Chapter 5Keith sat in the Rover in the driveway. Half a dozen times he put it in gear and started to back out of the drive. He knew Bobby needed him tonight. He couldn’t do it. He couldn’t change the way things had to be. He couldn’t give false hope to either of them.
At that moment, Keith hated himself. If he had a gun, he would have used it. No, he wouldn’t because that would mean he’d never see Bobby again. At least this way, when the others got over it, and his Bobby found someone new, he would be able to look at him.
See but not touch that honey blond hair. Watch but not kiss his lush lips. He’d know that Bobby was making love to someone else, could he ever bear it? He banged his hand on the steering wheel and sobbed like a baby.
