Chapter 32 Horizons Fate (2)

• I ordered Richard a beer as he settled in taking a long sip from the frosty mug. We began chatting about little things in our day and I felt so comfortable around my new friend. After several beers, he began sharing how he too had been married and once considered himself to be a die-hard heterosexual. Richard revealed that a guy who went to work at his company began to make subtle advances. At first taken back by such overtures, he soon became curious and eventually found himself giving in. After several months, he and his wife separated and he and his coworker got an apartment together.
• Richard saw the look in my eyes as he shared his story. He reached over and put his hand on top of mine on the table. "Don't worry Michael," "Lucas knows I'm here. He actually encouraged me to contact you." My mind was racing at the thought of two guys. I had prepared myself for meeting Richard but it never occurred to me that it might be a threesome. Yet, I felt the warmth from Richard's hand and the electricity it seemed to generate through my body.
• "Look, let's go back to my place and have a drink. Lucas's interested in meeting you too. If you feel uncomfortable, you can leave and we'll both understand," said Richard. That didn't sound unreasonable. If I got into something that was over my head, I would just get the hell out. "Okay, let's do it," I replied.
