Written as part of Kris 'n' Good Books' 'choose your own m/m story' challenge. This is now hosted by Goodreads' M/M Romance Group.
The story prompts for the author were:
the setting ~ a building earmarked for demolition
some background to one of the main protags ~ one is sucked in to doing a favour for a friend
another character/s ~ a lavender-haired matron in a twin set and pearls, who is constantly pinching butts
a conflict ~ one has a panic attack whenever he sees red M&Ms
an object/phrase to be mentioned in the story somewhere ~ a split trouser seam revealling a pink, lace g-string
