When Monday came around everything was pretty much back to normal between
everyone. Over the weekend, TC and Chris had discussed how they were going
to tell Victor and Cory about them. They thought it best that they
approach Cory and Victor individually. Palermo would have to find out
later about them when they were confident enough to tell him. Chris
approached Cory while they were getting their daily dose of Starbucks
Coffee.
"Cory, you got a minute?" Chris asked.
"Yeah. What's on your mind?" Cory responded.
"Remember on Friday you were saying that TC was acting different because you thought that he had a girlfriend." Chris said.
"Yeah, so?" Cory said. Silence filled the air for all of ten seconds before Cory looked at her friend. "So!" Cory said again.
"Well... he um... you know he... boy is it hot outside today." Chris responded.
"Wait a second. YOU AND TC. Oh my god. I can't believe this." Cory shouted.
"Keep your voice down will you. I don't want the whole world to know." Chris said.
"I just can't believe this. When did this happen?" Cory asked.
"Remember a couple of months ago when you and I got into that argument over the phone calls. Well TC and I started getting a little closer because of that whole situation. Anyways, I was over his house a few weeks ago just hanging out. Next thing I know he and I were kissing. We have pretty much been seeing each other since then." Chris stated.
"Why am I just finding out about this?" Cory asked quizzically.
"I wasn't sure if telling anyone was a good idea." Chris said.
"Not even me. Chris we're best friends. You can trust me with anything." Cory said.
"I know that. I just wanted to keep it under wraps until I figured out what the hell was going on between TC and I. I'm sorry, I should have told you." Chris said.
"Never mind that. At least you told me now and not on your wedding day. So have you two consummated yet?" Cory asked.
"Not yet. I don't want to rush things, so he and I are taking it slow. We both agreed that when we are both ready to take it that far we will. Not a minute sooner." Chris stated.
"This is incredible. I really am happy for you Chris; the both of you. Does Victor know yet?
"TC is suppose to be telling Victor." Chris said.
"What about Tony? Are you guys going to tell him as well?" Cory asked.
"Nah. We are going to hold off on telling Tony until we know for sure that this is what we want. We don't want to tell Tony, have him transfer one of us, and then have the relationship blow up in our face." Chris said.
"Well I want you to keep me informed of everything that goes on in this relationship, including the...you know." Cory said.
"Will do, I promise." Chris said. "I just wonder how TC is going to break the news to Victor. You know guys communicate on a way different level than females. They are always beating around the bush."
"I know right. I bet TC is going to try to make up some cool story to impress Victor with instead of just coming out with it." Cory said.
"MEN!" they both said in unison.
TC and Victor's Conversation
"Hey Victor, hold up for a minute." TC shouted to his friend.
"What's up man? Everything cool?" Victor asked.
"Yeah. I just have to tell you something," replied TC.
"Nothing serious I hope," said Victor.
"Nah. Just thought that I should tell you that Chris and I are dating. We are still working out some of the kinks but so far everything is good." TC said.
"Really, that's cool. Congratulations man. Its about time that you finally got the girl." Victor replied.
"Thanks man. Anyways, are you hungry because I am starving," said TC.
"Thought that you would never ask. Lets go find the girls and grab a bite to eat," Victor replied. The guys caught up with the girls a few blocks from the firehouse. They seemed to be talking about general stuff when the guys intercepted.
"Please tell me that you are hungry." Victor said.
"I don't know about Chris but I am starving," replied Cory.
"Hello beautiful." TC said to Chris before sealing her lip with a kiss. Victor and Cory gave each other the gag face before breaking the two apart.
"Is this what we can expect every time that we hang out with you? A make out feast." Victor asked.
"Most of the time!" Chris and TC said together, then kissed again. The four laughed it off and continued down the street.
