    Summary

    When filling out the application, he was very detailed in his skill set. Writing, editing, research, filing, archival work, that sort of thing. Really, the opportunity to work in some sort of local publication’s office or town history archive would’ve been rather pleasant! That’s what he was expecting, anyway.

    Those expectations flew out the window and all the way back to London when his shuttle pulled up to a farmhouse in the middle of nowhere….God, where was he? What state bordered Georgia? Louisiana? Kansas? Didn’t matter. Apparently, twenty hours a week, he was going to be the part-time summer farmhand.

    Brilliant.

    In which Jon is spending the summer abroad in America, and Martin is a farmhand eager to become friends.

    Summary

    The bracelet is stainless steel with a colored gem. For most omegas it’s red, with the attendant phone number of their emergency heat contact engraved beside it. Martin expects Jon’s to be black, which stands for, Leave me alone, I’ll take my risks.

    It’s blue. Martin wracks his brain, trying to remember what that stands for.

    Tim whistles softly. “Looks like I’m giving you the day off,” he tells Martin, thankfully without teasing. At Martin’s uncomprehending gaze, he elaborates: “Blue means If I show interest in you, go ahead and spend heat with me.

    Summary

    “If I'm being perfectly honest…I – haven't had a date in quite a while. Can't say I'm very good at – this.”

    Martin doesn't move closer, simply holding Jon by the waist with his drink in hand.

    “I dunno, I think you're doing really well.” He flashes Jon a smile, the recessed lights overhead glinting across sharp incisors. Certainly new additions, but somehow they still suit him. They're almost cute.

    Still, Jon's throat grows tight at the sight of them, conjuring images that he isn't entirely sure are all his own. He hasn't been sure of a good many things as of late.

    Summary

    Martin’s eyes trailed the veins of Jon’s neck. He kissed the soft skin over his pulse.

    Then he bit down.

    Jon cried out and jerked away. Martin blinked, then slapped his hand over his mouth.

    -

    Martin is a vampire now. It isn't great. Jon tries to help.

    Summary

    Throughout the years, Tim and Gerry have kissed a number of times.
    Tim enjoys it, and Gerry does it as easily as breathing. They kiss with the ease of money changing hands; like it’s Gerry's chosen currency for remunerating their loved ones for each act of love or kindness.
    Tim honestly thought there was little true spark to it, until recently.
