Summary
It turns out Bradley is an inveterate cuddler.
He seeks out Jake wherever he is—sleeping, reading, doing odds and ends around the house—and wraps his huge, overwarm body around him. He’s like a particularly persistent octopus, winding his limbs around Jake and nuzzling at his neck. Jake groans long-sufferingly and snarks each and every time it happens, but secretly he can’t get enough of it.
(In which Jake is still often freezing and Bradley, his human furnace boyfriend, feels morally obliged to do something about it at all times.)
A series of slice of life snippets post the events of low key in love, not necessarily in chronological order.

Summary
Bradley runs warm by nature, always has. Today, half an hour after exercise, he’s practically a radiator. He figures he can be generous enough to share the surplus heat rather than suffer through the nuisance of watching Seresin gradually edge closer to hypothermia.
(In which Hangman is often freezing and Bradley, who is a human furnace, notices and starts feeling begrudgingly obliged to do something about it.)

Summary
“You’re good with your hands,” a voice drawls close enough that Bradley feels warm air against his neck. It sends goosebumps down his arms.
He turns and ends up mashing completely the wrong chord when his eyes lock with the light green eyes of the guy he’s been trying not to ogle all night.
—
When Bradley was turned down by the Naval Academy he became an aeronautical engineer instead. Now he’s been called in to help the US Navy with a Top Secret mission that’s about to get a whole lot more complicated when he meets the pilots who will be flying it.

Summary
Jake should have known Bradley was going to be here. Even with the scant details he was given when they shipped him to North Island he should have guessed that he wouldn’t be flying solo. Looks like they’ve brought in the best of the best, and that was always going to include Rooster.

Summary
“You look really good like this.”
Jake’s hands stilled for half a second. He looked up at Bradley, at the way his big brown eyes sparkled with mischief, at the familiar line of his mouth when he smiled like that. God, he loved this man. “Yeah?”
“Yeah,” Bradley said, completely sincere. “I told you before. You cooking? Sexy as fuck. I’ve got the best seat in the house.”
Jake remembered the night Bradley was referring to. Remembered the way Bradley had admitted it, like a confession he hadn’t meant to let slip out. Remembered how Jake had woken up the next morning and made breakfast wearing only an apron just to see the look on Bradley’s face again.
He cleared his throat and tipped the dried chiles into the pot. “Flattery will not get you out of doing dishes.”
Bradley gasped, holding a hand to his chest. “I’d never!”

Or, the one where cooking is a love language.

Summary
“Ron? Ro—-what the hell happened? Are you okay?”
To be honest, Slider wasn’t sure. He distantly felt his pilot’s hands on his shoulders as Tom sat him up to lean against the bed.
“Ron? Talk to me, man, c’mon—”
“I—-” Ron shut his eyes against a sudden wave of dizziness. Maybe that’s what happened. “M dizzy, Tommy—”

Summary
“What’s goin’ on?” Jake asks, jabbing his fingers hard enough into Coyote’s ribs to prompt an inelegant yelp and open up enough space for him to jam his head into the conspiratorial knot of their friends.
“Trying to figure out the odds of Bradshaw being down to shave off the mustache for two hundred dollars,” Nat tells him, helpfully; if Bradley didn’t know better, he’d swear there was a note of mischief in her voice.
Jake visibly balks.
“Absolutely not,” he says, in a horrified tone.
“That’s what I said,” Fanboy says, over-serious. “No way he’s doing it for less than four hundred.”
or; Jake's always pretend to hate Bradley's mustache. Bradley's pretty sure he can prove otherwise.

Summary
“What do you mean, they’re gone?”
“We can’t—we haven’t been able to locate the lieutenants, sir. Search and rescue is going to make another pass but we have been unable to find them,” the sailor tried to explain.
“They—what about the dye or their beacons? They were barely 300 yards off the shore when they went in,” Viper argued.
“The beacons appear to have malfunctioned, or, at least, three of them have. The one beacon never activated at all.”
“And the dye?” Jester persevered.
“At this point, it’s been hours, sir. The dye will be present but so diluted and dispersed it won’t be a very accurate location tool, especially as the sun starts getting lower in the sky.”
The two Top Gun instructors exchanged dark looks before turning back to the serviceman in front of them.

Summary
Maverick stretched his shoulder as much as he could before a whine started to tear through his throat. It ached something awful.
Some nights it even kept him up—or woke him up. Those were the worst nights.
He’d finally sink into a somewhat exhausted sleep and inevitably roll in a direction that left him waking up in absolute agony.
Part of Mav, the dark, utterly lost part, believed he deserved whatever this pain was. He’d killed Goose—why shouldn’t he be in agony? Hell— God knew his chest felt like it was being ripped in half some days. Those days when all he could think about was clinging to Nick’s too still form—when all he could feel was cold and wet—

Summary
Nick was floating motionless in a mess of parachute lines and canopy, making no effort to free himself as crimson tinged the neon green dye around him.
“Nick!” He screamed, swimming to his RIO’s side, fear overwhelming him as he saw the blood pouring from underneath Goose’s helmet. Mav grabbed his harness, shaking him in an attempt to rouse him before pulling his own glove off with his teeth. With a trembling hand, he reached for Nick’s neck, searching desperately for a pulse.
Nothing.
There was nothing.
“NICK—“ he broke off with an animalistic scream, tears streaming down his face as he clung to Nick’s flight suit, begging anyone to bring back the only person who’d ever really cared. To bring back the most important person in his life—
“Please—please—“

Summary
“Lieutenant Bradley Peter Bradshaw, receiving his wings from Admiral Thomas Kazansky.”
Bradley’s footsteps pause on their ascent of the steps across the stage from where Ice makes his way to the stage. Keeping his eyes set firmly on the young man across from him. Ice steps forward, reaching for the golden wings, the last set remaining, and gathers it into his palm. Cradles them as if they were the rarest substance on earth.
The sight of Bradley could render their worth meaningless for all he cares.
That’s his boy.
><><><><><><><><><><><
Or. Seven years since Bradley walked out of his and Pete's life, Admiral Kazansky can't bear a stranger being the ones to pin Bradley's wings.

Goose lives AU: Going back to 1986 - What happened when Nick woke up after the accident? Fluff and angst of course!

Her smile dropped a little as she looked at Tom, eyes flickering between the three men. Slowly, she asked, ‘is he okay?’
Pete shrugged, but he didn’t make any movement to respond fully. He did, however, quirk his head, asking for her to continue.
