Lord give me strength

"About yesterday-" He sets his pen down, sighing, he didn't have time for this.

"Florida, I already told you-"

"I know!" Florida cuts him off, "That was loud and I'm sorry but I meant it. I-"

"No, you don't. You're dating my sister, get out." He glares up at the other, surprised to see the other's hurt expression. "You have 1 minute-"

"I don't like your sister that way" Florida pauses.

"45 seconds." He moves to look over his papers.

"That isn't fair-" Florida huffs, "You could just say you don't feel the same."

He stops, setting the papers down and looking up, "I do, I love you and that's the problem."

Florida stares for a moment, DC can tell he's thinking, "I know what it's like, not being the first choice, but I don't love your sister. We aren't dating." Florida gives a small smile and steps forward, "I wasn't kidding and I'm not trying to be mean.

"Why me?" Florida's eyes widen slightly and he wraps an arm around DC, who leans into his side immediately.

"Why not?" He moves to hold DC's hand, "I love you, so much."

They sit like that for a while, Florida giving DC small reassurances. It would take a while, but at least they had each other.
