Inspired by this photo.

Scott and Alex weren’t embarrassed about their relationship; they just preferred to keep what they have out of the public eye as much as possible.

It was something intimately theirs and they didn’t want to share.

But, time wore on and soon their fledging relationship grew into something more, something serious. Alex sold his house and moved into the dream beach house Scott had bought only a few months after filming on the show started. Scott taught Saxon how to surf and Scott and Alex made trips to LA to visit Scott’s father.

Slowly, without either of them really noticing, they became a family.

And, sure, they were good at keeping it hidden, and they had been awarded a level of privacy none of their other relationships had had, and Scott’s pretty sure that helped solidify their bond.

However, it seemed like it might be time to start letting the world see who they really were to each other. Not in a big, grand gesture, just something small, something almost excusably accidental you didn’t have to read into it if you didn’t want to.

And somehow, Scott sitting down in Alex’s chair, leaning over just enough so it was obvious he was sitting in the wrong chair, seemed like just the way to start.

It wasn’t a lot, most people probably wouldn’t even realize what it meant, but Scott would know. And so would Alex.

And maybe the next time they were at an event, Scott will grab Alex’s hand and hold on for a little bit longer than necessary. But, it was all about taking it one step at a time.
