starter for @lenzimanot
riley can't help but smile ( his mind is fuzzy in the best way , hair slick with sweat ) as he rolls onto his side, taking half the sheets with him. his hand rests on adam's chest and he's almost giddy , given that he'd spent the last twenty years thinking that they'd never get to have this. THAT'S WHEN HE NOTICES HIS BOYFRIEND GLANCE AT THE INSIDE OF HIS WRIST. it's not the first time he's caught adam looking at the tattoo - so he's not surprised when he asks about it.
riley makes a soft sound in the back of his throat and then looks down at his own wrist. "the a is for adam." he admits quietly. "i uh...got really drunk twenty years ago on a night out with the team and....i just...i guess wasted me thought it was a good idea. i woke up the next day and...there it was." & HE'D COVERED IT EVER SINCE , until recently. until he'd finally been able to look at it and love it , instead of hate it.
