/>Shaun laughed.

“I didn’t know that there was so much about gay life,” said Zach.

“Well you just never know.”

“I guess that’s why I liked it.”

“Yeah too bad it was fiction.”

“Right, with some names changed.”

Zach and Shaun laughed.

“So when did you read it?” asked Shaun.

“Oh when it came out.”

“Gabe never mentioned anything."

“I never told him,” said Zach looking into Shaun’s eyes.

“I enjoy your writing,” said Zach in a soothing tone of voice.

“You really like it.”

It wasn’t a question but Zach thought he should answer anyway, “Yeah I thought it was awesome.”

“I never knew that you knew that about me.” Changing the subject Zach replied with “are you hungry?”

“Yeah, let’s go get a bite to eat.”

Later on that night Zach and Shaun went to a bar and grill and had some beers and a side of fries.

“So, how long are you staying?”

“I’m going to be staying for awhile now. I was supposed to go to Barcelona to meet up with some friends next month but I’m kinda broke now. Have you ever been to Europe?”

“No, just one time in Florida.”

Zach and Shaun laughed.

“Oh and once when your parents took me to Mexico.”

“You should go man,” said Shaun.

Zach’s cell started ringing and he checked who it was. It was his girlfriend. Zach wasn’t in the mood to talk to her; he was enjoying spending time with Shaun and talking to him about any shit they could come up with.

“Hey, you can answer that, it’s okay,” said Shaun.

“No it’s alright.”

“Not talking to her much?”

“Yeah something like that.”

Zach was picking on his fries and Shaun was taking his time with one of many beers that he had at the bar.

Once the two were done at the bar they went back to the mansion where Shaun was staying and grabbed some beers. After they had beers in their hands they went upstairs and outside of the porch and sat down on comfortable chairs.

The two guys where getting so drunk, but they were having such a good time, they were laughing and smiling and making fun of different things and people.

“Once Gabe got so drunk while driving that he smashed his fucking car right into to a stop sign.” The both of them cracked up laughing so hard.

“Shit he must have been wasted.”

“Totally hammered.”

“But he’s my brother and I love him.”

“And he’s my best friend.”

They cheered to that one with their bottles of beers and both said cheers and finished up the last sips of their beers.

“I’m getting another one, do you want another one?”

“Yeah thanks,” Shaun handed his empty bottle of beer to Zach.

When Zach was gone Shaun found an old book of Zach’s drawings. Zach came back and sat back on the chair and handed Shaun his beer and noticed him looking at his drawing books. He tried to yank the book out of Shaun’s hands.

“No one ever looks through my books.”

“Hey, it’s cool man let me just see.”

Zach handed the book back to Shaun and took a sip of his beer. Shaun kept turning the pages in the book until he came across a sad picture that Zach
