Summary
Jake fumbled the ball in his hand as he looked up to meet the passing gaze of his second stranger for the evening. Every bit of air rushed out of the room. His heartbeat roared loud in his ears. The belated, inordinately loud thunk from the ball hitting the table made him flinch, but he was grateful for the distraction it provided to tear his gaze away from dark, soulful eyes and outdated moustaches.
or... when Bradley and Jake’s best friends start dating it just makes sense that they’d also start hanging out, that's all there is to it

Summary
Maverick doesn’t regret it when he takes the hit, when the last thing he hears before he ejects is Rooster screaming his name.
But then he wakes. Not to a vast, white snowfield behind enemy lines—but to an inverted cockpit of an F-14.
And to Goose, alive and well in the seat behind him.
—
Or; the time-travel fix-it in which TG:M Maverick wakes up at the start of TG (1986).

Summary
Bradley shrugs. “No one there knows about us yet. We didn’t really get together until after we graduated, and I don’t know about you, but I haven’t really mentioned to anyone that I’m dating the Jake Seresin.”
“Are you trying to decide how to tell them?” Jake asks.
Bradley settles back into his chair. “Actually, I was considering what would happen if we didn’t.”
“If we didn’t tell them?”
A mischievous grin appears on Bradley’s face, and holy shit, that’s another one of Jake’s favorite expressions.
“I was thinking about challenging you to a competition.”
Jake grins. “I’m listening.”

And thus, Fire Lieutenant Bradley Bradshaw has been working at San Diego Fire Department for close to fourteen years when the Dagger Squad is assembled for a special detachment.
Or, 5 times Jake crossed paths with Fire Lieutenant Bradshaw and 1 time he met Maverick's son

Summary
“Ghost?”
“Soap.” Ghost’s voice was a low buzz, gravelly with static. In the absolute silence of the snow-covered forest, it sounded both deafeningly loud and intimately quiet.
“What’s your favourite season?” Soap asked.
-
Four seasons, five countries, six months.
