Excerpt from Surprise Groom
“So, why did you track me down?” Julien asked before
taking another, larger swallow of coffee. “Must have been important to brave the gay
nightlife of Miami.”
Again, he was straight to the point. Caleb couldn’t
prevaricate in the face of his directness.
“I came to ask you to marry me.”
Julien spit his coffee across the chipped laminate tabletop.
Caleb grabbed a napkin to blot at the puddle while Julien gaped at him, brown droplets
slipping down his chin.
Finally, he swiped a hand over his mouth. “The fuck did you
just say?”
“Just for two years,” Caleb said. “Sorry, I know this is
sudden—”
Julien’s eyes were wide. “You think?”
“I have reasons. This isn’t some creepy stalker
thing.”
“Well, that’s a relief,” Julien said. “I thought you came all
the way to Miami because you were secretly in love with me.”
“No, I …” Caleb caught himself, realizing belatedly that
Julien was being sarcastic. “Okay, funny. Obviously, that’s not the case. It’s a long
story.”
“Probably a story you should have led with.”
Hard to argue with that. “Yeah, I guess your bluntness
rubbed off on me.”
Julien muttered something under his breath.
“What was that?” Caleb asked.
“Nothing.”
Julien shifted, his eyes darting away to study the decor.
There were several portraits of famous singers from the fifties and sixties hanging on the
wall. Caleb recognized Elvis, Buddy Holly, and Patsy Cline. He assumed the diner was named
for Holly’s song, Peggy Sue. There were also several autographed pictures of drag
queens.
Sally returned with two plates of pie and slid them onto the
table. They were perfectly triangular in shape, with a thick white foam overlaying the green
layer. Caleb’s saliva glands activated just from looking at the picture-perfect dessert.
“Anything else?” she asked.
Julien shook his head. “Nope.”
“We’re good, thanks,” Caleb added.
Julien fixed him with another of those challenging looks
once Sally had click-clacked her way back to the front counter. It made Caleb want to squirm
in his seat.
“So you want me to marry you,” he said.
“Yes. For two years.”
“You are aware I have a dick, right?”
“It was hard to miss,” he said.
Julien’s skimpy briefs had barely contained his swaying dick
while he danced at the club. But Caleb didn’t need that image in his head right now. Or ever,
really.
“This got weird.”
Caleb raised an eyebrow. “Just now?”
Julien laughed, a warm tenor that curled around Caleb. It
was a note or two deeper than his laugh had been when they went through their
knock-knock joke phase at age ten. But Caleb recognized it.
“Okay, it’s been weird for a while,” Julien admitted. “But I’ll
bite. Why would I marry you, and why would you want me to?”
Caleb sat back, rubbing a hand over his jaw. Now came the
tough part of selling Julien on his idea. “It would be like a business deal. A job, kind of. I have
a contract we would sign.”
“Okay, that’s … not any less weird,” Julien said.
