The 37 Days of Gusmas Title: First snow Author: Xie Prompt: First snow
Justin felt Brian lying against his back. There was just enough light that he could see snow falling outside their bedroom window, sugaring down onto the bare branches of the trees.
"The first snow," he murmured to Brian, then drifted back to sleep.
Then he woke up. He lay there for a long time, his eyes closed, but the dream was gone.
The floor felt cold as he walked to the window. There was a tree between his apartment building and the one next door; its leafless branches traced dark lines against the other building's brick wall.
