“There’s the one who knows how to stay alive. Can’t trust Ronan to save himself. He throws his heart and then runs in after it.”

𝘛𝘢𝘮𝘲𝘶𝘢𝘮, said Ronan, and Adam said, 𝘈𝘭𝘵𝘦𝘳 𝘪𝘥𝘦𝘮.
Cicero had written the phrase about Atticus, his dearest friend. 𝘘𝘶𝘪 𝘦𝘴𝘵 𝘵𝘢𝘮𝘲𝘶𝘢𝘮 𝘢𝘭𝘵𝘦𝘳 𝘪𝘥𝘦𝘮. 𝘓𝘪𝘬𝘦 𝘢 𝘴𝘦𝘤𝘰𝘯𝘥 𝘴𝘦𝘭𝘧.

Sometimes Ronan wasn’t sure he knew any of his family.

He and his brother never hugged, but Declan put his hand on Ronan’s warm skull for a second.
Declan said, “Be dangerous.”

[the dreamer trilogy @cdthbot]

Even after Niall died and Ronan and Declan had fought for a year, they’d remained tangled together, because hate binds as strongly as love.

This was his old accent, his Virginia accent, as warming to Ronan as the sun.

This was a thing Hennessy was learning about Ronan Lynch: He always thought he was keeping his secrets by keeping his mouth shut, but he ended up telling them in other ways.

“Nightmares are chemical,” his boyfriend, Adam, had told him once. “Inappropriate adrenaline response to stimulus, possibly related to trauma.”
“Talk dirty to me,” Ronan had replied.

He had blue eyes. People generally think blue eyes are pretty, but his were not. They were not cornflower, sky, baby, indigo, azure. His were iceberg, squall, hypothermia, eventual death.

Ronan. Lynch. A truth, given away. A truth, transcribed forever. He hated it. So much softer to lie.

[the dreamer trilogy @cdthbot]

“Oh.”
There was something about that 𝘖𝘩 that Ronan didn’t like the shape of. It seemed sad. Not as if Adam was sad when he said it. But more like something about that 𝘖𝘩 was going to make Ronan sad.

𝘈𝘥𝘢𝘮.
Ronan missed him like a lung.

In the dream, Ronan stood in Lindenmere, lovely Lindenmere. His forest. His protector and his protected.

“Break will be here in just a few days,” Adam said. He kissed Ronan’s cheek, lightly, and then Ronan’s mouth. “I’m coming back. Be here for me.”

[the dreamer trilogy @cdthbot]

Again and again they spiraled around and through one another, not Ronan-and-Adam but rather one entity that held both of them. They were happy and sad, angry and forgiven, they were wanted, they were wanted, they were wanted.

[the dreamer trilogy @cdthbot]

Goodbye, whatever Declan Lynch would have grown up to be.

“We don’t like your boyfriend, Adam,” Benjy said.
Adam just smiled a private smile as he deftly swept his cards into a stack. “I’m taking the winner away, you guys.”

[the dreamer trilogy @cdthbot]

Ronan had not taken his eyes off Adam Parrish’s body. He was still fixated on it now, his entire posture almost leaning toward him.

Declan was powerless to deny Matthew a thing he wanted anyway, but it was more than that. It was that he’d given up everything and gotten nothing for it in return.
