Nathan almost wished Claire would stay older for good. Nobody would recognize her and he could be affectionate with her in public. He sighed in pleasure at the feel of her lips on his chest, her hands on his back. Curling her closer into his body, he hugged her to him, happy to be holding her.
"I never thought I'd like hearing you call me Daddy. It's what the boys called me, and coming from you it didn't seem like it would be right. But oh God, it felt so hot hearing you call out Daddy."
Kissing the top of her hair, his fingers trailing up and down her back he smiled. "I love you too, baby girl."
