I don't own anything.
I loved Dylan and Lofty's friendship, so this is just a little scene I've had in my head.
Dylan and Lofty sat on a bench, outside of the hospital. They were drinking coffee, and having a quick catch up.
"Sorry about Sam", Lofty said, quietly. "We met a few times. She was..."
"My ex wife, who cheated on me when we were married, with Iain. The paramedic she worked with", Dylan reminded Lofty, quickly. "But I wish that I wasn't so short with her".
Lofty grinned, "Dylan Keogh being short? Never", he teased. "You are always so sunny and cheerful".
Dylan looked at him. "I heard that you were getting married. To a man?", he asked. "That was a, surprise".
Lofty nodded, "To me, too", he admitted. "I didn't realize my sexuality, not truly, until I left..."
"You dont need to explain anything to me", Dylan told his friend. "I am just glad that you are happy".
"I'm not happy that you are drinking again", Lofty told him.
"I'm in recovery".
"And in love? "
Dylan took a drink of his coffee." Yes. Ciara", he smiled. "We were going to have a baby".
Lofty smiled at him. "I never thought that I'd see the day that you'd fall in love and settle down".
"You don't know Ciara", Dylan replied. "She is an amazing woman". "Dom is an amazing man", Lofty told his friend. "I'm a lucky man".
Dylan looked at Lofty. "I think we are both lucky men".
