Bear Chasing

Neil has a crush on the big guy across the road. But someone so masculine wouldn’t be gay, would they? And even if they were, they wouldn’t be interested in someone like Neil. The guy across the road could only be described as a bear, and Neil? Well, he’s skinny, awkward and shy. But what on earth was this "Woof!" business?
