Chuck's just so unsure about starting this up again on a 'trust me' basis--He's going to be jumping at every other wince Raleigh makes, going to be so nervous and....damn insecure because he can't watch Raleigh walk away from them again.
There's nothing else Raleigh can give him. He's out of things to admit and apologize for. If Chuck wants more then he doesn't know what to do. He's said and given all he can. Now he just has to prove it.
And they'll work through it. Raleigh and Yancy have to go back because work calls, they're in a joint project together that was gracious enough to allow them to take a few days leave.
They weren't hiding it, but they're not all out holding hands together. Chuck hates closets, he'll be on public dates with both of them and if anyone asks he'll point to the wikipedia definition of polyamory and leave it at that.

"I just--" He doesn't want to make him leave again.
no subject
"I know it's valid. But I'm still an idiot."
Small smile.
"You'll just have to try and trust me. I'll earn it back."
no subject
It's just going to take a lot of work. It's going to be slow going.
...maybe they shouldn't move back in all at once.
no subject
He nods.
That's the best they can do.
no subject
It might kill him, he thinks.

...but he's got his guys back, so. It's a start.

But skype dates...those are okay, right?
no subject
...
And all of this means he has to tell Herc all of what's been going on, doesn't it.
no subject
He probably should, yes. Herc would probably like a clue in.
Though he's probably going to give looks and raise his brows at the idea of Chuck being in a threesome with two brothers.
no subject
....but yeah it's why he's been so out of sorts these past couple months.
no subject
Jesus Christ. Brothers? What the fuck, Chuck.
God you give him a headache. Are you three out? Oh God the media stir-
no subject
They don't need to know the details.
Can't you just be happy for him.
no subject
He just worries about you. It's...incest, kid. That's not smiled upon.
Not really anywhere, honestly.
no subject
Is Herc going to say anything?
no subject
God kill him now. Adults or not...
No. He's not. He doesn't approve but he's not gonna out his kid.
no subject
He just. Wanted to be up front.
no subject
Great.
Just. Fucking great.
He's going to just stay out of it and hope it doesn't blow up.
no subject
Thanks, dad.
Yeah he might hang up a little harder than necessary and throw himself into bed like a cranky teenager.
no subject
Well. At least Herc isn't disowning him. And he'll support his kid but that doesn't mean he has to approve.
He'll get a skype call from two blue-eyed brothers later.
"Ring ring, baby..."
no subject
And oh fuck is it so good to see them.
"Fuck it's good to see you guys."
no subject
They're correct conclusions.
"Hey kid." Yancy's leaning in, on his stomach and wheezing because Raleigh's laying on top of him, sprawled out and peering over his shoulder.
no subject
...."So good to see you." That's really hot. Mmh, he's feeling better already.
no subject
They're clothed at least. YAncy's grunting a little because Raleigh's heavy.
"You too. How're you doing?"
no subject
"I talked to dad about us." His shoulders slump again.
