Awkward silence reigned supreme in their bedroom at that moment. Gilbert had never in his life felt that much like a deer in the headlights. His chance at a good first impression with his boyfriend's parents had all but flown completely out the window.

Knowing that his parents were okay with them lifted such a burden from the blond's shoulders that he finally felt he could let his guard down and be as relaxed with Gilbert in front of his parents as he was when it was just the two of them. "Don't worry though, ema. There's nothing to worry about now." He turned back towards the screen, taking a few shaky breaths to calm himself
