"Mom, we're home," Sarah said exhausted as her, Tyler and Andy walked into the house.

"How was your first day of school?" She asked them as she came down from her room.

"It was so long, but I have a lot of friends in all my classes so I don't have to have any awkward moments with strangers," Sarah responded. She seemed really relieved about that.

"Awkward moments?" Her mom asked confused.

"Like if we get a project or have to work on something with a partner. If I don't know anyone then I will have to be forced to work with a stranger and talking to people you don't know is awkward at first." She explained. She had a point, she DID get lucky.

"Oh okay, how about you Andy?" She turned her attention to the boy standing next to her son.

"It was okay, it's different than what I expected. I have all my classes with Tyler so I'm in no rush to make any friends. Besides, I don't think Tyler would like me to make many friends. Just between me and you, He gets jealous." Andy chuckled.

"I don't get jealous, I just get protective. And you can have friends, as long as they know you're with me." Tyler said smirking.

"And Tyler, how was your day?" His mom asked him smiling.

"It was good, every second that I was there was a second closer to graduation, and best of all I was spending it with this goofball," Tyler said pointing at Andy.

"Great! Well, I made some food, if you guys are hungry we can eat right now or wait till later." Their mom said.

"I'm not hungry," Tyler and Andy said in unison. They looked at each other and laughed.

"I'm not either," Sarah said, then there was a knock on the door. Sarah walked to the door and opened it. Her eyes got huge and she couldn't speak.

"Hi, is Andy here?" David asked.

"He.. um.."

"I'm here," Andy said and hugged his best friend. "Question is, what are you doing here?"

"Well, I did say I was going to bring your stuff once you settled down. Plus I also wanted to personally give Tyler his check." David pulled out an envelope.

"I thought Andy already gave me my check," Tyler said.

"Nope, it was a fake. Didn't you even check it? What Andy gave you was a letter I wrote. But he didn't know that." David handed Tyler then envelope.

"You sneaky bastard." Andy chuckled.

"What can I say? I like that you two are together." David smiled.

"Thank you, David. Means a lot." Tyler said.

"I have a proposition for you Tyler. I saw that you play the guitar and Andy told me that you sing too. How would you like to start a band with me? Andy will be in it too if he wants. He can sing too you know."

"Oh I know, he sang to me."

"He did what?" David was taken back.

"He sang to me," Tyler repeated.

"Wow, it took me a lot of years to get him to sing me happy birthday, but it only took you 3 months for him to sing to you," David said impressed.

"What can I say, I'm in love with him," Andy said smiling.

"Anyway about your proposition. I don't know, I decided that I wanted to study writing."

"I still yet don't know what I want to study for a career but you know me, David. Singing isn't my thing." Andy said back.

"Maybe my sister can be your partner. She loves your music and she sings really good." Tyler said smiling at his sister who was still standing amazed.

"How about during winter break I'll come here and we work on a song together. If Ellen and I both like you then we will agree to contact you."

"Oh my god, are you serious?" She asked with huge eyes.

"Totally, if Tyler thinks that you are right for the job then I'll give you a shot," David said smiling at Sarah. Their eyes met and a blush crept on Sarah's face.

"Would you like to stay for dinner David?" Tyler's mom asked as she came to the door.

"Thank you but I have to get back home. I just came to drop off the money for Tyler and Andy's stuff."

Tyler David and Andy all left to the car and started taking in Andy's stuff. When they finished Tyler was at the car with David.

"Thank you for filling in this summer. You really did a great job." David said getting into the driver's seat.

"You're welcome. You're invited to visit at any time." Tyler said and David drove off.

A few months later.

"Wow those are some really nice pictures you have there," Tyler commented as he passed by Andy working on his photography homework.

"Really? Thanks. I think I want to become a photographer." Andy said still scrolling down his pictures.

"Do it, you'll do amazing," Tyler said sitting down looking at himself in the mirror. Andy came up and sat next to him. They looked in the mirror and saw themselves. Saw what they have become.

Tyler grabbed Andy's hand. His fingers intertwined with his boyfriend's. Andy laid his head on Tyler's shoulder and closed his eyes.

"You're amazing," Andy said softly.

"Thank you," Tyler said smiling.

"Can I be the first person to get your autograph?" Andy asked smiling back.

"Autograph? For what?" Tyler asked confused.

"You got the email today. They're publishing your book." Andy said sitting up.

Tyler's mouth opened but no words came out. He ran to his laptop and quickly went to his email. A few minutes later he closed his laptop and turned around slowly.

"They're actually publishing my book. I can't believe it." Tyler was in awe.

"What was your book about? You didn't let me read it." Andy said walking towards Tyler.

"You."

"What about me?"

"No, the book, it was about you. About us."
