Intro:
Another birthday together, the thirty-second for Justin and Kyle, is bitter-sweet for Justin. This year marks yet another year gone by without Kyle knowing how much Justin has wanted him over the years, and how much Justin loves him. They spend so much time together that their friendship is much stronger than most married couples they know, the heterosexual married couples, that is. The two men have shared so much already, political careers, heated debates over the social climate of their time, that perhaps the way things are is enough for Kyle. But it is not enough for Justin. This year is the year, Justin decides, to discover the truth about his and Kyle’s friendship or love, whatever it may be.
Book Content:
Justin and Kyle had just celebrated their thirty-second birthday together. Born in the same year, they had grown up during the same period of time, though in different cities. Good friends, or at least acquaintances, since their senior year in college, they were what they called “products of their environment, and products of their time.” They were born in the very late sixties, and so had missed the “sexual revolution” that their parents had experienced. In fact, it was during what their parents had termed their “free love” years that Justin and Kyle had been conceived.
Both born to very young parents, Justin and Kyle had formed their own social and political views which were very different from those of their parents. Their parents had been so very liberal minded that the views of Kyle and Justin had inadvertently been formed very similarly, in regard to their outlooks and opinions about politics and the social climate of their time. This was either because of, or perhaps in spite of, having grown up and “come of age” during the 1970s and 1980s. The two of them had witnessed the same events in the history of their country, the good, and the bad. They talked caringly about these things, almost sentimentally, now that they were grown men.
Kyle and Justin had seemed to mesh well in their political science courses in college. They had both wanted to go into politics in some way, and had had big dreams of “changing the world” much like their parents had had a generation before them. Neither knew just exactly how this “world changing” would be accomplished, however.
Justin and Kyle seemed to be unlike most other guys that they had known during their undergraduate days at the University of Michigan, unlike those guys who seemed only to want to talk about their weekend’s sexual conquests or their school’s football standing. That was the price that Kyle and Justin had paid, they had decided, when they had chosen to attend a traditional “party” school.
“Where you planning to work next year?” Justin had asked Kyle one night when they had finished yet another of their many heated political debates with each other. “Had any offers yet?” Kyle had surprised Justin with his response. “I’m thinking of going to graduate school, Jus.” Justin had wondered if Kyle had wanted to stay in school so that he could be close to him for a few years longer, but would never have asked Kyle. Justin certainly did not want to leave Kyle yet. Changing his mind about his own future suddenly, at exactly that moment, Justin answered, “That sounds like a good idea, Kyle. Sure would give us a much better head start into the political arena. I think it’s a great career move. I should do that, too.”
