Sam didn’t get time to respond, Carson leant down and placed his lips over Sam’s.

Oh, oh that was nice. Really nice. Daddy kissed so good! He ate at Sam’s lips until Sam was breathing hard.

Pulling back, Carson licked his own lips before humming in approval. “Very nice.”

Sam beamed. His gaze darted back to the pink box.

Carson laughed. “I picked this up for you before I knew you’d eaten too many cookies.”

Sam groaned. “More cookies?”

“Not quite, baby.” Carson opened the lid of the pink cardboard box and Sam gasped.

Two large cupcakes, one vanilla and one chocolate, with beautiful pink icing and sprinkles. Sam bounced as he clapped. “Pretty!”

“Why don’t I put these in the kitchen for later and you get our tea ready?”

“K! Hurry, we have parties in the princess room.”

“I can’t wait to see the princess room. I’ll be right there.”

Sam whirled and around to hurry back into his special room. He had to make room for his Daddy to sit so he moved his dolls around. They’d already had three tea parties, so it was okay that they missed this one.

Sam laid his dolls in the dollhouse and got them all comfy. He turned back to the door where Carson was standing. He’d taken off his suit jacket and rolled up the sleeves of his white button-down shirt. He’d also removed the dress shoes that he’d arrived in.

“Can I come in?”

“Yes, can’t have a tea party out there.”

Chuckling, Carson stepped inside. “That’s true.”

He looked around the room and Sam wondered what he saw. It had taken years for Sam to get his room perfect and he loved the small space. He’d taken the guest bedroom and painted the walls a soft shade of pink with white accents. There was a giant dollhouse on one side of the room. Sam was a huge fan of Cabbage Patch Kids and Strawberry Shortcake dolls. He enjoyed the old-school toys from his childhood.

Sam had been so jealous of his cousin Jenny and the toys she’d carted over to his house when she’d visited. Sam had wanted to play with the dolls but the first time that his father had caught him, Sam had paid. It had hurt.

Never again would Sam hide that part of him.

There was nothing wrong with the fact that Sam liked to feel silk against his hand and play with dolls. He even had a whole school set up, with a small chair and table, a chalkboard, and little workbooks.

His favorite part of the room was the pretty little vanity set up in the corner with white lace trim and a large mirror. He kept all his makeup and hair products on the surface so he had enough room to play.

“I love it.” Carson trailed his finger across the top of the large dollhouse. “This room is perfect.”

“It’s mine!” Sam claimed proudly.

“Yes, it is.” Carson dropped down to his knees in front of the fancy table.

Sam hurried over. He’d already dressed the table with a full setting so he dropped on his padded bottom to serve the tea. Sam was glad that he’d pulled out his grandmother's good tea set to play with.

He poured the tea from the pitcher into the white porcelain cup before he placed it on the white plate and passed it over to Carson.

“Thank you, baby.” Carson accepted the cup and brought it to his mouth.

Sam poured himself half a cup since he really was full, but he didn’t want to miss out sharing this time with Carson. He really wanted Carson to be his Daddy so that they could do this all the time. Adam and Caden often visited, and Adam had tea with him while Caden babysat the dolls. Caden was too worried about spilling or dropping the teacups so even though Sam told Caden it was okay, Caden was too nervous to really enjoy the teatime and relax so that left it to him and Adam. It was nice having Carson there with him.

Carson sipped on his tea as he watched Sam with a small smile.

Yes, having Carson here was the best. Next time they could have the little sandwiches and cookies together. When Sam hosted a party, he usually went all out but he’d just needed to relax and be for a few hours, so he hadn’t been fully prepared. He really hadn’t expected to see Carson and what a delightful surprise that was.
