    Summary

    All Thomas could think to say was 'I love you.' Those unspoken words that had been festering between them for so long. He didn't need to say them. Aldo knew. It had been their understanding since they met. They loved each other and yet never once uttered the words. Now, they were all Thomas could think to say.
    I love you, Aldo Bellini. I love you. I love you. I love you.

    Thomas hears that Aldo is feeling sick so he shows up at his apartment to comfort him, and the trajectory of his future - and their relationship - changes in an instant.
