Chapter 1

When I met Devon, his eyes were the first thing that attracted me to him. My heart started to melt when he started my way.

“Hey sexy boy, what’s your name?” His pulled out his leather bound wallet as he waited for my brain to react from the body of the man, the sexiest man I have ever seen in my life.
“ L… Landon” I clear my throat and repeat, “its Landon.”  If only he could see my heartbeat he’d know that I’m already crazy for him. “Want to drink tonight it’s on me?”

My heart started palpitating when I met his gaze, for a moment it felt as if we were on a secluded island. Drinking margaritas, while kissing passionately.

“Here’s your drink”

His hand was shaking, I could tell he was nervous, because beer splashed on to my lap as he handed me the glass.

“Oh s**t I’m sorry” He said in a panic, I just sighed and laughed sarcastically as he freaked out as if spilling my drink on me was a big problem. “Don’t apologize it’s cool, it’ll dry I’m sure. “ He sighed feeling awful about what just happened at the bar table. “ Dude I said it’s fine, no need to worry” I reassured him. Before in knew it, he grabbed my hand, leading me to the dance floor. I was surprised at how one instant he could go from feeling awful, to one second being so carefree. I loved it. We made our way through the stampede of the crowd and on to the center of the room. Neon lights gleamed, as a song came on: A slow song to say the least. Devon is so hot I focused on him, the whole time we were dancing. “ So I was wondering… do you have any reason as to why the bar is so packed tonight?”

As we dance Devon says “everyone comes here on Friday night, it’s the best bar in Kanas for Gays to meet and chat. “ What about Tran’s genders, are they welcome?” He laughed about my question, but the expression on my face told him that I was serious. “ Well yeah everyone’s welcome here we don’t judge, we aren’t the kind to judge.”  We danced with our arms attached to one another’s neck. Slowly as if the music never stopped. “ Tell me about yourself, why’d you choose coming here?” he asked and paused. Waiting for an answer, “To have a better life, to fit in….”

“My parents disowned me after I told them I was trans-gender they don’t want anything to do with me or the way I live. So when they went to sleep, I was packing my bags, and I was just gone. I haven’t had contact with them in a year.” A single tear rolled down my face, leaving Devon to wipe it for me.

The song stopped, we broke loose. “ Want to get outa here, we can get coffee or something?” I nod. As we walked out.

The night was cool, I looked at the blackened sky, shifting my attention to Devon saying. “ Thanks for the good time tonight, I really liked being with you. My heart was telling me, to kiss Devon but I wasn’t positive how he felt. When I get nervous, my breathing starts to increase. I can’t tell if he likes me back, my voice convinces me.

Turning to face me, Devon says “ Come to my place, I insist you take the suggested offer” I wasn’t expecting that. Especially the first night we had met. “I’m not sure I can, Devon we’ve just met. I don’t know you.” He sighed “But Landon we can be alone. “ I shrugged and said, “ok

He caught me by surprise, when his lips met mine. “ I’ve wanted to kiss you the whole damn night” he said gracing my face with his hands.
