    Summary

    Gideon breathed out shakily. With her spare hand, she pulled out the strips, rubbing her fingers over the soft fabric. “You,” she began, then swallowed. Her mouth was so dry. She started again. “You want me to use this on you?”

    Above her, on the bed, Harrow buried her face in her hands and flung herself back down onto the mattress. “You don’t have to,” she said, voice muffled by her fingers. “I just thought, maybe…”

    “No, no,” Gideon said quickly. “I like, definitely have to. I have to right now.”

    ---

    Harrow purchases a gift for Gideon (and for herself, too).

    Summary

    But more than that, Alex knows that the more people he tells about the breakup, the more real it becomes. Once it’s real, it’s unfixable. Alex is holding onto hope, tragically, pathetically, like a sailor on a stormy sea grasping for a plank of his splintered raft, like somehow that will magically transport him to shore, where everything will be okay.

    He’s starting to think he wouldn’t recognize the shore if he saw it. All he knows is ocean and rain.

    Summary

    When she walks into the kitchen, there’s a shocking amount of people crammed inside. The alcohol is here, though, so on second thought, Harrow thinks, maybe not so shocking. It’s impossible to see everything at one glance, so she’s resigned to making her way around the whole damn room when she hears it.

    Fucking Gideon Nav. Laughing. Loudly.
