Bbh's POV:

My son, Nicholas, ran away about a week ago and I finally got information about his location. At

I didn't want him to move back in with me, or accept me as a father because I agree that I was a very bad parental figure but I want to try and get better and maybe we can patch things up and leave stuff on a good note.

I was currently driving to his school so I'll be able to talk to one of his teachers and see how he's doing in school, socially, and academically.
I couldn't go up to him immediately, I needed to give him time

I knocked on one of the teacher's classrooms, apparently, he teaches hybrid training and math
"Come in" he called from inside

I hesitated before opening the door and walking inside the classroom
"Hello, you must be Nichola's father, Mister Armstrong?" He asked looking up from his notes
"Halo actually, my wife and I got a divorce and I guess he took his mother's last name" I explained
"Alright then, mister Halo, what would you like to know about your son?" He signed me to sit down on the chair in front of him
"Does he have any friends? How is he doing socially?" I asked
"He's doing alright, not very popular but not hated. He also has his own little friend group, which includes Karl Jacobs, one of the smartest kids in my class, Foolish who is a very nice and calm person, Puffy, who Interacts a lot during class and is half popular and Charlie which I have nothing to say about except he's a nice guy. He also seems around Alexis and Jonathan from time to time which is a big downfall around social life but it looks like he helps Alexis with Karl to get better which is very nice of him, he also has some other friends in his year but I'm not really teaching them, just see them hanging out together" I was honestly impressed with Nick's social life, back at home he only had two friends and three other people that I didn't know what they're relationship was

"That's great! What about academically?" I asked, wanting to know more about my child's life
"He's doing alright, he practiced greatly in hybrid training and is abridged in maths, he doesn't need extra help but he definitely needs to try and learn harder, or maybe use Ritalin, he doesn't seem to be able to focus on class" the teacher informed me "I don't know much about other subjects though"
"Thank you so much!" I smiled "May I please know your name by any chance?"
"It's Zak, what's yours?" His voice was suddenly deeper
"Dyrill" I said, kind of embarrassed
"Hm, do you happen to have a nickname, Dyrill?" There was something about the way he said my name that made my cheeks feel hotter
"Um- yeah, it's Bad, do you have a nickname Zak?" My face was really heated up and I knew you could see it, my skin color is entirely black because I'm a demon which means you can see the red blush very clearly on it
"Yeah actually, most of the students call me Mr. Skeppy" he smiled scanning me up and down
"Oh- Well, it was nice to meet you, Zak-"
"Skeppy" he corrected me
"-Skeppy, I'll see you at the student-teachers meeting?"
"How about Friday? Six pm, Addison?" He smirked
"Uh- yeah! I'll see you there!" He smiled cutely at my response and went back to his paperwork
"I'll see you Friday then!" He waved goodbye
"Yep!" I walked out of the classroom

What the muffin was that?
I was ashamed of myself as I got out of the school, I was here to reconnect with my son, not date with one of his teachers!
Whatever... I'll just turn him down at the restaurant, I don't want Nick to hate me even more...

~on Friday~

I was driving to Addison thinking about everything that's going to happen now, I also just got divorced, and it's not even official yet! How can I already want someone new to date?

I was wearing a simple suit, a black button-up with a red tie, and a darker black blazer and pants

I searched for Zak around the parking lot, and when I couldn't I walked to the restaurant door

          

"Hello there, beautiful" a deep voice said, I looked over to my side and saw Zak wearing a messy suit, he looked so hot...
NO! What am I thinking?! I'm supposed to tell him that I'm not interested in him!

"Hello Zak" I smiled at him
He got on one knee and kissed my hand, what a gentleman!
"Shall we go in?" He asked, still grabbing my arm
"Yes, please!" I held back into his arm, maybe I'll give him a chance...

We went in and after a waitress sat us down somewhere not in the middle of the restaurant but not in the corner, just a good place

"So tell me about yourself Dyrill, where are you from? What do you do for work? I'd like to know everything about you" he rests his chin on his arm, looking at me
"Well, I'm Dyrill Halo, I work with children who have special needs and I'm from Bakersfield and I'm Omni-sexual, preference to men, I'm also a demon but I guess you can see that, I used to live in the nether until I was 11 and my parents sent me away, and I have a lovely son" I finished smiling
"Well, Dyrill, I'm Zak, I'm a teacher in high school for hybrid training and math, very different subjects, I was born and raised in Dubai back in 2015 but then moved to America, I'm gay, used to be in a relationship with a girl for 7 years but didn't propose thinking I was afraid of commitment but ended up finding out that I'm just gay in denial, I'm a diamond hybrid, and I have no children but I agree that your son is lovely, but he cannot be more lovely then you" he winked at me "by the way, the girlfriend part is to clarify that I've never been in a Queer relationship before and I would appreciate it if you told me if I do anything wrong, also just genuinely tell me when I do anything that makes you uncomfortable or you don't like" he added

"Alright then, may I say that you're doing great! I muffined my first Queer date up, and never saw them again" I laughed my tail wiggled a little
"Muffined?" Zak chuckled
"I don't like to curse so I just use the word 'muffin' instead of cursing" I explained
"That's actually very smart! I could actually use that! If you don't mind of course, also, if I curse on accident please forgive me, I have to see hundreds of students every day, it's almost impossible to not curse at all" he laughed

"Oh- um- also, when you talked before about your relationship and that, does it mean that you're um-"
"A virgin? No. Forced myself into sex, not a very fun experience and I don't recommend it" he said so casually it made me kind of jealous how he could just say that without getting all flustered and awkward
"Too late for that I guess" I gave him an awkward smile and rubbed the back of my head
"We have more in common than we think I guess" he reached out to hold my hand

We talked about anything and everything while enjoying our food, I had a steak and he had noodle soup, very  different choices but it was still fun, and every time I looked away for a moment he would try and steal stuff from my plate, I didn't have a problem with that, he just thought it wouldn't be fun just like that

"Did you, or do you have any pets?" He asked me
"Well, as a child I had two frogs and now I have a dog named Lucy but her nickname is Rat and we actually use that more than her actual name, Nicholas also had multiple hamsters until he was twelfth, and each one of them died more brutally than the other" I took a bite out of my steak
"Really? Tell me about it, for some reason my psychotic brain likes to hear stories about hamsters that died, they're all so funny or traumatizing" He smiled

"Well, let's start with Plag, he was a black hamster and one day, I just walked in on Nick sitting on the couch while Plag was peacefully dying on his shoulder, and that's not the worst part. They were watching muffin miraculous ladybug." He looked at him straight in the eyes and saw as he tried to hold in his laughter
"Poor plag" he giggled as he started to calm down "Tell me more"
"Okay, one time we went on vacation and when we came back from vacation the hamsters weren't in their cage, you know where they were? Under the fridge. DEAD." I remembered taking them out quietly and later telling Nick that they missed him and went to search for him but someone else must've found them, he cried for a full week "Another two times the same stray cat ate our hamsters, and the third one died because he was fat."
"That's terrible!" Zak laughed
"Yeah, you make it very believable by staying so quiet" I said sarcastically
"I'm sorry" he continued laughing, and I just laughed with him

We both finished our food, talking about anything and everything and when we did finish it we didn't stop talking

"Wow, it's been two whole hours!" Skeppy said as he looked at his watch "We should proceed pay and go"
"Alright, I'll pay" I announced and raised my hand to pay for the bill
"You don't have to, I asked you out" he turned my head to look at him
"I don't mind, I really do want to pay for that" I smiled
"If you say so" he smiled back and let go of my face

I paid for the bill and we went outside
"Hey, Zak? I had a really good time today, can I please get your number and we'll do that again soon?" I held his hand
"How can I say no to such a handsome fella like you? Of course you can" he smirked "Hey, can you bend down please?"
I followed his orders and he planted a small kiss on my cheek, I immediately went red and he chuckled at my reaction
"Alright it's ***-*******" he told me, I saved the number on my phone and texted him a red heart
"Did you get it?" I asked
"Yup!" He stared at his phone and then sent me a red heart back

"Hey come with me!" He grabbed my hand and we walked over to a bench, he got on the bench and ordered me to stay on the ground facing him
"May I?" His face came closer to mine
"You may" I looked at his light blue eyes as he closed the gap between us and kissed me, I immediately gave into the kiss but none of us deepened it considering it was our first date

He walked me to my car holding my hand and skipping happily

"I'll see you soon mister. Halo!" He called as I got into the car
"I'll see you soon Zak" I said softly

He gave me a quick kiss on the lips before skipping away leaving me fully red

As I drove back home I got a call from my ex-wife

"Hello?" I asked
"What are you doing right now? There's no way you're still with Nicholas" she complained
"It's none of your business" I was one hundred percent calm in this situation. I no longer needed to pretend that I like her
"I'M YOUR WIFE! EVERYTHING THAT'S GOING ON IN YOUR LIFE IS MY BUSINESS!" She yelled
"Ex-wife" I fixed her
"Whatever, Clayton is here to take Nick's drums to the studio and I don't want to deal with here, get your ass here" she ordered
"Language"
"I'M SICK OF YOU AND YOU'RE STUPID RULES ABOUT SWEARING! YOU'RE NOT THE BOSS OF EVERYONE! YOU CANNOT DECIDE WHAT I CAN OR CAN'T SAY!!" She yelled even louder than before
"I'll get there when I want to. Meanwhile, help Clay" and with that, I hung up on her for the first time ever

I sighed, how can I just now realize how toxic that relationship was? Did Nick have to do something with it?

She tried to call multiple times on my way back but I just ghosted her and kept on going normally

Quackity POV:

I was getting ready for bed when Schlatt walked in
"Wilbur is calling you" he said
I took the phone from him and answered my best friend

"What's up, Will?" I put the phone to my ear
"Alex. You won't believe what I just saw."
