“You two, shoo.” Monica Havis waved her hands like she was trying to
get rid of some foul odor that suddenly floated through her pristine kitchen.
“There’s too much to do right now, and you boys are in the way.”
Atlas watched as his sister entered the kitchen, appearing frazzled.
Jennifer had always been the golden child of their family, but Atlas didn’t
resent her. He adored his older sister, even though her larger-than-life
personality could be overwhelming at times.
Atlas’s best friend nudged his shoulder, urging him to leave, but before
Atlas could escape, his mother snagged his wrist and flashed him her most
endearing grin. That was never a good sign. “Have you found a date for the
wedding yet?”
Braylon rolled his eyes behind her back. His best friend knew exactly
what she was asking. Atlas knew, as well. “No, Mom. Not yet.”
The thought of asking a guy to be his date for the wedding held no
appeal. Especially after his devastating breakup with Glen, someone he
thought he was in love with—until he’d caught his boyfriend grinding on a
stranger at Fearless Fox. Glen had had the guy pressed up against the wall
in a dark corner near the pool tables, with his face buried in the man’s neck
and his hand groping the stranger’s crotch.
At that moment, Atlas had felt his heart shatter. When he’d visited his
mom the next day and couldn’t hold back his tears, she’d consoled him by
saying that if he had been in a relationship with a girl, things wouldn’t have
turned out the same way.
Because apparently heterosexual couples never cheated.
What his mom was currently asking was if he’d found a female to bring
to the wedding. She couldn’t accept that her son was gay and refused to
acknowledge it. She’d even gone so far as to tell their relatives that Atlas
was dating various girls, though he wasn’t ready to settle down yet.
His mom acted as if being gay was something shameful that needed to
be hidden.
His father? The best dad ever. Jacob Havis didn’t care that Atlas was
gay. Not that he ever wanted to talk about the problems Atlas had with his
dating life.
It wasn’t because his dad was uncomfortable talking about gay
relationships. He was uncomfortable talking about anything having do with
sex. When Atlas was fourteen—before they’d known he was gay—his dad
had sat him down to talk about the birds and the bees, only because his wife
had nagged him to death about doing it.
The only thing his father had said was, “Use condoms, son. A guy’s
gotta protect his manhood.” That was it. Their sex talk had been over in five
seconds flat. Thank god.
They’d spent the rest of the time talking about his
dad’s passion for muscle cars, a subject Atlas was clueless about, but he
loved seeing his dad’s eyes light up when he talked about them.
“You only have two weeks,” she reminded Atlas. “You can’t show up
solo at your sister’s wedding. Craig tells me he has a single cousin. He
could set up a date for you.”
