Summary
The man sways in the crowd, head nodding to either side, eyes half-lidded and dazed, pink lips slightly parted. His fingertips graze along his abdomen slowly as he feels himself up and down, moving wildly. His blond curls have plastered to his forehead, the splotch of pink above his eyebrow covered in iridescent like sweat. He dips his head back, teeth bared to the sky, and Adam’s apple bobbing up and down as he gulps up air.

Is love at first sight real?

or
Eddie meets Buck at a nightclub and finds his life forever changed.
