Hey! I'm back, and finally updating after a year and a half. Originally this was going to be a longer story, but that didn't work out. So after seeing a couple of the reviews I'm doing one chapter when with Louie and Uncle D, then leaving it unless stated otherwise.

Thanks to everyone who's reviewed, favourite and followed.

See chapter 1 for the disclaimer.

Donald was sitting in the kitchen sipping his coffee, enjoying a rare moment of peace. Much as he loved his boys they could be a bit of a handful at times – even though they were 19.

Sure enough he heard movement outside the door and, sighing, put the cup down and listened.

"No, guys, I don't wanna!" He heard Louie say.

His ears pricked up at that. What were Huey and Dewey doing now, for Pete's sake? He went to get up, but froze on the next sentence from Huey.

"You have to tell him sometime, Louie!"

"I will!"

"When?" That was Dewey.

"Er…"

"I thought so. Look – I don't know what you're worried about – actually scrap that I do, I see it completely, however you need to tell him sooner rather than later, he has a right to know. And he's hardly in any position to argue, is he?"

Now Donald's interest was defiantly piqued. What on earth were they talking about?

The door slid open and Louie nervously stuck his head around it. "Hey, Uncle Donald." he cleared his throat. "C-can I come in?"

Donald nodded, a little taken aback. When the boys called him Uncle Donald instead of Uncle D it generally meant something was up. Or they were trying to get him to put his guard down so they could prank him.

However considering they'd stopped the pranks two years ago he was more keen on the 1st one.

"Sure. Sit down."

His youngest did so and proceeded to pick up the salt-shaker and fiddle with it. "Can I ask you something?" he asked the floor.

Donald nodded. "Of course you can." He said, trying not to sound to worried. "Anything."

"W-what – oh geez – what would…what would your…er - reaction be…if I told you…I was gay?" Louie's voice went up at the end of that sentence and he looked pleasingly up at Donald who blinked in surprise.

He had not been expecting this. He hadn't really thought about any of his nephews being anything other than straight. Which considering how often they used to flirt with girls, you couldn't really blame him for. He knew the possibility was there of course, but somehow he never thought it would happen to him.

But life always had a habit of proving him wrong.

"Uncle Donald?" Louie's voice sounded beyond nervous and Donald realised with a jolt how his silence must look to the youngest triplet.

He promptly reached across the table and took Louie's hand. "Louis Duck. You are my nephew. I'm your uncle. We are blood. I don't care what you are, gay, straight, bi…er. What's that one when you're born as one sex but are actually the other?"

"Transsexual."

"Transsexual or anything. You're my blood and I love you. That will never change, never. You could wake up tomorrow and decide you want to live on the planet Mars and I would still support you. Do you understand me?"

Louie let out a sigh of relief and nodded, beginning to smile. "Thanks Uncle D."

And they were back to Uncle D. Brilliant. "So I'm taking it your brothers already know?"

Louie scratched the back of his head. "Yeah, they do. I told them last month."

"I thought so-wait, last month? You really were nervous about telling me weren't you?"

Louie nodded. "Kids get kicked out all the time…"

Donald sighed. "Well, I can't speak for their parents or guardians, but know that I really don't mind. As long as they guy you end up dating respects you and doesn't hurt you then I'm good."

"Huh. Huey and Dewey said exactly the same thing."

"Yes, Louie, because we all love you. Now." Donald stood up. "Let's finish this with a hug so I can enjoy my coffee in peace."

Louie laughed and standing up hugged his Uncle.

Behind the kitchen door Huey and Dewey silently fist-bumped and exchanged mutual looks of glee.
