They had shot not one, but two videos and now there were happily sat at the table in their studio, working side by side. Brett was doing all the arranging, e-mailing and stuff for a new line of merch, while Eddy was doing the first rough edits on the videos they had made, before sending them off to the editor.
He would never ever have been able to fathom, when they first started Twoset way back when, how much work would go into all the bits outside the videos themselves. It was a lot, but he knew they both still believed in what they were doing just as much as when they first started.
At lunch time Brett stretched out and yawned.
¨Right! Wanna go get that bubble tea then?¨
¨Yeah! Just give me five minutes, then I can send this one off.¨
¨Okay!¨As they were walking along the street Eddy had to remind himself again that he couldn't just grab Brett's hand here. Good job he did, as well. They couldn't go a hundred metres in Brisbane anymore without someone wanting to say ¨hi¨.
¨So¨, Brett started after a while. ¨Do you have any idea where you'd like to hold our party?¨
Eddy was quiet for a moment. Did he have any idea?
¨Er, nah, I don't think so? To be honest, I don't care very much as long as it's nice. You?¨
¨Well, my uncle has quite a big house with a massive garden. I was wondering about asking him if we could do it there. What do you think?¨
¨Yeah, sure, that'd be awesome!¨ Eddy said. He'd been to Brett's uncle's house. It was beautiful, spacious and atmospheric. And he seemed to remember there was even a grand piano there. Maybe he could play something for Brett at the ceremony without him knowing about it, as a little surprise.
¨Actually, Brett, it sounds perfect. Because also it will be so much easier to keep the world out of it!¨ Eddy mused.
¨Alright, I'll ask him.¨
Brett sounded really happy. ¨But I guess we have to tell our parents first, hey?¨
¨Yeah, I've been thinking about that. I think I should probably tell my mum alone, because I'm not one hundred percent sure where she stands on it. I was thinking I may go this week.¨ Eddy tried his best to keep the tension out of his voice.
Didn't work, of course. Brett always knew how he felt.
¨She'll be fine, I'm sure of it. I'm sure she'll love it.¨
Eddy nodded. He hoped with all his heart that Brett was right .
It was only spring, but it was already really hot outside. Eddy was kind of regretting wearing his blue jeans. Luckily they weren't very far away from the bubble tea shop now.
¨Brett...¨ he said, a bit hesitantly because he wasn't sure what Brett wanted, ¨I was also thinking, maybe we could walk down the aisle together? And maybe I could ask my mum to give me away?¨
Brett was quiet for a moment, causing Eddy to look to his left to check he was okay, but when he saw him he was clearly touched. Brett's eyes were shining with some unnamed emotion.
¨I love the idea, Eddy. I'll ask my dad then if he will give me away.¨ Brett said, his voice soft.
They were quiet for a while then. Eddy's head floated to the beautiful gardens he'd seen a while ago when they were at Brett's uncle's house. Rows of white chairs, and flowers everywhere. The sunlight on their faces, shadows from the trees overhead playing over their matching suits.
Brett and him, walking through the middle aisle, their hands joined just like their hearts were, on their way to proclaim their love again, but this time in front of all the people they loved.
¨Hey, earth calling Eddy?¨ Brett voice came, his hand waving in front of Eddy's face. ¨You good?¨
Eddy laughed softly, shaking his head to clear it of the emotions that had been flooding in.
¨Yeah mate. Really good. Just daydreaming about it all.¨
Brett leant his head briefly against Eddy's shoulder, closing his eyes for a moment.
¨It's a nice dream.¨
