Will Turner's Luck

“Dang, I’m gonna have ta think about that one. Ya’ll have a good time then,” said the cabbie before pulling his cab out of the drive.


Will took a deep breath. “Come on,” he said. Then, with some resolve, he put his arm around Robby’s waist and walked him to the door.


Once inside, Robby dropped the things he was carrying and pulled Will into his arms. He whimpered into Will’s mouth as their lips and tongues met. Will felt Robby’s strength as his arms wrapped around his body. He was in a vice grip but he didn’t care. All Will wanted, needed, was to be merged with, welded to, this man. If he died right now from lack of oxygen he wouldn’t regret it for one eternal moment.


“Oh, Will,” Robby moaned. “I just couldn’t be without you. I was so afraid you wouldn’t want me to come over.”


Will responded by pulling Robby’s tongue into his mouth so the smaller man couldn’t say any more.
