    Summary

    Everything Colton Hill had ever touched wilted beneath his finger tips, died at the first signs of his affection. The irony of it was that Cole himself never actually died. It was like a sick game Cole played with fate, how many times could he knock on death’s door before it finally let him in.

    Or Colton Hill is fucked up in a million ways, and Rust is willing to look past it all.

    Summary

    If Rust was upset that Cole was pushing him away once again, this time he didn't show it. He always seemed happy to see Cole when they passed in the halls at school, and the few and far between days when Cole was able to hang out with him and Quinn?

    God, truly a beacon of light for all of them in this trying time. The three of them meshed so well together, and they actually would have so much fun. Like, those moments almost made Cole forget.

    They would never be 'normal,' whatever normal fucking meant. Cole was starting to think that maybe he had never been normal to begin with, and he didn't want to pretend to be. But forgetting would have been really fucking nice.

    Well, before Cole knew it, the Baypen structure had been rebuilt, three storefronts on Main Street had been renovated, they had hired farmers to come in and begin to salvage all the farmland that had been burned, and Quinn was going to be leaving in three days.

    Summary

    So, if Rust had wanted to show a softer, sweeter side on this lovely morning, then Cole was a fly falling for honey temptations. It would not be long before their lips found each other, and they would transition matters to the bedroom and fall back asleep.

    Yet, the question from a burning argument remained stagnant in their heads, gnawing and skinning them alive: "Are you my boyfriend or my bodyguard?"

    Or

    I write to fill in some questions/thoughts I had when I finished reading book 3. I explore more of their time in that setting and what happens out there.
