Color Blind

Chapter Three page two

(Dylan is the picture above)

Timothy and Alexander walked into the grocery store.  "We need milk, eggs and coffee." Alexander read off his phone. "I'll get the  coffee. You get the milk and eggs." Timothy said. Alexander agreed and went for the milk.

Timothy turned onto the coffee isle and stood next to a guy to look at the different brands. Timothy looked over at the guy next to him. "whoah! Dylan?" Timothy exclaimed. The guy looked over at Timothy. "Timothy?" Timothy nodded, "It's been so long why are you here?"

Dylan explained that he was going to finish high school in a apartment he was renting.

Alexander rounded the corner to the coffee isle and saw Timothy talking to a guy with a red Mohawk. He walked up beside Timothy. "Hey who's this little guy." Dylan asked Timothy.  "Don't call me that please. I know I'm only 5'4 but I'm a late bloomer."  Alexander said trying not to get annoyed. Dylan smiled and said "Sorry I didn't mean to offend you." Timothy got the coffee off the shelf and introduced the boys. "Alexander, this is my childhood friend Dylan. He moved to florida in 7th grade. And Dylan, this is Alexander I live with him and he's my boyfriend."

Dylan wasn't completely surprised.  He always knew something was off about Timothy when it came to sexuality. Everytime a girl flirted with him, Timothy never new that she was doing it. When a girl confessed to him, Timothy always let them down easy. Although it was hard to tell, Timothy was in fact gay. Dylan was happy that Timothy found someone. Timothy used to never smile as a child. It was even worse after his mother passed away. So it was good to see Timothy so happy. Dylan snapped out of his thoughts. Dylan looked at Alexander. He was a petite almost feminine looking boy. But he didn't look gay either. He was in pants and a shirt that was probably two sizes too big. He was seemingly flawless as well.

"It's good to meet you man." Dylan said reaching out his hand for a shake. "You too." Alexander returned, shaking Dylan's hand. Alexander turned to Timothy, "I hate to cut this short but I gotta get to the Doctors."  Timothy laughed, "Oh right! Hey Dylan lets exchange numbers and hang out soon." Dylan nodded, "Of course!"

The boys exchanged numbers and went their separate ways. 

When Timothy and Alexander got to the house, Timothy offered to drive Alexander to the doctors.  "No, I think I should be alone for this one. Its a bit different from a regular appointment." Timothy nodded and Kissed the top of Alexander's head, "Drive safe"

When Alexander left, Timothy quickly became bored. He pulled out his phone and called the number he just got. "hey do you wanna hang out?"

"Alexander Burk?" A women called. Alexander stood up. "Come on sweetie, your up."

Timothy heard the doorbell ring. He stood up and opened the door. "Hey man!" A happy Dylan greeted. "Hey come on in!"
