Eddie and Steve have been dating for three months when Eddie introduces Steve to Wayne. Afterwards, Steve is just like, "Oh, wow. Wow. Oh god, he hates me. He hates me, doesn't he?"
"What the hell are you talking about?" Eddie asks. "He shook your hand and invited you to stay for dinner."
"Yeah, god. It's so obvious. He hates me," Steve stresses. "Do you think he's going to make you break up with me? He hated me so much. Geez."
"I've dated a lot of girls, Eddie. That's how dads act when they hate you," He swears. "Fuck, I gotta get out of here. Eddie, I have to go."
"Steve, calm down," Eddie starts. "He doesn't - don't go out the - yep, out the window. There you go. Okay...Bye. Love you!"
Eddie waits two full minutes before he walks out of his bedroom back into the rest of the house and asks, "What the hell, Wayne? You hate my boyfriend?"
"I never said that," Wayne scoffs. "I like the kid. Said he was good for ya. Does that sound like I hate 'em?"
"No," Eddie breaths out. "No, I knew he was making no sense. God, Steve is so weird. I love him, you know?"
"Told him that I loved him," He continues, grinning from behind his hair. "Told him when he was climbing out the window."
"No, I don't think he's realized what I said yet. When do you think-"
There's an insistent knock at the door.
Wayne grabs his keys to leave, "Probably about now, I bet."
