Title: Let Me In
Author: BipolarMolar
Rating: M. Don't like… don't read. Reviews give authors as sense of euphoria. Just so you know. Cough, Review, cough. Excuse me, I have a cold.

Summary: Sequel to Let It Out. It's not necessary to read Let It Out first. Might help though. Brendan still feels unsure due to the turmoil of Joel's attack, but he knows he has to see Walker.
Actually, Joel recovered well. The one bright point of certainty in the grayscale of Brendan's life (which had been shaken ever since that kiss-) was that Joel was fine. He'd avoided a prison sentence, his wounds would heal, hell, he may even prove to be a good partner. Couldn't tell Cheryl of course, Brendan mused, lifting his favourite chess piece up to his eyes. In a dark suit, he was silhouetted against the harsh green lights behind the bottles at the bar. Alone, in Chez Chez.
It felt strange to know that wherever Walker was, he didn't have Brendan's chess set with him.#
Drumming the rook on the bar, in a tuneless tattoo, his mind flipped back to his last look at Walker. That kiss. That kiss. Walker's eyes, resigned. His hair, that jaw. Lips.
His hand became sore as his grip tightened on the little castle. He needed to see him. Explain himself.

Author's notes: Very short chapter, I know, but other chapters will be lengthier, with slash at the end, hopefully.
