Which is more than I n say for our gay ary boys at the center of the drama last the show opened I wonred how much of Meredh's selfish banter I'd have to endure before the reason for me tung popped up on screen.

Obvly Darren's upset that Todd showed up, seeg how he's beg ployed five days and all, but wh only Meredh the room Todd lets Darren know that he's not gog anywhere and he mak his way to the bed and reassur his secret lover wh a crazy tense stare that leads to one of the most sensual, emotnal and damn near heart-breakg gay kiss I've ever seen on work, the passn and relief vanish the mute Darren's ex-Solir of a Father walks , tchg the boys makg out. I wanted to believe that the two uld work through the fear and nial (not to mentn the ary) to be happy and gay together.
