A hand carefully picked up a wooden frame, fingers traced over the picture protected behind glass. A smile ghosted over the man's face as he remembered the moment it was taken.
Two young men, holding hands when they thought no one was looking. Unbeknownst to them a sneaky architect was capturing their private moment. It felt like only yesterday.

"We'll be young forever, darling."
In their memories they were young men together. Even better than that, however, was the life they shared together everyday.
