There　were　so　many　rainbows　it　made　him　nervous。

？PFLAG；　my　darling；　stands　for　？Parents　and　Friends　of　Lesbians　and　Gays？？？　Jeanette　began。

？And　it？s　a　party？to　celebrate　your　ing　out。？　Vanessa　appeared　at　Jeanette？s　side；　holding　a

ballpark　frank　festively　slathered　in　mustard　in　one　hand　and　a　small　digital　video　camera　in　the

other。　She　was　wearing　a　black　tank　top　with　the　words　HE？S　MY　GAY　BOYFRIEND　printed　on

it　in　hot　pink　lettering。　？Happy　Gay　Day！？　she　called　out　from　behind　the　camera。

For　a　second；　Dan　couldn？t　help　feeling　a　little　touched　at　how　supportive　she　was　being。　Maybe

they　could　be　like　Harper　Lee　and　Truman　Capote？he？d　be　the　gay；　brilliant　star　of　the　New　York

literary　scene；　and　she　could　be　his　grounding；　stabilizing　force　and　literary　muse；　all　rolled　up

into　one　cute；　bald…headed　package。　Then　he　remembered　where　he　was？apparently　at　his

ownsurprise　ing…out　party。　He　tried　to　focus。

？I　thought　I？d　video　your　journey　into　gaydom；？　Vanessa　told　him　with　a　smirk。　？Your　mom

thought　it　was　anexcellent　idea。？　？e　with　me；　Daniel。？　Jeanette　pulled　him　toward　the　kitchen。

She　handed　him　a　glass　of　bright　pink　liquid。　？I　know　I？ve　missed　a　lot　of　things　in　the　last　couple

years。　I　wanted　to　do　something　special　for　you　right　now。？　Couple？　Tryten　。　。　。

Dan　stopped　walking　and　stared　at　his　mother？s　not…entirely…familiar　face。　The　truth　was；　he？d

gotten　used　to　her　being　away　a　long　time　ago；　but　he？d　always　felt　especially　bad　for　Jenny；

growing　up　without　a　mom　and　all。

？But　really；　teenagers　all　just　hate　their　parents　anyway；　so　I？m　sure　it　wasn？t　much　of　a　problem。？

Jeanette　sniffed　dramatically。　？And　this　summer；　I　was　really　able　to　reconnect　with　Jennifer　when

she　was　in　Prague；？　she　went　on；　her　voice　warbling　as　though　she　were　about　to　cry。　？And　then

when　this　opportunity　to　support　you　came　up？well；　it　just　seemed　like　the　right　time　for　a　visit。？

Dan　nodded；　not　sure　what　to　say。　It　made　him　happy　that　things　were　right　between　Jenny　and

their　mother；　but　did　that　really　mean　she　had　to　fly　to　New　York　and　ruin　his　life？　？Well；　um；

thanks；？　he　finally　stammered。

？Now！？　Jeanette　blinked　her　eyes　rapidly　and　grabbed　his　hand。　？Your　darling　boyfriend　was　just

teaching　me　how　to　make　Cosmopolitans！？　Dan　frowned。　Boyfriend？　He　looked　across　the　room

and　was　shocked　to　see　Greg　at　the　kitchen　counter　wearing　a　pair　of　brown　American　Apparel

cargo　pants　rolled　just　past　the　knees；　rainbow　suspenders；　and　a　crisp　white　T…shirt；　vigorously

shaking　a　chrome　cocktail　shaker；　his　glasses　sliding　down　the　bridge　of　his　nose。　Dan　lifted　a

hand　in　a　tentative　wave；　trying　to　look　cheerful；　and　walked　over　with　his　mother　at　his　heels。

？Hey！？　Greg　grinned　widely　as　he　approached；　putting　down　the　martini　shaker。　He　opened　his

arms　to　give　Dan　a　hug；　his　shaggy　blond　hair　falling　into　his　eyes。　？Sorry　I　didn？t　tell　you　I　was
