    Summary

    Belly looks up at him from her lashes, lips upturned, as she goes to grab the fruit. His hand brushes hers, smooth skin warm in the heat, and she moves back to shake her hair from her face while he turns to put another bill in the tin before holding the peach up and biting sharply into it.

    Conrad turns to face her again. She holds the fruit from her face, laughing slightly in disbelief. Her mouth is shiny and wet.

    His heartbeat is loud. A steady, beating drum. “Was it as good?”

    She nods with wide eyes. “Yeah, it was,” Belly says, laughing again as she licks her lips and brings the peach to her mouth again. She turns it over, catching his gaze as she takes another bite, eyes alight; the clank of flint on steel, kindle catching fire.

    Summary

    It feels real, it feels right. Her stomach warms with wine and affection the longer she looks at him, the softer his eyes go, the colder their dinner gets as they giggle and gripe at each other like nothing’s ever broken their hearts. 

    For the first time in a long time, she lets herself think it: I miss you.

    Summary

    Please. A choked sob. A sharp, wet inhale that feels like it was ripped right out of Conrad’s lungs from three thousand miles away. Please, just come fix it.

    Summary

    An incomplete list of things roommates Belly and Conrad will say just this once to:

    1.) Watching TV together when they can’t sleep. (Oops, it becomes a routine rather quickly.)

    2.) Sharing a bed. (A pipe burst in their apartment and they have to get a hotel room, what are they supposed to do?)

    3.) Having sex with each other. (Sexual tension is taut between them, and they’re getting it out of their system. But then they’re doing it again. And again, and then one last time, for real . . . Fifth time’s the charm, surely.)

    What’s next, falling in love? Yeah, right.

    Summary

    I’m looking at her, which is how I notice her picking the peach slices off the melted ice cream and eating them, one by one, with her fingers. She closes her eyes, and I wonder if we’re stuck in the same memory. I could live in it forever, I could, but I need to stop clinging to the past.

    “Belly?”

    “Yeah?”

    “If you need somewhere to stay while looking for a place of your own, I have a spare room.”

    (or: 3 times Conrad watches Belly eat peaches, and one time where they eat them together.)
