    Summary

    An entity wears the face of whoever they desire most, and solitude gives it room to hunt. Bound together by fear, Naim and Ryan travel through coaches and cheap motels, trying to outrun a punishment shaped exactly like love. But as guilt, grief, and unspoken betrayal follow them, Naim begins to wonder whether Ryan stays because he loves him — or because the monster wearing Naim’s face has left him no other choice.

    -

    Yet Naim knows it’s watching, waiting to rip him open like spoiled fruit. He hears the flies buzzing and feels himself rotting into something sticky-sweet and dripping, splitting down the middle.

    Summary

    “It scares me, a little,” Naim said suddenly, soft as a confession.

    Ryan frowned. Cigarettes forgotten, he shifted onto his side so he could look at Naim properly, but he didn’t speak. Not yet—he knew from the way Naim was frowning that he was trying to untangle the chaos in his brain.

    “Now that we’ve gotten this far, it makes me… Hope.”

    “... For more?”

    Naim couldn’t meet his eyes, but Ryan didn’t push it.

    “... Yeah.”

    He didn’t think he could handle it if he met Naim’s eyes right now, either.

     

    (A long conversation after sex, four years after the boys left that shithole of a town behind.)

    Summary

    Sometimes Naim dreams about yellow fields.

    Yellow like the scleras of Ryan’s eyes when he’s going down on his knees, fingers curling into fists, mouth opening slow, slow, to house a scream he can’t let out because he’s choking, he’s on his side, on his back in the grass, on his back under Naim’s body, under Naim’s hands, a not-Naim, a really-Naim-this-time, the dust of an abandoned building around them, on a dark street, in a backyard, under the moving shadows of the laundry on a line, choking himself sick, yellow like all of that, the sickness, pus pressing his skin taut and up.
