Stephen plans the evening with military precision.

Fitting really since Tom has just returned from another overseas stint.

Back now to work alongside Becker at the ARC.

It’s Diamond Jubilee season.

So fireworks galore.

Ah…………perfection:

Champagne-sweet kisses.

Tom’s dazzling smile.

Then a riotous rainbow of colours bursts against the night-sky.

“Isn’t that…….” But Stephen is speaking to empty air.

He finds Tom crouched behind the sofa, sobbing.

“I’m sorry………sorry………there was an explosion…………in the desert………children……blood………I……”

Stephen’s whisper is a tender pledge.

“Gently love…….it’ll be alright………we’re here………..together……….for always…..”

Tom leans into Stephen’s warmth, feeling the first tentative flutters of a fledgling peace.
