First time Quote by Jayson James

“It had not been the first time that we had said something like this to each other. It was not like guys went around saying it all the time to each other, but over the course of the years of being the best of friends; we had said it to each other. Trevor had been the one to say it more often to me…” quote by Jayson James

“It had not been the first time that we had said something like this to each other. It was not like guys went around saying it all the time to each other, but over the course of the years of being the best of friends; we had said it to each other. Trevor had been the one to say it more often to me. It took me quite a few times before I could say it back to him. This was something much deeper and we both knew it. We were in love.”
