Ruggie and Kalim are making out on the bed when Ruggie’s phone started ringing.
He tried to ignore it but once it went off for the third time, it was just spoiling the mood. “You should probably see who it is. What if it’s urgent?" Kalim said breathlessly while looking at the night stand. Ruggie groaned. “If they’re calling this much, it better be something important.” Ruggie reluctantly got off Kalim and sat at the edge of the bed, picked up his phone, answered and put it to his ear.
“Hello?”
“YOU LITTLE BITCH!”
The voice on the other side had yelled it so loudly that RUggie had flinched and quickly put it away from his ear. Kailm could hear the yelling too, which made him turn to look at Ruggie. “Ow. What the hell happened to ‘hello’?”
“Shut it. You knew about Cheka’s boyfriend and didn’t say anything?” It was very clear that Leona was furious not because of the yelling but the amount of anger that was as clear as day in his tone.
“WHAT!? NO! OF COURSE NOT! I’d 100% tell you or his dad.”
“I did tell you. It was a few years ago.” RUggie knew that it was Cheka talking now.
“You’re misremembering then, cause I don’t remember you ever telling me about a boyfriend.”
“I did though! Don’t you remember when I told you about the boy that held my hand during the blackout?” Ruggie’s face went to slow realization. That happened in 3rd grade, Cheka was so happy to talk about his new ‘boyfriend’. Of course, Ruggie didn’t take it seriously, cause 8 year olds say stuff all the time. “Oh.”
“In my defense, he was like 9 when it happened. You can’t expect me to take a 3rd graders word for it.”
“Fair.” Cheka said.
“Alright, now that that’s cleared up, go to bed.” Leona told Cheka. “And you. Don’t ever keep stuff like that from me ever again.” Leona hung up.
Ruggie put his phone down and sighed. “What happened?” Kalim crawled over to Ruggie. “Just Leona being pissed off that he has a teenage nephew."
“Oh, what happened with Cheka?”
“Apparently Cheka has a boyfriend and apparently has had said boyfriend for 5 years.” Kalim looked shocked. “5 years?!”
“RIGHT! And Leona was pissed that I didn’t take it seriously when Cheka had told me about this boy when he was 8.”
“Well maybe just tell him when Cheka says stuff like that next time.”
“Alright, I’ll try not to brush it off too much.” Ruggie said as he pulled Kalim close for a kiss.
