    Summary

    “I got an acceptance letter today,” Ricky says softly, when the jets begin to slow.

    Gyuvin inhales through his nose. Ice forms in the pit of his stomach, steaming against the warm water.

    “Really?”

    “Yeah. Otis. Los Angeles.”

    “That’s… fuck. Ricky. That’s amazing.”

    It is amazing. So amazing, he can almost sound like he means it.

    or: the bittersweetness of summer flings, hot tub jets, and diverging paths.

    Summary

    “Which one is it?” Jay asks, so solemnly Jake has no idea whether to laugh or worry.

    “Huh?”

    “There are two people sitting at thirteen. Which one is the guy you were talking about?”

    “The older one?” Jake stammers. “On the left.” Unhelpfully, he holds up the glass of soda. “He got the coke.”

    Just as abruptly as it arrived, all the tension drains from Jay’s expression. “Oh, good. Because I call dibs on the other one.”

    Summary

    “When we kiss—“

    “Hold up,” Hao frowns. “‘When’? Why would we kiss?”

    Hanbin blinks. “Because couples kiss all the time? Wouldn’t it be suspicious for Taerae to never see us kiss?”

    By the heavens, the kid’s got a point. Smart boy. “Okay, sure. If—”

    “When.”

    “—we kiss, we should probably save it as a last resort. Like, a make it or break it type of situation where Taerae and Matthew are really suspicious of us.”

    For some reason, Hanbin doesn’t seem too pleased by that idea, his mouth puckered in a sad little pout. Why he would be sad though, is beyond Hao.

    “What was your question?” Hao prompts, tempted to reach over and smooth the furrow of Hanbin’s knit brow with his fingers.

    Like magic, Hanbin perks up and his eyes glitter with the glory of a sky full of stars. “Can I use tongue?”

    Or, Hao lies to his best friend that he has a boyfriend. Thankfully Sung Hanbin is more than happy to go along with the charade, but why are his eyes so damn sparkly, why is he so warm all the time, and why does he keep asking if they can kiss with tongue?

    Summary

    What Ricky knows: The way he wants Hao is a feeling he can’t domesticate, clawing at his insides like a rabid animal. It’s love, and that's worship. It's desire, and that's a sin.

    What Ricky doesn’t know: Gyuvin burns just to keep him warm.

    Or; Hao shines bright enough that it blinds Ricky to anything and anyone else, including Gyuvin.
