Theo cleared his throat. “Well, word’s been getting around…”
“What word?”
Theo glanced at me, then back at Wes, who simply said, “That I’m gay.”
Theo looked a little sheepish. “Well, yeah. Someone coming out in Elite, that kinda is big news.”
Wes nodded.
“Thought you might want to meet some other people in the LGBT community. Sometimes it’s nice to meet people who understand.”
“That’s really nice of you,” Wes said, holding the flyer up. It was all done in rainbow colors. “What’s a blackout rave?” he asked.
“Bro, we went to that freshman year,” Jamie said. “You remember that, Ryan?”
Ryan flashed a smile. “I remember the stuff from before I got drunk.”
“I thought it was an LGBT thing,” I said.
“Our club sponsors it, but it’s open to everyone. We’re all-inclusive. The only requirement is that if you come, you have to be all-inclusive too,” Theo said, flicking a look at me before settling his attention back on Wes. “It’s pretty fun. It’s a big party that’s dark except for blacklights, and people use glow-in-the-dark body paint and stuff. There’s music. Dancing.” His eyes dipped to Wes’s body on that last word, and I shoved back in front of him again.
“No,” I said.
Theo’s eyes narrowed as if he were looking at me for the first time. “Who are you exactly?”
“He’s my br—” Wes started, and I nearly popped a vein right there.
“I’m his friend. And he has stitches in his head. He can’t be out drinking and partying.”
Theo’s eyes widened, then went back to Wes. “I heard about your accident. You’ve really had a week.”
“Yeah,” Wes said.
“Which is exactly why you should come. Blow off some steam.” Theo glanced at the table. “You’re all invited.” Turning once more back to Wes, he said, “I know it’s easier to come to parties with people you know.”
“Will you be there?” Wes asked.
What in the fucking fuck?
I rotated to stare full on at Wes. He flicked me a glance, then dismissed me completely. I turned to Win, and he gave me atold you solook.
“Hell yeah. Gotta get my dance on. I’ll save one for you.”
Wes blushed.
He fucking blushed.
I opened my mouth, but Wes stepped around me.Around me.To face Theo. “Thanks for this.” He held up the paper. “I’ll see if my friends want to come.”
“I’m in,” Kruger said immediately. I think I liked him less than Jamie.
“Me too,” Prism echoed.
“It is after the meet tomorrow,” Jamie said thoughtfully.
“Light swim the next morning,” Ryan added.
I turned to give the entire table aWTFlook. Was this payback for what I said at the hospital? Did they not see this douche was literally drooling on Wes?He wants to dance with him.
