Rafa soon appeared, beautiful as always, and gave Marcos one arm and me the other, and then the three of us went down to a cool bar that had opened near our house. However, it was still early and it was pretty dead. But after about two hours it started to get livelier, and a cute guy wouldn't stop looking at me.
Since Rafa and the jerk are making out over there, why not get some action myself?
I went up to the guy and we started talking. He was nice, and quite handsome, not gorgeous or anything, but very doable. He asked me to dance and I accepted. After a while he started looking at my mouth, and I saw that he was going to kiss me, so I went to meet him, until I was pulled back. I was startled and when I looked it was that imbecile Marcos.
"What the hell, man?" (I said close to him because you couldn’t hear anything over the music).
"Seriously? You're going to put on this gay show in front of everyone?”
"What’s the problem? You and Rafa were just making out."
"We are a man and a woman, not two men. This is ridiculous and disgusting."
I rolled my eyes and looked back at the guy, but he disappeared while we were talking. Great, he must have thought we were together and that Marcos was having a jealous fit. Ha! Little did he know that it was actually a prejudice fit. I wanted so badly to punch that idiot in the face.
As soon as I turned back to Marcos with an immense desire to punch him in the face, Rafa appeared.
"Great, I see you guys are getting along."
"Yeah, so well that I’m leaving." (I said, already walking away from them.)
Rafa came after me, dragging Marcos with her. Once outside, she started talking.
"What happened?"
"Nothing, this queen is just throwing a tantrum."
"You'll see a tantrum in the middle of your face, you imbecile!"
I was about to go after him when Rafa stepped between us, glaring at him.
"This imbecile pulled me away when I was about to kiss a guy inside."
"You did that?"
"I thought it was ridiculous that he wanted to be making out with another guy inside a bar, a totally public place."
"What’s the problem?... You know what? Go home, Luan. I want to have a word with Marcos alone."
"Fine by me," I shrugged, "I’m gone."
I kissed her cheek and left.
Marcos
Ugh, that was all I needed. He wanted to make out with another man inside the bar and now I'm the one who has to listen to Rafaela about how prejudiced I am, blah, blah, blah. What the hell. I don't think that's normal and I won’t. And I certainly wasn't interested in seeing him kiss another guy.
"Either you change and accept Luan for who he is, or at least try to, or this is over between us."
"Are you serious?"
"Luan is the most important person in the world to me, and I may not be the best friend in the world, but I won't tolerate dating a guy who keeps him from kissing and being happy the way he is. So either you accept it or we say goodbye here and each go our own way."
After much thought I replied.
"I'll try to tolerate him, okay?"
"Okay, but if I don't see that you're really trying, we're done. Got it?"
I rolled my eyes and didn't answer.
We went to her house and when we got there she asked me to sleep with her, and after she insisted a lot I agreed.
Luan
I got home already stressed. For God's sake, I haven't been with anyone for ages, and now that I'm going to, that idiot stops me. I only didn’t break his face out of respect for Rafa. I don't know what she sees in him. She's crazy to be with someone like him, but in the end the decision isn't up to me.
Paula was already home, and she asked if we could order pizza because she felt like it, and it wasn't that late, so I ordered it. And while the pizza wasn't here yet, she wanted to know what happened for me to get home so stressed, so I told her everything. I usually told her everything, so there was no reason not to tell her this. And she was horrified by that guy’s level of prejudice.
"Honey, I know you don't want to upset Rafa, but don't stop being who you are because of that. You don't have to put up with prejudice because of it."
"I know, but it's been hard to put up with that guy. But I'm going to go change my clothes; the pizza should be here soon."
"Okay, honey."
As soon as the pizza arrived, I went back to the living room, we put the pizza on the coffee table and we watched “Supernatural” while we ate.
Once we were full, I paused the show and took the rest of the pizza to the kitchen and put it away. When I returned I went to talk to Paula.
"There's one more thing I didn't tell you."
"What is it, honey?"
"I followed your advice about my dad, and we talked."
"Really? That’s great! So, did everything work out?"
"We promised to try to change for each other, and I also promised to give him more opportunities to get closer to me."
"I hope you guys can make it work. Your father loves you and he's a good person despite everything."
"Okay, but let's get back to the show now."
"Let’s."
I went to the bedroom and got a blanket and two pillows, then we lay down and got comfortable, and after we were cozy, we watched the show until late at night.
