“Come on, man, are you going to be in there all night?” asked Steve from the bed in their hotel room.
“Almost done,” John replied from the bathroom, “Just trying to get everything exactly right…”
“All right,” said Steve, “I mean, it’s not like it has to be completely perfect. As long as – Oh my god! You look just like him!”
John stepped out of the bathroom and leaned against the wall.
“Think this’ll work?” he asked.
“Wow!” said Steve, running up to him, “Just… wow! I would swear to god that Jason was standing in front of me right now if I didn’t know it was really you. What about your voice though?”
“Oh yeah,” said John, clearing his throat, “This better?”
“That’s his voice!” said Steve, giving John a kiss, “That’s exactly it! Oh, wow, John. I can’t thank you enough for this!”
“Well, I know that this was supposed to be a very special trip for you and Jason, and it really sucks that he decided to break up with you right before it was supposed to happen,” said John, “And the truth is, I’m really glad that I’m the one who gets to spend it with you instead.”
“I am, too,” smiled Steve, “And you know what? Even though you look like Jason now, knowing that it’s actually my best friend in the world inside of there makes you an even better than the original!”
