Summary
Ted has always been a physical person. But freshly divorced, he’s not ready to jump back into a relationship. It doesn't change how much he still craves to be touched. To be loved. To be wanted. He’s also not a fan of one-night stands. Never has been.
Rebecca, on the other hand, prefers one-night stands. They aren’t messy or complicated, and she doesn’t have to worry about attachments. However, being as known as she is ever since she won the club in the divorce… one-night stands aren’t really an option. The chances of her partner leaking it to the press wasn’t worth the risk.
That’s where the company Your Secret’s Safe with Me (YSSM) comes in. They specialise in pairing people based on the profiles they’ve built. The air of anonymity they provide means that you can have all the sex you want - no attachments to worry about. And no worries about having your sex life or kinks exposed.

Summary
Everyone on earth is born with a timer on the inside of their wrist. It’s small at first - barely even noticeable when you are first born, but as you grow older, you can slowly start to see the numbers trickling down. When you get a bit older, you start to get curious about the numbers staring back at you, slowly counting down each day.
Ever since Rebecca was eight, she had disliked the idea of having a soulmate. Why did she need someone to complete her? She didn’t. The fact the whole world thought she did pissed her off honestly.
Ted was different. He was a hopeless romantic, and ever since he was old enough to understand what the numbers on his wrist had meant, he tried to pinpoint the exact date of when he was supposed to meet his other half. The moment that would change his life forever. Change his life for the better.

Summary
Ted’s eyes snapped to hers, his heart lurching in his chest. “You- you would do that? Why..? Kansas isn’t exactly a day trip, boss…”
Her face softened, and she set her tea down. “I know, Ted. But. Seven years ago, you were there for me when my father passed. I want to be there for you… I care for you, Ted. Tremendously. Please. Let me do this for you…” she whispered.
He swallowed back tears and nodded slowly, his insides feeling all squiggly and warm.

Summary
Ted woke up with a start, sputtering and confused as could be. He felt like he was drowning, but then it cleared, and he flailed.
“You’re awake!!” a voice he didn’t recognise called at the same time as another strange voice said, “hey, there we are, buddy. How are you feeling?!”
Ted raised his hands and scrubbed at his wet face, “why did you pour water on me!” he huffed as he tried to remember what had happened last. His hands froze when he got to his upper lip and felt no hair there.
