Shitty + Lardo = ???

In which Bitty is wise in the ways of love, and Lardo needs to make her consent extra enthusiastic if this thing is going to work out. 

It isn’t until October that Bitty finds out what happened between Shitty and Lardo.

It’s Saturday evening, and the Haus is quiet for once. Ransom and Holster have taken an assortment of frogs and tadpoles to infiltrate the nearby lax kegster. They’re wearing disguises. It won’t end well. Chowder and Farmer are having “date night” AKA playing Skyrim on the couch downstairs.

Lardo is out smoking on the roof, and Bitty has opened the window, because he just finished his fourth assignment of the week, and if anyone deserves a contact high, it’s him.

She hasn’t talked about it. Not at all.

They’ve talked about other things - because Jack and Bitty decided if they were going pull off a secret relationship, they would each need one confidante, and of course Shitty was Jack’s person, and Lardo was Bitty’s. Bitty and Lardo spent the whole summer Skyping or texting back and forth, and now they’re even sharing the same floor, Bitty feels closer to Lardo than he ever has.

But they haven’t talked about this - about the thing that Lardo refuses to define and Shitty only ever refers to as The Big Fucking Question Mark.
