    Summary

    No amount of time with Paul was ever enough. Whatever he felt was never stagnant: it ran deeper than he could possibly see, the widest and wildest of rivers. And distance, he was beginning to realise, could only ever keep it at bay for so long.

     

    Fill in for the prompt: During his walks through New York City, John keeps hallucinating Teddy Boy Paul, but never gets close enough to actually talk to him.

    Summary

    There was a time when they couldn’t get enough of each other; when they would tell each other everything about their lives, only they didn’t need to, with how deeply immersed they were in one another. There was a time when he would’ve known if Paul was in the same city as him.

    John sees Paul in the street while he's in Liverpool for a break. It's funny, because neither of them knew the other would be in town. And John can't figure out why that is.

    "That's a nice one," John murmured, his voice scratchy. His eyes slid closed. "Play it again?"
