Danny's freckles were like stars.
Constellations that resided on his soft skin.
Mack loved those freckles.
He adored them but not as much as he loved Danny.
Mack knew he would soon have to part ways with his love.
For how long?
It wasn't anything set in stone.
So he made a plan.
A plan he would follow through with.
He would kiss Danny in a fortnight's time.
He would take the boy out to the green hills.
They would look up at the twinkling stars.
He would grab his hand gently and intertwine their fingers together
And he would kiss the boy like he had longed to for so many summers, autumns, winters and springs.
And if all went South, Mack would know that this was what he wanted.
What he wanted and wished for.
For so many days.
And so many nights.
