Chapter 7

THE GOSSIP through town was enough to drive Willy out of his mind. All anyone was talking about was Jamie Fullerton, and it bothered him. Usually talk in town died down once something else happened, but not this time. It had been nearly a week and the chatter continued.

Willy pulled the cart of boxes out of the back room. He wanted to replenish some displays while it was slow. He was careful as he passed Mrs. Weathers and Mrs. Gardner, talking quietly in the aisle. He wasn’t intent on listening to their conversation, but he couldn’t help hearing.

“I heard that some people are circulating a petition to have the mayor recalled. I don’t know if things should go that far, but apparently Jamie is so ashamed of himself,” Mrs. Gardner was saying.

“As he should be,” Mrs. Weathers interjected.

“Oh, please.” Mrs. Gardner rolled her eyes as Willy passed, leaving them behind. “So the kid is gay. It’s hardly the end of the world.”

“Mom sent me in for some things and—” He turned and hurried toward the back of the store. Willy wished he could help.

The bell on the door chimed again, and Willy tried to stop the smile that rose to his lips as Reggie entered, in his uniform, looking sexy as all get-out. The first thing that went through Willy’s mind was that the next time he saw him, maybe he could get Reggie to wear his uniform and…. Willy blinked away the thought. He was at work, and a stiffy wasn’t going to be a good idea. He could already feel the heat rising to his cheeks, and he had to look away and get his mind on what he was doing.

Willy began placing bags of candy on the endcap even as his mind flashed into darkness, the middle of the night. He was awake, staring at the ceiling. He’d just rolled over for the dozenth time. Reggie stirred next to him. He expected to be told to lie still, but heated hands slid over his chest and belly, and then Reggie rolled on top of him, cradling him. Reggie had kissed him until his eyes
