Billy quietly watched the scene play out, a soft smile on his face. "You never told me about this," he said quietly, slipping his arm around his boyfriend's waist and leaning against him comfortably.

Teddy hadn't noticed when Billy had walked in. He pulled Billy close, needing the comfort as he watched. It was strange to feel happy and at the same time, oddly sad. "I guess I forgot," Teddy said with a small laugh. "To tell you the truth, I think she was just happy I was talking to her. A lot of the time she was the one who spoke and I just listened. I didn't want to burden her with my problems."

[actualwizard]

"Right, those sullen teenaged years," Billy teased him playfully. He was quiet for a moment watching Teddy's mom. He had a lot of find memories of spending time at Teddy's house when they first started dating. He loved Ms. Altman, how easy she was to talk to, how open she was with them. It was always refreshing. He loved his own mother, more than anything but she was always spouting psychological facts at him or trying to do something she read in a study without actually listening to him sometimes. Then again she knew thing about Billy before Billy seemed to know them so there was no need to listen.

"I miss her too."

[hulk_ling]

Teddy leaned his head down to rest on Billy's head. He closed his eyes, listening to the song his mother was humming. Of course he knew Billy missed her. Mother had taken a lot from the both of them but it couldn't kill the affection they both had to his real Mom. Nobody could touch her style, her personality, her warmth.

"I know," he said softly. "I think she would have been happy to know that her prediction of His and His towels wasn't far off. She always knew there was something special about you. I'd like to say it's genetic to love you - or maybe you just have some weird alien pheromone that makes you irresistible."

[actualwizard]

Billy laughed. "I hope I don't have weird alien pheromones. Then I'd have a bunch of you weirdos flocking to me." He poked Teddy playfully in the side. "I think she just knew how to read you."

[hulk_ling]

"Don't you already have a bunch of weirdos surrounding you?" Teddy teased back, catching Billy's hand. "She... she was special. I just really wish I could have told her that."

Teddy took a long pause, looking at his mom before he turned to Billy once more. "Ok, enough nostalgia. I think it's time to visit your room. I can't be the only one with the trip down memory lane."

[actualwizard]

"Just you," Billy teased squeezing Teddy's hand reassuringly. "She knew how much you loved her and how special you thought she was. She knew Teddy."

Billy grinned looking up at him. "Oh you'll love that. It's our first kiss. You know when I freaked out and fell off the bed. The most embarrassing moment of my life?"

[hulk_ling]

Teddy laughed. "The most embarrassing? What are you talking about. I was just as nervous when I kissed you. I thought maybe I had completely misread the signals."

[actualwizard]

"You didn't flail and tumble off the bed though." Billy pointed out. "Not my finest moment."

[hulk_ling]

"And yet, I remember it being absolutely adorable," Teddy grinned, leaning down to kiss Billy softly. "Plus, who can say they had two first kisses?"

[actualwizard]

"Does the one after flailing off the bed count as a first? I was counting it as our second." He leans up into Teddy's lips wrapping his arms around him.

[hulk_ling]

"It was still a first," Teddy murmured against Billy's lips. "There was the first time I kissed you and then the first time you kissed me back. See? It counts twice. We're that special."

[actualwizard]

"You're such a dork," Billy murmured against Teddy lips.

[hulk_ling]

"I know," Teddy grinned, sliding a thumb against Billy's cheek. "But you love this dork."
