About half an hour after Vance told us about his past, Finney fell asleep against me. I had my arm loosely wrapped around his torso, and made sure not to add too much pressure on any part of his torso. Vance smiled at me as he still sat in the chair.

"What are you smiling at?" I asked him.

"You do know about Finney being gay, right?" He asked me.

I nodded my head back to him. "I accept him."

"Good," Vance said. "I would not hesitate to beat the shit out of you if you didn't."

I nodded my head back to him as I looked down at the sleeping boy against me. I felt my heart speed up, and a weird feeling in my stomach as I looked at him. I knew that the feeling was from my crush on him.

"Can I tell you something?" I asked Vance.

"Sure," Vance said.

"I think I'm gay," I told him.

"Seeing how touchy you have been with Finn doesn't surprise me at all," Vance said.

I felt my face heat up as I looked over towards Vance quickly. He looked at me with a knowing look, and I felt slightly more embarrassed.

"Is it that obvious?" I asked him.

He shook his head. "I figured something has been going on between you two since the party. You two were being slightly weird around each other."

I nodded my head back to him as I looked at Finney once again. As I looked at him, I remembered us hear Matty and one of his friends in the field. I slowly looked up at Vance as guilt slowly took over my body.

"I think I know what lead to this," I said as I pointed towards Finney.

"What happened?" Vance asked.

"Finney and I were in a field during the party. We kissed, and Finney pulled away because he had heard someone say Matty's name," I said. "I think Matty might've told Finney's dad."

"Wait, you two kissed?" Vance asked, sounding confused.

"That's all you got from that?" I asked him.

"No, but still. I'm shocked," he said.

I rolled my eyes at him, before continuing. "If I'm right, I'm going to beat the shit out that puta."

"I'll let you have that one. I got his dad," Vance said.

I smiled and laughed slightly at the same time as I looked at Vance. I looked down at Finney (for the thousands time) before looking at Vance.

"Where is Finney and Gwen going to stay?" I asked him.

"I've talked to my mom, and she said that they both can stay with us," he said back to me.

I nodded my head back to him. It made me feel better knowing that Finney and Gwen were going to be with someone I can trust. I wouldn't feel safe with Finney and Gwen going to some random home to live with people they didn't, and I didn't know.

"When Finn is out of here, I'm going to take Gwen and him back to their house to get some of their stuff," Vance told me.

"That's nice of you," I said.

"I want them to be as comfortable as possible in our home," Vance said.

"You have a soft spot for them, don't you?" I asked with a small smile.

"Maybe a little one," Vance said.

I smiled as I looked down at the sleeping boy against me.

"It's okay," I said. "I have one for them too."
