A/N: This idea randomly popped into my head after watching the episode when Kevin comes back. Hope you enjoy!!

I left Al's after the meeting. It was a pointless meeting anyways. Everyone was saying it was supposed to be about the whole Gay Film Festival crap, but it was hardly brought up at all.
I kept seeing Luke and his boyfriend (I never thought I'd use those words together in such a terrible way!) looking at me during the meeting, I guess expecting me to stand up and say something about it. I don't know what they were expecting me to say. I made it pretty obvious that I wasn't cool with the whole gay thing a few years ago, but Luke was never one to give up easily, even when we were growing up.
Jonathan stood up first when we had our own meeting the next day. Our campaign meetings that he insisted on having at least two or three times a week. I'm pretty sure he's more into this campaign than I am. I only ran so that we wouldn't get some stuck-up president who's idea of making the school better was buying new beakers for the science labs.
"First things first," he said, "There is a new competitor in the election, and he seems to already have a good backing behind him considering he's only entered this morning." He flipped through a few papers, "According to the most recent polling as of noon, he already has the votes of everyone that's involved with the Gay Film Festival, as well as the Gay Straight Alliance."
I just rolled my eyes at him, "So somebody doesn't like the idea of funding being cut for the film festival next year, what of it? Can this person really make a difference?"
He looked up at me, "Might be able to, we'll just have to see."
Shaking my head, I leaned across Jennifer to take one of the cookies set out on the table, "So what's the name of my new non-competition?"
I heard him riffling the papers a bit more, then say, "Luke Snyder."
I froze, my hand extended in front of me and the cookie clattered back to the plate. My mind was reeling. Snyder was running against me? He couldn't be. I knew he was determined, but this?
"Kevin?" I jerked back to reality at the sound of Jonathan's voice, and looked up to see him watching me with a curious expression, "You know him?" he asked warily, as though he were dreading the answer.
I just leaned back in my seat, the cookie forgotten, and closed my eyes, "Yeah, I know him," I started, then took a deep breath and continued, "He was my best friend in high school, and years before that. H-he was in love with me," I muttered the last part almost inaudibly, now glaring at the ground as if it had caused all my problems, "Haven't talked to him since graduation until last night at Al's."
Tearing my eyes from the floor, I looked up at Jonathan, who had a faint smile on his face and was staring at the opposite wall, deep in thought. Finally he looked back at me, "We can use this," he said simply, in a voice that sounded like poisonous venom dripped in honey so one couldn't resist it.
"How?" I asked cautiously, looking at him suspiciously.
His smile only widened, "That depends," he leaned towards me and our faces were only about five inches apart, "How far are you willing to go to win this election?"
