    Summary

    These are the numbers he engraves on his heart:

    Ilya has eighty moles on his back with seven lingering around the side of his hip in the shape of a shark’s tooth.

    He has a single freckle hidden behind his ear that’s in the perfect place for Shane’s thumb to brush against when he cups Ilya’s head to pull him in for a kiss.

    The hair on Ilya’s chest and stomach hides more targets for Shane to kiss and suck at, hinted at around the shape of his untamed happy trail—well, those are uncounted for now.

    Summary

    The last thing Chris said to Buck was in a text message. You’re so embarrassing. Buck had replied with the emoji with the one big eye and its tongue sticking out.

    Summary

    “You don’t have to do that,” Eddie says.

    Buck shrugs. “You also don’t have to smile at every person who says ‘she’s in a better place’ like that helps, but here we are.”

    The joke is soft, an opening. Eddie almost steps into it. “You’ve already done a lot,” Eddie says instead, faster than he means. “Go sit. Or eat. It’s—”

    He hears it lining up and can’t stop it.

    “—this is family stuff. I’ve got it.” The words are wrong the second they’re out; he hears them like Buck must. Buck’s hands still on the plate.

    Or, Eddie is taking things day by day. Buck has a bit of a breakdown, then a bit of a breakthrough. Chris sees dead people.
