They remained silent for a moment more. Billy was looking out the window, Ian though as the houses they passed by. “It was Sam, Ian”

“What?” Ian didn’t get the connection.

“Remember Sam?”

“The guy who lived in your building. The one we played basketball with sometimes?”
Ian strained to recall.

“That’s him.” Billy said.

“What about him?”

Billy turned back to Ian, “It was him. Renee walked in and caught Sam and I having sex.”

Ian was stunned.

“Man that was harder than I thought.” Billy admitted out loud to himself.

“Is it serious? I mean do you have feelings for him?”

“I don’t think so, but Ian, I think I might be gay.”

“Shit!” Ian snapped.

“Man, oh man. Listen just drop me off at a hotel….” Billy was upset.

“No, no, Billy that’s not what I was shitting about. I haven’t told you everything. You don’t understand what I’ve walked into here. Let’s just cut to the chase and say I’ve done my own experimenting in the last few weeks.”

“You’re kidding me?” Billy’s mouth dropped open.

“I can’t explain it. I’ve tried, all I can say is that what happened with you and me, I couldn’t get it off my mind and then coming here, well, let’s just say I’ve lived a few fantasies and then some…”

“What ja do, bag finally bag Susan Andrews?”

Ian took his eyes off the road and looked squarely at Billy. Whose eyes grew big, “No shit, you fucked Susan Andrews?”

Ian mumbled as he out his eyes back on the highway, “And her husband.”

“Yeah, right. Isn’t she married to…?” Billy was floored. “No way, you fucked around with Jeremy Tyson, the man’s man? The hottest bod in the business?”

“He’s a man’s man alright?”

“He cheated on his wife with you?”

“Oh, Susan was there…the first time.” Ian admitted. “Billy, I swear you have to keep this to yourself…”

“You aren’t lying?” Billy slumped back in the car seat. “Fuck man, who am I gonna tell that’s gonna believe me anyway?”

They were silent, both in shock until they pulled in Ian’s driveway. As the garage door closed behind them, Ian turned to Billy.

“Look, Billy, I we can see if there are sheets for the downstairs beds or you are welcome to sleep upstairs with me. No expectations, okay?”

“Yeah. Okay.” They got out of the car. “I just wanna get some sleep anyway.”

“We’ll probably chat like a couple of little kids any way.” Ian said.

“Like we’re on a sleep over after school.” Billy agreed.

When they walked in Ian’s house Billy dropped the bags he was carrying and said, “Wow!” Ian proudly showed him the house, as they drank a quick beer. Billy followed him up the steps to the bedroom floor.

“And this is the master bedroom.” Ian grabbed the remote and clicked the buttons that made the drapes slide and the doors pop open.

Billy was speechless. The half empty beer bottle dangling at his side he stared with awe into the back yard. “Is that your pool?”

“Of course.”

“Can I swim in it naked?” He slapped his hand over his mouth, obviously
