"We're going to be later for work," Luca manages to say before Jamie cuts him off with another mind-scrambling kiss.

"Not if I have my way," Jamie responds, pulling away from Luca and trailing a hand down his chest. Luca's breath catches in his throat as Jamie pushes away the towel he had tied around his waist, and wraps sure fingers around Luca's achingly hard cock. "Hm, do you really want me to stop, love?"

Jamie watches the other man with heated eyes, loving the way that Luca seems to fall apart with just a simple touch.

He will be honest, Jamie hadn't intended to do anything like this when he woke up, but when he saw Luca coming out of the bathroom in only a towel, he couldn't seem to help himself. He had immediately thrown off the warm blanket she had been cuddling under and crowded Luca against the wall.

But, it doesn't look like Luca is complaining. Jamie leans forward again, kissing Luca's now slack mouth before lowering himself to the ground. With the towel fallen to the ground, Jamie is given an unobstructed view of the cock he loves so much.

A bead of precum is already on the tip of Luca's cock, and Jamie leans forward, giving a soft lick across the head. Luca curses, causing Jamie to look up at him through his lashes. The other man looks utterly debauched. A flush is across his cheeks and his plush lips are slack. He watches Jamie closely, his attention is so rapt that Jamie can't help but put on a show.

Without breaking eye contact, he leans forward, licking a long stripe up the underside of Luca's cock before sucking the head into his mouth. The flavor of Luca spreads across his tongue, and Jamie finds himself enjoying this just as much as the other man. He has always loved giving blow jobs. Add in the fact that it is Luca that he is doing this too, and he is barely containing his excitement.

With his free hand, Jamie works off his pajama bottoms. The cool air on his cock does nothing to lessen his excitement. He wraps his fingers around his cock, a moan reverberating in his throat as the pleasure builds. Luca curses gain, most likely feeling Jamie's pleasure just as much as Jamie feels his.

Jamie doesn't miss a beat as he goes down further on Luca's cock, deep throating the other man before slowly pulling off. As he does so, his tongue dances across the heated, soft skin, drawing patterns and tracing the prominent vein o Luca's cock. When he reaches the head, he tongues the underside giving it a few sucks like a delicious lollipop before sliding back down.

Being with Luca is like nothing Jamie has ever experienced before. Ever since the first night, when they forgot the condom, they have been going without it ever since. Of course, they had both gotten tested and both came out clean. But, now, the sex is on another level. Being able to taste Luca and feel him moving inside him...

That thought has Jamie moaning again, eyes fluttering shut and hand moving quickly over his cock. God, all he wants to do is throw Luca onto the bed and ride him for hours, but Luca had been right. They don't have time for that right now.

Jamie speeds up his sucking, bobbing his head rhythmically in order to bring Luca off. Luca isn't one to disappoint, he let's out a gasped, "Jamie, fuck, I'm gonna..."

But Jamie doesn't heed the warning. He just pulls back enough so that his lips are wrapping around the head of Luca's cock when the other man comes. Jamie holds Luca's eyes as cum spills across his tongue, a few drops falling on his lips when he pulls away.

Luca pulls him up, arms wrapped tightly around Jamie's back as he kisses him deeply. He pulls away slightly. "God, you're amazing, love." Jamie smiles, giving the other man another kiss as Luca's hand trails across his ass and over to his cock. "Now, let me just..."

But his words and actions are cut off by Noelle's cry coming from the nursery. They both just laugh, and Jamie pushes away from Luca. "You go take care of her."

"What about..." Luca's eyes flick down to Jamie's still very hard cock.

Jamie just shoos him away, already walking towards the shower. "I'll take care of it." He looks over his shoulder at the other man, a downright wicked smile on his face. "You can repay me tonight."

The flush from earlier spreads even more across Luca's face, and Jamie can't help but laugh. Yes, he loves that man and he loves every second with him.

Noelle lets out another cry that snaps Luca into action. He walks over to his dresser, grabbing a pair of pajama bottoms and slipping them on before leaving the room. Jamie listens for a few seconds, waiting until he hears Noelle's cries quiet and Luca's gentle murmuring to her before going into the bathroom.

All of his bathroom stuff is waiting for him, and the sight of it brings a smile to Jamie's face. His lease is expiring in April, and he is really not tempted to renew it. That apartment has not felt like home in a while, and he barely spends any time over there anyway. Even his cats got moved over here since he was only spending one night a week at his place. They like it better too, having more room to roam around and more windows to look out. Dragon especially loves to sleep in Noelle's room on her window seat, while Arry prefers the chair in front of the fireplace. Seeing all of his babies being happy makes Jamie feel reluctant to leave even to go to work.

Because in the house, they can pretend that everything is fine. Once they go outside, they are faced with the harsh reality of the custody battle heating up. They have their meeting with Becca's parents next week. Jamie already feels like he knows how that is going to turn out. They are not going to give up and this is just going to be a battle to the very end.

That is another reason why he can't force himself to stay at his apartment. It feels like giving up already. It is too far away from the rest of his family.

Jamie quickly washes his hair and face before stepping out of the shower. By the time he is dressed and ready to go, Luca already has Noelle downstairs. She is happily drinking a bottle while Luca finishes breakfast.

"I can finish up, love, so you can get ready."

Luca looks over at him, a small smile on his face. "It's alright. I got it."

Jamie pours himself a cup of coffee before taking Noelle from Luca. She smiles at him around the nipple of the bottle, and he can't help but bend down to give her a kiss on her cheek. She is so expressive already, quick to smile and giggle now that she is getting older. Having her sleep in their room for most of the night really helped balance out her sleep schedule. Now she only woke up twice during the night, allowing all of them to get a good night's sleep.

"We still doing dinner at your parents' place?" Luca asks, sliding a plate full of eggs, bacon, and toast over to Jamie.

Jamie feels his eyes widen. "Oh shit, I forgot about that." He switches Noelle to one arm so he can eat freely. "Yeah, we have to. You know how dad is. He'll come searching for Noelle if we don't show up with her."

Luca leans against the counter, eating slowly from his own plate. "Are we going to tell them about us?"

That makes Jamie pause, eyes running over Luca. The other man isn't looking at Jamie, instead staring steadily at his plate. "Do you want to?"

Luca finally looks up at him, his eyes steady and sure. "Yes. I want everyone to know."

His words cause a smile to spread across Jamie's face, his heart clenching with the amount of love that he has for the other man. "Okay, then we'll tell them."

"Yeah?"

"Yeah."

Luca puts his fork down, walking around the island so he can pull Jamie into a tight hug, pressing a chaste kiss on his lips. Jamie can't help but smile.

*****

Walking into his parents' house is just as chaotic as usual. He can hear someone yelling from outside the house when walking up the driveway with Noelle in his arms. He and Luca just exchange knowing looks before walking into the house.

"Now, Mariana, I'm sure your brother didn't mean to turn your shirt pink," his Papa says, voice drifting down the hall.

"Papa, you always take his side! And it wasn't just a shirt, it was a whole load of laundry. Now everyone is going to think that I only own pink clothes!"

"Nothing wrong with that," his dad says, voice from farther away.

"Dad!"

They come into the living room then and see that Jonny is hiding behind Papa who is facing his sister and trying to placate her.

"Ah, yes. Good to be home," Jamie remarks.

Everyone looks over at them then, and Papa immediately turns towards them, a wide smile on his face as he holds out his arms for Noelle. "Oh, there she is, the only sweet girl around."

Noelle allows herself to be taken away from Jamie, not even disturbed by the loud screech that follows a few seconds later.

Jamie turns to watch his brother running from the room, yelling over his shoulder at Mariana who is currently chasing him. Their footsteps thunder throughout the house and up the stairs.

Jamie looks back at his Papa. "You're not going to go after them?"

He just shrugs. "Eh, I got more important things. Jonny can take care of himself." Another loud cry comes from upstairs, arguing muffled through the floorboards. They all look up the ceiling as if they can see Jamie's younger siblings arguing. Papa turns towards the kitchen. "Come with me, Noelle. Let's see what your Grandpa is up to."

The arguing gets quieter as they follow his Papa into the delicious smelling kitchen. His dad is currently stirring something on the stove. He looks up when he hears them enter the kitchen, a wide smile spreading across his face.

"There's my favorite girl!" he says, putting the lid back on the pot he was stirring before coming over to take Noelle from his husband. She giggles as he places a bunch of rapid kisses on her cheeks. "I missed you, sweet girl."

She smacks him in the face with her hand accidentally, and he just grabs it, pressing a hand on the palm. "Now, how about you help me with this dinner. You need to learn how to make Zuppa Toscana anyway. It's a family tradition."

With Noelle and his Dad sufficiently distracted, Jamie finds himself turning to look at his Papa, who is looking between him and Luca with knowing eyes, arms crossed over his chest.

"You know, the two of you have been showing up a lot together." He raises a knowing brow. "Something's changed. Anything you would like to share with your me and your dad, Jamie?"

Luca comes over to Jamie then, a hand wrapping around his waist. "Actually, there is something we wanted to tell you."

A loud, excited squeal comes from his dad by the stove, both him and Noelle looking at them. "I knew it, I knew it! I told you that they were finally together, Harrison!"

Jamie finds his mouth open in shock. "What do you mean 'finally'?"

His dad just rolls his eyes then. "Oh please. We knew that the two of you would finally get over yourselves and end up together. You have been attached to him since the two of you were born, and you did those cute little wedding ceremonies all the time when you were little." He bounces Noelle a little, a wide smile on his face. "Got to say, we lost hope for a little bit when Becca was still in the picture but looks like we didn't need to."

He comes over, wrapping Jamie in a tight hug before doing to same to Luca, who looks just as startled. Noelle reaches for Jamie then, and his dad passes her off to him. "Now look at the two of you." His eyes are suspiciously damp, and Jamie can feel his own eyes prickling. "Oh, I'm just so happy for the two of you!"

The front door opens again, and Luca's mom calls out to them. Jamie's dad immediately whips around, barely calling out a hurried, "Harrison, watch the soup. I have to tell Roni and Maris the good news," over his shoulder before disappearing from the room.

Luca pulls Jamie into his side again, the two of them appreciating the small reprieve before another excited noise comes from the living room. Jamie just rolls his eyes, a wide smile on his face as he cuddles Noelle closer to him, allowing Luca to guide him into the squealing storm occurring in the living room.
