I think now would be a good time for me to wet my pants. "Uh…dad…" I can see the look of anger on his face and at the same time, I know he can see the fear on mine.

"Mr. McCormick, it's not what you think." Stan steps in putting his hands up in defeat.

"Okay good because it looked like you had your tongue jammed down my son's throat." Dad slowly walks towards us. He glares at Stan. "I think it's time you went home."

"You know, I was thinking the same thing." Stan grabs his coat. "Call me if you need anything." He whispers in my ear. I nod as he walks out.

I look at dad who's now standing over me glaring. Then he slaps me across the face. I put my hand on my face where he hit me. "What the FUCK were you thinking? HUH?"

"Dad..." I look away from him. "Stan and I…we…like each other." He punches me in the face.

"What the fuck are you talking about? You're not gay!"

"Yes dad…I am." He hits me again.

"What the hell is the matter with you? I know I raised you better than that."

"Dad, I can't help who I like!"

"You can and you will!" He stares at me for a second. "Open your mouth."

Oh no, not again. "Dad, please…" He grabs me and forces my mouth open. He examines for a minute then slaps me again. "OW!" I cry out in pain.

"You chipped your fucking tooth!" Oh yeah, with all that was going on it completely slipped my mind. "You know damn well we can't afford to get that fixed!"

"Dad, I'm sorry. It was an accident."

"Accident my ass! I should even up your other tooth!" He holds his fist up. I quickly duck. He puts his fist down and heads towards the door. "I can't deal with this right now. I need another drink." He walks out. I quickly call Stan.

"Hello?" He answers almost immediately.

"Hey, it's me."

"What happened? Are you okay? Your dad looked pretty pissed off."

"He is. I told him I was gay."

"How did he take it?"

"He left to get a drink. I have no idea what he's going to say when he gets back." I figured it's best that I leave out the physical aspect of his reaction.

"That's might be a good thing. He may need time to calm down."

Oh Stan if you only knew. "Yeah, that's it. He also wasn't happy when he saw my tooth."

"But that wasn't your fault."

"That doesn't matter to him, all that matters to him is that we can't afford to get it fixed."

"Aw man, tough break. I'm sorry you have to go through that."

"Thanks, but I'm used to that. Well I better go. I'm going to try to take a nap."
