But when I find out that my new roommate, Samuel, is as gay as they come, an eccentric artist who I initially hate because of his loud parties and wild ways--even if he is hot as sin--I'm beginning to question my decision to fly so far from the nest.When the lab is put on lockdown and I'm forced to quarantine with Samuel, I realize that there's an unlikely, yet undeniable, chemistry between us. My Aunt Claudia might not be the only one who will be putting the word "roommate" in parenthesis. But Samuel isn't someone who wants to speak in euphemisms or keep our love quiet and hidden in the shadows.
I'm falling in love with Samuel and I want to be with him for real, but will I find the courage to come out of the closet for him?
Samuel: Bubble butts on twinks are a little hard to come by, but it seems like my fairy gaymother has handpicked one all the way from the Hillsdale suburbs for me to keep for myself.I knew Gregory was hot from the picture he submitted to the roommate website, but I didn't know my stars had aligned enough for him to also be gay. The only problem is that he doesn't accept this little fact about himself, and at first, he hates me for living my best life while he sits around moping about his miserable one.I totally get that his parents are homophobes, but I try to tell him, "Honey, it's time to cut the cord and let the real you shine through." When I decide to go in for a kiss, I'm surprised to find out he's down to do that-- and a lot more--despite his repressed ways. A guy could get used to this, but this guy's so obviously gay that I'm afraid to let myself fall for Mr. Pretends-To-Be-Straight-and-Narrow.
Is this just a little bump and grind during mandatory quarantine or will it end up being the start of our new life together?
