Summary
Dennis was ten years old, and all he had ever known was Broken Bow, Nebraska until he had been shipped all the way to rural Pennsylvania to repent.
Because Dennis had done something bad. Something really bad. And now he must earn forgiveness. But what wouldn't he do to see his Ma again? Just one time. To show her how hard he was trying.
So he had jumped. Hoping that she would come if he was injured. Nothing too bad, just enough for her to come. But it had been too high. And now he was flying in a helicopter to the nearest hospital, scared for his life, and so very scared to end up in Hell.
Unbeknownst to him, he was about to meet Dr. Robby. A tall man with hands that could heal. And perhaps, with his husband Jack, they could show him another path to life, one much kinder, one that showed Dennis what unconditional love was.
The fingers on Dennis’ head were now gently brushing his misbehaving hair, and the hand on his own hand had been joined by another one, encasing it on both sides.
His God was full of shit, Dennis decided. Because hands that loved like this couldn't belong to the damned. No, they were the hands of angels.Bookmarked by Ailerose

Summary
Sometimes, very late at night, lying only a wall away from one of his closest friends, he wonders what it would be like to tell someone. Maybe it’s finally time to let someone in on even the deepest parts of himself. He falls asleep to the idea, letting the concept play out in a way that isn’t as tragic as he expects it to be in reality. Disappointment engulfs him in the morning when he knows he won’t do it anyway.
..
Dennis Whitaker was sent away to a wilderness therapy camp when he was sixteen. He's only coming to terms with it twelve years later.

Summary
Being wanted isn’t a terrible thing, especially considering Dennis has never really been pursued before. It doesn’t feel uncomfortable. He just doesn’t know what he’s supposed to do when a nice young woman inevitably asks him out to lunch.
Apologize to her because she’s not a man that’s twice his age?
Having a secret admirer is a double-edged sword.

Summary
Dennis always figured he would die in Nebraska; the place he loathed, and missed, and begrudgingly loved. Would he still go to heaven if he was buried in Pittsburgh?
OR: In which Dennis never finds the abandoned wing of the hospital, so Trinity never finds out he is homeless, Abbot is a part of the street team, and Robby is constantly worried.
