Daniel's POV

"And then at the end you will take my hand and pull me into a kiss," Joey explained to me as we sat as the kitchen table.

"Okay so is this "our" coming out video" I replied confused by Joey's vision.

"Well that's what I wanted to talk about," he hesitated "I'm still not sure I want to go public with the relationship... even if I come out"

His words were like little pins being pushed into my heart, I'm beyond proud of him for taking the step and coming out but I can't believe he still wants to hide our relationship.

"D-aniel?" Joey asked staring me down from the other side of the table.

"Uh sure whatever Joey," I say pushing my chair out from under me moving into the kitchen to clean my dish.

I stand over the sink, my mind racing, am I not good enough, why does he want to keep hiding this, there is no way I can stay with him if I'm going to have to constantly walk away so he can vlog or not go on dates to avoid being recognized by anyone, I'm so deep in thought that I don't realize that now have tears trailing down my cheeks.

I heard Joey stand up and wander over to the sink,
"Danny, are you crying?"

"I'm fine Joseph." I say a bit to harshly as I storm from the kitchen to the stairs.

"What the hell is your problem!?" I hear Joey yell as me as I walk away, I refuse to answer and instead crumble onto the stairs and cry, and cry and cry.

I cry for what feels like forever until I hear Joeys footsteps coming down the hallway,
when the reach me they stop.
