    Summary

    Shane stared up at the ceiling. Everything he’d been keeping inside for the last month was threatening to boil over into a ugly mess, and his eyes stung. “I thought that if I could just ignore it, it would go away. I thought that if I gave it more time, I’d keep myself from doing something drastic.”

    He rubbed at his face and kept his hands there, a shield to protect him from the weight of the decision he couldn’t keep running from. “It’s been weeks, and I don’t know what to do. I feel sick every time I think about going back, but…” He looked at Ilya and saw the blue eyes there creased with concern, sadness, and that simmering anger at everything that had ever hurt Shane. He sniffed. “I don’t think I’m strong enough to leave. Leaving feels like giving up. But so does staying.”

    “No.” Ilya shook his head and shuffled forward so his body was mirroring Shane’s, twin parentheses encompassing their shared years in between worn bodies. “No, my love.”

    Or: After the playoffs end for Montreal and Ottawa, Shane has a decision to make. His relationship with the Metros is on thin ice, and it might take a couple Centaurs to break it for good.

    Summary

    “Please, Min! Yunho’s a great guy, but he’s a bit of a pushover. And I worry what might happen to him if he doesn’t have anyone around to fend off all the crazies that throw themselves at his feet day in and day out. He’s really just a big softie at heart, but so so terrible at saying no," San all but begged.

    Hmm, sounded more to Mingi like the bull in question was just a big playboy, but alright. He'd never actually met Yunho personally, of course -he’d learned his lesson when it came to bulls- but the stories floating around campus about him were rather telling. Not to mention impressive.

    “Plus,” Wooyoung added, “don’t you need someone to help milk you? Or at the very least remind you to do it two to three times a day?”

    Summary

    But what Lenore Dove hates is how her shyness changes the way people in the Covey treat her. Even as she developed breasts, even as the baby fat left her cheeks and the sound of her voice matured, they continued to treat her like a child, one whose “innocence” was never to be tampered with. If someone made a dirty joke, a Covey member would playfully cover her ears. If she tried to drink the liquor offered to her during concerts, they would snatch the bottle away from her, shaking their heads in mock disapproval. She knows it’s a joke, that they’re teasing her, but beneath the humorous remarks, there’s a hint of truth. That they believe her to be innocent, pure, too pure for sex or alcohol or any of the other numerous “adult” parts of life that others her age have begun to indulge in. This is their perception of her, and she has not been able to shake it, no matter how hard she tries.

    Lenore Dove does not feel innocent. She does not feel pure. At least, not in the way they perceive her to be.

    Summary

    “Here,” Haymitch says, but the gumdrop slips from his shaking fingers. They both laugh, but when he picks it back up, his smile falters. Huh. These aren’t the rainbow gumdrops he got for her. Instead, they're all just one color — red.

    “Now you’re home, I guess I can eat the others.” Lenore Dove tells him.

    "What others?"
