“Is my sex whimsically inventive?” inquired Tonkin.
“That is what I write on bathroom walls.” Johnny smirked. “‘For a whimsically inventive time, call John Tonkin.’”
“I know you’re joking but I’d be ok with that.”
“Paddy,” Johnny turned to address him. “Can I ask you a question.”
“Of course,” responded the Irishman.
“Are you ever going to sleep with Eoin?”
“That’s awfully personal.”
“We don’t ask Paddy questions like that,” muttered Tonkin.
“You don’t. I do. What’s the deal?”
“Well,” Paddy spoke slowly, as if choosing his words carefully. “Word around camp is I’m giving his sex organs a proper jostling.”
“You guys have been together forever,” snapped Johnny. “He would clearly like to have a physical relationship, soooo, what’re ya’ doing?”
“We’re down the rabbit hole, now,” shrugging his shoulders, Tonkin cocked his head at Paddy. “What ARE you doing?”
“Well, I’m very fond of Eoin.” Paddy admitted.
“Well, what’s the problem?,” asked Johnny.
“All my life, I have been uncomfortable with the sort of physical intimacy that comes easily to others,” explained Paddy. “Handshaking, hugging, prostate exams. But I’m working on it. Just recently, I had to put vapo rub on Eoin’s chest. A year ago, that would’ve been unthinkable.”
“Now you know how I feel when I have to put it on you.” Tonkin hissed at Paddy.
“Ok,” Johnny held up a hand. “So, are you saying someday you and Eoin might…get physical?”
Paddy contemplates for a few moments.
“It’s a possibility,” then he rose, making his way to the fridge.
Johnny silently freaked out in Paddy’s wake, grasping Tonkin’s arm.
“Paddy,” Johnny spoke tentatively, “I know this wasn’t easy for you and I’m really glad we could have this conversation.”
Paddy smiled at him, turning to get ice as Johnny pummeled Tonkin’s arm in surprise and elation.
