Lover and Friend
“Hey, buddy, what’s up?”
Rodney’s expression, which had been downright stormy, brightened immediately. “I am, aren’t I?”
“Aren’t you what?” asked John, sitting opposite him at the mess table.
“Your buddy.”
“You’re asking me this now? Rodney, we’ve been married for twenty years.”
Rodney frowned again. “That wasn’t what I meant. I just… we’re married and friends.”
“What, you want me to macramé you a friendship bracelet?”
“Now you’re just being obnoxious on purpose.”
John laughed and reached across the table to take his hand, rubbing a thumb over the gold wedding band on Rodney’s finger. “What are friends for?”
