MICK’S SCARED shitless. Jerry watched Mick practically mow down a dozen people on his forward rush to the exit. He disappeared on the deck for a couple of minutes, then went plowing out the front door. Who would Jerry find if he looked on that deck? Man, he had a bad feeling.

He sighed and walked back to the table.

Rod had a big crease between his arched eyebrows. “What in hell was that all about?”

Jerry frowned. “The guy doesn’t want to admit he’s gay.”

Andres looked up from his cell phone. “Been there.”

Hunter nodded. “Done that.”

Jerry sipped the last of his warm beer. “I tried to tell him it would get better if he could just face it, but I think his actual life is in danger if he comes out, man.”

Hunter’s eyes widened. “What?”

“Yeah. From what he’s said about his preacher father, the guy ain’t exactly about God is love.”

Hunter leaned in. “What can we do?”

What a great man. Mick had insulted Hunter and his family beyond anybody forgiving, but here Hunter was, wanting to help. “I don’t know, man.” He shook his head and kind of shook something loose, because his face got wet.

Rod leaned over and put a warm hand on his arm. “I’ve never seen you cry.”

“I don’t much. I learned to man up real young. But I just feel so bad for him. I got a lot of crap in life, but, man, he wins.” He wiped a sleeve across his face. “Sorry.”

Hunter blew out a breath. “I never thought I’d ever feel sorry for that guy, but I think you need to help him, Jerry.”

“Me? Hell, I’m the last person he wants to see. Besides, he’s got real problems. I haven’t got the brains to deal with stuff like that.”

Andres had been quiet, but he leaned into Jerry. “You’re probably the only person he wants to see, guapo. You’ve already been through everything he’s experiencing.”

“Yeah, but I was twelve or thirteen. He’s twenty-four.”

Rod tapped the table. “Still, your parents hated you being gay as much as his.”

Jerry gave a little laugh. “They just wrote me out of their businesses. They didn’t shoot me.” His mouth was dry, so he drank a couple of swallows of water. “There are some bad guys at the firehouse, man. Worse than when you were there, Hunter. This new guy, Straight. He’s got evil vibes, you know. I hate to see Mick mixed up with them. Lethal, man. Lethal.” He stared toward the restaurant’s deck.
