open to you changing my mind."

"I'm sure you are... but we need to wait unless you are willing for both of us getting arrested for indecent exposure."

"Hey I wouldn't mind doing it behind bars... sounds a little kinky."

"Now you are talking like Mike. Come on, Robert, it's time we get the kids their clothes."

"Alright... never thought that having kids would interfere with my sex life," Robert joked.

"Do you mind?" Josh asked.

"Oh no... I really enjoy it. Come on, hubby, it's time to buy mama some new undies.


Jeff had never helped out in an underwear fitting before but once he got the jist of it he really got into it. When David drew the line on wearing a thong, Jeff, who had a similar build as David, offered to model them for him.

Jeff loved the feel of the cold air on his ass and the way it made his dick stand out. David, who lacked the full body tan that both Jeff and Philip had, decided that it was just not for him, but Robert, noticing how enamored Jeff was with the thong, ordered three pairs for him as a tip for all the work he did with the kids.

This made Jeff very happy. Knowing that Jeremy would be coming in later to pick out some clothes, Jeff kept the thong on so he could surprise him later on.

Each of the boys ended up with a half dozen boxer briefs, five pairs of silk boxers, three new pairs of the form-fitting jockstraps, a bathrobe each, three business suits, three pairs of kaki pants, six dress suits, four ties, a half dozen cotton t-shirts, three lycra shirts, and five tank tops. The only difference was that Philip also got three bright-colored thongs."

Robert and Josh got the same except Robert added three thongs to his pile while Josh picked out a half dozen white briefs. Robert also picked out a pair of black leather pants and a leather jacket just for fun.

When it was all done they had amassed a mighty large bill. Jeff, who was on commission, was making two months income off it all. He wanted take Jeremy out on the town and celebrate but having been invited to his new benefactor's home for dinner also excited him. It would be good to know some people in a "normal" sense, which Jeff meant outside of the bar scene.

Jeff knew how much his lover idolized Josh Harper and Robert Townsend. Jeff had to admit that Josh was a pretty cool guy as well.. Josh's relationship with Robert convinced Jeff that being "gay" was not all about the sex. Josh and Robert had loved each other for over a decade without actually sleeping together if what Jeremy had told Jeff was true.

Of course, Jeff could see by the way Josh would lean against Robert that all of that had changed. This only made Jeff happy in seeing the two lovers back together. Andrew... Jeff had never really liked. He seemed to walk around like a snob. Andrew's sunflower yellow dye job had not been a mistake. Andrew had made one too many crack jokes about the clothes Jeremy had worn and Jeremy had retaliated by messing up the dye mixture. Since Josh had spent the whole time at the spa telling Andrew not to get his hair dyed, Andrew didn't know who the blame, Jeremy or himself.

In the end Andrew came back and had his head shaved just so people would not stare at him. It was the first hint that Jeremy and Jeff had that Andrew was on his way out."

After closing time, Jeff took off his clothes, wearing the thong underwear as he got out some clothes he was certain Jeremy would love. He picked out a deep purple shirt, black tie, black pants, and a pair of black leather shoes.

Knowing Jeremy's measurements to a T, Jeff made quick work of tailoring the clothes to fit him. He had just finished with the pants when there was a knock at the door.

Jeff greatly enjoyed the look of surprise on his lover's face when he opened the door to let Jeremy in.

"Where did you get that number?" Jeremy licked his lips on seeing the black thong Jeff was wearing.

"It was part of my tip... boy, can that family shop."

"When they set their minds on something they can sometimes go overboard," Jeremy agreed.

"They also told me to add your clothes to the bill... as a way of tipping you but with the commission I'm getting they didn't need to tip either of us."

"That good?"

"Yep... we can take that vacation to Palm Springs now."

"Great... so where is my new outfit." Jeremy jumped up and down excitedly.

"In the backroom." Jeff grinned as he turned his near bare backside to Jeremy.

"Ooooo... I think I can get to really like this," Jeremy said as he reached over and let his hand run down the smooth, tanned, cheek.

Unfortunately, the two of them did not have the time to play around. Jeremy had to rush to get dressed just to make it to Josh's house by nine o'clock. It was a good thing that Jeff drove as he -- worried about making a good impression -- was nervous.

When they arrived, it was Patrick, a friend of Jeremy's who opened the door. He was dressed in a t-shirt and blue jeans. "Jeremy... you made it... and looking fabulous as always."

"Thanks hon... you look relaxed."

"Well, that is the way we like it," Patrick said as he leaned over to kiss Jeremy on the cheek. "Hey Jeff... I see you are still in your work clothes.... Are you wearing the ... thingy?"

"Yes, I am, Patrick... want to see!" Jeff said with an evil grin.

"Would I!" Patrick said excitedly.

"Come on, Jeff, you can give Patrick a strip show after dinner," Jeremy sighed. So far things were happening just as if they had gone to a bar... and that was not good.

Things got better though when Patrick lead them to the kitchen where Josh and Nathan were busy.

"Now this is more like it." Jeremy smiled, watching father and son get dinner ready.

"Hey Jeremy... Jeff... how are the two of you?" Josh said as he went over to hug but careful not to touch them with his hands.

"Very happy with all the business you gave us." Jeff grinned.

"What is that cooking?" Jeremy asked... smelling something very familiar.

"Baked chicken with dumplings," Nathan replied as he kept an eye on the cucumber he was cutting."

"Dumplings... I've not had dumplings in years," Jeremy said in near tears.

"What's wrong?" Josh asked.

"My mom used to make dumplings," Jeremy said as he wiped the water from his eyes.

"Is this bad?" Nathan asked worried.

"No... it's good... it's very good," Jeff said as he wrapped his arms around Jeremy.

"Is there anything I can do to help?" Jeremy said between hiccups.

"You can butter the dinner rolls," Nathan suggested.

"Just so long as you don't make him cut an onion," Jeff joked to help lighten the mood.

"Isn't he precious? I'm making a fool of myself so he acts the bigger fool," Jeremy said with a small smile. Where are the rolls?"

"In the oven... they should be ready to come out. The oven mitt is on the counter next to it," Josh said as he pointed to the oven before he went back to work on the banana cream pie he was filling.

Jeremy went to the oven and looked inside it, surprised by the large amount of food inside the double ovens. Being used to cooking only for two he had not seen so much food except at an Asian buffet. Taking the hot mitts, Jeremy pulled out the dinner rolls and took them over to the stove. He enjoyed the smell and golden color of the freshly baked rolls.

"These were not store bought," Jeremy sighed as he lifted one of them up.

"Grandma's old recipe," Nathan explained as he brought the butter over to Jeremy.

"You have a grandmother?" Jeremy said surprised.

"Well sort of... she was the woman who adopted my father, but after dad came out as gay she didn't want anything to do with us."

"Just like my family..." Jeremy sighed. "How did you handle that, Josh... your family turning your back on you?"

"I don't know... yes it hurt, but I had Robert, Andrew, Terry, Nathan, and everyone else, so I still had a family."

"I didn't... yes I had a boyfriend at the time but it was nothing serious. I had friends but nothing like you had with Robert. Meeting Jeff saved my sanity. If a straight-laced guy like him could love a freak like me maybe things were not so bad."

"You're not a freak," Jeff said as he wrapped his arms around Jeremy. "I keep telling you that, but you never believe me."

"I know... I just miss having a family... I grew up on a farm in Nebraska, where family is everything."

"I was never that close to my adoptive parents. Whatever family I had died in the car wreck. I've had to rebuild a family one piece at a time. First with Robert at summer camp, then Terry, my wife, and my child, Nathan, finally all the others."

"You are very lucky to have them," Jeff said as he rocked Jeremy in his arms.

"And they are lucky to have you, Josh," Jeremy added.

Josh had talked with the others about inviting Jeff and Jeremy to live with them but the plan had been to ask them on Thanksgiving but seeing the sadness in Jeremy's eyes he felt he needed to ask him now.

"Would you like to be part of our family?"

"What..." Jeremy asked confused as he turned to face Josh.

"Would you like to move in here with us and be part of our family?"

"Let me first say that I would love to but I need to know why in the world you would want to take us in. This place is not secretly a sex club, is it?"

"No... we are a fairly monogamous group." Josh smiled.

"Cause I know that Jeff finds you hot, so if the two of you want to fool around I would not mind."

"Jeremy..." Josh blushed while Jeff tried to look everywhere but at him.

"And Robert is sexy... especially with his new haircut."

"Jeremy... you don't have to sleep with any of us to live here." Josh grinned.

"I don't..." Jeremy said surprised. He had been half sure that Josh's offer had been for him and Jeff to be houseboys.

"No... Jeremy... how many guys do you think I have slept with?"

"A dozen or so?" Jeremy guessed. He gave what he had felt was a low number as he could not picture Josh being slutty.

"Two," Josh said.

"Two... only two? That makes you a virgin. Robert, you lucky bastard, you have yourself a virgin."

"What!" Robert's voice came from the dinning room. He came into the kitchen with a wide grin on his face.

"Robert... I'm your hairstylist. Why didn't you tell me that Josh has only slept with two people?"

"Well if everyone knew that, I would have to worry about a lot more guys hitting on him." Robert grinned as he wrapped his arms around Josh.

"But why, Josh... you are one of the hottest pieces of middle-age meat in town."

"Thanks." Josh blushed not knowing if being referred to as middle-age meat was a compliment or not. "What can I say... the only guys I have ever been in bed with are the two I have been in love with."

"Robert and Andrew... do you still love Andrew?" the gossip queen inside Jeremy had to know.

"I love him but as a person I still care about, not as a lover."

"Every ounce of Josh is now mine." Robert grinned as he hugged Josh from behind.

"Ok..." Jeff said, getting the hint.

"Of course, that does not mean I'm not open to a little sharing," Robert added with a wink of an eye.

"Hey!" Josh protested.

"You're a bottom... right Jeff?" Robert continued, ignoring Josh's protests. Nathan, sensing "grownup talk", left the kitchen with a wide smile on his face.

"Yep!" Jeff grinned.

"Well, I want to teach my Josh how to do it right, but I don't want to use my ass in the process until he is "real" good at it. Want to play the role of teacher?"

"Ummm, Jeremy?" Jeff said as he licked his lips."

"Fine with me, but then I get your ass, Robert?"

"My ass?"

"Yes... If my boyfriend is going to teach your lover how to top, I better teach you how to bottom."

"What is there to learn... you lay there and take it," Robert replied.

"Not if you are an aggressive bottom like Jeff is. By the time I'm finished with you, Josh would not have to move an inch to fuck you completely."

"I don't think I want to know how to do that," Robert replied nervously.

"Well it's too late now... Jeff has already have his "hopes" raised, so to speak.

Robert turned, looking for Jeff and found that he had worked Josh over to the kitchen counter, licking his lips as he grabbed his hard-on through his pants.

Hey hey hey... that's my husband!" Robert protested.

"Not until spring... you've said it yourself," Jeremy snickered. "Josh is a free man. He can have sex with whatever guy he wants."

"Hey Josh..." Jeff said as he moved in closer. "I never told you I had a thing for middle-age guys... all that wisdom and maturity. I wish you still had your gray hair. I found it hot."

"Wait a minute, you're not really going to fall for this," Robert said panicked as he watch Josh give Jeff a once over.

"You know my first time was with a married guy... straight married guys are fun but then you have to deal with all that guilt stuff later. A gay married guy though..." Jeff left it unfinished.

"Come with me..." Josh smiled as he grabbed Jeff by his tie. "And you too, Rob," Josh added just as the kitchen door was closing.

"Woohoo... threesome time!" Robert giggled happily.

"Hey what about me?" Jeremy said feeling left out.

"Nathan, Philip, David... take over the kitchen and help Jeremy out," Josh's voice yelled from the other side of the door.

"Yes dad..." all three boys called out.

All three boys came into the kitchen and went to work as if they had been helping out all along.

"You all called him dad..." Jeremy realized.

"Well yeah... that is because he is my dad." Nathan grinned.

"But you, David...?"

"Well, when not talking to him directly I call him uncle Josh, but when he gives me an order it just feels natural to call him dad. In a way he is the "super" dad of us all," David replied.

"And you, Philip?" Jeremy asked

"Well... I had sort of a crush on him... you know teenage wet fantasy... making out with your baseball coach. But as I came to know Nathan and Josh better I found what I was really looking for was a role model, a father figure, not the sex."

Jeremy let out a deep sigh... "That is how my Jeff feels, but he thinks it has to be sexual."

"What do you mean?" David asked concerned.

Jeremy really wanted to wait till he could talk to Josh about this but he could not keep it in any longer. "Jeff has a thing for older guys. It is a good thing that I'm 31 and he's 25 or he might find me attractive."

"I'm sure that's not true," Nathan said trying to comfort Jeremy.

"Trust me, I've been with Jeff for two years... longer if you consider the other thing."

"The other thing?" Philip asked.

"Never mind... I really need to talk to Josh about this. I've only been here a few minutes and I'm already causing drama," Jeremy said, trying to deflect what was bothering him with humor.

After that, all that filled the kitchen was the sound of chopping, boiling, and the crackling of baking chicken.


Jeff was led upstairs to Josh and Robert's bedroom. It was awkward walking up the stairs with a hard-on, but he made it. Josh smiled the whole way up the stairs, while Robert tagged along, giggling all the way.

As soon as he got into the bedroom he and Robert started stripping, but Josh kept his clothes on just smiling at the two of them.

"You want me to help you undress?" Robert asked as he hopped on one foot to get his pants off.

"No... I'm just wondering why the two of you are stripping." Josh laughed.

"So we can have sex... of course." Robert grinned as he kept on undressing.

"Did I say anything about sex?" Josh said with an evil smile.

"That is what I had in mind," Jeff spoke up feeling the carpet pulled out from under him. He had hoped for his new 'daddy' would fuck him good.

"Nope... I brought you up here to talk."

"Well, can we talk with our clothes off?" Robert begged. He was horny and did not like the idea of having to stuff his hard-on back into his pants.

"Fine," Josh agreed.

"You undress too!" Robert insisted as he tossed his underwear at his lover.

"Ok... so long and Jeff here can keep his attention on something other than my dick."

"I can do that." Jeff smiled.

"Ok..." Josh said warily.

Once they were all naked, Robert jumped onto the bed, while Jeff kept his eyes glued to Josh's chest and abs. "You are hotter than I guessed you were," Jeff sighed.

"That is what we need to talk about," Josh replied as he got into the bed as well. Jeff made to join them, but Josh put up a hand to stop him.

"Let's talk first, snuggle later."

"OK.," Jeff agreed but remained tense.

"Tell me about your first sexual experience."

"It was with my neighbor... I was like 14."

"Was he a man or a boy like you were?"

"A man of course... I find guys my own age boring."

"Have you ever been with a guy your own age?"

"No... but why should that matter," Jeff said getting defensive.

"Tell me about the rest of your sexual experiences."

"Well, I had sex with my neighbor till I got too old for him."

"Too old being?"

"16..."

"How did that make you feel?"

"I don't know..." Jeff replied evasively.

"Used?"

"Yeah, I guess, but I learned a lot from him."

"What happened after that?"

"I seduced my football coach. He fucked me a few times until he got scared."

"After that..."

"After that it was college... I slept with a few professors but I still failed out. I became a call boy for lonely married men. They were always the best... all that pent up sexual energy. That is how I met Jeremy."

"Tell me about him?"

"Well, when he found me in a gay bar he thought he had found a confused, just out of the closet, jock... you see they pay more if they think you're newbie."

"Ok but Jeremy seems to not be your type. He's not married; he is definitely not straight acting... so why the attraction?"

"Because I don't have to act around him. I can be as gay or straight acting as I feel."

"Ok... but do you love him."

"Yes... I do... sort of."

"Sort of?" Josh asked with raised eyebrows.

"I care about him... I mean unlike any of the men that paid me to have sex I have feelings for him."

"Do you still "rent" yourself out?" Robert asked.

"When I need a little extra money and..." Jeff drifted off.

"And?" Josh asked.

"When I need to feel an older man's body against mine."

"Jeff... did you think the neighbor who molested you loved you," Josh said getting to the point of the issue.

"He didn't molest me," Jeff struggled to say.

"He didn't love you either... you said it yourself, you got too old."

"I JUST WANT TO BE LOVED!" Jeff wailed as he fell to the floor crying.

Both Josh and Robert got out of the bed and lifted Jeff onto the bed. The two of them sandwiched themselves around him. It was not long before Jeff wrapped his arms around the back of Josh's neck while he rested his head on Josh's head.

"I just want to be loved," Jeff repeated at a near whisper.

"Jeff... you will never get the love of that neighbor. No matter how many older guys you try to sleep with it will never take away the pain you are feeling."

"Please love me," Jeff whispered back.

"Jeremy loves you."

"I know... but it's not the same."

"Why's that?" Robert asked.

"I can... I can never picture him as my father."

"Jeff... did your father abuse you?" Josh asked.

"No... but he didn't love me. He hated me."

"I'm sorry, Jeff," Josh sighed as he hugged the crying man to him. Josh had played on a hunch. When he had helped the DA investigate a pedophile case, one of the older victims had had the same older guy fetish that Jeff seemed to have. The victim went from one abusive relationship after another always looking for the love and -- more importantly -- the trust that had been broken by his molester. Jeff was a typical case... a neglected child looking for a male role model was easy prey.

Deep down Josh felt that Jeff knew the truth as well. That is why he dated such an opposite in Jeremy, a caring yet campy guy that could never be mistaken as a father figure. The tricky part now was to give Jeff a father figure without it becoming sexual. Josh had to do something fast for while Jeff's crying was subsiding, his hard-on was returning.

"Jeff... are you going to be ok?" Josh asked as he pulled away.

"If you love me I will be," Jeff replied reverting to the child he had been.

"Do you want me to be a parent to you, Jeff?" Josh asked.

"Yes... I want you to be my dad."

"Then I can't sleep with you."

"But..." Jeff protested.

"A father loves his child... but he does not make love to him."

"But I want you to?" Jeff said in a pout.

"No, Jeff... If I'm going to be your father you will have to listen to me. You and I can't have sex."

"Then you don't love me then."

"True... right now I just care about you. In time it might grow into love but it will be the love of a father for a son, which means nonsexual.

"I think I would rather you just fuck me."

"Really..."

"No..." Jeff replied with a deep sigh.

"Does this no sex rule apply to me?" Robert could not help but ask.

"Yes, you too... Jeff is now your son as well, pop."

"Pop?" Robert asked confused.

"Yeah, the kids came up with it. It was getting too confusing with the dad/uncle thing so I'm now dad and you are pop."

"But that makes me feel... old," Robert whined.

"You are the older man after all," Josh chuckled.

"Yeah, yeah..." Robert blew off.

"So Jeff, do you want to stay here for a bit and have me bring Jeremy up to talk to you?"

"No... I would rather be around you, dad, right now."

"Ok...but I'm going downstairs to finish up the pies."

"Can I help, dad?" Jeff asked.

"Sure."

"Thanks, dad."

"You really like saying dad, don't you," Robert chuckled.

"Well yeah... Josh is the first person to offer me the right to call him dad. I usually have to ask my bed partners to let me call them that."

"Ok..." Josh shuddered, worried what he had just gotten himself into. "Let's get going.

******************************************************************* Well folks that wraps up another chapter. The next installment will be coming out next month after my brother's wedding. Sales of The Centurion and The Academy are about to go international starting next month but they can still be found on Amazon. Right now the third book in the series is on it's way to the publisher where it will hopefully survive the reviewing process so that the next book in the series goes into print. I will keep you posted when I learn more. The new Mir series is still up on the yahoo group as are the writings of our new in house author Dorothy for those looking for more excellent stuff to read but you better hurry, if any get published they'll end up taken down from the site so read them while you got the chance. Other than that, I'll be moving soon, as soon as this wedding is over in fact. Won't be going to far but still all the packing is a hassle so don't expect much in the way of new material from me until I'm well moved in and settled down. You all take care and keep on reading and sending in those emails.
