Chapter 8

ROBERT cracked his eyes open, looking over at the empty space next to him, patting the pillow before looking over at the clock and closing his eyes. Snapping them open again, Robert looked one more time before throwing back the covers and jumping out of bed. Nine thirty, it was already nine thirty, and he was supposed to pick up Sebastian at ten. His mother always did the Thanksgiving meal at noon, and heaven help anyone who was late. Hurrying, Robert shaved while the shower warmed before jumping under the water to get cleaned up and wash his hair. No leisurely day-off shower this morning. Turning off the water, he dried himself quickly before rushing into the bedroom, shivering as the places he’d missed with the towel became abundantly clear. Pulling on his clothes, he did a quick check in the mirror, bending down to see himself properly, before pulling on his socks and shoes. Robert checked the clock once again: ten minutes till ten. Thankfully, Sebastian’s wasn’t far away. Walking down the stairs, he grabbed his coat and did a quick walk through the house.

Stepping outside, he shivered as he pulled his coat around him before bending down to pick up the paper in the plastic wrapper on his walk. Throwing it just inside the door, Robert locked the house before hurrying to his car. Starting it, he pressed the buttons to turn on the heated seats, and pulled onto the road.

He pulled up at Sebastian’s almost exactly on time. As Robert got out of the car, the front door opened to a very nervous-looking Sebastian. “Morning,” Robert said as he stepped inside, giving his lover a quick kiss that to his surprise didn’t turn into more. “What’s wrong?”

“I’m just nervous about meeting your mother,” Sebastian told him. Movement on the stairs caught his attention, and Robert looked away from Sebastian to see Gregory slowly making his way down.

“When did you get out of the hospital?” Robert asked with a smile, alternately looking at Gregory and then Sebastian.

“I brought him home last night.”

“Do you want to go with us? I know my mom will have enough food for an army, and you’d be welcome.” Robert began fishing out his phone so he could call her.

“No, thank you, Robert. I’m still pretty tired, and Sebastian’s made a small lunch for me. I just came down to see you and thank you for the phone calls and visits while I was in the hospital.” Gregory’s sigh ended in a slight cough. “Don’t worry, I was just clearing my throat,” he said to Sebastian in reaction to his mother-hen look. “It meant a lot,” Gregory told Robert. “You both mean a lot,” he added before beginning to shiver.

“Are you sure you don’t want me to stay?” Sebastian asked.

“I’m fine. I’ll probably sleep much of the day, anyway. You two have a good time, and I’ll see you when you get back.” Gregory reached into the pocket of his robe. “I have my phone, so if I need anything, I’ll call you, I promise.
