His eyes wandered from his face, down his chest, down to his waistband, wondering what kind of underwear this handsome man was wearing. Josh couldn’t help but stare as he thought of what he could possibly say to get this man’s attention. “One rum and coke” the stranger said to the barkeeper who got started on the drink without even carding him. He was beginning to think tonight might be a bust when a handsome stranger sat down next to him. By the time the second drink came Josh had already scanned most of the club searching for someone who struck his fancy without much luck. There must be something in his face that made him look too young to be there, almost boyish, which the bartender all but confirmed as he asked to see the young man’s ID again before serving up any drinks. There was one place he knew he could go in order to blow off some steam from the work week in a few different ways and that was Rumors, a gay bar he liked to frequent.Īfter showing his ID to the bouncer for likely the 100th time despite being a regular, Josh made his way over to the bar. His parents had always made it seem so natural and effortless when he was younger.
He hadn’t realized until graduating from college just how hard it could be mustering up the energy to get through a 40 hour work week. It was a Friday night and with the work week finally over Josh was ready to live up the weekend.
