Summary
I never truly feared the Others. Hated, yes. Misunderstood, yes - Evan Walker was a prime example. But fear? I was always too engulfed with wanting to destroy the things that took my family and friends and livelihood way from me. Even when I came face to face with the core being of the Others on the mothership, I was never afraid. But now, I can confidently say that I am afraid of what happened to me inside of that ship.

Summary
She didn't speak, almost didn't dare breathe. She was too afraid of him disappearing. He placed his face in the juncture of her neck and breathed. When she felt a slight tickle near her rib cage, she realized that he was playing with her hair the same way that he had done all those years ago.
"I don't know how to be without you," he whispered into her skin.
Belly's breath hitched. She could feel his arms tightening around her, pulling her in. He was a warm contrast against the cold air and his skin was soft as she lightly traced the hands pressed against her stomach.
"Say something," Conrad pleaded.
"We don't work," she whispered, shaking her head slowly. She couldn't turn around, couldn't look at his face. "We've tried, Conrad."

Summary
With the memories comes the recognition that everyone must be able to see through my mask. They must be able to realize that I am not who they need me to be. I can see right through the character that I've built, someone strong and capable of killing without screaming through nightmares, without scratching my skin raw simply to distract myself from the pain inside of me. I'm not that person, that perfect soldier that everyone deems me as. I'm weak, selfish.

Uh oh, I'm falling in love. Oh no, I'm falling in love. Oh, I'm falling in love.

Summary
She knew he couldn't feel it, her hypersensitivity simply a side effect of her feelings toward the boy behind her. She could smell the gin on his breath, could feel the heat radiating off of his body. She felt lightheaded.
She wants to tell him. She wants to tell him that it could be so easy, this groove that they continuously find themselves in. It could be so easy to just slap a label on it and call it a day, add some intentional affection here and there--okay, everywhere--and create a life together.
