TeenDad2: I woke Aaron up because I was so excited lol
TeenDad2: Are you still in Aurora? Can we meet up? Can we meet HIM? omg!
Harlow held back a laugh. TD’s enthusiasm was contagious.
LoveHarley: I’m still in Aurora, yeah
LoveHarley: As for meeting him… idk, he’s kind of shy
Gwynning: You say that as if all of us aren’t totally rounded, entirely boring, levelheaded members of society…
TeenDad2: omg Gwynn
TeenDad2: … okay so I’m probably not most of those things, but I can at least play nice for a few hours, for the sake of Harley’s new boyfriend
TeenDad2: That’s so cute! Harley’s boyfriend!
TeenDad2: Is he cute? I wanna know. Do you have pics??
The glow from Harlow’s phone provided light in the otherwise dark living room, and by it, he saw Simon as he slept on the air mattress. His oversized t-shirt was hiked up his back on one side, showing off a strip of pale skin. His boxer-briefs rode a little lower than they had the night before, no doubt to entice Harlow’s gaze. Harlow’s eyes did linger. He followed the curve of Simon’s ass and reflected back on an hour ago, when he’d watched his dick disappear between Simon’s full cheeks. Arousal stirred all over again, and Harlow had to push the thought aside. It was safer if hedidn’tthink about Simon’s ass, or how many times he’d knotted it while they were in the bathroom together.
LoveHarley: No pics, sorry. He’s short… probably like 5’6” or 5’7”. He’s slender, and nerdy, and quiet.
Gwynning: It’s fortunate he’s quiet. I’m sure that when he’s in the same room with TD, he’ll never get a word in edgewise
TeenDad2: omg Gwynn! Are you conspiring with Knot now? That burned. Haha
Gwynning: Said with love, of course, TD.
xVerity: How old is he?
LoveHarley: Um
Simon’s age wouldn’t matter to his friends. Gwynning’s new groom was substantially younger than he was, and xV had fallen in love with a man more than a decade his senior. While TD was engaged to a man within his age bracket, there wasn’t a judgmental bone in his body. And Knot…
Based on drunken, late-night conversations with Knot following Gwynn’s wedding, Harlow already knew that he preferred younger partners.
No one was going to think differently of him for having feelings for a man in his early twenties, but still, Harlow hesitated.
KnotMyProblem: Harley? He’s legal at least, right?
LoveHarley: Of course he is
LoveHarley: He’s 22
xVerity: He sounds lovely, Harley.
LoveHarley: I think so :)
Simon murmured something in his sleep, then rolled over, dragging the blankets with him. One of his arms dropped off the edge of the air mattress, his knuckles dragging on the floor. Harlow watched him settle, his heart too full and his mind too busy to consider sleep. He hadn’t predicted he’d spend the night with Simon like he had, but now that it had happened, he couldn’t imagine the evening going any other way.
KnotMyProblem: So… I guess this means I’m the last single guy in the Single Dad Support Group.
TeenDad2: You’ll find someone, Knot!
TeenDad2: Do you want us to host like, idk, a speed dating event or something?
KnotMyProblem: Are you serious?
