Summary
The guy stared blankly at the commotion behind Andrew before raising his head and regarding Andrew with a defiant glint in his green eyes. They were fucking bright and stupidly attractive, Andrew’s brain unhelpfully supplied. More like screamed at him. Andrew almost smashed his head into the wall to dislodge the thought.
“You need to change the lock, it’s too stiff. Latchbolt has gone to shit.” The guy offered conversationally with a barely noticeable accent, like casually discussing lock mechanisms with a worker who watched you try to break into their storage unsuccessfully in an attempt to escape from two middle aged idiotic creeps was a completely normal occurrence. Maybe Andrew just still wasn’t socialized enough.

Aka, Andrew's first and only night as Eden's bartender is a whirl of gorgeous runaways trying to break into storage rooms and truths being exchanged over cigarette smoke. The guy will be gone by the end of Andrew's shift, and Andrew will never see him again, right?

Summary
He'd never expected to see Abram again, the skittish stray that he was. Here and gone with the wind. A one-night stand that hadn't even involved sex but had left him feeling strangely hollow. It was just an intense attraction, Andrew had tried to cement it in his mind whenever his gaze strayed towards the employee only sign. He had even threatened the staff with cutting off their dicks if they even thought about changing the faulty lock. He was an obsessive, deranged fool who knew better. With his altered appearance Abram was probably sailing around Madagascar, for all Andrew knew.
He was hot, and he was interesting, and he wasn't here. Andrew hated him.
Andrew would've preferred to hate the guy from afar, but he just had to swoop in and stop Andrew from keeping his promises. It was unforgivable. Nicky was getting his face bashed in by a gaggle of insecure homophobic trash, and Andrew couldn't do anything to help him.

Or, Abram beats up four homophobes and Andrew has mixed feelings about it.

Summary
A person burst into the lounge. Andrew's first observations were: short, lean, clutching at a duffle bag, and hot as sin.
With each observation came a punch in the gut because in the place of the Foxes potential new striker sub stood a person Andrew vowed to kill on sight.
“Oh no. No no no no,” Andrew sang flatly. His heart had flat lined. The blood in his veins had frozen over. Abram didn't even have the nerve to flinch. “Kevin, what have you done.”
