    Summary

    “I won’t have to tell him, he’ll just know,” Shitty countered. “The next time you see him. He’s gonna be able to smell it on you.”

    “He’s not a bomb-sniffing dog, Shitty, Jesus.”

    Dex appeared over Derek’s shoulder. “Did you say something about a bomb?”

    Derek sighed, world-weary. He was so fucking done with this day. “Sorry, bad choice of words when there’s a bunch of fucking first responders in my living room.”

    Summary

    Baltimore was particularly troubling, though. What was there to do in Baltimore? Surely there weren’t the kind of tech companies Dex had been hoping to work for there. Derek had done a lot of research on the city when he was applying to Johns Hopkins—

    Derek’s blood turned to ice in his veins, and he sat on his bed, frozen for a few moments. Sparing a quick glance at Dex, who was still fully immersed in his coding, Derek minimized his thesis.

    On his desktop there were four folders, one for each of the MFA programs he applied to. In each one he stored copies of his applications, writing samples, and recommendation letters. The folders were sorted in alphabetical order. Brown. Columbia. Emerson. Johns Hopkins.

    Providence. New York. Boston. Baltimore.

    (In which Dex has only applied to jobs in cities that Nursey has applied to grad schools in. They are Not Together)

    Summary

    Dex never claimed to be good at hiding how he felt about things. Some would say that he was a hot head. Others would say that he didn’t always think before he spoke. He would say that he wore his heart on his sleeve, even when he wished he didn’t. So, it wasn’t a surprise when everyone on his team realized how he really felt about Nursey.
