He felt distinctly separate from the rest of the benefit-goers, and he had no wish to talk to anyone. Yet his keen eyes raked across the crowd, taking in the wearer of every sparkling gown and the inhabitant of every tux. Noting the mood of every conversation.

We're going to be late," Jennifer muttered to her herself as she glanced up the stairs, then down at the slim, gold watch circling her wrist. With an impatient sigh, she lifted her voluminous skirt and carried herself across the room.

This was exactly what she needed to feel warm on such a cold, cold day. She opened her mouth to voice her thought to Jennifer as she stared down into the cup, inhaling the simple pleasure.

Conversations scattered throughout the room were louder. Smiles were wider. Hand gestures were more animated as people pointed out their new Christmas sweaters and other assorted accessories.

Jennifer questioned, choosing her words carefully. She had just returned to the living room from the kitchen where she had set two large garbage bags full of discarded Christmas wrapping paper from the day's festivities beside the back door.

Jack and Steve sat together in the hospital cafeteria drinking coffee. Steve hadn't said much since he had pushed for this detour of the original plans. Jack was getting worried. Steve had to be pushed into doing the right thing.

"Jack! I missed you--What took you so long?--I feel like I haven't seen you for hours." Jennifer finally paused, breathless, but only long enough to reach forward under the porch light, grab Jack's arm and yank him over the threshold.

Much to Jack's disappointment, however, there were no sirens sounding, something Jack thought would make a neat parallel to the first time they traveled to that cabin, even though this time they were traveling from it.

The golden beginnings of dawn outlined the window shade cut into the cabin wall. Slowly, he closed his eyes again, the aches in his body immediately overcome by a strange contentedness. A happiness.

Beautifully written and wow, do I want more.

And Jackson knows about Jack's past in your story, but hasn't told anyone, right? So that's an interesting point of bonding later down the line between the two brothers.

And I am really waiting for a Jack/Steve conversation about all this. This is a story that could have made Days a success in the 2000s. Exactly this.

He blinked once, twice, turning his head from side to side and burrowing himself deeper into the soft pillow beneath him. He felt the urge to follow the tempting siren song of sleep that was beckoning him to close his eyes again, but he fought to keep them open. Something was wrong. He blinked again, clearing his vision and trying to get his bearings. He felt very strange.

He knew this place. Why did he know this place?
