At Long Last

he kissed his knuckles.
    "What about your parents?"
    Preston grinned. "Not yet. One step at a time, Scotty. I will. I'm just not ready for that."
    "Okay. I can't believe you told your kids."
    "It wasn't easy," he admitted. "But I had a talk with Jack and he got me really thinking. I have to tell you there might be times when I trip up."
    Scotty nodded. "I'm not very patient, Pres. I know I should have given you more time or space or something. I was pushing too hard."
    "If you gave me more time or space I might never have done anything." Preston stood up and sat next to Scott on the bed. "Scotty, move in with me."
    The other man bit his lip and immediately started shaking his head. "It's too soon. Isn't it? I mean you didn't even want to come out and now you want me to live with you?"
    "Scotty," Preston said, his gut twisting. "I want you with me. I've always liked it when you stayed over. Do you really want to stay with Jack and Wendy when you know you'll move in with me anyway? And your painting's already there." He grinned to lighten it, but his heart raced, hope for the future filling him.
    Scotty leaned over and kissed him. "Are you sure?"
    "Yes. Very sure."
    "It still seems really soon."
    "Stop arguing and just say you will."
    His lover gave him a beautiful tender smile. "All right, yes, I will."
    Preston pulled Scotty against him and kissed him thoroughly. "Thank you. I need you with me, Scotty. I think I'm going to need your strength a lot."
    "You've got it."
    "About your dad?"
    Scotty grimaced. "What about him?"
    "I know he's an ass, but he is your dad, and I think Jack has already reamed him for how he treated you."
    "I know he's my dad. And I'll forgive him eventually. It's just going to take some time," Scotty said, sighing a little. "I'm not going back to work there though. I'll find something else."
    Preston nodded. "Okay. I'll give you a recommendation."
    "Hey, whatever happened with Mrs. Windham's grandson?"
    Preston smiled. "We took a plea. Something else I owe you for. I love you."
    Scotty shook in his arms. "I don't think I'm going to ever grow tired of hearing that. Can you say it a lot?"
    He laughed and kissed his lover again. "Yeah, I think I can manage that."
    "I love you, too. So much."
    They spent several breathless moments kissing, their tongues tangling. Preston knew he was growing hard again.
    "Can we get out of here now? I want to make love to you, but I've had enough of motel sex for a while, I think."
    Scott laughed. "Told you it was overrated. Yes, I'm ready to leave."
    "Great, let's go home."
