I don’t see why it shouldn’t be. But you’re barking up the wrong tree. Never had a gay relationship.

I don’t want to treat him like a girl. I think that would be offensive or something?

Not sure if it’d be offensive, bro. Just do what feels right.

Have you had dates with your guy yet?

He’s not my goddamn guy and I don’t want to see his fucking face.

Getting pissy, are we?

Just don’t bring him up today, okay? I’m getting a headache.

Okay. What did you use to do with your girlfriend? My real serious one left way too soon and I was a teen.

She loved movies, so we did that.

We can’t do anything in public. That’s so unhelpful.

Then maybe you should come out in public. Have you talked about a relationship or something?

We HAVE to talk about that?

Uh, kind of? Jeez you’re like a fetus on the emotional side.

But why? We’re already together.

As fuck buddies. That’s different from a relationship, my dude.

But I already told you it’s not only about the sex.

Telling me is cool and all, but you kind of have to tell HIM. Talk about it and all that jazz. Jesus. Get a grip, man. Even I have more emotional awareness than you. The bar is in hell.

That convo with V left me even more confused.

Next. Grandpa.

I had to be careful with him, because the moment I said I was brainstorming about how to make my recent crush happy, it went like this.

“Are you obsessing, Gareth?”

“Absolutely not.”Lie of the fucking century.

“Good. As long as it’s harmless.”

“Cross my heart.” Epic liar.Hey, that’s me.

But if Grandpa thinks I am obsessing, he’ll put an end to this whole thing.

Because he’s seen me obsessed with Harper and he’s seen the pool of blood and the dead eyes that followed.

Ever since then, I promised him that I’d never allow myself to get obsessed again.

Well, I’m more than obsessed with Kayden. These deranged feelings make my fixation on Harper seem like child’s play.

But Grandpa doesn’t need to know that.

He suggested I should dazzle her with my money, looks, and prestigious background. Any girl should be grateful I’m even giving her a chance.
