Michael was taking pictures of ‘Naked Men with Hats’ to show them to our friends at home. “Aurel won’t believe it until he sees the proof,” he snickered. “Next time he’s going to ask his mirror who’s the fairest of them all, and it will answer: ‘Famed is thy beauty, my friend. But hold, a lovely lad I see. Hats cannot hide his luscious grace. Alas, he is more fair than thee.’” By now we were shaking with laughter and had to hold onto each other to stop falling over.
Going with the theme, I stra
“Snow? Again? How much more are they expecting?” Roman watched a group of people who had just come in, brushing snowflakes from their coats.
“Now he’s talking about the weather.” He heard a very un-ladylike snort from his left side. “Maybe we should get you away from watching your piano man flirt with the little brunette who’s just peeling herself effectually out of her too small jacket to show off her too generous cleavage?” Mason whispered in his ear.
“What are you talking about?” He knew it
I'm torn between speculating that Michael wants to show Kendall what (who) he's missing at all 'their' places, being this super considerate. Probably not even consciously, but still... Or he wants the distance, so that he can figure out what Kendall means to him beside being his best friend. But I guess if I could ask Michael, he would say he did it to make it easier for Kendall, because he loves him and he will always be his best friend.
I don't think Ren can look in a mirror right now. We now know, he is fully aware of what he did. I still think, he is not where he needs to be.Thank you, avidreader for your comment.
I guess there are things you don't tell over the phone, at least not Jonah. I guess it was a good thing that Michael was actually there to support him. That wouldn't have been possible over the phone. And I'm glad you have still faith in me, to somehow clean up the mess I made. lolThanks, Gary.
You're right, dughlas. This is one of those situations where everyone knows what to do, but still doesn't do it for various reasons. And yes, people are going to get hurt. What have I done? Thanks, Dugh.
Chris called? Why would Chris call? All we had done so far was exchange a few emails, nothing else. I hadn’t really wanted to hear anything that reminded me of home, not even Chris’s or Michael’s voice and he knew me well enough as not to bat an eyelash. I would come around eventually. Maybe that was it. He thought it was taking me long enough.
Maybe Ren had… Yeah, right, and why do I even care?
Before I got myself anymore in a tizzy of ‘what ifs’ and ‘maybes’, I grabbed my phone and pressed s
Okay, this may sound stupid, but I'm glad Michael left. This needs time. Time to sound out their feeling, what not seeing each other daily means for them, what other possibilities they have, what the consequences of certain decisions would mean etc.
It's a good chapter, Gary. It showed how deeply they feel for each other, they did talk but they didn't rush things. And now I'm curious about the next one.
I'm glad you could appreciate the romance even though it got messier. But Gary think I'll clean up afterwards...let's see if he is right.Thanks for your comment, dughlas.
