The doorbell rings and the couple runs down to get the door.

"Thank you for coming with such short notice dude."

"No problem man, I brought you some extras."

"Thanks E, this is why you're one of my best men." They bro hug. "This is my boyfriend-"

"For now you can call me Cupid."

"The Cupid? Like the- oh my God I'm fangirlying so bad right now." They chuckle. "I'm Ethan by the way, pleasure to meet such a legendary hitman." They shake hands.

"Pleasure's all mine bro."

Ethan hands them a briefcase and Jack opens it.

"Perfect."

"If you need me, I'll be in that car okay?" They nod.

"Mom, Dad, kitchen right now please!" They walk there and Jack sets the case on the counter.

His parents walk in.

"What's that?"

"This is going to keep you safe if something happens."He opens the brief case and takes out some gun parts. "This is called a gun." He quickly mounts it.

"Zachary D-"

"You wanted protection and this is protection. Don't shoot it unless they hold you at gun point. If I hear some noise, me and Jack we'll get up and see if anything's wrong."

"He's a professional, he knows what he's doing."Jack tries to calm them down.

"Here, hold it and get to know it and don't press the trigger, it's very much loaded." They nod.

"I want Ry to sleep next to Reese when we leave and that's an order. Hide the gun under your pillow when you go to bed."

"Are you spilling the tea without me? I'm offended. Holy shit is that a gun?"

"Language mister and yes." Zach smiles.

"Why did you give Mom a gun? That woman is dangerous without one."

"So you knew what he did for a living?" Ryan nods like it was the most obvious thing in the world.

"I'm his brother, of course I know...and I want a knife."

"Out of questio-"

"Here you go dude, you know what do to." Zach hands him the weapon. "No going to school with it and absolutely no friends over." Ryan nods and inspects the knife closely.

"You know what to do? What is that supposed to mean?"

"It means that he's my uncover agent and I taught him a thing or two to keep you safe when I'm not here. He knows how to take someone out in a blink on an eye."

"Another thing, outside you have some guards. Don't worry, they are not hurting you and if they do something you don't like, let me know."

Zach closes the briefcase, and sits down on the counter.

"Now that everything is kind of solved, let's talk." He wraps his legs around Jack's waist.

"How did you two meet?"

"I hired him for a job and couldn't get him off my mind for days." Zach pecks his head.

"Really?"

"Yeah, after a lot of arguing and being mad at each other, he came home sad one day and-"

"We kissed and it clicked...it seriously clicked."

"Then we had a really bad argument-"

"He literally pointed a gun at my head."

"But I could see he really regretted what happened...so I forgave him and we officially started dating."

"And after that it's been all kisses and cuddles."

"And a few bites...and not from our puppy." They chuckle.

"Where were you vacationing?"

"The Cupid island."

"And he woke me up extra early to see the sunrise and it was beautiful. I didn't take any pictures unfortunately."

"It was beautiful, but you were more." Jack pecks his cheek lovingly.

"I love you." He hums softly, a big smile on his face.

"Love you more." Jack grins.

"See? Look at him...you can't tell me i don't deserve to be with someone that makes me feel like this." Zach looks at his parents.

"Did you meet his parents?"

"Yeah and two of his sisters, but I already knew his step dad."

"Oh?"

"I worked for him."

"You worked for him or you-" Zach sends his father a glare.

"I don't give my ass out like it's lollipops." Jack chuckles.

"Did you tw-"

"Mom! That's my business!" He blushes and hides his face on Jack's shoulder. Myta looked at Jack and he looked away.

"At least tell me you use protection."

"Mom!"Myta looks at Jack again and he gave her a quick nod.

"Mom you need help?"

"Sure, can you check the pasta?"

He complies. Zach suddenly feels some arms wrapping around his waist and smiles goofily.

"Can I help?" Jack asks.

"I want a kiss please." The curly head turned him around, wrapped his arms around his waist and kissed him gently.

He pulls away and connects their foreheads.

"I'd love to stay like this with you, but I need to help my mom babe...but later I'll let you give me all the kisses you want, okay?" He nods and pecks his cheek.

As if on cue his phone rings.

"It's Jo." He answers it.

"Hey Jo, what's up?"

"When are you going coming back?"

"Tomorrow...possibly before lunch, why?"

"Just wondering."

"What did you guys do?"

"We met a couple and they're really nice...we were wondering if we could invite them to dinner."

"Sure, invite them to lunch too and me and Zach we'll meet them."

"Okay, cool thanks dude...look Dani wants to talk with you."

"Hey dude."

"What's up?"

"Your mom called, she wants you two to visit her at their place."

"Seriously? She couldn't give me a call or a text to say that?" Zach pecked his forehead lovingly.

"You know how she is, cut her some slack dude."

"Bye Dani!"

"Bye!" Jack hangs up and sighs.

"The worst thing about all this is that my mom has my number, but prefers to call one of my best friends instead of her own son." He scoffs.

"You know she loves you.".

"Sometimes I question that...but then I remember the most beautiful man in the world loves me and I forget about her."

"Damn right I do...and I won't ever let you doubt that." He pokes his nose.

"Mrs. Herron, your son is a saint."
