The next few hours were a blur of police and paramedics and other official people asking way too many questions. Linkara almost regretted letting Harvey call for official emergency services, but then he looked at Craig, broken and bleeding, and he knew that they needed professionals to deal with that.

Eventually, the police accepted the ( Read more... )

Craig drained his glass and waved to the bartender for the tab. He needed to get home-he was already late, though he doubted either Spoony or Linkara would notice. They were both busy with their own projects, which was why they hadn’t accompanied him to the bar tonight.

It was just as well. Craig loved his boys, more than anything, but they had ( Read more... )

Spoony kissed me.

Spoony kissed me.

Spoony kissed me.

No matter how many times I said it in my head or which inflection I used, I couldn’t quite bring myself to believe it. Walking home, I could still feel his lips on mine, but distantly, as though it had happened to someone else.

I didn’t know what to do. I couldn’t process that it had ( Read more... )

With everything that had been happening, I was shocked to realize it was almost Christmas time. We’d had two more meets, both of which were terrible, and practice was even worse. Linkara was thinner and paler than ever, and in spite of all his protests and denials, we all knew he was in trouble.

The only good thing about that was that worrying ( Read more... )

We sat through the rest of the meet without saying much. It wasn’t an uncomfortable silence, which was a relief. It mostly gave me time to think.

I was happy that Spoony didn’t care that I was gay and I knew he would keep it secret. But I was also a bit nervous that he would figure out that I liked him. Unless he liked me back, which was extremely ( Read more... )

I could tell something was bothering Linkara. Unfortunately, I had so much else to worry about that I couldn’t spend too much time figuring out what.

Wrestling practice that week was pure hell. Coach Ogreski was pushing us harder than ever, which made everyone more frustrated and aggressive, which meant they took it out on us. Linkara and I spent ( Read more... )

The rest of the week passed without incident. In spite of that, I was more miserable than I’d ever been. I wasn’t eating as much as I should be been, even though all of my friends were constantly nagging me about it. I learned to eat just enough to satisfy them, but I could still feel myself losing weight very fast, and when I weighed in on Friday ( Read more... )

He didn’t seem much better four hours later when I saw him in math, but he at least tried to smile when he sat down. “You okay?” I asked.

“Fine,” he said. “Just tired.”

I knew he was lying, but I didn’t want to push him. I kept glancing at him all through the lesson, but he didn’t look at me, merely focusing on learning the formula. After the ( Read more... )
