Mending Bridges || Krii7y

SEQUEL TO PAPER HEARTS

Jaren is finally home after college in London. Life is great: him and his mom are closer than ever, he's brought back his friend from London and he even has a boyfriend that he adores. Everything is perfect.

Until he unexpectedly bumps into the man he's spent the last three years trying to forget. John seems to have changed but is mending bridges the best thing to do? Or will disaster strike again?

"Why don't we start over?" He put his hand out between them. "Hi, I'm Jaren."

John looked at him with a confused expression on his face. "What?"

"I'm willing to forget everything before and start over. You gonna leave me hanging?" He wiggled his waiting fingers.

"No," John huffed. "I'm John."

His warm hand was in Jaren's a second later, who shook their joined hands once.

"Nice to meet you, John. Would you like to come inside and catch up?"

"I would love to."
