“No fucking way. Leo?” Ace’s voice is beautiful as ever as his name sends a tingle up Leo’s spine. He turns, half expecting it to be someone else, but standing behind a desk in black leather short shorts, his chest covered in red Shibari ropes covering a light blue formal shirt that’s been unbuttoned to show his hairless chest and toned abs, is the college brat of Leo’s dreams. The ropes crisscross and knot all over Ace in a beautifully intricate pattern that goes between his legs and caresses e

Succeeding in a career he never saw coming, college dropout Ace, has proven he truly doesn't need a man. Especially since every other man failed to fulfill him the way his college bully did. Ace didn't just leave college five years ago - he left the country. So how could Leo be here now? Leo's only committed relationship has been to a popstar who's broken his fantasy, getting engaged right in front of him. But it’s fine… Leo’s happily ever after has been reserved for the one who got away back in college, anyway. Ace in Shibari has to be a sign from the universe it's time they tied up the loose ends of their situationship, right?

Jasper feels very different as he sits at the piano to play the song that’d been the spectacle of most of their shows. The audience is silent, phone lights used and moved side to side as he sings and plays the song he’s been unable to get through without his loneliness getting the better of him. As he nears the end of the song, the part that’s been the breaking point for his tears, Jasper pauses for dramatic effect, giving a deep breath before singing with just as much emotion as every other sho

“Ry!” Jasper shouts, so surprised to see Ryan that he’s practically shaking and unable to move. He wants to get out of the bath. He wants to throw himself at Ryan. But he’s immobilized with shock. Ryan’s here. He’s finally here. “Surprise.” Ryan smiles and places his phone down on the counter. With no hesitation or care in the world for the fact he’s still dressed, Ryan climbs in the bath with Jasper and wraps his arms around him, hugging him tight. “I’m so sorry it’s taken me so long.

“Please welcome The Obsolete!” an interviewer greets the band on the final day of their Australian tour. “Thank you for having us. It’s our first time touring here, and it’s been incredible,” Simon grins. “This is a question for Jasper. In a couple of your recent performances, you’ve been very emotional while performing songs that are we all know hold a lot of meaning to you and Ryan.” As the interviewer speaks, a video of Jasper tearfully singing about waking up beside Ryan and feelin

“Jasper, are you okay? You seemed really sad last night.” Blake sits nervously beside Jasper on the bed, wringing his hands anxiously. “I was really sad, but I’ll be okay when I break up with Ryan. I just realized I am not in love with him anymore.” Jasper rolls over, staring deep into Blake’s gorgeous eyes. “Really? In that case I have something important to tell you.” Blake blushes, unable to hold Jasper’s stare. “You’re in love with me, aren’t you? You have been this whole time

Blake leads the way through a crowd, beaming with energy. They hadn’t been invited to many parties like this during tour because their schedules have been so packed, but they’d made plans for a week off while in Australia and it couldn’t come at a better time. Jasper has been struggling to perform. They all have been, but Blake has been talking him out of drinking before shows most nights. The tour has taken it out of him. The last place Jasper really wants to be, even though he knows he sh

The shows started to blur together and the excitement of the travel wanes over the weeks that followed seeing Chicago. Ryan hadn’t managed to meet up with Jasper yet, due to an overbooked schedule. Jasper is taking every stupid thing the band is doing between shows that fills their free time as a personal attack on his relationship now. He’s sick of smiling and laughing in interviews, and why they are doing a photo shoot now in the tour makes no sense. He’s complained to Leo about their sch

Opening night for Chicago happens mid tour, and the moment Jasper receives a front row ticket he assumes is from Ryan, he makes it Leo’s job to get him there for it. So, while the rest of the band heads to their next show destination, Leo accompanies Jasper home. He expected to be sitting with Ryan. As it is, he’s not all that interested in the show. But as the orchestra warms up and the house lights go down, Jasper settles into the disappointment of having an empty seat by his side. W

“Well done today, everyone. Remember, we’re starting dress rehearsals next week, so consider your costumes before deciding what to eat over the weekend,” Maria calls as the cast leave the stage. The full run-through had been almost perfect, and Ryan can’t help lamenting that the feedback wasn’t more positive. On his way backstage, he offers some kind words to as many people as he can. “It’s my wedding anniversary tonight, and I’m pretty sure my wife will divorce me if I don’t eat whatever s

“What a sight,” Jasper sighs as he walks into the bedroom and sits on the bed, enjoying the free show of Ryan shirtless, doing push-ups on the floor. Ryan smiles, but he doesn’t speak. Jasper groans, sips his water then gives a resigned sigh. “This is torture.” Jasper gets off the bed and moves closer to Ryan, who manages a grunted, “don’t.” “I tried. I genuinely tried to resist but your arms are taunting me, and I can’t not lick your biceps,” Jasper says, poking his tongue o

With every planned show on their tour selling out, more shows keep being added to meet demand. The Obsolete cannot believe the phenomenal support from their fans after their dramatic hiatus, not to mention the shit first album they’d released under Chris’s label. Despite the hype surrounding their comeback, The Obsolete have never felt less pressure in the lead up to an event. In fact, immediately after Blake’s party, Simon left for France to see his wife, while Luke and Fi have been preoccupied

Jasper holds Ryan’s hand as they navigate through the crowd of people between the fence and the doorstep of the extravagant mini mansion. “Only Blake would drop a new album in the middle of a house party. We don’t have to stay too long if you don’t want to, and don’t let me get too drunk. I am gonna have a drink, maybe two, but drag me out of here if I go for more than that. Promise me,” Jasper yells over the blaring music greeting them the moment he opens the front door of his best friend’

“Stop! Stop. Ryan, what do you think of that performance?” Maria turns to Ryan with her arms folded across her chest. She was not kidding about rehearsals getting serious in the new year. They were a week into January, first rehearsal back, and it’s been nothing but pressure since they walked in the door. Ryan looks across the group of dancers, all catching their breath while trying to appear ready to keep going. “I know it’s been a long day, and energy is waning, but that performance was l

“Why are you so tired? What’ve you been up to?” Blake asks with a smirk. “Wouldn’t you like to know?” Jasper winks back. “Ryan woke me up at four and took me on a rainy sunrise date. You have a few hours before I turn into a demon from tiredness,” Jasper warns as he walks over to Blake, looking down at the floor in thought. “Sunrise date? That’s so cheesy and on brand for him.” Blake rolls his eyes with a smile. “Mm, I thought he might’ve been going to propose, to be honest.” Jasp

“That’s not fair. That’s cheating,” Jasper says in a whisper as he walks into his lounge room to find Ryan lying shirtless on the couch with their baby niece fast asleep on his chest. It’s been a week since he announced he was leaving the band, though he’s yet to follow that up with an official statement and it’s driving everyone insane with speculations. “Shh.” Ryan pats Ellie’s back. “Can you imagine coming home from work as an international, iconic pop star, to me as a stay-at-home

After a tiring day being sucked up to by everyone hoping for a spotlight position in Chicago, Ryan sets off to the studio. Jasper had organized for Blake to drop him home after work while Ryan’s at rehearsals, but today he’d sent Ryan a message to let him know he’d be late as he’s planning a music video with Mark. With any luck, it’ll be a long meeting, because Ryan has something important to plan himself. “Hey, dude, your boyfriend is in a meeting,” Blake says, disconnecting and packing up
-
“Ryan, welcome. How are you feeling?” “I’m excited.” Ryan’s panicking on the inside but he’s thrilled to be here, standing on a Broadway stage, regardless. Considering his intention to disappear into the shadows of fame, he’d rejected the position offered to him, and somehow ended up being invited to shadow the choreographer, a mid-thirties black woman named Maria. “Today we’ll be doing a run through, getting to know each other and then outlining our rehearsal schedule. We’ll get more

“Blake’s new music video seems like an attack or even a threat against the media. What do you have to say about that?” It takes a brave reporter to question the band now, with legal consequences being pursued against the journalist that’d tracked down Damien. There are only a handful of people in the room with notepads, cameras, and the balls to interview the band. “We’re just doing our jobs. Don’t take it personally.” Jasper offers a very obvious hint at the media’s pathetic defense o

“You’re quitting?” Simon asks, staying still as Fi works her stylist magic with the thrown together outfit she’d picked out for him. “Leaving the group is what’s best for us all. I’m not the right person for this career and you guys never needed an extra member in the band. I don’t add anything to the group,” Ryan explains, buttoning his own jacket. Luke and Simon don’t seem all that surprised, which alleviates some of the guilt Ryan has been feeling about stuffing the band around.

“Welcome back.” Jasper greets Blake at the front door, letting him in. “Why the hell did Ryan go to Demion’s?” Blake snaps with a tone of disapproval as he walks in, passing Jasper a brownie. Jasper’s shoulders sink. “Dude, he just stood up to his ex. If that were me, you’d be telling me I’m badass. Can we talk about why you hate everything my boyfriend does, please? Because I’m pretty sure I told you to be nice and instead, you’re being super judgy and—” “You asked me to be judgy

“Ryan, thank you so much for coming over to help me out with this. I swear I didn’t know I was being ambushed by media.” Damien stresses the moment he sees Ryan. Though he’s never seen Damien like this, Ryan shows no interest. He walks in, ignoring the flashes of cameras behind him that have already captured every moment since the car pulled up out the front, right up to the second Damien closes the door. “Full disclosure, I’m not here to ‘help you out.’ I’m here to sort out the part of thi

“You’ve still got his number, haven’t you?” Jasper turns to Ryan, who looks like all the air and blood has been snatched from his body in an instant at the sight of his ex, who is yet to say a word. “Ryan, tell me you are not still in contact with him,” Jules asks, her best stern parenting tone unleashed. She isn’t taking her eyes off the screen either, and if looks could kill, Damien would no longer be a problem. “I blocked him,” Ryan says, drawing in a shaky breath as he pulls his ph

“It’s clear you need to leave.” Ryan orders, trying to remain polite despite the tension in the room. “Disgraceful,” John scoffs. Absolute disgust rises in Ryan cracking a splinter in his composure. “You know if I was a parent that treated my kids the way you treat yours, it’s not them I’d be ashamed of. Now, do I need to ask you to leave again? There’s nothing for you here,” Ryan states with more determination. “I will not be spoken to like this by a man who has taken advantage o

“Mom?” Ryan looks shocked when they arrive back at their apartment the following morning and find Jules in the living room folding baby clothes. He turns to Jasper, lowering his voice. “I swear I didn’t invite her or even suggest she come over while your parents are here.” Jasper isn’t at all worried; in fact, he’s relieved to have a parent in the house who smiles at him. “Your mom is always welcome at our place. You don’t need to fold the laundry, though.” Jasper greets Jules with a hug.
