    Summary

    He'd spent the entire seven hour flight from San Jose to Boston rehearsing what he'd wanted to say. Had gone over every word, repeating it in his head, until he'd had it memorized. Because this was fucking important and he couldn't afford to screw this up.

    Which was precisely why Will looked right up into those stupidly soulful brown eyes, psyched himself up to start his speech, and said: "I think we should get married."

    Chuckie froze in place. "I'm sorry, I thought you just fucking told me you wanted to get married."

     

    (Takes place in May of 2004, when same-sex marriage became legal in Massachusetts.)

    Summary

    “I could help you out.” Bradley ended up blurting out, regretting the words before they were even out of his mouth all the way.

    Jake glanced up at him, eyes widened slightly, eyebrows closer to his hairline than Bradley’s ever seen them. The room was silent for longer than Bradley would have liked and he was just about to spout out an apology and high tail it out of there. “Didn’t think you liked me that way, Bradshaw.”

    When Heather told Robby she was breaking up with him, it wasn’t a surprise. Robby’d been waiting for that particular shoe to drop for weeks.

    Summary

    Jake slightly furrows his brows in reaction to the loud slam of the door, but any and all noise of the building quickly becomes very difficult to focus on.

    One, because the locked door of the single-occupancy bathroom muffles all sounds of background music, clinking glasses, and happy drinkers.

    And two, because Rooster’s suddenly crowding into his space, and Jake finds it considerably harder to think coherently with Rooster’s hands pushing into his shoulders as his lips skim over his.

    It could also be the alcohol, contributing to his growing loss of rationality. But Jake also kind of likes the way that Rooster tastes like beer.

    So, whatever, it takes a suicide mission for them to act civil.

    It takes three drinks for them to act like a lot more.

    Summary

    Jake spotted his target as soon as he walked into the bar.

    Natasha’s description had been brief—mustache, loud shirt—but it was enough for Jake to zero in on the man in question. He was holding court in the corner, talking to a pair of guys and gesturing expansively with the hand that wasn’t curled around his beer.

    Jake smoothed a hand over his hair, straightened his shoulders, and after a brief moment of consideration, undid one more button on his shirt. He could not wait to teach this motherfucker a lesson.

    Anyone who messed with Nat could get fucked.
