Title: Take A Step Before You Leap
Author:

Type: Romance
Word Count: 41,500
Rating: NC-17
Characters/Pairings: Adam/Tommy
Warnings: Canon drug use, internalized homophobia, consent play, verbal descriptions of a rape fantasy.
Summary: Tommy has always insisted he's straight, but he’s an open-minded guy. He has all kinds of friends, and he doesn’t judge any of their actions or preferences. So why is it so difficult for him to accept his own attraction to Adam? This is the story of their relationship, from the first audition to the end of the tour.

Notes: First of all, I need to give a few very special thank-yous to my betas:

andlightplay, for plot discussion and cheerleading;

ciel_vert, for fact-checking all of this canon; and

random_yayness for helping me fix everything and clean it up at the last minute. I couldn't have done it without these ladies. ♥ I also have to thank

lambliffhistory and the awesome people at

rat_bert for supplying such detailed information. And finally, thank you so very much to my artist,

qafmaniac, who turned out some truly awesome graphics for this fic. Check out her art post for more!

This fic has driven me absolutely crazy over the past few months, and I'm so glad to finally be able to share it with you. It's a story that's been in my head since I joined this fandom. I hope you enjoy reading it as much as I've enjoyed writing it. :)
