Andrew:
I think I've always known I was interested in guys as well as girls. I suppose that made it easier to hide. It was, perhaps, one of the few things I was confident about. It wasn't something I doubted. It was just part of me, part of who I was. Why try changing it? I suppose my mother is to blame for that. Not that she knows I sleep with guys. She can be somewhat overprotective.
Charles, on the other hand, likes to pretend he's straight, but I know he likes me more than he's letting on. It's just a matter of making him confident enough in his own feelings to feel comfortable with that.
Charles:
Actually, it's a little ridiculous how much I struggle with it. Unlike Hansen, I grew up with a family who would probably support me if I did come out. Then again, everyone in our family are rather visible. I think part of my hesitation comes from knowing how public it would be, and that scares me.
I don't... want to be out there, as a queer. It's too difficult. What's stupid is that it shouldn't even be an issue, and yet...
I keep beating myself up over it because I'm scared no one would even believe me if I did come out. Not that I even know what I'd come out as, either. I'm not, well, gay, but I'm not really straight either. I don't know what I am sometimes. Andrew pretends he knows what's going on with me, thinks he can explain it all away, but I kinda like not knowing. It means I have nothing to hide.
