Bookmark Notes:
It’s midmorning before they make it out of bed. Finn brings caf out to the deck where Poe’s sprawled in the sun wearing only a pair of shorts. He’s already tanned darker than when he arrived.
Finn hands him the binoculars. “Could you swim that far?” he asks, pointing to the distant island.
“Buddy, if I need binoculars to see it, I can’t swim to it,” he says with a grin. Poe’s smiling at him all the time: it’s bedazzling, distracting. Finn wants to say yes to everything.
Poe has aged really, really well: it’s worn him, purified him, sharpened the line of his jaw and all the good things that show through his face. It’s brightened his hair with silver and darkened his eyes, brought everything into relief so sharp Finn has to look away before he calls out.
And when he does, Poe’s head whips round and something even brighter shines through his face. A second later they’re flinging their arms round each other in the middle of the landing bay, and Finn has his eyes squeezed tight shut against a wave of emotion he wasn’t expecting.
