Summary: Two drabbles about Anthony and Ben and Anthony's wish to be positive, exploring how each man feels about the situation and their wishes in regards to what happened between them as well as what didn't.





	1. The Bug Chaser

**A/N: **I just watched 4x10 and these drabbles came to mind, enjoy.

**Disclaimer:** I don't own Queer as Folk.

**Part One  
The Bug Chaser**

He doesn't understand. He either can't or he won't, but, either way, it's a hindrance. Can't he see that I need this? That I need the liberation it will bring? And didn't I say that getting it from him would be perfect for me because I so want to be him?

But, still, he refuses. Still, he doesn't understand.

It pains me to have to resort to desperate measures, to have to stoop to sleeping with strangers to reach my freedom. But he made his choice and there is nothing I can do.

I only wish that he would understand.


	2. The Gift Giver

**Part Two  
The Gift Giver**

He doesn't understand. He _can't_ understand. There is no way I can explain to him what it's like to live with this. No book, no lecture can prepare him for the hell that comes with this disease.

I'm one of the lucky ones, he doesn't seem to realize that.

He thinks this is some sort of blessing, a form of liberation, and I'm scared for him. I can't make him listen, I can't make him understand, and I can't even stop him.

He thinks that I'd be giving him a gift, I know that it'll only ever be a curse.
