[Straight Guys 01] • Boarding Now

Jonas moves to Nashville to pursue his indie-rock dreams, leaving his girlfriend back in New York. Jonas's daily routine becomes browsing Craigslist on his Macbook at a hip local coffeeshop. While Jonas isn't much of a social type, one barista, Ken, a middle-aged uncle-figure to his coworkers, manages to crack Jonas's shell -- with a disarming, older-brotherly manner, and a deep knowledge of the music scene and the world in general. Jonas knows that Ken is gay, but it doesn't matter, because they're friends and companions, and anyway, Jonas knows that he's straight.

Soon, however, Jonas and Ken start spending more time together, and becoming closer and closer. Jonas had been hiding something from Ken, but Ken accepts Jonas, drawing them into a warm, loving relationship, suffused with self-reflection, good music, and smoking the occasional joint -- not to mention a lot of great sex.
