    “I know,” Johnny says, cupping Daniel’s jaw, thumb brushing over the curve of Daniel’s cheek.

    Daniel leans into the touch, giving Johnny a brave smile. “We’ll be okay, though, right?”

    “Yeah,” Johnny answers, giving him what he hopes is a reassuring smile. “Yeah, LaRusso, I think we’ll be okay.”

    Johnny would be lying if he said he wasn’t sure how being with Daniel was going to work when they couldn’t be this, in public, in school, around their peers. If he’s also being honest, he didn’t really think this far a head when they decided to be, well, together.
