Their cover story is — fine. Visiting from out of town; Bill is Holden’s partner — Jim is Alan’s partner. Romantic partner. Doesn’t like the scene, but he trusts Alan enough to let him go out to the bars and live it up on his own. It’s all … true enough, or close to true, as long as no one looks too closely at the word partner.
(Alan wouldn’t cheat on Jim, he tells himself, because that’s easier to think about than Holden wouldn’t have sex with a man.)
