"Dad? Why aren't you wearing pants?" Cody weightman asked as he came in the door and tossed down his schoolbag.
"It's Korean night!" Daisy said excitedly, and put down his barbeque tongs to dance and sing Gangnam Style.
Cody's eyes lit up and he clapped along to Daisy's dancing. "Is Khanh coming?"
"Sure is," Daisy said, ripping off his shirt so he was only wearing underwear. "Come on, codes, let's go crank up the Barbie."
Cody stripped off too and proudly helped his dad carry the meat outside. He watched with keen interest as Daisy got everything prepared.
A knock on the door sounded and then the handle turned, and footsteps made their way down the hallway.
"Korean BBQ!!!" Khanh yelled, sliding onto the patio in his socks, the only other clothes he wore being underwear.
"You look great," Daisy said, looking his friend up and down approvingly.
"So do you," Khanh replied, eyes shining. He reached out to ruffle Cody's hair. "Hey, little guy."
"Hey," Cody said, staring up at Khanh in awe. "Did you bring any bugs from survivor?"
Khanh grinned. He reached into his pocket and pulled out a closed fist which he held over Cody's open palm. "Ready?" Khanh challenged.
"I'm so ready," Cody said eagerly.
"Here you go," Khanh said and released his fist, letting the bugs fall into Cody's palm and stepped back.
Cody's eyes widened and his face lit up with amazement as he watched the bugs crawling on his palm. "They're so cool," he gushed. He looked up at Khanh shyly. "Is this what you ate on survivor?"
"Yeah, that was our whole diet," Khanh said drily.
Cody looked back at the bugs. He picked one up in his fingers and stared at it closely, almost licking it.
"Don't, you'll spoil your dinner," Daisy warned nervously.
Cody paused. "I'll go put them in jar," he said, "maybe they can be dessert!" And with that, he ran off excitedly.
Daisy and Khanh watched him go in admiration and pride.
Then they turned back to each other.
Khanh stepped toward Daisy and put his hand over Daisy's white knuckles that were clutching the tongs. "You scared of the bugs?" Khanh asked quietly.
"No," Daisy lied, trying to still his beating heart.
"I bet you had to eat worse in the jungle," Khanh said, his mouth moving closer to Daisy's.
"Yeah," Daisy breathed, and leaned close, his lips brushing Khanh's.
Khanh wrapped his arms around Daisy's naked waist, pulling their bodies till they were touching in multiple places. He just started to give Daisy a long sweet kiss when----
"What about the barbeque?" Cody's voice piped up, forcing Daisy and Khanh to spring apart.
"Yeah, of course, the barbeque," Daisy said, busying himself with turning the kebabs.
Khanh fidgeted, forcing a smile for Cody. "I'll get drinks," he announced, "let's go, little fella, what do you want? Double scotch on the rocks?"
Cody skipped alongside Khanh as they headed inside. "We've got lemonade in the fridge," he said excitedly. "Daddy said we can have it for a special occasion."
"Well, today's pretty special," Khanh replied, reaching the bar next to the kitchen.
"Are you and daddy getting married?" Cody asked, watching Khanh choose a wine.
"Don't know," Khanh replied, selecting the Prosecco. "does your daddy like Aperol spritz?"
"Daddy loves anything with alcohol," Cody answered confidently.
Khanh grinned. "easy to please."
After making up two Aperol spritzes and a lemonade, Khanh carried the cocktails while Cody proudly walked beside him, sipping his lemonade with a straw.
"What did you boys talk about?" Daisy asked casually, flipping the meat over.
"Umm," Cody said, nervously.
"We can't tell you," Khanh said, winking at Cody who grinned. "secret boys talk."
"I'm a boy," Daisy pouted, hating being left out.
"Not with those pink underwear," Khanh said, laughing, as he pointed at Daisy's underwear and handed him an Aperol spritz.
Daisy took the cocktail glumly but cheered up once he had a sip, the alcohol flowing through his veins. "thanks," he said gratefully.
Once the meat was cooked, the three of them sat down at the outdoor table, digging into the food and trading jokes and laughs.
Khanh's hands kept touching Daisy's thighs under the table, and their feet were entwined during the whole meal.
It was only a matter of time before Cody went to bed and the real fun of cooking Korean BBQ in their underwear could begin.
