There was a man who worked at the prison, an accountant who Louis had his eye on, but was not sure the man was like himself.
We suggested he invite the man over for dinner with us one night, we would give subtle suggestions to see how he would react. Louis was surprised that he accepted the invitation, but he did and Louis picked the man up at his home and brought him over on a Saturday evening.
Peter went all out with dinner, Paul the accountant asked so many questions about Peter and I and our living arrangement. Paul was in the kitchen with Peter and they were talking, he asked Peter if he and I were more than just friends. It might have been a bit obvious seeing we only had one bed, when we gave him the tour of our home it was then that I realized it.
Peter called me into the kitchen and told me what Paul was asking, I stood there not sure what to say, so I thought lets throw caution to the wind and show the man. Louis got up and came in the kitchen as I pulled Peter in for a kiss. Paul obviously caught off guard, he took in a deep breath watching us as we kissed with so much passion.
He looked at Louis and he smiled as he watched us kiss, I pulled back and had my arm around Peter's back. We all looked at each other, Paul still not sure what to say or do.
"So you and Peter are lovers, partners? Two men who live together, two men who are in love obviously?"
"Yes Paul we are very much so."
"So this was not just a dinner this was a date?"
Louis turned fifty shades of red, I answered for him.
"Yes Paul, Louis likes you a lot, he hopes to date you."
The two of them both so red faced, it was cute and funny at the same time, both so shy I knew I would have to intervene if these two even stood a chance to be together.
"Paul, Louis is looking for a man to be with, he finds you very attractive, and would like to see you more often, maybe one day you two move in with each other, become lovers both during the day and at night in the bedroom with each other. Louis is dying for a kiss from you."
They stood there like two school boys, nervous, shy not sure who should be the first to make the first move. I linked their hands together, then put Paul's arms around his neck, Louis's around his back, the two of them inches from each other. Peter put their lips on each others, they kissed and Peter and I left the room.
They kissed for quite some time, then Peter had to get dinner out of the oven, he sent them into the living room and they sat in close to each other, hands laced together, turning to kiss often. Peter called us for dinner, Louis pulled his chair for him and pushed it in, he stood over him his hands on his shoulders.
We all sat and they traded looks so many times, they were so cute together, we ate and had some really good conversation, at one point Paul turned to Louis and asked if his frequent visits to his office had to do with wanting to ask him out. Louis of course turned so red faced. We all laughed, we sat around after dinner and they sat almost on top of each other.
Paul asked how Peter and I met, we told him the whole sordid story, he was amazed how we met and that we got out and were living in the same home as lovers. I told him maybe someday this would be the normal, for two men or two women to be in a relationship, married, maybe even with children. They all shook their heads thinking what a beautiful world it would be to love the person you loved and not be told it was wrong.
