Summary
The first time Jake tried to get his Sunday morning coffee and found none other than Rooster at the best table by the window, he could have believed it was happenstance.
The second, sure, it could have been a coincidence.
The third time, though, was when he started to consider that it might be enemy action.

Summary
"That's it?" Bradley asks into Jake's shoulder. "You're not angry?"
Jake pulls away so he can look at Bradley, giving him space to breathe again. "Of course not."
It's wrong, all wrong. Bradley wishes more than anything that Jake would drop the act, scream at Bradley the way he deserves. Instead, Jake kisses his forehead. "I'm not angry, darlin'. You came home, didn't you?"
Bradley doesn't have the heart to disagree.

Summary
Jake came home six hundred and twenty-seven days after he fell from the sky. Only he didn't have a home to go to, because the Navy didn't want him anymore. He fought so hard to get back in the air, only to be told he'd never fly again. By all accounts, his recovery was nothing short of a miracle—but still, the risk of re-injury was too high. If something like that happened again, he might not be so lucky.
Lucky. There was that word again. Jake had given a decade of his life to the Navy, had sacrificed everything, and they considered him lucky.
They paid him off well enough, covered his hospital bills, gave him a medal or three. It didn't make it better. It didn't undo what happened, and nothing ever would.
Or: After he's forced to leave the Navy, Jake takes a job as a bodyguard for one Bradley Bradshaw. The only problem? Bradley can never find out.

Summary
So what does it matter if his heart flutters each time he sees Pete? What can come of those easy conversations other than another end, one Tom thinks might be the final nail in the coffin of his romantic life.
Each time they part, he pushes down the want to hold on to Pete for a precious few seconds longer. He drowns his need to let their casual touches linger, to meet Pete's eyes for longer than a split second.
Pete has his own world to deal with, one Tom has only glimpsed.Tom's world is a mess of too-long shifts and too-little sleep. So he'll spare Pete the chaos, let him in only enough for Tom to wonder what could be.

Summary
"It's been five years, Jake." She points out, as if he hadn't felt every single second of those years slip away. "I don't know how much longer I can let you wait for someone who isn't coming back."
"You don't have to let me do anything." He murmurs, brushing off his sister's question. "It's my decision."
Ellie continues, ignoring Jake's attempt to ignore her. "Wouldn't Bradley want you to be happy?"
Jake exhales sharply at the name most people have learned not to mention around him. "What does it matter what he would want? He's not here, is he?"

Summary
In a world where your soulmate's initials are written over your heart, the last thing Bradley ever expected was to find out after almost a decade of arguments and not-so-friendly competition was that Hangman was his soulmate. It was fine. Really. He was totally fine with it. They could figure it out. Really. It would be fine.
Totally fine.

Summary
There's always been a stubborn rumor that one of the squad is a natural. A stupid rumor, but it sticks around.
They're all augments. The military stripped back their humanity and rebuilt it with all the best parts of the disease: the strength, the senses, the ability to transform at will. They were spared the worst—the indignity of duress, the lingering after-effects of transformation, the constant risk of losing themselves to the wolf.
So no, none of the squad is a secret natural who's managed to fool the rest of them this whole time. But that doesn't stop them from joking about it.
or; in a squad of man-made werewolves, Jake Seresin is all natural. He loses himself somewhere along the way. Bradley finds him.

Summary
“It’ll be nice,” Bradley says firmly, like he’s just decided, is speaking it into existence. “Being in San Diego again. Maybe I can finally pull my bike out of storage.”
Nat pauses halfway to drowning the last, lukewarm mouthful of her beer.
“Bike like… motorcycle?” she asks.
“No, Nat,” Bradley says dryly. “A tandem. Yeah, like a motorcycle.”
or; five times someone finds out Bradley rides a motorcycle, and one time someone already knew.

Summary
As casually as he could, he shifted his hand where it was still held tightly in Rooster’s grip, inching his fingers forwards until they brushed against the exposed part of his wrist. Jake gently pressed the tips of his fingers down, searching with light movements until he found what he was looking for.
And there it was.
The soft beat of Rooster’s pulse thumped against the pads of his fingers, as slow and steady as the man approached every aspect of life. Jake felt the panic recede at once, the irrefutable proof that he had done it, he had saved Rooster, seeming to be enough for his brain to calm down.
-
Or, the five times Hangman checks Rooster’s pulse to remind himself he made it back from the mission, and the one time Rooster catches on.
