““If we could just stay in here forever, Jer…" "I know," he said and kissed him softly. "I know but there's a different world outside that door. One we don't really belong in but have to return to soon." John frowned and laid him back on the bed. "I don't want to think about it. I only want to think about this," he said and dragged his hand down Jeremy’s body. "It's just you and me right now, John.

As their lips touched again, he replied, "It doesn’t.””
