Roast pork that smelled divine, lots of side dishes, ham, cheese, sweets and pies that were enough for 15 people, but would only serve 8 people, assorted drinks and juices, coca-cola, eggnog, fruits and nuts, were on an improvised table in the middle of the room. All the furniture had been dragged aside, and Theo's “family” was all together to celebrate the beginning of a new year, which everyone hoped would be better and less stressful.Theo and Sebastian welcome Hana and her suspicious boyfriend. Sek also joined them. Alex and Paul accompanied Alex's old nanny, so she wouldn't be watching television alone.Everyone sat down to dinner when it was still 7 o'clock in the afternoon. Theo and Sebastian received great praise.They were very good cooks.Among everyone present, Sek joked about being the only single person and asked Alex's old nanny to be his girlfriend for the nigth, as she was also alone.

- I like that you trust me, and tell me your past, but what does that have to do with Edmund?- Edmund is not Daniel, but when he was there screaming and hitting Hanna, I swear it was Daniel I saw. I don't know if it's my imagination due to the similarity of the gestures, but I almost swear that that was Daniel.- It must be because of the beast's attitude. If he were the Daniel of your past, you would recognize him when you first saw him,- You must be right. But I felt weird about all this.Daniel, now Edmund, had been walking since he left Theo's house. He talked to himself like a crazy person.- Sons of bitches. How can they think they can treat people this way? Just because they are rich. Mather Fuckers. And that useless Hanna, that I hate to fuck. I have to imagine that she is Paul. Instead of doing what she can, to help me get what I want. He hides behind his brother. Bunch of faggots. Two more hetros who, in the end, are gays, just to fuck younger people's asses. And Paul, tha

Thomson gets up from his desk where he was sitting and goes to the window. For Senator Carter to call him personally to ask for something, that means something serious must happen. If there was one thing that had never happened before, it was Carter asking him for a favor. He had never before attempted to use Thomson's position for personal gain.- What can I do for you?- I hate to ask you this… let me explain the case to you. My son is in bad shape. I hate the reason why he's like this, but he's my only son and...- What's wrong with my godson?- He fell madly in love.- It was about time, don't you think? - Thomson says, laughing - and is that a problem? Who is she? Is she married? A criminal?- The problem is that it's not a she. Alex is in love with a man. Never in my life did I imagine this could happen.- Calm down Carter. This is no longer a problem nowadays. Even military personnel can now be gay. You can thank that to Obama.- I didn't want this for Alex, but I don't want to

The weeks were spent studying and playing lacrosse. The team had won the title and the coach said that the team owed him a lot, even with all the initial interruptions. The grades were excellent, as Theo didn't go to parties, he just studied. At most, I would drink coffee with the few, but good, friends I had.The weekends were spent with Sebastian, most of the time, in bed.He had spent the summer holidays in New York, and now, after almost a year, Christmas, was in Sebastian's new house, twice the size of the previous apartment.A huge aquarium, next to the door, contained some rare fish which Sebastian had bought again.Sebastian spent Thanksgiving at Cornell, with Theo, Alex and Paul. Hanna had a new boyfriend. This time someone humble but who deserved her. Sebastian made a point of investigating him without his sister knowing. She had gone to spend the holiday at her boyfriend's parents' house.Christmas was the first celebration in Sebastian's new house. Hanna and her boyfriend,

- Don't run around the house. – Theo shouts to the twins. After withdrawing himself at the age of 28, after a brilliant lacrosse career, with several championships won and several best of the year awards, Theo began working side by side with Sebastian. A few months after their wedding, they decided to look for a surrogate and were now the proud parents of a 4-year-old girl and boy who wouldn't sit still. Sebastian and Theo gave unconditional love to the two little ones, without spoiling them, and making them realize that life is hard and that we must always fight for what we want. Nothing truly good falls from the sky into our hands. Paul and Alex also had a son, a 3-year-old boy, who looked incredibly similar to the senator. Every time he saw his grandson he said that he was going to be the future president of the United States. Unfortunately, the old nanny died and was unable to care for the little one, but she met him on her deathbed. It was a very sad day, but Tina died with a
