The rest of the evening played out as normal. Easy. Simple. Even if it everything was complicated as all hell on the inside for Colin.
They ate their food, Colin gobbling down most of it with Dexter still making his comments on how he didn’t understand where it all ended up. They joked around. They laughed. Colin made plenty of lewd comments and Dexter rolled his eyes at him. They ended up on the couch watching television, Dexter’s head in Colin’s lap. Colin found it hilarious to tie ends of Dexter’s hair together. They cuddled. Cuddling led to making out. They finally fell asleep. Dexter stayed the night.
The weekend saw plenty of people coming over. Shaun and Liz were there both Saturday and Sunday afternoon, Maya stopping by a little bit both days. Mr. and Mrs. Thomas and Ms. Carter came over Saturday afternoon. Everyone brought platters of food. Daisuke and Maddie came both together twice and then once separately. Dexter stayed the whole time.
