He looked at me smiling. I blushed. He's so cute when he smiles. I thought. Stop sinning, Mac! Don't you want to be worthy in God's eyes? You know homosexuality is a sin! I took another shot to forget my unholy actions.

On a Thursday
Paddy's Pub
Mac's POV

It was after work. I sat in front of the bar and went on my phone. It was an exhausting day of patrolling Paddy's Pub. I was going to get myself a drink but then I remembered I don't know how to. I groaned. Where's Dennis? I pondered. That stupid bitch is supposed to be here serving drinks.

Suddenly I heard the front doors open. It was Dennis. I ran up to him.
"Hey." He said smiling.
"Hi." I could feel myself blush lightly. Then his no good-of-a-girlfriend Artemis walked in.
"Hiiii guyysss. Oh my God babe i need some money!" She grabbed him close to her. I could do better than that slut.
"No, please..." Dennis said in disgust. She started to whine like a puppy and grind on him slowly.
Dennis' face turned red. I shot him a dirty look starting to feel jealous. He slipped $200 in her pocket. I wanted to punch that fucking whore.
"Thanks baby. I hope you're ready for the wild ride I have in store for us tonight!" Artemis giggled as she winked and bit her lip. Dennis winked back and she then left. I can't believe how much Artemis is taking advantage of him!

"Are you fucking serious bro?" I said to Dennis.
"... What?"
"Fucking kidding me..." I muttered as I walked to the other side of the bar, turning my back on him. He followed.
"What the hell are you talking about dude?" He asked laughing a little.
"Can't you see she's using you for your money?"
Dennis glared at me. "You don't even know what love is."
I looked down at the ground thinking sad things... very sad things. "You know what? Fuck you man."

I quickly walked to a booth with my head down. My voice and body felt weak, even for a muscular guy like me. I felt all alone... "I should die." I mumbled. Dennis walked over and sat down next to me.
"Well I don't think so." Goddamnit, it was him again.
"Dennis why do you let her her do that to you?" He looked away from me. There was an awkward silence.
"ANSWER ME!"
"I don't know!"
Our hands accidentally touched. I could feel the tingles... the gay... I knew he could feel it too. We both blushed and ignored it.
"Mac, do you, uh... want to catch a movie?" Dennis asked.
"Hell yeah! Lets go see Thunder Gun Express!"
He smiled and nodded. I think we just had a moment.

Mac's Apartment
Dennis' POV

I thought seeing Thunder Gun Express would take my mind off Artemis since we broke up. I should tell Mac but I don't think he's ready.

I knocked on his apartment door. His roommate and our coworker, Frank, opened the door followed by a smell of garbage and blood. The short stalky man shot me a confused look as he chewed on peaches with his mouth open.
"What the hell are you doing at this time of day, Dennis?" He asked as juice dripped down his dry lips.
"Jesus Christ Frank, you're fucking disgusting, you know that?" I buried my face in my hands and shook my head. "We're going to see a movie. Where's Mac?"
"He's still getting ready. C'mon in." I sat down on a gross, dirty couch with small blood stains. I made a face in disgust.
"Do you want some beer?" Frank asked.
"I'm good."

A moment later, Mac walked out. Something about him looked different this time and I'm not sure why. After all of these years of friendship, I couldn't stop looking at his gorgeous dark eyes and his nicely combed hair... goddamnit, shut up Dennis.
"Dude lets go." Mac said. We waved Frank goodbye. As we walked down the hall, he got closer to me. Uh, what the hell is happening?
"So you dumped Artemis?" Mac asked. He moved his hand onto mine, but I hesitated.
"Yeah. You were right, she was using me."
"WHAT DID I TELL YOU DUDE! I TOLD YOU I WAS RIGHT!" Mac yelled excitedly as he did one of his stupid karate punches in the air.

While we were heading to the movie I could still feel the heartache. I was thinking of that perfectly beautiful plump body. Those plump breasts. God, those boobs. Everything about her breasts. I need to get my mind off her.

Movie Theater
Mac's POV

He looked so oblivious. He never noticed how nice my clothes were. No wonder why girls are lesbians nowadays. I frowned as we walked passed the ice cream shop.
"Hey want to get some ice cream dude?"
"Yeah, sure."
He bought the ice cream. He got a small vanilla for him and a large chocolate one for me, my favorite.
"You make me seem fat!" I giggled.
He smiled. God that smile. It makes me want to turn gay for him. Wait what the fuck am I doing?! Why do I want to be with Dennis? I can't be gay, that's a sin!
"Are you okay?" Dennis asked with worries. I nodded and smiled. He looked away and blushed. Maybe I have a chance... no Mac, shut up! You know God can hear your thoughts.

Before I knew it, Dennis was a couple feet ahead of me. "WAIT!" I shouted as I sprinted.
"WELL THEN HURRY THE FUCK UP!" I stood back in shock. Why did his mood suddenly change? Wait, I know! He must of gotten a text from that fat whore. I grabbed his phone and smashed it.
"WHAT THE—"
"Don't fucking even bro." I interrupted him. "Get over her! She never loved you! She just wanted our Dick Towel money! Now smile, you dick!"
Dennis sighed. "You're right. I'll, uh, try..."
"Lets just go home. The movie will be on Netflix anyway." I suggested as I slipped my hand onto his. He held the grip. I leaned in for a kiss and he didn't hesitate. We both turned red.
"See you at work tomorrow?" Dennis asked.
I nodded. "Yeah."

That day, I think we were going to end up being like one of those gay couples. But I can't. God will punish me. But is it too late? Have I sinned too much? God, why is this so confusing!
