    --

    Summary

    During his second year at university, Bradley found himself with no room or a place to live. Venting to his co-worker, a handsome customer overheard his problems and offered him a sweet deal: to stay at his flat in exchange for looking out for his cat. But why did his new landlord have to be a naval aviator of all things? Couldn't he just be a regular rich kid?

    Summary

    “We should stay here forever”, Bradley told him last summer while flipping a pancake. He was wearing a checkered red-white apron and whistling Blondie’s greatest hits. The kitchen smelled of pancakes and freshly brewed coffee. It was all so ridiculously domestic and Jake felt butterflies erupt in his stomach when Bradley looked into his eyes and smiled softly.

    “Here as in your kitchen?” Jake asked just to be difficult. His father would have scolded him for asking stupid questions but Bradley was not his father. He was nothing like him. Sometimes Jake thought that he was an angel sent by God to remind him of His divine love and forgiveness, even though Jake often felt like he didn’t deserve them. He rubbed the cross pendant hanging from the gold chain around his neck and thought, The Father, the Son and the Holy Spirit. Amen.

    Summary

    Rooster pitches down, too steep and too fast, daring Maverick to follow. Mav matches him, foot for foot, and they hurtle down, spiraling and twisting around each other in a deadly dance.

    “What’s past is past,” Maverick says, voice g-strained. “Pull up, Rooster.”

    To hell with you, Rooster thinks, and even he doesn’t know how literally he means it.

    or

    It takes Rooster and Hangman ten years after they meet at flight school to get their shit together. It takes longer than that, a suicide run of a mission, Maverick's god-and-logic defying luck, and Iceman's indomitable common sense to get him and Maverick to sit down and talk.
