Ben
Jon was as excited as he was nervous. Yes, Ben had faith in him, but this was likely to be one of the most important discussions of his life and unlike most important discussions he had, he couldn't just put his lawyer face on and do it. This was the rest of his life and Ben's life and everything and yes, he wanted that. More than anything he wanted that, but it was still such a large thing that it felt monstrously huge.

The kitchen was clean and he'd gotten groceries for Ben. At the table were pens and ink and parchment. He was as ready as he'd get. Jon had actually dressed down though and was in trousers and shirt sleeves.

	Ben knocked on the door, smiling down at Jon's neighbor, who looked shocked at Ben alone. He mouthed to her "Contract" and she immediately beamed at him before going into her own house. Ben was in work clothes, so loose trousers and a slightly singed shirt under his jacket. (Reply to this) (Thread)

	Jon liked the not sneaking, which granted had been fun, but still. He opened the door, let Ben in, closed it and immediately pushed Ben back into the door and kissed him. (Reply to this) (Parent) (Thread)

	Ben laughed against Jon's mouth, before kissing back, wrapping his arms around the other man. (Reply to this) (Parent) (Thread)

	Jon hugged him tightly then kissed his forehead. "Hmm. As much as I would rather do this, the sooner we eat and do our contract, the sooner I can get you naked and into bed." (Reply to this) (Parent) (Thread)

	"We can talk while I cook," he slipped out of Jon's hold, smiling. "And you can write. We'll leave the sexual negotiation for last." (Reply to this) (Parent) (Thread)

	"Sounds like a plan." Jon led Ben into the kitchen then got himself some paper and a pen and ink and sat at the small table in the corner. (Reply to this) (Parent) (Thread)

	Ben started going through Jon's groceries, then started a pot of water boiling. "What do you want to discuss first?" (Reply to this) (Parent) (Thread)

	jonstanton 2008-10-16 05:40 pm UTC (link)
	"Children," Jon answered easily. "I know you want them. How soon would you like to try and how would you like to?" (Reply to this) (Parent) (Thread)

	simoneaux 2008-10-16 05:49 pm UTC (link)
	"Two years? And." He tilted his head, "Adoption, I think. My blood's not that important to me and you said you're unable to perform so." He shrugged. (Reply to this) (Parent) (Thread)

	Jon made a few notes on the paper then looked up at him, "We can do it sooner if you'd like, but that sounds good. How many children would you like?" (Reply to this) (Parent) (Thread)

	simoneaux 2008-10-16 06:13 pm UTC (link)
	"Three," he said without hestitation. "Fairly close together." (Reply to this) (Parent) (Thread)

	jonstanton 2008-10-16 06:17 pm UTC (link)
	A few more notes were added, "Do you have any preference on age at adoption?" (Reply to this) (Parent) (Thread)

	simoneaux 2008-10-16 06:17 pm UTC (link)
	He shook his head, "What ages do you want?" (Reply to this) (Parent) (Thread)

	"I'd like at least one to be a newborn if possible," Jon admitted after a moment. (Reply to this) (Parent) (Thread)

	simoneaux 2008-10-16 06:47 pm UTC (link)
	Ben smiled at him, wrist deep in a turkey, "We can do that." (Reply to this) (Parent) (Thread)

	"Good. Thank you," he wrote that down. "Now the hard one...internal division of duties? I'm assuming you want the cooking?" (Reply to this) (Parent) (Thread)

	simoneaux 2008-10-17 10:05 pm UTC (link)
	"I want cooking. I think we'd best leaving the majority of cleaning to you- I think you're neater. I'll take care of any pets and child cleaning." (Reply to this) (Parent) (Thread)

	"Aah...good point. Pets?" (Reply to this) (Parent) (Thread)

	simoneaux 2008-10-19 08:11 am UTC (link)
	"I like dogs," he admitted sheepishly, "Children should have a dog." (Reply to this) (Parent) (Thread)

	jonstanton 2008-10-19 11:22 am UTC (link)
	"I wouldn't mind a dog or even a couple. My father always had coon hounds." Jon paused for a moment, just watching Ben and smiling. "Not much for cats though." (Reply to this) (Parent) (Thread)

	simoneaux 2008-10-19 11:36 am UTC (link)
	He nodded, finishing the meat and starting with potatoes. "Agreed then." (Reply to this) (Parent) (Thread)

	jonstanton 2008-10-19 11:39 am UTC (link)
	Jon set his pen down and walked over to Ben, slipping his arms around his betrothed and kissing the side of his neck. "So that covers household duties and children and pets. What else shall we discuss?" (Reply to this) (Parent) (Thread)

	simoneaux 2008-10-19 11:53 am UTC (link)
	"Sex and finances," he turned his head a little to kiss Jon's jaw. (Reply to this) (Parent) (Thread)

	jonstanton 2008-10-19 12:35 pm UTC (link)
	"Finances," Jon agreed. "I can manage them unless you've got strenuous objections to that." He rested his chin on Ben's shoulder. (Reply to this) (Parent) (Thread)

	"I do," he said with a smile, then paused, and shook his head. "No, I mean more. I want to contribute equally to the household. I.. Do want to have my own money, but I also want to contribute so that it's our home." (Reply to this) (Parent) (Thread)
