    Summary

    For as long as Macklin celebrini could remember, his life orbited around hockey. Around the discipline that came with it, the strain he felt build with every bad game, but also the sincere joy he felt every time he stepped out on the ice. It was always there, his training and passion carving the way for him to lead his team to victory. He knew this to be true from the time he first picked up a stick, to his time at Boston University, and now on the San Jose Sharks.

    But he couldn’t shake the deep seated feeling that something wasn’t right, his shoulders shook a little more with every game, his hands felt like they clenched into permanent fists. With every game came more issues, more things he did wrong, more passes he didn’t make, and more phone calls from the one person he wants to make proud, picking out every single problem with his gameplay.

    Rick Celebrini had always been this way, couch first, father dead last. And that fact never made it not sting when Macklin was so desperately seeking his father’s approval, just to fall short every single time. And it hurt, it began to chip away at his body, corroding the bone beneath his flesh, shaping his mindset for the next game that he knew would never be better.

    Summary

    You don't deserve it. You don't deserve any of it, Wylan thought. He had to act fast : absorb as much of Jesper's affection into his system as he possibly could, at the risk of overdosing; bask in every ounce of it, appreciate each second of it because this had a clear expiration date. Soon enough, Jesper would find out how defective he was; how big of a fraud he was… Not some clever, streetwise Barrel boy; not any self-made man like Kaz ; just a rich kid who had made it that far from dumb luck.

    Summary

    “–I suppose there aren’t a lot of other options. Would you… do you think…” He bit his lip and smiled, his eyes giving Wylan that hopeful, pleading look he was so desperately good at. And Ghezen, Wylan would do anything for Jesper on a normal day, never mind when he sent that look Wylan’s way.

    “You really think people would believe we’re a couple?” Wylan squeaked before he could think of a coherent response. The corner of Jes’s mouth twitched in a smirk.

    “Come on, Wy, I know I’m not your usual type, but I can’t be that bad, can I?” He winked and Wylan surely turned even pinker. He bided a long moment to conjure a response by taking a deep pull of the dregs of his coffee. Jesper supposedly not being Wylan’s type was far from the problem.

    Jesper's behind on rent, but for his bookshop to be featured in a local business magazine, it has to be owned and run by a couple. Wylan's flower shop is just next door.

    Summary

    “Hey, so why was your stuff here in the first place?”

    At an instant, Wylan’s bright smile turns precarious. It’s not so much anything to do with his expression as it is the sudden tense in posture, the way he so obviously tries to look unbothered.

    Jesper grimaces, just as instantly. “You don’t have to–”

    “It’s nothing. It was part of a treatment this ‘doctor’ my father called had, for my reading…” Wylan makes a small, unspecific gesture with an awkward smile. The silence that hangs is thick.

    A discovery of a locked-away box of Wylan’s childhood belongings stirs up an argument between Jesper and Wylan, and then a conversation—but not before bringing up a few memories too.
