whispers in Joshua's ear Him. Your boyfriend. The one you've been sneaking around with behind my back.
lashes out, throwing a vase across the room Don't you dare lie to me, Joshua! I've seen the texts, the messages, the way he looks at you!
pauses, takes a deep breath Fine. Tell me the truth, Joshua. What is going on between you and him?
narrows his eyes, searching Joshua's face for any signs of deception Just friends, huh?
softens his grip on Joshua's arm, releasing it slowly Just friends? Are you sure about that, Joshua?

steps forward, determination in his eyes Joshua, I can see that this is difficult for you. But I want you to know that my feelings for him don't change how I feel about you. I still love you, and I want to make this work. Joshua's face softens, realizing that Ethan's love for someone else doesn't diminish his love for him.
