Chapter 7

Of course, he could do that. Easily. But he’s been a part of my life for so long now that I’d never imagined he wouldn’tbe. He’s my best friend. He drives me around, we do the shopping, we cook and clean, we watch games on TV. We do the ‘couple’ thing too: we kiss and caress, though definitely not enough, especially in company.

I’ve never wanted anything different since I’ve known him.
