Chapter 5
"You speak French?" Nick asked Kevin as he watched the snooty maitre d' walk away after taking them to their table. He didn't know what to expect. Kevin had held out the chair for him and then turned to the maitre d' and said... Well, Nick wasn't sure what Kevin said, but it was obviously in French. He was surprised when Kevin spoke to the man in another language. There was always something new to learn about his husband.
"Among others," Kevin answered as he looked over the menu. "It helps when you're looking for new talent, foreign distributors, shoot locations... Not that we normally film in different countries..."
Nick just looked at Kevin and blinked.
"Well, and it helped when I branched out," Kevin smiled when he found something on the menu that he thought Nick would like.
"Branched out? What else is there in porn?" Nick asked, slowly looked down at his menu and realized it was in French.
"Well, there's magazines, calendars, posters, websites, books..." Kevin listed off a few things.
"Books?!?" Nick interrupted Kevin. "Like how to get into porn?"
Kevin laughed and looked up to stare into Nick's blue eyes. "No, not really books. More like, smut novels. Some books based on photo shoots, some on just fantasies and, occasionally, a book on a star that's made it big in the business. Their life... or what they think people fantasize is their life before porn."
Nick opened his mouth to say something, but thought better of it and closed his mouth.
"No, I haven't written one. My life is private," Kevin answered the question Nick wasn't sure should be asked. "And I have other investments outside the industry. There's no way I could afford my life style without branching out."
Nick was silent for far too long. Kevin looked up and saw how uncomfortable he was. Kevin saw how he looked around and fidgeted in his seat. He looked confused while reading the menu... Then Kevin realized the menu was in French and Nick must have felt out of place there. Kevin waved the maitre d' over.
Nick wasn't sure what Kevin had said, but the maitre d' did not look happy. Kevin slipped the man his credit card. The snooty man nodded with a snort and left. Kevin got up and helped Nick out of his seat.
Kevin gave Nick a kiss on the cheek and said, "I think you'd feel more comfortable if we ate at home."
Nick felt so relieved that they were leaving and a bit happy that Kevin knew him so well, or at least could tell that he was uncomfortable here. He stood by Kevin and stared intently at his shoes as Kevin signed the receipt and collected his card. As they left, he looked back and wanted to ask Kevin about the food, but felt guilty for being the reason they were leaving.
Kevin saw the look and hoped he could ease the guilt. "They will send it over. For the price I just paid, they better... That and I think he's a fan."
