Envy! Yes, that worked beautifully--Cowley wondering what it was that Doyle had in him that made him overcome the difficulties. (And, being me, I can't help but think that it was because he had to be back on the job with Bodie.) And then you turned that near-disaster, all unknown to Cowley, into a new beginning for the lads! Very neat.

Without conscious direction, Bodie's hands came up and wrapped themselves around the base of Doyle's skull, fingers buried in the long hair, thumbs gently framing the uneven cheekbones.

Neither spoke. Only the sound of their breathing, suddenly loud in the silence, could be heard.

Oh, I love that moment! Thank you very much!
