Michael trotted up the stairs quickly and climbed back into bed, snuggling up against Ben’s bare back. Hunter’s words were still in his head, the smile remaining on his lips. “Ben….?” No response. He tried again, a bit louder. “Ben?” “Mmmmm……” Ben turned over, his eyes slowly coming into focus. “Hunter’s home” “You woke me to tell me that?” Ben had a bemused look on his face. “Sorry….but you do know what he said!” “I would imagine he had his usual excuses!” “Actually he didn’t.” “Really! So why do you have that grin on your face?” “He called me Dad!”
Ben sat up, gazing down at Michael. “He did?” “Yeah. Do you think he meant it?” “Why would you think he wouldn’t ?” A curious look crossed Ben’s face. “I don’t know. It was just out of the blue.” “And of course as soon as he said it…you forgot you were mad at him didn’t you?” “That little shit. Do you think that’s why he said it?” Ben laughed and pulled Michael into his arms. “No baby….I know he meant it, but as usual he always knows exactly what to say!” Michael mulled that over, another thought coming to him.
