   Summary

   “Are we friends now?” Joe asks. Nicky reaches up to pat Joe on the back, shifting his weight through his hips so he’s got enough power to push Joe into the water. When Joe comes up, spluttering, hair hanging lank across his face, he stares at Nicky, who looks back at him with a lopsided smile.

   “Now we’re friends.”

    
   Ten years, two best friends, one couch that seems to have its own agenda. Friends-to-lovers with all the trimmings.
