    Summary

    “A week!” Yusuf says dramatically. “A week there, and a week back, and all the days you would spend at home – how could I be parted with you for so long? I only just found you.”

    He is startled when Nicky laughs. (If, by startled, he means surprised, but also relentlessly charmed and weak in the knees.)

    Pressing his advantage, he slinks closer to smell the lavender soap on Nicky’s skin, feel the warmth of his body through their clothes. “Allow me to send word,” he murmurs against Nicky’s ear. “You can visit later, when I can bear to be parted from you.”

    Nicky sighs, and Yusuf will wonder for days after if it is in reluctance or in pleasure. “All right,” he agrees.
