Fics like Home is Not A House (But If It Was, It'd Be Yours)

It was after dinner that Tommy made his decision. “I should head home,” he said reluctantly. “I’ll drive you,” Phil said, grabbing his keys off the end table. Phil was quiet as they drove. Tommy fiddled with the radio for a moment before just letting it play. He sighed and let his head fall against the window. There were so many things he wanted to say, starting with turn around and ending with please take me home with you. Instead, he said, “Phil, I can… talk to you about anything, right?” Phil’s response was immediate. “Of course. Anything.” He sent Tommy a look that Tommy could only classify as hopeful. “Big or small.” “Okay.” Tommy nodded. He didn’t know why he suddenly felt like crying. “Okay.” For a while, they just sat, stopped at a red light and listening to the blinker as it clicked away. Tommy tried to enjoy the heat of the car while it lasted. As they turned onto Tommy’s street, Phil asked, hesitant: “Is there something you want to talk to me about, Tommy?” For a moment, Tommy just chewed on the inside of his cheek, biting down until he tasted blood. “No,” he said finally. The lie tasted bitter on his tongue.
