Bill: "I'm here."
TK: "That was quick, I didn't even hear it ring."
Bill: "Hi. ..."
TK: "Missed ya."
Bill: "ME too."
TK: "It's just so good to hear you."
Bill: "Yeah. You sound good to me too. ... So what's all the news?"
TK: "The really Big News is that Steve and Mark are going to make it
legal."
Bill: "Legal? I thought we couldn't get married."
TK: "I didn't say married, you dipshit. Their gonna do what Gary and Ted
did. Get everything legal. Seems it's Mark's idea. ... Shocked the shit
out of me."
Bill: "When did this all happen?"
TK: "Today!"
Bill: "And it's Mark's idea? You never know. I didn't think he would do
somethin like this. He's always so quiet."
TK: "Shit, I know what you mean, I suppose we don't really give him a
chance. Just cause he's a drop-out we don't..."
Bill: "Drop out? He dropped out of school?"
TK: "Yeah, didn't you know?"
Bill: "No, I didn't. So what happened."
TK: "According to Grams, after Mark's mom died, his old man fell apart.
Never really got his shit together since then. I guess it was about 5
years ago. Mark's pa just kept switching back and forth between the
bible and the bottle. Lost his job, and when they threatened to throw
him in jail. Mark went out and found a job. He had to quit school. at
the end of his junior year. The shit thing about it is his old man ended
up going to jail six months later."
Bill: "Wow. That's really fucked."
TK: "Wait, it gets worse. His old man hates faggots, doesn't even know
about Mark. The old man's out now, and only stops to see Mark when he
needs money. And Mark still gives the fucker what he can."
Bill: "Shit, I guess you never know. You say it was Mark's idea?"
TK: "Yeah, I asked him about it when we were alone. Seems like that's
about the only time he'll talk at all. He says that one of his buddies
that he goes dirt biking with had a bad accident. He's in the hospital
and Mark's been stopping there every day to see him after work. The dude
doesn't have any family. And Mark says he knows what it's like to be
alone. Well, when he was really bad off, the doctors asked Mark if he
was family, and Mark gave them the idea that he was. When it was touch
and go, they asked about pulling the plug. Scared Mark. Decided that he
didn't want his old man to make that decision for him, and he didn't
want Steve's parents making that decision about Steve."
After a moment of silence, Bill: "It's hard to believe."
TK: "Anyways, they talked it over with Ted, and they're gonna do it."
Bill: "When?"
TK: "Sometime in September. Zack's going to be one of the witnesses and
they have to wait til he's 18."

Bill: "Not that this isn't a mindfucker, anything else news?"
TK: "Well, we watched the first two episodes of Queer as Folk tonite. It
was pretty wild, but you can see it when you come for Labor Day. You're
still coming aren't you?"
Bill: "Yeah, you mean labor day, not right now?"
TK: "Keerist, you're as bad as Bart."
Bill: "We'll you know what you do to me? You're going to be here next
weekend aren't you?"
TK: "Yeah. We're still coming."
Bill: "Your not going to believe this, but my aunt, asked if I'd mind if
you slept on the old roll away bed they keep in my room."
TK: "No shit?"
Bill: "She said that Jenny & Shelly could stay in Ryan and Jon's old
room. Zack could stay in Claire's old room. I guess my room's the only
one big enough to set the bed up."
TK: "Wow."
.

TK: "You ever hear of a English band, called boyzone?"
Bill: "Isn't that the group Bart was talkin about?"
TK: "Guess so."
Bill: "Never heard them. Why?"
TK: "Just wonderin."

TK: "It's been over an hour, we got to call it quits for now. I'll send
you some e-mail tomorrow. Love ya!"
Bill: "Love ya back."
