Who: James Shepherd and Zach Evans When: Wednesday the 4th,afternoonish Where: James' home in Virginia What: Satisfying curiosity Rating: PG for language?
Zach had agreed to come to James, which was nice and very thoughtful, but also meant that some house cleaning was in order. Having not been home for three weeks and then returning home in not perfect shape meant things were a little less than neat. Fortunately, he had a couple of days and a housecleaning service, so by Wednesday afternoon things were acceptable. He'd even managed a run to the store for some beer, just in case.
James got out of the shower and decided it was time to try something other than pajamas and track pants. He had an older pair of jeans that was a bit loose, which he found he could wear without them digging into his incision. Slacks would have worked as well, but he was really going for less formal. He did however spent an inordinate amount of time fussing over his hair which was longer than he liked it, but he hadn't had time to go get it trimmed.
Are you always this fussy?
'No Joseph, I'm not. There's just. I. There's something about this guy. I don't know. I mean he's hot, definitely hot, but. I don't know.'
You like him.
'Yes. I like him. Happy?'
Just clarifying.
James finished primping and was rearranging the magazines on the coffee table for the third time when the doorbell rang. He walked over and opened it, smiling. "Zach...come in."
