Chapter 227

Scooter sighed. He was going to kill Roni. This was trouble he didn’t need.

“This again?” Andy came the rest of the way into the bedroom and pulled Scooter into a hug. “I think everyone’s going to figure out that you’re gay when we come in together, honey.” It was always just a little disconcerting when Andy and Roni seemed to share the same brain.

Scooter sighed. “It’s not that, baby doll,” he said. “Everyone knows I’m gay. Everyone has known I’m gay since I was a teenager. It’s just…we’re parents now. We need to look. Parental.” He sighed, then looked at himself in the mirror as he pulled on his jacket. At least he wasn’t still giving off serious twink vibes; he’d nurtured that underfed, wide-eyed look for a long time. That wasn’t who he wanted to look like anymore. He wondered if straight parents had this problem; that someone was going to look at them with their kid and think “nope, that’s not a responsible adult, that’s a faker, someone take the kid away.”
