I started a joke...but the joke was on me
So I signed on to AIM and marta signed on told me to tell her a story. this is what I wrote in like...6 minutes.
So there was this boy named Johnnie. He grew up like every other all american kid. He played in little league, had play dates with friends, and made fun of the nerds at his school. Johnnie's dad was very proud of him. Now, around 4th or 5th grade, lots of Johnnie's friends started having crushes on the girls in their class, and some even had girlfriends. Johnnie did this too, but only cause he felt like he was supposed to. Johnnie continued to make his dad proud, however, as the star quarterback on the football team at his school. He even had a scholarship to play football at a big football university, and was the king of his senior prom. Johnnie still dated girls all throughout high school, but it was an empty experience. So, Johnnie went to college and did very well. His football team even won a trophy, and his dad was very proud. One night, Johnnie was talking to his friend Brian from the football team. He said dating girls was an empty experience for him as well. Johnnie and Brian started to hang out more, and Johnnie started to really like Brian. Johnnie knew inside that he didnt like girls and didn't want to date girls, but he didnt know how to talk to Brian about his feelings, or even worse, his proud father about his sexuality. Brian actually brought the subject up one night, and they started dating secretely, since they couldnt tell anyone on the football team. Johnnie eventually graduated college and was drafted to a big NFL team and signed to a big million dollar contract. Brian got drafted to the same team, so conviniently they became roommates. Through many tough seasons, Johnnie eventually led his team to the superbowl, and they became the world chamions. Johnnie's Dad was filled with pride. Johnnie decided that he would tell his dad about Brian that thanksgiving. So, after dinner, Johnnie took his again father into the garage for a beer and to talk. Johnnie told his dad about Brian and about how he felt all these years. His dad took the news suprisingly well, giving Johnnie a wink of reassurance. Johnnie turned to walk into the house when felt a slug from his dads deer hunting rifle make hole in his back, go through his spine and exit his stomach. He collapsed in a pool of blood, while his dad didnt even blink. Without a second thought, Johnnies dad calmly put the rifle back up on its rack. Brian wanted to arrange Johnnies funeral, or at the very least attend, but he didnt want to have a hole put into him by a rifle as well. Brian ended up spending the end of his days alone in the house that Johnnie bought, while Johnnies father spent his days in a correctional facility, never feeling guilt about his actions. the end
