Rory was getting into that sleepy zone. As he was listening to Jeff talk, he could see his son's eyes getting heavy and he had no real interest in his toys. It was almost like clockwork that Rory soon shifted and put his little head down onto the blanket beneath him with his arm hugged around a stuffed rabbit, and dozed off. He was a good little sleeper when he wanted to be and could drop off anywhere. It was one little luxury as a single dad Nick had, though that didn't mean Rory always slept on command. He had his nights were he just wouldn't sleep and that meant Nick was up with him too. But with the teething, he was worn out and run down, so he was dropping off with no real routine right now. Nick could leave him a few more minutes until he slept more deeply and then pick him up to transfer him to the cot in his room.
It was after Jeff got to his point about Nick just getting a sitter so he could go out and get laid that Nick's dark eyes turned to gaze at Jeff. The look lingered for a little longer than normal and then he just cleared his throat softly with a small shake of his head. "That's not really my style. Palming my kid off to a sitter so I can get my dick out. It wouldn't feel right. Besides, hook-ups with random faceless dick in general just doesn't sit well in my gut now that I'm a dad. I don't even know why. I can't explain it." He paused with a small snort of a laugh. "No, you're plenty hot," was all he added to that, his tone blatantly serious as he held Jeff's gaze. What the hell was his mind doing to him here. There was no way he and Jeff could have a hook-up. It would make things weird and awkward... right? They might have been BFFs in school, but Nick hadn't know Jeff batted for that team back then, and he had a kid now. Things were different. He was sure there were Hollywood movies with plots like this that ended up always blowing up in the characters' faces. He didn't need sex that much... or at all. So, it was stupid for his brain to even be thinking along these lines. It wasn't convenient or easy, it was stupid, and he didn't want to make things weird just because they both liked dick. He could live without sex and anything else. He had done it this long.
