I'm lucky that I haven't had to come face to face with death in my life. None of my close family members have died,, nor have any of my friends. The closest I got to death was when I was with my best friends when he got the news that his mom died.

My friend Jerry and I were at his house watching a movie in the basement. It was a comedy movie that we had seen several times before, but we still laughed and repeated our favorite scenes. It wasn't that exciting of a way to spend the night, but we were perfectly happy to just relax. During one of the funnier scenes in the movie, my friend's dad walked down the stairs slowly and loudly. I muted the TV with the remote next to me, and then I immediately noticed the sad look on Jerry's dad's face. Whatever was coming had obviously hit him hard. That's when he told us, slowly and with occasional, random pauses, that his wife had just died in a car accident. Looking back on the situation, I'm surprised I wasn't told to leave Jerry's house so they could be alone, but I guess his dad thought that he could use some company to help him cope.

After that, his dad said that he had to go take care of some things with the police and then left me and Jerry in the basement. There was a short silence before I turned to Jerry and asked if he wanted me to leave. He didn't respond, but instead turned towards me, leaned in, and kissed me. A full-on, guy on guy kiss. To say the least, that wasn't what I was expecting. Afterwards, Jerry never said a word about it, and we just went back to watching the movie. Neither of us laughed at any of the parts that we were supposed to. I just felt sadness for my best friend because of what he was going through along with confusion as to what he had just done.

tl;dr Was with my friend when he found out his mom died, and then he kissed me out of nowhere. Yes, we are both guys.
