During that time, I noticed Tim stealing glances at my crotch as he discreetly squeezed his own. Finally, he cleared his throat."What about you, Bill?...Are you straight or gay?" Well, I've been married now for thirteen years." Oh, I see," he said. "Is your wife here? I'd like to meet her." No," I answered, "she stayed in Phoenix." Oh, okay."We sat there a few more seconds in awkward silence until he spoke up again."So, I assume that means that you're straight," he asked, still lightly squeezing. "That was awesome." Yeah it was," she replied with an obvious sarcastic tone, but my bro was still to satisfied to notice. that's when I popped out of the closetMy bro tripped and fell and his girlfriend immediatley covered herself."What the fuck are you doing in there!"
