EXCERPT
It was the first
time Sam and Declan had ever invited guests over to the apartment. It was such a normal thing to do, and the
thought of it made Sam feel ridiculously sentimental. Everyone seated at the table was in-love, and
everyone appeared happy. Sam could never
have guessed a year ago, that the man he had been emailing to discuss Oliver
and Annabelle’s impending nuptials would turn out to be the one.
Sam observed each
of their faces in turn, Declan, his own big, handsome man, grey eyes sparkling
with mirth and his cheeks flushed pink from alcohol and laughter. He was devouring his umpteenth petit four. And then Oliver, the brother who looked
nothing like Declan, with his average pasty looks, ‘strawberry blond’ ginger
hair, and angular features. And finally
Annabelle, wild dark curls cascading onto her shoulders, and her smile
radiating happiness. Sam felt so lucky
to be in their company, to feel at ease being himself.
Declan’s socked
foot slid up Sam’s trouser leg, Sam looked up to meet his gaze.
“Tell me. What was Sam like as a kid?” Declan said to Belle, while smirking at Sam.
“And what was
Declan like?” Sam addressed to Oliver,
returning Declan’s mischievous stare.
Oliver and
Annabelle turned and grinned at each other.
“Ladies first, darlin’,” Oliver said.
Annabelle fixed her gaze on Sam.
His eyes pleaded, as if he knew exactly which story Belle would choose
to share from her vast repertoire.
“When Sam was
six… or seven,” She began. Sam hid his
face in his hands and groaned.
Declan laughed at
the reaction, he couldn’t wait for the embarrassing story.
“… I think I was
around ten or eleven. Anyway, Dad was
always away a lot, you know, for work, and Sam asked mum what dad did for a
living. Mum couldn’t tell us he worked
for the government, for our own safety, of course. We all know how kids blab in the playground. We’ll, mum told Sam that our father worked as
an Escapology trainer, and when he was away, someone had gotten stuck and he
was helping them escape.”
“Awe, that’s
kinda cute,” Oliver said.
“Isn’t it! Any other child would have taken that with a
pinch of salt and moved on. But, my
darling brother was never like the other children” She said affectionately. Declan gave Sam a quizzical look.
“And thus, The Amazing Sam was born.”
“The Amazing
Sam?” Declan questioned.
“Oh God, this is
so embarrassing” Sam chipped in. “I was
‘that kid’ the geek with his head in books.
When other boys were playing football, I was always, researching. I got it into my head to read up about Escapology. Mum bought me a Houdini magic set, but… I only wanted the rope and handcuffs,” Sam
admitted.
Declan and Oliver
burst out laughing. Sam rested his chin
on his hand, “I knew you would laugh” He huffed.
