    Summary

    "Congrats again on the award; you deserve it." And with that, she disappeared into the crowd.

    Probably off to go plan how to hit on Jack. Jack, who this random doctor wanted to have sex with. Here. At the conference.

    Intellectually, Robby knew that was what people did at these things. Drunken hookups at conferences were common, though often denied, if not regretted. Robby had never partaken because that was not his speed, but Jack—

    Well, Jack had no such qualms. And at an ED medical conference, he was basically a rockstar. He could probably have anyone he wanted.

    Summary

    Thomas clears his throat. "We have held hands. Yesterday, after Compline, he kissed me. There has not been anything else.”

    “Kissed you?”

    Thomas studiously tips his head upward, avoiding all eye contact. “Yes. Not for very long.”

    “Was it any good?”

    “Aldo!”

    “Worth a shot.” Aldo grins. “You could get some real money with his admirers, you know. There’s a lot of young women out there wanting to know how the prettiest Pope to ever grace the See might kiss.”

    “Well.” With a certain primness Thomas folds his hands together. “I’m afraid they would have to go through me first.”

    Oh, John, Aldo thinks. Beloved, beloved.

    (Aldo Bellini can do without the papacy, but he cannot do without Thomas).
