Dude, that fic is so on my list! Ugh, you would think that since I'm not working I'd be able to get something written, but I apparently can't! Um. I started it at least?
Zach had managed to get along just fine before Shaun came along. There was no reason he should be so disconcerted about Shaun being out of town. Besides, it was only three weeks, 21 days. And the book tour was important. Zach knew he should be proud of Shaun, should be supportive, but he was selfishly wishing Shaun didn’t have to go, or that Zach and Cody could tag along.
It helped that Zach and Cody had a routine to follow, that school and homework and art projects still had to be done, that Cicero still had to be walked, that Cody had a birthday party to attend on Saturday afternoon. The difference was that instead of Shaun being home every night for dinner, Zach and Cody were mostly eating take out and waiting for Shaun’s phone calls. He called to check in with Cody, to hear about his day and tell him good night, and Zach tried not to whine about missing Shaun when it was his turn to talk.
