Chapter 38: Chapter 38

“Have you enjoyed yourself?” Connor asked while slinging one arm over Harley’s shoulders

Harley nodded. “This is the best date ever.”

Connor chuckled. “Glad to hear that. We can always come back some other time.”

Then they quietly stared at the twinkling stars. Harley scooted a bit closer to Connor, moaning in contentment when his boyfriend tightened his embrace.

“I can’t tell you how happy I am to finally have you next to me and in my arms. I’ve been waiting for you for more than six thousand years. Nothing in the world will separate the two of us ever again. Even after so many years, I’m still so in love with you, and that will never change.”

Harley pulled his boyfriend’s face closer to him. Maybe he was a foolish sap for love and romance, but Connor’s heartfelt declaration was the sweetest thing he ever received in his short lifetime.

“Thank you.”
