			       Embarrassment
				  Part 7
			   An end to Education

Three fun years passed way too quickly. I worked hard and played hard,
missed Ken but had great sex with him on holidays and with Ajax for most of
my university time. Justin was still my best friend, but no sex now. He was
going to marry Marie as soon as he had a job, and I was co-opted to be best
man when that day came. Ken and I both got jobs in our hometown and bought
a house together.

The next big one was to come out to my parents, Ken the same.

"None of them will find it normal for us to live together in our own home
if we aren't gay so let's bite the bullet."

"Together or separately?"

I wanted to be a coward and have Ken with me when I told mine, but in the
end we decided to do it separately. No trauma. I had a good job, we had a
fine circle of friends from our school days so if Mum and Dad took it badly
I would be very upset, but not devastated. So I went home and talked to the
parents without a problem. Dad was funny. He stood in front of me hands on
hips, legs spread, after I had told them, looking a bit belligerent.

"About bloody time, and why didn't you trust in our love enough to tell us
when you and Ken first became lovers?"

Then he grinned, pulled me out of my chair and gave me a hug.

"Seriously Son, we are a little disappointed that you didn't trust us to
continue loving you."

I teared up a little and then Mum got up and gave me a kiss.

"We love you so much and are so proud of you."

Too much, the flood gates did open then.

"I love you two so much as well, I was so frightened that I might lose
you."

Waters smoothed over, arrangements made for a dinner party, with Ken's
parents attending as well if they accepted our relationship.

I arrived at our home first and worried about Ken. Of course I needn't have
done. He would have been home first if his parents had rejected him. He
came in an hour later a little inebriated but very happy.

"Mum and Dad want to know if we are going to get married."

Then he fell into my lap. Kissed me very passionately before saying, "Shall
we, we could beat Justin to it if you like."

What a good idea. We did better than that though, we made a foursome for
the wedding. Justin and Marie made it clear to all their friends and family
that if any were homophobic please be kind enough not to attend.

The wedding was incredible Ken and I were delighted to be blessed and Marie
was an absolute hoot, kissing both of us and then winding Justin up by
telling him we were definitely cooler kisses than him. Then she floored us
by continuing, "Of course Justin, you know that much better than I do don't
you."  The outcome of that was Marie telling us that she was just about
100% sure Justin and I had been in a sexual relationship before.

"I'm really quite flattered that he chose me over you Paul because you are
one very hot man.

I guess that was the best part of the day.

Ken and I are Godfathers to all of Justin and Marie's children, and what
fun we had with them as they grew up. Justin really did have the house full
of kids he always wanted.

We never made love again, but it wasn't a taboo subject, even when Marie
was around. Justin Jnr. turned out gay but knew always that his dad and
godfathers loved him just the same.

Ken and I both had successful careers and retired with a big pot of pension
money so that we could continue to spoil our godchildren, and eventually
their children.

From the age of 16, Ken was my lover and my soul mate, and Justin was my
best friend. How lucky was I?

Definitely the end this time.
