    Summary

    But before she made it to the cliff that night, there was the backhanded slap.

    The knife to her throat.

    The knife in her hand. Screaming.

    And the burn mark, that was still there now.

    Or

    Post-rescue. Shauna and Melissa reconnect 6 weeks after rescue, but what are they to each other now? And what happened in the wilderness?

    Summary

    “My mom’s going to stay at her new boyfriend’s place tonight,” Shauna’s measured voice crackles through the handset of Melissa’s bedroom phone, “You should uh, come over and watch a movie.”

     

    “Sure,” Melissa replies, too fast, bright and breathless.

     

    ——

    Or, the one where friends with benefits Shauna and Melissa have a movie night that totally isn’t a date.

    “I get it,” Shauna snaps.

    Summary

    It was Saturday night, and Melissa had no excuses or desire. She didn’t want to go to the party and had made that clear. But Gen insisted—again. Melissa was too tired to argue, and part of her didn’t want to face the guilt trip that would follow if she stayed home. She didn’t even know whose house it was, but one thing was certain: she’d rather be doing anything else.

    Once at the party, Melissa felt out of place, surrounded by noise and people she didn’t know. She wandered around until she found a quiet spot on the second floor, where she could finally breathe and smoke her blunt. Just as she began to relax, someone entered her space—Shauna Shipman. Neither of them said much at first, but the silence between them was comfortable, almost as if they were meant to meet there. Melissa, still trying to manage her nerves, handed Shauna the blunt when she asked for it. The brief moment of connection made Melissa’s heart race.
