Oh, To be Gay In Aurora (Wayne x Garth)
Wayne doesn’t remember falling asleep last night. One minute, he was captivated by the Buffy the Vampire Slayer tape they’d rented (Kristy Swanson- what a babe!) and the next he was curled up on his basement couch, something warm against his chest.
If Wayne doesn’t remember falling asleep last night, he certainly doesn’t remember how he ended up in this position. It’s only when Wayne opens his eyes that he fully grasps the situation. Lying there, face pressed against his shirt collar, is Garth. His glasses had been lost somewhere during the night and Wayne, for a single, fleeting thought hopes they haven’t been broken, before the sound of Garth softly stirring reminds him of the issue at hand.
As he watches Garth settle under his chin, Wayne is overcome with a sudden urge to pull him closer. At that, he has to stop for a second. What would bring on a thought like that? Surely it couldn’t be anything more than a freak incident. It couldn’t be anything... gay. Wayne Campbell? A homo? Yeah, and monkeys might fly out of his butt!
Still, if having Garth so close brought a little swell of affection to his chest, it’s no one’s business. Garth is his best friend. Of course he loves him. And so what if he gets the urge to hold his hand from time to time. Wayne is just a very affectionate friend. He worries about Garth. It’s normal. He’s sure it is. Even if it wasn’t, who cares? It’s not like he’s gonna marry Garth. It wouldn’t be legal.
Taking a glance at Garth’s watch, the hand it belongs to splayed across Wayne’s chest, he takes note of the time and deems it way too late at night to be considering such life altering topics as his own sexuality. So what if he loves Garth a little too much? So what if right after he checks the time, he pulls Garth closer, closes his eyes and falls asleep with his hand slipped beneath his best friends shirt?
He’ll simply deal with it in the morning.
