Title: The Tangles of My Heart
Author: angelita26
Rating: PG-13
Characters and/or Pairing: As fictional characters: Matt/Tim, Diahann, Marsha, Andrew
Warning: Permanent injury of a main character.
Word Count: ~2100
Summary: Bookstore AU. Matt and Tim's fourth date is awkward.

Notes: 1) Thanks to embroiderama for the prompt that has eaten my brain and the encouragement, and for offering some great advice about this date in particular. 2) Title from the All-American Rejects song, "Swing, Swing".

( Tim got caught up in a major deal at his office and didn't get to see Matt again for a few days. They still texted and FaceTimed a couple of times, but that wasn't the same as a face-to-face meeting, no matter what the Apple ad campaign told you. )
