Happy 40th to CP. Just a little something.
“How about a cruise?”
Zach shook his head. “No. Just a few years ago there was all that pandemic stuff.”
Chris frowned. “I’ve never been. Thought it might be fun.”
“Uh-uh. Maybe in another five years.”
Chris sighed. “Hawaii.”
“That’s nice but I went there with M—”
“Forget it,” Chris said quickly. “Australia?”
“Really long flight.”
“Damn it, Zach, where do you want to go then?”
Zach reached for and grabbed Chris’ hand to pull him close. He put his hands on Chris’ hips then. “You want a crazy idea?”
“You’ve shot down every one of mine, so I’d love to hear what you suggest for our summer vacation.”
“A staycation.”
Chris rolled his eyes. “What?”
“We have the pool, the jacuzzi, the tennis courts. Even a gym. We disconnect from the world, no phones, no internet, no social media. Just you and me for your birthday and the natural order of things. Well for people with a pool and a spa, anyway.”
Chris put down the brochures. “That’s starting to sound okay.”
“Of course it does. We can barbecue, lie out by the pool. If it gets too hot, we move inside and do each other.”
Chris laughed. “Okay, okay, you’ve convinced me. You always do.”
Zach smiled and kissed him. “I always do.”

Who could ask for anything more! Awesome choice. 40 is a big one for Chris. And yet, still the most gorgeous thing on the planet. IMHO.
I hope he has an amazing day. I’m just enjoying the birthday gift somehow WE get here!

It’s all down hill from 40. Or over the hill anyway. Seems like a life time ago.
I hope he does too. A couple of years ago he had dinner at some fancy place with his friend Patrick from Suits as Patrick’s birthday is around the same day. But no doing that THIS year.

Hoped he had a great birthday. Was hoping to see more Pinto interactions now that Zach’s in LA but they’re still private as ever
