บท 105: Run in with... (104)
The ball lasted all night. With Dinner and more dancing.
Ben pulled Josh out to the garden to get away from all the noise.
"Having fun?" Ben asked.
"Yes, spending time with your family is great. I will also need to thank Zane for letting my brother come too."
He pulled Josh into an embrace and looked into his eyes. "Thank you for being you. I never thought I would get this close to anyone." With that he kissed him.
Josh was surprised but melted into the kiss. How he loved being with this man.
"Josh, do you think that one day you would marry me?" Ben asked.
"If you ask then the answer would always be yes. I was in a relationship once that I thought was my forever. But it was nothing like how I feel for you. With him is was all sex. With you its life. I am happy right now the way things are and when you are ready I will be ready too but I won't go faster then you are willing to go. You are worth the wait."
"Thanks, I was a little scared because we have not, you know, that you would get tired of me."
"Babe, I will never get tired of being with you." Josh kissed him again then pulled him back to the party to dance.

After everyone headed back to their rooms Bella still felt like she was in a dream.
"Bella it's time sweetheart to sleep." Zane said.
"I'm afraid to. What if I wake up and all this is gone?" Bella said curling up next to him.
"Don't be afraid my beauty, this is all real. You are mine and always will be. When we get back start planning a wedding with your sister. Just try to make it soon." Zane said as he pulled her closer to sleep.

The next morning everyone was packed up ready to head home. Bella woke and stared once more at her lovely engagement ring.
When they got back to the city Zane took Bella back to the penthouse.
Bella put everything away and did a load of laundry while Zane cooked lunch.
He had to admit that this is the life he wanted now. A year ago he could of never imagined this kind of life.
With Heather he would be working hard only taking a break when there was something important to attend with his wife. He would have a marriage just like his parents. With Bella he looked forward to coming home and thoughts of her filled his day. He will have a marriage like what his grandparents had.
As he was washing the lettuce for salad he felt two arms try to wrap around his waist. He smiled, "I don't think my fiancée will like you doing that?"
"Then I guess you better kiss me fast before she comes back." She laughed.
Zane turned as he pulled her in for a kiss.
"I like that word." She said.
"What word?" He asked.
"Fiancée but a better one is fiancé because that is what you are to me right now." Bella leaned into him
"Wife and husband will be better." he said.
"Mmnn"

Sally, Mike, Josh, and Ben were let off together. Josh's car was left at Mike's place.
"Come up to get George and Junior." Mike said.
"I think it will be better to wait down here for them." Josh did not want to cause trouble seeing his father.
"This is my house and I said you are coming up to have lunch before you go home." Sally said.
Josh's eyes went wide he had never seen Sally this forceful.
"It will be all right. I'll be with you." Ben said.
As they went up to the apartment Ben put their bags in the car then headed up.
When he got in the elevator he was met by Harry Gillman carrying shopping bags.
They road up in silence but before the doors could open Ben blocked him. "Mr. Gillman, Why do you push your son away, you are hurting him."
"He is the one who is hurting me. What he is doing is wrong. Someone like you would never understand the real world."
"Someone like me?" Ben asked.
"Bet you were raised by a pansy mother who coddled you. Studied hard and never looked at a girl." Harry said.
Ben laughed, "I had a girlfriend for a few years during school. I played basketball and football. I got a basketball scholarship to collage. I was raised by my father and older siblings. I lost my mother in grade school. I was 17 when I got the courage to tell the boy I like my feelings. He rejected me by beating me up. You son Josh is my first boyfriend and he is very supportive of my family and his. So don't think you know what a person is like just because of who they choose to love."
"I don't want to talk to that kind, including that boy. He is no son of mine. So let me pass."
Ben stepped aside then followed him to Mike's door. When the door opened Harry handed Sally the bags then went straight to the guest room. George shook his head and went in to talk to his Dad.
"What happened Dad?" George asked.
"That thing has the audacity to yell at me about his choice in life."
"I don't understand? What did you two talk about?"
Harry told his son about what was said in the elevator.
"Why do you act this way Dad. Josh is your son too. I just don't understand why you are such a homophobic."
"I'm not talking about this anymore. Let me know when they leave."
"I'll tell Mike, I'm going to be staying with Josh. He has a guest room I can use." George said getting up.
"Don't let Junior stay there. He can share my room here."
"He's my son and he goes where I go."
