Collins was walking down the staircase to go outside for some fresh air when he heard the loft door opening and loud footsteps coming down the stairwell.

"Collins come on. You know we were just teasing." Roger said as he put his arm over Collins shoulder.

"Yeah Collins you know we love you; especially Angel." Maureen said and then winked in Angel's direction, who was now sporting a light pink tint in her cheeks.

"Come on sweetie, were going to get some ice cream" Mimi didn't even give him a chance to protest she just started pulling him toward the ice cream shop down by town square.

When they reached the ice cream shop they all got sundaes and went to sit in the park across the street.

"SOOOOOO, Collins do you know when you start teaching again?" Mark asked trying to start a conversation.

"About a week ago, why?" Collins said sarcastically taking a bite out of his ice cream amused at Marks attempt at a conversation, but touched all the same.

"Oh" he looked down at his ice cream.

"Collins, sweetie I'm sorry for making fun of your lack of charisma, we all are aren't we guys" Mimi asked the others. They all nodded and Angel leaned over and kissed Collins cheek, which Collins blushed in reply.

"See baby. We are telling the truth" Angel said as she leaned against him.

"You guys I cant help it. I was born this way" Collins said pouting as he crossed his arms over his chest.

"Just like you were: born with asthma, you were born with allergies to wheat, you mean like that" Roger asked as he and Mark kept counting off things on their hands.

"Yes, except those things are more serious" Collins said just as he started coughing.

"Oh, you ok honey" Maureen asked looking away from her lover to give a concerned look to her friend.

"Don't worry (cough) about it (cough)" Collins said taking out his inhaler and taking a deep drag of it.

"Just another asthma attack, no biggie" he said as he put away his inhaler and pulled Angel back to him.

"Well, okay. You guys me and Joann are gonna go get ready for the recital tonight" Maureen said standing up.

"Later" "See you guys later" And Maureen and Joann walked out the door down the street.

"You guys me and Mark and Mimi are gonna go get ready for tonight okay?" Roger said as the rest of them got up and started walking toward the door.

"Bye Angel. Bye Collins" and then it was just 'Sir Blush-es a lot' and the most gorgeous drag queen ever.

"I think we should head home and get ready too, Ang" And then they walked out the door hand in hand.

A/N: Okay, just so all of you know the asthma comment came from me, because I just found out I have asthma; and the wheat thing, my friend's older sister is allergic to wheat. Sorry for the wait. New chapter coming. R/R. Thanks!
