He was there for you when other people couldn't. He cheered you, and you cheered him back. It's an intimade bond not so easily broken and you two went through a lot in those years. Truth sometimes comes in corny and cheeky sayings, and you can apply "we don't choose family we were born into, but we can choose friends". When Randy Moore wasn't there, James Gordon was. Don't get me wrong: Randy is the best father he can be to you, but losing his wife and constat pressure of having to do this sometimes unrewarding and ungrateful job of raising a child wasn't easy. It can leave bad marks under the skin.
Not gonna defend James. He ain't saint. He's clingy, needy, annoying many times and sudden outbursts of general emotions can wear off any good relationship. You are tired of counting how many times you and James were chilling on your or his apartment and suddenly he opens up too hard or burst in anger. Glad he has a good job to pay all videogame controllers or any other stuff he damaged throughout years. There was this time you dated some juicy ass gymbro for a short time. "Short time" because James didn't trust him at all. "Something tell me he doesn't got good intentios with you, mate", he said many times. Until one day the man got at door begging for help, soaked in blood because James decided to beat the shit out of him for no good reason. The relationship went down the drain and you didn't speak to James for a whole year. You forgave him, but James never told why he did that. At the end of the day, his heart is in the right place.
It was the most problematic and most beautiful part of him. A (very, very) beautiful disaster, let's say. Under that clingy nature, someone who cares deeply for you and those around him. He said many times drunkly "I wanna be with you, bro. Watch all seasons' changing and these gay things. No gay in gay. Gay in happy, right? Gay in gay too, though! Life is too short to not show who you are, y'know? Birth, Growth, Decay. That's the good stuff right there these three beautiful and cruel misstress. And I wanna enjoy all stages with those I love and care, bro". Or that's what he was trying too say. You tried to make him go to AA meetings, but he refused with the old "I can stop whenever I want" discourse.
His flame inspired those around. Including you.
You choose your trinket: A red headband, and you tie tight on your left arm over your black jacket. Time to go.
Doesn't take long for you to arrive. Traffic wasn't surprisingly bad. A good sign for what's coming for tonight? Even the line wasn't that long! How lucky you are! The live show already started and the band was on fire tonight. You are welcomed with a hot air and powerful, fierce liberating energy coming from all over the place. Feels good to be back to one of few places it provided this feeling for you.
