"To Toota..." Everyone around us is cheering and the birthday boy couldn't look more happy.

"Thank you guys so much. And thank you for coming out with me tonight. It's high time that this love machine is getting some action again..." He wiggles his eyebrows and shakes his bum in an adorkable way. I can't help but laugh.

"All for you, my little love muffin."I pinch his cheek and of course I am getting a slap to the head as a response. The same routine as everyday.

"So, how do you feel about your first visit to a gay club?" Toota is asking. I close one eye and crook my head to the side.

"I really can't see much difference to a normal club." Toota snorts.

"Are you blind, you idiot? There are no women here to start with and I have never seen Arthit and Kong actually making out in public. Like NEVER." I turn around to the dance floor and yes, unbelievably it's true. Arthit is hanging on his younger lover like a baby panda to their mother and the taller junior is grinning like an absolute mad person.

Who would have thought that all it took for Arthit to loosen up a bit was a half a bottle of Tequila, a gay club and his boyfriend? I can't stop watching them while Kong is swaying his giggling partner to the beat of the music. It looks like they are having fun.

"Come on, Toot... Don't be such a bore. Come over and dance with us." Two other friends of the birthday boy are yelling over from the dance floor and before I know,I am all alone in a gay club.

But I can't say that it bothers me. Knot and Prem actually fled the scene as soon as it was socially acceptable to leave a birthday party. It's not that they are homophobe or anything. I mean we are all really close friends and they never had an issue with Toota being gay and even when Arthit came out it was no issue whatsoever. But somehow the chance of a guy flirting with them was too much for their fragile male egos and they fled like a bunch of headless chickens.

Me? I am not bothered about this whatsoever. I am okay about my masculinity and my sexuality. I mean,I like girls. Always have and always will. They are so warm, soft and god, they smell so amazing... Guys are just not like that. I can't remember ever looking at a guy that way.

So I don't mind any guy trying to flirt with me. I mean I am not that ugly so I guess it's just bound to happen. I will just turn him down and move on. I am absolutely sure....

"Hi." The voice of a stranger is suddenly pulling me from my thoughts. Surprised I turn around and Iam sure my heart stops beating. In front of me stands the cutest guy I have ever seen. He just looks so warm, soft and hell, he smells amazing.

I have to blink a couple of times before my mouth is able to make a connection with the brain again.

"Hi." is my extremely intelligent answer.

"I am Rome. Wanna dance?" He smiles up to me and I am not sure if my brain just exploded or what is going on. I can only gape down on him and grin. He looks stunning. What did he just say?
