Chapter 3

Neil hadn’t hidden the fact he was gay, which didn’t bother Kev in the least. What did was the fact Neil was certain Kev was straight—since the first two times they’d met Kev had been with women. Kev hadn’t said otherwise at the third party because it never came up, and so Neil treated him as if he was another of his straight friends. As their friendship developed, Kev couldn’t figure out a way to tell him he was bi without taking the chance he’d piss Neil off for not being open with him to begin with.

I should have been honest from the start. But he hadn’t been and now he was paying for it. The more time he’d spent with Neil, the more he’d realized he was falling for the shy yet charming man. The man who more than once had vented about some guy he’d been dating who had fallen short of his expectations—the same way Kev had about some of the women he’ddated.
