Haven Falls #138 - Sharing

Carter (Gil) Gillespie and Miles Sutherland

_________________________________________

Gil sat nursing a coffee in the cafeteria on his break, having carefully avoided the pastries this time. Far too much sugar. He was reading some of the information the local real estate agent had sent him, trying to decide if any of the properties were worth his time to visit. There was only one in Camden Hills, a nice looking place but it was a proper house, not an apartment. Gil wondered what Miles would think. He might ask him if he knew where it was.

Miles wound his way around the tables, clutching his salad roll in one hand. He’d never get used to calling them a sub. Maybe if he lived in the States another few years. He spotted Gil sitting by himself at the table. Should he join him? It would seem strange if he didn’t. They were work colleagues after all. “Hospital food not your cup of tea, mate?” He pulled out a chair and eased himself into it. The sit-ups he’d started doing each morning were making his stomach feel like he’d been run over by a car.

Gil glanced up and smiled. “Morning. Not really feeling like much right now.” He threw the papers onto the table and sighed. “Do you have a clue where this is?” He pushed the paper across the table toward Miles.

Miles picked up the glossy realtor and glanced at the house. He’d noticed the sign out front while walking Roofie earlier. “Yeah, it’s in the street next to mine in Camden Hills. You still looking for a place to stay?” Shit, the thought of having Gil living so close was a bit unsettling. He gave himself a mental kick up the arse. Who was he kidding? He’d nearly suggested he sublet one of the spare rooms at his place the other day.

Gil nodded. “I need a bigger place, just not sure if that’s too big. I want somewhere my folks could stay if they come over. A one bed apartment isn’t really enough. I’d like a kitchen I can cook in without tucking my elbows in and a proper bath. All I have right now is a shower room and I feel like I’m trying get clean in a shoe box. I tell you, I am getting claustrophobia.”

While Gil spoke, waving his hands around as he usually did, Miles tried to squash images of him being pressed up against the wall in his own shower, not having any room to move but for an entirely different reason. Down boy! He was as bad as Roofie. Maybe he needed to go to Obedience School too... one designed to control impure thoughts about young paramedics and what he’d like to do to them. Maybe it was just as well he hadn’t opened his big mouth and suggested he share the huge house with him. “Will you be able to afford something that big?”

“I have no idea. I’ll have to look at the figures tonight.
