PHOTO DESCRIPTION: Two men in rainbow body paint hang out behind the staging area for a fair.

STORY LETTER

Dear Author,

Please help me out!?!

How did we end up like this, who took the picture and where will we go from here???

...Sorry I forgot to introduce myself. My name is Gabriel, I'm a (really mean) lawyer and I don't do relationships! (or do I?).

The short, cute and sexy (did I really write this?) guy beside me is my little brother's best friend Shane, he owns a Harley, a little bar at the beach and claims to be a Top.

You can ignore the prompt and surprise me :) but... please give them a "real-live" story and a HEA, no Comic or BDSM

Sincerely,

Tailtiu

The photo contributor gave a lovely prompt, but when I saw this picture, the word "courage" immediately popped into my head. The contributor graciously allowed the freedom to ignore her prompt. The boys and I are entirely grateful (though they have completely changed the story from what I initially envisioned).

*note: the author has taken literary license to create a small beach town west of highway 75 in Southern California. For those who are interested in these things, it is approximately 15 miles north of the Mexican border and southwest of the San Diego National Wildlife Refuge Complex.
