    Tabloids buzz about my secret boyfriend, and whispers of my queerness fill the media.

    A few days later, I find myself in the company of a famous actor, Darius. He's charming, attractive, and most importantly, he's a man. The media is eating it up, and I can see the headlines changing. I spoke with my boyfriend on the phone, and he pleaded for us to mend our relationship.

    "I can't risk my career any longer Nick."

    I ended the call and ignored his attempts to reach me.
