Jack's P.O.V
It has already been eight months since It wrapped and since the last time I saw Finn and... I'm not gonna lie. I miss him like hell.
But we've been talking a lot lately and we decided to tell our families about our relationship...
Finn calls me and I immediately ask
- Are you sure about this?
- Yeah. I'm sure. We have to. Mom is starting to worry about me
- Why?
- Because I don't have a girlfriend
- You have to be kidding me!
- No. she's like YOU HAVE SO MANY GIRLS BEHIND YOU, SWEETIE. WHY ARE YOU ALONE? THAT MILLIE GIRL IS SO CUTE
- She wants you with Millie?
- She wants me with someone; anyone.
- Any girl, you mean
- Not exactly.
- Ugh. I don't know about this, Finn. I don't have a good feeling.
- Hey. Do you love me?
- Of course I do
- So trust me.
- Okay...
- Bye babe
- Bye
I walk to my living room and call my dad and my stepmom
- I have something to tell you guys...
- What?
- I'm dating someone
- Really?- Jana asks
- Yeah...
- Do we know her?
- It's Finn
- Who?
- Finn... Finn Wolfhard
- Your friend Finn?
- I knew it- Dad suspires- They were just too close...
- You're... gay?- Jana asks
- No. No. I mean... Finn's kind of an EXCEPTION.
- An exception? Son, this is not a game
- I know it's not. We've been dating for almost nine months, now.
- Son, if he makes you happy, we're happy for you two. But we want to meet him.
- Are you sure about him?
- Of course I am, Jana. We've been dating for almost nine months.- I repeat
- Maybe you're just making a mistake, baby.
- No. I know what I'm doing and we're not gonna go public. Also, the manager will get me a girlfriend... just in case
- Is he okay with this?- my father looks at me, and frowns
- Yeah... he knows the risks we could pay if we go public...
- Oh, okay
- Bring him for Mother's day, sweetheart.
- Are you serious?
- I told you we wanted to get to meet him
I hug dad and then his wife.
- Can I bring Wyatt too? They were gonna spend mother's day together.
- Is Wyatt your boyfriend too?- Dad asks
- No!- I reply, a little offended.
- I'm just kidding, son.
He hugs me and lets me know everything will be okay. Even though Jana made me invite Finn, I feel like she's not into Finn being my couple. At least not yet
I run straight to my room and call Finn

FINN's P.O.V
- Jack?
- Have you told them?
- Nope
- No?
- No... Sorry. Have you?
- I just did
- Oh.
- Will you?
- Yeah. Of course
- Oh. Okay. They wanna meet you
- What?
- Yeah. They invited you to spend mother's day with us.
- Oh I... can't. I'm spending it with the Oleff's
- Oh. They invited Wyatt too
- What? Why?
- Because I told them to
- Okay. So I guess if Wyatt accepts, I'm accepting too
- Is everything okay?
- Yeah. Sure
- Okay. Bye
- Bye
- Love you...
I end the call and realize I didn't say I love you back. But he knows I love him so... it's fine.
- Okay guys. Let's work.
I've been working with a couple of friends to make music. We're kind of a band and we like to call ourselves CALPURNIA.
I'm the lead singer and the guitarist.
When the band's practice is over, I go talk to my parents
- So now you're on a band?
- Yeah. I've always loved music so my and my friends made a band. But we're seriously working hard.
- That's so cool, son.
- Can I spend Mother's day at the Grazer's house?
- I thought you were spending it with the Oleff's
- Well... now we're going to Jack's house
- Oh, okay.
- I have to tell you something
- What?
- I...
- You...?
- I'm going to work really hard with my band, Calpurnia.
- That's good to know.
- Yeah. Okay, bye.
Fuck. I can't do it. It's just too hard.
I shouldn't have told Jack to tell his parents about us. Now, if I don't tell them, he'll get really mad.
- What should I do?- I whisper- Okay Finn... you can do this. You HAVE to do this. You absolutely love Jack and he did it, so you can do it too- I say to myself.
I go back to my parents
- I'm dating Jack
I turn round and run to my room
- What the hell was that? Well... At least I told them.
Dad runs to me
- What?
- What?- I ask
- What did you say?
- I'm... dating Jack
- Jack Grazer?
- Yeah
- Are you gay?
- No, dad. I'm not
- You do know Jack is a boy. Don't you?
- Of course I do. We don't really understand it neither. But we're together.
- How long?
- Eight months and thirteen days.
- Oh... that's a lot. So you're not kidding
- I guess I'm not
- Okay. I'm happy you're finally dating someone
- You don't mind I'm dating Jack?
- Of course not, Finn. I don't really understand it, but neither do you. So... I'm happy for you two.
- Thank you dad.
- I love you, son. Don't matter what
- I know you do.
- Have a nice mother's day. When do you leave?
- Tomorrow morning
- Oh cool.

JACK's P.O.V
Finn arrives home and kisses my mouth
- Hey baby boy
- Hey Finn. I'm glad you could make it.
- I'm glad to be here
He smiles at me
- Is everything okay?
- I'm just so happy to see you
- Aw you're so cute
- I told my parents
- You did?- I ask him
- Yeah. Dad told me it was okay.
- That's great! Dad told me it was okay too. But mom... I'm not so sure she's okay with this
- And you made me come here? On mother's day?
- She actually invited you
- Oh...
- BTW, Wyatt's coming to dinner.
- Oh. Okay, so we'll have lunch on our own
- Well... with my family
- That's fine
- So... you wanna go to my room?
- Sure
- It's upstairs
- Where are your parents?
- They went to buy fried chicken
- Cool! I love fried chicken
- I know...
We go up and I close the door
- So... you met this... Ellie girl?
- Yeah. She's cool, I guess
- So you're into her already?
I frown and punch him on his arm
- Hey!
- You're such an asshole, Finn Wolfhard!
- But you love me that way- he winks
- You know I do
Finn smirks and sits on my bed
- I have a band
- A band?
- Yeah. It's called Calpurnia
- Cool! I'm so happy for you! I know how much you love music
- Yep. We're working so hard
I sit next to him and smile at him.
- I'm glad you're here
- Jack?- my mother screams
- Oh. My parents are here
- Lunch's ready! Is Mike here?
- Mike?- he asks
- Yeah... she watched Stranger Things last week and now she calls you Mike
He starts laughing
- Shall we?
- Of course
We go down and have a great time having dinner with mom and dad.
