   Summary

   Listen, Hayden is aware of how hard it is to see past his baby face and his lack of stubble and his generally jovial demeanor. But he has four kids, okay? He’s not an idiot.

   or

   5 times Hayden suspected Shane was gay + 1 time Hayden knew for sure he was. With Ilya Rozanov, no less.
