    Summary

    'It occurred to him, while he waited for morning to officially arrive, that his feelings for Art were a lot stronger than he previously thought. He knew they were close, closer than most friends. He knew that he might be a little obsessed. He knew that he wanted Art to be around all the time. But he hadn’t fully realized in what capacity. It occurred to him that he very well may be in love, if he even knew what that meant. And if so, he very well may be irrevocably fucked.'

    A look at Patrick and Art's time as roommates at the Mark Rebellato Tennis Academy, as Patrick comes to terms with his feelings for Art, his sexuality, and his strained relationship with his family.

    Summary

    With Tashi it’s… something else entirely.

    Because the thing is, Art hasn’t formally attended church since his parents’ funeral back in ‘08, and even then he didn’t really feel much beyond an aching numbness. A startling void as he lifted his eyes to the ornate, painted ceiling. But here, on his knees in a random hotel in Cincinnati, mouth pressed against the soaking wet heat of Tashi Duncan, Art has never felt closer to God.

    Summary

    “You’ve never seen any of the horny comments people make about you?” Tashi asks.

    Art's face crinkles up even more as he shakes his head.  “Horny comments?”

    Sometimes he’s so wonderfully, beautifully innocent that Tashi hates to corrupt him, but she can’t resist this time.  “Oh, yeah.  The tennis groupies want to fuck you so bad.”

     

    Or: Tashi reads online horny comments about Art out loud to him, and he gets turned on by it.

    Summary

    Tashi not saying she loves him back has always been something that’s lingered in the air between them, but they’ve never really spoken about it. True to his word, Art has never made it an issue, but even so, part of her has felt guilty for not saying it. But how could she? She’s thought about it for years–even wanted to say it. But every time she’s tried to, it just hasn’t come out, and so she’s let it rest. The one thing she’s truly ever loved was something she never hesitated to talk about. She’d told anyone and everyone who would listen how much she loved tennis, and then when that had been so tragically taken away from her, how could she possibly think of saying she loved anything else? Tashi tells Lily she loves her, but that’s her daughter. Art? That’s different, and the thought of trying to tell him so makes her heart race and her stomach churn.

    Or: Four times that Art has told Tashi he loves her, and she hasn't said it back. Until now.
