Emmett never falters in coming out to his parents and I look to my own. My mother looks proud as ever and my father shows no sign of disgust or anger.
His parents listen as he tells them of always knowing and not meaning to hide it. That he thought it just be easier. He tells of wanting to tell them after graduation but he got the scholarship. Wanted to tell them after college but was drafted.
"It seems such a thing to sacrifice for a career." His mother tells him. "To hide who you are, to hide your love for Edward."
"I know that now, and now I am willing to sacrifice it all for him."
