Three words.

It was just three teeny weenie words.

“Move in properly.”

Lester had spoken them, in that amazing casual but abrupt manner that only he could master, over breakfast one morning, without even looking at him. He’d stuttered a bit, but could feel the grin almost breaking his face.

“Yes, yes, of course I will.”

But those three little words had changed everything. They told Connor exactly what he meant to Lester; told him “where they were” (‘cos heaven forbid they ever talked about anything); and they let him move on, stride forward and leave everything else behind him.

awww, Lester does have a heart, he just hides it well.

Ah! How sweet!

[nietie.livejournal.com]

Sweet! (Oops, I hope Lester didn't hear that).

Love your icon!

Daw, oh Lester. Very nice. Even if I am confused as to how this relates to 'goodbye' but still! Very nice.

Awwwwwww...

I was going for "saying goodbye to his old life". A little obscure I know, but I really wanted to do a happy goodbye!

[canadian-jay.livejournal.com]

Ah! I see. *is a bit slow today* And yes, I happy goodbye is a good thing. *g*

[canadian-jay.livejournal.com]

Sigh. "A happy" not "I happy"

Lovely Drabble.

[lukadreaming.livejournal.com]

Lovely! And very Lester -- a heart well-hidden under the smart suit *g*.

[joereaves.livejournal.com]

Yes :D This is just how the two of them would go about a relationship. Because God forbid they talk like sensible adults, lol.

[knitekat.livejournal.com]

Awww. Love the oblique take on the prompt, and that would be them in a relationship.

Good drabble. That are some slight different words as I was expecting after reading the first sentence. But they were telling probably more than an usual love declaration.

[echo-fangirl.livejournal.com]

Eee! Once again, Lester proves once that he is the master of entirely unromantic declarations of affection. :)

[fredbassett]

That was lovely :)

eeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeee

:D

Also, nice take on the prompt, and if it seems obscure, who cares, LOL.

'cos heaven forbid they ever talked about anything

That made me laugh because I can so imagine between Connor's awkwardness and Lester's stiff upper lip, they never would!

[cordeliadelayne]

Aw, that's lovely!
