Challenge #136: Emmett
Title: Almost Gone With the Wind
Author's Note: As always a tremendous thank you to suze_y for beta'ing this for me, especially at the last minute!
And the condom goes to: Blake

Checking his ass in the mirror, Emmett reached into his closet for the bit of red that attracted his eye. Caught unaware, he gasped softly at what he withdrew; not his sexy mesh shirt, but George's soft red sweater.

He hadn't touched it in months, hadn't worn it in years, had moved on, as George would have wanted.

Still, thoughts of dancing, drinking and strangers paled next to this reminder of days and nights filled with effortless joy and love.

"Don't worry, Georgie," Emmett whispered as he pulled it on; loving arms surrounding him once again. "I'll go out tomorrow."
