(I think I'm only gonna have 100 chapters in this, but I'm not sure how I'm gonna work that out....)

"We only have a month of school left." Eston remarked, staring up at the blue sky.

G let out a muffled sob from where he was laying face down on the front steps.

"Why are you so upset? Aren't you ready for summer?" Dick asked.

"But this is our last year together, and it might be hard to keep in contact after graduation!" G cried.

"Please, I'm dropping you bitches the moment graduation is over." Dick said.

"We've been friends since middle school, and yet I always seemed to be shocked by how little we mean to you." George answered.

Dick shrugged in response, and lifted his face up to the let sun shine down on him.

They were sitting on the front steps after school let out, George waiting for Philip to be done with theater rehearsals, and the other three just there to enjoy the warmth.

"What colleges are you guys going to?" Eston asked.

"I'm going to New York University." George said.

Philip and I are going to King's College." G answered.

"I'm going to The College of William and Mary." Eston replied.

"Isn't that down in Virginia?" G asked, frowning.

"Ya, my Dads' lived down there, then moved up here for work." Eston replied.

"We won't see each other a lot then, will we?" G asked, George could here a faint trace of worry in G's voice.

"No, but I'll be up here for holidays and stuff, I guess." Eston said, laying down on the top step.

G nodded and turned his head away.

"Well, I know Frances is going to King's as well." Dick said, tapping his fingers as he listed off the college's that their friends were going to "Theo is going to Harvard, David is going to Columbia University, and Will is going to some fancy computer college or something."

"What about you?" George asked.

"Oh, no college for me! Well, maybe community or online  college or something, but I plan on being a gay stripper, and then being David's trophy husband probably." Dick said.

"But what if stripping doesn't work out?" Eston asked.

"I already have a place to strip at picked out, and I know the manager, so I think I have it all under control." Dick said.

"Well don't come crying to me if your plan doesn't work out." Eston mused, looking out at the mostly empty parking lot.

"Whatever you say, birthday boy." Dick said.

"My birthday's not until the 21st, a week away." Eston replied "And speaking of birthdays- why didn't you tell us when it was your birthday last month? I would have gotten you something."

"Eh, I don't like celebrating my birthday- it reminds me I'm getting old." Dick said.

"You're eighteen, Dick." G said, rolling his eyes "Will doens't like birthday celebrations either; we passed his a while back."

"Why don't we do birthdays anymore?" Eston asked "I feel like a bad person, not getting you guys anything."

"The only gift I need from you is your friendship." Dick said, patting Eston's head.

"I thought you were dropping us the minute graduation ended, though." Eston said.

"Shut your whore mouth." Dick answered.

(I didn't forget their birthdays, I have no idea what you're talking about)
