Howard stared at Vince's tightened shoulders, the dejected slope of his back as he sat facing away on the hotel bed. He'd made rather a mess of things, hadn't he?

“Vince, I'm sorry.”

“What have you got to be sorry for? S'my fault, ain't it? I shouldn't've misunderstood.”

“What do you mean, misunderstood?”

A pause. “I thought this weekend was meant to be … y'know, time alone. Just us.”

“It was! It is.” Howard groaned. “I'm the one who should be sorry, Vince. I got carried away.” His eyes drifted over to the bedside table, where his carefully typed and color-coded itinerary still sat, the source of their argument.

With a deep sigh, Vince flopped backwards onto the bed, his arms outspread. “I s'pose … I just wanted to be somewhere nobody knew us.”

“You wanted nobody to know who you were?” Howard asked warily and skeptically.

Vince grinned, a little shyly. “'Cept you … you're the only one who matters.”

Howard climbed onto the bed, pulling Vince against him. “Well … do you want to get lost this weekend?”

Vince smiled, and kissed him. “I do, most definitely.”
