Summary
Rebecca’s contact photo pops up on the map and he takes a moment to admire it, as he always does when he sees it, the silly photo he’d taken of her with her eyes crossed and her tongue out. It was a group evening at The Crown & Anchor after they’d all had a few drinks, bodies warm and laughter easy. It brings a smile to his face every time it comes up.
Pulling his attention away from her picture, he focuses on the location pin.

Summary
He slips when he bursts out of his door and onto Paved Court, the stones slick with the rain that’s roaring down relentlessly. Water rolls down his neck and his t-shirt chafes uncomfortably where it clings to his skin, and he has to push back the hair from his eyes by the time he breaks onto the grass on the Green.
There’s a flash of lightning in the distance, followed by a roll of thunder that reverberates in his bones, and yet somehow the epitome of the raw power of the Gods has nothing on the thundering of his heart in his chest.
Please Lord — not her.
“I’m almost there,” he pants into the receiver. “It’s gonna be okay.”
Jolts of pain flash up his legs with each thundering step, the harsh impact of his footfalls kicking up water when he stumbles through a puddle entrapped in the uneven surface of the sidewalk; he’s never run so fast in his life.
And yet somehow he knows it’s not fast enough.

Summary
'Their eyes hit him first, those all too familiar irises, but the gentle dip in their cheeks with their smile just about knocks the wind out of him. They’re the same dimples that've stared back at him in the mirror every day of his life, the same dimples Rebecca had traced with her finger that night in bed, the rising daylight highlighting each sun freckle that dotted her nose.'

Summary
The realization hit him like a truck.
“He wants me to stop makin’ you biscuits,” he finished for her, because she looked like trying to find the right words was agony, and he could never see her in pain without trying to end it. But still, it felt like he’d taken the pain in her voice, in her body, and stuck himself with it. A knife in the ribs. “I see.”
