Teacher of the Year • Brallon [ON HOLD]

"olives on a lemon tree"

"Knox, stop it!" Dallon gasped and brought his hands up in defense as a wave of rainbow glitter erupted up from Amelie's arts and crafts bottle.

Dallon stood in shock at the mess of shining glitter all over the floor.
Knox giggled and Amelie fumed stomping her foot on the floor. "Knoxy that's my glitter!"

Dallon face palmed as another shiny wave of glitter fanned over all three of them. Dallon tensed, his eyes wide as he saw Amelie's dress coated and her hair raining pink across her face. Knox simply giggled and darted away.

"Oh brother." Dallon sighed deeply. The doorbell rung and Dallon's stomach twisted anxiously as he turned towards the clock; 2:30pm. They're going to be late.

Dallon trudged over to the door, not bothering to examine the person through the peephole and twisted the knob open.

"Oh."

Dallon's breath caught in his throat as he saw Brendon in a red suit with a black tie, a matching hankercheif puffed in his chest pocket. Brendon erupted jnto a fit of laughter. "Okay so we're doing that now?"  He shrugged of his suit jacket "I didn't get the unicorn memo." Brendon teased.

Dallon dragged his hand across his face, holding the door open for his partner to enter through. "You look stunning." The blue eye'd man complimented with a smile before leaning down to peck Brendon's lips quickly but passionately.

A loud gasp came from behind them. Dallon turned as Brendon looked over his shoulder seeing a small glitter-covered girl with pigtails and wide blue eyes. A small boy tumbled in behind her with a torn suit, holding a barbeque drumstick tight in his fist. Brendon's mouth uplifted into a small soft smile as he crouched beside Dallon so that he and the two small children where relative height.

"Hey there, i'm Brendon."

Amelie looked hesitant. She glanced up at her father who folded his arms with a smile, watching the exchange skeptically. This was the first time his kids where meeting Brendon, and they could only hope for the best from both sides. Dallon nodded.

Now Knox, being the venturer of the family ran over and braced Brendon tightly. Amelie smiled and slowly walked over watching the new adult carefully.

"My names Amelie." She said quietly. Knox was now in Brendons lap cuddling into the red silk of his suit. Brendon looked down at his lap, then up at Dallon.

The fathers' heart was full. Brendon's eyes sparkled with a growing smile on his face.

"Do you love my daddy?" Amelie asked suddenly, taking both of them off guard. Brendon studied the young girl seriously, and without hesitation he replies

"Yes. I do love your father very much."

Dallon looked down at Brendon with an expression he couldn't identify. Amelie jumped up and down excitedly, glitter falling down her hair in waves getting everyone in proximity cloaked.

"So, what about the wedding?"
Dallon cleared his throat as Brendon stood up still holding a sleeping Knox tightly in his arms.

Brendon shrugged. "We can make it to the after service. Where they cut the cake and party- you know, the fun stuff."

Amelie perked up at the mention of cake. Dallon raised an eyebrow, "sure, but do you really want to miss the ceremony?"

"They'll have it live."

"Oh?" Dallon looked down at Amelie. "So how about lunch, maybe some candy and we can watch the ceremony from home then relax for a sec then get dressed again to go?" Dallon suggested breifly, gesturing to his glitter covered clothes.

Brendon smiled at his idea. "Sounds great. You're a good strategist."

"It's kind of my job." Dallon shrugged.

It didn't take long to put Knox to bed and get Amelie settled on the couch with a turkey sandwich and  soda pop to wash it down. Dallon sat beside Brendon and Amelie sat in between the two adults. Brendon turned on the television after hooking up his phone to the TV that displayed the live video.

"Who's that?" Amelie pointed to the screen. Dallon glanced over at Brendon, not knowing the complete answer himself.

"My best friend Sarah, and that's her fiancee Meghan."

"Do they love each other?"

"Mhm."

The preist spoke a few more words before the ring bearer, a small curly haired blonde boy presented the golden rings.

"That's Meghan's son Saint." Brendon informed. Amelie looked up at him confused.

"Saints father died a few years ago after his birth. Meagan felt better enough to find someone to love again after some time and now she's with Sarah."

Dallon nudged Amelie to get her attention for a moment. "She's bisexual, meaning she likes both boys and girls."

Brendon nodded. "Sarahs lesbian- women only."

Amelie's orb of confusion deflated and her mind focused back on the television.

Dallon smiled over at Brendon who returned the favor, just moments before the audience began to cheer. The couple where kissing, sealing their vow of love and Amelie clapped along with her fathers.

Brendon reached for the popcorn bowl, held it in the air and tipped it over. Dallon gasped as popcorn ran down his shirt and flooded his hair. Amelie giggled and grasped for the candy. Knox soon woke up from the commotion and laughed bubbily as Brendon scooped him off the ground and spun him around in the air.

Dallon watched with soft eyes, his eyes tugging up with his smile. He threw a kernel at Brendons head with shocking accuracy causing for the two to stumble and fall back onto the couch.

Laughter filled the air and the adults hearts where full. The children soon fell asleep and the live turned off as they prepared for the afterparty.

Brendon's head was on Dallon's  lap. Neither of them where asleep, just relishing in each others company.

"I'm having a really good time."
Dallon says, breaking the silence.

"The day's not over yet, bub." Brendon assured with a pat on the others thigh.

"Yeah I know but still,"

The brunette sat up on his lap, wraping his arms around Dallons broad shoulders. His mischevious smirk becoming infectionous as they both grinned, staring into each others eyes.

"I havent seen Amelie laugh so hard in a really long time. There's just something about you, Mister Urie."

Brendon looked into his eyes seeing only sincerity. He blushed. Dallon's fingers roamed down to his waist.

Dallon kept his voice in a low whisper, leaning into Brendon's ear. "How about later, after the party I show you how much I really love you?"

Brendon's cheeks blushed darker, and his eyes lowered down to Dallon's lips. Seeing his gesture, Dallon leaned in, capturing Brendon's lips with his own. Brendon arched his back as Dallon tugged at his bottom lip.

They both froze as Knox's sleeping body slowly slid off the couch, slumping against the floor. They both chuckled to themselves before looking back into each others eyes.

"We'll finish this later." He whispered. Brendon agreed before getting off his lap.

Dallon stood beside them and they nodded at each other with a silent agreement. And like the professional adults they are, tickled Amelie and Knox awake.
