It was still another two hours until the time he'd told Dev he would be calling, but Tom was finding it harder and harder to wait. Giving in he stepped into the spare room he'd been using and stretched out on the bed. At worst the youger man would still be at work and he'd have to call him later, but for some reason he just wanted to hear Dev's voice. Half expecting voice mail he sat and listened to the phone ring.

Dev had been considering calling Tom instead of waiting for his lover to call him at the appointed time, but he knew he'd feel awful if he interrupted something important. So, when he saw that it was Tom calling him early, he squealed softly and picked up.

"How'd you know I needed to hear from you earlier?"

"You did?" Tom was surprised, Dev sounded strange, not exactly upset, but not happy either. "Is everything alright, sweetheart?"

Dev sighed and sat down heavily on his sofa. "It could be better. I called my mom and told her about you." He didn't see any reason to play coy with the man he loved more than anything.
