Bro was excited. Really, really excited, and probably more than he visible showed- though it definitely showed, just by how cheerful he'd been acting. It had been too long since he and Dave had done anything together. Hell, they really hadn't ever done much together- at least, not like this. Yeah they'd gone out and did some things, but there was always a certain... wall, between them, due to the fact Bro was too cool for showing real affection and doing anything with Dave. But that had changed- he'd come to realize he didn't have to be the stoic asshole that he used to be. He'd come to realize that he could let his guard down and it was okay. He wasn't really sure what had made him realize this- maybe it was just everything that had gone on lately.
What he definitely knew was that the strife on top of the astronomy tower with Dave had really, truly opened his eyes and made him realize that things needed to change. He realized he wanted a better relationship with Dave- Dirk, too, but mainly Dave, because he knew their relationship was the one that needed the most work. He wanted to be someone Dave could depend on. He found himself wanting to actually be a good father. He just wanted to do things right for once. And he was excited to finally have the opportunity to start fixing things, to do things with Dave that weren't laced with irony and that weren't 'to make Dave a strong person'. No, he just wanted to have some quality time with his son.
He's gotten Dirk and Roxy a babysitter and sent them off on Friday night, which left Dave and Bro alone in the flat that night. Bro took advantage of this by ordering the best, greasiest pizza he could find and the two had stayed up watching shitty movies together and gorging on the pizza. And then that Saturday, he'd woken Dave up a little earlier than usual so they could get an early start. Bro was already ready to go when he did wake Dave up, so all he had to do was wait for Dave to get ready, all the while making lightly teasing (and maybe a little impatient, shut up) remarks about how Dave needed to hurry the hell up so they could go. The Leaky Cauldron was within walking distance, so he didn't bother for side-along apparition, he figured they could both just walk there.
Bro peeked his head into Dave's room for probably the third time. "You ready to go yet?"
