Bridegroom Page #6
I'm tired of hearing about it...
So they're not romeo and juliet.
- That's right...
they're romeo and romeo.
Get over it.
- I did not like to show any
public display of affection...
Whether it would be us
And we wanted
to be affectionate,
a coat or a blanket
And cover our arms and like
- I think that shane
was very conscious
Of where they were
uncomfortable.
To say, "I love you"
in front of friends or anyone.
So we developed
this little code...
Whether we're at like
a dinner or a party,
One of us would find a way just
Just to say, "I love you. "
So, that became a very special
sound for both of us.
- Tom was just so passionate,
and he was so affectionate
That it sort of brought shane
out of his shell a little bit,
As far as, you know,
being out in public
And not being ashamed
or embarrassed
That, you know, "yeah, this
is my partner, and we're gay. "
So what?
- Once, we were in paris,
And we were in front
of the eiffel tower,
I just decided like,
"screw it...
I'm just gonna sneak in a kiss,"
and I did.
Tom's face... he was just like,
"like, what just happened?"
He was so excited.
But then the first thing
we did after the kiss,
We like looked around,
like, "did anyone see us?"
But I'm so happy that I did that
'cause he was just thrilled.
but he wanted it to be legal.
He wasn't gonna settle
for a technicality,
Or an, "oh, it happens
to be legal right this minute,
But tomorrow it could not be. "
He was the kind of man
that just stood up for things,
And I think part of it
Was like he wanted to show
everyone back home that,
"I'm serious. This is me. "
- He bought me a ring
for christmas,
And we had agreed to not spend
any money on each other.
- He would tell me, he'd be like,
"but shane's gonna get mad,
Because we have a budget,
"but I just want
to get it for him so bad. "
- And I opened it,
and it was a ring
With a note in it that said,
"2011 will change our lives
forever.
Love, tom. "
- I had the image of their
wedding played out in my head.
I knew
There was no question
that they wanted to spend
The rest of their lives together
and have a family.
- That was something he wanted
so bad.
He used to say,
"you know, I'd love to have
a little thomas running around. "
- And I guess
one of the saddest parts,
When I really think
about shane and tom,
Is the fact that, essentially,
They were living
the american dream,
With the exception of being able
to get married to each other.
Well, everyone, like, brings up
domestic partnership,
And it angers me in a way,
Because no little girl
is sitting in her room
And saying that,
"I can't wait to have
a domestic partnership.
"I can't wait to wear
a white dress
During my domestic partnership. "
That's not something
They dream
about getting married.
And they weren't allowed
to do that.
And if it is ever legal,
They'll never be able
to experience it,
Because he's not here anymore.
- I was lucky to see tom
# if I fall,
And we talked about,
you know, shane,
And he said,
"I learned what love really is.
I used to have this idea
in my head when I was young,
And being with shane,
I've learned
on a daily basis,
And it's so much more
than I ever thought possible.
That's what the song's called...
"if I fall. "
- # even if I fall
thank you for that.
Thank you for that.
- You're very welcome.
- All right. So, there you go.
"if I fall"... are we agreeing
That's what we're gonna call
the song?
All right.
- The thing that haunts me now
is we had a fight that morning.
Originally, we were supposed
to hang out with our friend alex
And go take photographs
together.
And after our little argument,
I decided
that I would just stay home.
- Tom and I decided to meet
at the studio.
And we kept
going back and forth.
And he was like,
"let's go to your place.
"I just remember
the sunlight in the kitchen.
I need
some of that sunlight now. "
And I was like, "okay. "
He was like, "no, "I want to do
something good for you.
Let's do a photo shoot.
It'll turn this day around. "
So, I had just started dating
this man,
And it was his birthday,
and I wasn't with him,
So tom was like,
"I want to make him jealous,
So let's put pictures of you
on facebook. "
And he was the one
that was like, "let's do it.
Let's do it. "
"hey, can I do your hair?"
I was like, "um, okay. "
And I have, you know,
my brassiere filled with socks,
'cause, you know,
there's just not much there.
- So, tom and I were texting
throughout the day.
And we eventually made up.
- It wasn't even a discussion
Whether or not
to go to the roof,
Because we always went
to the roof.
- And we told each other
that we love each other.
And I'm so thankful that we did
'cause I have that forever now.
- And so, by the time
we get up to the roof,
Tom has his camera.
He's all ready.
- We'd all been up there
like 50 times,
And every time,
I'm just paranoid.
'cause it's not like
a tall wall.
It's a short wall.
- He was just playing around
with the camera,
And, meanwhile, I know that he
had just been texting to shane.
I told him
to stay away from the edge,
'cause we all know
that he's a klutz.
And he even wrote back.
He was like, "ha-ha! I will... "
like, I was joking.
And I said, "tom, I'm serious.
Like, stay away from the edge. "
- So, he takes
a bunch of pictures.
I'm trying to be as slutty...
You know, not sexy,
'cause it wasn't sexy.
I'm in one corner,
and then we suddenly switch.
And he's like, "
I've got it! I've got it!"
So, he takes
like three or four steps back.
I don't think it registered
that he was gonna fall.
He was like, "ha-ha!"
and I was like, "ohh. "
You know, and I looked at him,
And it was like we both thought,
"oh, no.
Shane's gonna be so mad. "
You know, just like if he knew
that we were that close.
And then, after that,
it was a nightmare.
I didn't even go look
over the edge.
I just, like, threw my shoes on,
ran downstairs.
I had my phone
in my back pocket,
And I dialed 911,
but I couldn't hear.
So I just gave it to somebody
out in the hallway,
- I received a text from alex
to tell me that tom had fallen.
And I thought it was a joke...
"there's no way this is real. "
So I texted her back,
and I said, "that's not funny. "
And then I didn't hear back
from her.
And so then I called
tom's phone,
And no one picked up.
So at that moment is when
By the time I got there,
he's on, you know, his stomach.
And I'm rubbing his back.
