Summary
Pete knows he's staring—knows he just stopped talking mid conversation to stare too, so it's not exactly like he's being subtle, but he can't help it. The guys gorgeous—about the same height as he is, but bigger in the kind of way that makes Pete salivate; soft, boyish features, red hair and a galaxy of freckles; a cute smile that shows off crooked teeth that Pete wants, no, needs to run his tongue over, and the warmest eyes he's ever seen. Really, the only thing that gives him pause is the fact that he's smiling at Barkovitch at all, but maybe he's just as nice as he looks.
Harkness makes a soft huh sound behind him before he's draping an arm over his shoulders, "you eyein' the guy over there with our Barko?"
Pete smirks, crossing his arms to rest on the table in front of him, "you're goddamn right I am, Richard. You're goddamn right."

Summary
By the time he looked back Barkovitch's jaw was clamped down around Collie's shoulder, lips pulled back and teeth on display—it didn't look gentle, or teasing. It looked affectionate, yet needy. Maybe if it was anybody else, Pete could see it as friendly. Pete had been bitten by Hank more times than he can count, but it was always when he was trying to be annoying, an action taken after they'd been fucking with each other. This was different—Barkovitch has just done this unprompted and he doesn't initiate touch unless he feels like he won't be rejected. It's why, when he's drunk, he always goes to Harkness, who'd hold just about anyone if they asked him to, or Stebbins, who is awkward about it, but clearly cares about Barkovitch enough to reciprocate, or Collie who…well, apparently who he's got something going on with.
