For actor Daniel Jacobs, accepting he’s gay is easier than he expected. But actually acting on the attraction he’s just begun to acknowledge proves more difficult.

They’re starting to find their way toward more, but it will only work if they can recognize the peace they bring one another.

Something Like Peace

Vincent’s gaze flicked to his watch, then back up to my face where it settled. “Yeah, but only just.”


I nodded. Licked my lips. Took a deep breath. And then I smiled, making it as seductive as I knew how. “A couple of weeks ago,” I began, keeping my voice low, “you said to let you know if I wanted more. Did you mean it?”


Vincent’s gaze never wavered. “I meant it.”


“Great,” I said, and offered him a huge grin. Then, feeling silly, I over-exaggerated my flirtatious behavior. “You look gorgeous in that shirt. So, what’re you doing later?”


He blinked at me, then burst out laughing. It was such a rare occurrence that nearly everyone turned to look. Just that fast, Vincent sobered and scowled, the look enough to send everyone back to their tasks.


“You’re an idiot,” he muttered, but I could hear the affection in his tone. “And later I’ll be going to your place to eat and then fuck.”
