    Summary

    Lucy doesn't find out what it's like to kiss Tim until eight months after they start fucking.

    They’ve both just come and he’s still softening inside of her when suddenly his lips are on hers, hard and punishing with more than a hint of teeth. It’s not unlike he’s trying to devour her.

    To say that Lucy isn't expecting it would be an understatement. There are rules to this thing—unspoken though they may be—rigid, inflexible rules she's had to work out for herself through trial and error, and by now she knows what is and isn't allowed.

    They always meet at Tim’s house. They don't touch gently or slowly or after they've come. They don’t leave marks where they can be seen. They don't talk during. They don’t talk about it after. They don't stay.

    Summary

    She watches as Enid hesitates, then finally toes off her shoes and crawls onto the bed. The mattress dips under her weight. She doesn’t press against Wednesday at first. She just sits there, close enough that their shoulders brush.

    It’s strange, having her this near without the usual flurry of noise and motion. Warmth radiates off her, steady and unyielding. It seeps through the hospital gown and into Wednesday’s skin.

    Enid exhales, slower this time, the fight in her shoulders loosening. “You scared me so bad.”

    “I’ll try not to do it again,” Wednesday says, though she knows her tone makes it sound less like a promise and more like a reluctant compromise.

    Summary

    The courtroom was cold, not from air conditioning, but from the way her parents refused to look at her.
    Zoey sat still on the too-tall chair, her legs numb, fingers twisted into the hem of her dress until her knuckles went white. No one asked how she was. No one asked what she wanted. She just sat there. Listening. Absorbing.
    Her mother was yelling again. Her father was laughing in that fake, sharp way that meant he was angry and trying to pretend he wasn’t. The judge looked tired. The lawyers looked bored. Everyone had folders and coffee. Everyone had opinions.
    “You don’t love her.”
    “You only want her so you don’t have to pay me.”
    “She cries every time she leaves my house.”
    “She’s scared of you.”
    “She said she wants to stay with me.”

    Summary

    “So, we only have to go one way. Get in, get out the back door with the art, ditch the party.”

    “Seems easy enough,” says One.

    He gets the least-favourite protein pack at dinner that night, because he's jinxed them all.
