Summary
“You look so good in white,” Michaela murmured. Francesca melted back into her at her words.
“We aren't supposed to be doing this anymore,” Francesca reminded her quietly. “I’m with John now."
“You’ve been with me a lot longer,” Michaela said into her skin.
“That isn’t how that works.” Francesca sputtered with an incredulous laugh. She really shouldn’t be surprised at her audacity anymore.
“OK, then you like me a lot more,” Michaela tried instead.
Francesca sighed. “Michaela.”

Summary
“She thinks… she asked for me when she woke up so they called me. She thinks we’re still engaged.” And curse his tone too for being so sympathetic and emotional when he’s saying something that could come straight from one of Michaela’s nightmares.
“What?” Michaela scoffs. “You haven’t been engaged for-”
“Nearly two years.” He says too calmly, even as her own anxiety worsens. “She doesn’t remember that she broke it off because-” He swallows, still some pain to the statement even with his endless support. He probably loves her as much as Michaela does. He probably felt the same terrified panic that was still easing through her chest now.
“Because of me.” She whispers quietly… not a fact she had known at the time but one she was well aware of now after six months of being with her… they had just moved in together for crying out loud, what does he mean she doesn’t remember?
“She doesn’t remember that.” John’s tone is pained but quiet, gentle as he reaches out toward her, but she flinches away from his grip, her mind struggling to process the information he’s feeding her.
“She doesn’t remember… that she loves me?”

Summary
Francesca brushed her hand across Michaela’s forehead. It was hot, far too hot. Sweat formed at her furrowed brow. She looked to be — in pain.
A droplet of water appeared on Michaela’s cheek. And then another.
Francesca was crying. She had not even realized. She wiped her tears from Michaela’s cheek and then from her own.
She counted Michaela's every breath. When it slowed, she counted her heart beats instead.

Summary
“You have my phone number, right?” she asked softly, as if someone might overhear her, even though they were alone.
Michaela’s eyebrows shot up. “Yes,” she drawled, her tone questioning.
“Well,” Francesca started, eyes darting around. “If you wanted to use it for…non-pick-up-related reasons…” she steeled herself and met Michaela’s gaze then. “That would be alright with me.”
Michaela’s lips slowly spread into a teasing grin. “Oh?” she asked airily.
Her reaction soothed Francesca’s anxiety a notch. “Yeah,” she nodded.
“Alright then,” Michaela winked before she turned around and walked to her car.

Summary
“So explain it to me again?” Eloise asked, her nose scrunching up in confusion.
Francesca sighed. “I am gay. I am dating a woman named Michaela. I met her through her cousin John, whom, at the time, I was dating. So yes, I am dating my ex-boyfriend’s cousin. And we are all still friends.”
“I still don’t get it,” Penelope chimed in.
