I envy Colton. He’s never been in the closet. Not really. I mean, it’s not like he came out when he was twelve or something, but he’s never had a girlfriend. Nobody has any expectations about him. Colton is just sweet little Colton. My friend Sarah and I were a couple before I even realized it. “Childhood Sweethearts,” that’s what they call it. I doubt anybody will actually be surprised when Colton comes out. Our parents won't be mad or anything when I come out, but they will be a little bit disappointed, because I let them have other hopes and expectations. Whatever our mom may suspect about Colton, what she hopes for me is that somehow me and Sarah will come to our senses, get back together, be a “happy couple,” and give them grandkids to spoil...
