Fic rec: White Collar

"Four Meals" by sam_storyteller | Peter/El/Neal | First!time, 3some | Neal is so very tired of saying no. | ~6.600 words

"You okay?" Peter asks, eyes searching Neal's.

Telling Peter he was fine stopped working about eighteen months ago if it ever worked at all. Instead he gives him a wan smile and says, "I need some sleep. Dinner helped, thanks."

Peter will accept that, and it's not untrue, even if it's not actually an answer to his question.

This is a strangely sad fic. Oh, it does have a happy ending, but reading it, it makes you feel... melancholic.
