    Summary

    “Look,” Sveta says, and Rose follows her gaze to where the men are exiting the living room. “The boys are leaving. We’ve got the room to ourselves. What should we do?” Sveta’s gaze drops down to Rose’s lips, and Rose sits up, putting her wine glass on the coffee table. Sveta follows suit.

    Is she really about to do this? It’s not really cheating, if Shane knows about it.

    “I can hear you thinking,” Sveta purrs. “Tell me.”

    Rose swallows. “Is this the real reason you invited us over? Not for a wife swap, exactly, but a spouse swap?”

    Sveta laughs. “Yes,” she admits. “It was our plan the whole time. Ilyusha has had a crush for… Oh, how long since the draft? And I…” She tucks a lock of hair behind Rose’s ear. “Had a crush too.”

    “Had?” Rose asks.

    “Have.” Sveta is very close to her now. It would barely take any movement at all to lean in and kiss her. So she does.

    Summary

    They sit in comfortable silence for a while, watching the cars pass by. Will teaches her the ‘yellow car’ game when he lightly punches her arm as a taxi drives by. Him and Jonathan used to play it when they went on those very few roadtrips as kids.

    “Hey Will?” She asks eventually, turning to face him.

    “Yeah?” He mirrors her position.

    “The kids at school, back in Leonora, they figured us out.”

    “The freak twins.”

     

     

    or; El teaches Will how to spy on people and they end up spying quite the important scene

    Summary

    The sides of his hands rest on the sides of her neck, and he can feel her pulse.

    And it’s just as miraculous as it is every time Lucas feels it. This tiny, beating proof that Max is alive. The steady drumming against his skin that feels like solid fucking proof that there’s something above the sky, that there’s something in the world that’s worth fighting for.

    Summary

    She doesn’t think she’s doing better, but she also doesn’t think she’s been feeling any worse than she used to. She used to feel bad, all the time, but now she doesn’t think she feels bad. She doesn’t think she feels anything, most of the time. Like there’s an empty shelf in her chest that’s gathering dust.

    Lucas notices. He tries to kiss her better, and it doesn’t work, but she likes the effort.
