My dad and Rick a close friend of the family had finished a twelve pack.
For the first two hours they bitch about my mother taking off.
Rick was more mom's friend then dads. Now everybody hates her, including me.
I sit on the steps going upstairs and listen to two drunk old men.
Have a friendly discussion with children upstairs about doing gay stuff.
Rick has listed several possibilities like adult book stores a gay bar.
Dad admits he gets offers at his gym by gay body builders.
Dad say he can't trust them, people talk, someone will find out.
Then Rick asks. Will you give me a chance to prove gay stuff us better.
Dad was questioning. You - me - gay stuff - seriously?
Dad said. Only because I am drunk and desperate enough and want to go to bed.
Right then in our kitchen they bump fists.
I watched them agree to do gay stuff with limits if it gets weird.
Dad said lets go in my office and they exit to the garage.
Their trucks were in the driveway it was fairly empty.
Dad old broken pool table and mom and dads old mattress.
I must admit I was wondering to be clear I was clueless.
What kind of gay stuff, take over an hour and a half to complete.
They both come back in with smiles just to say good night at the front door.
I am pretty sure they are gay, they did that kiss on both cheeks thing.
A long kiss on the lips, while grabbing selective body parts.
Rick points out to my dad I am sitting on the couch watching them both.
Dad shakes his head... someone always finds out.
You might as well spend the night and we do more in the morning.
Sweet I am too drunk to drive, and I would love to spoon with you too.
Dad replies. With me in back right as he and I make eye contact.
As they head up the stairs dad stops and give me a look.
Not a word to your brothers I tell them at breakfast.
We went to bed at 2 am and all of us slept in too late.
The boys woke them up asking if they are boyfriends now.
Dad and Rick said hell yes we are and Please close the door.
