"Hey, dad." Scott says, into the phone.

"Hey, Scott! What's up?"

"I, uhh," Scott laughs, "I have to ask you something."

"Anything," Rick says.

"When did you know that you wanted to marry mom?"

Rick stops in his tracks. Scott's sexual orientation has always been a rough topic for him and Scott to talk about. He's been dating this boy Mark for quite a while now, though.

"Well, uh—"

"It's okay if you don't want to talk about it. I just...I—I want to marry Mark, dad."

"I, uh, I don't know what to say."

"It's just, I can't picture myself with anyone else. And I know you're not exactly happy with the fact that I'm gay, but I love him, dad. I love him with everything I have. And I want to marry him and start a family with him, and love him for the rest of my life. But I can't bring myself to do it until...until you approve of it. I just, dad, I love him."

"It was when she had the flu one time. I was taking care of her, and—"

"What?"

"I knew I wanted to marry your mom when she had the flu one time, and I was taking care of her, and it was the fact that she still had her sense of humor that did it for me."

"That's really sweet."

"So tell me about Mark." Rick says.

"What?"

"What was the moment that confirmed it for you? When did you know you wanted to marry Mark?"

"A few months back we had planned to go out for a date," Scott says, "but we ended up cancelling to just watch some movies and eat pizza. And I looked over at him, while we were watching a movie, and he says, 'What are you looking at, you cheesy shit?', and that was when I knew."

Rick laughs.

"So? What do you think?" Scott asks.

Rick sighs. "I think that you really love this boy, Scott."

"I really do, dad."

"If you're happy marrying him, I'm happy that you're happy."

Scott grins before he thanks his dad and hangs up the phone.

"Hey, baby," Mark says as he sees Scott enter the apartment.

"Hey, Marky," Scott says. He's nervous.

"What's the matter?" Mark asks, walking up to Scott. "Everything okay?"

Scott breathes out shakily.

But then he looks at Mark, the concern in his eyes, and he relaxes.

"Yeah. I just, uh, I got off the phone with my dad and I couldn't wait any longer to ask. Marky, will you marry me?" Scott asks, reaching into his pocket to pull out a ring box.

Mark gasps. "Oh my god, Scotty." Tears flow down his cheeks. "Yeah, I'll marry you. Of course I'll marry you."

Scott smiles, and puts the ring on Mark's finger. "I love you." He kisses him once.

"I love you too," Mark says, in awe of the situation. "Your dad is okay with us getting married?"

Scott nods. "He said if I'm happy he'll be happy for me."

"Oh, baby," Mark wraps his arms around Scott's neck. "I'm so proud of you for talking to him."

"It's all worth it if I get to marry you," Scott says.

"Scotty," Mark blushes, and attempts to wipe his tears, "I don't deserve you."

"If anything, I don't deserve you, baby.
