i'm proud of you. and proud to be your boyfriend, your best friend, and anything else we are.
not only am i proud because you finally told our friends about us, but i'm proud that you didn't run.
i grabbed your hand and you squeezed mine. i smiled every time you looked at me so you wouldn't get upset at all the silence. and then ben broke it by laughing. eddie was smiling ear to ear. and everyone else was shocked.
"hey, how come i didn't know you was gay? ain't ya supposed ta tell me before you just yell it ta the whole world?"
then came the laughter. not at anything more than that ridiculous southern accent richie was trying to pull. he stood up and hugged you. and then me. the rest smiling smugly, proceeded to do the same as well. thanks richie. without him breaking the tension. who knows what you would've done. he's an alright dude in my book. now i see why eddie is so in love with him.
-sincerely, stan your man ♡
