I'm everything I am
because you loved me

- 'Because You Love Me' by Celine Dion

ABCs of Love


U & Me

U is for U & Me


Eric glanced at Horatio and Natalia, watching how they held hands, gave each other smiles – how they loved one another. He was standing next to Tim.

"I envy them," Eric said quietly as he walked away to stand by a window.

Tim followed him a few seconds later, standing before him; he was close enough to touch but not doing so. "Eric..." He paused, "You deserve better than me - a pretty girl..."

Eric tried to hold back the tears as he shook his head, "But I want you..."

Tim studied him; there was no real reason, really to hide or deny what they felt for one another ever since they'd met. Tim mentally let go of society's norms or what other people would say as he moved closer to Eric.

"And I want you." he whispered just before he captured Eric's lips with his own.

It felt so right.

FIN.
