They were all sitting around on the deck laughing as most of the kids splashed in the pond. Tanner watched Nico with Stefan. He was very well aware his feelings had become something more than hero worship or puppy love; he had gotten his first erection thinking about Nico. That had been a very long discussion with his father. Tanner knew he was gay, he and Colin had talked about it one night, and both of them had the same feelings. One night when they were on the phone until two in the morning, he had told Nico he was gay. Nico had laughed and told him he was in good company.

Nico’s strong biceps were flexing and Tanner was certain he was drooling. He had decided to wait to go swimming until it got cooler; he was sitting on the deck with Colin and all the adults when Nico’s cell phone started vibrating. Tanner picked it up and opened it. There was a picture of a guy on it, and Tanner swiped ‘talk’.

“Hello?”

“Nico?”

“No, he’s swimming right now. Who is this?”

“This is Giovanni, Nico’s boyfriend.”

Tanner’s gut dropped and he nearly threw up. “I’ll tell him you called.”

Colin noticed Tanner’s face, he took his hand and asked, “What is it?”

“That was Nico’s boyfriend,” Tanner choked out. “I think I want to go home.”

Colin hugged him and Tanner left to find his father. Nikolai came up on the deck and collapsed in Colin’s arms. Colin held him close and kissed his forehead. Nikolai looked into Colin’s beautiful brown eyes and almost sighed. He felt Colin’s arms around him and buried his face in his neck.

“You okay?”

“Jet lagged,” Nikolai muttered.

Colin stroked his face; the urge to kiss Nikolai was nearly irresistible. “Let’s get you inside for a little bit.”

Phoebe had taken a walk around the pond and saw Stefan on the other side, skipping rocks. She wasn’t sure if she should talk to him or not; in the end she went over to him and sat down.

“How are you?”

“I’m surviving.”

“We can still be friends,” Phoebe said. The truth was she felt stupid. A malicious kiss from a sleazy girl had destroyed her relationship and now she didn’t know how to fix it with her pride standing in the way.

“I guess that’s all we’ll ever be.” Stefan stood up. He knew he was going to cry and he wasn’t going to do it in front of her. “See you later.”

Phoebe watched him walk away with his head down and sighed. “I still love you,” she whispered.

Tyler was dealing with a very emotional twin and told Damon he could stay if he wanted. In the end, his brother wanted to go home with him. Tanner smiled. Damon always had his back. Nico came back to the deck looking for Tanner and saw Colin coming back out of the house.

“Where’s Tanner?”

“He took off when your boyfriend called.” Colin cocked an eyebrow.

“My what?” Nico checked his phone. “Oh, no.”

“He’s not your boyfriend?”

“No he’s my friend and a boy. A boy who doesn’t speak English well.
