Summary
"We didn't invite you to sit," Andy said pointedly to the man who had trailed in after Joe.

Joe sighed internally, while trying to maintain an easy smile and his affable exterior. "Sorry about him. We'll go."

Summary
Joe is one of those people, Nicky realizes, who seems to have unlocked the secret that beautiful people have: how to carry themselves, how to exude. Nicky doesn't dislike his own looks -- yes, during his teenage years he'd been self-conscious of his awkwardly big hands and his inescapable nose, especially whenever starting over in a new place -- but as he's grown into adulthood, it's all evened out into an appearance he's more or less satisfied with. But he's never mastered that next-level, head-turning attractiveness that Joe has.
Or: Five times Nicky thinks Joe is one of the most beautiful men to walk the earth, and one time Joe looks objectively awful and truly wins Nicky's heart.Bookmarked by Crys3

Summary
In which Nicky joins a queer football club, makes some new friends, and offers to help Joe piss off his ex by pretending to be his new boyfriend. This is a very reasonable scheme that will definitely not lead to any feelings whatsoever.
