It's Ok, He Already in my DM's [BXB]

Austin's POV
I put boxers back on saying "we gotta get going" and Eric says "you missed something." He kisses my bottom lip and licks my chin, going back to kissing me. I smile saying "you're so hot. Let's go" and we get ready to go out. We go to the kitchen and I grab a bottle of water, Eric doing the same. Mom says "where are you two going?" I say " we're meeting Vince's boyfriend. He's a college boy." We all chuckle and mom says "have fun, be back at a reasonable time I guess."

I chuckle saying "bye mom" and we put our shoes on then I say "do you want to drive?" Eric says "yeah" and we go out to his car. He opens the door for me and says "I find having official meetings with people's significant others rather pointless. Can you explain why this is a common social convention?" I smile and he gets in the car and starts driving. I say "well, it's because the person initiating wants you to meet them. Why do you find it pointless?"

Eric says "well, I think it's pointless because what if we don't like the person? It's the right thing to say that the person is weird to keep others safe but it's wrong if the person is your friend. It's set up with the confidence that we are going to like him which would damage Vince's spirits and make us look like assholes if we didn't like him." I say "Vince and I have a relationship where he'd want me to tell him the truth. Usually it is set up like that but I know he's not out, so I guess we're playing the meet the parents role tonight."

Eric says "ok. I think this is good then. I'm gonna smoke you all at bowling." I groan saying "why'd I suggest bowling?!" He laughs saying "good question. We can now see what this guy does when he's not the best at something. See if he's that much of an egomaniac we know he's insecure." I say "I love you" chuckling and we get to the ice cream place. Eric mumbles "alright, to start with, he's attractive and for sure goes to the gym. He cut his sleeves and didn't rip them, so it's for fashion not cause of a sport."

I mumble "hockey hair?" Eric nods then mumbles "but not Canadian." I say "how did you figure that out?!" Eric says "facial structure" and I mumble "dare I say he's very hot. I feel like those old ladies with you." Eric chuckles saying "let's meet and greet" putting his hand on my lower back. Eric offers me his hand when I go to sit down. He looks at me then I say "I'm Austin" and we stand up and he shakes my hand. The guy says "I'm Nick" and I smile and Eric says "I'm Eric." They shake hands and Nick says "holy shit, dude" pulling Eric's sleeve up. Nick says "how much do you bench?"

I chuckle and Eric says "I'm at three plates and some for my PR." Nick says "dude, that's crazy. I'm almost at two plates. What's your secret?" Eric says "progressive overload. Eat a lot, up the weight every couple weeks." I say "taking our doggies to the park worked well" and Vince says "glad you think so" us getting up. We walk away while our boys talk and we look at ice cream flavors. Vince says "so, what do you think?" I say "the night is young, as of right now I like him though. Eric gets along with him, so it's looking good so far."

Vince says "he gets along with everyone" and I say "he absolutely does not. He's very protective and I know he will be over you cause you're my best friend. Any wrong movement from Nick, Eric will hate him." We chuckle and Vince says "so, you have a trained guard dog?" I say "yeah, he's good enough to be a sniffer dog for dead bodies" and we laugh. I say "pretty soon they'll be nerding it out once they realize what each others majors are and what they are interested in."

Vince says "Nick is not a nerd." I say "bestie, you're blind. He's an accounting major. He's been told he's great at math his whole life and he doesn't want to be a teacher. Therefore, he's an accounting major." Vince says "what makes Eric a nerd?" I say "he was valedictorian in his class and took all the AP Physics classes his school had to offer. The school added another one for him. He also just spews random science facts. It's odd he's not like a stem major or something." Vince says "why have I never heard this about him before?"

I chuckle saying "no idea. We're gonna get smoked at bowling by the way." Vince says "I picked an athlete that's too liberal for a finance major" and I laugh saying "wonderful." Eric gestures for me to come over and we both go over. He says "do you know what you want?" I say "yeah" smiling and he says "alright" getting up. He rubs my shoulder as we walk and he says "tell me what you want, babe." I say "chocolate" smiling at him and he says "you didn't bring any money did you?"

I smile again saying "no" and he chuckles saying "so that's why you're being a kiss up" and I say "I mean, a little bit." He pecks my lips saying "I was gonna pay anyway" and I smile and he orders. Eric mumbles "did he just not pay for him?" I mumble "ouch, I think so" and Eric mumbles "he seems inexperienced." I mumble "he's not super confident" and he puts his hand in my back pocket and mumbles "I'll give him the benefit of the doubt for now."

I mumble "you could talk to him and see if there's an excusable answer." Eric says "mmm, I like when you use long words" and I roll my eyes. We sit down and I say "so, Nick, what year are you at UNH?" Nick says "I'm going to be a sophomore." I say "are you going for a post grad?" Nick says "yeah, I want to be a financial advisor." Eric says "so that's an extra year for your CFP? CFA? ChFC? CPA?" Nick chuckles saying "I don't even know any of those except CFP which is what I'm going for."

Eric says "that was another major I was looking at when I was looking at schools in Maine." I say "did you think of taking that as a minor or double major?" Eric smiles saying "yeah, I did then I realized that wasn't what I wanted. I looked at all kinds of majors." Nick says "me too, I couldn't figure  it out for the life of me. I even looked at the mathematics major." Eric says "once I looked at a sample course load of that, I was out. Same thing with stem. It looked horrible."

Vince says "you really were right. They really are nerds." I say "you're an education major" and he says "yeah, I'm like the equivalent to a communications or psych major." I say "I'm glad I'm friends with smart people so I can be an art major in peace." Eric chuckles saying "to not being my husbands an engineer rich?" I chuckle saying "cheers" leaning into him.
