Graduation passed, but I couldn't focus on the ceremony. I couldn't think of anything, anyone, but Clay and Wilbur's words. I felt so guilty. The guilt sat not on my chest but inside my brain. I knew there was nothing I could un-do.

Wasn't fair, wasn't fair, wasn't fair.

Clay didn't congratulate me afterward. He ran to George and grabbed him into his arms, and they spun, laughing; beautiful, so goddamned beautiful.

I could see it in his green eyes, in the way he looked at George; he was mesmerised - he had him mesmerised. And why not - why not? He was everything.

I don't know if what Wilbur had done was wrong or just him being blunt and honest. Clay may be mesmerised by George. But Wilbur had my fascination.
