We had been roommates for three weeks.
We had met each others parents.
And siblings on move in day.
Hundreds of students.
To meet and get to know.
Not sure why we seemed so focused.
On getting to know each other.
He seemed to think it was important.
Then over a game of catch football.
He comes out of the closet to me.
The one thing he has never told anyone.
I am attracted to guys.
Yes I think you are hot.
I am cool with just being friends.
Explaining he has never done anything.
Anything gay with a guy.
But he desperately wants too.
He is just really scared and slightly clueless.
He seems a little stressed.
I haven't said a word about this update.
I suggest we head back to our room.
To discuss this further.
Making clear he has no reason to panic.
I don't want another roommate.
In the five minutes it took.
To reach our room.
A sight delay at the vending machines.
My mind was blowing through.
Quickly every gay thought.
I have ever had in my life.
Not that there were a lot.
Inside the room he falls onto his bed.
Tossing the football to the ceiling.
He said, keeping my secret.
Makes you my best friend.
I love you for that.
The love you part got my attention.
Standing at the foot of his bed.
I crawl on top of him and give him a kiss.
I go for his neck, he goes a little crazy.
He grabs me, to make eye contact.
Wait. He says, Are you gay too?
I say, Bro I don't know.
But ask me again, after we do this.
