Summary
There had been an accident.
Ed and Stede were painting the bedroom again, this time Stede was sure the color they chose was the right one, the one that would tie it all together for sure. And Ed had been good-naturedly ribbing him, as they did, about maybe the lavender being too bright. They had been laughing and Ed had had a point to make, a point he of course had to make by gesturing emphatically with his brush, the brush he had recently dipped in the bucket. And, of course, paint flew everywhere.
“Oh, shit,” Ed had said absently, trying to assess the immediate damage to the floor and their furniture. “Sorry, love, this is a bit of a mess, hope you like some lavender on the bed, oops.” And he laughed, back still turned to Stede. This kind of thing tended to happen when they renovated together, really.
And he didn't notice. He didn't notice that paint had splattered all over Stede's face and shirt. Until he turned and Stede was just standing there covered, not saying anything.

A tiny little accident and the release of some big emotions. Such is life.

Summary
The first chords to Lady Gaga’s Bad Romance make the club’s floor shake as an anticipatory chill runs across the crowd dutifully pulling out their money from wherever it is stored. Everyone is staring at the stage with the reverence shown to a deity. It's a bit disturbing.
The stage gets covered in smoke way too quickly, which only seems to rile everyone up further. Steve thinks about going to the back, but that’s when a silhouette emerges and the lights come on illuminating Cherry Bomb in all her glory. She's standing at center stage, muscular thighs shining under the lights, electrifying eyes piercing right through Steve’s very soul.
Steve gets it. He gets it immediately.
This is a goddess.

Summary
“Do you know why I fell in love with you?” he asks a while later, turning Steve’s attention away from Bob Seger’s voice floating out of the closed front door.
Steve feels his eyebrows reaching his hairline because getting Billy Hargrove to be this open about anything ever, willingly, takes weeks’ worth of work and deflection. Billy likes to keep what's his very close to home. So it can’t be taken away from him, Steve likes to think, when he’s not feeling frustrated about it. If Billy wants him to know this now, he must have his reasons, even when he’s already said so much more than most nights.
“Are you implying it was something other than my dashing looks, silky hair, and amazing ass?” Steve says around a smile, giving Billy an out if he feels like taking it.

Billy is drunk and in love, Steve is very patient, everyone has deep feelings coming out of nowhere. That's marriage, babey!

Summary
Steve can’t make the world feel safe again. Not for himself and not for Billy. But he can bring the sunshine in and hope it reminds Billy that there are still things for him out there. That there will always be a place for him beside Steve, but also in the world where there’s heat, music and laughter. And that it’s all his for the taking. Just waiting for him to rediscover the mundane glories of being alive. How there’s still joy to be felt, how Steve still wants to share it all with him.

Summary
"Who the fuck are you?" Billy snarls but nonetheless slows down his breathing. "And it's Billy, don't fucking call me that."
Whoever it is only chuckles, which does the job of irritating Billy further. He might not be sure if he has a body, but he very much fucking knows he hates being condescended to. This guy can choke.
"Well, Billy," says the guy, and now that Billy's vision is coming back, he can identify a veritable mane of brown hair and even bigger brown eyes. "Is that any way to talk to your husband?"

Billy's appendix burst and Steve's his nurse, nonsense ensues.

Summary
Once, belied by the notion of a city teeming with other Russians, he spent the day going from bakery to bakery in New York City, trying to find a cake that would even come close. It was the dead of winter, and he blamed any teariness on the way the wind whipped at his face. He ignored texts from everyone but Shane.

Summary
“Jackie?” Shane’s question cuts through the silence, and Jackie winces at the frantic rasp of his voice.
“Right here, honey.” She tries to keep her voice light, wrapping her hand around Hayden’s wrist and meeting his worried gaze over the phone. “What’s going on?”
“I need your help.” Shane croaks out. “They called, but they won’t - I need to know if he’s okay, but they won’t tell me.” The end of his sentence disappears in something so close to a sob it makes something in Jackie’s chest freeze over.
