Met settled down between Jade and Sean on the couch, across from him was Ruby, Leo and Renee.

"Congratulations on the merger," said Ruby. "You're both going to be busy as hell for the next few months."

"Music to my ears," replied Met.

"Uh huh," Sean added.

"Selfish bastards," muttered Jade.

Met laughed. "You're the only exception baby."

Jade seemed satisfied with that.

"Regarding the issue of fraud. We might have a lead, but it's complicated."

"Okay explain," said Sean.

Everyone was tense, this was really important and the suspense was thicker than mud. Met leaned forward and focused on Leo as he began to speak.

"The weird activity we detected," Leo began. "We traced it back to Lancet."

Met tensed but didn't interrupt.

"It didn't make sense because that would be you. I had to make sure so I tracked the sales and transactions to a computer with a peculiar IP address that was bought several years ago. It certainly wasn't yours and it looked like someone had done a sloppy job of trying to hide it. So we hacked into it," Leo adjusted his glasses.

Met suddenly had a dreadful feeling.

"The computer belongs to you Met," said Leo.

"And the plot thickens," Ruby said in a voice so low Renee looked over to her.

"How can it belong to Met?" Jade asked.

"This is frustrating as fuck!" said Sean. He squeezed Met's thigh and Met covered his hand with his.

"How many computers do you own?" Leo asked Met.

"Like four? Why?"

"I checked all four, it's none of them. So when I scanned the serial number and checked the sales info, the name Robert Lancet came up. Does that name mean anything to you?"

"That's my..." Met didn't realize he had stopped mid sentence.

"That's his dad," Sean finished for him. "Fuck."

"I'm thinking he used Met's home computer, one he left behind," said Jade.

"That's my best guess too. It's actually clever," said Leo. "But the truth eventually comes out. I'm sorry about this Met. That's a cruel thing for a father to do."

"He's an asshole," said Met. "And I'm going to pay him a visit."

"Do you want me to start working on a lawsuit?" Jade asked. "I think I can get him ten years."

"Thanks sweetheart, but I think I've got this."

"I think you guys can take it from here," said Leo. "I'll see myself out."

"Thank you, I won't forget this," said Met.

"It's nothing," replied Leo. "I like a challenge."

"Where are we going?" asked Jade.

"Wait you'll see," Sean replied.

Jade's mind worked thinking where his boyfriends were taking him. It sounded really fishy but after a while he let it go. It was futile, even if he wanted to, he couldn't guess.
They drove for fifteen more minutes or so and the car stopped.

What Jade saw was a beautiful house. The design was cozy yet modern. It looked like a home and not just a house.

"Do you like it?" Met asked.

"It's beautiful, but what is this? I really hope you didn't buy me a house because I'm not moving out of yours. I'm not living where you guys aren't," said Jade.

"Ours," Met corrected. "And no, you're not moving out of our home and certainly not without us."

"This is for Nana," said Sean.

Jade didn't know what to feel, he should have felt a little anger but all he felt was relief, and where he should have felt bad, he felt happy somehow."Oh," he said.

"What's wrong?" Sean asked at the same time Met spoke, "You don't like it."

"No," said Jade. "This is great. I just... I've always wanted to do this for Nana one day. It's what has always made me work... ahh never mind."

"Shit," said Sean.

"God, this is embarrassing," Met said. One hand rubbing his neck.

"And uh," Jade continued. "I'm not mad, thank you."

Jade kissed them. "I'm really happy, my face is just taking long to catch up."

"You promise?"

"I promise. Let's show Nana, I've got a feeling she is going to love it," replied Jade.

"Here's the last box," Met said as he extended it towards Jade.

They showed Nana her new surprise house. Jade was right, she had loved it. And now a week later, they were helping her move in. And they decided they'd be sleeping over for the first few days.

Before Jade could hold the box, Met moved it sideways and he grabbed air instead.

"Oopsies!" Met held the box up, out of Jade's reach then turned around, causing Jade to turn till he was the one backed up against the car.

Met put the box on top of the car, caging Jade in between his arms.

He leaned in. "Kiss me first."

God why did he have to make everything that came out of his mouth so sexy?

"Hmm? You want me to kiss you huh?" Jade was already turning the tables.

Jade kissed him and he was the one rendered speechless.

"Do you want another?" he asked.

Met could just nod.

"Give me the box first."

Met handed the box in what seemed like half a second.

"Tonight," Jade whispered in his ear before walking into the house. Leaving Met to stare after him.

"Who's that sexy hunk?" Nana asked.

The older man walked out of his door and walked towards his car. For an old man, he really was hot.

"Your neighbor," said Met.

"Hi there!" Nana shouted and got his attention.

He gave a curt wave, and proceeded to open his car door. He seemed to be in a hurry.

"Mi casa mi casa!" Nana shouted after him.

"It's mi casa es su casa. And he's actually Italian," said Sean.

"Then I wouldn't mind if he'd teach me," replied Nana. "I'll give him a week."

"Please Nana, with your looks and charm, he'll be begging on his knees by tomorrow," replied Sean.

"Oh God you two! Let's get ready for movie night," said Jade.

They went to settle after a while.

"And no smooching!" Nana said then muttered. "No need to remind me I'm not getting any."

"Nana!" Jade shouted.

"What? With the way you guys keep looking at each other, you have to be doing it like rabbits."

Jade groaned and Sean howled with laughter.

"Where have you been all my life Nana?"
