Re: They really should have expected this (5a/?)

[anonymous]

Lunch with Katie and Angel a few days later was uncomfortable, to say the least. They’d rehearsed their lines, Colin had even gone so far as to write a little script for them, but really it hadn’t gone well.

“Well cheers!” Katie was already on her second drink by the time the boys arrived.

“Yes, cheers! Well done Colin for getting that movie part!” Angel chimed in.

Colin and Bradley exchanged a glance.

“That’s actually not what we’re celebrating...”

“Not the only thing,” added Colin.

They looked at each other, and then simultaneously held out their left hands for the girls to see, matching rings clearly displayed. They were met with complete silence. The silence turned awkward.

“Sorry, what” Katie broke the silence.

“We got married.”

“Yeah sorry, I’m still not getting this.”

“Bradley and I got married. Last week.”

“Married married?”

“Yup.”

“Last week?”

“Yes.”

“To each other?”

“Yes... Who else would we get married to?”

“Anybody else?!”

“Somebody female?” Angel had finally found her voice. “I mean, you aren’t gay. Neither of you are gay. You’ve never shown the slightest interest in a member of the male species. So why would you marry each other?”

Colin shot Bradley an indecipherable look, and opened his mouth to reply. But no sound came out. Bradley jumped in instead.

“Well actually... I dated a guy when I was in uni. His name was Max. We were together for 8 months.”

Colin looked more stunned that the girls did. Nobody spoke, so Bradley continued, trying to recall Colin’s script.

“We’ve been seeing each other since last year, we actually got together at Colin’s birthday party. And yes, we’ve kept it quiet. But can you blame us? Imagine what the fans would be like if they found out we were dating... They’re bad enough with all the bromance. And we weren’t sure where it was going, how serious it was. But I think by this summer we knew that this was it, that we really were serious.”

Bradley trailed off, looking at Colin imploringly, not wanting to have this “discussion” all by himself.

Colin cleared his throat self-consciously. “Once we realised how serious we really were, we tried to tell you...”

“What? No you didn’t. I think we would have remembered that.”

Colin didn’t seem inclined to speak again so Bradley answered. “When we were at the pub, for Katie’s birthday. And we went to register an intent for a civil partnership. We took you along with us, how much more obvious did we need to be?”

Both girls looked completely nonplussed for a moment, before Katie replied.

“Don’t lie to us James. That was just a joke. You were angry, not in love, we’re not stupid.”

“Yeah, we’re not falling for this boys.”

Bradley rolled his eyes, and dug out the backpack he had brought with him for precisely this purpose. He pulled out the marriage certificate and passed it over to the girls.

“You two are married...”

“Really married?”

“Yes”, they both replied, twining their hands together.

“Oh, wow.”
