I'm not even going to talk about the sex here, because sdjhfjksuhjk. Meaning it's really awesome and perfect and everything, but it's definitely not the best part. I love the characterisations. I love the trust. I love Brendon being a spazzy little freak but being an adult at the same time. They're both thoughtful with each other, and they're in love, and that's kind of my favorite part. The sex has a purpose here, and I like that a lot.

Ryan's insecurities felt so human. And this:

One thing Ryan appreciates: Brendon never reads over his shoulder, like he's caught Spencer trying to do, and he never goes out of his way to let Ryan know that he isn't peeking, which Jon always does. Ryan almost wants to ask Brendon if he wants to read Ryan's journal, but is afraid of the answer - afraid that Brendon will want to and that it'll be. Embarrassing. Because he doesn't want to think about what it'd be like if he were the only one writing about...whatever they're doing. If it's more for him than it is for Brendon.

Most of the time, though, he knows he's just over-thinking things, and leaves them as is, lets Brendon take the lead.

I just really, really love that. Oh, and:

They lie like that for what must be hours, nothing more, and fall asleep with legs entangled and hearts beating in time.

Sigh. Yeah. Amazing job, you. ♥

Brendon is so much fun for me to write, eeheehee. He is just. So glorious.
