Blurb(s):
Damien Abner politely welcomes, albeit somewhat at a loss, Patrick's warm offer to spend time with him. To have a coffee, watch some movie, and dance along with the characters in it.
They begin to date and Patrick has
never been happier, though he barely knows who Damien is -- not that it
matters to him. For him, being clueless does mean bliss.
Excerpt:
"Do you like it?"
"Huh?"
"My guitar."
Confusion flashes across Damien's
good-looking face for a second.
"Oh, absolutely." His
smile cracks. He shifts on the couch to make space for Patrick. Patrick plops
down next to him and begins to sing. It's "More Than Words," one of
his favorite songs. Damien listens carefully.
Damien is silent, even after
Patrick has stopped singing. His eyes turn soft.
"So, what do you say? What do
you think of my voice?" Patrick asks impatiently.
Damien's still quiet. Then he
closes his eyes and reaches out a hand. He touches the side of Patrick's face.
Patrick holds his breath and closes
his eyes too. He doesn't dare to move. Damien's hand feels so warm and good on
his skin.
He lets out a heavy sigh when the
hand is gone and opens his eyes.
"That's the most beautiful
voice I've ever heard," Damien says.
Patrick doesn't know what to do. He
puts aside his guitar -- grabs it back -- lays it down on the table -- takes
it back again and holds it close to him. He rocks slowly on the couch.
"Thank you," he murmurs
-- not sure whether he is expressing gratitude for the compliment or the
touch.
Damien stands up.
"You're leaving?" Patrick
asks, disappointed.
"I have other things I need to
do, Patrick."
Patrick swallows deep. He turns
away. "Okay. It's almost dark anyway and I haven't been to the
garden."
"Yeah."
"Will you come again?"
"Do you want me to?"
"I'd love you to."
"So I'll come."
Damien waves and walks away.
As if to remind Patrick he's there,
Chad crawls up Patrick's shirt front. Patrick palms him up and puts him on the
table.
"Do you like him, too?"
Patrick asks.
Chad
only chirps.

Author Bio:
Iyana writes M/M short stories and novellas. Her works have been published by Evernight Publishing, JMS Books, Books to Go Now, Torquere Press, Bitten Press, Leap of Faith Publishing, Breathless Press, and Alfie Dog Fiction.Iyana lives in Jakarta, a city famous for its traffic jams, a lot of cars and motorcycles, and people selling stuff on the roads. You can spend two hours on the road going to a place you can reach in half an hour in a normal situation. Thanks to the traffic jams, though, Iyana can come up with a lot of stories, mostly shorties, as she prefers to spend the time during her trips writing into her cell phone rather than sleeping.
Another thing Iyana loves is kitties. Right now she has three of them. Their names are Cil, Horus, and Betsy, and one kitten. When she doesn’t write, she plays with them, or they would play with her when she writes.
