Summary
Lars likes Driver's gloves.
He likes the way they wrap themselves snugly around each and every one of Driver's fingers, likes the way they caress the palms and backs of his hands, hug the lithe lines of his wrists. He likes the way Driver's hands flex within them; the soft creaking of the worn leather is as soothing to Lars's ears as a masterfully crafted, cloying lullaby. Lars likes to watch him pull them on, the way his fingers wiggle and settle into their rightful place, ready to do a job.
Their job—other than to hold Driver's hands while he drives—is to touch.

Summary
He was holding me down, there was nowhere I could go—I suppose I very well could’ve tried, but I didn’t. I don’t know why I didn’t. An unknown force willed me to let whatever was going on continue, feeling my chest rise and fall as I caught my breath. I just looked up at every inch of his face over and over trying to memorise it because I had an awful feeling that one day I would have to let him go and days would exist where the world would not feel like it was inhabited only by the two of us.
—
I turned my head, feeling vulnerable under his eyes, which made me feel an awful pain in my chest because he was so beautiful here, under the starry sky, the snow protecting his hair, his mouth ajar, so kissable—I lowered my eyes, slowly enough to see his watch adorning his wrist, in silver, the second hand slowly advancing, as if the world had stopped, and that there was only me, only him. There has always been only him.
Almost midnight.

Summary
“Pippa peered up at him through her eyelashes, her face contorted into one of obvious anxiety.
As he met her eyes, he was suddenly struck by the similarities between her and Boris.
It was difficult to place, harder to explain—but in the exact moment, all he could think of was Boris sitting in her seat, staring up at him with round, anxious eyes.
He blinked.
The illusion dissipated.
Boris was gone.”OR
Pippa is a lesbian, and Theo doesn’t care—until she brings up Boris.

Summary
Really, I did know how to get him to come; that part was easy enough, was it not? Three small words, never before said, though we both knew it well enough without me saying it to him there in the street.
OR
