"Jake! Brandon! Get down here, please!" Luke raised his voice enough for his two sons to hear him from their rooms but not loud enough to discomfort his little one who was sitting in his high chair next to the dining room table.
Nolan made little babbling noises as Michael sat next to him and fed him a bowl of applesauce, occasionally wiping his face of any food that he didn't manage to swallow.
Two teenage boys emerged from the hallway and sat down at the table after grabbing their food that Luke had made.
"Can you guys watch Nolan tonight? Your dad and I are gonna go out to eat for dinner." Michael asked as he fed the baby another spoonful of applesauce.
Both Jake and Brandon sighed dramatically, causing Luke and Michael to smile. They knew that the boys didn't mind watching Nolan while they were out, mainly because he wasn't a fussy baby. Also because they found out that girls loved guys who were good with kids.
"Yeah, we'll do it." Brandon said as he finished his food.
"Good, because you didn't really have a choice in the first place."
Luke giggled at Michael and took their plates to the sink before coming back to the table to see Michael picking Nolan up from his high chair.
He came up behind Michael as the man pressed kisses to Nolan's cheek, causing him to have a fit of giggles. Luke laughed as he joined in and pressed his lips to his other cheek.
Little squeals erupted from the little boy in Michael's arms.
"You know you're cute, don't you baby?" Luke asked in his 'baby talk' voice.
He let out little gurgles before Michael slipped a binky in his mouth.

It was around six and Luke and Michael were ready to leave for their date night. Luke was giving the boys instructions about what to feed Nolan and when, the shows that were it allowed to be played in front of him and what time to put him to bed.
Michael shook his head at his husband's overprotectiveness but still pressed a kiss to his temple as he told him he would be in the car.
Luke said goodbye to the twins before pressing a kiss to Nolan's chubby cheek. He managed to sneak out of the house before Nolan realized he was leaving.
This left Brandon and Jake with a crying baby now that he realized his parents had left.
The two looked at each other as his cries got louder, both knowing they were in for a hell of a ride.
Jake and Brandon had never been so relieved to hear their parents' car come up the driveway. Jake was in his room and Brandon was still struggling to put Nolan to bed after almost an hour of trying to get him to stop crying.
Michael walked in and Brandon immediately handed Nolan over to him. "Take your baby, I'm going to sleep."
Not one word later, he was up the stairs and the sound of his door slamming shut was heard throughout the house.
Nolan quieted his cries when he was handed to his dad. He laid his head on Michael's shoulder and sucked on his small fingers as Michael tried to find a binky for him.
Once they were in their room Luke got undressed and changed into a pair of sweatpants, leaving a pair for Michael on the bed. He and Michael made their way to Nolan's nursery and laid him in his crib after giving him multiple kisses all over his face.
"Someone was cranky today, hm?" Luke rhetorically asked Nolan.
"He didn't want us to go." Michael whispered as Nolan closed his eyes.
Luke grabbed Michael's hand and led the way to their room before getting under the covers.
"He'll have an entire day with us tomorrow to make up for it."
"The boys aren't gonna want to babysit for a while after tonight." The couple laughed at the thought of their sons trying to get Nolan to stop crying for the majority of the night.
They wouldn't have it any other way.
