Summary
He's pretty sure he's mixing up different films by different directors but he'll Google it for a cute date idea in the future, right now, with Gerard looking the way they do; the silent swell of music playing somewhere off in the distance, it's pretty damn absurd they've gone this long without kissing again.

Summary
She lifts the organ, leaning in close to examine the soft pink walls and making sure everything has been swallowed. She lets go with a hum once satisfied, standing back to look her up and down, "Hm, nice progress has been made in my brief absence it seems, but we haven't done a check up in a while have we?"

Summary
For all the huff and puffing Ray did, and will do again, he's actually glad they kept pushing for him to go on a little weekday excursion into the wild. It's so unbelievable pretty that he snaps a few photos of some trees and the distant mountains. And when Gerard isn't looking an impressive angle of their butt.

Summary
“Let’s do what we actually came here to do.”
Ray’s smile softens. “Alright. Sure.”
He’s looking at Gerard now with that face—open, interested, calm—but behind it is this quiet expectation. Like he’s ready for something brilliant to fall out of Gerard’s mouth at any second. Like he believes it will.
Gerard’s stomach turns over. Because—fuck.
What did they come here to do?
What was the plan again?
Gerard invites Ray to a quiet cabin to work on stuff—music, whatever—but let’s be real, it’s mostly because he has a massive, poorly hidden crush. Ray says yes, of course. He always says yes. But things get a little blurry after their night turns into something… more. Now Gerard lost his virginity to Ray fuckin’ Toro.
