A/N: For the P100 challenge 240: Keeping Warm. Part of my Making An Impression drabble series and follows Warnings. Thanks to Fred for looking at it for me. Um, angsty?


Connor's smile faded as soon as he closed his door and looked around his old room; it was good of Abby to offer him somewhere to stay, but it wasn't home, it just wasn't.

He climbed into bed and huddled miserably under his covers, hugging one of James' shirts he had accidentally packed. OK, so it hadn't been an accident, he still loved James and had wanted a reminder of him; even now.

He buried his nose and breathed the well-loved scent, blinking back the tears that threatened. He couldn't help wonder if James' new lover was keeping him warm.

****

Lester felt so cold as he lay in their empty bed. Connor had filled his life with so much warmth, not just physically when they had hugged, snuggled and shagged. No, Connor had thawed Lester's frozen heart and shown him he was worthy of being loved when he had given up on ever being wanted.

Lester had had it all, again, and had thrown it all away, again.

But this time he would not give up, he would win Connor back. He would prove his love and that he was worthy of Connor.

He fell asleep, warmed by that thought.

Trouble in paradise? Eek!

*Meep* *MEEP* *meep* :'-(( *Wibble* *WIBBLE* *wibble* Not cool. Poor boys. They NEED each other so they both have a snuggle buddy. I would have hoped that a prompt like keeping warm would have launched fuzzy fluffy binnies, but now I'm all cold after reading this. :-( You need to lock these two on the other side of an anomaly so they can figure out their issues! ASAP!. LOL!

Lovely angst - and won't it make the eventual happy ending even more heartfelt?

Oh, so sad, but really sweet!
Lovely drabble!

Meep! Angst alert! You're being very mean to them lately.

[samueljames]

Oh no. I really felt bad for both of them here but Lester's determination to fix things.

*Meep*
I want Lester to succeed in his plan, I really, really do.

[fififolle]

Oh god!! Lester, please say this is all a mistake! Whoever that guy was, whatever it had to do with Burton, fix this!!!! *wibbles*
Poor Connor :(((

Meanie.
Meanie.

Even if sunshine and kittens came up in a prompt, you'd find the angst, wouldn't you? *G*

I look forward to seeing how you get the boys out of this one!

*sniffle* Oh, poor boys! But at least Lester seems quite determined. Connor hanging onto the shirt is a lovely image (and he can't even pretend to himself that it was an accident, awww, bless).

I'm glad Lester isn't giving up!
