Summary
Just as she’s turning away he stops her with a light tug at the straps of her backpack. “Come to a game.”
Victoria doesn’t think he’s ever been told no, she thinks he’s probably never had to ask twice for something. “I’ll think about it,” she replies, trying to keep her voice as calm as she can. She thinks she succeeds as he gives her one last smile before he turns back to his studying.
or: the hockey au/wag au no one asked for.

Summary
Now that Ellie’s alone, she just sits on her bed and looks at her book. She can’t call it reading anymore – by now she has read the thing front to back so many times that she could quote some paragraphs word for word.
That’s why it’s weird that it took her so long to notice the message written on the front page.
There, nestled just below the title, there’s one line of writing addressed to her. It doesn’t mention any names, but it is for her. It can’t be otherwise.
It’s not Tommy’s handwriting, nor Maria's, nor Riley's.But it’s somebody’s. Somebody who knew she’d like to read about Moon landing, spaceships, and astronauts. Somebody who cared enough to take this book, fix the hardcover with some scotch tape, and give it to her. Somebody who wrote those words on the front page knowing that they would make her smile.
Somebody who loved her.
It’s late spring 2024 when Ellie wakes up in Jackson. She has a backpack full of books, a burn on her arm, and no memory of how she went from Boston QZ to Wyoming.

Summary
“Maybe I should sleep here tonight,” Ellie confesses, reaching for her blanket and weakly wrapping it around her. “You can make sure my arm doesn’t peel off in the middle of the night.”
Joel’s face pales at the image; but, he still reaches forward and finishes wrapping the blanket more snuggly around her, tucking her in. “It’d be my greatest honor,” he says.
Ellie could easily poke back in jest, but when he presses a kiss to her temple she realizes that maybe his heart is as exposed and raw as hers. That’s maybe, wrapping her up in a blanket, feeding her soup, and trying to kiss the physical pain away really is his greatest honor. She doesn’t have any reason not to believe him.
After all, he’s always been a terrible liar.
or;
Ellie, Joel, and a collection of important late night sleepovers.
