Wolf Like Me - Prologue. Locker Staring Contest

I thought I’d left my days of staring into gym lockers back in high school. I picked up the habit in middle school the one time I caught the wrong asshole’s attention and got the shit beat out of me. I’d kept it up for six years, and thought my senior year would be the last time. University was supposed to be the liberal bastion of sodomy and sin, and I’d left my homophobic Texas hometown for Virginia (which if you ask any Southerner isn’t technically in the South, even if it is below the Mason-Dixon). I am in a much better place, I shouldn’t have to stare at my locker while changing for practice.

It’s not that I want to stay in the closet, I don’t hide that I’m bi, I just can’t find a less awkward time to come out. I don’t really brag about conquests, male or female, and I’m not in a relationship either. Plus, the places I pick up men and the places I pick up women aren’t the same, and there is only one place I seem to run into my teammates. So I can’t really blame them for not figuring out that Cory Card, freshman linebacker, plays for both teams.

And, to be honest, most of them seem like they wouldn’t care, nor would they read anything into stray looks. I’ve managed to break the locker-staring habit, and do well enough to look at whoever is talking to me, but I still have reason enough to keep my eyes fixed where they’d been for most of my teens –

Fucking Efrain fucking Garza.

This is an interesting prologue. I do want to say, that as a Southerner who was born in Alabama, raised in Georgia and South Carolina, and is currently living in Virginia herself, that I do consider Virginia part of the South. Just saying. :P

As a Floridian living in Texas (did a few years in Tennessee and Georgia, too), I've had the argument from many different angles. IMO - if you can't get a decent buttermilk biscuit, and they don't look at you crazy when you order unsweet tea, it ain't the south. Although, I'd take Virginia style barbeque over whatever Texas thinks they're doing any damn day.

Hi, good morning every one. 

I don't know whether or not this is the right place, anyway, let me ask you readers something.

Yeasterday here at GA i came across a story called Wategame by author Walter Spencer. He seems to be a very decent writer, articulate and everything and the story is around, coming out, family accptance college life etc, the kind of themes we read everyday here and everyone seem to enjoy.

Well the deal is: when i come to the end od chapter four, the author left a note telling the story was not to continue due to the lack of readers, since he never got a single coment on it. (Which made me sad fir the lack of support he's got )

Can i ask you guys a favor like trying to give authir  Douglas Spencer a push. My guess is that most of you guys will like his story.

Thanks.

@Tonyr I sometimes don’t comment on each chapter as I get so engrossed in the story that al, I want to do is read the next chapter, which I think happens with some people when they read a good story
