   Summary

   Robert seems so confused. And yet, he looks so in love, like he said he would always be, and Aaron has never wanted to hug him more.
   “Well.” Robert says, and Aaron can see how he’s trying to be brave, “I guess it’s not Christmas 2017 anymore, isn’t it?”

   aka

   John has been found out and arrested, Aaron is broken and in love, and Robert doesn't remember a thing since he left the pub on that fated day in 2017.
