Summary
Joe is doing his usual rounds, hoping for a job at the factory for the day when he sees the most beautiful man he's ever seen. When a hiring stop is declared for the day, Joe decides to use his day for something else... and gets way more than he bargained for in the best way possible.
-------
“So what are you doing with your day now?” Joe asks, running his hand through his hair, back to front until he drops it to his neck for a moment. Not long enough to be weird but long enough to draw attention if someone is interested. He knows the effect his blonde curls and blue eyes can have.
“Dunno. You?” Brown eyes flicker back up to Joe’s face.

Summary
Across the fire, the boy who Joe now knows is called Chuck, slaps Don on the shoulder. “You’re not a mute, are you? ‘Cause I haven’t once heard you say nothin’.”
Joe’s entire body tenses. Don? A mute? He’d laugh if it was funny but as it stands he just holds his breath, fingernails digging into the tree bark that he’s sitting on.
He sees Don’s eyes flicker to him for a second but it might just as well have been a trick of the light. There’s no way to know if he even remembers. If he recognizes Joe. It’s not like Joe had invited him to reconnect. It wasn’t an option before they were selected for the boat and it certainly isn’t an option now.
“No,” Don says, his voice floating across the fire and lighting Joe up.
-----------------------
After their fateful encounter in March, both Joe and Don are selected for the JV boat. How much longer can Joe outrun their past? (Spoiler: not that long)
