“I wanna learn an instrument,” Harry announced.
“Drums?” Louis said.
“No, like a band instrument.”
“Drums aren’t a band instrument…?”
“You know, band band.”
“What, like saxophone?”
“I thought maybe flute.”
“Flute? Why’d you want to do that?”
“Dunno, it’s different.”
Different alright, Louis thought. Harry loved this double life, seeing how far he could push the edges of acceptability.
“You taking the piss out of me? Can you even read music?”
“Whatever, once I couldn’t read words.”
Louis studied Harry’s face. “Alright then. You play flute, I’ll play oboe.”
Harry raised his eyebrows. “Gay,” he muttered and walked away.
