John smiled brightly as he carefully drew in his sketch book at the kitchen table in the apartment he shared with his boyfriend and two best friends. He was slowly working on a commission, a simple bouquet of flowers, he didn't know why that's what someone wanted, but they offered thirty dollars, so he accepted it. He had been working on it all morning while his favorite radio station was on the radio on the counter.
