Summary
“How refreshing!” Gale sneers. “A straight man who doesn't believe in marriage.”
“I literally just told you that I’m not straight,” John says too loudly, drawing the attention of everyone else in the cafe.
“Then why are you like this?!” Gale begs.
+++
Gale is a serial best man who spends his whole life planning weddings for other people. John is a cynical wedding columnist who thinks that love is a scam. This gives them a lot to talk about.

Summary
John nuzzles behind Gale’s ear to scent him, to do what little gestures he’s allowed under the stifling constraints of military red tape. Holds him while he still can, doesn’t think about flak or fire or Duval’s blood on his hands when his love is here, warm and breathing, keeping him from fading in the dark.

Summary
John “Bucky” Egan has everything a man is supposed to want. Former UK military major turned international celebrity. Ten record-breaking albums. A family and friends that loves him. A reputation for generosity that follows him through every career he’s had. Handsome. Respectable. Illegal free will. Loud. What more could he possibly want?
Gale “you gave me your name?” Cleven.
They were boys when they met. Dragged to Brown University by scholarships and stubborn faith. Best friends, inseparable in that impossible, private way. They knew each other before the lights, before the cameras, before the world learned their faces. Lovers by their final college years. Devoted. Healthy. Ridiculously in love. Obsessively in love.
Ten years later Gale is a world-famous actor, polished and unreachable. John's love for him never died. Time didn’t soften it. It only made his yearning louder. So what does he do?
He lingers. He circles. He makes himself impossible to ignore. He releases an album so painfully specific it borders on confession. He lets the world listen even if he only wants one pair of eyes to recognize it.
Because if Gale won’t look back on purpose,
John will try to make him look.Bookmarked by AustinButlerfan

Summary
Those are the times Gale feels like a younger sibling. Other times, he— doesn't, and there really isn’t any one word or phrase that encapsulates how he feels then.
Technically he's known John for almost his entire life. Hard not to put someone like that on a pedestal.
-- Gale has nowhere to go, except maybe his ex-best friend's older brother's place
