Gerhard’s Reviews > Pierre & Bill: A Love Story > Status Update

He liked kids well enough but not enough to want to own one. For Bill, they were more along the lines of puppies or kittens. Cute, endearing, and someone else’s responsibility.

'Your children, ladies and gentlemen. Your families.' Removing his giant specs, he pinched the bridge of his nose with his thumb and forefinger in a futile attempt to contain his emotions.
'Giving Meryl a run for her money,' Bill muttered, again with no reaction from Liam.

“Pierre and Bill and Liam and Danny,” he said to the empty basement. “If three’s a crowd, what’s four?”

“It’s the new me!” Bill roared back. “Get used to it! I’m going to make Nurse Ratched look like Florence fucking Nightingale!”

“My crazy math teacher,” he murmured. ​
“I told you,” Liam quipped. “We go where no man has gone before.” ​
Feeling his butt, Bill cocked a crooked grin. “So was that Captain Kirk up my ass?” ​

He closed one eye in an exaggerated wink. “Apple pie,” he said lasciviously, making it sound like something he’d bought on the dark web.

“Oh, Bill!” Liam exclaimed. “You’ve never been to a math teachers’ convention! We’re all crazy! Mathematics has no limits! It goes anywhere! And so do we.”
