Thursday Drabble - Auld Lang Syne

[will_porter]

He'd expected this. Lying in bed with Jason, the new year having been rung in hours before with dear friends, Will's mind is turning to his ex-husband. When they'd gotten married, he hadn't been able to imagine a future without him. But things had changed. His ex had packed his things, left a note, and taken off to pursue his own selfish needs.

Will's anger is fleeting. Gazing at his sleeping husband, Will knows Orlando's abandonment was a blessing. If not for his ex leaving, he wouldn't have been free to love the men who mean the world to him.
