Business was slow like always and Ste had a lot of time to think though what had happened the last few days. "would you have taken a bullet for me? I just need to hear you say it" "yes" the words kept relying in his mind... What was happening, a few months ago he had played Brendan so he would get out of his life but now? Now Brendan wanted Ste out of his life? But why? Ste always knew Brendan wasn't good for him but that never stopped him in the past. He sighed as the door rang. He looked over to see... To see someone he hadn't for awhile.
His blue eyes lit the room up as he entered the deli, his hair falling perfectly into place Ste couldn't remember the last time they had been in a room together... 3 years maybe even 4? He sighed looking him up and down happy to see he was wearing very tightly fitted clothes. "hey they" he said ste suddenly looked up noticing that he didn't even remember him. The look on his face gave it away. "hey what can I get you?" Ste said still puzzled in why he didn't remember him, Ste looked no different apart from his shaggie hair was gone and replaced. " just a coffee please in a bit of a hurry haven't even said hello to anyone yet" he nodded walking over to the coffee maker purring him a coffee. " yeah last I heard was you was in Dublin with lover boy.. That right John Paul?" he looked up complely shocked in how he knew about it and how he even knew his name?.. He started blankly at Ste until after minutes he remembered who he was "Ste...? Wow is that... Really you?" Ste blushed softly as he saw his eyes wonder around his body.

They sat for a hour talking none stop about what had happened since he had left for Dublin about the deli and about how John paul and craig was on a break for awhile but there was one thing ste hasn't told him "erm yeah I'm also... Gay" he looked up smiling "hey nothing to be afraid of remember I am too?" he laughed ste smiled as he watched his face light up with laughter. "so you got a man I'm guessing?" ste sighed as he went on talking about Brendan and then doug.. About not knowing what was happening. Ste looked up at the clock seeing that it was coming up to twelve which meant rush hour he got up smiling " how about we catch up later?" John Paul joined Ste running his hand softly up his cheek "that would be great" he grabbed his bag leaving Ste stood there speechless.
