Childhood Friends
Cottage Garden
After being buried in work for what felt like forever, Isaac finally let loose and drank a bit too much during a night out with his only real friend, James. It had been ages since he got that drunk, and when he came to the next morning in a hotel room, he wasn’t alone.
Lying beside him was Theodore — his old boarding school roommate — someone he hadn’t seen since he vanished years ago without warning. Their reunion didn’t feel casual or coincidental. Something about Theodore’s sudden reappearance didn’t sit right, and the way he acted… it wasn’t exactly how an old friend would behave.
Why did he come back now? What does he really want from Isaac?
