Summary
“The only person in the world I wanted, when Liv died, was Robert,” Aaron ignored her protest, soldiering on. “He was in prison, and I couldn’t get in contact with him. So please, don’t ever tell me I don’t understand how it feels to go through something alone because your partner is in prison, because for six years, I dragged myself through life alone while my partner was in prison.”
episode coda to april 27.

Summary
"You said this was bigger than us." Aaron's staring into nothing, eyes unfocused, and it scares Robert more than tears would. "It didn't use to be that way.”
The before goes unsaid. Before Robert went to prison. Before he tore them apart.
Aaron looks up, and his eyes snap to Robert's. It's a relief, and it's not. "There wasn't ever anything bigger than us."
A pit of guilt settles inside Robert's stomach. The past, just another thing he cannot fix.Robert and Aaron finally start talking about the past couple of years, about change and love and hope. Set shortly after Moira gets released from prison.

Summary
He can feel everything, can feel where Robert's foot hooks around his own and where his elbow nestles against the slight curve above his hip and where his stomach presses against his lower back, a slight gap above where their bodies don't fully align.
His stomach.
His stomach with their kid inside.
What?
or
Robert wants another child. Aaron crashes out.

Summary
"I love you." Robert pulls away just enough so they can look each other in the eyes, and he lets his thumbs wipe the wetness from Aaron's cheeks. "You know that, don't ya? I love you so much."
Aaron smiles, hopes it doesn't look as sad as he feels. "I love you too."
Robert's lips return to his and he starts pushing Aaron backwards out of the kitchen. He's soft and warm and everything Aaron has ever wanted, despite the hurt and heartbreak that comes with it. Everything Aaron is about to lose.
Robert and Aaron's night together before Robert turns himself in.
