Connor closed his eyes and just relaxed for a moment, enjoying the feel of Cutter's hand on his cheek and of being close like this again.

"I've missed us too..." he said as he slowly opened his eyes and gave a smile. "I've never stopped missing this... never stopped... wanting this really" Connor said as he shifted slightly and looked at Cutter. "I never really stopped... loving you Nick" he said softly.

Yes he was a little drunk, but he knew what he was saying, It was what he had wanted to say for a while now. He had just always been afraid to lately.
