Robert and I decided to go to the mall today after coffee. We walk into Converse, then Puma, next to Abercrombie, and finally, stop at Calvin Klein. I walk over to the cologne area with Rob.

While standing there, I spot a girl with a blonde pixie cut jumping up and down. I look to the other side of her and see a long blonde haired girl dragging a guy. The guy is laughing with his head tilted back. That's when I see it. Those blue eyes.

Shock, longing, and excitement hit me. I can't believe I've run into him, again. Wait, maybe if he sees me, he'll think I'm stalking him. Excitement envelopes me.

"Rob," I say looking at him.

He looks away from a bottle of Dark Desire and at me.

"That," I say pointing in the direction of the four people, "is the guy."

He looks over and focuses. His face relaxes.

"Damn," his lips say, and then he signs, 'you got a beautiful boy.'

I nod as I turn back to the small group. The girls and the guy are walking towards a fitting room now. And in the long haired girl's arms is a bunch of underwear. Not for her but a guy. The short haired girl has a couple of shirts in her arms for guys too.

I knew he was straight.
