Funny, hot, and very sweet, this is the story of Archie, who is wildly in love with his neighbor, Sean the fireman. Since Sean doesn’t do relationships, and Archie doesn’t do one-night stands or hookups, they are at an impasse. That is, until Archie is passed over for promotion and he is so angry at the world for never getting what he wants, that he decides becoming a fuck buddy with Sean is a good idea. Good enough for now, anyway.

But as they experiment with "wild, animalistic" activities in the bedroom, Archie gradually wakes up to the reality that he still loves Sean way more than the big, muscular fireman will ever love him. Seeing the man date someone else is the last straw. Archie throws the towel and decides to tell Sean the truth. He just isn’t built for anything other than monogamy. When Sean wants to talk to him at the same time he's come to this conclusion, the story takes a much-hoped-for-by-me turn, and suddenly both Archie and Sean are facing a new situation.

If you like short stories that are written with a great sense of humor and a main character who doesn't take himself too seriously, if you enjoy it when that same main character then turns around and suffers great emotional upheaval and drama, and if you're looking for a hot read that will make you smile, then you will probably enjoy this entertaining short story.
