Summary
“I have been sleeping with someone,” Regina began tentatively, an acute awareness that once she said the words out loud that the madness behind her highly unorthodox situation became all the more real, “whom I absolutely loathe.”

Summary
“How’d you even know where my room is?” Billy asks, because he’s sure as fuck never invited Harrington to his house. Sure as fuck never had him over to hang out. “How’d you know I’d be in here?”
Harrington looks sheepish. Drops his hands from trying to pry off the screen. Screws up his nose, and averts his eyes toward the forest behind Billy’s house, like he’s embarrassed.
He mumbles something to the stairs beneath him, shifts his weight from foot to foot.
“Spit it out.”
“Said, I can smell you,” he grits. His cheeks have gone even redder. “Through the fucking. Walls.”
