After helping Jack get off in the bathroom, it was hard to ignore the elephant in the room. I wasn't sure that I had done the right thing. I could never say no to him, except when something was obviously bad or dangerous for him.
That was always the trouble with single parenting. Jack is my one and only, so I had a tendency to spoil him. Buying him the latest and greatest toy was now not the worst thing that I've done to spoil him.
I couldn't help myself. He is so beautiful and was in such need. I consoled myself in that jerking him off wasn't the first thing that I wanted to do but a blow job would have been worse. Maybe what was worse even than that was that I kissed him like I did.
He kissed me back and then kissed me again. He all but came right out and said that he wanted to suck me off. There was no way that I misinterpreted. He wanted it. I wanted it too, so very badly.
The only thing that stopped me was that I didn't know what would happen afterwards. We'd broken down a couple of barriers earlier but what would happen after we broke them all down? Would Jack become my lover? Would we share a bed every night? I didn't know and the unknown was troubling me.
Maybe I was overthinking things. Jack must have noticed that I was preoccupied. We had gotten him in some boxer shorts and ready for bed and were watching some TV together. He was cuddled up close to me as he usually was.
"Penny for your thoughts." Jack said quietly as he shoved against me gently.
"Oh, I was just thinking about stuff." I tried to be vague. I wasn't sure that I wanted to discuss it. If he would dismiss my concerns then I was afraid that we'd continue to the point of no return.
"Ok, dad. I think I know what's going on and I think that you should know that there's nothing that you can't say or do with me." Jack said. This kid was getting to me. He knew how to get what he wanted.
I turned off the TV and turned to face him. "Jack, honey. I want to make sure that we're doing the right thing. It doesn't matter if it's what I want or you want. We can both want something but that doesn't make it right. I don't want to deprive you of opportunities to be young and free. I don't want you to make the mistakes that I made. I didn't have a lot of opportunities after your mom. Not a lot of guys want an instant family."
"Dad. I'm not missing out on anything, and I'm not asking to get married or anything." Jack answered me. "I'm not inexperienced, you know. Kyle and I have been messing around for a while now but it's not the same as it would be with you. With Kyle it's just sex. Besides, neither of us has to stop messing around, right?"
I thought about it. I had my suspicions about Jack and his friend Kyle. They were both 18 and were on the high school swim team together. They did hang out a lot and Kyle was good to him. Not to mention that Kyle was also hot. I had to stop myself from picturing them together.
"You're right, Jack. Maybe I'm reading too much into it all." I offered up.
"Yes, I think so." He said. "Look it doesn't have to mean that everything changes. I'm pretty sure that you want it and I've wanted it for a while. I love you dad. I want you to be my first."
"But I thought that you and Kyle?" I wasn't sure what he meant.
"Yes, Kyle and I mess around but he's never fucked me and I've never fucked him. I want that first time to be with someone I love. I like Kyle but we're not in love. I want my first time to be special." Jack said lovingly. Little by little he was wearing me down.
"Jack, you have no idea how much I want to, but this is a big step. I love you so much and I want to give you everything. I just don't want to hurt you." I told him as I put my arms around him.
"You could never hurt me, dad. You've always been the best." Jack said as he kissed me on the cheek. "No pressure, ok?"
"Ok. No pressure." I agreed. We kissed lightly and snuggled in to watch TV. Before too long, Jack had fallen asleep against me. It's been a long time since I've been able to carry him and I didn't want to wake him up, so I thought to get him setup on the couch.
I turned off the TV and lay him down on the couch as gently as I could and covered him with a blanket. He looked so sweet as he slept there. Every time I saw him my heart swelled. My beautiful boy. Maybe we could have a sexual relationship after all. I thought about what Jack said about me being his first. Did I really want someone else to be his first? Someone else who might take advantage of him?
