Developing Feelings

Prologue

PROLOGUE

Gethin had known that Renly would die rather early in the series when he accepted the role. He had therefore also known that he would not be part of the cast for very long. What he had not been prepared for however, was how attached he would get to a certain fellow cast member during the time that he was there.
As Renly's death drew nearer, Gethin started dreading the day he would film his last scene as Renly. For that would mean that he would have to leave... That he would have to leave Finn.
Somewhere during the making out and romantic conversations between Renly and Loras, Gethin had fallen for Finn.
He had fallen hard and completely unexpectedly, since he had never before considered the possibility that he might be gay. He knew that it was very unprofessional of him to fall for one of his co-workers. After all, he was an actor and that meant he was supposed to act like he had feelings for Finn, not develop real ones.
He and Finn had become fast friends and were quite inseparable on and off set. But that was the problem: they were just friends, nothing more. Gethin doubted that Finn felt the same about him. They made out in front of the cameras and chatted platonically in their own time.
Filming the scene where Loras brings Maergery to Renly, was both bliss and torture at once. On the one hand, it was amazing to be making out with Finn, to trace his fingers over his skin and be that close to him. On the other hand, it was torture to be that close to Finn while knowing that none of it was real, it was just a show for the cameras.
Gethin really didn't know what to do, whether he should tell Finn about his feelings or not. But either way, he would be loathe to leave Finn and he would miss him more than he'd care to admit.
