    Summary

    The first time, Rhett laughed. Link doesn’t blame him–it was a different time, and they were practically babies. Rhett was right to laugh, probably, based on what Link remembers. Things hadn’t fit right and what sticks out in Link’s memory of the day–besides Rhett’s involuntary giggle, high-pitched and nervous–had been how dang unwieldy everything had been.

    He’d felt good, though, in a little white thing with red piping, a vital piece of a cheerleading uniform Link still isn’t sure how Rhett’s then-girlfriend had left without.

    (even then he’d thought about how it ended up on the floor in the first place, about Rhett’s blunt fingers fumbling with the zipper before getting frustrated–dude could barely do up his buttons, he wouldn’t have the patience for the clasps–and pushing the fabric out of the way instead, about Rhett’s body pinning the skirt in place between them as he’d rocked into tight heat, about Rhett, always about Rhett)

    Summary

    “You are too generous to trifle with me. If your feelings are still what they were last April, tell me so at once. My affections and wishes are unchanged; but one word from you will silence me on this subject for ever.”

    Or: what happened after the [ we all got hit by a ] bus scene (aka "you could stay at my place, if you like")....

    Summary

    In hindsight, Shane is too old to have thought that friends with benefits was something that the two of them would be able to pull off. He’s had friends with benefits before that worked beautifully, but they were not with people whose jobs were tied up in his own, whose friendships were as closely interwoven into Shane’s everyday life as Ryan’s is. He’d thought these were the very things that could keep it from getting weird, because they were such good buddies, Ryan would be solidly cemented as his pal that nothing could shift him.

    This was a miscalculation, on Shane’s part.

    --

    OR: Lots of friends sleep together casually without it getting weird. Surely Ryan and Shane can, too.

    Summary

    “Oh. Well. You were making noise.” The way he says it, it’s as if, to him, that explains everything. “And you thought…what? Better smother me?” (mid-s2e4, sharing a bed, naturally.)
