Summary
The man moves and Edward watches the shift of his muscles as he stands. A whisper of wind caresses and spills his hair. His face is chiseled by perfection yet there was a breath of so much innocence. It was enough to knock the wind out of Edward because at the moment this unknown man…was the most beautiful thing he’d ever seen.
He could recall many times in his life when he’d been physically frightened. But this moment was different: he was terrified. Afraid for his heart.
Or...
Edward wants what he can’t have and Jacob just wants.

Summary
“Come over tonight?” Mike whispered into his flip phone, his hand cupped tightly over the speaker. He lay on his side beneath navy blue covers, knees drawn up, heart hammering as he listened for footsteps in the hallway. He crossed his fingers under the blanket like it might help. “Please?”
He winced the second the word left his mouth. God, he sounded needy.
A soft laugh crackled through the line. “Of course I’m coming over,” Will said, his voice warm and unmistakably amused, like he could picture Mike exactly as he was—curled up in bed, chewing on his lip, trying not to be heard.
Mike’s mouth split into a grin before he could stop it. He pressed the phone closer to his ear.
“Great,” he said, lowering his voice even more. “Just—be careful climbing over the garage this time, okay? My dad would actually fucking kill you if he caught you out there.”
“When have I ever gotten caught?” Will shot back, teasing, confident.
Mike snorted quietly. “Are you serious? Remember when—”
“Yeah, yeah, whatever,” Will cut in, laughing now. “I’ll be there by midnight.”
“You better be.” Mike teased.
“Fuck off,” Will said fondly.
Mike smiled so hard his cheeks hurt. “See you.”
