TONY’S POV

I knock at the dull off white colored door of Luke’s dorm room. There’s no answer. I shift the paper bag in my hand and knock again. Harder. The half-peeled university decal shamelessly clinging to the door, vibrates from the force of my knock.

The dorm hallway is quiet except for the low hum of a distant TV—and the sound of my heartbeat, racing faster than the seconds ticking by. What if he’s not happy to see me. He’s never invited me over before.

I pound my fist harder on the door. Still nothing. Pressing my ear against the cold door, I listen for any movement on the other side of it. But all I hear is silence. Then a groan and then slow dragging of feet.

When the door finally cracks open, I see him—Butt naked, his usually perfect hair is a mess, he’s honey brown eyes dulled from exhaustion. He squints as if the golden rays of the setting sun are too bright for his eyes.

“Hi baby.” I say with a smile.

“Tony?” He blinks sluggishly, voice rough from exhaustion.

“It’s me, I brought food” I raise the paper bag slightly. A sandwich from Brew HaHa!, a bottle of water, and a pastry.

For a second, he just stares, with brows furrowed in confusion “What’re you doing here?”

I take a step closer. “Lukas, baby I got you some food. Can I come in?”

He steps aside with a tired exhale, rubbing his eyes as I walk in. He drags himself back to bed face-down, groaning into his pillow. The room is small, two beds, two desks and a mini fridge humming quietly in the corner. Probably shared. I kneel at the head of the bed and place the paper bag on the nightstand beside it. Leaning in just enough to see his face better, unable to resist, I rub our noses together.

“How do you feel?” I ask softly

“Not so good.” He responds, his voice muffled with half his face still pressed into the pillow.

“You’ll feel better after a shower.” I say rubbing slow , steady circles into his back. “I wish we could take a shower together.”

He scrunches up his face. “Me too.”

Unfortunately this is a traditional style dorm—-communal bathrooms, shared with other students on this floor..

“We could go back to my place?” I suggest.

“We’re not doing that.” He replies with a dismissive tone like he didn’t come over to my place everyday—and like he wouldn’t still end up there by morning anyway. He flips onto his back, His blond hair tumbles across the pillowcase—dirty-pink and sage-green, beautifully patterned with polka dots and abstract shapes.

“Why not?”

“It’s not safe.”

I can’t hold back the scoff that escapes my lips.“It’s not safe. What do you mean it’s not safe? Are we gonna get kidnapped?” I tease. I know that he means someone might see us together. But don’t friends go over to the houses of other friends? I hate how paranoid he gets sometimes. It’s like it blocks out the light of reasoning. It’s not as if I have ‘I’m Lukas’ boyfriend’ tattooed on my forehead.

“Don’t start Tony. You know what I mean.”

I shake my head, pushing down the urge to roll my eyes at him. I don’t argue. What’s the point? At the end of every one of our conversations that starts like this, I’m always frustrated by his unwillingness.

I move closer, shifting so I can straddle his naked body, warm and solid and familiar underneath me.

He doesn’t react outright, just stares at me with hooded eyes, heavy with fatigue. I lower myself against him, nuzzling my nose into the crook of his neck. His body quakes, taking notice of mine, pressed against his.

“Of course I know what you mean.” I whisper, with my lips moving against the skin on his neck. “But it’s not like people will be able to tell we’re fucking just by seeing us together.”

He sighs heavily.

“Someone might just see the heart eyes I give you all the time and figure it out.” He says softly “It’s just my heart, I can’t help it. Whenever you’re close to me, it goes crazy and gooey and mushy.”

And there goes my own heart, sprouting fluttering wings and soaring away with my frustration.

When his fingers tangle briefly in my hair, I lift my head just enough to press a lazy kiss to his jaw and he hums, like he’s enjoying this as much as I am.

“You barely looked at me last night though. It was killing me to sit there while you ignored me.”

“We were with everyone, Tony,” he replies. “ I wanted to kiss you, but I couldn’t. I was suffering. And you—you were oblivious to my suffering.”

“Not true. I was suffering too.” I breathe in his scent, inhaling deep from his neck to behind his ear. He shivers.

“I was thinking about yesterday morning.” About how he sucked me off and fucked me so good in the shower before going for his morning run. I shiver, both in remembrance and need. “

His hand moves in slow steady strokes from my back to my hair then back down, I fucking love back rubs. I lap up his attention, blooming under it. His warmth, the quiet hum of the fridge lulls me, making my eyelids feel heavier, before I know it I'm drifting.

I feel Lukas shift beneath me,”Tony?” he murmurs

“Mmm?” I groan, with my face still pressed against the crook of his neck.

“You fell asleep” he says stroking my head

“I did?” I blink groggily. “How long was I out?”

“Close to forty minutes. You were drooling badly”

“Shut up.”

He chuckles. “Come on, get up. It’s time to go.”

“Why?” I bury my face deeper into his shoulder “five more minutes”

“You can’t stay here. Caleb’s gonna be here soon.” he says, both his hands still roaming over my body, and I’m supposed to leave? But his roommate will be here soon. So I should leave.

“Walk me to the door?”

“The door is right there.” Lukas gestures , but stands up anyway. At the door, he presses me against it and kisses me hard—his tongue moving against mine, robbing me of common sense making me shudder with want. Holy shit.

“I’m going to come to you tomorrow morning okay?” he says in response to my arousal as his gaze flickers all over my face. Like he’s trying to commit me to memory.

“Okay. I love you”

“I love you more. Tomorrow.” he repeats like a promise, then shoves me gently out the door. But not before fondling my ass.

    Caleb? Caleb?! Are you there?" It's Ellie, on the phone. She just told me that Tim proposed to her. And I can’t explain why my throat feels tight and closed up. Maybe it's the sudden effect this news has on me—like running into a wall. Even though he told me he’d planned to, I never actually thought he would. I never thought he'd betray me.It's been months since I left Shiloh Creek. I haven't thought of Tim in weeks now. I thought I’d moved on.Why does it feel like my body is turning against me?

I’m here” I manage to choke out, my voice sounding weird and distant. “Where’d you go?” “Nowhere, Ellie you were saying?”“You sound weird. Are you okay?” She asks again.“I’m okay, just a bit shocked.” “I know right?” She giggles “it was unexpected. But isn’t it great? I think he loves me.” She sounds dreamy and oddly breathless.

    The kiss is sloppy and wet and I'm so aroused. “Caleb, stop” Tim says firmly as I mouth at the skin on his neck, rubbing my palm against the bulge in his jeans. “Caleb!” he hisses, grabbing both my wrists in one of his hands. “What?” i breathe heavily “Stop” he repeats again “Why? What’s wrong?” i run my eyes all over his face “What’s wrong?What's – Caleb we’re at church!” his whispers with a hint of urgency. Of course we’re in church, it’s bible study, like every other thursday night, but that has never stopped us in the past. I stare at him, trying to figure out why this is a problem now and I come up with a gigantic nothing. “I don't understand, why is this a problem?” I’m sure I look just as confused as I am. “Tim what’s going on?” I ask. He gives me a grim look which makes my arousal ebb. I adjust my clothes and straighten my shoulders. “Baby” he says quietly, running his hands along my arms. He exhales sharply through his nose, looking anywhere but at me, like a guil

    A pair of kind eyes peer down at me. It’s Ellie’s. She has the kindest eyes ever. “Caleb, Tim said you weren’t feeling well. what’s wrong?” She asks concern written all over her face. She’s worried about me now. I wonder how she’ll feel if she gets to know her boyfriend—soon to be fiancé—was also once my boyfriend and broke my heart. I’m so vile I probably don’t deserve her kindness, but my jealousy and selfishness is stronger than any guilt that I am feeling. He was mine before he was hers. “I don’t feel so good.” i mumble“Have you eaten today?” She asks her brows pulling together in worry. Right…. Food. I have a brain that remembers to do everything else but eat. She sighs “let me take you home and make something for you to eat. Can you walk?”“I think”My legs are surprisingly steady enough to carry me to her car, but she still leans against me supportively, her arms around me. The parking lot is mostly full, so it takes a while for me to spot her car, under a large oak tree,

    ONE MONTH LATERA month ago, Tim had broken my heart in the most cruel and spiteful way known to man. Two weeks ago, I left Shiloh creek for college. Two weeks since I left home for college without a goodbye from my mother. I had woken up to the sound of somebody moving around downstairs. It had seemed like a normal morning, which wasn’t right because it was not a normal morning. I was going to college. I wondered if my mum was still asleep . I wondered if she’d hug me tightly and then tell me she loved me, tell me to take care of myself, tell me to call if I needed anything.When I finally went downstairs, it was only my father downstairs at the kitchen table on his phone, probably reading the news or scrolling through emails. My eyes kept darting to the hallway that leads to my parents bedroom. The door was shut. My father cleared his throat and offered me coffee: “there’s coffee if you want any”“Thanks” I didn’t want any, but I poured a cup and took a sip anyway. Just to have

    SEPTEMBER The next few weeks run by and I find myself running with it. Literally. At first, Luke’s constant jabs about my body seemed harmless. Annoying, but harmless. Then, one day, he called me a weak-ass bitch. I don’t know if it was the shock on my face that amused him, but he laughed and said he didn’t mean it. Later, he bought me running gear when I told him I didn’t have any, like that made it better. Now, as I walk to one of Luke’s hockey games, I realize I’ve gotten used to him. Used to the big mouth, the offhand slurs, the smirks that no longer get under my skin. I get there and the arena is freezing. The kind of chill that bleeds under your skin and settles in your bones. I should have brought a jacket and something for my nose. Luke had warned me about the cold but he never mentioned the smell. The sharp bite of wet concrete combined with the musty sour odor of sweat. Then there’s the greasy stench of the arena food—overcooked fries. Somewhere in the crowd, someone s

    The bar is packed tightly. I can’t tell if it’s due to its size or due to too many people. But it’s warm enough, almost hot. There’s the smell of liquor and cigarettes and different people in the air. And spicy food. Luke moves through the crowd, pushing people left and right without a second thought. My ears find Luke’s friends before my eyes lock onto them. The laughter coming from the back corner is loud as hell. They’re crowded around a table littered with empty glasses and used napkins and half-eaten food. “There he is! There’s my fucking guy!!!” One of them says. “Dude you were a fucking beast today” There is a slight resemblance between all of them. I can’t tell their jockey, athletic, overly—masculine faces apart. “Tell that to my fucking face man.” Luke says with a smug smile on his face, rubbing his bruised face. I stand silently, waiting for Luke to introduce me. But he doesn’t, douchebag that he is. “Who the fuck is that?” another one on the left asks and

    I hate surprises. After what I witnessed last night, it’s decided that I hate surprises. I’m in PSYC 101, the monotonous voice of the professor droning on about cognitive biases, I try to take notes but my fingers float uselessly over my laptop keys as my eyes drift across the room. I notice short dark hair and I know whose it is. I know it’s Tony. Which is weird seeing as he’s not the only person in this class with short dark hair. It’s strange that I’ve never noticed him in this class before. I definitely did not notice him last night as well. He must be really good at fading into backgrounds. Another disturbing thought pops into my head. Luke is queer. What’s more disturbing, he’s a queer person that hangs around homophobic people. He really must not like himself. What happened last night wasn’t just something that drunk people do. Luke was drunk, of course, but this was something he’d done multiple times. There was an affinity in the ordinary way he’d leaned into Tony. He
