Something Like Peace

I squinted at him. “Do you want me to move into one of the other rooms?” I asked cautiously, wondering where he was going with this.


His expression didn’t change. “This isn’t about what I want. This is about what you’re comfortable with.”

There would be no hiding the fact that I was gay. Months ago, in Vincent’s hotel, I’d told him I wasn’t sure what I wanted to do. But everything had changed since then.

“Good.” Vincent’s pleased smile as he turned his attention back to his notes confirmed it.
