Summary
It isn’t until Nicky calls him ’sweetheart’ that Joe realizes he’s in the shit.
Five thousand words of pure, indulgent smut, hanging delicately from a sweetly domestic framing device. With some dirty talk, just for flavor.

Summary
The pounding came again. Nicky’s hands dropped to his apron, absentmindedly wiping the butter off his hands as he walked to the door. He looked through the peephole to make sure it wasn’t a mugger or robbers.
He would’ve been less surprised if it was the Queen herself.
Tall, unfortunately handsome, his shirt and apron soaked through in the rain and his curls dripping over his head. Nicky blinked but nope, it was still his arch-nemesis. Nicky rocked back on his heels, wondering why on earth Joe Al-Kaysani would be at his back door in the middle of the night.
In which:
Nicky and Joe's bakeries share an alley and their competitive nature has gotten the better of them for years. Until one stormy night.

Summary
Just above his eyeline, in dark purple Sharpie, is an addition so recent the ink is still a little wet.
For a good time, call Nicky. Ask him about eating sushi with a fork.
Underneath it is a phone number.Joe isn’t sure how long he stands there, staring at the words, before he says, out loud, “Is... is that a euphemism?”

Summary
"Your word was gift to me."
Nicolo wishes he had the words to reach out and envelop around Yusuf, to drape him in compassion, in apology, in regret. But he has no words for this,
or;
Five times Nicolo struggled to find the right words to say, and one time he did not.
