Summary
Years on from Bandee, part of him was still scared of how Ryan made him feel. The things he made him want. Maybe he'd never be able to let go of that fear entirely, ruined by what they'd been through in more ways than a murderous shadow. But tonight there was an ache inside of him like a bruise and Naim needed desperately for it to be pressed.
Naim and Ryan go to a friend's birthday, and Naim lets himself want without fear.

He can’t seem to reconcile the vicious, angry sneer he saw on Ryan’s face with the sweet way he sometimes smiles into kisses, or even with the cocksure, arrogant smirk he sometimes wears that makes Naim feel both annoyed and warm all over.
Naim and Ryan talk about the Hunter thing.

In reality, it could have been any number of people. His parents, or the neighbors, or a little girl walking her dog on by. Anyone would stop to watch two boys throwing stones at one another.

Summary
There is something impossible and bright growing in Naim’s chest, like someone has reached inside him and shone a light in him, warm and all consuming. Ryan is dazzling, pink cheeked and white gold in the light, run down converse and a soft mouth, his calloused hand in Naim’s.
A series of firsts.

Summary
“I think people underestimate how stupid the human brain really is. It’s all very simple, the way we work. Remarkably so, honestly. If something causes us pain, our brain tells us to avoid it. Fear is one of the most singularly powerful motivators for survival we possess.”
Cardboard bites into Naim's palm. Fingers open, then close, crumpling it smaller and smaller, the coffee soaking between his fingers where the bloated paper releases it.
"So what happens when someone betrays you so thoroughly? How does your brain decide to process that? You’re fighting back against your own base instinct.”
