    Summary

    Ryan looks at the blown up photograph of Naim on a stand, a funeral book beneath it, the pages signed by people who didn’t know him.

    Ryan wants to take it and burn it. He wants to burn the whole fucking town down.

    The photograph is beautiful. In the soft, gentle way Naim was. He’s smiling in it. Eyes twinkling, teeth showing. Ryan’s fingers ache with the urge to reach out, to pull him through space and time, back into his arms.

    He’d never let him go.

    Summary

    “It scares me, a little,” Naim said suddenly, soft as a confession.

    Ryan frowned. Cigarettes forgotten, he shifted onto his side so he could look at Naim properly, but he didn’t speak. Not yet—he knew from the way Naim was frowning that he was trying to untangle the chaos in his brain.

    “Now that we’ve gotten this far, it makes me… Hope.”

    “... For more?”

    Naim couldn’t meet his eyes, but Ryan didn’t push it.

    “... Yeah.”

    He didn’t think he could handle it if he met Naim’s eyes right now, either.

     

    (A long conversation after sex, four years after the boys left that shithole of a town behind.)
