Someone to Love Him

“Yes, I mean it. In a short span of time, you’ve become very important to me. I know you might not feel the same way about me. Especially after what you’ve gone through with Jourdain.” Finn took Luke’s hands in his. “Please believe I’m not playing you to get to him. I do care about you. Probably more than I should.”


“I never thought that!” Luke protested. “You’re not like that—like him.” He freed his hands so he could wrap his arms around Finn. “I care too. About you. And I don’t think there’s anything wrong with that, even if you are a little…weird.”


“Weird? Me?” Finn shot him an innocent look. “I’m your average everyday man. Well—with a little added something.”


“Only when it’s full,” Finn replied with a straight face.


“I can deal with that.” Luke gazed at him for a long moment, then did what he had wanted to since he’d found out Finn was gay. He kissed him.
