Justin and Lance both stayed for dinner and the group had a great time telling stories about the past and laughing a lot. Lance didn�t think he�d ever had this much fun in his life. Justin was thinking about the same thing. Josh was so excited that Lance and Leah got along. He was hoping that his relationship with Lance would last a long time, so he was really happy that Lance and Leah seemed so comfortable around each other. And Justin was just like a son to him. He was a great young man, and he was good for Leah. He loved to see Leah so happy like she had been the past few weeks.

After dinner, Justin and Lance both decided to go home.

�My mom�s going to think I abandoned her,� Justin informed the group. �Do you want to hang out tomorrow, though, Leah?�

�Sure,� Leah agreed, standing up from the table and walking Justin to the door.

�Bye Justin!� Josh and Lance both yelled from their seats at the table.

�Bye!� Justin responded. He stopped when he got to the door. �I had a great time today,� he told Leah before blushing. �That sounded like a line from a movie.�

Leah smiled at his embarrassment; she thought it was cute. �It�s ok. I had a good time too,� she assured him, leaning up to give him a sweet kiss on the lips.

�Goodnight,� Justin whispered, opening the door.

�Night,� Leah replied, waving to him as he walked to his car. She wandered back into the dining room to help clear the dishes and Lance and Josh were gone. �Wonder where they went,� she thought to herself. She shrugged, grabbing some of their dishes to bring to the kitchen.

She walked into the kitchen and turned right back around giggling. Her father and Lance were engaged in a kiss. She put the dishes back on the table and made her way up to her room, wanting to give them some privacy. She and Justin had already interrupted them once earlier that day. She flopped down on her bed and sighed as she thought of Justin.

Josh pulled away as he heard a noise coming from the dining room. �I think we�ve been caught again,� he whispered, leaning his forehead against Lance�s as they listened to Leah giggling in the next room.

�We just don�t have good timing, huh?� Lance asked, amused but frustrated at the same time.

�Yeah,� Josh replied, sighing.

�Maybe next time we should go to my apartment. There�s no one there to interrupt us,� Lance suggested.

�Sounds like a plan,� Josh responded, a smile on his face. He stopped talking and listened to see if he could hear Leah anymore. �Hey, maybe she decided to leave us alone this time.�

�How considerate of her,� Lance said, pushing Josh up against the counter and kissing him deeply.

�Mmmm,� Josh moaned as they pulled away. �I like when you get all forceful like that. It�s hot.�

Lance blushed. �I can do it again if you�d like,� he replied, smiling shyly.

�Please do,� Josh responded, almost shrieking as he was suddenly lifted into the air and set down on the counter. Then Lance�s lips were attacking his neck. Josh sighed as Lance sucked on the skin, making his way back up to Josh�s lips. Lance licked across Josh�s lips until he opened them wider, letting Lance�s tongue slip between them.

Lance�s hands were rested on his thighs and Josh�s were moving through Lance�s soft blonde locks. Lance pulled back slightly for a breather and Josh gave him a surprised look. �I never wouldn�t pinned you as the aggressive type, Lance,� he said, breathing hard.

�Well, you learned something today then, didn�t you?� Lance asked running his hands up and down Josh�s thighs.

Josh put his hands over Lance�s and held them in place. �I just wanted to let you know that since I met you a few weeks ago, my life has gotten so much better. I now have something to look forward to each day. And I love spending time with you,� Josh confessed.

�I feel the same way, Josh, I really do. I can�t even remember what I used to do before I met you,� Lance admitted, smiling softly.

�Is that a good thing?� Josh asked.

�I�d like to think so,� Lance replied, bringing Josh�s hands up to his mouth and kissing them lightly.

�Ok,� Josh agreed, smiling at how sweet Lance was.

�Maybe we should clean up the kitchen now,� Lance suggested, wanting to continue what they were doing, but not sure if Josh felt the same way.

�Yeah, Leah could be in the other room, we wouldn�t want to freak her out or anything,� Josh whispered, leaning in to kiss Lance once more before hopping off the counter.

�Yeah, that wouldn�t be too good, she�d be sorry she even set us up,� Lance replied, laughing a little.

Josh laughed along with Lance as they cleared the dishes and began to wash them. �I don�t think I�ve ever had this much fun washing dishes,� Josh told Lance, smiling over at him.

�Me either,� Lance responded.

�We should do this more often,� Josh said.

�Yeah,� Lance agreed, drying the last dish.

�And we�re done,� Josh stated, wishing that Lance didn�t have to leave.

�Well, maybe I should get going now, don�t want to wear out my welcome,� Lance told Josh, sighing.

�Never,� Josh replied, �you�re welcome here anytime, I mean that Lance.�

�Ok,� Lance said with a smile.

�Call me tomorrow morning so we can plan something?� Josh suggested.

�Sure,� Lance agreed, �I have to work in the afternoon, but we could have dinner at my place and then watch a movie or, something.�

�Sounds great,� Josh told him, walking him to the front door.

�Well, I guess I�ll see you tomorrow then,� Lance said quietly.

�Yeah,� Josh replied. He met Lance half way and they shared a sweet kiss before Lance pulled back.

�If I don�t leave now, I probably never will,� he told Josh, laughing.

Josh smiled back, waving. �That wouldn�t be so bad, would it?� Josh asked himself as he shut the front door.
