    Summary

    “Do you still box?” she asked.

    “Um…yeah, a bit,” he answered, smirking while gently dabbing at a little of the blood which had run down her bare arm towards her sleeve.

    “Could you teach me, you think?”

    “To box?”

    “Maybe just a little self-defense?”

    “Yeah, I could teach you, Sansa. Whatever you’d want to learn.”

    "I'll pay you for your time."

    He snorted but not meanly and told her, “You can pay me with your lemon cookies, sweetheart. That’d be plenty for me.”

    **

    Or that awkward moment when you realize the boy from next door has become world-famous and you somehow missed it.

    Summary

    Since Alice had left, something had shifted between us. The intensity of the way he looked at me was striking. Had he always looked at me like that, or was this a new thing? Could I have been that oblivious? I knew he liked me. The good thing about Jacob is he was incredibly forward. I never had to guess. But this felt… different. More profound.

    My feelings were foreign- it had been so long since I had felt this way. My heart beating a little faster, palms sweaty. I wanted to get closer. As close as I could. But Jacob and I were friends. Good friends. Best friends, even. If I kissed him now, I would ruin things. I needed his company like plants needed the sun. That’s what he was. My sunshine.

    If we kissed, I would not be able to undo it. If things went awry. If he had to leave, I would be ruined.

    - An alternate universe where Alice doesn’t see Bella jump and life goes on. Contains the crowd favourites of slow burn, angst and imprinting that doesn’t involve literal children.

    Summary

    “Show me how you kissed her.” Saxon repeats, grinning now, in that mean way that he does when he’s being horrible.

    Lochlan sputters, mouth opening and closing like a goldfish, which just makes Saxon’s eyes glint brighter. “Where?”

    “Where?” Saxon scoffs, like Lochlan’s said something stupid and not a completely reasonable follow up. “On your hand. Where do you think, Loch?”

    -

    Lochlan gets a kissing lesson.
