In this final installment of Rack and Daniel’s story, Daniel is still reeling from breakfast, where Rack made his point the hard way, when the tour moves on to Denver. Unable to talk to Rack because they have separate seats, Daniel worries over Josh, and decides all he really wants to do is go home with Rack and live the quiet life for awhile.
Can Rack and Daniel work things out? And will Josh be able to get what he wants? Read it now in the last chapter of the Stranger Things Chaser series!
Sample
"Guess we've got the same seating arrangement on this leg of the flight?" It's funny how awkward it feels talking to Rack. Daniel has a squiggly feeling in his stomach, along with a deep knot, when he looks at his lover, who has absolutely zero bounce in his step, but does seem to have a problem meeting Daniel's eyes.
"Reckon so," Rack says shortly. "It's not too long of a flight, anyhow." For some reason, to go from Dallas to Denver they've had a trip to North Dakota in between. Alas for the cheap seats.
Rack shoulders his carry-on, containing a dog-eared novel and a change of clothes; for some reason Daniel doesn't understand. Well, the clothes, anyway. He has a novel of his own, picked up at shop near the last hotel, and a CD player in his travel bag.
As soon as they hit the skies, he plans on letting the tunes take him away. Just like Calgon.
In the meantime, they're blocking the aisle. This feels seriously weird, like the two of them ought to kiss, but neither can really bring themselves close enough to touch lips. Daniel knows why he's hesitant -- he's still upset at Rack for kissing Josh. Why Rack's upset, he has no idea. He was the one who got to come out on top this morning.
"See you in Denver," Daniel says at last, when the bottleneck starts getting seriously impatient.
"Yeah, right. Denver." Rack ducks into his row, and Daniel, with a sigh, heads further toward the back of the plane. He's not sure if it's a sound of relief or regret, or something else altogether. All he knows is that, while it does feel strange not to be sitting with Rack during their flight, he's kind of glad to have the time by himself.
