Summary
‘No offence, but I can’t let my parents find out I’m tutoring you,’ Jason said. ‘If they hear there’s an alpha sniffing around me, they’ll yank me out of school and send me to Maine. Especially–’ He gestured, a little rudely, at the everything that made up Eddie Munson.
Eddie blinked. ‘Right.’ He cleared his throat. ‘Come to mine after school?’
Jason’s neck prickled.
Him, go to Eddie Munson’s house?
‘Or we could meet at the pharmacy–’
‘No!’ The thought of what his parents would say if they heard Jason was going for milkshakes with Munson, like they were on a date– ‘No, your place is okay. Just, I don’t have a car–’
‘You can ride with me. I can pick you up at the back lot.’ Eddie seemed almost… excited. ‘I get it, dude. Thanks. I still think you’re wasting your time, but… if you’re cool with it, then… I don’t wanna screw you over. I’ll keep it quiet, and we can meet after school, and you can teach me how to conjugate my verbiage.’ He winced. ‘Not meant to sound dirty. My bad.’
Jason snorted. For some reason, it made Eddie’s whole face light up like Christmas.
Tutoring Eddie ‘the freak’ Munson is going to ruin Jason’s life. He just knows it.

‘Fucking hell.’
Roy shaded his eyes as he watched the newcomers walking out onto the grass.
‘That’ll be the new gaffer, then,’ Colin said.
Nobody was prepared for the new coach’s arrival at Richmond.
But frankly, that was the least of their problems.

Summary
Billy spotted Joey coming down the sidewalk while he was blinking the brightness of the sky from his eyes. There was a bench back there, like maybe Joey’d been sitting to wait, and he had his own Walkman headphones slung around his neck.
Billy went to meet him.
Joey gave a small, honest sort of smile as they stopped, a few feet of space between them, his hands in the pockets of his jeans. He had a flannel shirt on with the sleeves rolled up to the elbows, dark blue plaid over a plain white vest; he looked good. Tan and somehow… vivid. Very much alive, so much healthier than Billy remembered from the last time he’d seen him, more than a year ago now.
‘Hey,’ Joey said.
Billy’s mouth was very dry, and he nodded to buy some time, swallowing thickly.
‘The geek squad said to say hi.’
After the Regis incident, it takes a while for things to shake out. (Graduating helps. So does being in the same state.) But they’ve got the whole summer ahead of them.

Summary
Turns out, there’s a whole lot of things that go through your head when you’re stuck in the middle of a terrorist kidnapping plot.
It was maybe a sign of how much time Billy spent thinking about Joey, though, that his second thought, right after oh holy shit we’re all going to die, was oh. Oh fuck.
Billy’s gonna do whatever it takes to keep Joey safe.

Summary
"A lot of times the ‘markings’ were common, simple things you said to strangers all the time. 'Excuse me'; 'thank you'; 'hello'. Some got extremely romantic things like 'it’s you isn’t it? I’ve been waiting for you' or 'Wow you’re really pretty'. And they were always the first words their soulmate would ever say to them.
Of course, having 'You are the fucking worst kind of person in the world' tattooed down your side, didn’t bode well. How fucked up was Stiles Stilinski that even his fucking Soulmate hated him? High School had been a special kind of hell when all the kids learned what his tattoo said—despite his best efforts to keep it a secret."

Summary
Buck knew the universe wasn’t really a huge fan of him. But this? This was a new low.
The last two weeks of working with Eddie Diaz had been a special type of hell. Of course, while he’d been out of work nearly dying several times, Bobby had managed to replace him with the hottest, most competent probie that ever graduated the Academy. And of course, he hated Buck.
Which was good, because Buck hated him right back.
-----
In a world where everyone's timing is just a little off, Buck and Eddie take a few more missteps on the way to finding each other.

Really thoughtfully put together alternate timeline. Loved the fresh emotions the author pulled out with a little bit of juggling. Anguish in the best ways. Very impressive.
Particularly fun to get a bit of Eddie pining/oblivious Buck going on, rather than the other way around. Refreshing and delightful.
