    Summary

    Matt is caught with a locker full of guns before he’s able to shoot anyone. He’s expelled and his family moves to the other side of the city, where he starts at a new school. He’s been banned from watching movies, creating movies and basically doing anything that would bring him joy.

    He’s also not meant to contact Owen, but if he happens to find a boy in the music room that just happens to remind him of Owen, that’s probably okay. That’s probably healthy. There’s no rules against that.

    Summary

    As Jay wakes up he realizes he had the same dream again. It wasn't identical, but it was in the same unkempt house with the sun setting through the front window, at the same piano. And the man who ruined his life yesterday was wearing a really, really stupid hat. 

    ---
    Matt and Jay are stuck in a cursed world where they never met. Jay is corporate jingle writer, and Matt is the hedge fund manager about to liquidate his office. They don't remember their real lives, or each other. They have a lot of soul searching to do before they can escape.

    Summary

    Two key truths had remained constant for Jay McCarrol since his childhood: one, Matt was always there; and two, Jay had no real sense of direction in his life.

    On the rare occasions in which he had allowed himself to reflect on it, Jay had always ended up reaching the same conclusion: a change in number one must be the key to changing number two.

    After experiencing a timeline without Matt at his side and making the decision to go back to set things right, though, Jay realizes how much he values the life that they have together, and it finally occurs to him that maybe the purpose that he’s been searching for his whole life has been right there in front of him the entire time.

     

    Or, Jay decides to propose to Matt.

    Summary

    Jay watched as Matt took his hat off and dropped it onto the floor. “I feel like you’re messing things up on purpose.”

    “Messing things up on purpose? Maybe I just really need you, Jay. I need you to help me — and you’re accusing me of — what? Lies? You think I’m pulling a munchausen? You’re heartless.”

    “I want to help you,” said Jay, helpfully.

    Matt spun on a dime. “You want to help me? What, are you an — illness pervert?"

    -

    Matt needs it. Jay can give it to him. If only either of them knew what "it" was.
    (AKA, Matt is blind for 48 hours — luckily, he has his b-friend to take care of him.)

    Summary

    He was freaking out.
    “Matt, listen.”
    Matt was drinking water straight from the kitchen faucet in his underwear and an open flannel shirt, not listening. He was barely awake.
    “Matt!”
    “What?” He turned around.
    “I need you on the best behavior of your life today.”
