The Batboy

Two days later Thad was on the roster to work the game. This would be the first time he would see Iggy since the hot-tub thing. He wondered what his reaction would be now that he knew Iggy was gay. During his time off from work, Thad thought about Iggy’s relationship with Danny. Were they just buddies that messed around once in a while? But Thad had seen them kissing. Wouldn’t that mean there was more to their relationship? Did gay guys have those kinds of relationships?
