Living in downtown Toronto can be expensive and frustrating, but Leo is willing to deal with the traffic and working the overtime in order to experience everything else the city has to offer. Or would be, if he had any energy left to do so. The fact that his upstairs neighbour is making more noise that a herd of elephants isn't helping things either. Tired, irritated, and on the verge of losing his patience, Leo knows that things have got to change.<br><br>Gordy is one of the most attractive young men that Leo has ever met, and Leo has no doubt in his mind that Gordy has been using those good looks to get whatever he wants for a very long time. So when Gordy starts turning on the charm, Leo can't help but wonder if it's actual interest or merely appeasement.<br><br>Together they're going to try and figure out just what can be done with Gordy's new roommate -- an energetic, excitable, and very noisy young goat whose visit comes with a deathbed promise and a tight family bond. What Leo doesn't realise is that she also comes with an ability to make him understand more about himself than he could have ever imagined he needed to learn.

Gordy's Got a Problem

“Belinda!” Gordy beg-scolded. “Leo, I…” He shoved his left palm into his forehead, squeezing his eyes shut and screwing the rest of his face into a grimace. “I just—”


“This is not a guest, Gordy. This is a disaster.”


Leo knew he wasn’t being helpful, but he was too surprised to make an attempt to rein in his temper yet. Of all the things that could have possibly been going on up here, a goat wouldn’t have made it on a list of maybes. How could someone be so foolish as to bring something like this into the city? In such a small apartment? It wasn’t just irresponsible, it was cruel.


Gordy walked to his loveseat and dropped onto the hard, cushion-less platform. His arms hung between his legs, and his shoulders stooped so low, they were rounded. He looked too heartbroken for Leo to remain angry.
