Nice flex, but I don't fuck with all the vanity
Silently the hand balled up in his shirt relaxes and reaches out for one of Finn's. Ever doesn't break their eye contact, but something in him relaxes to feel his Dad's large hand around his. Even if he isn't married to his mom. Hearing only you're wrong in Finn's words, Ever swallows, and is almost surprised when his dad continues speaking.
"Well...no. I know if you were married we would be apart sometimes. But it means you always come back together." He says adamantly. "Its...marriage is about the future, right? About things you promise to do in time's that aren't right now." Ever adds. "That's why it's okay that Mateo is here, and his Dads are there. Because marriage means it isn't that way forever. Because if they weren't married, then..well then you would never know." He reasons, before deciding to switch tactics.
"So if marrying mom doesn't mean more guitar or less homework, and it doesn't mean things for you...then...why wouldn't you?"
