Jigsaws

Jace and Miles are two quiet and solitary boys, each for their own reasons, but when they both decide to find a job in the local cinema they can't seem to find common ground. Still, when a friend of Jace seems to start getting interested in Miles, their plan to ignore each other for the rest of their lives fails miserably and they're both faced with the inevitability of their mutual attraction.

It all happened so fast. There wasn't a reason or explanation, but only the sensation that things no longer were the way they were before, that something had changed, irretrievably.

His life had ceased to be, it had all become a long, excruciating, endless wait, until again his heart could beat again, and his lungs could fill with the air that separated him from him, until nothing separated them anymore and finally something in Jace could rest, his muscles could relax and nothing else could make him doubt of his own existence.

He was whole again, until he wasn't.

The wait would resume and Jace, not able to stand it, would go back to dreaming,

dreaming of him.
