Loony Bin

It’s been a day since the kiss.
It was pure magic.
Tucker is avoiding me,
but I don’t mind.
It means I have more time with George.

George.
What a great name.
So noble,
So loving.

He knows what I need.
I need love
I need comfort.
He gives it to me.

I think I may be in love,
but I’m not sure.

I think I may want to go
all the way
with him
but I’m not sure.

What if Tucker comes out?
Would it be considered rape?

Sure,
I love Tucker to pieces,
but I’m not in love with him
not like with George.

“What’s on your mind, my sweet?”
I smile.
George has the cutest pet names.
I turn to him
my eyes stare into his.

“Us.”
The corner of his lips turns up,
he’s smiling.

He inches closer
his arm is around me.

“Hmmm…”
“What about us?”

I smile back.
I don’t know what it is
but he does something to me.
I can’t stop smiling.
I’m
happy.

“About how you make me feel.”

“And that is?”

“Fantastic.”
