A/N I do not own Glee or Starbucks. I'm sorry for the late update. But better late than never right? Thank you for all of your reviews and favorites! Just letting you know that there's a slightly homophobic comment. I hope you enjoy this chapter too!

It was another day at the work. Marina and Chloe arrived at Starbucks early for their plan. They stepped inside the store and motioned Ethan to follow them. Ethan gave them a curious look before walking over to them. Marina led them to the storage room behind the counter. Softly closing the door, Marina and Chloe turned to Ethan.

"Okay. So, can we ask you a question?" Chloe suddenly said with her serious tone. Ethan didn't know how to respond at her sudden question. Marina stepped closer to him with her 'Snixx jr. face'. Whit all the glaring and the seriousness made Ethan truly terrified.

'Oh, no. I'm going to die here, aren't I?' Ethan thought. Chloe was the first one to notice his petrified expression and tapped Marina's shoulder to let her know that they scared him enough. Marina understood this instantly and her face softened.

"We just wanted to ask you this. No need to be terrified." Marina said stepping back to give him some space in this little storage room. Justin just nodded dumbly, not knowing what to do.

"So, are you gay? Or do you like boys? I know it might be rude to ask those questions so you don't have to answer it if you don't want to. But to let you know, I'm lesbian and she's my girlfriend. We promise that we won't judge you if you're gay." Marina asked him. It was hard to read his expression. When he first heard the question, he looked like he wanted to say something, but then after few seconds of uncomfortable silence, he just shook his head.

"You don't like boys?" Chloe asked him again unsure of his answer. Ethan opened and shut his mouth several times before he answered.

"No. I'm straight. And homos are disgusting." He said and stormed out of the storage room. Surprised at his reaction, Marina and Chloe just stood at the storage room for a few more seconds before getting out of the room.

…

Justin arrived at the store, excited to see Ethan. 'Is he always that good looking?' Justin thought as he walked towards the counter.

"Hey Ethan! How are you?" Justin said cheerfully to Ethan. Ethan looked up from what he was doing and his dark brown eyes met Justin's chocolate brown eyes. Ethan's eyes were hesitant for a second and then it went stoic.

"I'm good." Ethan replied cold. Shocked at his attitude, Justin flinched a little. Justin was confused. He was very cheery person from what he saw yesterday. Shanking off his surprised expression, he smiled at him. 'Maybe he had a bad morning.' He thought.

As they worked Justin never got the chance to talk to Ethan. Ethan would always have some kind of excuse and get away from him. As he continued to act that way, Justin got frustrated. And his heart broke a little every time. It didn't helped the situation when Marina and Chloe did all day was softly smile at him (mostly Chloe did the smiling and Marina just stared at him with less annoyed look than normal) and occasionally throwing glares at Ethan that he couldn't quiet comprehend.

Decided that he had enough of this when it was almost end of his shift, he went straight up to Ethan. As he was reaching for him, Marina grabbed by his arm and dragged him away to the storage room.

"What are you doing, M?" Justin asked angrily pulling his arm out of her grasp. She was silent for a moment before she spoke again.

"I don't think it's a good idea to hit on him." Marina said. Since now she knows that Ethan is straight and hates gay people, it was her duty to talk to Justin about it. She knows that it's not wise to hit on straight people and even more if they're homophobic.

"You teased me all the time yesterday. Why do you suddenly change your opinion? Huh?" Justin said clearly annoyed. Marina considered her options. She could either tell him the truth or make something up. 'Shit, what do I tell him?'

"He's straight and homophobic." Chloe said, suddenly appearing from behind. Chloe winked at Marina and Marina felt sudden relief and thankfulness. Even though she thinks of herself as a brave, fierce person (Chloe thinks she's just a big softy but she disagrees), she didn't think she could say that aloud to her brother.

"You're lying. He was nice to all of us yesterday. He's a nice guy." Justin said angrily. He didn't want to believe what Chloe said.

"Well, we talked to him earlier. We asked if he is gay or likes boys, then he threw homophobic comment to us and said he is straight." Marina said with her usual annoyed tone. But on the inside, Marina really cared about her little brother.

After hearing this, Justin felt like the room was crashing down. His first crush happened to be homophobic. Great. Justin didn't even knew he was crying until Chloe handed him a napkin. He cried for a good few minutes, then he ran out of the room.

Outside, Ethan was cleaning some stuff. Justin glanced at him one last time, and he was out of the café. He ran. He felt like his lung was burning and muscles ached. By the time he reached the front door, sun was almost set. Since nobody was in the house, he went straight to his room and closed his bedroom door. He sat on his bed and started to think about what happened.

'Well, my first crush is homophobic. There's nothing more to say.' He thought bitterly. But it hurts. It hurts him a lot. His heart ached. He cried himself to sleep.

…

When Santana and Brittany returned from the work, they called the kids down for dinner. When Justin didn't come down, they went up stair. They found sleeping Justin in his bed with visible dried tear path on his face. They became instantly worried.

…

"It's the best solution, right?" Santana asked as she climbed on the bed. They asked Marina about what happened during dinner. After they heard what happened, they discussed about it and came up with the solution.

"I hope so." Brittany replied and pulled Santana on top of her. "But we'll get over this together like we always did."

Santana smiled and captured her wife's lips between her own. "Together. Always."

…

Next morning, everyone was gathered around the table. Justin was awfully quiet and stared at his lap. Marina and Chloe were just eating their breakfast. Brittany decided to break the ice.

"Kids, I heard what happened yesterday. And we came up with the solution. World is a scary place. We're your parents and we need to be sure of your safety. So I suggest all of you to quit the job. I know it might sound overprotective, but we don't want to risk our children's safety."

"What about my car?" Marina asked her moms. Santana rolled her eyes at her daughter's comment. 'Of course she would ask about her car first. She's my daughter after all.' Santana thought.

"We'll buy you a car. It wasn't my plan, but since this happened, we'll have to buy you a car. You worked for 2 days. That's a progress, right?" Santana said. Through out the whole conversation, Justin was quiet. Brittany was slightly worried about him, but she decided to give him some time.

Rest of the morning went in blur. Teens went to school after finishing their breakfast (Though Justin barely touched his food), and Santana and Brittany went to work. They just hoped that their kids, especially Justin, go through this well.
