Happy To Call This Home

Okay, so it takes Dex a few years to notice. He’s got plenty of excuses lined up in case of the world-ending chance that someone actually asks him: their first year, everyone had been distracted with the discovery that Bad Bob Zimmermann and his lovely wife were genuinely great people, and, as a sophomore, he’d been too embarrassed with his kid sister’s blatant crush on Ransom to pay much attention to the fact that Nursey was flitting back and forth between Bitty and his mama and Chowder and the entire clan of equally Sharks-obsessed Chows.

But when they’re juniors and Bitty and Ford remind them after a particularly gruelling practice about the upcoming Parents’ Night In that’s three weeks out, Dex is already more or less watching Nursey, because Nursey had pulled up the bottom of his slouchy white The Future Is Non-Binarytank to wipe his face clean of sweat, and Dex really tries to pay less attention to Derek Nurse’s abs, but he’s not infallible and it’s early as fuck.

Anyway, Ford is answering Tango’s question about lodging and Bitty is consulting some of the newest taddies about parental allergens and no one but Dex seems to notice that the line of Nursey’s back is taut and the grimace pulling at his mouth is uncomfortable.

With Parents' Weekend rapidly approaching, Nursey falls deeper and deeper in a slump after finding out his parents will be missing it for the third year in a row. Luckily, Dex is handling it.
