After work John and Randy drove to a nearby cafe. Randy played with his food. "So how's it going with you?"
John sighed "It's going good but you'll never guess who came over last night."
"Who?" Randy said smiling.
"Adam" John said sitting back.
"Really?" Randy said.
John nodded "Yeah his mother is sick so he came down to be with her until his brother comes over. He hasn't changed and he even thought that you and I were still together."
Randy's smile faded. "What did you tell him?"
John's smiled then slowly faded "I told him that you broke up with me a little while after he left." He took a sip out of his drink. "He was surprised." John said chuckling then sighed. "I'm sorry Randy I can't do this." He said setting down his drink.
"You can't do what?" Randy asked.
"Sit here and talk to you and pretend that I don't want to take your face in my hands and kiss you." John said.
Randy looked away from John. "John?"
"No, alright because I know that you don't love him like you love me." John reached out and took Randy's hand. "Randy when I met you back in high school you were the only guy I ever seen myself with and now that were here now I know we can-"
"No." Randy said. "I'm married now you have to respect that."
John leaned in closer to Randy. "Then why did you kiss me huh?"
Randy looked down. "I don't know."
John nodded "And why did we have sex if you don't care!" He cried out.
Randy got up. "I have to go."
John grabbed his arm. "Randy I know that we can make again if you would just try."
"I'm married John I can't do this with you." Randy cried out. "You have to move on."
John sat back "I've tried that but you see that just didn't work out. I love you and you love me. No matter who I'm with or who you're with we meant to be together."
"I have to go Paul should be home soon." Randy said getting up.
John got up and grabbed his arm. "Paul, let's talk about Paul who always seems to be working late these days. Have you ever thought that he's cheating on you?"
"What?" Randy said.
"The late nights it can't be work." John said.
"Pau; would never cheat on me. Now if you'll excuse me I have to go." Randy pulled out of his grip and walked out the restaurant.
John went after him. "Okay!" He yelled and grabbed Randy's arm. "Look I'm sorry for saying that but I can't help it. I've been in love with you since high school and I don't think my feelings are ever going away. I don't want them to and nether do you, just admit it."
Randy slowly turned to John. "You're right I never stopped loving you. I can't eat and I can't sleep because I'm constantly thinking about you. I can't get that night out of my head and I want to kiss you so bad right now. Is that what you want to hear? Me confessing my love to you because it's true I've been in love with you my whole life and even though I was miles away from you I never for one second stopped thinking." Randy looked down.
John reached out and took Randy's hand in his own. "I know how hard this is for you and I know that I'm asking for much but I been without you for five years and I don't want to be without you anymore." He used his hand to lift up Randy's head. "We're meant to be together Randy." He leaned down and kissed Randy on the head then the cheek and finally his lips.
Randy soon found his hands around John's neck pulling him closer. He felt so much fire and passion whenever he was with John and it drove him crazy. He always loved how John made him feel and he loved that no matter what John would never give up on him. He pulled back and looked up at John. He slowly backed away from him and walked over to his car. He opened the door and got in. With one more look out his window at John he drove off.
John watched him go then went back inside.
Six fifty that night
Randy pulled up into his driveway and sat there. He had made up his mind. He was going to leave Paul to be with John. Even though he loved Paul with all his heart, John was his soul mate and his only soul mate. He opened the garage door and was surprised to see Paul's car there. What is he doing here so early? He thought as he got out the car and made his way to the front door. He paused at the door before sliding in his key and opening the door. When he opened the door he was met with the scent of lavender. The room was dark all but candles lit up the front room bright enough for Randy to see Paul standing a few feet in front of him holding a flower. He closed the door and stepped into the room. "What's going on?"
Paul walked up to Randy. "Don't you know what today is?" Randy shook his head and Paul sighed. "Today is our five year anniversary."
Randy's mouth opened. "Oh Paul I'm so sorry I forgot."
Paul chuckled "its okay I know you've been distracted with work, your family and...Yeah."
Randy looked down already knowing who he meant by Yeah. "Paul."
"That's why I've been out so late lately. I have been going crazy about you anniversary gift and I wanted everything to be perfect." Paul said.
Randy was at a loss of words but a part of him was happy that Paul wasn't cheating on him and that made him smile. "I can't believe you did all this for me."
Paul walked closer to Randy and held out the rose. "You're worth everything and so much more."
Randy took the rose from Paul. "I don't know what to say."
Paul smiled "Well maybe you can eat then." He took Randy's hand and led him into the dining room.
When Randy saw the dinner table a huge smiled spread on his face. "You cooked but I thought you never cooked."
"Only on special occasions." He pulled of Randy's jacket and pulled out his chair.
Randy sat down and admired the setting around him, John completely out of him mind.
John's been driving around for hours trying to get Randy out of his mind. It was almost seven thirty when he got to his apartment complex. He pulled in the parking lot but stopped when he saw Ted's car parked right next to the spot he always parks at. He really didn't want to go up to his apartment to see Ted, knowing that he would be there so he pulled back out and drove to Adam's mother's house.
Ten minutes later
John was standing at Adam's mother's front door. He reached out and rang the doorbell.
Adam answered a few seconds later. "John what are you doing here?"
"I went out to eat with Randy and tried to keep it professional but I ended up spilling my heart out to him and he did the same. Then I ended up kissing him, he kissed me back and it was amazing but then he left. I went home awhile later but I was scared that Ted was going to be there so I came here." John stopped finally taking a breath.
Adam chuckled "Um...okay why don't you come in and we can talk more.
When they were finish eating Randy found himself in Paul's arms as they swayed to the soft music that was playing. "Tonight was really wonderful Paul."
Paul leaned back. "And it's not over yet." He stepped back and took one of Randy's hands. "Okay, we've been together for five years now and I can honestly say that they have been the best days of my life. I love you and I want to spend the rest of my life with you." He got down on one knee. "So I want to ask you something."
Randy stopped breathing as he looked down at Paul.
"Randy will you marry me again?" Paul asked smiling.
"Why can't I get him out of my head?" John asked. He was sitting on Adam's couch with his head back and his eyes closed. "God I want him so bad and I don't see what's so great about Paul. I've seen him and he's not even that cute. I mean what does Randy see in him?"
"What does he see in you?" Adam asked chuckling.
John sat up and looked at Adam. He smiled "The way he kissed me back was like he wanted to be with me as much as I wanted to be with him. I know and he knows it but why won't he accept it." He sighed "I'm not giving up though. Tomorrow I'm going to talk to him again and this time I'm not holding anything back. I'm going to get him back, you'll see." John told himself. "You'll see."
