Lester sighed as he finished reading the report. He had hoped for better news and knew exactly how his lover would react to it.

He informed Lorraine not to contact him unless the world was ending, and headed for home. He realised as soon as he saw the tension in his lover’s back that he knew.

Lester took him in his arms, pressing a kiss against his neck. “Don't give up, Tom.”

“I'll never be good enough again, James.”

“Rubbish,” Lester informed Ryan firmly. “Now, sit down and I'll make your favourite.”

Ryan grabbed Lester's wrist. “Thanks, James. Love you.”

Good for James, making sure Ryan knows he has his back.

*passes tissues*
James would, he even left work for his Ryan.

Thanks for reading.

Oh no. :( Lester will need to do a lot of comforting.

[knitekat.livejournal.com]

Lester will, and Ryan shouldn't give up so easily.

Thanks for reading.

Aww. Good that they have each other for this.

[knitekat.livejournal.com]

Glad you liked it. They have and they will take good care of each other.

Thanks for reading.

Wah, that's emotional. I'm glad Ryan has Lester.

[knitekat.livejournal.com]

Sorry. Ryan will be fine, especially with Lester there for him.

Thanks for reading.

Meep - that would be hard for them both to bear, but fortunately Ryan has Lester to support and encourage him

[knitekat.livejournal.com]

Sorry, but at least Ryan is alive and Lester won't let him give up.

Thanks for reading.

Aw - very nice combination of the prompt and the wild card. I wonder what Ryan's favourite is? Luckily Lester knows!

[knitekat.livejournal.com]

Glad you liked it. No idea, but Lester certainly knows what it is.

Thanks for reading.
