::OUTING:: Chapter 11 **Present Time** Gabriel’s POV “Stop doing that shit, you’re gonna give yourself a stiff neck.” I frown at Vin but keep craning my neck in all directions at once. “Where are they? I can’t see them.” I’ve been trying to spot Vin’s parents among the people that crowd the terminal but to [...]

Outing [10]

By NJRD | Published: May 10, 2009

::OUTING:: Chapter 10 **Present Time** Vin’s POV As I close the door of the house I see Gabe talking with Lorna, our neighbor. I still don’t know how old she is, anywhere from 50 to 80 is my guess. She won’t tell us, anyway. Lorna doesn’t believe in ages, she says that knowing how old [...]

::OUTING:: Chapter 7 **Present Time** Gabriel’s POV The phone rings and Vin goes to pick it up, returning short after with the cordless. “No, it’s okay, we’ve been up for a while,” he says into the receiver, taking a seat at the table. “Sure, let me talk to her.”

Outing [6]

By NJRD | Published: March 4, 2009

**Present Time** Vin’s POV I don’t consider myself an excellent cook but I know my way around casseroles and pans. Unlike Gabe, who is a truly lousy cook. If left to his own, he’d probably do with frosted package of precooked food or worse, gummy bears and popcorn. Ever since I’ve known him, I’ve been [...]

One week later. Nice (France) Luna looked through the big window of the salon and saw Vin lying in a hammock, completely absorbed, reading a book. She recalled the events of the last week while staring at his body, chewing her lower lip.
