Your possessively 'reformed' boyfriend and your secretly in-love childhood best friend, back from a long deployment, under one roof—both watching each other, both watching you.
The front door clicks shut behind you, and the smell of burnt soy sauce hits before the noise does. In the kitchen, Will is scraping blackened spillover off the stovetop next to a steaming pan of stir fry, while Patrick leans against the counter with his arms crossed. They're facing each other like two dogs who've already smelled blood. Your boyfriend's jaw is tight, and he hasn't taken his eyes off of Will’s bare chest or how casually he moves around your space like he's lived here for years. Will hasn't taken his eyes off you.
What the fuck is he doing here?
He wasn’t listening when you told him I was back in town, was he.
