Summary
He tries not to overthink, tries not to spiral into worst case scenarios or get caught in emotional quagmires from which he can’t see a way out, but he can’t seem to help himself. Maybe it’s because he’s in love with him.
(It’s because he’s in love with him.)

Summary
He likes the idea of oversleeping with somebody like him, a body like him, and running late for work together, coffee together, waking up rough on the train together. He wonders at it, happily, loosely, their fully fledged love story snatched out of thin air and left to float through his head, a life without roots.
Five beds that aren't Patrick's (and one that's mostly David's).

Summary
He’s befuddled by this place, all chintz and mahogany and mystery, but he knows the pattern in the creaks on the floorboard outside Patrick’s bedroom, and how to work the remote for the television, and the loud whirr of the old oven, and where the tea towels are kept. He supposes he’s been playing house too. He supposes this is being in love.

Summary
He’ll know he shouldn’t have walked home, shouldn’t have stumbled through the back streets of the city for hours on end, arrived back at the hotel with the sun. He’ll know he should have had better friends, will have better friends, one day, when he’s older.
But he’s just a kid.
David walks home.

Summary
The pollen bleeds bright orange against his pink skin, like a birthmark, like he’s being made new, his first birthday on his thirtieth, and he has to learn every inch of himself again, and he doesn’t know where to start. God, he wants David. David would know where to start.
Long showers after Patrick's surprise party.
