"Uncle Gary!" Kenny squealed.

"Kenneth? I haven't seen you in years kid! How've ya been?"

"Pretty good. Oh, uncle Gary, this is my boyfriend Craig."

Craig stepped forward, simply nodding in acknowledgment, but he stepped back when the man leaned forward and gave him a big hug.

"What, you just not gonna give your future uncle in law a hug?"

Craig pulled his hand out of his bear hug and tapped him twice, signaling him to let go. Once he did, Craig's hand fell to his knees as he tried to regain his breath. Uncle Gary slapped him on the back and laughed.

"He's quiet the slender fellow. I'd say Ken, you've got the same taste in guys as your uncle does in girls. Skinny, Black hair and quiet."

Kenny giggled and walked inside. Craig followed after, and the first thing he noticed was the two naked girls sitting on Uncle Gary's couch. smoking.

"Cool, prostitutes!" Kenny yelled. The woman snarled at him and looked away. Craig walked around a bit, but only found drugs, alcohol, and several women in the house. He wasn't very trusting towards Uncle Gary, but Kenny seemed happy, so he had no right to take this reunion away from him.

After all the ladies had left, Uncle gary and Kenny sat on the couch and talked while Craig made dinner.

"So Ken, have you gone all the way with your boyfriend?"

"Uncle Gary!"

"It's a serious question!"

"No, he's not ready yet. I'm not doing anything without his consent first."

"That's smart Kenny."

Kenny smiled. It made him feel loved being praised by someone he'd looked up to, something he never had growing up. Craig walked in later, holding three bowls with ramen in them. Not just regular ramen though, there was spices and stuff in it too. 

"Damn Craig, you really outdid yourself." Kenny praised, his uncle nodding in agreement. Craig shrugged and sat next to Kenny, pulling him close. The three of them watched the history channel well into the night. Kenny eventually fell asleep on Craig. Uncle Gary saw them and got up to leave.

"Wait." Craig called out in a whisper. Uncle Gary stopped. He turned back to Craig, awaiting whatever he had to say.

"Um, thanks for letting us stay here."

Uncle Gary smiled and nodded, leaving upstairs without another word. Craig adjusted in his spot,so he and Kenny could sleep comfortably. He made it so Kenny slept on top of him, with his face pressed to his chest. He could smell the smoke imbedded in his hair from years of smoking and being around people who smoke. As far as Craig was concerned, that was the best smell in the world. He soon fell asleep.

Craig was shaken awake the next day by Kenny, who somehow woke up before him for the first time in never.  

"Come on Craig, we're gonna go to the arcade today with my uncle."

Craig sat up and rubbed the sleepiness away from his eyes, and took a minute to process what Kenny had said. Kenny pulled on his arm, and lead him to the car, where Uncle Gary waited. The two climbed into the backseat, and Craig nearly fell back asleep on the way there, but kept getting shaken awake by Kenny.

"Dude, are you good? You look really tired."

"I haven't slept in a while." Craig admitted.

"Oh, well you can sleep when we get back ok?"
