On The Edge

Chapter Eighteen.

Jason's POV

What had he just said? I looked at him in shock, "daddy, I'm all wrinkled.", I looked towards the bathroom at Cailen's voice, "I'll get it.", Blaine got up and left me staring, I'm not sure what else can be dive in a situation like this, he asked me to sleep with him!!! He really asked me, no one just says let's have sex, what was wrong with him? Especially a straight guy and Blaine was straight, except Dahlia was a cross dresser, she didn't look like a cross dresser to me, he doesn't like gays and he definitely doesn't like me, that's certain. I need to cook, it's my way of getting stuff off my mind, that and ironing, next to cooking, I love to iron. I can spend hours just ironing, it's a strange hobby but it really relaxes me, I got up on my strained foot and winced in pain. I ignored it and made my way to the kitchen, it was still stocked and most of out hadn't spoilt, I had barely lived here a week before moving in with Blaine. It was kinda hard to believe I've barely been here three weeks, I just began to cook, I really liked that, this was the next best thing to ironing. I loved to scents, the spices, the aroma of it all, I'll make something everyone can eat especially Cailen, he doesn't eat meat, maybe a local dish, I don't have the ingredients for kimichi but if I did, I'm really good with making kimichi.of any kind, steamed rice sounds nice, but plain, I paused as I reached for the rice; stop defecting Jason, my mind warned me, you'll still have to face all this, but not now at least, maybe I should add some vegetables in the rice say green pepper and carrots, good then the accompaniment.

"what are you doing?", this was really the last person I wanted to see now, I turned to look at Cailen, "cooking.", he was only tying a towel round his waist, "you were just standing there and talking to yourself." He said, I reached for an apple and sliced it, "I'm just thinking out loud.", I replied absently biting into the piece of apple.

"about Blaine asking you to have sex with him?", I spit the apple out so fast and started choking. "what?!!!", I coughed.

"you know, Blaine asked you to have sex with him, do you need water?"

"no, I'm fine.", I looked at my son, did he just ask me... "where did you hear that? Were you listening in on our conversation?"

He nodded like it was nothing, "all the time, most of the time, it's boring stuff you just bicker a lot like a married couple."

"that's rude and meddlesome, Cailen. Stop it."

"sorry." He suddenly looked so small and fragile, he was still six I reminded myself, he didn't sound six most of the time but he was."it's okay."

"Do you want to talk about it?", he was actually serious.

"Hell no, why would I want to do that?", I was really getting a lot of shock today, my poor heart couldn't take anymore, "you're six and there's no way I'm discussing this with my son."

"but in the only one here who gets you, you can talk to me."

"no."

"I'll talk anyway.", he stamped his little feet, "do you like him?"

I looked at Cailen, I was not going to reply him, "daddy if you don't like him, don't sleep with him. Aunt Jaz told me that."

"but I do like him." I blurted out.

"does he like you?" Cailen asked, he was really getting into his new role as marriage counsellor.

I sighed, what the hell? No one else was here, "I don't know."

"daddy, I'm only six so I don't know a lot about love and sex but do you remember when we read that book?"

"what book?"

"about sex." How did I forget that? A week after his sixth birthday, it was one of the most embarrassing father son moment ever, it was just basic stuff, the point of it was to educate young children on sex to prevent sexual abuse. "that book.said sex usually happens between husband and wife or wife and wife or husband and husband, but it also said sex happens outside marriage, between two people who love and respect each other. Though it's advisable to wait till marriage..."
