Gus Drabble

 

~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~

 

“Daddy!”

“Hey, Sonnyboy!”

Gus is taller than Brian expects.  His arms reach further around his father’s neck than they used to do, and squeeze even more tightly, feeling like they will never let him go.  Just the way Gus’ tiny hand felt clasping his finger on that very first night, taking Brian’s heart in an unbreakable grip.

Holding his son who is so ecstatic to see him, while Justin (the other one who owns his heart) radiates his Sunshine smile at both of them, Brian can almost believe that the feeling’s mutual.  He is deeply and profoundly grateful for that.
