    Summary

    Kevin leans in, so close Jean can see the kaleidoscope of green in his eyes. Lighter, darker, with small brown spots Jean noticed in the sunlight once and has been trying not to obsess over ever since. He stops just a breath away when his nose brushes against Jean’s, very softly, very devastatingly. 

    He makes a soft hm sound like he’s solving a puzzle of how to proceed. 

    "Tilt your head," Jean hints, tapping his index finger to Kevin’s jaw. He could do it himself—he has thought of the mechanics often enough to almost know what to do—but he can’t let go of the idea of having Kevin be the one to make the first move. If this insanity is to happen, if Kevin wants to break yet another rule just because he can, Jean wants to forever hold the knowledge that it was Kevin who kissed him first. 

    Kevin obeys, and it brings them even closer, just a little tilt of the chin away.  

    or, Kevin has a very, very bad idea.

    Summary

    After returning from rehab, Kevin thinks that things are bound to turn around for him. He's sober, he's in therapy, but more than that, he's determined to win the championships to prove just how much better he's faring. Things get complicated when Jean gets traded to his team and old wounds begin to bleed anew.

    Summary

    "Would you come if it were a request and not an order anyway?"

    If he’d asked, truly asked, I want to see you topped with please, Jean would have cursed him out and jumped on the first plane to South Carolina. And perhaps I guess you could come here is not a stern come to Palmetto that it could have been, but it is not good enough, it is not what Jean wants from him. In the end that’s what’s changed the most: Jean can want things now, not as much as his heart would like to, but just enough to expect something honest from Kevin.

    Jean brushes his fingers over the ridiculous print of a beret on his brand new sheets and asks, "Is there even a difference in your vocabulary between those two?"

    "Is there for you?" Kevin retorts.

    or, Jean Moreau agrees to visit Palmetto during winter break. It goes about as well as you might expect.
