A/N: I've always wanted to make a sequel to 'Parenthood' but I never had a good idea. But I eventually got an idea, and I couldn't wait to start writing. This cuts to when Victor is about to enter high school and follows him, but the characters from 'Parenthood' will still make appearances in this, and play big roles. Now on with the chapter!
Victor stared at his board of memories. It had photos from the past six years of his life. It was full of small and big memories, from his dads' wedding to his eighth-grade trip to Washington D.C. Now that he was entering high school, he knew he would need a bigger board.
Simon knocked on the door. "Come in," Victor called out. Simon opened the door.
"Family meeting," he said. They walked to the living room, where Bram was already waiting for them. He was sitting in one of the armchairs around the TV. Victor and Simon sat on the couch.
"So do you guys want to talk about?" Victor asked.
"We have something we want to talk about with you," Bram said. "It's pretty big, and you don't have to answer this question tonight. Me and your father have been talking about something for a few months, and we figured now would be a good time for us to bring it up."
Bram grabbed something from his chair. He handed Victor an envelope, and Victor swiftly opened it. It didn't take him long to figure out what was inside. "Adoption papers?" Victor asked.
"I love you, Victor," Bram said. "I never saw you as my stepson. I just saw you as my son. So, I was wondering if you would allow me to officially adopt you."
Tears of joy began to stream down Victor's face. Bram walked over to Victor, and they threw their arms around each other. Victor nuzzled into Bram's shoulder. "Yes," Victor said. "I would love it if you adopted me."
Simon joined the hug and they stayed like that for a few minutes. "It will take a few weeks for it to become official, but it will be worth it in the end," Bram said. Victor nods as they pulled away.
"I'm going to go to bed," Victor announced. Simon and Bram allow him to go to his room. Once the door was shut, they figured it was safe.
"You need to tell him soon," Bram whispered.
"I will, I just thought tonight wasn't a good time," Simon whispered. "I wanted tonight to be a joyous occasion, and I didn't want to ruin the mood."
"I understand, but we need to tell him before he figures out in another way," Bram said. Simon nods as Bram pressed a kiss into his cheek. Bram put on some reality TV show, and they cuddled for a while.
