"A Family Dinner Like No Other"

Part 3

As they sat down at the dinner table, Jay couldn't help but feel a sense of gratitude towards the Birch family. The warm lighting in the dining room cast a cozy glow over the table, and the delicious aromas of roasted chicken and steaming vegetables wafted through the air, making his stomach growl with anticipation. Mr. and Mrs. Birch smiled at him, their faces warm and welcoming, as they began to pass around the food. Judd, seated across from Jay, couldn't help but steal glances at the boy. He was wearing Judd's jeans and white shirt, and the fit was surprisingly perfect. The clothes hung loosely on Jay's frame, accentuating his slender build and making him look adorable. Judd's eyes lingered on Jay's face, taking in the sharp angles of his cheekbones and the bright sparkle in his eyes. Nick and Leah, seated on either side of Judd, exchanged uneasy glances. They couldn't help but notice Judd's constant staring at Jay, and it made them feel weird. Nick raised an eyebrow and whispered to Leah, "What's going on with Judd? He's acting so strange." Leah shrugged, her eyes darting towards Judd and then back to Nick. She mouthed, "I don't know, but it's creeping me out." Meanwhile, Jay, Mr. and Mrs. Birch were oblivious to Judd's behavior. They chatted and laughed, enjoying the warm and cozy atmosphere of the dinner table. Jay devoured his food, savoring the flavors and textures of the meal. He was so caught up in the moment that he didn't even notice Judd's gaze. As the dinner drew to a close, Judd continued to stare at Jay, his eyes drinking in the sight of the boy in his clothes. He couldn't help but feel a sense of possessiveness, as if Jay looked better in his clothes than he did himself. The thought made Judd's heart skip a beat, and he quickly looked away, trying to compose himself. Mr. and Mrs. Birch smiled at Jay, their faces warm with kindness. "We're glad you could join us for dinner, Jay," Mrs. Birch said. "We're happy to have you here with us." Jay smiled back, feeling a sense of gratitude towards the couple. "Thank you," he said. "This has been one of the best meals I've had in a long time." As they finished dinner and began to clear the table, Judd's gaze lingered on Jay, his eyes soft with a mixture of admiration and curiosity. Nick and Leah exchanged another uneasy glance, their faces etched with concern. They couldn't help but wonder what was going on with Judd, and why he seemed so fixated on Jay.
