He says he realizes now how much he misses Aaron but that he has to think of his unborn son and how his sexuality would affect the child’s life. They go back to the track the next day to read comic books together. When they go a third time, Thomas and Genevieve are already there together. Aaron is deeply hurt by this and runs away. Collin realizes that Aaron still likes Thomas and says it’s for the best that Thomas is straight.
