Fics like I was on fire for you

He pauses, as if he needs to think over the words carefully. “—We don’t need to talk about what happened, because nothing happened.” Chase stares breathlessly, each word a slap on his skin, an ache that nestles itself deep. Nothing happened. Buddy says it so matter-of-fact, like he’s decided on a truth that Chase has no say in. The hurt turns sharp, the thorns pricking his blood until it quells into a pointed rage, clawing its way up Chase’s throat. “You kissed me, Buddy,” Chase whispers, but it lands like a slap, from how Buddy’s eyes, so blue and dark, widen. Buddy looks away, refusing to make eye contact, “We were in dire circumstances.” “You— why are you—,” Chase sputters, desperate to try and make sense of it. Sense of how Buddy could kiss him so gently, hands holding him like he was a delicate thing, ask to be his hero and then suddenly act like it meant nothing. He clenches his fists, fingernails leaving marks in his palms. “You kissed me like—Like you wanted to.” Or: Chase fumbles his way through asking Buddy to watch the fireworks with him. Nothing more, nothing less. Somehow, Buddy agrees.
