    Summary

    The thought slapped him across the face, totally out of nowhere. Jack wasn’t really doing anything special— he was just reclined in David’s bed with his dinner on his lap, and he had a few chip crumbs on his thighs. He didn’t look any prettier than usual. He was just being Jack, staring off at the posters on the adjacent wall, probably thinking about the color composition or some artsy thing like that.

    And David was in love with him.

    With Jack. David was in love with Jack Kelly, and maybe he’d been in love with Jack Kelly for years and was just now realizing it, because of a stupid plate of quesadillas and the stupid way Jack said ‘made sure it was kosher, too’ because Jack cared about him and remembered the little things and holy shit, David was so fucking in love.

    Summary

    Everyone was in good health.

    After all, you couldn’t really call it an illness just because David Jacobs had a dull throb in his throat every time he swallowed something.

    Summary

    “What got you so panicked?” Jack reaches out to poke Dave’s temple. “Lemme in that head of— yours.” In Dave's lean-away from Jack’s jabbing finger, the light is able to catch the line of skin beneath his slightly-unbuttoned shirt. It's just enough to make visible the speckled, rosening, clear-as-day outline of teeth on Dave’s lower neck.

    “I give you all my ideas already,” Davey answers, fully oblivious to the realization Jack is battling against. “You can’t be any more in my head,” which would be a real flattering statement, if he’d said it any time but now, Jack thinks. Jack thinks, maybe it’s for the best he’s not in Dave’s head, because he’s not sure he can handle the full truth of the situation, right now. “Look, it doesn’t matter. You’re coming for dinner, right?”

    “Nah,” says Jack, not feeling the slightest bit hungry anymore. “I got someplace to be.”

    Davey is popular. Jack is jealous.

    Summary

    Davey wasn’t quite sure what events in his life had lead up to him sitting perched on his kitchen counter, straddling and making out with his best friend, but he wasn't about to complain.

     

    In which Davey doesn't realize he and Jack are dating, which leads to pining, problems, and other unnecessary consequences.
