Summary
Steve's breath hitches as Eddie leans closer. He smells like chlorine, peppermint, and a hint of something that's just Eddie. It's intoxicating enough that Steve doesn't think about what's happening, he just leans in. Kissing Eddie is better than any gold medal around his neck.

Summary
Steve’s used to days where it hurts too much to get out of bed. The days where he can’t even open his eyes, because despite his curtains being closed the room is still too bright. He’s used to spending the day trying to focus on anything other than the throbbing pain behind his eyes. He’s not used to someone being there with him on these days.
-----------
Steve is suffering and Eddie is doing his best to take care of him.
-----------
I'm apologizing now for the sadness, I needed to get this out of my head.

Summary
In these delightfully sinful moments, he feels like he could die happy. It might sound morbid, but he’s got Robby, his boss, eating his husband's spend from him like he’s starving. Jack’s petting his head and telling him what a good boy he is, how he is doing so well in a hushed, soft voice he knows no one else gets to hear. It’s so intimate, this place in their lives he’s been let into. His sleepy, blissed-out brain begs the question again: What is this? How could this be anything but love? The thought repeats like a mantra, and tears spill from his closed eyes again.

Summary
Dennis lays in the bed with a stillness so absolute it feels staged. A ventilator breathes for him in measured sighs, the sound too rhythmic to be human. It almost looks like he’s a kid pretending to sleep in the backseat of his parents’ car, hoping to be carried inside by strong paternal arms.
Robby would do anything for that to be the case. Instead, it is sedation that has smoothed away the sharpness from Dennis’s features.
It is a heart attack that has made him so still.
Or,
Dennis Whitaker fails to clear and gets shocked by a defibrillator. He takes it as a punishment for sinful eyes that can't seem to look away from Dr. Robby and decides not to tell anyone. The ER keeps moving, but Dennis's heart doesn't. It terribly, horribly doesn't.

Summary
Ex Mormon Dennis Whitaker, folks. ft a lot of mental breakdowns. author is lowk working through trauma with this one (I am exmo)
Title and chapter headings from We'll Never Have Sex by Leith Ross <3
(His desire for human contact was embarrassingly innocent. A hand squeezing his shoulder, the nape of his neck, petting through his hair. Sometimes, laid down at night, alone, he would pet himself like that. Rub his scalp, pretend it was someone else's hands. If it was someone else, who would it be? Would they whisper sweet things to him?
Now, he imagined it to be Dr Robby. As humiliating as that is, he can't help himself. Dr Robby gave him something to work with— he squeezes his own shoulder, pressing his thumb into that bit of skin Dr Robby had touched. Dr Robby's hands are bigger, warmer, but Dennis makes do.)
