100% Reason to Remember the Name.
Gilbert loved him for so many reasons. Matthew Williams. The beautiful Canadian with the violet eyes and glasses that slipped down his nose. Pale blonde hair, curly and unruly. Perfect.
He loved watching Matthew watch hockey. He got so into it, jumping off the couch and waving his arms. Yelling in French at the television.
He loved the way his language slipped when he got tired. Sliding into French as his eyes grew half lidded and his head lolled.
He loved how shy he was. Hiding behind Gil when people came around. Shaking slightly and holding his hand. He would stammer out words.
He loved how he reacted to snow. Running out with his arms out and spinning. Falling back and making snow angels. The flakes catching on his lashes. The fallen snow would reflect on his eyes and they seemed to glow.
Gilbert loved him so much. It hurt some times. His heart felt like it was going to explode. Especially now. With his 'Birdie' leaning against him as some fluffy movie played on the screen. Gil smiled widely.
"Eh? Why ya smiling Gilly?" His nickname was another reason he loved him.
"Thinking about how much I love you." Gil answered easily.
Matthew blushed and Gil captured those sunkissed lips with his own.
All and all, he had 100% reason to remember his name, even if no one else did.
