Romance Troubles - Chapter 6
Your name is Dave Strider and you have been thinking about what to do. Over the past 3 hours you have come to 3 conclusions. First thing is that you are completely head over heels for your best friend John Egbert. Second that no matter how much you try to deny it; you do actually have more than brotherly love for your Bro. Last is that you are more than happy and willing to try dating them both if they think that it will work. Now all you needed to do was go to bed and talk to them both tomorrow morning.
Right then Dave heard the door to the apartment open causing him to look at the clock. Dirk was coming back a little after 4 am. He stood up and opened his bedroom door as he headed out into the hallway. He turned and was surprised when he almost walked in to his brothers' chest. Dirk had grabbed his shoulders to prevent the collision, "Hey little dude that was really close."
Dave looked up at his brother and flushed, "Fuck... Sorry I wasn't paying attention."
Dirk smirked as he reached his hand out and ruffled the younger's hair, "Its fine. So did you think over what we talked about earlier?"
Dave nodded, "Yeah."
A smile graced Dirks face, "What did you decide?"
Dave looked down and said quietly, "I think I wouldn't mind giving it a try."
Suddenly Dave was in the elders arms as Dirk gave him a hug, "That's awesome little dude because I've liked you for a long time. Just didn't think you felt the same way."
Dave frowned, "Well I had never thought about it before tonight, but now that I have sat down and finally taken the time to actually think about it some stuff makes sense."
Dirk released him and gave him a quick peck on the lips, "Well anyways I'm heading to bed."
Dave moved over so that the taller blond could get to his bedroom. He walked to the kitchen grabbing a bottle of apple juice before heading back to his room to go to bed himself.

EB: Okay but why so suddenly?
TT: Just get ready I'm getting in the car now.

John yawned as he rolled out of bed both confused and a little annoyed about being woken up so early. He did not go to bed after 4 am to be woken up a little after 12. Yet it wasn't an unusual thing since Dirk was like the master of strange random dates. He moved around his room quite sluggishly but still making sure he would be ready before Dirk got there. When he heard the honk of Dirks old mustang he slipped his shoes on and headed outside grabbing a sweater as he closed the door. He saw Dirk sitting in the driver's seat of the mustang and smiled. He quickly made his way to the car sliding in to the passenger's seat, "So what suddenly brought this on?"
Dirk smirked and before John could say anything else he felt two arms wrap around his shoulders. He saw a blond tuff of hair and felt lips press against his own. He leaned into the kiss, trying his hardest to win dominance in the battle of their tongues but he failed. Dirk laughed, "Geez. Long enough kiss."
Dave backed up and smiled, "I have to give it my best if I want to catch up to how much you've gotten to kiss him."
John giggled, "You'll have to try harder than that then."
Dave was surprised by how honest John was about the situation. John reached out and pulled Dave back down for another kiss this time the kiss was completely dominated by John. Dave could instantly tell the difference between their amount of experience and it surprised him. When he pulled away John smirked and licked his lips, "You look like you enjoyed that."
Dave was rather shocked by how controlling John was being. Dirk placed his hand on the back of Daves neck, "Don't just assume that I was the one in control of this relationship. He may not look like it but he's quite aggressive sometimes."
Dave laughed, "Well god didn't realize there was this side to you John." A smirk graced his lips, "But I like it already."
Dave sat back sliding his seatbelt on. Dirk smiled and looked back ahead as he hit the gas. They drove away from the house rather quickly.

They were currently sitting outside the amusement park. John was slightly surprised since they almost never went to places like this. John loved the amusement park, but both of the Strider boys felt differently. From previous experiences way too many people looked at them, or hit on them, and always caused problems. John had never experience such a thing but the Strider boys had always refused to go to such places, "Well I definitely wasn't expecting this."
Dave smiled, "That's why we brought you here."
Dirk nodded in agreement, "We both know that this is basically your favorite place on earth other than a joke shop and we are never taking you to the later."
John smiled and slid one arm around both of his boyfriends' shoulders. He hugged them before giving them both a small peck on the cheek, "Thanks."
Both of the Striders smirked at each other before John grabbed the door handle and said, "Lets' go in then."

John smiled as he held a hand tightly in each of his own walking forward. They all had paper bracelets to show that they had paid the entrance fee and were now heading towards the rides. The first thing that John wanted to ride was the Bonsai. It was a ride that only 2 could go on so Dirk sat out saying that the 2 kids should go have fun. Dirk received a pout from both John and Dave before they went to stand in line. Honestly Dirk wasn't a fan of upside down rides anyways although he wasn't going to tell them that. That was how the day went. They moved from one ride to the next taking turns together. Sometimes John would sit out, sometimes Dave would, and sometimes it was Dirk. After a few hours they decided to stop and get something to eat. John was looking at the menu while they were standing in line, "I'm not sure what I should get."
Dave looked in the same direction, "I'm just going to get a normal cheese burger."
Dirk nodded, "Same here. A cheese burger and a large fries."
John put his hand to his lip to show that he was thinking, "I think I am going to get a smoky. I don't feel like having a burger."
Dirk nodded, "You guys can go sit down then I can order for all of us."
John and Dave both nodded before they headed to the sitting area. They walked around until John had picked a table that was off to the corner in the shade, "Here should be out of the way enough that people won't notice you guys as much."
Dave nodded, "Hopefully."
John frowned, "You guys never told me what happened to you when you were little to make you hate theme parks. I've asked both of you before and you just avoid the question. Yet clearly it was something bad enough to traumatize both of you."
Dave sighed, "Let's just say it happened when I was 9."
