Josh seemed a little surprised when Alice said that, although he let out a soft laugh and smiled after registering what had been said. “I guess you can say that. He…does mean a lot to me, and of course he’s changed my life. First relationship I ever had.” Josh glanced back at Akira, looking at him and noticing he mustn’t have been very comfortable with such compliments.
“Akira has changed my life more than he could imagine. Although I have yet to tell anyone about being with him, better yet being gay.” Josh sighed lightly and then looked at Alice. “You’re the second person to know actually.” he smiled, of course a little nervous about knowing another person knew about him but it was a little uplifting as well.
