So close...

Hey... my name's Daniel Crawford, and I just moved to San Francisco. Please do not ask me about my relationship status, all you need to know is that I am not ready for anything at the moment.

Private: Sasquatch..really?

[dannyatthepier-blog]

Private: Yup. Don’t like it?

[c-stjames-deactivated20160417]

Private: Daniel I…I know..and you can’t get rid of me.

[dannyatthepier-blog]

Private: And that’s good, because I don’t want to. Face it, sasquatch, you are part of my life.

[c-stjames-deactivated20160417]

Private: No Daniel..I HAD you.

[dannyatthepier-blog]

Private: You still do. You’re not getting rid of me anytime soon.

[c-stjames-deactivated20160417]

Private: I relapsed..but I had you.

[dannyatthepier-blog]

Private: And you’ll always have me, Cole. No matter what.

[c-stjames-deactivated20160417]

Private: It was about you…and me.

[dannyatthepier-blog]

Private: About... about us? What happened in the dream?

[c-stjames-deactivated20160417]

Private: I really did miss you..I had a dream.

[dannyatthepier-blog]

Private: I really missed you too. What kind of dream?

[c-stjames-deactivated20160417]

[dannyatthepier-blog]

Russ: Because that was always the plan, Daniel. Neither of us are ready for a real relationship. Or we weren't. And what happens if we stay married, carrying on like we have been, and you meet someone? What if you fall madly in love with them but you can't openly DO anything because we're tied down.

Danny: I know it was the plan, but I didn't think... I didn't think I'd actually feel like I'm actually married to you. I thought it would feel like we're just roommates, with a bit of acting on the side, but.. but it doesn't feel like that anymore. Does it?

Danny: And what if I meet someone? Russ, I was devoted to staying single for the rest of my life, I didn't think I could ever be happy again. I still think I won't easily fall in love ever again. So if taht happens... if either of us falls head over heels... I guess that would be the moment we do divorce? That would be a very valid reason to divorce, after all....

[c-stjames-deactivated20160417]

Hey I was sick!

[dannyatthepier-blog]

That’s no excuse!

[c-stjames-deactivated20160417]

I’d like to see you try.

[dannyatthepier-blog]

Oh, you know I can. Or have you forgotten that little good-natured brawl we had a while back?

Russ: You want to stay married?

Danny: I don't know... yes? I mean, yeah, of course it's mostly your decision, this was for you from the very beginning, but... but as long as there's no real reason to divorce... why should we? And I really like being married to you.

[c-stjames-deactivated20160417]

You miss me huh?  Of course I did, like I could forget you.

[dannyatthepier-blog]

Of course, man, you’re my best friend, Russ excluded. And good, otherwise I’d have to kick your arse.

YOU DON’T OWN ALL THE POPTARTS

[dannyatthepier-blog]

Never claimed I did, but I own my poptarts. And you can’t have mine.

Russ: You'll be able to handle it. You're a very strong man, Daniel. And if later on down the road you still think there might be more to this, then maybe we can try us for real.

Danny: Can't we... can't we give this a bit more time? A little more time to be married, to... to not have to worry about being too close for a divorced couple? I mean, why would we divorce if we get along so well?

Russ: I'm not, but thank you for saying so. You won't loose me. We'll still be flatmates after everything is said and done.

Danny: But what if... what if that's not enough, Russ? What if, after being married to you, I won't be able to deal with... not being married to you?

Russ: Yeah, you've mentioned it. Please don't worry, alright? I mean, you've been amazing and more help to me than you could know.

Danny: I mean it tho.... You're amazing. Is it bad that I'm scared that I'll lose you once we.... you know? I mean, I'm just starting to figure stuff out, and...

Danny: So... I've been thinking...

Russ: Oh hi, Danny-boy. What about?

Danny: Just... I know we've talked about this in detail before, but...

Danny: You know that you're the best thing that happened to me in... like, forever... right?
