Sonny and Ari sat at the kitchen table eating cereal and goofing around. Will couldn't believe the smiling little girl was the same one crying only 10 minutes earlier. Arianna was the most important person in the world to him, and the fact that Sonny was so amazing with her, made him even more attractive to Will. He watched them for a little while longer before his mother pulled him into the living room.
"Are you going to tell me what's going on?" Sami asked folding her arms over her chest. "I mean I can't believe you haven't told me about this sooner."
"There hasn't been much to tell mom. It's all pretty new."
"Pretty new? Will you were in bed together and the way you stare at him, I could see the lov-"
"Shh!" Will said pulling her farther into the living room. "It really is new and I don't want you to scare him away with love talk."
"But you do, I know what love looks like."
"You should, you've been married enough times." Will mumbled under his breath.
"Hey!" Sami scolded
"Sorry, it's just new mom I don't want to jeopardize or scare him away. I've never felt like this about anyone before and I'm already asking so much of him with Ari."
"He doesn't seem to mind" Sami said walking back towards the kitchen smiling at the funny faces Sonny and Ari were making at each other.
"He doesn't now but what happens when Ari is bad, or sick, when he realizes that I'm not always available to do things because I have a kid?"
"It's going to be new for him, and it may be hard and make your relationship difficult at times, but it'll be worth it. You and Ari are incredible people anyone would be lucky to be accepted into your lives and I bet Sonny knows that."
"I hope so. I really like him mom." Will said as a loud laugh came from the kitchen.
"And so does Ari." Sami said smiling.
"Why were you in my daddy's bed?" Ari asked Sonny
"Umm...I-" Sonny started
"Do you love my daddy? Because only married grown ups or people in love should sleep together. That's what Grammi Sami says." Ari asked looking Sonny square in the eye. Sonny was sweating what did he say? He didn't want to over step boundaries and say something Will planned on talking to her about. He hated being put on the spot and it seemed to be happening a lot lately.
"I...uh... I like your daddy very much Ari."
"Are you going to sleep over more? Because that could be so awesome!" Ari said getting excited.
"What's all the excitement about?" Will asked walking into the kitchen.
"Sonny sleeping over, it's going to be so much fun! He can sleepover all the time!"
"Sweetheart I'm glad your ok with Sonny sleeping over but it won't be all the time. He has his own house."
"But he could just move in here."
"We have to get you to school. We can talk more about this later." Will said grabbing Ari's backpack off the table, glancing nervously at Sonny making sure he wasn't scared away. He had a feeling that would be another insecurity of his, scaring Sonny away. He would definitely need to work on that fear.
"I have to go the bathroom first!" Ari yelled racing down the hall.
"Sorry about that." Will laughed nervously.
"It's fine. Sweet actually, you hear all these stories about kids not liking who their parents are dating. I'm lucky she likes me so much."
"Well that's because you're so likeable." Will said leaning into a kiss. It was suppose to be a quick peck but when Sonny's hands found their way around Will's waist, he couldn't help but deepen it moaning into Sonny's mouth, his hands finding their way into Sonny's hair as he opened his mouth granting Sonny's tongue entrance. Sonny's hands began kneading Wills ass...
"Daddy! Come on! Stop kissing Sonny and let's go!" Ari yelled from the doorway.
Will pulled away quickly and Sonny laughed smirking at him.
"What are you doing after you drop her off?"
"I'll probably grab something to eat before my meeting at the school."
"Come to the coffee house."
"Ok" Will quickly agreed pecking Sonny one last time before he turned to leave. Sonny noticed Ari already at the door not paying them attention so he slapped Will on the ass, causing Will to yell out in surprise, his face turning bright red when Ari turned around eyeing him up and down.
"Daddy! What happened? Are you ok?" She asked
Will glared at Sonny who was trying hard not to laugh. "I thought I saw a bug." Will lied.
"How come you and Sonny were naked?" Ari asked from the backseat of the car.
Will didn't know how to answer that question so he just stared at his daughter in the rearview mirror, opening and closing his mouth several times, before he finally just asked "What?"
"You had a sleepover but didn't wear any pajamas."
"Yes we did, we were just under the covers."
"You didn't have shirts on."
"Well uh, that's because it was hot last night."
"Oh. Next time you should put the fan on."
"Thanks princess, I will."
"My daddy has a boyfriend!" Ari yelled the second they walked into her classroom. Will buried his face his in hand, he should have known this was going to happen soon. Ari loved to tell everyone, everything.
"That's really nice, Ari." Miss Jensen said smiling at his daughter. "I'm happy for you Mr. Horton."
Will smiled at her awkwardly and couldn't help but noticed some of the other parents giving him disgusted looks. He really hoped no one said anything to Ari today she had been through enough. He bent down next to her and gave her a hug and kiss, telling her he loved her before he headed out to meet Sonny before his meeting with the principal.
"So what's this meeting about anyway?"Sonny asked as he sat down next to nervous Will at Common Grounds.
"The other day when Ari was in trouble the principal was saying some really bigoted things and basically saying it was my fault everything happened. That because I'm gay, people saying things to my daughter or my daughter acting out should be expected."
"The principal said this?" Sonny asked, getting angry
Will nodded "I don't think someone with those thoughts should be in charge of a school. Having a person of authority treating children differently just because their family doesn't look like his, is not ok with me."
"No, it's not right, something needs to be done. So who all is coming this meeting?" Sonny asked
"I tried to get the superintendent, but he couldn't come so just the principal, vice principal and guidance counselor. I just hope something is done. Ari loves her teacher and friends but if something doesn't change I think I'm going to have to send her to another school."
"You could always get some parents together and sign a petition asking for his resignation or to go through some type of training, or something."
"I don't know many parents just the ones in Ari's class and probably only 3 of them would be behind me."
"You don't know that."
"Ari yelled that I had a boyfriend when she walked into class today and you should have seen the looks some of the parents gave me."
"Screw them."
"You know how to make me feel better."Will laughed at that and leaned over to kiss Sonny. "I have to get going, wish me luck"
"It'll be fine baby." Sonny said leaning over and kissing him again.
When Will left the coffee house, Sonny took out his phone, he was going to help his boyfriend and his Uncle Vic was going to help.
So it's been forever! I'm sorry, a lot has been going on in life, and honestly I didn't know what to write or where to go with this. I think I have some ideas now and hopefully there won't be a long wait between the next update. I'll try to get it out soon! Thanks so much to everyone who stuck with me and is still reading, reviewing it. :)
