Why this must be read:
I love a good soulbonding trope, and this one has the twist that the two people bonded can't stand each other -- so they don't want to hang around together, but it hurts to be apart. Quintenttsy also digs a little into the creepy consent issues that rear their heads when you think about soulbonds for too long, which is nifty. This is short but sweet, full of feelings and angst and Working Stuff Out. And soulbonds, don't forget those. *g*


Excerpt:
“Hey.” It’s more of a sigh, of a quiet exhalation of breath than a proper spoken word. Mike sounds exhausted. (Mike is exhausted; Kevin can feel it down to his bones, and it’s not the kind of tired you can fix with a good night’s sleep.) Kevin itches with the need to wrap himself around Mike, to pull him into his arms and squeeze all the hurt out of him.

He curls his hands into fists, tucks them underneath his knees. “I’m sorry,” he says, softly, and Mike shrugs, Kevin’s head slipping off his shoulder.

“I’m not,” he says, and even if their minds weren’t hard-wired together Kevin would know he wasn’t telling the truth.
