“We have company!”

“Finally,

some

women!”

“Haha, boys. Don’t flatter us—we know it’s just an act.”

LeeAnn Lehman had arrived with a bottle of wine in each hand and a friend at her side.

Aaron flipped a salmon fillet on the grill as he accepted a peck on the cheek from not just LeeAnn but from Lauren Healy, another Wonderland resident and a woman with a personal connection to Eldon Court. Both women had worked at varying times for Wonderland Realty, and actually it was Lauren who helped transition the sale of their house; Lauren had been in the process of setting up her own business when she brought LeeAnn into the realty. LeeAnn had eventually made the sale to Aaron and Paolo, as well as Sawyer and Dane, and now to Rich and Marc. The only couple Lauren had truly helped was Edgar and Jack, and from the looks of it, tight hugs and kisses all around, they were eternally grateful.

“Hey guys,” Jack said, “You should all know Lauren Healy—she’s the one who put the first homos on Eldon Court—me and that old man over there, my Eddy. What she started, sweet LeeAnn finished.”

“She’s not finished yet,” Edgar said suddenly, as though prompted. “There’s still Number Two Eldon Court to sell. So, LeeAnn, any hot gay couples with money coming to Wonderland?

I mean, besides our newest cuties, Rich and Marc?”

“Hey guys, you know that house isn’t for sale. The owners aren’t ready to part with it,”

LeeAnn said with a dismissive toss of her hand. “Hey, speaking of neighbors, where the hell are Sawyer and Dane? Aren’t they back yet from their excursion? Sawyer sent me a text saying they’d be back this weekend.”

Aaron pointed over to their neighbor’s still darkened house. “Been that way since April, when they left for Europe. Haven’t heard a peep from them. Guess my little brother is having the time of his life.”

“Little brother?” Lauren asked. “Dane is your brother? Why didn’t I know that?”

“When he came out too, it really shook things up in my family. I think that’s what made my parent’s drive their Mercedes into that,” Aaron said. “At least good ol’ boy brother Derek is keeping the family name alive, he and his wife have five kids, including four boys.”

LeeAnn stepped up then, said, “Hey, speaking of shaking things up, did you all read about the earthquake?”

“What

earthquake?”

“It was on the news the other day. Seems a small tremor passed through lower San Francisco a week ago, barely registered on the Richter scale for anyone to care. Still, they say even Wonderland could have been affected. I certainly didn’t feel anything. Anybody else?”

“I think my Eddy was having his way with me,” Jack said, “so, no, I didn’t feel anything.”

“Bitch,” Edgar said, but still he laughed along with everyone else. Aaron, though, could see through the current mask of amusement. There was something on Edgar’s mind, and the earthquake comment had brought it to the surface. He let it go, figuring he’d ask him later.

The party continued as more drinks were poured and more food was consumed.
