All Change
Synopsis
Years ago, Max asked Simon out, who turned him down. The two have remained friends, and get on the same train after seeing mates from university. Their conversation reveals that Max has gone onto have a thriving career and adopt children with his husband, whereas Simon is single and less successful.
Eventually, Simon confesses his belief that if he had said yes, all those years ago, he and Max would still be together now. Max admits that he thinks the same, and asks Simon why he didn’t say yes. Simon replies that he was scared by how Max made him feel, but kept this a secret, assuming someone as confident as Max would never understand. Max says that he was also scared, but that that was why he asked Simon out, reasoning “what’s the point of dating someone who doesn’t give you butterflies?”
A shocked Simon is left pondering this as Max gets off at his station. The train leaves and enters a tunnel, plunging Simon – now alone – into darkness.
