Once, you’d thought that the hardest part of work was the public speaking. 

Since the depositions, it’s gotten a little more complicated than that. 

Mark first meets Erica at a party.

When you paint enough layers, you begin to feel old.

Twins become kings; suites become countries; girls become queens.

Mark loves it. This is her favorite place to be, in the world, even more than coding at her laptop or shaking hands with the president (which isn’t as exciting as everyone else may think.) No, here underneath Eduardo, hot and wet against her mouth – this is what Mark loves best.

He is visible through the throng of the crowd, and you are angled to the side, dark suit over your broad shoulders. You see him, in the corner of your eyes. Peripheral, like he is not really there.

In this world, your words are supposed to mark the moment you know you are in love with your soulmate. But Eduardo already has Facebook, has Mark – has long fallen in love with him, now. He doesn’t need to feel the words to know it’s true.

The record lies – the book lies – the movie lies.

Eduardo isn’t sure if it’s healthy that he compares all these little things Eli does to Mark, but he finds that he doesn’t really prefer one to the other—it’s just that they look so much alike that looking for similarities and differences is almost inevitable.
