Will drove to the Holiday Inn he was so furious but then he started to realize that the had a lot more hardship coming his way. It was his first taste of homophobia and definatley not his last. He parked the car and went up to Jack's room.

"What's with the 'tude?" Jack asked as Will entered his room

"My brother." Will answered

"Oh didn't go over well with him?" Jack asked

"I guess you could say that but I just don't understand. But why can't they see that I'm the same person I've always been?" Will asked

"Will you are not the same person." Jack said

"What do you mean?" Will asked

"The person you were before was scared and ashamed. You are now on your way to becoming proud. I'm sorry to tell you this Will, but your whole life is about to change. Everyone in your life is going to see you differently like it or not." Jack explained

"Jack-" Will said as he sat down and placed his head in his hands in frustration "I knew it would be hard but not this hard" Will explained

Jack sat next to Will and began to rub his back "I know its harder than you thought but most of the things in life that will make you happier are difficult at first. But the hard parts over. The rest of the way I'll be with you but you had to do this part by yourself."

"Thanks Jack" Will said

"Now lets get out of here." Jack said

"I don't know if I'm ready to go back to the house yet." Will said

"We don't have to go back to the house lets go shopping. You are in dire need of a more slimming wardrobe." Jack said

Will laughed and got up as he and Jack headed to the mall.
