Chapter 8
As soon as Kaden arrived home, he crated Ginger after a quick walk. He had a couple of errands he wanted to run before dinner, and he couldnât bring Ginger. Luckily, she wasnât thirsty, having drunk from a bowl that Quinn kept filling with water.
He had to admit Davidâs kid was cute. He wondered if Emily would have gone along with a surrogate carrying their child, like David and Jason had done with David being the donor.
Quinn was high-spirited and devilish like he remembered how David was in school, and he could see Quinnâs personality mirroring Davidâs.
As he thought of David, he tried to picture how David appeared earlier in the morning when he answered the door. Shirtless, wearing only boxers. David grew up and had filled out nicely with muscles.
Must be all the yoga he does now.
His dick hardened so he turned the warm water to cold. The cold shower cooled him down a little.
He closed his eyes and fantasized about David. He pictured kissing David like he did in their senior year, when they stole kisses behind the bleachers.
Kadenâs eyes fluttered open and sighed. They had held hands secretly in the movie theater off Colonial Drive watching Spider-Man that starred Tobey Maguire. They used to lean into each other, their bodies close while reading or doing homework in either Davidâs home, or Kadenâs.
Kaden winked at David today like he used to when they were teenagers and didnât want to, or couldnât say things out loud, but David reacted coldly.
Guess I canât blame him.
He remembered the first time they made love like it was yesterday.
Kaden sighed. He should have never been a jerk to David that evening at the pool party. Heâd like to blame the whole thing on the alcohol, or Davidâs dad being an ass that morning, or getting his yearbook back from friends, after it had been missing, and reading the homophobic comments about David and him. Maybe things wouldâve turned out different.
Maybe it couldâve been him proposing to David in the middle of the ball field eight years ago. Maybe he wouldnât have married Emily.
Maybe Davidâs dad would have come around and allowed them to be together, if not in the open, at least enough so that David and he could plan their lives together.
So many maybes. Instead he did what his parents expected him to do: go to college, get a degree, marry after college, and start a life.
Except it wasnât a life he had been happy in. Sure, he liked Emily. He practically convinced himself he loved her. And if he were to marry someone other than David, it wouldâve been Emily. But his feelings for Emily were completely different than his feelings about David.
Kaden blamed himself. He blamed the homophobic, self-hating fear that gripped him in high school and college and kept him repressed and in the closet.
That fear was what kept him from having David in his life. After their fight, Kaden still thought about David. He compared every friendship to David.
