Summary
“You think you are so much better –“
“I know I am,” Max cut him off again. “But that doesn’t mean that I can’t be beat.”
“You want me to beat you?”
“I want you to fucking try,” Max said, and over the phone, Charles could hear his cocky little grin. Charles found himself grinning back.

Summary
Max pulled Charles’s wallet out of his own hoodie pocket and tossed it onto the table with a soft thump. "You’re lucky I’m the one living with you. Anyone else would have let you starve."
"I hate you," Charles whispered, though the words lacked their usual sting.
Max just leaned closer, his voice low enough that only Charles could hear it over the bar’s music. "No, you don't. You’re just annoyed because I'm right. Again."
or
the one where Max leaves a post-it note for everything, and Charles is slowly realizing that every single one of them says I love you.

Summary
“So you’re really going to go through with this?” Max’s voice carries a thin ribbon of anger he doesn’t bother to hide.
“By this… do you mean my wedding?”
“Yes.” Max’s voice sharpens. “Enough is enough, Charles. Are you really going to marry him?”
“Why shouldn’t I?”
“Just tell me he’s the one,” Max demands, sarcasm dripping. “Tell me he’s the love of your life.”
“Tell me you don’t love me. Say it. And I’ll leave. And you can go get married.”
“Don’t do this, Max. I’m begging you…”
“If you really love him—enough to marry him—then telling me you don’t love me should not be hard.”Series
