The next morning, Lassiter woke up feeling bleary and miserable, as if something were missing. He didn't want to admit that he missed his dreams with Shawn, that he wanted to fall back asleep and go back to them. But it was the truth.

He realized what had woken him up in the first place. Someone was pounding at his door. Incredulous, he glanced over at the clock on his bedside table. 7 am? On a Saturday? He didn't even have to work today! There was no reason he couldn't fall back asleep. Scowling darkly, he swung his legs out of bed and dressed hurriedly.

The knocking got louder, more insistent.

"I'm coming!"

He swung open the door, his face dark with an anger that fell away into pure bewilderment.

"Shawn? Erm… What are you dong here, Spencer? It's seven am!"

Even thought he had managed to get past his surprise and bark at the man in his usual way, he could not help it that his eyes took in every bit of Shawn's rugged appearance, from his tussled hair and fever bright eyes to the worn but neon green runners on his feet.

Shawn didn't even bother to answer him. He just began to sing, his voice calm, gentle. His eyes, though bright and burning with passion, were also calm and certain. Unafraid.

"There is something that I see, In the way you look at me. There's a smile, there's a truth in your eyes. But an unexpected way, On this unexpected day. Could it mean this is where I belong? It is you I have loved all along…"

Lassiter stared back at him, his anger melting away, his eyes searching Shawn's. Wondering if this could possibly be happening.

Shawn continued, but Lassiter could see now that the other man wasn't completely fearless. He could see his pulse thrumming, his trembling lips.

"It's no more mystery, It is finally clear to me. You're the home my heart searched for so long. And it is you I have loved all along."

Lassiter reached up and placed his fingers over Shawn's lips. Inside his mind, he was calling himself crazy. But this felt too right. He sang back to Shawn.

"There were times I ran to hide, afraid to show the other side. Alone in the night without you. But now I know, just who you are, and I know you hold my heart Finally this is where I belong. It is you I have loved all along."

Shawn's eyes filled up with tears, and when they began to fall, Lassiter moved his fingers from his lips in order to wipe them gently away.

"It's no a more mystery & It is finally clear to me, You're the home my heart searched for so long And it is you I have loved all along. Over and over I'm filled with emotion, Your love, it rushes through my veins, And I am filled With the sweetest devotion, As I, I look into your perfect face."

Shawn smiled weakly, and sang back, "It's no more mystery, It is finally clear to me, You're the home my heart searched for so long. And it is you I have loved, It is you I have loved, It is you I have loved all along."

Shawn leaned forward and pressed his lips to Lassiter's. Instantly, fire shot though his veins as their lips met in a wave of heat and sweetness.

"I love you, Shawn." Lassiter whispered.

"I love you too, Carlton."
