The Ugly Duckling

Chapter 16

It had been two days since Kyle and Eli had taken the DNA test, we were supposed to get the results today.

At noon I text Kyle, “any news yet?”

He texts back, “not yet I just left Heather a voice mail, will let you know as soon as I do.”

By the end of the day, we still hadn’t heard from Heather. I drove home and Kyle pulled in right behind me.

He kissed me, “I still haven’t heard anything, I guess we have to wait until tomorrow.”

We looked around and saw that Eli had mowed the yard. We smiled to each other as we walked in the house.

Eli looked up from the couch as we came in, “have you heard anything about the test?”

Kyle shook his head, “sorry, no. I’m sure they will call as soon as the results are in.”

Kyle set his bag down and turned back to Eli, “thank you for mowing the grass, it looks great.”

Eli shrugged, “sure, no problem.”

Kyle and I changed clothes and we started to make dinner, Eli was helping set the table. I smiled to myself, he is a good kid and eager to pull his own weight, it wouldn’t be so bad if he did stay with us.

Just as we were ready to set the food on the table, Kyle’s phone rang. He looked at it and said, “it’s her.”

He answered, “hello, this is Kyle McCain.”

He said, “yes, thank you for calling. No that’s fine, I understand. Ok, yes, I see. And it’s that accurate? Sure, just let me know when. Thanks again for the call.” He ended the call.

Eli and I looked at each other, then to Kyle, looking for any change in his expression to let us know what she said. Kyle set his phone down as we continued to stare at him.

He took a deep breath, looked at Eli and said, “well, since school starts next month, we better get down there and register you for classes.”

Eli swallowed hard and said, “does that mean I’m staying here?”

I saw a tear at the corner of Kyle’s eye, “of course, you are my son.”

Tears rolled down Eli cheek too, he asked, “can I hug you?”

All three of us were now crying as Kyle pulled Eli in for a long hug. Once Kyle released him, Eli turned to me and gave me a hug too. Kyle gave me a kiss, and asked, “are you sure you are ok this this.”

I just nodded, “how many times do I have to tell you yes.”

We finished getting dinner ready and sat down to eat.

Kyle said, “there is some paperwork to fill out, but Heather said she would do that and bring them to my office next week, then everything will be all legal.”

Eli set his fork down, “I’m sorry I just showed up and sprung this on you guys like I did. I guess I should have maybe called and at least warned you first.”

Kyle shook his head, “you know Eli, if I had known you existed, I would have been there for you before now. I am sorry about that.”

Eli smiled, “I know, I wish mom would have told you.”

Kyle nodded, “I can’t say that I would have married her, but I would have supported you. I was still trying to figure myself out at that age, but I would have been there for both of you.”

Eli said, “thanks Kyle, for everything, and you too TJ.”

We both smiled at him and each other and continued eating.

Eli broke the silence, “so, do they have a football team at the school I will be going to?”

Kyle’s eyes lit up, “yes, I am sure they do, would you like to go out for the team?”

Eli nodded, “yeah, I was the quarterback on the junior varsity team at my old school.”

I chuckled, “a chip off the old block.”

Eli looked at me, “why, what does that mean?”

I smiled, “your dad was a star quarterback back our high school days.”

Eli grinned, “really, were you good?”

Kyle shrugged, “well, I don’t want to brag, but I won a few awards.” They started exchanging stories as I went to get our old yearbook. I opened the book and found the pictures of Kyle and the team, I showed them to Eli.

He said, “wow, I kind of look like you in these pictures, don’t I?

Kyle chuckled, “maybe a little bit.”

Eli asked, “where are the pictures of you TJ, did you play football?"

I laughed, “no, I was a bit of a bookworm, I wasn’t into sports.”

Kyle grabbed the book and turned to a picture of me, he said, “here, that’s TJ.”

Eli looked at the picture, “holy shit, you were a porker.”

Kyle said, “hey, language young man.”

Eli looked up, “oh, sorry dad… er I mean Kyle.”

Kyle paused, “you can call me dad if you want to, it’ ok.”

Eli said, “thanks dad, yeah, I think that feels right. Um, but what should I call you TJ?’

I smiled, “you can call me TJ, that’s fine with me.”

Eli looked at me, “I think I’ll just call you T, if that’s ok, it sounds cooler.”

I chuckled, “that works.”

He laughed again, “but I’m sorry, you were a porker in this picture, and that buzz cut is pretty funny.” Kyle was now laughing with him.

I said, “ha ha, very funny, yes I was a goofy looking kid, but I think I turned out pretty good, so we can just drop it.”

Of course, they didn’t drop it and they spent the rest of the night teasing me. After we had finished cleaning up, I said, “if you two are done busting my balls, I’m going to take a shower and go to bed.”

They gave me a couple more parting shots as I headed to our bedroom. I undressed and got into the shower and started to soap up. I minute later, the curtain opened, and Kyle got in with me, “do you need some help?”

I smiled, “are you done picking on me?”

He chuckled, “sorry, but I was trying to bond with my son.”

I pulled him in for a kiss, “I know, it’s fine.”

He said, “thank you for being here for me, and helping me deal with all of this.”

I said, “your welcome.”

Kyle went to his knees and started to suck my dick, which I hadn’t noticed was already hard. I asked, “where is Eli?”

Without taking my cock from his mouth, he said, “he’s watching a movie in the living room.”

He went back to work on my cock and started to work a finger into my ass. Just before I felt like I was getting close, I pulled him up for a kiss. I worked my way down his chest, then his stomach and landing on his beautiful dick. I swirled my tongue around his head then took him as deep as I could. He moaned, “I love it when you do that.” I, of course, had to do it again since he liked it so much. He sighed and pulled me back up for another round of kissing.

Kyle said, “what do you say we take this to the bed.”

We finished washing up and dried each other off and made our way to bed. Kyle pushed me onto my back as we continued kissing. He kissed his way down my chest and stomach, giving my cock another good sucking. He let my dick fall from his mouth and pushed my legs up, he grinned up at me as he pushed his tongue into my waiting hole. I pulled my legs up as far as I could, so he could have complete access to my ass. Once he had me good and wet, Kyle came up to kiss me again as he worked his dick into my hole. He pumped in and out driving both of us crazy with ecstasy, he pushed in as deep as he could and let out a loud groan and flooded my guts with his creamy seed. His softening cock slowly fell from my well fucked ass, I reached down to stroke my dick, Kyle pulled my hand away. He kneeled on the floor to suck me again, he had me so worked up, that it only took a few seconds for me to shoot my load down Kyle’s throat. He came back up and we shared a cum filled kiss.

I smiled up at Kyle, “I love you.”

He smiled back, “I love you too.”

We heard Eli walk down the hall going to his room, he said, “eww gross” as he walked by our closed door.

We chuckled as we crawled under the covers to go to sleep.

The next week, Heather came to Kyle’s office, and he signed all the needed paperwork. Kyle had also called Eli’s grandparents and uncle and told them that he was safe, and if they wanted to be part of his life, they would need to make the first move, we still have not heard back from them. Eli had used Coulter for his last name since his stepdad had never formally adopted him. Kyle was happy when Eli asked if he could change his name to McCain. I was so proud of Kyle, he had gone from wanting to kick Eli out on the street on that first day to being a great dad a short month later.

I got a call from Andy, we had been so busy with Eli, that I hadn’t had a chance to talk to him in a while.

I answered, “hey Andy.”

He said, “hey TJ, I was wondering if you were still alive.”

I laughed, “yeah, sorry. It’s been a little crazy around here.”

He said, “no problem, hey Jenna and I are coming to town this weekend. We got a new computer system for the store, and they have a training session on Friday.”

I said, “that’s great, yes you can come over Saturday and we’ll make dinner for you guys, you’re bringing the kids right.”

He said, “sure, they would love to see uncle TJ and uncle Kyle again.”

I decided to surprise them, I said, “we can’t wait to see you guys and we have some news to share when you get here.”

He asked, “what’s the news.”

I chuckled, “we’ll tell when you get here.”

Saturday afternoon, we let Andy, Jenna, and the kids in the front door. After a round of hugs, they saw Eli standing there.

Kyle put his arm around Eli’s shoulder, and said, “Andy, Jenna, this is my son Eli.”

Their eyes went wide, Andy looked at me, I nodded. Jenna smiled, “well, nice to meet you Eli, you look just like your dad.”

He smiled, “thanks, nice to meet you too.”

I said, “Eli, this is Drew and Emma.”

Drew looked Eli over for a minute, Eli smiled at him, “hi little dude nice to meet you.”

Drew smiled, “I brought my Legos, you want to play with me?”

Eli laughed, “sure, let’s go in the living room.”

Before long they were on the floor, playing Legos and after Emma saw that Drew was having fun, she joined them. They were laughing and wrestling around. Eli couldn’t go anywhere without his new friends at his side for the rest of their visit.

We told Andy and Jenna the whole story, Andy said, “he seems like a great kid, we’re happy for you guys.

We introduced Eli, to all our other friends and Kyle’s parents finally came for a visit. His mom was thrilled that she had a grandson, and his father was actually married.

School started and Kyle was as proud as a peacock when Eli came home to tell us he made the football team.

Eli said, “I’m not the starter, but coach said if I work hard, I should get to play quite a bit.”

Kyle smiled, “that’s great, TJ and I will be at every game.”

We were happy at the first game, when Eli got put into the game right after half time, the starting quarterback was struggling, and Eli played well enough that they won the game. We ran to the field after the game to congratulate him, just as all the other players’ parents did. We were so happy that Eli was fitting into his new school.

I got home from work the next week and was surprised when Kyle and Eli were already home. I sensed something was wrong when I walked in the door. I asked, “what’s going on?”

Kyle looked at Eli, “you want to tell him?”

Eli looked at me, that’s when I noticed the black eye. He said, "I got in trouble for fighting today, they called dad to come pick me up.”

I asked, “why were you fighting?”

Eli sighed, “Trever started it, he’s still pissed that I got as much playing time as he did in the last game. He made a comment about me having two dads. I told him to go screw himself and he jumped me.”

I looked at his eye, “are you alright?”

He grinned, “yeah, he only got in one punch, he looks much worse than I do.”

Kyle sighed, “Eli, it’s nothing to be proud of, you shouldn’t be fighting.”

Eli said, “yeah but, he has been making comments about me ever since I joined the team. What was I supposed to do?”

Kyle said, “you should have told the coach or a teacher.”

Eli looked at me, “so T, were you ever bullied in high school?”

I said, “well, maybe a little bit.”

He asked, “what did you do about it?”

I looked at Kyle and chuckled, “I married him.”

Kyle sighed, “ok, that’s a story for another time. From now on, no more fighting.”

Eli grinned at me, “ok dad, I promise no more fighting. T, we will talk later when he’s not around” Kyle rolled his eyes.

Things got better for Eli after he and Trever had to stay after practice for a week running extra sprints. The coach had a long talk with them, and I think once Trever realized Eli could kick his ass, he backed off.

Eli continued to make more friends, and our house became a hangout for him and his buddies. They were mostly all good kids, and we were happy to have them at home instead of running around on the street.

Kyle and I came home from work a few weeks later and were surprised when instead of a bunch of teenage boys, we found Eli and a cute girl sitting at the table doing homework. We stopped at the door and stared at them, we were both grinning.

Eli stood up, “stop grinning and promise me you won’t embarrass me.”

I chuckled, “oh, we would never embarrass you.”

Kyle said, “of course we won’t, who is your little friend?”

Eli rolled his eyes, “Alisha, this is my dad Kyle and his husband T. Guys this is my friend Alisha.”

Kyle smiled, “hi Alisha, it’s nice to meet you.”

I said, “yes, you two make a cute couple.”

Eli turned red, “this is what I meant about embarrassing me.”

Kyle laughed and patted him on the shoulder, “relax Eli, we will leave you two alone.”

Alisha said, “it’s nice to meet you both.” We started to leave them alone, I heard Eli say, “I’m sorry about that.”

She chuckled, “it’s ok, I think they are cute. Believe me, it will be worse when you meet my parents.”

We invited her to stay for dinner, and after she called her parents, she agreed. After we ate, Kyle and I were sitting on the couch watching tv while they finished their homework. Once they were finished, Alisha came in and thanked us for dinner and said goodbye.

We watched Eli walk her to the door, he looked back at us, and we quickly turned back to the tv. He leaned in and gave her a little kiss. He turned back to us as we were grinning at him, he turned bright red.

We looked at each other and in unison said, “eww gross.”

 

The End.
