surprise Friday night chapter. Sorry to make everybody wait so long. I got home from work early, took a long nap, had a nice easy-to-fix dinner and tackled it!

“I want ta say I had a real honeymoon. ..”
Aw, Colson. I agree - and they definitely need more relaxation, especially when Ellery starts getting that tension in his chest...
“Somethin nice an black an tight.”
Ellery in nice and black and tight leather? Yes, please. :)
Thanks, Louise!

Well, this was a welcome Sunday afternoon surprise, Louise!

Now, his fury had vanished, leaving behind it only the passion and a kind of pride. I’m proud of being with a sexy man that I want. I’m proud that I want him.
Yes, this rings so true to me. I can see how getting out of the "pressure cooker" that you referred to would have this very effect on Colson.
The clothes were tailored to fit the size as snugly as possible, stretching smoothly over his hips and shoulders. ..
Oh, my. Now that would be a sight. No wonder Colson had a little trouble breathing there! ;D
“Well Jesus H. Christ,” Ellery replied, flabbergasted. “Now what am I gonna do when the other Colson comes back?” To his surprise, Colson chuckled.
“Put em on a plane ta San Diego, I suppose.”
:laugh: :laugh: This was great, Louise - thanks!

As you might tell, I have been mulling over the circumstances of Colson's "coming out" and how it would look, and how it would feel to him. I think it had to involve a few factors: one ways a perceived loss of privacy from having his family intrude on him, to make him more protective of his relationship. Another is an environment where he could have a sense of anonymity, which did not settle on him all at once but gradually, to allow him to experiment with crossing boundaries he had not tried before. And his expressing his frustration about competing for Ellery's attention is also part of that - being more aware of his own needs, and not just his sexual needs but his social needs. And I knew that without some sort of perceived break from his immediate familiar surroundings, and some frustration thrown on top of it, he wasn't going to test those boundaries beyond Ellery's bedroom.
