They were finally moving! If he hadn't spent most of the last week packing and organizing his instruments for the move, he wouldn't have believed it was finally happening. But he'd spent most of the last week in a happy daze, practically dancing around as they finalized the placement of furniture and finished the last little details that needed fixing.
And now they were home! He grinned at Ronan and looked around the room with a sense of ownership and pride. "It's different," he said finally. "I mean, I lived alone for three years before moving into Garden Court but this is different. Good different."
He leaned up for the kiss, trailing his fingers over broad shoulders, before twining into the dreadlocks at the back of his neck. "What about you? Glad to be away from nosy flatmates and sticky children?" Ben liked Toby, and had great fun with him, but he couldn't deny it was tiring after awhile, and he was always glad to pass him off to Jamie or Allison.
