difficult thing billy/dom

"It's a difficult thing, Salmon Boy said after a long time. Salmon Boy whispered, It's a difficult thing for one man to love another man, whether they kiss each other or not." -- Sherman Alexie, "South by Southwest", The Toughest Indian in the World

Here, Dom decided. If I was in a movie, this is where I would fall in love. If this was a movie, I'd love Billy, because he's here with me. Because he makes me laugh. Because we touch. Because people say our names as if we're one person.

I'm doing the best I can, Dom said, arm around Billy, to make you love me forever.

Billy rested his head on Dom's chest, listened to the thump thump thump of his heartbeat. You can't make me do anything, he said finally. It's a hard job, falling in love. But it's mine.
