Kevin stood on his heels turned in a circle and looked around at the guests who attended his mother's weeding. The whole ceremony had been perfect. Freya and George were married in the same church Kevin's father had married his mother, but no one told George until after the 'I Do's'. The decorations were worth bragging about for the next four years and Freya rocked her Oleg Cassini dress.
George had chosen Kevin as his best man while Freya chose Ben as her Maid of Honor. Much to everyone's amusement, Kevin covered his eyes when the happy couple kissed. The only let down was that George's ex-wife wouldn't let his son attend (jealous bitch).
The reception is where things got wild. The jell-o shots were passed around and Kevin did the unthinkable and stole George's first dance (he tried to moon him, too, but his mother stopped him).
Kevin prided himself for being a great drinker, but after he stopped counting, things had started to sway. Sitting himself next to Ben, Kevin slouched and rested his heavy head on Ben's shoulder while he watched the newlyweds dance.
"I'm glad he got a hotel for the weekend," Kevin yawned. "I don't want to hear their nightly activities."
Ben rested his head on top of Kevin's
"Want me to stay with you?" he asked as he watched the giggling clusters of Freya's and George's co-workers. "You won't be lonely."
"And your parents?" Kevin put his hand on Ben's knee. "What will they say?"
"We're just two guys having guy time." Ben said as Kevin grabbed himself another jell-o shot. "What's so wrong with that?"
Kevin shrugged. "You're my boyfriend, not just my guy friend."
Ben put his hand on Kevin's arm "All the same to them."
Kevin looked Ben in the eye. "Not to me. We should tell them, while I still have this courage."
Ben grinned and leaned forward to rest his elbows on the table. "Scared of my parents?"
Kevin laughed, "Maybe. Dads are different from moms. What if he doesn't want us together?"
"I'm a big boy." Ben moved Kevin's hair out of his face. "I can make my own choices."
Kevin stood and swayed a little "You're right, get my keys! We're going to wonderland!"
Ben stood as Kevin stumbled against the table, "I think I'll drive" Ben pulled Kevin against him and took his keys out his coat pocket. "I like being alive."
"I'm not drunk." Kevin kissed Ben's nose, "just light headed."
Ben pushed Kevin away from their table and towards his mother. "Go say bye."
Kevin nodded and grinned, "Mother dearest!" he called out and opened his arms to the bride.
Freya giggled and twirled into her son's arms, "Yes, my lovely?"
Kevin kissed his mother's forehead, "We're going. Don't stay out too long. As soon as your honeymoon's over, I'm putting you back to work." Kevin shrugged. "I have these delusions about going to college."
Freya grinned "Of course, your highness - your wish is my command."
"I love ya', ma."
"I love you, too, Kevin."
Nodding to George, Kevin gave away his mother away to him for the third time that night. When he wandered out to the parking lot, he found Ben knelt beside his car looking beneath it. (Insert poor joke) "What's up, baby?"
Ben raised his head up grinning. "There's a kitten under the car."
Kevin knelt besides Ben. "A-and?"
Ben smiled and shushed Kevin. "I'm going to get it."
Kevin sighed and watched Ben get on his stomach and reach under his ride. "Why?" he asked in a low voice conscious of the kitten.
"Well," Ben wiggled farther under the car before reemerging with a little black tuff of fur in the palm of his hand, "I feel inspired." He used a finger to coax the little kitten into looking up at him. "Things are looking good for us." Ben held the meowing creature up for Kevin to get a better look. "Maybe he could be our baby."

Kevin tapped his fingers against his knees as Ben pulled into his driveway. They didn't exit the vehicle immediately as Ben was humming along to some nameless band. The new addition to the family bounced from one of Ben's legs to the other.
When the song finished, Ben smiled and gathered the 'baby' in his arms. "Okay, let's go!"
Kevin laughed at Ben's enthusiasm, "Yeah."
Ben hopped out first and skipped to the front door with Kevin following at a slower pace, "Come on Kev', the baby's getting restless." Ben said when the little kitten started to squirm in his hands.
"All that liquid courage I had is wearing off, babe; maybe we should do this later." Kevin mumbled as Ben back-tracked to pull him forward.
"Come on, Kev," Ben grinned, "sometimes you just have to jump."
Kevin watched as Ben unlocked the door to his demise. "Just jump" he chanted when he saw Ben's parents Carl and Sandra walk into the living room to greet them.
"Hey, boys, how was the wedding?" Sandra asked them with a bright smile on her face.
Kevin grinned weakly, "Great, it's a shame you weren't able to attend."
Mrs. T smiled softly, "That's lovely; I can't wait to hear all about it."
"Give the couple our regards," Carl said as he walked over to the boys and placed a hand on Kevin's shoulders, "and thanks for bringing Ben back as well."
Ben looked at Kevin out the corner of his eyes, "Actually, dad, we should talk."
"Tonight?" Sandra looked her son up and down. "Did something happen? Are you hurt? Did-"
"No, mom, this is about another matter." Ben jerked back when the forgotten kitten bit one of his thumbs, "maybe we should sit."
"Ben," Carl started, "we talked about strays" he said as Ben let his new baby run free in the living room.
"I know, dad, Kevin's taking him." Ben said as he sat on one of their white pleather couches.
"I am?" Kevin sat next to his boyfriend.
"Then what's this all about, dear?" Sandra sat on the open side of Ben and placed her hands over his.
"Well, with all that has happened, I thought I'd start anew and stop keeping secrets from you. Me and Kevin aren't just friends were really, really close friends."
"Really close?" Sandra turned her gaze from Ben to Kevin making the older teen blush, "oh, OH!"
Ben gave his mother a toothy smile and then turned to his father. The man had turned his gaze away from them but was visibly tense, "dad?"
Carl sighed, "Not tonight, Ben." He said as he shook his head and left the room.
"So, I guess that's a 'no' to our sleep over." Kevin said flatly as he watched his new pet scamper under the Tennyson coffee table.
"Yeah," Ben squeezed his mother's hands, "I guess so…"
Sandra sighed and gave the boys a sad smile, "Just give him some time, he'll come around."
Kevin collected his new pet as Sandra left them alone to chase after her husband. "I love ya' Ben."
Ben stood and fiddled with the hem of his dress shirt, "I know, I love you, too, more than anything."
Kevin moved to Ben's side and knocked shoulders with him, "Give me a kiss goodnight."
Ben grinned, "I should be telling you that." he said as he stood on his toes looking up at Kevin through his eye lashes.
Kevin smirked and kissed Ben chastely, "You better call tomorrow."
"And every day after." Ben said, sealing his promise with a kiss on Kevin's lips.
