    The annoying part was that once he actually sat and thought about it, he understood why it kept happening.

     

    (aka five times someone mistook Ethan and Chris for a couple, and the one time they figured it out.)

    Summary

    “So, your brother is having what? Some sort of party?” Mike began.

    “Yeah, he and Katie will have been married for 10 years in June.”

    “Ok, so it's an anniversary party.” He continued. “Marcus would like you to go, but you’re worried that if you go, you’ll end up having to speak to your Mom and that’s something that you’ve spent the best part of twenty five years trying to avoid.” Mike paused to take a sip of his drink. “You’re conflicted because you’d like to be there for your brother, Katie and the kids but at the same time you’d rather gouge your eyes out than have to sit and make polite conversation with your mother. How am I doing so far?”

    ---

    Harvey is invited to celebrate with Marcus but in doing so he must also face his mother.

    Part three of "Its Always Been You" but is a stand alone story just set in the same timeline.

    Summary

    "This is miserable. I can't believe I've done this to myself." Chris leaned back over the faucet, and this time splashed ice water in his face, sending goosebumps down his back and arms.
    "The heart wants what it wants." Claire leaned against the doorframe of the bathroom, watching her brother, with an amused smile.
    There was a sound like the growling of a wounded bear. "Could it not have wanted someone whose heart didn't already want someone else?"

    Summary

    I made them gay because I wanted to.

    The bed was better than anything Adam had slept in for a while (...which wasn't a high bar, but still). They sat on the edge of it, cracking open the cans.

    Brian flopped down into the sheets, taking a messy sip. "Just like the old days, huh?" he smiled.

    Adam joined him. "If you close your eyes and ignore all the shit that's changed hard enough, then yeah. Maybe."
