CHAPTER NINE

WILLIAM HAD another job interview that evening, so Parker got out of work a little early to go pick Nate up from the day care center. The little boy sat strapped into his car seat in the back of Parker's Bentley and filled him in on what had happened during the day.

"And then, we pretended to be fish, and we all swam around like, fsshhhhh." He waved his hand through air. "And then, after that, we sang a song."

"What kind of song?" Parker asked.

"I don't know."

"Oh," he said, chuckling. "Did you have fun?"

Nate nodded.

"Make friends?"

Nate nodded again.

"That's good."

Parker loved talking to Nate. In fact, he was probably the only person in the world who managed not to test his patience. Sure, he could be stubborn and bratty in all the ways a little boy could be, but Parker could tolerate that. He was just a kid, so it was to be expected. Parker was delighted by Nate's naturally inquisitive nature, and the innocence and joy he had about everything. It reminded him of what it was like to be a kid himself and helped him tap into new ideas for his artwork.

If it hadn't been for Nate, Parker probably would've had no interest in ever having kids. Not that it was necessarily on his list of things he had to do, but now he was at least open to the idea. And Kell coming into his life had pushed things along even further...

He was happy with Kell. It was a strange thing to feel for someone who didn't often feel that way, but it was true. It'd only been two days since they'd discovered how they felt about each other, but even in that short amount of time he'd experienced a level of warmth, happiness and excitement that he hadn't felt in a long time. Not even his paintings had been able to bring him those feelings, which was a bit of a shock to realize.

He was hesitant to even think the thought, but... maybe he was in love with him?

Could it be love? The feeling was so much more powerful than the one thing he knew he did love: his painting. It was something strong. Something passionate, like a smoldering ember deep in his heart that was ready to become a bonfire. Put a bit more fuel on it, and it would. Kell was that fuel.

Maybe he and Kell might even someday... have kids?

He laughed to himself. He couldn't believe he was even thinking about something like that. He had so many other things to take care of, how could he even think about having a kid? Especially with a guy he'd only just started seeing. But that's how strong the feelings were. It almost felt normal to be thinking about things like that.

"What's funny?" Nate asked.

"You are," Parker said. "Your face is funny."

"No, it's not!" Nate said, laughing. "Your face is funny!" Parker laughed with him.

Nate was nearing pre-school age and he wanted him to have that experience, but there was no way that he could afford to take care of him on his own.
