HIS SECRET DESIRE (MxM)
Christopher's POV
I had planned it for a Friday evening.
No restaurant, no staged setting, no photographer waiting in a corner somewhere. Robin was not that kind of person and neither was I anymore, if I ever had been. What I wanted was the apartment, our apartment, the space we had built our ordinary life in, because ordinary was not a small thing when you had spent years being denied it.
I told Robin on Wednesday that I wanted to cook on Friday, which was not unusual enough to raise suspicion. I cooked maybe once a week, it was something I had discovered I was reasonably good at and genuinely enjoyed, and Robin had long since learned to accept this without making it into an event.
