    Summary

    With a quick wipe of his palm across the material of his jeans, the sweat that had gathered there on Leon’s hands was erased and he nodded as Chris set them down some drinks, not missing the way that the older man’s eyes caught his and it conjured images of the bar they’d last met at. It also conjured images of Chris’ furious face inches above his as Rebecca stood awkwardly to the side of them. He squeezed his hand around the glass bottle of his beer and masked the sudden onset of nervousness with a sip, sighing a little when Chris merely just smiled weakly back at him.

    Perhaps they were really past all their previous unpleasantness.

    ---

    After Arias was dead, what more could Leon and Chris do but fall into a strange familiarity with each other.

     A prequel to Is Now Done & Home Again, Then but can be read as a standalone!

    Summary

    In the dead space between one breath and the next, he had a revelation, or maybe it was just giving in. It was as if Nix had walked up, looked him in the eye and said gently, ‘Every one deserves to be happy, Dick. Even you.’

    Summary

    Five things Nix loves about Dick, and one thing Dick loves about Nix.

    Or,

    The thing about Nix, Dick is beginning to learn, is that he doesn’t love in halves. Nix loves with everything in him, and sometimes that means moving to the middle of nowhere in Pennsylvania for Dick. Sometimes it means making spaghetti with him because Dick came to New Jersey and planted tomatoes, of all things. Sometimes it means telling without saying.
