IT HAD BEEN THREE WEEKS since Diego told Alex they shouldn’t act on the attraction between them, and he’d been cursing himself ever since. What the hell was I thinking? he asked himself at least twice a day—once in the morning when he was showering in the downstairs bathroom Miguel had finished for Alex a little over a week ago, and multiple times in the evening whenever their post work day activities brought them back into contact. Other opportunities to remind Diego how stupid he’d been also appeared regularly throughout the week: when he caught Alex coming back from a beach run, when he saw Alex bending over the stove to taste something, even when Alex was nowhere in sight but his aftershave lingered in the air. Stupid. Stupid. Stupid.

Being right that the two of them should put their attraction on the back burner was small comfort every time Diego’s cock stirred at the sight of Alex walking into the house with his shirt off after a run and his powerful body glowing with sweat. Diego’s prayers to the Virgin did nothing to help alleviate the growing hunger in his gut, and his cock was getting bored that the only fun times on offer were with Diego’s own hand. It had flat out refused to play the night before, something Diego had never experienced in his entire life, and that didn’t leave him in the best of moods.

Not to mention he was fighting tooth and nail with social services to keep Casey at the youth center, and his search for Drew’s old boyfriend had turned up nothing. The man had to have chosen a new name after he arrived in San Francisco because no one in the Gay Men’s Chorus or any other choral groups that were active pre-AIDS had a record of a Christopher Williams ever being a member, nor could anyone remember a young man fitting Chris’s description specifically being who they were looking for.

Diego had also been back to visit Tony’s grave each week, finding that talking some of this shit out helped him feel a little better. He’d tried talking to his mom a couple of times, but she was always in the midst of bossing everyone around on the weekends or so busy riding herd on his nieces and nephews that it was difficult to get a coherent sentence out, and it took forever to explain anything. It wasn’t like he needed advice from her; he just needed someone to listen while he unraveled the tangle of issues currently on his plate. So Tony it was. Maybe his willingness to visit was a form of acceptance, a way to give Tony a purpose in his life again that didn’t hurt like hell.

Like most therapists and counselors, Diego saw his own psychologist on a regular basis. His reluctance to visit Tony’s grave had been a topic of conversation early on in their relationship until Diego made it clear that he didn’t want to talk about it. Yes, he recognized his own avoidance.
