    Summary

    Disillusioned with his career at the Garrison after yet another promotion takes him out of the field, Shiro retires and buys an old inn online, sight unseen. But there’s a problem: it needs work. There’s also a solution, in the form of Keith: a shy, capable handyman who offers to help Shiro renovate the inn.

    Keith is beautiful and competent and takes care of Shiro without even realizing it; in turn, Shiro finds himself coaxing Keith out of his shell. But when was the last time a renovation went according to plan?

    Summary

    “You got a haircut.”

    Keith freezes, one arm halfway out of his coat sleeve. It’s the brown one with the plaid lining, the one that doesn’t match anything else he owns, but is too practical to get rid of. He pulls it off his other arm and holds it tight to his chest. Shakes his head.

    “Not recently?”

    Shiro frowns.

    Keith dips forward and doesn’t shiver when curious fingers tangle in the hair at the back of his neck. Shiro’s palm feels large on the back of his skull as his fingers fist, gentle, into Keith’s hair, and then relax. He pulls them free, expression thoughtful. Keith watches through his bangs as he straightens up.

    “Been like that for awhile,” he smiles, apologetic.

    Shiro smiles back, tightness between his brows crumbling to an open kind of trust. “Huh. I must’ve… gotten mixed up.”

    Summary

    Though Shiro is currently operating his fledgling bakery business out of a decrepit food truck he got for cheap in a repossession sale, he dreams of something more: a cozy bakery and cafe on a tree-lined street somewhere, filled with the smell of fresh coffee and sugar glaze instead of diesel. A little money could go a long way to helping him get off the ground-- and luckily, Keith has money to burn.

    Or: Keith takes care of Shiro’s financial woes, in exchange for a little sugar.

    Summary

    They cross paths while Keith’s fleeing the scene of a one-sided fight, tearing his way across a field at a breakneck pace with knuckles still smarting from clocking some bullying upperclassman who’d cornered him behind the gym.

    And all Shiro can think about for days after is how desperately he needs the brawling boy with the golden legs to join his football team.
