Like Rhett Butler

It's silly really, a grown man like Len shouldn't be brooding and sulking as much as he was.

Len remembers college. He was with Jocelyn at the time- and he remembers how it was hard having a relationship with someone so far away. He remembers coming home every other weekend or less and seeing his girl friend for such a short amount of time then having to going back to school leaving his girl; it was rough. What Len does not remember is him being a position where he is left behind at home to wait for his 19 year old lover to come back home.

Pavel is a genius- he'll graduate undergrad next year at the age of 20 and start on his masters program a university closer to home. Len knows Pavel studies hard and that there are times where Pavel just needs some time and space alone to just rest and refuel, and Leonard is patient with his too young of a lover but he can't deny the fact that every time his dear Pasha goes away the days become longer and the his moods turn stale.

Pavel walks back into the house and stands in the doorway looking at Len and gives him a sad smile.

"You dont have to worry, Leonard, i will not leave you for a younger man," Pavel teased Len lightly calling out Len in his own special way by adding an extra vowel and syllable in his name.

"I dont worry about the other boys, darlin" Len said giving a smile back, "I'm pretty sure you can't find a man to replace me so easily."

Len's moods lightened as Pavel smiles brightly and bounces into his arms laughing.Toned arms embrace around Len's neck and Pavel's lean body presses warming against his own. The older man bows his head so he can inhale the younger man's lose curls that so prettily frame his face.

"You know one of these days I'm not going to let you go," Len mutters against Pavel's temple. Leonard can feel Pavel's lips draw into a soft smile.

"One of these days I will come home and I won't have to leave," Pavel says. Len doesn't respond, instead he holds his young lover closer. Pavel chuckles, "What no reply?" Len leans back away a little to look into Pavel's gray blue eyes.

"When that day comes, I'll come and sweep you off your feet like Rhett Butler and kiss you and say, "Welcome home, never leave me again." Pavel's eyes soften at Leonard's declaration. He closes his eyes and imagines the day he doesn't have to leave Leonard every weekend and smiles. He opens his eyes to look into Leonard's evergreens and says,

"You can do that first part right now if you want."
