THIRTEEN
The idea had come to Brett out of nowhere, it seemed. Maybe it was the feeling of recklessness, the incredible sense of wellbeing, that had come just from sending that text. He had done something that he hadnât been sure that he could do, and he felt, for the moment, like he could do anything.
Even get John out of the house, because while John might think that Brett hadnât noticed, he definitely had. John left the house only to get groceries, but John was too young to be a shut-in.
The truth was, John had helped Brett to do what he knew was the best thing to do deep down, he had given Brett the kick in the ass that he needed to get started. So there seemed to him to be absolutely no reason that he couldnât do the same for his best friend, get him out into some fresh air.
Maybe even have some fun.
It had been years since Brett had done anything Christmas themed, years since heâd had time, and it had never seemed like there was any point in it, anyway. It was just him in the house, after all. But now, he had someone, and he might not be sure just what their relationship was, but he did know that he wanted to take care of John just as much as John, for some reason, wanted to take care of him.
Could it be that this was the miracle that he had been waiting for? Brett didnât know, but what he did know was that he had a date. With the man he loved. And he might just get his heart broken, but he was going to take the chance, for once. Already, what they had done was way more than he ever could have dreamed of.
Which lead to them bundling up, with John grumbling good-naturedly about how he was going to freeze his ass off, how they should be smart and stay inside, preferably in bed, for the whole day.
Not that that idea didnât appeal, because it definitely did. But it felt important to Brett that they do this, that they see if they were compatible not only in bed, which they clearly were.
Was he testing out a relationship? Was he that stupid? Yes, as it turned out, he supposed he was. And he couldnât stop smiling about it, which made him even more stupid. Only it didnât feel stupid, not when they walked into the park and John, as if by instinct, wrapped an arm around Brettâs waist.
âSo whatâs the deal with this, anyway?â John was grumpy, suspiciously so, as he looked around the park, which had been all decorated for the season. Strands of lights, both white and multicolored, were strung up all over, reflecting off of the crunchy layer of silvery snow which covered everything.
âThereâs a Christmas fair. I heard about it from a client, and I didnât think I would have time to check it out.â Brett gave John an adoring little smile.
