Drabble: Prom Dance
OK, I'm definitely on a Queer as Folk kick. Here's another that I wrote for qaf_drabbles.
Title: Prom Dance

Rating: PG (for language)
Disclaimer: Daphne, Justin, and his prom date all belong to Cowlip.
Prompt: Season One
Two steps forward, one step back. It's like a fucking dance. Every time I start getting somewhere with Brian, every time I find a way around one of his defensive barriers, he shoves me back so I have to find my footing again. I don't need my own missteps to make things even worse-and fuck, did I misstep this time. I want him to treat me like adult, and I invited him to my prom. What a major fucking misstep.
Daphne laughs in my ear, "You're a better dancer since you came out." Then, "Look, he came after all."
