Danny's pov:

I couldn't see Robbie and Joey at lunch as I sat at the table. I glanced up to see them both coming in shortly after, Robbie's eyes looked slightly bloodshot, had he been crying? I pulled out my phone as he qued to get food.
'Why have you been crying Robbie?'
He glanced at his phone before looking up making eye contact with me before I seen his fingers typing.
'I've not been'
'Robbie, no lies'
'I'll tell you later'
I looked up to see both Robbie and Joey chatting before they glanced down at me. Joey showing a small smirk. Did he know?

As i walked to training after school i couldn't see Robbie in the changing room and seen Joey look around also, "anyone seen cap?" He asked to the group as they changed.
"Seen him already on the court" one of they guys said making me rush to get ready to go out and join him.

"Alright cap?" I asked casually walking up to where he was shooting 3 pointers, "alright" was all he said I return.
"You okay?" I said glancing around seeing that we're alone.
"I'm fine, just warming up" he said as more of the guys filed in as I grabbed a ball launching it through the hoop without touching the rim.

Finishing up I hang back to pick up the balls with Robbie. "I can manage, you go shower" he said without looking up. "Two sets of hands make quicker work, then we can both shower, shall I call you later?" I asked picking up the final couple of balls into the bag walking over to the storage room.
"I suppose" he said walking into the room. I glanced over my shoulder seeing the court empty following him in.
"Rob what happened"
"I'll speak to you later" he said adverting his gaze.
"Okay baby I'll call you after dinner" I said stroking his arm softly before walking out toward the changing rooms heading straight for the shower.

Robbie had came and gone by the time I was out of the shower with Joey. I quickly set off home to get dinner sorted so i could speak to Rob, he wasn't acting the same as last time, ignoring me, no something had clearly got under his skin.

'Good to call now? :)' I texted waiting for a reply when surprisingly my phone rang flashing up Robbie's name.
"Hey Robbie"
"Hi"
"What did you have for dinner?" I asked not wanting to delve straight into what was going on.
"Is that why you wanted to phone me? To find out what I had for dinner?" He said with an almost chuckle.
"Well no but I thought I'd make light conversation first bit if you rather, why where you crying baby"
"I wasn't crying! I just had watery eyes"
I kinda rolls my eyes.
"Robbie you don't need to act matcho to me, it's ok to cry, now what happened"
I heard him sigh before softly saying, "Joey found out"
"Found out what baby?"
"That I, that wee um had been, um were together"
"How did he find out pumpkin" I said gently to coax him.
"Um well I said I passed out in a room In your house but he said he checked all rooms bar yours for me and then when Henry said he heard moaning from your room well he put two and two together" I felt like I could hear his blush through the screen.
"And how did Joey take it?" I enquired hoping it didn't but a riff in the friendship.
"He, he actually was okay, he told me he doesn't care if I'm gay or bi, which I said I'm not! But he was more hurt by me lying, but were okay, it's just awkward I guess, he asked if that's why I don't shower with the team, which I obviously said no to"
"Robbie baby don't worry about labels like gay and bi, I'm glad Joey was supportive of you though, he's a good guy"
"Yea"
There was a lull of silence, before I spoke up.
"So Robbie darling, can I take you on a date this weekend?"
"Like a proper date?" He said shocked
"Yes sweetheart"
"Out in public?" He said and I could heard the panic in his voice.
"What ever your most comfortable with, we can watch a movie at home, go out to the cinema, dinner, coffee, I'm happy to do anything you like and are comfortable with Robbie"
"Thanks Da-nny"
"We can decide over the week, I better go have a shower, and I'll leave you thinking of me naked in the shower. Bye Robbie!" I said chuckling hanging up the phone as I heard Robby fumble his word.

Friday soon rolled around and with no game this week we just had a long taxing training session. I fell into the usual routine after of helping Robbie pick up the balls after practice. "Have you decided what you'd like to do this weekend?" I asked as we piled the gear into the storeroom.
"I don't think I'm ready to go out side on a date yet" he said not holding contact.
"That's ok pumpkin, everything at your pace. How about I go to the shops and get us some snacks and you come to mine tomorrow morning and we'll have a movie marathon, my parents will be out most of the day." I said and he glanced up smiling, "that would be nice" he said and I glanced around out into the court before I hold my hand to his cheek leaning down to kiss his lips softly. "I can't wait baby" I said before heading back into the showers.

Robs pov:

As I waited for Joey to come out of the changing rooms I sit on my phone texting Sarah, I feel like Iv ignored her this week so we were organising a catch up soon.
"Who you texting that has you smiling so much?" Joey said as he jumped into the car beside me.
"Oh it's just Sarah!" I said putting away my phone and buckling up.
"Oh are you still seeing Sarah?"
"No we're just friends" I said truthfully.
"I mean you were always 'just friends'" he said glancing over.
"Well we're just friends no benefits now" I said blushing.
"Ohhh you and Danny seriouse of your not seeing anyone else?" He said smirking over as I glanced not wanting to advert my eyes from the road.
"What no that's not what I mean! I'm not anything with Danny?"
"So you don't want to be his boyfriend?" He asked studying my face likely seeing the heat rising in my cheeks at talking about this with him.
"No joey I'm not gay!"
"Rob, not to be blunt but no straight man is going to let a guy fuck them" he said as I pulled up to his house.
"Ah Joey! Can we not talk about this, it's strange and embarrassing" i said looking out my side window.
"Rob, it's not strange to be attracted or seeing a guy.hey if I was into guys I'd happily tap Danny, guys a god. Own it!" He said opening his door as I slightly glanced at him blushing at the fact Joey guessed that he was the bottom. "Thanks Joey" was all I said before he shut the door flashing a smile. I still didn't feel I was gay but what he said was true, no straight guys wants to be fucked and better yet enjoy it. I could feel myself grow in my pants, at the thought of straddling Danny's lap, okey ye I'm definitely not 100% straight.
