more sweet than sour

"Hmmmm... you're not running a fever, and your heart sounds good." Sarah pushed and pulled my head, inspecting me closely. "You're probably just tired from working so hard. I diagnosis you with 'being too good of a boyfriend!'. The treatment? Lots of rest and sweet kisses administered ASAP!"

Sarah was sitting on my chest, over the bedsheets. She'd dropped her apron together the floor before coming up onto the bed and only wore the cum stained panties. I still couldnt believe I was stsring at her perfect, plump pale boobs. with freckles scattered down from her chest, leading my eyes towards her puffy pink nipples. This was the exact situation I'd been dreaming of for years... except...

"Don't forget to give Daddy some of that medicine too, sugar." Nolan said. Watching us from the bedroom door.

"Mwwaa~" Sarah planted a kiss on my lips. "Don't be so greedy daddy! You'll get your turn too!!"

"Well when your done helping your boy feel better come see me. The man of the house has a few chores for you to do before we can relax..."

"Okay Daddy!" Sarah told him as he left our sight. Whispering to me when he was gone. "He always makes me work before we can play. "

"Sarah... do you think you and your father are... close?" I asked. "I mean like... closer than normal?"

"I dunno. I never thought about it?" Sarah seemd confused that I'd even asked. "We do get along pretty well. I'm his special girl, you know?"

I didn't know what I was trying to understand by asking. She obviously thought their relationship was normal, as strange as that was.

"You really love him. Don't you?"

"You're being so silly today Liam, of course I love my Daddy. Everybody does." Sarah smiled down at me. Gently caressing my face.

"Not everybody." I took her arm into my hand, holding it still as I kissed it. "Not like you."

Sarah blushed. Her face scrunching up like it always did when she was embarrassed.

"He was always there for me. He was all I had before I met you." Sarah looked off into the distance wistfully. "When the bullying first started at school, well..."

A small smiled formed on her face, but she shook it off. It was rare to see her looking so cold these days.

"He was there for me. If I didnt have him. If I didnt have you... I dont know if I would have made it."

"You're stronger than that."

"Because of you." Sarah smiled, but her eyes didnt light up like they normally did. Sliding off the bed, she walked towards the door. "Because of him."

"I'm really glad he was there for you when I couldnt be." I told her. Meaning it. "I wouldn't have made it without you either you know."

Who was I to question their relationship? It still felt uncomfortably close to me, but I had to get over that. As off putting as some of his actions were, I couldnf deny that Nolan was a good man. If he was half the reason Sarah was with me today, then I owed him the benefit of the doubt. More than that really.

"You get all soft when your sick Liam." Sarah stifled a giggle. Her face warming up again. "Its cute."

"Don't go thinking it'll be a regular thing." I said. Smirking at her so she knew it was joking.

Sarah stood at the doorway, standing with a foot in both rooms. She clung onto the frame while staring at me. Like she knew she had to go but didnt want to leave.

"Do you think-"

"Coming through sweetheart." Nolan brushed past his half naked daughter. Still shirtless, I watched as her bare tits pressed against his chest. It was weird how normal that felt now.

"Made something special for you." Nolan put down a tray beside me. "There's some tea to help you sleep, and a special helping of some of my special creamer to go with it!"

"Oh wow Daddy! I haven't had that in years!" Sarah licked her lips looking at the little jug filled with the thick white cream.

"Don't be so greedy Sarah." Nolan looked at me. Raising his eyebrows. "You'll get your turn too."

"Ughhh Dadddy!" Sarah groaned. Rolling her eyes.

"Don't worry, I made enough for you." He laughed. "It's in the kitchen. Go get some and wait for me on the couch."

"Thank you daddy!" She cooed. Rushing to grab her snack.

"It's still hot, so be careful." Nolan told me when we were alone.

"This was really kind, thank you." I told him. Pouring plenty of the creamer into the drink.

"Where do you think our girl got her caring nature from?" Nolan put both hands on the bed and leaned back. Staring at the ceiling and smiling. "I tell ya, when she first told me she was going to study nursing I felt like the proudest father in the world. Told her so myself."

I was beginning to think had severely misjudged Nolan. I hadn't expected a man as... sexually vigorous, as he was to be this caring and compassionate. It was a little hard to see the man in front of me as the same man who spent the night railing some random girl and leaving dozens of used condoms all over my furniture.

They were a complicated family I guess. and If I wanted to be apart of it, I would have to embrace that.

Thinking about it... there was something I hadn't done yet that I felt like I should now.

"I have a uhh... a question for you Nolan." I swallowed my nerves. Taking the teacup and sipping at it. "Oh wow thats sweet! And a little salty..."

Nolan watched me. Waiting to hear what I was going to say without hurrying me along. I was almost too nervous to ask, but pushed through. It hadn't felt right before, but now. After hearing Sarah talk about him? About what he's done for her?

"Could... uhh... do you think..." I took a deep breath. Already feeling relaxed by the tea. Looking Nolan in the eyes, with conviction, I asked my question.

"Would you give me the honour of your blessing, to marry your daughter?"
