Marcus: Most Wanted

What just happened? I mean, I know the events--one minute I was comfortably sleeping in my nice warm bed, and the next minute I was fucking Sergio, and then I was all alone again.

But what was happening to my heart? I was sad that he was gone.

We should’ve talked last night. We had talked, a little. But not about the most important question, one that I couldn’t even figure out how to say without sounding sappy: Did we like each other?

It’s like every time I wanted to ask him that, we’d get interrupted by someone. Or by fucking.

Well, no more interruptions. I’d run downstairs to help with his luggage and tools, and we’d hash this out.

As I showered, I was actually excited. He wanted me. I knew it. I just needed him to say it. To confess that this was more than a tropical fling between two erstwhile enemies. I chuckled to myself. “Confess.” Like I was accusing him of a crime. The crime of liking me. Hell, it had gotten plenty of other guys in trouble before.

I took a minute getting dressed. What do you wear when you want to tell someone you want to be their boyfriend? My usual t-shirts and shorts didn’t really seem appropriate. I glanced over at Sergio’s closet. There you go. Dress for success. I dug through his stuff until I found a shirt that fit me, soft gray linen with short sleeves; it was a little snug around the shoulders, but that was okay. I also stole some of his pants. I was this close to grabbing some of his shoes, but I don’t know, that seemed too personal. So I pulled on my sneakers.

He wasn’t at the front desk. “You’ve missed him by just minutes,” said the clerk. “We have a few people carrying his bags up to his room. He insisted on moving his crates himself.”

So he was headed to the freezer. No problem.

Well, one problem. As I was leaving the lobby, I was hailed from the hall. I turned to see who was calling me.

“Oh. Hello, Hunter.”

Hunter was in a bright blue suit with a yellow shirt, his collar open, showing a silver chain around his neck. His pocket square looked like he was carrying around a canary.

“You’re just the man I wanted to see,” he told me.

“This isn’t going to be about Josh, is it? Because I told you last night--”

“No, no. That’s old news. We have parted ways, Josh and I, under the best of terms. No, the reason I wanted to see you is, I heard a bit of bad news about you.”

I waited impatiently for him to say what the news was, but when he just looked at me expectantly I said, “Well?”

“A little bird tells me that you’ve lost your job.”

“It’s not exactly news. I think everybody knows about it.”

“But it’s sad, don’t you think, Marcus?” He gave me a wet-eyed look of concern, and put his hand on my shoulder. “What are
