Summary
She’s well-perfected the art of running without looking like she’s in a panic.
This is not that. This is flying down the interstate in the left lane, pushing yellow lights, not coming to complete stops, and a messy parking job. This is pleading with the universe that Coyote was right when he called her, begging the universe to not take her backseater from her.or
Phoenix will do anything to be able to see Bob after he's been taken to the hospital

Summary
She hears him before she sees him, a low snore ringing from the living room of the cabin they rented for the week between Christmas and New Years. Bobby’s curled up in a couple of blankets on the couch, a trash can and box of tissues next to him on the floor, his brow furrowed even in sleep.
OR
Phoenix takes care of Bob, who's got a cold their first day of leave.

Summary
Every day, Mav makes an effort to find Jake and invite him over, and every day Jake finds a way to say no. He gets home exhausted, locks the front door, and when he gets to bed, the apartment makes weird noises. Jake gets into the habit of double checking the locks every night, firmly shutting the doors and windows over and over again. He thinks he’s going crazy. Maybe he actually is crazy at this point.

Summary
Jake doesn’t know when he fell in love with Javy. It happened slowly during flight school; late night study sessions turning into lunches together, turning into going out to take a break from classes, turning into following Javy home for leave. Javy was still the only person that Jake could handle being around for extended periods of time and the only person he had a handle on.

Hangman has a crush and spends a while pining.

Summary
It’s gotten to the point where Jake can’t fathom living a life that isn’t at least partially defined by Javy. One of the kids fresh out of flight school nearly inverts themselves over Jake? Well shit, he’s gotta brag about the kid to Javy. A civy pulls a hilarious pickup line out of their ass at the bar? Javy’s gotta be able to make fun of them, too. Their usual restaurant finally has the beer Javy likes after months? Jake’s gonna see if he can buy some straight from the source since Javy’s next leave isn’t for another three months.
OR
Jake and Javy are best friends and I just think they're neat

if shane hollander gets mad at me reading about him getting blasted in the ass then he can check his bank account. i know ilya would be chill with it though
Luca Haas tries very hard to not let anyone know about his dark (read: embarrassing) past. Unfortunately, the fans are ready to let people know for him.
Or, Luca used to run a tumblr blog for Hollanov and the internet goes wild.

Summary
When the screen lit up, he was assaulted by non-stop texts. The sender’s name, Lily — Shane’s mysterious lover — stood proud atop of each text. Ah, that explained it. He paused when he caught sight of the most recent text.
Lily: I want to be in you so badly.
Then another text came in.
Lily: Do you miss having me in you as much as I miss being in you? You came so fast last time.
Hayden couldn’t help but turn his sight to the closed bathroom door as ‘in you’ repeated in his head. Was Shane… into pegging?
In which Hayden snoops through Shane's notifications and misinterprets every text.

Summary
Entering an actual relationship near the very beginning of when they first meet, Shane is still paranoid about pictures of them getting shared so Ilya buys him a Polaroid camera instead to document their relationship all the way back from 2012. The only problem is that he never intended for Yuna to find the album.
---
“I know we can’t have pictures of each other, but I still want them,” he confessed, still fiddling with Shane’s hair for his own comfort. “And I thought maybe...if they were just ours, you might be okay with it.”Shane stayed silent, eyes glancing between his tense expression and the bag as he pulled out a Polaroid camera. His thumb was gripping it so hard he thought it might crack, his anxiety manifesting physically.
“Ilya...” He paused, finally sitting up a bit more. Enough that Ilya had no choice but to let his hand fall away from his hair or else, it would seem too clingy.
“Is fine, if you don’t like idea,” he clarified, even though the thought of being rejected terrified him more than he could possibly express. “Was just a thought—”
“I like it,” Shane interjected before he could spin himself into a tizzy he would deny ever feeling in the first place.

Summary
Lately, playing hockey wasn't even as much fun as it used to be. Games were always the highlight, but even that, it didn’t feel as good since his team had been falling apart.
And all that because he came out as gay.
He didn’t really fault them for taking some time to accept it, so Shane let them talk. If that helped them digest the news, so be it.
He let them distance themselves from him, let them gossip around to other teams, let them make him the butt of jokes he didn’t understand.Shane didn’t mind, all things considered.
Everything was fine.

Summary
Kip likes Hunter’s teammates more than he expected to, which is to say not all that much.
Some of them are good—some of them are great—some of them are terrible, and a lot of them just have no idea how to talk to a queer person.
