Filled: Eduardo/Cameron PART 1

[campscoline7373]

Edurado consires himself to be an open-minded person.

After all, he is jewish, american brazilian-born and gay. A lot of people have preconcieved ideas about him because of it, (and no, he can’t dance the tango, no matter what his genes say,) so it would be hypocrite of him to make presomptions on people just because they fit a a type.

Still, however much he loves Cameron, he is not blind to the fact that not only he fits a type but also a lot of cliches.

He is the typical WASP. Arian good looks, old money, successfull buisnessman and athlete. His family is the picture-perfect american family dream: successfull father, beautifull stay-in mother and two handsome happy children.

Eduardo is the blot on that picture.

He know the Winklewoss love their children and have (to) accepte Cameron’s relationship with him. Acceptance and enjoyement, however, are not the same thing. They would probably have prefered for Cameron to love a sweet beautifull girl rather than Eduardo.
Eduardo doesn’t blame them. That’s what he would have prefered for Cameron, too.

Who doesn’t want the best for the person they love?

Edurado wishes Cameron had everything handed to him easily because he deserves everything.
He wishes Cameron didn’t have to present the person he love at parties and be face with that freezing expression across people faces (associates, acquaintances, strangers...). He wishes Cameron could take him to dinner and hold his hand without that fleeting moue of distaste from the waiter (before it is masked, or not, by a look at Cameron built, their expensive suits, the manager of the restaurant...).

But this is not how it is because Cameron loves him, he loves Cameron and they are both males.

The best he can do is spare Cameron from what he can, including witnessing that half-second expression of distaste on his parents’ faces.

Because Eduardo knows better than anyone how it feels.
