Friday’s Page 69 ~ Really Good, Actually by Monica Heisey
Jon and Calvin were always having fun in ways that I thought were stupid and was secretly desperate to be a part of: hotboxing motorcycle helmets and shooting pellet guns at each other in armour made of stuff they’d found, or, in later years, an actual suit of armour Jon had stolen from the set of a pasta sauce commercial. They loved each other and seemed proud of their ability to say so, making showy displays of being the kind of men who could hug easily and support each other emotionally, but also beat each other up in a game of ‘full-contact croquet’ or start a metal band called Gorgo’s ass.
