Like Loving The Wind

Loving Julian Larson, was like loving the wind.

There was no one else in the world quite like him, Logan Wright thinks to himself as he lays down, allowing his body to sink into the soft grass beneath him as he watches his lover sitting underneath the tree, looking up curiously at a nest of birds.

"Julian, you're gonna scare them away."

"Lo! They're adorable! I have to get a closer look!" And with that said, Julian was just gone. By the time Logan Wright even thought of looking for his boyfriend, Julian was already halfway up the tree, extending fair hands towards the nest.

"JULIAN LARSON! GET YOUR ARSE BACK DOWN ON THE GROUND!" Logan springs to his feet, immediately racing towards his boyfriend, and not a moment too soon. Logan watches, horrified as Julian's leg slips and he comes falling down towards the ground.

Julian lands with a soft, indignant "oof".

"Oh god… Jules, are you alright? Do you hurt anywhere? Did you bang your head?"

Julian's eyelids fluttered, projecting a soft shadow on prominent cheekbones as dark hazel eyes were revealed, along with a Cheshire cat grin. "They were adorable," he tells Logan just as Logan lets out a growl and tackles Julian.

For a moment, all Logan can see is green, green grass, hazel eyes, dark curls and Julian.

Then, he's kissing Julian in a way that is both familiar and alien to them. The kiss is soft and gentle, unlike all their previous kisses. Kissing Julian had always been like kissing fire, a ball of need and hot lust. But now, as they lay on the grass together, entwined to a point where Logan doesn't know where he ends and Julian begins, their kisses are soft and unbearably romantic, with a ring… a promise in them… a promise of forever.

"I love you." The words are a quiet whisper, and for a moment Logan isn't sure who uttered them, until he sees the tears in Julian's eyes and he knows. He just knows.

This is going to be the man for him. For the rest of his life.

He will never love anyone more than Julian Larson.

Like loving the wind, Logan thinks as he presses one more, endless kiss to Julian's lips… hoping… that this one will last forever.
