“You’re my home too, Thomas,” Jack whispered, his voice full of emotion. “It doesn’t matter where we are, as long as we’re together. You make everything better just by being there.”

Jack paused, his hand gently caressing Thomas’s cheek, his thumb brushing over his skin with tender care. “I’m so grateful you made that choice, that you came all this way for us. I promise I’ll never take that for granted. You and me, we’re in this for the long haul, and I wouldn’t want it any other way.” He leaned in for a soft kiss.
