Time to get ready for school. But if Casey could have his way, he would just have delated this day out of the calendar.

How could he meet Zeke again, sit beside him at their lab table, as if nothing had happened? Probably it hadn't for Zeke. It had been just a joke; for Zeke, everything was so easy; he loved to play his stupid games, not caring about other people's feelings.

But for Casey, this fleetingly kiss had turned his world around. Finally, he had to face his deepest dreams, he had never had been able to admit before.

„You want what?“ Zeke stared at his boyfriend, flabbergasted. „Making a trip into the jungle?“

„Well, yes.“ Casey looked somehow uneasy. „I know, we already have different plans for summer, but going on a phototrip in the Brazilian jungle together with Cath Simard is a once-in-a-lifetime chance.“

„Never heard about her before,“ Zeke gnarled.

„Of course, you don't; she's not a Formula One race driver, but only a brilliant landscape photographer who thinks that taking photos is a great way for self-expression. She never went to art school but used to work as a fashion stylist for a while. Until she discovered her love for outdoor photography; now, she is traveling around the world most of the year.“

„Hm. Sounds pretty geeky.“ To Casey's relief, a faint smile turned up on Zeke's lips. „I'm sure you two will get along together very well.“

„So, it's okay for you? Because, if not...“

„Disappointed,“ Zeke admit,“ a tiny bit. But I guess to love someone means to make compromises now and then. It wouldn't be fair to ruin your chance to work together with her for a while. Just come back to me on one piece.“
