    Summary

    Life presses down on them most days. But today, there are dried salt stains on Ivan’s shoulders and droplets of the Adriatic in his hair, and Lovro feels light and giddy and close to flying.

    ***

    Lovro and Ivan spend a week together at the seaside.

    Summary

    It’s then that Lovro meets Ivan’s eyes, and a silent exchange happens between them.

    Ivan offers, gently, “You could introduce me as a friend.”

    It’s not enough, Lovro wants to say. How could it ever be? Like having to keep Ivan’s baby picture as his lockscreen instead of a picture of him now. Like Ivan stealing his shirts to wear in public spaces instead of reaching down to hold his hand. Like having to create fantasy scenarios in his mind about innocent affection. Discreet. Hidden. Like what he feels is something wrong. “Sure,” he says instead. “Maybe.”

    A couple months down the line, Lovro gets a text from his father.

    Summary

    “Hey, before I forget, are you doing anything tonight?” she asks while playing with one of his fingers hanging over her left shoulder.

    “Not that I’m aware,” he answers, eyes turning to meet hers. “Why? You got something in mind?”

    “Well, Jack and Jen were thinking about hanging out by the docks later tonight, and I thought that since I desperately failed you last night ---”

    “Jo, you didn’t fail me ---”

    “I thought ---” she cuts him off and he shakes his head with a defeated smile. “--- that you deserve a nice night with some friends to make up for it.” Joey flashes her most sincere smile, eyes begging.

    And what was he gonna do? Say no?

    Summary

    “I bet you wouldn’t be able to last a week without kissing,” Carlos raised his eyebrow.

    “I bet you we could,” Gina retorted.

    “Now, wait a minute –” Ricky's voice grew alarmed.

    “Fine, you’re on,” Carlos grinned, his bait having worked, “One whole week of no kissing, starting from now.”

    “Fine!” Gina exclaimed.

    *

    5 times Ricky and Gina almost kissed when they were dared not to, and 1 time they did it anyway, bets be damned
