    Summary

    “Have you considered the possibility that Neil has chosen you, but believes you have not chosen him?” Renee says. "Have you ever explicitly told him what you want?”

    “Neil knows what I want,” Andrew snaps. This is not Andrew’s fault.

    “How do you know?”

    Because Neil always knows. He is as fluent in Andrew’s micro-expressions as he is in German and French. He knows which head tilts mean “go on” and which ones mean “shut up.” Without ever asking, he learned what it meant to see Andrew wearing double layers of long sleeves, or taking multiple showers in a day, and learned to hand Andrew the car keys.

    That has always been the most terrifying thing about Neil — his patience to wait, watch, listen, learn. The prospect that if Neil were given enough time, there would be no part of Andrew that was just Andrew’s anymore.

    “He has to know,” Andrew says.

    “Does he?” Renee says. “Have you ever known Neil to assume that he is wanted?”

    Five times Neil tells someone that he and Andrew aren’t dating, and one time Andrew uses his words to set the record straight.

    Summary

    Jean Valjean cherishes moments like these, tucked beneath warm covers with his most improbable bedmate nestled against his side. He feels content, cherished, settled—gifts he once could never have dreamed he might receive.

    He stretches slightly, feels the body beside his own flex and stir in return, and turns to press himself closer to his partner, lips ghosting along the whiskery curve of his jaw.

    Summary

    “Well here we are,” Oikawa says lightly, his tone not matching the stormy expression on his face. Matsukawa has always prided himself on being good at reading Oikawa and that still hasn’t changed. He knows Oikawa wouldn’t say anything like that if Hanamaki and Iwaizumi weren’t at the bar getting them more drinks, so he assumes it has to do with their disaster love lives.

    Matsukawa sighs. “I don’t think it’s normal to still be in love with our high school best friends, Oikawa.”

    Oikawa snorts in an ugly way. “Of course not, Mattsun. But here we are, still absolute fools.”

    He raises his empty pint glass towards him. “Cheers to that.”
