Status Updates From Fellow Travelers: A Novel

Ok maybe it was a rough start they’re cute

Or maybe Hawk had left him for a few minutes in this dark space above the littered street to reacclimate himself to the fact that he would always have to wait for Hawkins Fuller, for each brief chance to be alone with him, separate from the rest of the world.

“Promise you won’t write.”

“I promise,” Hawkins said.

“I can’t—” said Hawkins. “I know,” said Tim, recovering as quickly as he could.

“I know. You can’t have this.”

........

And yet, for all that, he wanted to hear Tim’s chatter, wanted the intermittent pleasure of protecting him; and wanted to fuck him on the floor of the car once it was dark enough to pull over into the woods.

None of it mattered. He now knew that he himself would tell any lie, deny even Christ, for one more touch of Hawkins’ hand.

Bro I’m BORED!! I am finding it so hard to care about the historic fiction of it all when the history is basically just name (and street) dropping in every paragraph. But it is making me want to watch the series even more because many of these issues could be fixed if there was far less telling and far more ~*implications*~
