  Summary

  Aaron works five jobs as a cleaner and general dogsbody. He lives a quiet life, even if it’s sometimes lonely, even if he has to count every penny, even if he works hard for little gain. He gets a sixth job at a studio and Marcus, his new boss, introduces him to Luke, a shy musician.
  Then he sees a battered snare drum in a charity shop window for a fiver, and it speaks to him.

  This is an AU to The Book Of Tears - same names, different timeline, some similarities, many differences. (But you don’t need to have read any of my other works to understand it)
