Tom woke from a fitful night’s sleep, his cramped legs aching, his body exhausted by fatigue. With a groan, he sat up and raking a hand through his sleep-tousled hair, he swung his legs over the edge of the couch and stood up. His limbs tingled with pins and needles—the end result of sleeping in a confined space—and he shook his arms and stamped his feet until normal sensation returned. Once satisfied he could move without fear of falling over, he headed toward the kitchen. He hadn’t eaten anything since breakfast the day before, and his stomach growled in protest, the emptiness inside his gut completing with the emptiness inside his heart. The erotic images of Dennis and Jorge had infiltrated his dreams, except in his fevered vision, Jorge …show more content…
Seconds later, he heard the shower turn on, followed by the sound of water hitting the back of the stall, the steady thrum echoing throughout the small apartment. Slowly, an idea formed in Tom’s mind, the concept bringing a smile to his lips. It was providence, a sign from the Gods, and he could not let the opportunity pass without taking action. He’d procrastinated too long by allowing his fear to dictate his feelings. But all that was in the past. It was time to move forward, to push aside his misgivings and embrace life to the fullest. It was time for him to prove to Booker just how much he loved …show more content…
Naked, he padded across the living room floor, the erratic thump of his heart pounding loudly in his ears. His skin prickled with anticipation, the paleness of his face and the tremor of his hand betraying his internal struggle and the uncertainty of his decision. But he pushed through his anxiety, determined to carry out his plan. It was his time, and before he could allow his nerves to get the better of him, he inhaled a deep breath and opened the door.

A sudden gust of air rushed through the bathroom, the breeze rippling the shower curtain against Booker’s legs. Surprised, he pulled back the vinyl drape, his eyes widening as he took in his lover’s naked form. “Tom, what are you—”

    Disconcerted by Booker’s expression, Tom’s brow drew into a confused frown before realization dawned and with a yelp, he cupped both hands over his groin. Embarrassment heated his face, flaming his cheeks a bright shade of amber, and he cursed his misfortune. Once again he had made a fool of himself in front of Booker and once again, his pride lay in tatters. It was becoming an unwelcome habit, and he ruefully wondered why the universe had decided to make him the butt of its jokes. Inching backward, he grabbed his comforter off the bed and quickly draped it around his naked body, covering his nakedness.…

    Wrinkling his nose, he walked into the room and pulling back the curtains, he threw open the window. A blast of warm spring air wafted into the room, the channel of air rhythmically caving and billowing the sheer drapes. He breathed deeply, the scent of hickory and oak intermingled with exhaust fumes preferable to the musty smell inside the room. He couldn’t remember the last time Tom had showered, and it showed. But all that was about to change.…

    As he continues to walk, he strains his eyes to the blackness. The wind whistles by his ears, the creaking of the trees makes his skin crawl; things that make him feel as if he was a five year old again, walking to the bathroom at night. Against the muffled murky mist, he thinks he sees a dark silhouette. His blood comes rushing up through his veins, as it pounds in his ears making a deafening roar.

    Comparing Core Values The TED presentation by Bryan Stevenson on “Why We Need to Talk About an Injustice” discusses several important issues on pivotal matters concerning race and inequalities. Stevenson principles reflect those of an individual who seeks to evoke a change in the world and allow others view the world the same way as he.
