    Summary

    Minho was silent for a few beats. Over the radio, a man was crooning about his lost love.

    “You don’t want more out of a marriage?”

    It was Jisung’s turn to laugh. “What more is there to ask for?”

    “Attraction,” Minho’s voice sounded odd, almost reluctant. “Intimacy. You really find him…satisfactory?”

    What did Minho know about him, or love, for that matter, anyway? And what right did he have to ask if Seungmin was satisfactory? It wouldn’t be his marriage. It was already hardly his family.

    God damn Minho, Jisung thought, for being so cagey. Mysterious.

    Unfortunately, if there was one thing he couldn’t resist, it was a mystery.

    Summary

    It's lovely up here; all meadows dotted with wildflowers, wind-beaten tracks criss-crossing this way and that through the fields, weaving inland to the pinewoods. The sun's hot on his back as he passes ramshackle stone walls, long since crumbled to piles of ancient rubble and scree, and then the path winds downwards, still following the line of the coast until Sirius finds himself outside an old white cottage, tucked away behind the hill with a rose garden that faces out to the sea.

    Sirius moves to Cornwall for the summer and meets a rude, beautiful boy who is writing a book that may or may not be about dragons.
