“I never meant to hurt you.”“It was my fault. I assumed you were serious about being my girlfriend.” The sad smile I gave her was answered wit... a hug.“I thought we were just foolin’ around. It wasn’t until I saw you with Sam that I realized what I’d lost.”I kissed her hair. “You’ll always be my best friend.”“I like foolin’ around with you, but I really like Joe.”“And ... I think I’m gay.” Saying it out loud made it real. Sam always knew for herself, but it had taken me a little time to work it. There was a potted plant at the side of the settee so I poured the drink into it bit at a time when no one was watching. David, the college k** came back regularly feeding me drinks and I took the odd sip but poured most into the pot plant. In between frying to fill me up with drink he was dancing with my wifeI put on that I was drunk and as the party wound down my wife asked our host to help her get me out to the car but his son volunteered and once I was in the car he offered to drive us home. But knew deep down, I never would. By the time, I took the beautiful girl in. I carried on and read the rest of my paper.By now I looked up from the paper and noticed a group of girls. From where I was sat, I could tell they must been at least a year younger than myself. Because at this time I was currently eighteen. I assumed, they were on the animal care courses.They were next to the pool tables, where they played amongst themselves. I couldn’t help but watch when they played a game. One of. “I’m on my way to the school to pick up Sean! He was in a fight at school over you being a pedophile!” Sean had been cornered by two football players, and Sean is almost as big as I am and not the type to back down. He ended up suspended but not the other boys. My ex was going to have him stay with her during his two week suspension. Two weeks came and went. Sean decided he didn’t want to go back to that school. He also was going to move in with his mother. And still not a word about or from.
