[$] I'm in love with my bully.

[ShadowEternal]

Roy took a slice and bit out of it. "Hm, it's good, but... I never had many opportunities to eat due to my boxing. High school or no, coach is serious about getting us used to watching our calories." He explained, deciding to put some red pepper on his slice.  

[Captain tohru honda]

"I'll eat what you don't" Tyler said with a grin. "So he's pretty serious huh?" Tyler asked,adding parmesan and red pepper to his next slice.  

[ShadowEternal]

A smile came to Roy's face at Tyler's understanding. "Thanks, but I won't ruin your body for not eating. Oh, I know! Want to come on my runs with me? We'll start out small, and go further as you get more used to it. How about it?"  

[Captain tohru honda]

"That sounds fun. We can spend more time together that way too." Tyler said,smiling. He took a drink of his water and then finished his second slice,grabbing another one after.  

[ShadowEternal]

Roy nodded his head, ceasing the talk to focus on eating. After three slices, he called it quits since he could practically feel the fat build up. "I'm going to ask Ryan something real quick."

Standing, he walked over to the other couple. "Um, hey, bro... I just...I need to talk. Alone."  

[Captain tohru honda]

"Damion,would you keep Tyler company for a bit?" Ryan asked and gave him a parting kiss as he left the table. "Go ahead. I'm all your's." Ryan said gesturing to the empty chair across from him.  

[ShadowEternal]

Damion nodded his head and went over to where Tyler sat. "So, champ, any plays to woo Roy? Our are you two still trying to deal with first base?" He teased.

Roy sat down, shifting in his seat a little. "Bro...I just wanted to know...are you serious about having Damion's kid? Does he know that you really can?" He kept his voice in a low whisper.  

[Captain tohru honda]

"Well of course. I wouldn't have kept that from him for all these years." Ryan said. "But I don't want to go through the hormone treatments. We're gonna get a surrogate. And if you accept,you can be his or her godfather." Ryan said with a smile.  

[ShadowEternal]

Roy sighed, one worry taken cared of. "A godfather, huh? Well, I don't see why not." He then frowned, twiddling his thumbs. "I still can't believe that you and I inherited this gene from mom. Though, you have have the opposite problem than me. The last time I saw the doc for my suppression medicine, they actually suggested I find a partner anyway since my hormone levels have risen again." He groaned, glaring off into the distance. "If only we could switch, huh?"  

[Captain tohru honda]

"Do you want them to rise?" Ryan asked. "Also when you and Tyler get serious enough you should tell him,ok?" Ryan said,placing a supportive hand over Roy's.  

[ShadowEternal]

Roy shook his head fervently. "Of course not. I don't want another innocent like middle school..." He sighed, looking Tyler's way. "I...I want to be the person he sees in me. But I worry, about what he'll do when my medicine starts to fail when my levels spike again. I don't think I'm ready to be that vulnerable with someone. And I know for a fact that I don't want children for myself like you do."  

[Captain tohru honda]

"Wat is somewhere down the line,Tyler does?" Ryan asked softly. "How do I woo Roy?" Tyler asked after a few minutes of thinking.
[[totally forgot to post Tyler's response. lol]]  

[ShadowEternal]

"Then we'll adopt. Ryan I...this trait of ours...it's not something I want to put someone else through. Ever. Just thinking about it scares me more than what...almost happened to you before Damion..."

Damion chuckled. "Well, he's a lot like Ryan, so firstly, he's going to need a lot of encouragement. And he won't like surprises at first, but will warm up to them the more he comes to like you." He then tapped a finger to his chin. "Oh, and find out what his favorite food is. I know you two aren't there yet, but Ryan gets this...comfy feeling to him after eating that's just perfect for some quality time."  

[Captain tohru honda]

"I was scared back then too,but Damion save me. I love him so much." Ryan said and gave a comforting squeeze to Roy's hand."I love you and I am so proud of you for going down the right path."  

[ShadowEternal]

{Tyler.}

Roy looked down at their hands and then at his brother's face. "You really think Tyler is the one for me, don't you? Why? How? How are you so sure when I'm just riddled with fears and self-doubt?" Sure, Damion coming into his brother's life had changed him, but...was it so much that Ryan had practically become a different person from the brother of his childhood?
