    Summary

    Michael focuses on their hands. 

    The contrast between their skin, Calum’s chipped black nail polish, Michael’s finger tattoos, the difference in their size.

    It wasn’t always like this. Calum’s hand used to be smaller, Michael’s fingers used to be less calloused, but it’s still familiar, after years of doing this.

    ***

    5 times Michael grabbed Calum’s hand over the years + 1 time Calum grabbed Michael’s

    Summary

    Ashton is a terrible person, that much he knows. But he’s a terrible person with hard deadlines, and after all of them have passed, maybe he can try to make a better impression on his hot, gay upstairs neighbors.

    Although, his new neighbor has likely crafted an Ashton-looking villain inside his head, because while he may be the asshole who can’t keep it down, Ashton’s the asshole who told him to shut up— and now, Ashton really can’t be sure which one of those monikers is worse.

    A 2004-snapshot story, featuring failed elections, broadband internet, flip phones, misunderstandings, and a long overdue dinner for two.

    Summary

    “So,” Calum begins slowly, blinking to clear the cheese haze from his vision, “Luke is moving back to Chicago, and he’s going to be…living next to me?” A tiny laugh slips out at the end, fizzy and manic. “Like. Luke. My ex-boyfriend Luke, who I haven’t spoken to in years and almost definitely hates me, is going to be living on the other side of my wall?”

    Summary

    “What, is it good?” Cal asks, eyes sparkling. Ashton clears his throat which suddenly feels a little dry, and shoves the camera at Calum, incapable of giving him a real answer. “Damn, that’s hot,” Cal says appreciatively when he sees it.
     
    “Yeah,” Ashton quickly agrees, too quickly, red climbing up his cheeks when he realizes how much he’s letting himself show. He clears his throat. “I mean, the lighting’s pretty good.”

    Calum gives Ashton a look that makes him squirm. “Yeah, I agree,” he says casually, but there’s something about his voice, something about the way he’s slowly moving closer to Ashton, so slow Ashton wouldn’t notice if he wasn’t so attuned to Calum by now that every small movement feels like a tidal wave. Ashton can’t help feeling like something is about to happen, but he doesn’t know what.

    He definitely doesn’t expect it to be Calum humming and saying, “I do think my lips would look better wrapped around something.”

    Or things escalate one day when Ashton takes some pictures of Calum, unable to focus on anything but his lips.
