Travis
“Come on sweetheart, lets go…we are going to be late.” I call in the general direction of the bathroom.
“Yeah, Travie baby I’m almost ready…”
Its has been a turbulent week. I have spent most of the time trying to figure myself out, figure out my future. I have enlisted the help of my main man Gabe. Now we are going on a date; all four of us: me, Will, Gabe, and Gabe’s date yet to be named.
“Kay, let’s roll babe.” William struts out looking as well dressed as ever. In fact this is the most I have seen him this dressed to the nines in a while. It has been almost impossible to get him out of that ugly red patchwork looking sweater thing.
Tonight is different. On his thin frame is a checkered button down shirt with pearl looking buttons. Accompanying the shirt, he is wearing his favorite pair of jeans. The ones that are just slightly tight; but gives his legs a chance to breathe. Above his knee is a bandana tied; and even though I don’t know why he does that, it totally fits his style some how. And boots. He is wearing his favorite pair of cowboy boots too. The thing that really catches my attention is his glowing smile and effortless sex hair; both are natural but are not readily seen by the public.
“What?”
“What what?”
“Why are you staring? Gawking actually…”
“Nothing. I just… I think you look amazing.” He blushes a little and looks to the floor
“I uh… well… we haven’t gone a date for a long time…I wanted to look… special…” I walk up to him and tilt his chin up so we are eye to eye.
“Baby, you always look special, you always take my breath away.” His eyes light up and twinkle in response.
“Oh. Travis, I love you.” Spoken in singsong and with a smile.
“I love you too… but we gotta get walikin’. We don’t want to be rude, and show up all late.”
“You never told me who we are going with…”
“You’ll find out dear…” I tell him as I hit the light switch and lock the door.
Gabe
Damn it is cold tonight. We have only been waiting in line for five minutes, but it feels like hours. Travis always tells me I need to ‘get some meat on those skinny ass bones’, and these are the times I wish I’d listen. I pull my jacket tighter around myself.
“So… you brought me along, why?”
“I need you Ry, I need some one to come on a double date; I told you that already…”
“But why did you need me to come?”
“Because….” I trail, unsure of how to word myself. Ryland has always been there for me, as a friend. I love to have him around, hear his jokes, to spend time with him; but he wants more, and I can’t give him that. “… because, I need you around; I need you to help me out with this. I love you” I reach up on my tippy toes and plant a kiss on his cheek.
“I love you too, you know that. That’s why you always get what you want from me…” And he gives me that look, and it makes my heart hurt a little.
Then I hear someone clear their throat; and I turn around to see Travis holding on to William’s hand. William… he has a look of utter pain on his face, like a hurt puppy. All I want to do is hold him, explain what just happened. But I don’t…
“Uh, hey Travie. Will. This is Ryland, this is my date.” Ryland smiles and rests his head on mine. Crap, this was a terrible idea.
“Hi guys, call me Ry. I’m glad to meet you guys; Gabe always talks so positively about you both… all the time…”
Travis gives a little head nod for acknowledgment. William holds out his hand.
“William. I’m sorry that I can’t say the same, Gabe hasn’t mentioned you to me yet.”
Shit. Ryland looks to the ground, and William shoots me a look that could kill.
“Oh. Well we go way back. He actually wants me to play guitar for Cobra.”
“How nice for you, I bet it will be great.”
“Uh… so…” Thank you Travie. “… its kinda cold out, can we get inside now? It’s pretty cold out here…”
“Yes. For sure.” I wrap my arm around my date, and drag him in.
