Ronan was laying on the bed he was sharing with Oisin, he was reading one of those stupid comic books he brought over for Oisin, he never did get why Oisin liked them so much. He heard the door creek open and was quite sure that if he looked up he would find Oisin staring at him with guilty eyes. "Clarkey" Oisin said just above a whisper, Ronan nearly didn't hear him "It's fine Oisin, c'mere" Ronan said with a sigh and putting down the comic book and opening his arms for Oisin to cuddle into his chest, "Do you not hate me?" Oisin mumbled into his neck "Never could" Ronan whispered into his ear while carding his fingers through Oisin's unruly brown hair.
Oisin and Ronan came downstairs to find Brendan and Ste drinking tea in the kitchen, "Oh hiya Oisin, who's this then?" Ste asked gesturing at Ronan "I'm Ronan, it's nice to meet you" Ronan said with a charming smile "Well i'm Ste, Oisin are you still able to watch the kids for me later?" Ste asked hopefully "Yeah can Ronan come as well?"
" 'course, just come round to mine with Brendan later, oh and the kids are dead excited Lucas never shuts up about you" Ste said with a chuckle "Lucas?, should I be worried" Ronan said teasingly to Oisin, Oisin just gave Ronan a pointed look hoping he understood what he meant, he did, they could do that just know what the other was thinking by their facial expressions, they once had a conversation using only their eyebrows.
Later that night after Oisin had put Leah and Lucas to bed, he and Ronan were cuddling on Ste's tiny sofa "Why didn't you tell Brendan that you're gay" Ronan questioned innocently
"Because I dont want to fuck this up yet"
"It's not like he would care"
"Ofcourse he'll care! he'll probably kick me out when he finds out!" Oisin exploded
"But he's dating Ste"
"They're just fri- Oisin you are not that stupid, they're on a date right now" Ronan interupted "You really think so?"
"Are you questioning my gaydar?!" Ronan shouted as he pounced on Oisin's chest pinning him to the base of the sofa "Well you've been wrong before" Oisin said with a sly smile "Oh you just keep digging yourself a hole there Jude" Ronan started wiggling his arse on Oisin's chest "Well I suppose you were right about me atleast"
"Oh I dont know you might just have to prove how gay you really are, you've been acting a little straight lately" Ronan said in a more seductive tone "Guess I'll just have to prove it then" Oisin place on hand in Ronan's blonde hair and the other on his hip and roughly pulled him down to his mouth for a passionate kiss.
Oisin jolted awake at the sound of the front door and Brendan and Ste walking in speaking in hushed tones, "Da?" Oisin yawned while trying to remove Ronan from his chest "Yeah kid, why don't you and Ronan just go back to sleep" Brendan whispered "You can sleep in Amy's old room, in there" Ste said while pointing at the bedroom door "Okay, g'night" Oisin mumbled while trying to pull Ronan to his feet.
Brendan and Ste lay beside eachother panting "Bren, thanks for tonight" Ste said with a content smile "I should of done it a long time ago Stephen" Brendan turned on his side and pulled Ste closer to him and tightened his arm around Ste's waist "Well you've made up for it, tonight was probably the best date in the history of dates"
"You need to have your head checked Stephen"
"No it was 'cause it was a date with you and a date with you is by far the best in my book" Ste grinned at Brendan "Whatever you say Stephen" Brendan pressed a gentle chaste kiss to Ste' temple and then slowly drifted into unconsciousness.
Brendan had a banging headache and the noise the kids were making wasn't helping, Lucas and Oisin were pretending to be dinosaurs while Leah and Ronan were dancing to an abnoxious pop song in the kitchen and Ste was no help, he was at the price slice getting stuff in for the breakfast and he was taking ages.
Ste was currently having a very awkward conversation with one John Paul Mcqueen,
"So... you and Brendan work things out then?"
"Yeah, so... you have a baby now?"
"Yeah he's called Matthew, so... since when are you gay"
"Awhile now"
"Right so I better be o- ... I should really be heading home"
"Yup"
"Bye" Ste may or may not have ran home in hopes that he could strangle Brendan Brady for making him go through that, that was torture!.
"Brendan Brady I'm going to ki- He's asleep" Ste had stormed into the flat deadset on killing his boyfriend only to find him fast asleep with Leah reading a story book between his legs and Oisin with Lucas sitting in his lap and Ronan laying on the floor beside them listening intently to her. "What's all this then" Ste asked Oisin quietly "Leah is reading us a story!" Lucas exclaimed only to have Leah shush him "Lucas be quiet or you'll wake daddy Brendan up" Ste smiled at his children and walked into the kitchen deciding to let Brendan off the hook just this once because he was daddy Brendan after all.
