Summary
Though Ronan could not be called well-behaved, he was at his most serious and restrained when he felt like God was watching. What a thrill it was, then, to have him panting and hard in the chapel, where God or anyone else might see.
"You do get off on this," Adam said, barely a whisper. "That's hot, Ronan."
The specifics of desire had never brought Adam much trouble, whether it was girls, boys, whatever. But he was discovering that the ways in which he wanted Ronan often filled him with an unfamiliar shame. He'd found that he did not simply want Ronan in ways that seemed tender or loving. He also wanted him in ways that scared him, that would probably scare Ronan.
or: The summer before he leaves for college, Adam starts going to Mass. Ronan avoids an old ghost. They discover a shared interest.

Summary
"I like it," Adam said. He threaded his hand through Ronan's hair. Once he had a good grip, he tugged.
Ronan lurched in Adam's lap, eyes closing as his head tipped back. "Fuck."
He watched Ronan's face pinken, nearly as pink as his mouth. Adam could only think of Ronan's clothes coming off, the rest of his body turning that same shade. A grin spread across his face.
"I really like it," he said.
or: After stopping the apocalypse, Ronan and Adam spend the night in Boston. Adam discovers that Ronan's hair grew while he slept. They make up for lost time.

Summary
It was simple. Ronan didn't like Adam living somewhere that wasn't the Barns, or St. Agnes, or Ronan's car or Ronan's bed. Homes that were within Ronan's reach, in one way or another.
Adam had looked two-toned all summer, studying glossy Harvard brochures and less glossy tuition and fee statements, oscillating between pre-disappointed and anticipatory. Suspended in something—in what, Ronan hadn't really known.
"I'm trying to be less pessimistic," Adam had said repeatedly. Something about embarking on a new chapter of his life.
He never smiled as he said it, and it always sounded like a lie, the kind that charmed Ronan in its familiar cynicism. Ronan felt like he was more honest in his fear of what came next. That was very different from speaking it aloud.

or: Ronan helps Adam move into his dorm.

Summary
Adam shifts his weight so that he's pressed against Ronan's ass, fingers steadily moving inside him, and lifts one of Ronan's hands off his back to kiss his palm.
"That's my move," Ronan says breathily, but Adam just kisses each finger and the back of his hand, too. He goes lower to kiss the inside of Ronan's wrist, and his tongue darts out to lick a wet, warm trail over his scars.
Ronan feels his heart thump hard as though it's somewhere outside himself. It's almost like when he comes back from dreaming, hovering above himself and detached from the world, until Adam's fingers slam inside him to bring him back and he lets out a shaky moan.
Adam's teeth graze the edge of a raised slice and Ronan's hips jerk up instinctively. Adam huffs and firmly pins him down with a knee over his thigh. "Stay still," he says gently, but Ronan hears the order underneath. "You're being good for me."- Language:
