““Fred, who was probably gay, didn’t bother to hide himself and didn’t care if you looked. Then again, he never hinted at wanting to fool around and I suspected he might be asexual, but really, I think he was very comfortable with his sexuality. Simon was a lot of fun to be around because he was gay and totally trusted our inner circle with his secret. Simon, Declan, Cody, and I generally shared an unspoken bond of knowing about each other while in seminary—we didn’t have to tell each other we were family.””
