Of course I remember (Ded)Max! He has a boyfriend?
…
Is this a good thing? Who’s his boyfriend?
Uh…
*He hesitantly raises his hand*
I- uh.. I guess that boyfriend would be me…
Oh – you? You’re Neil, right? *smiles at the child*
Uh, Y-yes Sir! *He let out a quiet, nervous chuckle*
Nice to meet you! I’m Carlos the Scientist. *he offers the kid a hand to shake*
It’s nice to meet you too, Carlos..! *He shook Carlos’ hand, smiling softly up at him*
So how are you and Max doing?
Well, uh, p-pretty good! We only started dating yesterday but.. it-it’s going pretty well!
Oh that’s good. You should know, dating is to help you to get to know each other. I hope you two have fun.
