Fitz's POV

I am standing next to my leap master, Dex had just left.

I had a boyfriend.

I had a boyfriend.

IHadABoyfreind.

I heard a cough from behind me.

It was my parents.

"What was that?" My father asked. My mother glared at him.

"What was what?" I asked innocently.

"That." He deadpanned. I blinked pretending that I was oblivious to my homophobic father.

"Hmm?"

"Okay, son. I'm going to blunt with you."

"Alden-" My mother began.

"Be quiet Della. This is my conversation. Why don't you go do Biana's makeup or something." He said, waving my mother off.

"Our daughter is perfectly capable of doing her own makeup." She said snarkily, walking away. I'm sorry. She mouthed to me. Or, at least, that's what I think she mouthed to me.

"What about Sophie?" He asked me.

"What about Sophie?"

"Aren't you dating Sophie?" I snorted.

"No."

"But she's your cognate-"

"You're not dating your cognate."

"I'm not gay."

"No duh, your married."

"Don't kid around with me."

"Hm?"

"Are you gay?"

"What?"

"Are you?"

"Yes- No- I don't know! Maybe!"

"How can you not know?"

"I just don't. I'm trying to figure it out."

"Are you dating Dex?" Everything froze. It took a million years and a second for time to unfreeze.

"Yes." He took a step away from me. And then two. And then he left the room.

"Alden!" I heard my mother call after him, obviously listening at the doorway. She stepped inside the room. She opened her arms to me. I rushed into them. At least I have one good parent.

[Stupid Alden. *I know I made him do that but whatever* I'm sorry I didn't make a floofy fedex entry, but this kinda had to happen for anything else to happen and you know it. Do u want more parent drama or some floof next time? Okee I'm going to leave now. Byeeeeeeeeee.]
