   Summary

   “But now he was sitting on the shore, shoes off and feet in the sand, humming to himself between sips of wine. The ocean was always so pretty at night, a soft fog settling over it. He hoped his body made a good source of food for the fish. He hadn’t looked it up. He should’ve.”

   “It was too late to back out now, though.”

   OR

   Ryland Grace is fired from his job and can’t stand to find another purpose in life, so he decides enough is enough and ends it. Simon isn’t so keen on letting this human go.
