What’s worse is how easily Isaac and Andrew keep giving in.

Public Enemy, Undercover Lover

“Art History?” Isaac said after a beat.


“A bachelor’s in Police Science requires credits in arts and humanities, too.”


“Why did you have to say we dated?” Andrew dropped his head back with a groan. “So, we’re both…equal opportunity. That doesn’t make this any less weird.”


“Better than admitting I screwed my arresting officer and assisted in two hand-jobs yesterday.”


“I can’t believe all that happened, and you still thought I was straight.”


“People have done crazier things after a breakup.”


“That’s what happened at Christmas, isn’t it?”


There was a brief stint of silence again before Andrew said, “Of course we broke up. I was in a foul mood that night, which I already apologized for. You’re the one who pushed for more when we saw each other yesterday.”


“I did. And do you regret giving in?”
