Summary
Nothing had ever come this natural to Achilles before. Kissing Patroclus felt like the most normal thing in the world as if it was in his genetic code, etched in his mind from the day he was born. He had kissed a lot of other people before and none of them had been this perfect without a brief period of learning about the person in front of him. With Patroclus, though, he somehow knew the next move immediately, how he would lick inside his mouth and where, where his hands would grab next; what kind of noise he would make when Achilles touched a particularly pleasant place. He felt completely safe and known in Patroclus’ embrace, as little sense as it made.
One thing about Achilles? He could have never guessed he would be absolutely smitten with a stranger with a strange name he met in a museum.

Summary
Achilles was not sure if there were words to describe his way of looking at him, was not sure even if he knew them, even if there were. It always felt like he was looking at the very core of Achilles, as if his grey, gloomy gaze pierced through his skin and nerves and bones, as if he saw something much deeper inside him, something even he did not know existed. His gaze felt crushing and caressing at the same time, as if it was something addictive but life destroying at the same time. He felt ashamed, wanting to cover up into modesty every time Patroclus looked at him, yet at the same time he yearned to peel every single layer of clothing to get him to see more of Achilles. He felt blood rush up to the back of his neck and ears, his hands wrapping themselves in his golden curls. Patroclus was looking now. Patroclus was looking at him.
Achilles has missed Patroclus a week prior to their reunion, so they have to make do.

Summary
It wasn’t as if Patroclus wasn’t talking to him, was mean to him or he deprived him of his attention, which would be the worst in all of those things; no, he was the exact opposite of all those things. He was perfect in every single aspect, he was everything anyone could want from a partner.
Yet it did not stop Achilles from feeling like he was watching a one-man-theatre when he was talking to him.
Achilles is worried about his relationship with Patroclus, his worries come true.

Summary
“I love you, I love you, I love you,” Achilles gasped, his hands finding his own hair when he found nothing to hold onto, pulling on his long, golden curls in something in between frustration and ecstasy. From the trembling breaths filling his throat in a familiar way, Patroclus could tell he was crying. “I’m in love with you, Patroclus, I’m so in love with you, I- I- You have no idea–”
Patroclus wanted to reach upwards, to hold him and press him to his chest, to kiss his hair, his forehead, his mouth, his cheeks, his temples. He wanted to push him down on his back, bury his face into his sweet-smelling neck, whisper those same words against his pulse, to tell him.
Yet his jaw felt like it was screwed shut, his body paralyzed.
Patroclus has fucked up, he somehow fixes it.
