After the last bell rings for the day, I make my way to the front of our building. It is
where most of the students hang out when classes are over. It isnt much, but there are benches
and tables.
Danny, what are you still doing here? You live far from here.
No I dont, Nathan, he tells me with his usual charming smile. I moved to a dormitory
thats close to the school. I am now a free man and away from my controlling uncle.
Thats wonderful, I say with a big smile. We should celebrate.
We make our way to the nearest mall, which is a twenty minute walk from the university.
We send our friends text messages to meet us there. Being the first day of school, we had no
homework and all the time to goof off.
Did anyone reply yet? Danny asks as we walk into the mall.
Karla did, but she has errands to run. It looks like everyone went home already.
He shrugs and just keeps walking. I walk next to him in silence. We watch people move
about, in and out of the various stores and shops.
Are you alright, Danny? I ask after a while
Why wouldnt I be?
We find an empty bench and sit down.
Well, youre quiet and none of our friends showed up.
I dont mind. I get to spend more alone time with you. His joking smile creeps up.
Danny always smiles in that manner whenever he supposedly flirts with me.
I am one lucky queer, I sigh, which is followed by a fit of laughter.
