New York, Friday Night and Saturday Morning

Tony took the train up to New York on Friday afternoon and had a quick dinner with Lee before the show. After the performance, the cast gathered in Lee's apartment for drinks and the Tivo'd Olympics Opening Ceremonies.

"Vancouver FUCK YEAH!" Tony and Lee gave each other high-fives at the start of the ceremony.

"Canada is awesome," Tony said after a few drinks, then repeated it several times until Lee finally put a stop to it.

"Of course it is," Lee said. "It's where I met you." He kissed Tony soundly, ignoring the cheers from the others.

Neither of them were eager to get out of bed the next morning. It took Tony a few minutes to realize the knocking wasn't just his head throbbing. Screw it. Lee's apartment, he can deal, Tony thought. He pulled the covers over his head as Lee dragged himself out of bed to answer the door.

Tony dozed off again, but woke a few minutes later with Lee shaking him. "Wake up, Tony, we gotta talk."

"Seriously, now?" Tony muttered, under the covers.

Lee yanked the blankets back and shoved a magazine in his face.

Darkest Night Star's Boytoy A Teen Prostitute!

( This wasn't going to go well. )

New York, Late Saturday Night

Tony met Lee in his dressing room after the show. Despite having spent most of the last twenty-four hours together, Lee gave Tony a hug and kiss like they hadn't seen each other for months. They had to make up for all that time spent apart, after all.

"Lee!" Alicia, Lee's co-star, stuck her head in the open dressing room door. "You joining us for drinks tonight?"

"Got other plans," Lee told her.

Alicia grinned and winked at Tony, who blushed. "I bet you do," she said. "See ya tomorrow!" She ducked out, heading for adventures unknown.

Lee stuffed a couple of things in a backpack, zipped it up and slung it over his shoulder. They headed out of the theatre. No cabs were in sight at the moment, so Lee, after a quick glance around, pulled Tony into a nearby alley to kiss him again.

*FLASH*

Tony jerked his head up, searching for the source of the light. He realized a moment later that it was the last thing he should've done.

*FLASH FLASH FLASH*

He reached out his hand to call the camera to himself, anxious to remove the evidence and not even thinking of the consequences of using magic in front of a reporter.

"Don't," Lee said quickly, covering his Tony's outstretched hand with his own. "It's okay."

Tony hesitated for only a moment but it was long enough. The reporter dashed off. "It's going to be all over the Internet," he sighed.

Lee nodded. "Had to come out sooner or later. I'll call my publicist and she'll put a good spin on it." He pulled his phone from his pocket and gave Tony a quick kiss. "It's a relief, actually."

"Kinda late, isn't it?" Tony asked.

Lee grinned. "Timing's everything in P.R. Besides, I'm sure my bill will include an appropriate charge for the inconvenience." He hit a speed dial button and held the phone to his ear. "Jill!" he said a moment later. "You know that thing we were discussing? Time to go live."

Friday Morning, New York City

One of Lee's castmates from Pong! The Musical had hosted a gathering after the show last night and Tony and Lee didn't make it back to Lee's place until nearly four a.m. And it was quite a while before they went to sleep that morning.

Brunch, then, was closer to lunch, or maybe brinner, but it was eggs and toast and the works in a little café less than an hour after they'd dragged themselves out of bed, so brunch was what they called it.

After they'd eaten the meal and were lingering over coffee, the conversation turned to Tony's inevitable return to school.

"So," Lee said, playing with his coffee stirrer. "Do you and your friend Jack still have a 'friends with benefits' thing going?"

Tony raised his eyebrows at the question but nodded. "Yeah, sometimes," he said. "Is that... okay with you?"

Lee's coffee was certainly getting well-stirred. "What if it wasn't?" he asked, finally.

Tony felt a thrill of hope? excitement? lust? Something, anyway. "If I were to stop seeing other people, then I'd want the same from you," he said, keeping his tone casual. Thinking, in particular, of how Lee's co-star, Alicia ("Player 2") had been looking at Lee last night.

Lee nodded. "That's fair." He found Tony's hand under the table and squeezed it lightly. "We're not half a world apart any more. I don't want to be with anyone but you. Does that work for you?"

Jumping up and cheering would be extremely immature, Tony decided, so he settled for a grin. "Yeah," he said simply. "It works for me."
