    Summary

    Jake leans against the wall, arms crossed over his shoulders. The white metal door taunted him. The nameplate next to the door had a familiar name on it, and an empty slot, meaning Bob had a room to himself. There was a buzzing under his skin, an itch that no matter how hard he tried he couldn’t scratch. Parts of him ached for touch, and yet everyone he had let touch him couldn’t sate the constant longing for something—someone.

    He was off his game, eyes drawn toward Floyd in the classroom, the mess hall. The Hard Deck, the way the smooth column of his throat bobbed when he sipped at water or a coke. The woodsy undertone of his cologne that lingered when he walked past chatting with Trace. The confidence in his voice over the coms, instilling a sense of trust that Jake wasn’t quite willing to acknowledge.

    Summary

    “Don’t worry,” Wade tells him. Summer in the city is blissful, but none of that elation is displayed in the dismal gray sky or the frantic traffic below them. “I’m sure that one day, somebody’ll come to punish me for all the things I’ve done in my life. I just don’t recognize anybody who can.”

    Peter reaches forward. Wraps his fingers around his arm. Holds him to hold him. “But I don’t want your punishment.”

    He wants his health. He wants his happiness. He wants him.

    “I want your recovery. And I don’t-” His grip tightens. “I don’t know how to help you.”

    Wade takes his hand and presses it against his heart.

    “This,” He admits, a smile ghosting across his lips. “This is how.”

    After Doctor Strange’s spell and month after month of starved depression, the last thing Peter needs is Deadpool settling down in Queens with a beyond-the-grave mission from Tony Stark to “find and protect the kid”. Hoping to distract him from finding his identity, he develops an alliance with the mercenary. Then a friendship. Then a crush. With lines getting crossed and connections growing deeper, by the time Peter realizes he's fallen in love, it's far too late to back out.
