Chapter 22

Unlike Warren's Saturday, his Sunday was mundane and ordinary again. Why couldn't every day be like the day before?
Warren was still daydreaming about everything they had done, starting with the tomato shopping at the garden center, flying to San Diego for tacos, piloting a plane himself(!) – possibly the most exciting thing he had ever done in his life – spending the afternoon on Tanner's terrasse, and then a delicious, delivered Vietnamese soup for dinner, after which Tanner had paid a cab for Warren to go back home. Everything had been so perfectly awesome. Almost like in the movies.
Warren's life was never like that... Was Tanner's life always like that?

With a sigh, Warren stared at his computer screen that showed him Jack with some guy somewhere. It was a video he had, of course, watched many times before, and one he had always enjoyed, but today, to his great dismay, it didn't seem to thrill him much. Was he seriously bored? How could he be bored of watching Jack having sex with some hot guy? It was his favorite activity!
Wasn't it?

His mind slowly wandered back to his boss. Did Tanner really not want any of the stuff he was planting? Would he really let Warren have all of it? And if so, what would Warren do with it?
He had spent a large portion of last night thinking about it, simply because it presented an opportunity he had never had before.
After getting sick, Warren's mother got very much into healthy living and often sent Warren random YouTube videos or links to health pages, which he barely ever looked at. How many times had he lied to his mother about eating healthy?
It's not like Warren didn't care about his health – at least a little bit – he just couldn't afford a healthy lifestyle. Not only because healthy food was unaffordable to him, but also because he lacked motivation and he simply didn't want to think about it. Thinking about it only reminded him of the situation he was in and that depressed him. More often than not, he was too depressed and miserable to even care about his health, and just really wanted to stuff himself with chocolate, chips, cookies, and other comfort food. If it weren't for his amazing genes, he would definitely be fat. Something that probably wouldn't last forever though... It's not like he was getting any younger. Perhaps it was time to face reality for a change, and seize the chance offered to him. Especially, because unlike usually, he felt strangely motivated and inspired. He wasn't sure what he was motivated for, but definitely for something. For something more than porn...
Spending just one day with Tanner had shown him a glimpse of a world he had never seen before; a world that offered so much more than he had ever thought of. Alright, sure, it's not like he could afford everything Tanner did, but there were certain things he could afford – such as a tomato plant – and that was better than what he had done so far in his life. Which was watching porn.

With an internal nod, he switched off the movie, without even bothering to jerk off, and started googling 'urban gardens'. Apparently, Tanner was right and that actually was a real thing, and to Warren's great surprise, it appeared rather popular too.

Tristan spent an unbelievably boring Sunday because every time he thought of doing something, he realized he would much rather do it with Warren. Why hadn't he asked to spend the day with him?!
Oh right, because that would seem too needy.
Except... He really was needy. If it were up to him, they would spend every waking hour together. And every sleeping one too.
Ugh. Was he really so incapable of being alone? Until he had moved to America he had almost gotten used to being on his own, but now he truly began to hate it. He missed sharing his life with someone. He missed talking to someone. He missed days like yesterday.

Unfortunately, his entire day went by without doing anything productive except hitting the gym for a while and visiting the garden center again. He couldn't wait to see Warren the following day at work; it was all he was able to think of.
There was no way he was waiting until next Saturday so they could spend time together again.
