We had a chemistry.

But there was something else.

Something peculiar because--

He was everything you weren't.

Which was the cause, I believe of our sexual heat.

I remember the day we first f***ed .

Jesus

The waves on the Sound were louder than thunder

I was a teenager.

We'd just moved here from Brussels.

I was supposed to be in my quarters, but I'd slipped out

to watch Renaldo work from there.

As I waited to catch a glimpse of him,

I was distracted by the growing storm.

Suddenly a weight came crashing down.

It was Renaldo .

And?

He said What are you doing here?

My defenses told me to say None of your business

But I took a chance and said Waiting for you

That's when he took me.

Took you?

He f***ed you right there on the stairwell?

In like, 1918?

Well the year is off.

A little.

You're a whore, men have the best sex

of their life with you.

But make no mistake, the only worthwhile sex

is when both parties are doing it to please themselves first.

I had no idea what was physically possible

between two boys until we kissed

Then what?

Well, let's save that for next time.

Waiting for you

The words haunted me

Another date?

Another trick?

Actually, no .

Jill's wedding is next weekend

Will you come with me?

People might think

I dated her because I was in love with her brother Matthew.

He was gorgeous and funny and so protective.

And cocky.

And self-centered .

Probably why you loved him .

We were together for three years .

Except for the gay thing, I really loved her.

I left her to find my soul mate.

And you don't want to show up empty-handed

Partly that.

And partly to have a trial run with you .

That was the fastest erection I ever got

A top. Thank God.

Trial run?

Yeah. A weekend together.

Go to Portland get this thing out of our system .

Two seconds ago you're talking about looking for

your soulmate and now it's about this thing

you want to get out of your system?

I just meant get to know each other.

You do not know me?

You've lived with me for a year!

X, nobody knows you .

Ouch.

Let me be the first.

I don't want to be one of your hookups

Not in front of the Beaver.

I am so in love!

Interrupting something?

Please.

Who's your latest victim?

I like to think of them as host bodies .

for my heart.

So you're swearing off other men?

I'm in love. Not insane.

He wants an open relationship .

It's perfect.

And you discussed this on your first date?

Our first date's tonight.

I'm at the bus stop and this beautiful guy comes up to me

and says ''smile.''

I looked at him .

And I did .

That's the worst come on line ever.

It pisses me off when guys say that.

I'll be perfectly fine.

Then some a**hole says smile.

Like I'm in a bad mood, and if I am I owe it to him

to cover it up and make his world a brighter place.

You're sensitive for an ice queen .

You know what line pisses me off?

I'm not normally into black guys but

They need to be shot.

It's like on this must be my lucky night.

You're feeling abnormal

and I'm black.

I like any come on line.

They're compliments .

How can you have too many compliments?

Leave it here it's that Stella Stevens prostitute movie.

I loved prostitute movies.

Liz Taylor in Butterfield 8.

Julia Roberts in Pretty Woman.

Marlene Dietrich in every movie she made.

As a kid I thought prostitutes were

the most beautiful creatures alive.

They were wise-cracking, extravagant,

and you always learned from them.

I felt destined to join the ranks of all the

Hollywood actresses who'd ever played a prostitute.

I asked my mother if I could be a prostitute

when I grew up.

She simply said

No

X, who was your first date?

What does that have do to with anything?

This is an ambush?

Andrew and I don't know anything about you,

so let's start with something big .

Well, let's just say that some dentists open wide

for their patients .

Your dentist had sex with you?

Hot.

And paid me.

How old were you?

My last two years of high school

It happened more than once?

Almost weekly.

Was he cute?

Not particularly.

That's molestation .

He should be put away.

They should erect a statue of him .

It paid for college.

But you were like a minor.

He took advantage of you .

Who's barely 18 and already blown half the Seahawks?

I'm attracted to them, it's consensual .

I was attracted to the money.

I don't have issues with hustling if someone chooses it,

I just have a problem with people pushing kids into it.

Are you considering choosing it?

Hell no .

I'm living rent free.

Young man you need to get a job or go to school

Forgive me Father, I was too lazy to do more

than pretend everything would be alright.

The next day was a big happy family day.

The last one for a while.

park We strolled through Volunteer park.

Cruised hotties on Broadway.

Then went home and mutually masturbated.

You wish.

Check that one out.

I have to have him .

You're kidding

I want my Ding

I want my Dong .

I give'me three weeks .

Once more with sarcasm you sounded a little too jealous

I'm go in an take both of them .

Anyone wanna dance?

Watch Blowy Joey in action?

C'mon, X.

Come shake your money-maker.

I'm not covered for shaken money-maker syndrome. Sorry.

Laters, Taters

Sorry if I freaked you out last night.

I'm not that freakable.

Still, come to the wedding .

As a favor to a friend .

I thought you weren't out to anyone back there.

That's what the trip's for.

I do not think I can do it alone.

You talk to your mother every week.

It'll be fine.

No, it's different.

A middle-class black family from Oregon?

It's always different.

For every family.

What'd your family do?

They never noticed when I left home, so I certainly

didn't call to tell them who I was f***ing .

I thought you hadn't f***ed anyone

since you were twelve.

You know what I mean .

I wish I did .

I'll go .

As a friend .

They're totally taking me to a bathroom stall

Andrew?

Will you stand guard?

You owe me big .

Thank you B.R.B !

You might find it domestic, but there's

a certain sense of power that a garden gives you

It's almost godlike.

Got sh*t?

Buttloads .

I just put Junior to bed .

He's growing so fast.

Well, I didn't check that.

Are you in love with me?

Absolutely not.

Why did I say that?

Oh god whatever you do do not jump off this building.

I thought I was in love with you .

For the longest time.

Until I realized we couldn't be together.

Why, you want an open relationship too?

Actually, yeah . Partly that.

You've been spending too much time

in the land of Blowy Joey.

Okay, you'd give up hooking for a relationship?

Don't call it that.

You'd give up your career for monogamy?

That's not cheating. That's just business .

Don't even pretend you don't know how f***ed up that sounds .

To the logical person it makes sense.

Would you ever consider quitting?

I make a lot of f***ing money.

I can't do anything else.

I do not want to do anything else, I'm good at it.
