Daddy’s Little Dreamer (The Lactin Brotherhood)

Chapter 13

13

“Daddy, Daddy, Daddy.” The familiar chant came from me in a needy voice. “Please.”

It ached to wait. The pressure was nearly unbearable and only Daddy could make it all better when he let me come. But I loved the control, handing it all over to him was perfect. Like I was finally living my dream.

“I love to watch you come undone and know I’m the only one who can put you back together.”

“Me too, Daddy.”

Quicker, shorter thrusts as Daddy pounded away. It wouldn’t be long now for him either. I loved how I learned Daddy’s ways and how his body reacted when we made love. He never came before I did, always putting me first. His face was so full of love as he watched me, and I him.

“Come, Little Bee. Come for Daddy.”

My body reacted to his soft command. I latched onto his nipple and as soon as I sucked, I felt Daddy throb inside me, filling me with his come and claiming what was his.

Me.

Heart, mind, body, and soul.

There would never be another man for me.

Daddy gently rolled us over and let me continue to nurse until I drifted off to sleep.

“Daddy, you promised a picnic in our new yard today?”

Another weekend came and went and as much as I loved my mother it broke my heart to leave Daddy on Sunday night. Somehow I managed to sleep better with him; my brain was not as busy and more settled.

“Sweet Bee, why is it you can’t let Daddy sleep in?”

“’Cause, it’s our last day together.”

Daddy sighed. I knew he wanted me here with him and it was me dragging his feet, not him. I just dreaded having that conversation with Mom and then leaving her alone.

“My love, have you ever thought that maybe your mom might be ready for a bit of alone time.”

I sat back on the bed, absorbing his words. “Huh, no, I hadn’t.”

“She’s always welcome over here anytime, you know that. Hell, I’d offer to give her a key but have a slight fear she may burst in at the wrong time. If you know what I mean.” Daddy wiggled his brows.

“Sexy times, huh, Daddy.”

“Exactly. And while I know she’s seen your naked ass before, I’m sure it hasn’t been often since you became a big boy. Has it?”

“Not at all since I turned like twelve or thirteen.”

“And if she walks in when you’re favorite toy is awake. That may send her screaming.”

I crossed my arms and huffed. “That’s not my favorite toy, Daddy.” Though it was fun to play with, but I purposely left that off.

“Could’ve fooled me.” Daddy winked. “But, back to the first order of business. It’s still early for our picnic. How about we start with breakfast first?”

“K, Daddy. Can we have waffles with bacon smiley faces?”

“Absolutely. Let’s get dressed first.”

“Ohhhh! You used raspberry for the eyeballs, Daddy.”

“Yes, yes, I’m a very cleaver Daddy indeed. Know what else?”

“What?”

“You didn’t notice any raspberries on the plant yesterday when you planted it, did you?”

“Hmm? Nope.”

“I plucked them off before you planted it so we could eat them before the birds did.”

“Naughty birds. They can’t have my raspberries.”

“Then we may want to consider putting wire fencing around them so only the bees and ladybugs can get to them.”

“You’re so smart. That’s why you’re the Daddy.”

“That’s the whole reason, huh?” Daddy shook his head and chuckled. “I hope there’s more than one reason.”

“A million, gazillion, catrillion reasons why. Brandon thinks he has the best daddy but really I do.”

“Yes, but we don’t want to hurt his or Daddy Adam’s feelings, so it’ll be our secret. Deal?”

“Deal, Daddy.” I finished my nummy breakfast and put my dishes in the dishwasher.

“Sweet Bee, why don’t you go play while Daddy gets our laundry washed and does some house stuff.”

“Okay, Daddy.”

I didn’t have anything to pack to go home except for Bumble and Humble. I had clothes that stayed at Daddy’s and clothes at Mom’s for during the week so there wasn’t much for me to do other than play. I even had special books here that Daddy read to me at night.

I was one lucky boy.

When I was done playing cars, I cleaned them up and grabbed my coloring books and pencils and turned on cartoons.

“Here Bumble and Humble,” I sat them on the couch next to each other. “You can watch from here.”

With everyone situated, I got to work making a new picture for Daddy’s fridge. I was never bored at Daddy’s. My mind was always occupied here. I had toys and crafts, and a really cool fidget spinner and popper thingies. Now I had my backyard jungle gym to run and play in. Daddy really did think of everything.

“Okay, Little Bee. Time to go outside.”

“Here, Daddy.”

“To Daddy with all my love, your Little Bee.” He read what I wrote on it. “You did so well coloring in the farmer’s scare crow. Thank you, I love it.” He tacked it up with magnets.

“There’s no more space, Daddy.” That made me sad. I loved making pictures for Daddy.

“We’ll just rotate them. New on top of old. How’s that sound? Then we can just flip the pages and see the surprises beneath them.”

“I like that. You’re so smart, Daddy.”

When I stepped outside it was like I was in a whole new world.

“Whoa, Daddy. When did you do all this?” There were fairy lights strung across poles outlining the giant sandbox and along the porch and planting area.

“While you played. They’re solar so they’re charging now but should be on tonight.”

I sighed. “I won’t be here tonight.”

“You’ll see them next week and tonight when we facetime I’ll come outside so you can see them.”

“Thank you, Daddy. I love them. You got a little diggy-dig-dig set and a bucket for me.” I ran over to the sandbox and started digging away.

“If you fill the bucket with water and use the plastic castle pieces, you can build stuff with sand.”

“I love that.” I ran over to the hose and filled up the bucket and started building. Daddy walked around, taking pictures of everything while I got to work.

“This is gonna look so amazing all lit up at night.”

“Yes and now next weekend you’ll be able to play out here after the sun goes down.”

“Can we have dinner outside too?”

“Of course we can. Speaking of food, let me get our lunch going.”

By the time Daddy came back and laid out our picnic blankie, I’d made four different sized castles. “Look, Daddy.”

“I am, those are wonderful. Such a good boy for your Daddy. You played while I did grown-up stuff. I bet you’re hungry. You’ve been hard at it all morning.”

“Yes, my tummy is grumbly.”

“Well then, let’s fill it up.”

Daddy made these cute little sandwiches he called finger sammies. One had ham and cheese, another was cucumber. “Sneaky Daddy, slipping in veggies.”

“Just give it a bite, Little Bee, you may enjoy it.”

For Daddy, I guessed I’d try…

“Little Bee, you only got the tip of the corner of bread in that bite.”

“Ugh.”

“Don’t you huff at your Daddy. You don’t have to eat it if you don’t like it. I’m only asking that you take one bite and try it. Please.”

“Is that ranch dressing, Daddy?”

“It is. What do you think?”

I took another bite. Should I tell him it was nummy? No, he’d make me eat more veggies, but this was yum-yum-yummy.

“Given you’ve now taken two bites but refuse to say anything, I choose to take that as a win.”

I’d never tell, hee-hee.

“Look, Daddy, Look.” I ran over to the flowerpot. “Shoot, I scared the pretty butterfly.”

“Indeed, you did. I know you’re excited for all your new insect friends, but they don’t know you’re not going to hurt them. It’s best to keep a safe distance and not rattle them.”

“I know. I just got excited and forgot.” I hoped it came back, then I could apologize.

“Let’s get cleaned up and get you home.”

It wasn’t forever but every time I left it sure did feel like it.

“Come on, Bumble.” I decided to hold him and Humble instead of putting them in my backpack. “Time to go home.”

“My Little Bee, I don’t like it when you’re sad.”

“I know, Daddy, I just hate leaving you.”

“I don’t like it either and you know I’m ready for us to live together when you are, but I refuse to rush you. But yes, this is very hard for me as well. When you’re ready, I’ll be waiting.”

“Thank you, Daddy.” I had already made up my mind today to talk to mom about it.

“Huh, your mom’s car isn’t here.” Daddy parked in an empty space beside our building. “Let me get you inside.”

After Daddy left I looked around for a note from Mom but found none. I double checked my phone for a text but nothing. It wasn’t like her to not let me know where she was.

Me: Hey Mom, are you picking up dinner?

Mom: Hi honey, are you home?

Me: I am.

Mom: Sorry, you’re on your own for dinner tonight. I’ll be home later. Love you.

Had I just entered an alternate universe?

I did some laundry and hunted around in the cupboards for something to make but nothing sounded good. It was so much easier when Daddy picked and made it. Less choices worked best for me. In the end, I ordered Chinese delivery with plenty for Mom and me to take for lunch tomorrow.

Tummy full, laundry done, into the shower I went but when I came out Mom still wasn’t home, and she hadn’t texted again. I was getting kind of nervous. I mean, she was a grown up and all but this was so out of character.

Bumble and I got ready for bed but had time to pop out onto the fire escape for a quick shoutout to the stars. I had so much to be thankful for and it felt like I owed it all to them. It was a gorgeous, clear sky tonight. I took a couple of pictures and texted them to Daddy.

“I thought I’d find you out here.”

“Mom.” I jumped and almost dropped my phone. “You scared me half to death.”

“Sorry, my love. What are you wishing for tonight? I thought you got your wish months ago.”

“Just saying thanks again and taking pictures of the stars.” Was she gonna tell me where she was or did I have to ask?

“You um, you miss Jayger when you’re away from him, don’t you?”

“I do. So much my heart and my stomach hurt. Is that weird?”

“No sweetheart, that’s love. I’ve been selfish keeping you to myself. Foolishly, I always figured it would be the two of us against the world forever. How silly was that?”

“Not silly at all, Mom. It has always been us, but I guess at some point I grew up and we both forgot about that. Jayger and I um, we want to move in together at his house.” How would she take that? Breaking my mother’s heart would absolutely gut me.

“I figured that was coming soon, especially after you sent me the pictures of the back yard. You’ve made a great home together and I can’t wait to see it in person. I’ve um, I’ve got some news myself.” She played with the hem of her shirt, twisting it around. “I’ve started seeing someone myself.”

“What? When? Who? How did this happen?”

She held her hands up and laughed. “I’m just as surprised by this as you are. No one ever really caught my eye for more than, well, you know, and even that was a million years ago. I figured, well, maybe I’m asexual but dismissed that idea as soon as it came. Leaning more towards demisexual. Just never found someone I had a strong enough connection with before now.”

“So, tell me all about him.” It was girl talk time and dang it if I didn’t miss this with Mom.

“Her.”

“What? Way to go, Mom!” I high fived her and she actually giggled. It was so freaking cute.

“Yeah, a mom of one of my students. We just, you know, hit it off. I mean, nothing has happened sex wise.” Yeah, don’t need those deets. “But we talk all the time. I guess I’m finally understanding a bit of what you’re feeling because when we don’t talk or see each other I’m having withdrawals.”

“Ooohhhh, Mom’s got it bad. Go Mom!”

“Yeah, yeah, yeah. Don’t you have a story time coming from your Daddy?” She winked.

“I do.” She cracked up like I had floaty hearts around my head. “Seriously, Mom, I’m so freaking happy for you. No one deserves to find love more than you.”

“And no one deserves to move in with their boyfriend more than you. Look, Trevor, I know you worry about me, but I’m gonna be okay, I promise.” She gave me a huge hug right as my phone rang.

“Mom’s got a girlfriend. Mom’s got a girlfriend,” I sang into the facetime call.

Mom stood behind me waving at Daddy. “Jayger, he’s all yours. Good luck!”

Daddy found that far too funny.

“Hey, no fair.” I mock pouted, but my two favorite people were happy, so I’d take one for the team.
