I checked out the notification as I waited for him to answer. Twenty-seven minutes since he’d been online. He might be busy. England was an hour behind, so maybe he was out and about, or—

Facebook pinged.

Matt: What happened? I thought that BJ was a done deal?

Me: Hah. Yeah. No. I don’t know.

Matt: At least tell me you banged?

Me: Oh yeah. We did. I’m turning into a girl.

Matt: What the hell? Where did that come from?

Me: Feelings, man. I don’t know.

Matt: You’ve got feelings? For this lad who’s not your type?

Me: Yeah. Fuck me.

Matt: I’m sure he’d like to do that. ;)

Me: Hah! Yeah, maybe, I think so. If I can ever get myself to ask.

Matt: Just do it. It can’t hurt! Well, actually it can, but you know what I mean.

Me: He’s only back in town for Easter.

Matt: Where does he live when he’s not in town?

Me: Oslo. 9 fucking hours away by car. 1 by plane though, but that’s expensive. Not that I want to go visit him. Or… I don’t know. Fuck. I’m not supposed to have feelings. See what I mean when I said I’m turning into a girl? Girls get feelings when they have sex with someone. Guys don’t.

Matt: Sure they do. I slept with C and never looked back. We’re still together.

Me: Sounds like a fairy tale. A really nice fairy tale.

Matt: Hey, I’ve pegged you for a secret romantic ages ago. Ever since your first free novella. You do want romance. Why fight this? If you like him and he likes you…

Me: But he’s…

Matt: Too gay. Yeah, you said. Does it really matter?

Me: He’s quite outrageous. He wears these shirts with prints on them. Some can be quite vulgar. We made fun of him back in school.

Matt: He’s being true to himself. If you ask me, I think that’s brave.

Me: Yeah, well. Not every gay man want to be associated with that stereotype. I’m sorry. You said your guy was quite out there too… but it’s just… embarrassing.

Matt: To be seen with him?

Me: Yeah.
