A few months later.
Rodney's unlikely conversation with an awkward teenage relative had given him an idea. Ya see, since it had been over a decade since the other reunion, the original group had moved around a bit more, and Rod and Bob lived just a town away from each other, in Colorado. They were becoming close again, and Bob was becoming more accepting of gay people with the times.
One day, Rodney was telling his Bob, who he still had a crush on, about how he felt bad because he'd only been in one relationship, and it was really shitty, and how things would be easier if he were heterosexual. Bob felt pitty for him, and Rodney gave him a perfectly crafted look.
"Are you trying to have sex with me?" asked Bob.
Rodney faintly nodded.
Bob agreed.
Rodney could not believe it.So, there they were, in bed, clothes on the floor, when Bob came to a realization. "Wait, this is gay." he said.
Rod stared at him.
Whatever, you only live once.
Bob and Rodney ended up doing it anyway, but Christina walked in. She filed for divorce.Bob realized he wasn't completely straight, and he and Bob lived happily ever after.
The end.
