Summary
Jay can't dodge this one. Mrs. Johnson is turning seventy-five and she wants her entire family to spend half of December together. They've rented two massive cottages in a fancy winter resort four hours north of Toronto. Maybe, maybe, if he and Matt weren't getting married, he could duck out of it. Maybe if fifty thousand dollars weren't being dangled above their heads, he could whine and mope his way free.
But Matt wouldn't hear it.
"You're going," he said.

“You familiar with the Beatles, Bird?”
“Am I familiar with THE Beatles?”
--
“Hey. Stay still.” Jay said, very matter-of-factly. He rested his head down once more, and actually closed his eyes. There was something serene about it, something that made Matt feel more comfortable somehow. Here, in the closest he’d ever come to sex so far, he was under no obligation to perform. No eyes were on him, no cues were being taken from him, not even the gaze of the guy who had his fucking dick in his hand would rest upon him. Matt knew Jay was too high to have done that intentionally, but part of him wondered whether it was a subconscious choice. If he really did know Matt that well, to know that he wouldn’t be able to let go of himself with an audience.

Summary
The whiteboard is the catalyst, but it really isn’t. It tips over a series of dominoes that lead to Jay’s bedroom, get under his feet, and walk him out the door. But, in the morning after, when the whiteboard has that big, capital D ‘Don’t’ on it, and Matt won’t be honest about having written it, despite it clearly being his handwriting, the whiteboard isn’t the catalyst, because Matt gets up on the couch and erases it, and it’s almost like it wasn’t there to begin with.
A retro/prospective on Jay McCarrol's fame.

Summary
