Nan And Pop (oh joy)

(IRONICALLY ENOUGH THIS IS BACK BECAUSE I REREAD THE LAST CHAPTER AND FEELS AND UPDATES AND I LOVE MY PAST SELF)

Dan was trying not to scream "I AM A GAY MAN AND MY CAT IS A MY BOYFRIEND. AND YES I PAINT MY NAILS BLACK, BECAUSE IT IS THE EMO TRADITION."

His homophobic grandparents had just arrived, (although he did give his nan this, she didn't approve of homosexuality but she wasn't going to be mean about it.) and were doing on a tangent about Phil being there and how he really didn't understand why Daniel had to have brought a cat, (even though his mum had really been quite amused by the fact that Phil was a Neko, once she did reassure the fact that he wasn't a furry. Because ew. That was even less okay than Gerard Way.)

And then, his grandfather saw his nails, and about lost it. While Noelle had somehow managed to become mute in the last hour, Victoria had proceeded to explain that they had been bored yesterday and painted his nails. To which their grandfather okay it and went on a rant about homosexuality.

For the 7th time in the last two hours.

Needless to say, Dan and his either asexual or lesbian siblings, (or the case of Troye, who they had Skyped with yesterday, and found out that he was I fact happy and safe in California.) just sat on the couch awkwardly as their father heavily agreed and their mother awkwardly nodded.

Dan finally stood up, and said, "You know what, I think I'm gonna go get some food." He looked at his sisters, who heavily nodded and grabbed their coats and shoes, and ran out the door with him down to the shop down the road. Victoria didn't lose it until they were about half-way down the road, and finally exploded, saying: "I hate him. HATE. Asshole."

Noelle nodded, glaring at the ground fiercely and kicking rocks. "Just, what's even the point. Troye's happy. What's the big deal? You're, bi, Tori, you're dating that one ftm, Issac? And Dan's got Phil, and I don't care, and just I don't get it."

Dan nodded, and said, "Look, he's not right. But we can't change him, and that's not gonna be any different. So how about we go get some malteasers and chill for a few hours?"

Victoria smiled, and checked her phone. "Oh, well Issac's at the cafe anywho so let's go see him."

Noelle grinned, as her sister ran ahead and poked a pretty tall black-haired boy, (at least that was what it looked like from the back.) and he turned around and grinned. Dan couldn't really detect any amount of female about him, and he honestly was really just trying not to "awe," at how happy his sister looked.

Maybe it wasn't such a terrible day after all, Dan thought as he took a sip of his drink.
