who doubted they could really be a couple.
“Most bodybuilders,” Kick said, “are more competitive than com-
municative.” He winked at Ryan. “For me, men have to be more than
competitive.”
“What do they have to be?” Ryan asked.
“Like you,” Kick said.
“Whatever that is,” Ryan said.
Both were performance artists. Kick knew how to handle men
beguiled by his handsome Look. Ryan knew how to manipulate men
with his words.
“Even if you have become a Famous Couple overnight,” Solly Blue

pushed up hard and confident into the dream man whose shoulders and
arms held him in tight embrace. Their tongues intertwined, and pumping
and hugging, they came to the good old bellybucking Princeton Rub.
Kick had Universal Appeal. He was everybody’s type. On Castro,
guys rubbernecked. Cars rear-ended each other. Queens fell up the stairs
