Summary
During the last year of Merlin filming, the boys live together for convenience sake. When it's all said and done Colin moves out, and Bradley tries to cope with his world crashing down all around him.
Yes, Bradley thought he'd be used to it by the time the idea of shared living space emerged. His heart gave an unexpected lurch when his mouth moved of its own accord - Why don't you stay at mine? - and Bradley knew he had to have this. Afterwards, all will be over anyway, so no one or nothing could take this away from him. He'd have it, this dysfunctional dependency, making him sick with want and elation and the knowledge that he was only kidding himself, but he still enjoyed the laughter even if the joke was on him.
It was all there, plain for him to see, so wonderfully simple in its complexity. There was never going to be anyone else.
