Both you and León were new to this, and you each had to swallow your prejudices because, honestly, the chemistry was there from the first date.

Despite the significant age difference, of course there were doubts; he could be your father, and he's very aware of it.

People will always talk about what they don't know. Only you and León know what's going on in your relationship, and that's all that matters.

At first, you didn't think things would get so serious, but León was everything you were looking for in a partner, so this day had to come.

Your parents were eager to meet your boyfriend. You hadn't told them much about him, as you weren't sure how they'd react. You only mentioned that he was "a little" older than you, but not his exact age.

Leon came out of the shower and saw you lost in thought in front of the mirror. He could almost hear your thoughts racing through your mind. In an hour, you were both going to dinner with your parents, and there you were, reconsidering everything.

And, as was a bad habit he'd picked up over the years, he needed to lighten the mood with a silly joke.

"Are you afraid I'll tell your dad that you call me 'Daddy' too?" he said with a grin as he dried his hair with a towel.
