“You saw us?”

“It’s not like you were hiding.”

He flushed and scrubbed his hands over his face, groaning.

I frowned, wondering why this was so stressful for him. “Are you upset about the girlfriend?”

He stilled then winced. “Fuck!” Pacing to the island, he forked his fingers through his hair. “I don’t know what happened.”

“I do. You made out with a boy.”

He glared at me.

“What? There’s nothing wrong with that.”

“I know. It’s just…” He blew out a breath. “We were sitting there talking about the Kennedys then the next thing I knew, he was looking at me in this strange way. I got all flustered. He moved closer.”

I grinned and nodded. “Then he stuck his tongue down your throat.”

“Don’t be crass, Ray.”

“You were just dry-humping a random dude on my couch, Ty. Are we going to pretend either of us is demure?”

He pinched the bridge of his nose. “So not cutesy.”

“Aw, you are gay! This is wonderful!”

He frowned at me. “What do you meansome random dude.He’s Hale’s friend.”

“Not really.”

“He’s here.”

“So are twenty other strangers. The Davenports do Thanksgiving all wrong.”

“So, you don’t know him?”

“Five minutes ago I didn’t even like him.”

“Great.”

“Ty, it’s fine. He might be a bit of a prick, but anyone with eyes can see he’s good looking. You get your jollies! You deserve this!”

“I have a girlfriend.”

“Your girlfriend looks like a lesbian.”

“Rude.”

I shrugged. “As a beard, you should be able to recognize another beard. You told me you liked her hiking boots. That’s the only thing you mentioned about her appearance. What does that say to you, Ty?”

“It says she has good taste in boots.”

“Have youkissed her.”

“Yes. I’m not a monk, Ray.”

I went to the fridge and grabbed a can of ginger ale. Popping the top, I said, “I honestly believed it was this big secret you’ve been hiding your entire life, but you still seem confused.”
