Scott still remembered the very first time meeting Amanda’s teacher. Mr. Vega had called Scott to the school for a meeting, obviously to discuss Amanda and her recent behaviour in school. He happened to sleep in that day, and ended up running late. Thankfully, Mr. Vega didn’t mind.

When he first laid eyes on the middle school/high school teacher, he felt his heart flutter. He was expecting some sort of stereotypical teacher persona, who was strict, and unfriendly. But he was greeted with nearly the exact opposite.

“Is everything alright with Amanda?” Was the first question that was out of Scott’s mouth, the concerned tone obvious in his voice. “Did something happen, Mr. Vega?” He added on, unsure of what to call him.

“Please. Call me Hugo.” Mr. Vega, now known as Hugo, greeted himself, once the two were in the classroom and away from prying eyes. He closed the door behind him, before turning to look at Scott. He stuck out his hand for the other to shake.

“Scott.” He replied, taking Hugo’s hand in his own and giving it a firm handshake. “It’s nice to meet you, Hugo.” He added on, a small smile on his lips.

The conversation that followed was a usual teacher parent sort of conference. Nothing too out of the ordinary. Scott was relieved to find out that Amanda was indeed okay, but was not pleased to find out that she had been falling behind in her work slightly.

That wasn’t what had shocked Scott.

It was during the first barbeque when Scott was in for a surprise. He saw quite a few people that he had already met including his old college roommate Craig, Brian from the park, Mat from the coffee shop, and… Amanda’s teacher, Mr. Vega. That was the one that shocked him the most. All of these people that he had already met lived in the cul-de-sac?

For some reason, Scott was drawn to Hugo the most. He wanted to go over and talk to him but he didn’t want to make things awkward between Hugo and Amanda, even if it was only for a few more months.

Before he could stop himself though, his legs were carrying him over towards the English teacher, and, as they say, the rest was history.

It was eight months into their relationship when the three words make it out of Hugo’s mouth first. It caught Scott off-guard, but his heart swelled with pride, hope, and his own amount of love. He could listen to Hugo say those words repeatedly, and he’d never get tired of it.

“I love you.” Hugo had whispered. The setting hadn’t exactly been the most romantic, but neither of them had seemed to care. Scott’s head was resting against Hugo’s chest, as the two cuddled on the couch at the Vega’s household while watching one of their favourite movies. Or, while Scott watched the movie and Hugo stole glances at the other male.

Scott had fallen so hard for the English teacher. It was obvious to anyone that knew them.  He certainly wasn’t expecting to hear Hugo say them first. But it didn’t make his heart any less happy. He knew they were bound to come out eventually. He turned his head enough to be able to look up at him, a light blush and a bright smile showing on his face. “I love you too, Hugo.” He whispered out in return.

Hugo moved one of his hands up to Scott’s face, caressing the other’s cheek in a gentle way. Scott shifted in the other’s arms, so that they could face each other a bit easier. Their eyes were still locked as Hugo leaned in, closing the gap between them. Both pairs of eyes slipped shut as they shared a pleasant kiss together.

Scott could have sworn he felt the exact same sparks that he had felt all those months ago when they had shared their first kiss.

It had been two years into their relationship. By now, Amanda’s onto her third year of college, Ernest had slowly started to accept the fact that his father was dating Scott, and the four, or rather five due to the dog they now owned, lived together.

It was on a quiet Saturday afternoon, when it was just the two of them, and Scott couldn't resist himself. He was watching Hugo grade some papers at the kitchen table, while he brewed some coffee for them. He couldn’t help but to think about how absolutely adorable Hugo looked in normal clothing, dressed in some sleep pants, and a baggy wrestling shirt with his hair pulled up into a ponytail. “Can I ask you a question, Hugo?” He asked, a slight smile on his lips.

Hugo paused his grading to glance up at Scott, a confused look on his face. He pushed his glasses up the bridge of his nose to adjust them, before he spoke up. “I believe you just did, sweetheart.” He replied, sending a wink the other’s way.

Scott gave Hugo an ‘Are you kidding me?’ look, shaking his head a bit. “I swear, over the years you’ve seemed to pick up on Ernest’s attitude.” He joked, bringing the two coffee mugs over to the table. One, of course, was a wrestling themed mug for Hugo, while the other one was dog themed for Scott. “You know what I meant.” He added, handing Hugo’s mug to him.

“Thanks.” Hugo hummed out, putting his pen off to the side to take the warm mug from him. He took a small sip of it, the warmth almost instantly spreading throughout him. “Now, what was your question?” He asked, brushing a few pieces of stray hair off of his face.

“I was just wondering…” Scott began, a mischievous look on his face. It was one that he was sure Hugo knew all too well. One that usually meant a Dad pun was to follow. “Did it hurt?” He asked, the genuine concern in his voice catching them both off guard.

Hugo gave Scott a confused look at first, before realization washed over him. He couldn’t help but to roll his eyes at the classic line. “Let me guess. When I fell from Heaven?” He asked, before taking another sip of his coffee.

“No.” Scott replied, taking a seat in the empty kitchen chair that was across from his boyfriend. He took a gentle sip of his own coffee, mentally cursing himself when he managed to burn the top of his mouth. Just his luck.

That seemed to stop Hugo in his tracks, the warm mug still pressed to his lips. He frowned and pulled it away, putting it down to give Scott a look. “What?” He asked, now thoroughly confused yet again.

Scott’s face broke out into a grin, as Hugo had walked right into his trap. The burning sensation in his mouth a little less intense by now. “When you fell for me?” He asked, the grin still spread across his lips.

Hugo actually let out a laugh when he heard that, having not been expecting it. He put down his mug, before he stood up from his seat to walk over to Scott. He took the mug out of his boyfriend’s hand, placing it off to the side before he sat down on his lap, carefully, and pulled him into a gentle kiss. “Not when I had you there to catch me.”
