if thats not enough

The plane had just landed and Craig was on his cell with Chloe. He'd make this right. Cover his tracks. He had too.

"Sorry, I left so soon. But you really needed your rest, you know." He sounded as sweetly as he could. After all, things were sweet with Chloe. He wanted to keep them that way. "Really, I'll be back in no time, lov. I miss you, already. I don't even want to be here." He lied. He knew that wasn't true. He couldn't wait to see Kadan. He had to make this quick. From the corner of his eye he could see the back of Kadan's sunny hair. "I have to do this. Sorry." He waited. "I love you too." And hung up. Then rushed down the hall toward Kadan.

He thought for a second he'd lost all consciousness when Kadan turned around. They embraced in a long hug. Craig knew they had a lot of catching up to do.

"How long have you been waiting?" Craig wanted to know as if that had been a problem.

"Not long." Kadan bit his bottom lip and gave him a slight wink. "Wish we could have been on the same fiight, but uh, hey, you made it." He leaned in, almost kissed him but didn't. Instead he put his arm around Craig like he was a lost brother. "So...tell me everything, going on."

Craig thought he might pass out then, but he swallowed back what fear he had of letting go secrets. "You know, same old same. Crappy classes. Even more crappy flatmates. The usual."

"Yeah, right." Kadan had him in a playful headlock then. "Come on, lets get out of these clothes and go to the beach."

Craig felt his heart racing. It felt like magic to be here with Kadan.
