☀️There Can Only Be ONE Best Boy☀️ - Total Drama Viewer Reacts to Disventure Camp Season 1 Episode 4 “Slip N Slide”
I decided, for both to give my followers less of spoilers and for some flare, I would cheaply draw over some screenshots.
For the Purple Team's reward, they got a waterproof tent. But they neglected the fireproof tent as a result, and the producers weren't careful with last challenge.
Nick would be, understandably, terrified of the place, and Alec would be like "Wow, this is an improvement" but look at it so stoically.
So, welcome back to Arson Camp!
Let us continue with the chaos!
Fiore's chilling by the fires, probably writing some AO3 fanfics.
What fandom would Fiore be in? I'm curious.
I feel like this six year old would be into something violent like Mortal Kombat.
"A girl like you should not be awake at this hour."
*looks over at my clock*
Lilly you don't have to call me out like that.
"I don't even listen to my own mom and she thinks she can control me?!"
If you weren't six, I would say slay and tell them what's for...
But you're six. So...
"If you were feeling safe, I've got bad news for you."
Welp, Lilly's gone. I called it.
OH GOD NO!!!
WHY?!?!??!?! HOW DOES THIS BENEFIT YOU!??!??!?!?!
I feel like this was my fault because I made the fire joke.
Fiore was like, "You know, I had this weird feeling that some viewer named AnalyzGolden was watching us and she told me to burn shit. And now I suddenly have the urge to do it."
Goddammit me.
What next? The characters in that heading get eliminated today?
The subtitle again. I CAN'T with these parenthesis XD
(I have subtitles on because sometimes I mishear stuff when I watch stuff the first time)
"I'm not going to be part of this argument."
*holds back a laugh* Alec's actually so based for that.
Y'all want less DRAMA in TOTAL DRAMA?
Simple answer.
You just walk away from it.
"I think I know who did it." *Among Us Music*
*chokes on breath*
NO. NO.
DID I HEAR THAT RIGHT?!?!
*rewinds*
NO THEY ACTUALLY DID THAT. OMG.
THEY MADE THE JOKE FOR ME.
I was making several Among Us jokes last episode.
I feel like I've become some overlord and they somehow hear me and do what I tell them.
"For some reason Golden is telling me I'm very SUS... huh, wonder what that means."
Fiore if you can hear me. I didn't say you had slay pass. I never said that.
The only one I gave slay pass was Grett.
You have to earn yours.
"Lill?! What in queen's name did you do?!" *sound effect*
Okay. Now it's getting a bit crazy.
"I don't think Lill would do this to us."
THANK YOU. THANK YOU ASHLEY.
"It's about psychology in different kinds of people."
"It says here that people who enter reality competitions and get tempted by money have the tendency to become more ruthless and emotionally manipulative to their advantage, derailing their personalities. If you'd like some examples from the many seasons of Total Drama, I'd be happy to give you an analogy."
"What makes you think I wouldn't want to read it?"
You're six.
"Well... fair point."
Okay. I guess that's not a point.
"It's a drawing. My son drew it for me."
Alec has a family?
I mean he did look older, I admit, but I didn't think anyone here had kids.
So is Alec in this game to help his family with funds? We got another one.
'List of Motives:'
'Fiore: Abandoned'
'Ashley: Save Farm'
'Jake: Help Grandma'
'Tom: Sus'
'Nick: Prove Himself'
'Alec: Family'
'Everyone else: ???'
"I'm just as confused as you."
I have NO IDEA what happened AT ALL. It totally wasn't me who flipped. I was sure Drew was the impostor!
"Then what if Drew voted for himself?"
He said 'Fuck this shit I'm out'.
"He knew things I didn't want anyone to know."
"I just can't tell anyone about my hobbies, okay?!"
"As long as Grett doesn't tell either of them I should be fine."
Hey Grett. Maybe you should tell Jake something. Just a thought.
...
WAIT I SAID THAT AS A JOKE, HOLD ON-
"For some reason I have the urge to tell Jake something. Huh, wonder who this Golden Voice is."
"I voted for Gabby because the boys told me to."
Was it Dan that suggested Gabby??
*looks back*
Actually no it wasn't. I was gonna call hypocrisy, but that'd be me complaining about something that's not there. Okay.
Alright I won't bully him. This time.
"Nobody can be trusted here."
"Nobody can be trusted here-anyway, Tom, who never shows his face, can I trust that you'll vote with me?"
"I'm disappointed that Dan voted for me."
Oh, you're actually affected by that. Wow.
Okay, here you go Gabby. You can have slay pass. ⚔️
Use it for whatever you want to eliminate with. If you want to use it on Dan, go ahead. I don't care if he goes tbh.
I just realized most of my favs are on the same team XD
Oooh, swimming episode!
Tom is STILL in his suit XD
"Hey uh, Tom, the sun can't reach you if you're underwater. I don't think you need to be wearing that. You don't want to get your normal clothes wet, right?"
"Eh I never found use for a swimsuit anyway! Besides! The sun will dry them up quickly!"
"Doesn't that go against what you told us earlier?!"
"My relationship with the sun does not concern you! No it's not toxic what are you talking about?!"
But he's not wearing the hoodie anymore! That's an improvement!
I feel like we're gonna get a Tom face reveal at some point, right?
Oooh.
I didn't think there would be a cabin.
And a phone to call home? PLEASE tell me they take advantage of this and we learn more about these characters homelives!
"You're not yelling and talking nonsense... I like it."
Grett. You're so awful. I love you.
I have such BAD TASTES for favorites, don't I?
(Idk who the fan favorites/hated characters are)
That's not an english subtitle.
...I'm not gonna say anything further than that, cause I'm scared that the joke in my head is very offensive.
"What did you expect? Nobody likes you and everyone thinks you're crazy."
I... I mean technically she's right. Doesn't make it right to rub salt in the wound though.
I still love you Gabby. Don't worry.
"Have you lied to me too?"
"Of course."
Oh WOW.
I did NOT expect her to just be blunt and honest like that.
Why is a VILLAIN character so honest about what they do? That's such a unique character trait. I love how they're using it.
"For what it's worth, I believe you."
"You have no reason to lie. I've known you for a few days and you always put this alliance first."
THANK YOU ASHLEY FOR BEING THE SMART ONE ON THIS TEAM.
Fiore struggling to paddle, omg
"My hands are killing me. You think you can row for me if I pay you?"
Nick...
Nick, I'm waiting patiently for your character development. You better deliver cause you've annoyed me this episode and last episode. Jake's gonna take crown for best boy if you're not careful.
Also, she's a KID and can't even hold one paddle right.
"I'm already tired of always eating fish."
Yeah, that has to get tedious after awhile, especially if you guys are THAT hungry and have no choice.
I hate seafood. I wouldn't survive.
"What are you craving?"
"Chinese takeout. I always order that at home."
My sibling actually loves Chinese as well... I'm a Mexican person, though.
"There's a restaurant I live near that'll knock your socks off. We should go when this is over."
TOM. Are you... ASKING HIM OUT?!
"Hey, your eyes... they're pretty. I never noticed since you've always got that hood on."
AWWW AND THE RETURNED FLIRT?!
THE BLUSH, OMG
...yeah I kinda hope you kiss now.
This is how you make relationships Total Drama. You meet. You get along. And you be cute.
And I am waiting for this to go horribly wrong cause in shows like this, nobody gets a happy ending.
Except Mike & Zoey I guess.
"Maybe them fighting is good news."
"If we found popcorn it would be a fun movie to watch. I'm just saying."
"Honestly, a million dollars would make my life so much better."
"What would you spend the money on?"
"I want to study fashion design. Just don't have the time or money. Back home, I have to juggle two jobs that barely keep me afloat."
That has to be THE most relatable Young Adult experience ever.
I hate that I have a privilege from my parents to go to a college I don't even like.
Add that to the list...
'Ellie: College Finance'
"*Ellie clicks the check*
*Spawns an ad on USAA*
OH NO! THEY LIED!!!
Ellie's real fear is her finances XD"
I PREDICTED THIS LAST EPISODE AND I DIDN'T EVEN REALIZE IT
"Dear lord up above, why must you forsaken me on a canoe with this wretched child?!"
THAT'S WHAT I'M SAYING!!
Stop hating Dan, me. He didn't do anything.
And two seconds later I laugh at his expense 😂
"It's not the first time I've done this."
"Back in my day we had to canoe rapids just to get to school!"
"Back in grade school-"
Oh my god and she took my joke.
"The objective of the game is to knock your opponent into the lake."
*shoves Dan in the lake*
"Hey you guys talk about this Golden voice lately, I think she's bullying me. Why you bullying me?"
Do something and don't be sexist.
"First showdown will be Tom vs Alec"
If Tom loses this I'm in firm disbelief.
He has ninja skills.
Why is Jake the only one cheering and supporting his teammate?
This boy is precious. Look at him. He's PRECIOUS.
"Next showdown: Grett vs Ellie"
Sorry Ellie. I do like you, I swear.
THAT WAS A ONE SHOT. GEEZ.
"Golden told me to SLAY. So I slayed!" 💅
"Next up: Gabby vs Lill"
Gabby for the win?
Oh she's GOING THERE
"You forgot: Golden gave ME slay pass too!!"
Aw, she lost.
I guess that makes sense though cause it would be too easy.
"Hey that's not fair! She used Gabby's duel stick!"
"Eh it looked painful though so I'll allow it."
Chris McLean taught you well.
"Next showdown: Dan vs Ashley"
Kick his ass, Ashley.
GREAT. XD
OMG are you kidding me?! XD
"We too are aware of Golden's presence! So we decided to entertain her with pinning the best boys against each other!"
"Sorry Golden, but here in Disventure Camp, THERE CAN ONLY BE ONE BEST BOY."
OH GOD HE'S PISSED
NUT SHOT
I REPEAT. WE HAVE A NUT SHOT.
"Jake scores! The Teal Team win Immunity and reward!"
Welp, guess that's that. The show has decided.
Unless Nick stays, which is pretty likely, so.
FOR NOW, Jake has my crown as best boy. We stan a guy who has no shame in denying another guy the right to have kids.
"See that's my own personal true personality reveal Golden! I'm an asshole too, just like Grett! Don't you love me?!"
Yes. Yes I do.
"Listen Nick, can we talk?"
Yes. Please talk. Please work things out.
"I think I've heard enough this morning to decide who I'm voting for."
"You don't have to behave like that, Nick!"
Why is Ashley the most reasonable character on this team?!
TELL HIM OFF.
"At least give Lill a chance!"
"I've already made my decision. Cheers."
Now I have even less regrets siding with Jake over you.
"I think we should vote together and take control of the team."
And here's where Alec and Ellie become swing votes.
Ellie's just the outlier here. "Um... I didn't ask to be a part of the villains team, why am I put on it? I didn't do anything wrong!"
I didn't put you there, Ellie. That was not me this time.
"I feel like I can be myself around them."
Ellie meanwhile, "WHERE'S THE EXIT?! SAVE MEEEEEE"
"Lill, it genuinely frightens me that you handle kids."
Just shut up.
"If I had a kid, I wouldn't let em anywhere near you."
"And I never will because SOMEONE busted my balls today!"
Ashley, once again, being the most reasonable one here.
'LILL'
Yeah, yeah, we know.
'FIORE'
'FIORE'
'NICK'
O_O
OH. GOD.
'NICK'
I-
I-
I FEEL LIKE THIS WAS MY FAULT.
I SHOULD NOT HAVE PUT HIM IN THE HEADING.
I CAUSED THIS.
"Because you're one of the worst in the challenges. Also, I can't stand you."
Wow. It really was that petty.
Tom, what ninja shit are you doing this time?
Pfft. He's a bad spy.
"Uh, I am standing right here and can see you!"
Alright, that was Episode 4...
Damn. I shouldn't have put Nick in the heading. I cursed him and caused his elimination.
I thought they were setting up a lot of character development for him cause I felt like he had an interesting story with his parents and wanting to prove himself...
But no. He did absolutely none of that and continued to be a spoiled lazy entitled snob up till his elimination.
And like... sure? If you need early boots?
Why couldn't it be Dan? Smh
This episode took what I said last episode and said "UH UH. You can only have one best boy as your choice. That's the rule." And forced them to fight for that position.
But if we had to choose between the two, I can't argue with Jake.
Idk who the favorites/hated characters are, and I feel like I have bad taste. One's an actual bitch and very open about it. But you know what? Gabby and Jake are sweethearts who deserve to be stanned.
Gabby is fun. She's full of personality. People are outcasting her for no reason and it's sad. I want Gabby to use her slay pass and revolt. Girl has done nothing wrong in her entire life.
And Jake? Come on. He's precious. He's a sweetheart. Look at him. And he takes no shit apparently. Man has done nothing wrong in his entire life.
I feel like Lilly's going next just cause she knows too much. But if that leaves Ashley alone to be the saving grace of the team till the merge I can't argue. I like her quite a bit.
I also like that Ellie and Alec are doing stuff now. Oh how the tables have turned.
They both have motives that are quite empathetic. It's so nice.
Why you working with the demon child though?
"I didn't ask to be put in hell with her Golden! I just wanted to make fashion! LET ME OUT!!!"
#SaveEllie
If you guys want me to continue these reactions, be sure to let me know.
i have started the fanfiction where Alec and Nick adopt Fiore, but I haven't finished it yet. I wanted to write a fic of Alec and Nick that takes place before Fiore shows up (yes this is an excuse to write a freaky alenick fanfic just give in to my delulu)
anyways enjoy please
disclaimer: smut, swearing
I lie awake in my and Nick's bed, gripping the blankets tightly in my hands. I don't know what my problem is tonight but I'm just so... so...
God, I don't want to say it...
Horny. I'm just do God damn horny right now.
I reach one hand down under the blanket and start rubbing my bulge over my shorts, trying to lessen the sting of desire flooding through my body. I bite my lip and try not to whimper, so as not to wake Nick.
Except he wasn't asleep. He turns over in the bed and whispers, "Alec?"
I stop touching myself and bring my hand back up. "Y-yeah?"
"Are you awake?"
"Mhm..." I moan under my breath.
He scoots up behind me and wraps his arms and legs around me, nuzzling his face into my back. My breathing has turned into shaky panting now.
"Sexyback, are you horny right now?" he asks me. I nod my head voraciously as his hand travels down my stomach.
He caresses my hip with his thumb. "I can help with that." He dips his fingers slowly under my shorts and boxers and wraps his hand around my cock. He slowly starts pumping his hand up and down, making me moan.
He starts to go faster and faster, my cock slick with precum. "God, Nick... mmphh..." My moans and whimpers grow louder as he goes faster.
I feel myself about to cum, but Nick stops and takes his hand from my cock.
I reach up and grab his arm. "No... why'd you-ungh-stop...?"
He reaches his other arm up and caresses my cheek with his hand. Then he leans close to me and whispers in my ear, "I want you to fuck me, baby. With all your might." I could feel his hard cock up against my tailbone. Mine was just as hard. "Fuck me like there's no tomorrow."
I grab his other arm and flip him over onto his back, landing me on top of his, his wrists pinned to my pillow. "Don't have to tell me twice." I reach my face down and start kissing his neck.
I hear him exhale in delight. My mouth works in intricate movements up and down his neck. I bite down on his skin where his pulse is, making my mark to show the world his heart is mine.
A low whimper escapes the back of his throat as he wriggles his arms around, trying to break free from my grasp. "Alec... mmm..."
I break one of my hands free, keeping him pinned with my other hand. I take my thumb and caress his jaw. I lean down and press a quick kiss to his lips, then reach my hand up his shirt.
I trace the lines of his abs and hold his hip in my hand. Eventually I let his arm go for a split second so I could lift his tank top off, then throw the shirt on the floor. He tries to grab at me with his free hands, but I quickly pin him back down.
I lean down and whisper in his ear, "Be a good boy and keep those arms down."
"o...k," he whimpers, throwing his head back against the pillow. "Please, Alec. Fuck me."
"Patience, baby, patience."
He lets out a low moan. I just smirk and slip my hand under the hem of his underwear. He always sleeps in his underwear. I pull them off swiftly and throw them on the floor with his shirt.
I rub my thumb over the tip of his cock, before taking my ring and middle fingers and sticking them in Nick's mouth. A low moan came from him, causing a vibration against my fingers. I felt his tongue scraping along the underside of my fingers as he sucked on them.
Finally, I took my fingers out of his mouth, a trail of spit connecting my fingers to his tongue. We made eye contact and God, was his face red.
I take my fingers and tease Nick by rubbing outside his hole. He arches his back a little and whimpers.
“That’s right, baby. Let me hear those beautiful noises,” I say, before pushing my fingers in.
He moans quietly as I work my fingers inside him, preparing him for what’s to come. I eventually add a third finger inside, and pump into him even harder. His moans start to grow louder.
There, he seems to be prepared. I take my fingers out of his hole and put them in my mouth. I suck on them for a second, then take them out and wink at Nick.
He just looks at me in pure pleasure, panting like a dog. I remove my clothes as well. I rub my hand along my cock, still slick with precum. I take hold of it and position myself against him.
He spreads his thighs open even wider, allowing me access to rock his world. I push my tip against his hole, slowly starting to push it in.
Suddenly, I stop short. I’m gonna make him beg for my cock.
He looks at me, confused and waiting for the ultimate moment of pleasure. “Why are you stopping?”
I smirk and say, “Tell me how bad you want it.”
Nick sighs. “Please, Alec. Put it in.”
“I wanna hear you beg.”
“Alec, I’m not b-begging…”
“Then you’re not getting your reward…” I pushed the tip fully in.
“A-Alec…”
“Beg.”
A moment of silence from Nick. Then: “Please, Alec! I need it! I need it like I need air! Please just fuck me! I want your cock inside me and I want to be filled with your cum!”
I smile, heat flowing through my body. I lean down and give him a kiss. “That’s just what I wanted to hear.”
I jam my cock into him. He moans loudly as I pull back out and thrust it back in. I start to speed up.
I interlock my fingers with his, leaving his other hand free. He reaches down and starts jerking himself.
The bed is creaking loudly as our bodies move in stereo, his moans adding more noise to the room. His fingers are wrapped around my hand so tightly, his fingers started to turn white.
His moans turn into shrieks, loud enough to wake the whole neighborhood. Poppy must be worried; it sounds like her dad is dying in here.
He might as well be with the way he’s screaming. I caress his cheek with my thumb and say, “You’re so loud.”
“You’re so big… bigger than my hole… you’re stretching it out…” he says, whimpers in between every sentence.
I lean down and whisper in his ear, “You can take it.” I nibble on his earlobe and continue thrusting. “You’re such a good boy, taking this dick for me.”
“Ahh… mmpfh…nghh” Nick moans. He can’t even get coherent words out.
He jerks himself faster and shouts, “Ugh, Alec, I’m gonna cum!”
I place my hand over his on his cock and continue pumping my dick into him. “Don’t worry, baby. I got you. Go ahead.”
Nick lets out a loud moan as cums everywhere. Some of his cum splatters onto my face and I swipe it up with my thumb, then lick it up.
I start licking up his cum, still thrusting, almost on the brink of my orgasm. “Good boy, Nick.” I caressed his hip bone as I licked him all over.
He moaned loudly. “Alec… inside me. Cum inside me, please!”
Without a seconds hesitation, I let myself go. I feel as my cock pumps out cum into his hole, the orgasm feeling like heaven. I even let out a little moan myself. Nick whimpers.
As my orgasm finishes, I pull out, Nick moaning in the process. I watch as my seed drips from his hole onto the sheets. He’s panting heavily, a tight grip on his cock.
“Alec, I need more.”
I bring my finger up to his lips and shush him. “Don’t worry, I have something extra special planned for you.
I grab his arms and flip him around to lay on top of me. He looks down at me.
I put my hands on his shoulders and pushed his head down near my cock. “Suck,” I said. “Suck like you’re a vampire craving blood.”
He didn’t even think twice. He wraps his hands around my cock and then his mouth. My cock is enveloped in the sweet warmth of his mouth.
I whimper and moan as his head bobs, his saliva dripping down my cock. I feel his tongue sliding up and down my dick, licking and tasting any piece of skin he can find.
He takes on of his hands and grabs my balls in his hands, starting to caress them. That’s what got me.
I grabbed his head in my hands and started bucking my hips up, forcing him to deep throat my cock. His hands grip the sheets and his eyes roll back in his head. A smile forms on his face while I thrust, both of us moaning as loud as our vocal cords would allow.
His moans caused my cock to vibrate, which was an absolutely amazing sensation. Now my eyes are rolling back in my head. I feel him gag on my cock, but he kept taking it with no problem.
One loud moan from me, and my cum is sliding down his throat. When my orgasm finishes, I place my hips back down on the mattress and Nick slides his mouth off my cock.
I watch as he swallows my cum, then licks his lips and teeth. God, I’ve never seen a hotter man.
He looks up at me and takes my cock back in his hands. “Alec, can I ride?” he asks, a pleading look in his eyes.
I reach up and run my fingers through his beautiful golden hair. “Please, baby. Make me cum. Please, make me cum for the third time!”
He smirks and straddles me, right on my dick. I felt as my dick went up his hole. I whimper quietly.
He runs his finger down my chest and starts to grind on me. Both of our moans fill the room, creating an echo off the walls. The neighbors must think there’s a cat giving birth in the house.
He starts grinding faster, throwing his head back and sticking his tongue out. He was enjoying this just as much as I am.
I place my hands on his curvy hips as they move across my body. He places his hands on my chest over my nipples, moaning loudly.
I take ahold of his cock and caress the tip with my thumb. I can tell he’s about to cum.
I jerk him hard and fast, his moans making me harder. Finally, he screams and lets go, cumming all over me. I leave my hand underneath his tip to catch some of his cum in my hand. He continues to grind as I lick his cum off my hand. My cock is burning with heat; I’m ready to cum at any second.
Then he starts bouncing on it. As he goes up and down on my cock, I can’t help but let out a loud, long scream and pump my cum in him.
He stops moving his body and let himself be filled to the brim. He takes himself off me with one small whimper, laying next to me on the bed.
We lay there in silence except for the sounds of our heavy breathing. I turn my head to look at Nick, and he’s already looking at me with love in his eyes.
He reaches his hand up and takes my chin in his hand, then leans in and locks our lips. When he pulls away from the kiss he says, “I love you, Alec.”
“I love you, Nick.”
bro my sillies 😭♥️
Hehe gay British sex
Anyways hope you guys liked this one I stayed up extra late to finish it and I’m gonna go to bed now. Good night and I love you all !!! <333
I’m too lazy to write this little beginning piece that I always write but to sum this one up, Alec is sick, and Nick can’t really be around him but still takes care of him because he's gay for him <3
Enjoy, love you all <333
Disclaimer: swearing, emetophobia warning, mention of abuse
I groan as I get up from my knees on the bathroom floor. Jesus, where the hell did I catch the flu?
I wipe my mouth off with the back of my hand and flush the toilet, then quickly wash my hands. I adjust my glasses on my nose. I hold my arms, rubbing them quickly; Nick left the windows open to air out the germs from the house and to help with my excruciating body heat. But now I'm freezing, and the chills decided to pay my immune system a visit.
Oh, I just love being sick. Just makes my entire day!
As I walk out of the bathroom, slowly and my hands tightly gripping my arms, I see Nick in the kitchen cooking something. I stop and he looks up at me.
He smiles and says, "Throw up again?"
I just nod.
He shakes his head and says, "Go rest, baby. I'm making you something to eat. Just get comfortable and I'll be right in."
I don't even nod this time; I just groan and amble back to my bedroom slowly.
When I get into my room, I slowly place myself on the bed and pull my blanket up over my shoulders. I curl up into a ball on my side and lay there, shivering.
I turn over onto my back and exhale. I reach for my phone on my nightstand and turn it on.
I raise an eyebrow at the single notification that popped up on my screen about 5 minutes ago. It was a message on Instagram from @i.hate.nuns. Fiore.
I click on it and my phone screen opens to my Instagram inbox. The message simply states "Help me. Please."
I heart speeds up in my chest. I quickly type back, "Fiore? What's wrong?"
I place my phone face down on my blanket and stare up at my ceiling blankly. I'm actually worried about Fiore, even though she betrayed me in the season 1 finale of Disventure Camp. This must be something serious. God, I haven't seen her in so long. I wonder how much older she is.
My phone buzzes. I pick it up and read the next message: "My parents are abusing me. Help."
I stare at the message in disbelief. My hands shaking, I message back, "What are they doing to you?"
"They're forcing me to make dinner every night and do everything for them like a maid. They're also hitting me even if I do what they tell me to do."
I gasp quietly. "When's the next time you have school?"
"Tomorrow."
"Okay. Here's what I want you to do. I want you to pack some important stuff in your school backpack and bring it with you. I want you to go home with a friend and stay there until I can come to get you. Sound good?"
"Wait." A pause before her next message. "Are you saying you're going to adopt me?"
"Yeah."
"You mean you're going to fly here to the US to come get me tomorrow?"
"Not tomorrow. I have the flu, but once I'm completely better, I'll be there to get you."
"Seriously?"
"Trust me, Fiore. I know I was a terrible father to my own son but I promise me and Nick can be better parents to you than your own."
"Wait. Nick from season 1 of Disventure Camp?"
"Yeah. It's a long story."
"I don't care. You promise you'll come for me?"
"Cross my heart and hope to die."
"Thank you. Thank you so much."
"You're welcome. Anything to keep you safe."
She didn't message me back after that.
I place my phone back down on my bedside table and stare up at my ceiling, then let out a massive sigh. The motion made me nauseous but it's nothing too bad.
My doorknob slowly turns, and the door pushes open a crack. Nick peeks in, a small tray in his hand.
I look up at him and smile. He pushes the door open and smiles back at me.
"Oh, I thought you were asleep, baby! I brought you some toast and a little herbal tea. It's not much but it might help."
He places the tray at the foot of my bed. I blow him a kiss and he pretends to catch it, holding his curled-up fist to his chest, blushing. My smile grows even larger, and I reach for the tray.
I sit up and pull it into my lap. I look over at my nightstand and grab the empty water glass. "Do you mind filling this up for me?"
I hold the glass out to him, and he slowly walks in and takes it.
"Oh, come on now, I don't bite!"
"Yeah, but your sickness is contagious!" He laughs. "I'll be back quickly."
He walks out of the room, as I pick up one of the pieces of toast from the tray and take a small bite.
Nick quickly comes back with the glass of water, complete with ice. Oh, he must pity me or something. He walks over and places it on my bedside table.
He rests the back of his hand against my forehead, as I lift the toast to my mouth and take another bite.
"Jesus Christ, you're burning up! I'm going to get you a cool towel to put on that giant fucking forehead of yours."
I just laugh. He walks out of the room, and I continue to eat my toast.
I hear the sound of running water coming from the bathroom. Nick comes back into the room, folding a washcloth into a rectangle. He pushes my chest back a little and carefully places the cloth against my forehead.
"There. Does that feel better?" he says, holding the cloth against my forehead.
I didn't even notice I was sweating until the coldness of the cloth ran through my body. "Yeah, actually. Thank you."
"Anything for you, baby. Speaking of which, do you need anything else?"
"A kiss would be nice but I don't want to get you sick."
"Aw, baby. I'm going to fulfill that wish as many times as you want when you're feeling all better. You're going to never know what it feels like to be unloved ever again."
I blush. "Aw, stop. You're too sweet. I love you so much."
"I love you too, baby. Try and get some rest, okay?"
He starts to leave the room, but Fiore's messages come to my mind. "Wait," I say, reaching out to him.
He turns around and raises an eyebrow at me. "What's up?"
I hesitate for a second. "Remember... remember Fiore?"
Nick rolls his eyes. "Oh God, why are you mentioning her?"
He sounds upset. Better make this quick. "Well... she just messages me on Instagram saying her parents are abusing her, and I told her I'd come get her and adopt her. I was just wondering... is that okay?"
Nick's scowl drops quickly. He takes a deep breath and says, "It's going to take a little getting used to, but I think I can handle it. No matter what she did in season 1, she doesn't deserve to go through that. She's just a kid. You told her about us, right?"
"Yeah. Why?"
"I just wanted to make sure she was okay with me being around before I agreed."
"Oh, no. She had the same reaction as you did when I told her about you."
"Really. Wow."
"Mhm."
"When are you planning to pick her up?"
"As soon as I'm better."
"Wait, but don't we live in different countries? How are you going to get her?"
"I'm going to take a plane, obviously."
"Am I coming with you?"
"No, you stay here. It'll cost less money without your plane tickets involved."
"Tickets plural?"
"There and back? Dur."
"Oh, shut up. You know I can pay for everything."
"You don't have to. Plus, someone has to stay home and take care of Poppy."
"True." He looks down at his feet and smiles. "Speak of the devil."
He reaches down and picks Poppy up off the floor.
I smile as he places her at the foot of my bed. Poppy bounds over to me and climbs up my chest, licking my face. I grab her under her armpits and pick her up. She sticks her togue out at me in an attempt to lick me again.
"Poppy, I love your kisses, but you have smelly puppy breath." I laugh. "I don't want it all over my face."
Nick smiles and says, "Well, I'm going to go sit on the couch. Come get me if you need anything."
I put Poppy down on the bed, nod, and blow him a kiss. He pretends to catch it and holds his closed fist to his heart. He blows one back and I catch it, squeezing my fist tightly. He blushes, smiles, and closes the door.
I tuck myself into bed, blushing and smiling, still holding my fist closed against the invisible kiss. Poppy shoves her way under my blankets and cuddles up against my curled-up legs.
I held my fist against my face and eventually fell asleep.
...
I wake up to a knock on my bedroom door. I peek up at the door as Nick slowly opens it and peers inside.
He smiles when he sees my brown eyes looking up at him. "So, um. I have news, but I don't know if we would consider this good or bad news."
I just raise my eyebrows at him. "What do you mean?"
He laughs and says, "So I've been throwing up a lot. I think I got the flu as well."
I laugh. "Oh, sorry." I gasp. "Wait!"
Nick raises an eyebrow at me.
I smile widely and sit up quickly. The motion makes me a little lightheaded and nauseous, but I don't care. I hold my arms out to him like I was asking for a hug, and say, "That means we can cuddle and kiss again!"
The realization slowly creeps onto Nick's face, and his smile grows wider and wider. "Yeah... yeah! I'm going to get something more comfortable on; you wait right here!"
I laugh as he practically runs out of the room. Poppy emerges from under the blankets and stretches out. She yawns, and she makes a noise that sounds like Snoopy. I giggle.
I hear Nick running back down the hallway. He pushes the door open, and rushes over to the other side of my bed. He jumps in and tucks himself in.
I lay back down and turn to the side to face him. He scootches closer to me and wraps me up in his arm. I tuck my head into the spot between his neck and shoulder as I wrap my arms around his stomach.
He smells faintly of cinnamon. God, how I've missed feeling his touch.
He pulls away from me and takes my chin in his hand. He slowly pushes his lips against mine, and I waste no time kissing him back. I place my hands against his chest as we kiss, the fingers of his other hand tangling through my hair.
He lets go of the kiss and places his forehead against mine, smiling and closing his eyes. "I love you so much, Alec."
I blush and close my eyes as well, smiling. "I love you too, Nicky. God, I missed you so much."
"So did I. I missed kissing you."
"I just missed being near you."
"Oh, stop it." He hugs me tighter to him.
I put my head back in its original position in between his neck and shoulder. "It's true though."
He doesn't say anything, but I can feel his cheeks move up in a smile. Poppy shimmies her way in between our legs and curls up into a croissant shape.
Eventually, we all fell asleep.

I wake up to the sound of my alarm clock beeping loudly. I groan and roll onto my back, then pull my pillow over my ears. I release one of my hands from the pillow and slap snooze on the clock before letting go of the pillow completely.
I let out a sigh of relief and close my eyes again.
If the alarm clock didn't wake me up, then Nick sure did. He kicks my bedroom door open, then flips on the light and screams, "It's turkey day!"
I scream "Fuck!" and slap my hands over my eyes.
He laughs. "Sorry." He flips the light back off, walks over to my bedside table, and clicks my lamp on.
I slowly remove my hands from my eyes and stare at him. He crouches down next to my face and says, "You really aren't a morning person, are you?"
I just shake my head. He smiles.
I wish I could see that fucking smile right now. He's just an attractive blur at the moment.
I reach over and grab my glasses off the nightstand and put them on.
I look over at him.
He smirks and says, "You should be excited to wake up though. You know why?" He waits a second, then says after I don't respond, "It's turkey day."
I squint my eyes at him. "But it's not even November?"
Nick raises an eyebrow at me. "What?"
I continue to stare at him. "Oh. You mean the country."
"No shit, Sherlock." He kisses me on the forehead. "Come on. Get up. We got to go to the airport."
He stands up and yanks my blanket off my legs. He crawls onto my chest and mutters into my white tank top, "Come on. Don't you want to go see your home country?"
I press my face against the top of his head and whisper into his rose-scented hair, "Of course I do." I slip my fingers under his bathrobe, then his white tank top, and rub his back gently. "But can we just lay here like this? Just for a little bit?"
He sighs and nuzzles his head into my chest. "Sure, sexyback. Whatever you want."
I roll my eyes. "You haven't called me that in a while. I kind of miss it."
"I just forgot I called you that at all." He kisses my chest. "I've been calling you other names like 'love' and 'baby.' They suit you much better to be honest."
I chuckle. "I do miss you calling me 'sexyback' though. It's like a souvenir from the start of our relationship."
"I can call you it more often if you want."
"Yes please."
"Alright then." He puts his hands against my chest and hoists himself up, pinning me against the bed. "And to think you hated that name."
I blush and smirk up at him. "Well..." I fumble for words. "You're just so charming. It's hard not to love your annoying pet names for me after a while of you calling me them."
He blushes. "You think I'm charming?"
I smile and place my hand on his hip. "You've always been. Since the first day I saw you at Camp Tipiskaw. I just never really admitted it."
He puts his hand on my face and says, "You're so gay for me."
"Bisexual actually."
"Does that matter? The side of you that loves men loves me so therefore, you are gay for me."
"Whatever. You're gay for me too."
He smirks and leans closer to my face. "Bisexual actually."
I roll my eyes and bring my other hand up to his neck, then pull him in and kiss him.
He quickly kisses me back and runs his fingers through my hair.
But this kiss is quickly over.
Nick pulls away and smiles down at me, blushing. "Come on. Get up and get dressed. We don't have time to make out right now."
He pushes himself off me and gets off the bed. He leaves the room, stretching his arms out and yawning, his slippers making a rhythmic thumping against the hardwood floor. I just laugh and sit up.
I push my glasses up on my nose, then pull my blankets off and get out of my bed. I walk over to my bureau and open the second drawer from the bottom.
I sift through my clothes and find a blue polo shirt and some white dress pants. I change into the clothes and find my sienna leather belt in the top drawer.
I pull the belt through the belt loops on my pants and buckle it. I slip my new watch around my wrist and take my hair out of the ponytail I had it in while sleeping. I gently brush my hair before tying it back up. I slip a pair of black dress shoes onto my feet.
I look at myself in my mirror before opening my bedroom door, slinging my carry-on onto my shoulder, and rolling my suitcase over to the front door. Nick’s was already by the door, and he was leaning against the door in a white polo shirt and a pair of jeans, his carry-on lying next to his suitcase.
“Ready to go?” he asks, smiling as he sees me.
I smile back and nod. “Yep.”
He pulls his keys out of his pocket and swings them around on his index finger. “Alright, let’s go.”
He slips his backpack around his shoulders, then opens the front door. “Come on.”
He rolls his suitcase out the door, then starts walking over to his blue car. I adjust my tote bag on my shoulder, then rolled my suitcase out the door after him and shut the door, locking it behind me.
Nick opens the trunk of his car and stuffs his suitcase inside, then grabs mine as I roll it over to him and stuffs it in next to his. Then he shuts the trunk and opens the back door, shoving his backpack onto the backseat.
He looks at me and gestures to my tote bag. "Do you want to put that in the backseat too?"
I just laugh sweetly and say, "No, I'll just hold it in my lap."
He smiles and says, "Alright. Get in the car, sexyback."
I roll my eyes but hop in the passenger seat anyway. Nick gets in the driver's seat and as soon as he starts the car and we're both buckled up, he starts driving to the airport.
~
As we're driving down the dark highway, I anxiously check my watch. 5:00 AM. My foot is bouncing up and down quickly, and I keep picking up my phone.
Nick's eyebrows furrow. "What's wrong, Alec?"
I sigh. "I'm just nervous."
"About the flight?"
"No."
A beat.
"Then what?"
"About... my family."
The day after my birthday, I had told Nick that my family lives in Istanbul. He suggested we go stay with them while we are there. I called my Annem (1) and asked if we could stay with them, which resulted in a very long phone conversation involving my Babam (2), and after it ended, I got phoned later by my older brother Ali, which was another long phone conversation. Word spreads fast in my family.
My Annem was very surprised that I would come to visit my "dear old family" on my own accord. For some reason, she still has a firm believe that I'm still that little rebel teenager I used to be. Can't believe I was ever like that.
Nick takes one hand off the wheel to steady my bouncing foot. "I'm sure they'll be fine."
"I'm just so worried." I sigh. "What if they don't end up liking you?"
"I'm sure they will." He rubbed my shoe and smiled. "If they don't end up liking me, we can find a hotel and continue our vacation alone. How does that sound?"
I exhale and smile. "Thank you. I just... really hope they do like you."
He laughs. "We'll just have to see when we get there."
I laugh and say, "Yeah."
~
Getting through the airport was no easy feat. Nick forgot to take his phone out of his pocket when we were going through security, so we got held back for that. My tote bag also had to get checked after going through the x-rays because I forgot to take my laptop charger out of the bag when they literally told me to keep it in there.
We also took us a bit to find our gate but once we boarded the plane, everything was easy.
~
I mostly read the whole flight but only stopped once Nick stationed his head on my shoulder and fell asleep. I just smiled and put my book away, then laid my head on his and fell asleep.
We both woke up quickly before we landed. I quickly checked my watch. It says 8:00, but I now need to remember that Istanbul time is 2 hours ahead of London time so it's actually 10:00.
Once we were off the flight, we picked up our bags at baggage claim and got a rental car. I give Nick my parent's address and we start driving to their house.
"So does your brother and his family live with your parents?" Nick asks.
"Well, no," I say. "Him, his wife, and his son are just staying with my parents while we're there. They have their own house; they just want to see us too."
"Oh." He stops at a red light. "What are they like?"
"My parents? Or my brother?"
"Everybody. Tell me about them."
I scratch my chin. "Well, my parents are very energetic and sometimes they say things that can come across as rude, but they usually mean well. My brother is probably going to be really skeptical of you at first, but he'll eventually warm up to you. He's nice once you get to know him. A big pain in my ass though. My sister-in-law is really sweet, it just feels like she really is my sister. And my nephew, Adlee. A little ball of happiness, he is. I've never seen that kid without a smile on his face." I laugh sweetly.
Nick smiles. "They all sound nice. I'm excited to meet them all."
I sigh and smile too. "I'll just be happy to see them all in person again."
Nick reaches over and pats my knee.
~
As Nick pulls into the driveway of my parents' house, I take a deep breath.
Nick stops the car and looks over at me. "You okay?"
I smile and look over at him. "Yeah. Let's go."
We hop out of the car, and I sling my tote bag around my shoulder. I open up the trunk and grab our suitcases as Nick grabs his backpack from the back seat. He shuts the door, I shut the trunk, and he locks the car. He comes around the back of the car and takes a hold of his suitcase.
He pats me on the shoulder and says, "You ready?"
I laugh. "Oh, I'm ready. The question is, are you?"
He scoffs. "Definitely not."
We laugh.
"Come on, let's go," I say, starting towards the front door. He follows closely behind.
I take a deep breath before ringing the doorbell.
Almost immediately, the door swings open. Standing there, with a huge grin on his face, was my Babam. He springs forward and wraps me in a tight hug.
“Alec, my boy! I haven’t seen you in so long!”
I laugh awkwardly and pat his back. “Hi, Babam.”
He lets me go, then looks directly at Nick. “And you must be Nick! Nice to meet you!” He throws his hand out at Nick.
Nick smiles and shakes his hand. “Nice to meet you too, sir.”
My Babam pats Nick on the back, then says, “Come on inside! Make yourselves comfortable!” He walks into the house.
Me and Nick look at each other.
Nick widens his eyes and says, “You weren’t lying when you said energetic.”
I laugh. “I wasn’t lying about any of them. Come on.” I walk through the door, Nick following behind me.
Not even one second after Nick closes the door behind us, a little squeaky voice from down the hallway shouts, “Uncle Alec!”
I smile and crouch down as little Adlee comes running down the hallway towards me. I laugh as he runs into my arms and I scoop him up.
“Adlee, my boy! Oh, you’ve grown so big! Pretty soon, you’ll be as tall as your old uncle!”
Adlee laughs. “I’m only 5.”
I widen my eyes. "Oh wow! You're getting old." I smirk as my brother Ali walks down the hallway. I point at him. "Just like your dad."
Ali scoffs and walks up to me, taking Adlee into his arms. “Still the same pain in the butt as always. Figured you wouldn’t have changed much since you were a teenager.”
I roll my eyes. “Oh, quit it, Ali. I have changed, you just fail to see it.”
He passes Adlee over to my sister-in-law, Halime, who waves to me before walking into another room. I wave back to her, smiling.
Ali takes a hair tie off his wrist and ties his long brown hair up into a bun. He pushes his glasses up on his nose and looks me up and down.
“Alec.”
I squint my eyes at him. “Ali.”
A long silence.
Then, Ali smiles and brings me in for a hug. “I missed you.”
I laugh, wrapping my arms around his back. “I missed you too, Ali.”
Ali unwraps himself from me and looks over at Nick. He holds his hand out and says, “You must be Nick. I’ve heard so much about you. It’s really nice to meet you.”
Nick takes Ali’s hand and shakes it. “It’s nice to meet you too.”
Ali pulls Nick closer to him by his hand and whispers something in his ear that I couldn’t quite make out. He lets go of Nick’s hand, then politely smiles and walks away.
Nick looks at me, his eyes wide.
I just smile. “I told you he’s a little intense.”
Nick just nods his head.
We take our suitcases and we roll them down the hallway and into the living room.
When we walk through the doorway, my parents’ fat old Dachshund lumbers towards us, his tongue sticking out of his mouth.
I crouch down and say, “Albert!”
Nick laughs. “Albert?”
I look over at him as I scratch the top of Albert’s head. “Isn’t it just the most perfect name?”
Nick crouches down next to me, then starts petting Albert’s back. “He’s so fat!”
I laugh. “Yeah, he’s a bit of a foodie.”
Albert rolls over onto his back very slowly, and me and Nick start scratching his tummy.
My Annem walks through the doorway that connects the living room and the kitchen, rubbing her hands with a towel. “I guess Albert likes you, Nick!”
I look up at my Annem and get up off the floor. I walk over to her and wrap her in a tight hug.
She laughs and hugs pats my back, then pushes my hair back and tenderly kisses my forehead.
“I’m making dinner right now. You boys can go make yourself comfortable in our other spare bedroom. We just opened up another room for you guys; we cleared out your Babam’s old office since he recently just got a new job and doesn’t work from home anymore.”
I smile and say, “He got a new job? Tell him I said congratulations!”
She gives me a smirk and says, “Why don’t you tell him yourself?”
“I would but I have no idea where he ran off to.”
She laughs. “Well, I’ll be sure to tell him.”
I laugh. “What are you making for dinner?”
He flings the kitchen towel over her shoulder and smiles. “I’m making spinach and chilli bean pide. Your favorite.”
I pump my fist, my eyes glittering. She shakes her head and kisses me on the cheek, then strides back into the kitchen.
When I look back at Nick, he is now currently lying on his back on the floor, Albert sitting next to his head and licking his face. Nick was giggling and petting Albert’s ears.
I just shake my head and get down on the floor next to Nick. Albert stops licking Nick and lumbers over to me. I pick him up and place him on my chest. I start scratching the top of his head.
“It seems like you have a new friend,” I say to Nick, as Albert takes his paw to hold down my hand so he could lick it.
Nick just laughs and rolls over on his side to face me. “What can I say? He likes me!” Nick scoots closer to me. “Let me contribute to the kissing booth over here.” He starts showering me with kisses all over my face.
I just laugh.
After a while, Albert stops licking my hand and tumbles off my chest, then lumbers away into the kitchen with my Annem. Nick stops kissing me, then takes my chin in his hand and turns my face towards him. He leans in and we share one long kiss.
He pulls back and smiles at me. I smile back, blushing, and push my glasses up on my nose.
Nick sits up and says, “We should probably go bring our stuff into that bedroom.”
I nod and sit up too. Nick gets to his feet, then holds his hand out. I grip his hand tightly and he hauls me up.
Together, we roll our suitcases down the hallway and into the spare bedroom. We set them down next to a wooden dresser. I slide my tote bag off my shoulder and place it on top of my suitcase. Nick places his backpack next to his suitcase.
Nick stretches his arms behind his head and sits down on the bed. “Whose side is whose?”
I pull my dress shoes off my feet and lay them next to my suitcase. I flop onto the bed and say, “I want the right side.”
He just laughs and takes his shoes off as well, laying them next to mine. He lays down on the bed next to me and looks at me.
We just laugh.
I sit up on the edge of the bed. Nick sits up and scoots across the bed to sit next to me, and lays his head on my shoulder.
“Are you happy?” he says.
I wrap my arm around his waist. “Hmm?”
“Are you happy?” he asks again.
I just smile and kiss the top of his head. “Of course I’m happy. Why do you ask?”
He smiles. “I just wanted to know.” He lets out a sigh. “Your family is so nice. I’m so glad they let us stay here. I was really excited to meet them.”
I laugh. “They were really excited to meet you too.” I smirk at him. “Next up, it’s time I meet your family.”
He just scoffs. “Good luck with that one. My parents are a little overprotective and they might not like you.”
“I said the same thing about Ali. He seems to be warming up to you already.”
“How do you know that?”
“Uh… because I’m his brother and I grew up with him?”
Nick laughs. “Just kidding around.”
Suddenly, the bedroom door swings open. Me and Nick swing our heads around to see my Babam standing in the doorway.
My Babam looks at us for a second, then smiles, pushes his glasses up on his nose, and says, “Alec, Nick, dinner’s ready. Come on!”
He practically ballet danced back down the hallway. Me and Nick stare at each other.
“Does that guy ever run out of energy?” Nick asks, standing up off the bed.
I laugh. “Nope. For someone who’s a grandfather, he seems to think he has great knees for the amount of energy he keeps stored in his body.”
Nick just laughs. “I’m going to tell your dad you said that.”
I get up off the bed. “Don’t you dare.”
Nick takes my hand in his. “Just kidding around again.” Together, hand in hand, we walk out to the kitchen.
Adlee was standing on one of the kitchen chairs, talking really quickly about his favorite kind of train to Ali, who was nodding along as he set plates on the table.
I sneakily walked up behind Adlee and wrapped my arms around him, scooping him up and roaring like a dinosaur.
Adlee screams, then giggles and kicks his feet around in the air.
I laugh and put him back on the chair. He sits down with a thud and looks up at me. “Uncle Alec, are you a ninja? Or are you a dinosaur.” He gasps, then smiles a toothy smile. “Are you a ninja-dinosaur?”
I smile and laugh. “Yep. A ninja-dinosaur in disguise!”
Adlee laughs and claps his hands together, his face lit up with excitement.
Ali shakes his head and says, “I didn’t know I had a ninja-dinosaur for a brother.”
I flip my hair at him, then say, “I do. And I’m going to eat you while you’re sleeping tonight.”
He rolls his eyes, then starts placing wine glasses for each of us on the table, then a regular glass for Adlee.
My Annem brings two plates of food over to the table, and I rush over and grab one from her. “Here, let me help you with those, Annem.”
She laughs and says, “We raised him right.”
Ali scoffs. “Just barely.”
I ignore him, and place the plate in the middle of the table. I go over to the kitchen counter and help haul more plates of food over to the table.
My Babam grabs a bottle of red wine from the fridge and says, “You drink wine, right, Nick?”
Nick smiles and says, “Of course I do! Thank you!”
My Babam smiles and pats my shoulder, then whispers to me, “He’s a keeper.”
I just blush and nod.
My Babam starts pouring wine into everyone's glasses, then pours some water from a pitcher into Adlee's glass.
My Annem places the last plate of food onto the table as Halime places silverware next to the plates and Nick helps put napkins at each plate.
My Annem smiles and looks around at the family. "Alright everyone! Wash your hands before you eat!"
My Babam pushes his glasses up on his nose, then leans in and whispers to me, "Your Annem thinks we're all children, not just Adlee."
I give him a small chuckle, then move over to the sink with Nick. We quickly wash our hands together by the sink. He sneakily bumps his hip against mine, and I bump him back. We smile stupidly at each other, then dry our hands.
Adlee jumped off his chair and runs over to the sink. He tugs on my pant leg, then says, "Uncle Alec, help me up!"
I laugh and bend down, then hoist him up into my arms and hold him over the sink. Nick turns the faucet on for him and he quickly washes his hands. Before I put him back down on the floor, I blow a raspberry on his cheek. He laughs and I set him down on the floor.
He runs over to Ali, and Ali scoops him up into his arms. Ali places Adlee back on his chair, then walks over to the sink next to me and Nick.
Ali starts washing his hands, then looks at me, raises an eyebrow and says, "You're really good with kids. Why couldn't you handle your own?"
I look down at my feet, and Nick grabs my hand. "Just because I'm good with kids doesn't mean I was ready for the responsibility of having my own."
Ali looks back at the sink, then dries his hands off and pats my shoulder. "Sorry."
Before I could ask why he's apologized, he walked off and placed a kiss on Halime's cheek. As Halime walked over to the sink, me and Nick went and took our seats at the table, our hands interlocked.
Nick takes my hand in both of his and caresses my palm with his thumbs. I never really noticed how big my hands are compared to his.
He places a gentle kiss against my palm, then whispers to me, "I want you to know that if we ever get to that point in our relationship where it's good to have kids and you're still not ready, I'm totally okay with that. We don't ever have to have kids if that's what you want."
I blush. Then a smile tugs at the corners of my lips. "Why are you thinking about having kids with me already?"
His face quickly turns red and he stutters a little. "I...I..." He sighs. "On a serious note though."
My smile immediately fades. I look down at my lap, then back up at him. "Maybe one day. When I'm ready." I smile sweetly.
He smiles back, then places another kiss on the back of my hand.
He let go of my hand as everyone started filing into their seats.
My Annem smiles and gestures her hands out to the food on the table. "Alright everyone! Dig in! There's plenty for everyone!"
Everyone started filling their plates with the Turkish wonders, Ali helping Adlee with his plate.
Nick takes some food onto his plate, then looks at it suspiciously.
I stare at him and raise my eyebrow, chewing my pide furiously. I stop munching and say, "You can eat, you know. My Annem isn't going to poison you."
Nick picks the food up off his plate and smiles at me. "I know, I know. I've just never had this before so I'm just wondering what it's going to taste like." He lowers to food up to his lips, then takes a big bite. He chews slowly, my whole family staring at him.
Then he freezes. A beat. Then his eyes close and he leans back in his chair. He looks straight at my Annem and says, "Mm, this is so good!" He takes another huge bite, and I elbow his arm before continuing to eat my food.
~
The rest of the dinner drags in a quiet conversation. Me and Nick just held hands under the table and listened intently as we ate.
Now, me and my family are sitting on the living room couch, watching the TV. Nobody is really paying attention to it though. The conversation is young in the room.
“So Nick,” my Babam said, holding his hand out to Nick. “How is our Alec? How are you liking him?”
I blush and Nick says, “Well, he’s actually wonderful. He’s fun to spend time with. He always knows how to cheer me up."
Ali elbows me in my arm. "Since when?"
I brush him away, then said, "We're not having this conversation again!"
Nick raises an eyebrow, then looks at Ali and said, "I know he was an absolute dick on Disventure Camp and was a really sucky father, but he has changed."
"Oh, I'm not referring to that," Ali said, smirking in my direction.
I raised an eyebrow at him.
Then it hit me.
Oh no. He's referring to when I was a teenager.
I shot Nick an anxious glance but he didn't notice. "What are you referring to then?"
I lean forward and put my head in my hands as Ali started talking. "Do you know that he's a really good singer?"
Nick nods. "Oh, yes. I've heard him sing; he's got great vocals."
I pick my head up and look at him. "Can't say the same for you though."
He rolls his eyes and Ali continues. "So, when Alec went into high school, he entered a talent show at the beginning of the year and he sang a song for the judges. Basically, these three guys in the audience were looking to form a band and only needed a lead singer to make it happen, so they recruited Alec after the show, and he accepted."
Nick's jaw drops and he looks at me. "Alec, you were in a band!?"
I just roll my eyes and rest my head on my hand. "Just let him finish please."
Ali smirks and continues. "So, Alec was in this band for all of high school. He was lead singer obviously, this Russian guy Rooney was the bassist, this Colombian guy named Juan was the guitarist, and this Italian guy named Luke was the drummer. They were called The Broken Records; they made two albums and an EP. They broke up after high school ended because they all went to different colleges and couldn't find a way to make music together long distance."
Nick looked at me with a glimmer in his eyes. "What was it like to be in a band?"
I fiddled with my fingers and said, "It was quite stressful, but it was fun too. I made so many great memories while I was in that band. I still talk to everybody and we're all still great friends like we were in high school."
"You got so stressed your started smoking weed!" Ali said, laughing.
I elbowed him. "Yeah, whatever. Thank God, you ratted me out to Annem and Babam before I could get addicted.
"We still sent you to rebab."
"Whatever, let's just stop talking about this."
"Where is everybody else now?" Nick asks, changing the subject.
I smile. "Rooney went to live in Russia because he 'didn't feel Russian enough' and wanted to reconnect with his culture. He's living with his boyfriend in Moscow, and he started his own solo music career and is touring all over Russia. Juan moved to the States for college and decided he wanted to stay there after meeting his boyfriend who sings really well. They make music together and tour the world together. Luke started his own solo career too, but he stopped doing concerts. He still makes music, but he wanted to be able to spend more time with his wife and two daughters."
"They all have way better lives than you," Ali said, smirking.
I roll my eyes at him. "Whatever. I don't need fame anymore. I have Nick, I'm good."
I could see Nick blush out of the corner of my eye.
Ali chuckles. "Why don't you tell Nick about you and Rooney, hm?"
I jump to my feet. "Don't you bring that up!"
Nick raises an eyebrow. "What?"
I shoot a piercing glance at Ali, then sit back down next to Nick. "Me and Rooney... well, we were in a relationship together while we were in the band. We were great together; we really could have lasted but once the band broke up, we broke up. We just couldn't do long distance."
Nick looks at his feet. "Oh, I'm sorry."
"It's fine," I say. I smile and grab his hand, then started tracing the lines on his palm. "Rooney is happy with his boyfriend in Russia and I have you. I don't need Rooney when I have a Nick for myself."
He smiles.
Suddenly, a pillow hits my side. I look to my left to see who threw it. Ali is looking at his feet and holding back a laugh, so I smirk, pick up the pillow and get to my feet.
I walk over to Ali, then swing the pillow in his direction. He quickly dodges it, then laughs and grabs a pillow from next to him and gets to his feet as well.
The two of us start whacking the pillows at each other, running around the living room and laughing like hyenas. My parents look at each other.
My Babam smiles. "They're getting along."
My Annem shakes her head. "They're like children!"
Ali knocks me to the floor and starts whacking his pillow at me. I hold my pillow up to him as a shield, laughing as I block his hits.
My hair comes loose, and I shout, "Okay, okay! I surrender! You win!"
He throws his pillow back onto the couch and goes to sit back down next to Halime, smoothing his shirt out. I sit up and grab my hair tie off the floor, then tie my hair back into its ponytail. I grab the pillow and get off the floor. I place the pillow back on the couch before sitting back down next to Nick.
Suddenly, Adlee comes bounding out of nowhere and jumps onto my lap. "Uncle Alec, I think you won that fight."
I laugh and say, "Yes, I did."
"Hey! You said I won!" Ali shouts at me.
I shrug. "Adlee gave his input. He says I win so therefore, I won."
Ali rolls his eyes. "Whatever."

Later on, when the sun had set and the stars came out, me and Nick were sitting on the edge of our bed talking.
"I'm not tired enough to go to sleep now," Nick says, slowly placing his hand over mine.
I twist my hand around and interlock my fingers with his. "Honestly, same. What should we do?"
Nick looks over at me and smirks.
I blush. "Nick! No! My family is in the house! There's a child here!"
Nick laughs. "Chill out, mate! I'm only joking."
I shake my head. "But on a serious note, what should we do?"
Nick squeezes my hand, then turns his head to look out the window. He looks back at me and says, "We could go on a walk."
I smile and say, "That's a great idea! We can get tulumba!"
"What's that?"
"They're like these donut bites. They're so good!"
"Alright. Let's go!"
We hop off the bed and walk out of the room, then walk out into the living room, down the hallway, and through the front door.
~
Me and Nick found a cafe selling tulumba and ordered some to share. He practically melted when he tried it. Hard to believe this man refused to try Turkish food but once he did, it was like the best thing he's ever eaten.
Once we finished and left the cafe, we started walking. We walked to a park and found a bench to sit on.
As we were talking, a brown street cat comes near us and rubs its head all over Nick's legs. Then it hops up into his lap and starts making biscuits on his thighs. It eventually curls up on Nick's lap, purring happily.
Nick scratches the cat's head.
I laugh and pat it's back. "All the animals love you today."
"I must be a Disney princess or something."
I laugh.
Nick sighs and rests his hand on top of mine. "I absolutely love animals. Your family is so nice too. I never thought I'd love it here so much."
I smile and lay my head on top of his. "See? I told you you'd love it here."
CAN THEY GET ANY GAYER??? I LOVE BISEXUAL BRITISH MEN!!!
Anyways, I really hope you enjoyed this one! I hope it wasn’t too long and I’d like some input on the little family I made for Alec and his teenage lore. I worked hard on those
