This was short but so powerful. You totally put in a rare pairing and that increased the greatness.
“Hi,” the boy said, his eyes were bright and knowing. Bob had seen Gerard look at Frank like that and in the back of his mind he could still feel the boy. He was curled up in there, making himself at home.
“Bob,” he said, even though he already knew. Just like he knew the boys name was Ryan, his favorite flavor of ice cream was Vanilla with hot fudge, that he was not a morning person and that he’d begged his father to stop.
“I know.”
I really loved the ending. You created this entire universe in this story and you made it come alive. Even if you did not expand this (though I seriously hope you do!), this would be completely perfect.
