   "Garroth! Hurry up man! We need to get every box out of the truck before they charge us another 30 bucks for an extra day!"

   Dante was inside the house, calling at me from his bedroom window.

   "You've been staring into the truck for at least 10 minutes now! Either you take your stuff out or I drive it back to the rental with your stuff!"

   Dante was like a big brother to me. I felt like a middle child alongside Zane with Dante around. He always made me feel safe and loved him as if he really was my older brother.

   "I-I'm going! I'm going.... it's just one more box."
   "You said that 10 minutes ago! I'm coming out there to help you."
   "Wait Dante no-"

   That box had something really important to me in it. I have been staring into the truck for the past 10 minutes because I emptied that box. I couldn't wait any longer; Dante is riding my ass about bringing the box inside but I am way to nervous that someone will see. I definitely couldn't wait until after we returned the rental truck to get it again just in case someone unpacked it, and I definitely don't want Dante to see it.

   "Garroth move; I'll get the b......"
   "DANTE NO-"

I blanked out long enough for him to come over and see it. Oh my Irene. I am #$&%ED.

    "....ox...."
    "You weren't supposed to see tha-"
"Garroth? Why do you have a gay flag?"
"D-Dante-" I started tearing up from fear.
"Oh my Irene-"

I ran away into the house. I was getting mixed vibes from him and I really don't want to be there if he's gonna scold me even more.

"Garroth? Garroth! Let me in, please!"

Dante, go away... PLEASE.... I can't take this right now...

"Garroth! Please I want to talk about it!"

Why... Dante just go return the truck already....

"Garroth..."

I heard rattling on the other side of the door. He was picking the lock. I ran to sit in front of the door so if he succeeded he still couldn't open it.

He did succeed, but trust me when I say he is stronger than he looks. He burst the door open, and sat next to me on the floor in front of said door.

"I brought your flag Garroth."
I didn't respond.
"Garroth. Please speak to me."
Yet again, I still didn't respond.
"I'm... I'm sorry if you didn't want to come out yet. I can tell by how you are acting you definitely didn't want to. I won't tell anyone else, Gar. I love you so much, and no matter what you will always be my bro. You can talk to me about anything yaknow."

I didn't expect this response at all.

"Y-You're okay with it...?"
"Only if you pay the 30 bucks for making our rental go to another day I accept you."

We both started chuckling.

"Promise you won't tell anyone else?"
"I promise as long as you come talk to me about any cute boys you see."

He had a goofy smile on his face.

"Yessir."
