    Summary

    He closes his eyes. Slides his own hand up to his cheek, around slowly to the back of his neck. Gentle. If he moves all of his rings to his left hand, he can almost pretend that it’s Naim’s palm against the carotid instead.

    After, Ryan seeks him out like a bad dog.

    Or: The follow-up. Naim, Ryan, a witch hunt, and what it takes to let it go.

    Summary

    Chapter 12 is new (July 3rd)
     

    The show gave us a very romantic kiss and a beautiful montage.

    This story is about earning it.

    Set after the rink kiss, Stay With Me explores the moments between friendship and sex, between attraction and trust, between wanting and allowing yourself to be wanted.

    Featuring Garrett Graham hopelessly in love with Hannah Wells, Hannah Wells discovering that desire can feel safe, and two people who really, really don’t want the night to end. ❤️

    Summary

    “I didn’t think—it didn’t mean anything between us.”

    “And with me?” Naim’s piercing eyes urged Ryan to lay his soul bare.

    “You’re different.” Was what he settled on to not reveal his true feelings. Naim was different. He was gentle and touched Ryan as if he would break. At night he played a montage of all the different versions of Naim that he memorized over the time they spent together. Naim, with his pupils blown from the weed, regarding him lazily. Naim’s warm body under his, letting out soft whimpers whenever Ryan pressed him harder against the concrete. Naim, holding his gaze at school and at church, the same way he held their secrets between them. Naim, Naim, Naim. Only ever Naim. Ryan knew what made him happy (late night talks and baggy clothes), what scared him (a lot of things but mostly heights and stagnancy and being forgotten), what turned him on (Ryan mouthing at his neck and when he pushed his tongue past Naim’s lips).

    -------

    Ryan has lived with this curse long enough to be able to tell the entity and the real Naim apart. Or does he?

    Summary

    "I told you there was a funnel web," Ryan gasps against his mouth as Naim rolls his hips again, "because I wanted to touch you."

    Or;

    Naim and Ryan spend the night after they leave Bandee in a motel. They do some much needed talking... and kissing. Mostly kissing.
