I pack my stuff in the morning. I can't fit our friendship in the 2 boxes Mitch "gave" me. Oh well. At least I have a coffee machine.

I grab the keys and take the car. I stop at a motel and check in. They have a bar attached and that is where I will spend the rest of my life. I get as drunk as possible, hoping I'd just black out. I don't. The bar tender stops me. Damn you bar tender. Let a grown sad man be!

Around midnight I hear cheering. I turn around and see a lady with long brown hair. She is as short as Mitch. She walks past me. Fuck! She smells like him too! Wait! I've seen those clothes.

"Mitch?" She turns around.

"Why-y are you here Scott?" Mitch stutters. He looks scared. I've never seen him this scared in my life. My heart breaks.

"Mitch. I'm so sorry. I-" Mitch pushes me out of the way and runs away crying.

"Mitchy!! I had no idea!"

"Leave me the fuck alone Scott!" Mitch cries out as he runs out.

I run after him in the rain and stop him in the street. "Mitch you can hate me for the rest of your life but no matter what I will ALWAYS love you for who you are. I don't care if you are a normal guy, girl whatever! If you want to be a drag queen, do it! I won't stop you ever. Makeup and all I love you at the end of the day."

"Scott-"

"I don't want you to ever be scared of being yourself. My heart breaks knowing you have been afraid. You weren't ready to tell me and I was pushing you to hard. I'm so sorry that I was a horrible boyfriend and I love you. So I'm going to go and let you be. Let you think. If you decide at some point you want to see me, I'll always answer the phone. And if you don't... I will still love you regardless."
