Jack walks out of the house. He has a hold on Ennis's coat sleeve pulling him along until they stop in front of the truck.

"Get in," Jack demands.

"Why? Where are you gonna take me, huh?" Ennis asks.

"What, you don't trust me?" Jack says.

"It's not like that. Geez, I just wanna know what's going on," answers Ennis.

"Well, you're gonna find out - I just want it to be a surprise," answers Jack.

Ennis gives Jack a questionable look and starts walking back to the house.

"Where are you going?" Jack calls out.

"If we're going somewhere we don't need to leave the house unlocked," Ennis says while locking the front door.

"Smart ass," Jack whispers under his breath. Ennis walks back over to the truck and opens the passenger side door with Jack standing there to make sure that Ennis is really going with him. Ennis steps up to Jack.

"Are we going or are you gonna stand there till the sun goes down?"

Ennis answers in an aggravated tone though he is really interested in finding out just what Jack is talking about and is so eager to show him, but he doesn't want Jack to know that. He finds all this to be a little silly; two grown men shouldn't be acting like two foolish boys going off to find some dead animal or something of that nature, whatever boys like to do Ennis doesn't rightly know. He never really had time for foolishness, since his childhood seemed to go by in the blink of an eye but he does remember a few times when he had some time to do whatever he wanted. He'd go out to hunt foxes just out of boredom. It was pretty fun, Ennis thought, and he even caught a few sometimes in his own homemade traps. He'd drag the dead fox all the way home proud of himself - his parents thought he'd won a grand prize or something because of his beaming smile. It's hard to believe he'd been so foolish to be chasing foxes all day but where he grew up there wasn't much else to do. Growing up for Ennis was hard and it got even harder when his parents passed. When that happened, Ennis's childhood came to an end as well 'cause there was no more time for him to be playing there just too much work to be done and not enough time for anything else but getting by. Times like this it made him realized just how much he misses that time in his life; but most of all he misses his family.

While Ennis was off in his thoughts he didn't realize that they had moved and now with them off on the road, Jack humming to the radio, Ennis realizes for the first time that yes, he misses his family but they're gone and though he never really thinks back on his life, when he does he can't help but feel that they would be ashamed for his love for Jack and that always makes him distant towards Jack. He never told and probably never will tell Jack that that is the reason why he gets like he does; that and of course the fear – but the fear doesn't affect him anymore so neither should his parents. "They can't come back so why should I be afraid of them? I just hope that they realize I'm happy and I want Jack in my life. No matter how many people hate it, I will still be with him 'cause I love him and from the way I see it, he is my family. He and his mother will always be my family now until forever…"

"Ennis, Ennis, Ennis!"

Ennis's thoughts are interrupted by Jack's shouts. Ennis shakes his head and looks into Jack's beautiful face and, without even worrying about where they are or who might be watching, he grabs a hold of Jack and wraps his arms around him.

"I love you, Jack fucking Twist and I don't care what anyone else thinks," Ennis whispers in Jack's ear.

Jack wakes up with a start. He was so tired after unloading all that furniture that he must have fallen asleep on the couch. He gets up not noticing that there is more furniture than before at least not till he hits his foot while trying to find his way in the dark of the house.

"Damn it. What the hell…?" Jack swears and rubs his hurt foot.

"Hey, you're finally up," Ennis says while flipping on the kitchen light switch.

"We have power?" asks a very confused Jack.

"That's all you wanna know? Are you half asleep still or something? Don't you notice the lot of furniture that wasn't here before you fell asleep?" Ennis asks. Jack looks sleepily around the place in the dim light.

"Well, yeah, now I do. Where did all this come from, Ennis," Jack asks.

"Oh, it all came from a certain person," a female voice rings out around the walls. Jack walks over to the kitchen to stand next to Ennis and he notices the person standing there.

"Miss Gabby, you did all this."

She shakes her head, "I wanted to help and since I knew it would be awhile before you could move in, I figured I could help out with the furniture, so here you are," she says with her arms stretched. "It was hard getting everything in without waking you and then of course there was Ennis," she says and nods her head towards Ennis, "He kept saying that y'all couldn't accept it, but I wouldn't hear none of it," Miss Gabby smiles.

"I don't know what to say except thank you, thank you so much, but really this is too much," Jack says.

"Well if you can't just take it as a gift then I guess you can do some things for me like give me advice on how to fix a car. See, my car's been acting up on me and I just can't afford to take it to a shop."

"Well, I can check it out for ya while Jack finishes waking up," Ennis offers.

"Okay," Miss Gabby says a little too quickly for her liking.

Jack walks out on to the porch watching Ennis under the car hood totally fixated on finding the problem to the car and nothing else. Miss Gabby's acting like she really cares two cents about what Ennis is telling her instead of just wanting to be near him. Of course Jack can't blame her there; he's kinda surprised that he isn't a little jealous but he never was the jealous kind anyways and it's not like she is throwing herself at Ennis, she is just acting like… well what's the word… a lady with a crush.

Ennis slams the hood down and wipes his hands with a towel and goes to stand up on the porch by Jack.

"Well, thanks Ennis for helping with that."

"Yeah, it shouldn't give you no problem now and if it does, you just stop by and find me and I'll check it out," Ennis says.

"Of course. Well, I'd better be going. You got the money for your next house payment?"

Miss Gabby luckily has a nice boss who allows her to arrange monthly payments for Jack and Ennis although it's against the company's policy. She told her boss that she actually lied to Ennis and Jack about accepting monthly payments and told him about their situation and that they seemed like really nice and honest people, though she did wonder why two guys would want to live together. However she didn't banter on it - it wasn't her business - plus she liked them both.

"Yeah we got it," Jack says and goes into the house to retrieve it. "I want to thank you very much for what you did for us," Ennis says, barely a whisper.

"That's okay really, it's nothing," Miss Gabby says.

"Here you go," Jack says once back onto the porch and hands her the money for the next month's payment.

"Well thanks," Miss Gabby says and steps forward unexpectedly and hugs Ennis. "Thanks for letting me help," Miss Gabby whispers into Ennis's ear while both Ennis and Jack stand with the silliest expression on their faces. Miss Gabby giggles when she sees their expressions and then apologizes for invading Ennis's personal space.

"It's alright, just got me off guard that's all," Ennis says.

"Well, I just wanted to thank you and I thought we're friends so I didn't think I'd offend anyone."

"You didn't," Jack steps in, "you are a friend, I don't think any other sales-person would buy us furniture for our house," Jack says and he sees the tears falling down Miss Gabby's face and wraps his arms around her.

"Why are you crying, Miss Gabby?" Ennis asks puzzled by this sudden change. Miss Gabby steps away from Jack's embrace, "I'm sorry, I'm fine, I didn't mean to make anyone uncomfortable. It's just sometimes my emotions get the better of me."

"It's alright," Jack says.

"Well, I'd better be going. I'm sorry again. Just think of the furniture as a house warming gift," and with that Miss Gabby drives off into the dark distance.

"Well, what was up with her?" Ennis asks. Jack just shrugs and they walk into their house together.

"Well you're pretty good at decorating, Ennis, ever think about going into business?"

"Oh shut up," Ennis says while Jack snickers away.

"You know what?"

"What?"

"We can live here now. We have enough furniture and power and everything we need," Ennis says.

Jack just stands and stares. "Yeah, what about what you promised, huh?" Jack says and touches his belt buckle.

"Oh I'm gonna get to that," Ennis says and walks over to Jack. Slowly, he starts touching Jack anywhere that Ennis thinks would set Jack off.

"You're gonna moan my name everywhere in this house," Ennis says.

Jack just succumbs to Ennis's and his desire.

"I love you, Ennis del Mar," Jack whispers
