Ben saw his love lying next to him in bed. Randy's blues were looking beautiful by the day. The morning sun shown on their naked torsos. Ben grew fond of the feeling of Randy's skin against his. How his palms would run over his pecks, shoulders and arms.
Ben leaned in for the good morning kiss, causing Randy to smirk. Randy soon kissed his Ben cupping his cheek. "Good morning Ben" Randy said. Randy noticed the blush that came with his morning voice. Grabbing a hair tie Randy tied up Bennys hair in a tiny curly palm tree.
Seconds later Randy took the tie out causing the mop of curls to fall free. "I'm sorry I was so tempted to see your hair tied up" Randy said. Ben didn't mind the hair tie in his hair. The sensation of having his hair pulled was not so bad. Compared to the tie being pulled out of his hair that was the uncomfortable sensation.
"Next time I'll try a claw clip, it'll hurt less" Randy said. The older had an appointment reminder from Olivia. Ben had a hair appointment coming up which meant they'd be going to his mom's house. Since Ben was three he'd always have Ms. Izzy cut his hair. Olivia found Ms. Izzy in yellow pages, yes kids the author is ancient.
Now that Ben is twenty years old Ms. Izzy knows what Ben likes. She began cutting, moving in her usual routine. Carefully cutting areas of hair, keeping Ben comfortable.
Ben would occasionally look towards Randy when the scissors were close to his ears. Ms. Izzy would stop to let Ben have some air before she began cutting again. "It looks really nice Ben" Randy said. Allowing his gaze to wander over the styled bits. When Ms. Izzy was done Randy loved the finished product.
"You look so handsome Ben" Randy said. Kissing his head, casually. Ms. Izzy watched the interaction, she knew Ben loved Randy without saying anything. "Handsome is the right word, I'll send the bill to Olivia bye my Benny" Ms. Izzy said. Benny waved goodbye to Ms. Izzy.
It took Ben some time to get used to the shorter curls. But with Randy's help he was able to pull through. "I think she did a phenomenal job with your hair Ben" Randy said. He ran his hands through the top of Bens hair carefully.
"Now come on we need to get to work, Olivia already gave you a hall pass" Randy said. The two soon left for the bakery after throwing on their coats. Ben had his ninja turtle backpack already by the door from the night before.
Randy and Ben walked out to the car, they soon rode off towards the bakery. Normally they'd walk but the snowy conditions were so bad that Randy didn't want to risk Ben getting sick. They soon parked in the back drive way. Olivia's car was parked near the door. Laylas wasn't there, they must've driven together.
Entering the bakery no customers were in sight. Another baker was working on a bakers rack of cupcakes. The smell of cupcakes filled the kitchen. In Bens station a woman was frosting cakes. She was caught using Bens utensils.
"Mama Liv" Ben shouted. Soon Olivia ran out of her office. "Mama Liv" Ben shouted again. "In my office Ben come on" Olivia said. Ben followed his mom into the back office.
Randy stayed out in the kitchen. "Is he retarted or something" She asked. She laughed after asking the question. Randy's heart dropped, he looked at her. She had the nerve to use his utensils and ask a question like that.
"I'm sorry what" Randy asked. "Is he retarted" She asked. "He's autistic dipshit" Randy said. She continued frosting the cakes quietly. Randy walked up behind her. "If I hear you call Benny that low blowing word again you'll be done here...if the customers hear you referring to Ben as that word done...Understand me" Randy said.
"Who are you to say anything" She said. "I'm his lover sweetheart" Randy said. Walking back to his station with a wink.

Ben shouted all the way to his mom's office. He sat on his beanbag in the corner. A few of his sensory toys were lying around. Picking one up he began fidgeting with it.
"Your hair looks nice Ben" Olivia said. He didn't say anything, his eyes were focused on the toy. "That was Zoey she's a new decorator, she forgot her utensils so I told her to use them, don't get mad at her be mad at your mother understand" Olivia said. Ben soon nodded. He sat in silence holding himself in a fetal position.
"Mama Layla" Ben asked. "She'll be here, she wasn't feeling well due to the baby" Olivia said. Ben nodded again. "Do you have your back up utensils" Olivia asked. Ben nodded he didn't want to share with anyone. "I promise you will get your utensils back before you leave today" Olivia said.
Ben went back out to the kitchen he had three things to do. Frost eclairs, donuts and cupcakes. It was an easy day.
While Ben was frosting the eclairs Layla entered through the back. "Hello my Ben bun" Layla said. Kissing her son's head, she noticed he had a haircut a smile was on her face. Passing by Randy she gave him a thumbs up for getting Ben a haircut.
She went back to the office where Olivia was doing payroll. "Bens hair looks nice doesn't it" She said. Olivia nodded. "He had a meltdown over the new decorator using his utensils" Olivia said. "I thought I saw tear stains on his precious face" Layla said. Olivia greeted her wife with a kiss before going out to the bakery floor. "Feeling better" She asked. "Yeah I can manage" Layla said.
Ben managed to keep his own station with his three things. Occasionally he would glance at the other decorator in disgust. Then he would go back to decorating.
The new decorator looked over at Randy who shot her another wink. He went over to Ben at kissed him on the lips. Into the kiss he sent her the bird. "Those buns look delicious by the way" Randy whispered. Causing Bennys ears to turn red.
