Gaze Quote by Nick Pageant
““I mean, are you even really gay?” I sighed. “Of course I’m gay. I’ve got something up my butt right now.” Twyla’s eyes widened in shock and her lips spread into a delighted grin. “You do? Oh, my God! What is it? Is it like a… place holder?” I shook my head and laughed into my hand. “There’s nothing up my butt. A placeholder? You’re nuts.””
