We snuggled in and the alarm woke us, Chris had work today and I had school, I would run home get my workout in, then get showered, dressed and off to school. Chris would pick me up at school and we would go talk to my parents about me sleeping at his house.
He and I kissed a hundred times before I ran off and he got in his car and headed to work, I got home, Mom was watching me as I scurried to get all I needed for school. I asked if she could drive me as I was running late.
I got dressed and in the car in no time flat, Mom looked at me as she drove.
“What’s going on with you my Son?”
“Nothing, why do you ask?”
“We are going to school and you are smiling ear to ear, and how come you did not come home last night?”
“Chris and I watched a tv show and it was late so I just stayed at his place on the couch.”
“Do you think your Mother was born yesterday? On the couch my eye.”
“Mom can we talk about this after school, Chris will pick me up and we will come by to talk to you and Dad.”
I knew she had a million questions to ask me, but I was exiting the car.
“Thanks Mom see you after school, love you.”
I got some weird looks from most of the school, I am sure they had heard about Chris and I at the store, and there was no Steve at school today, guess I would have to shower alone. I talked to one of the teachers that I liked and trusted, I asked her a few questions about Chris and I.
She set the record straight and told me school rules, I would set my plan in motion now, I got the materials I needed, I got a dozen roses, who knew roses were so expensive. I got a classmate that I was sure to be a lesbian drive me over to where Chris worked.
I walked in, Chris worked in a bank he was an investment advisor, and very good at his job. I walked right in, I asked to see.
“Mr. Jacobs Please”
I stood in the middle of the bank holding up my sign and the dozen roses. He came out nervous and shy like usual, he stood there a few feet in front of me, his hand on his mouth.
“Chris Jacobs will you go to prom with me?”
He of course started to cry, I walked up and hugged him, he cried into my chest, the entire bank you could hear a pin drop.
“So Babe will you?”
“Yes of course I will Billy.”
I pulled him in and kissed him right in the middle of the bank full of people, first only a few clapped then the entire crowd joined in when they heard his answer. Who knew so many people could be tolerant of us gays in this tiny town.
