    Summary

    The double doors open with a thwack as she pads into the kitchen, humming a song in French off-key. And there, standing at the kitchen island in seersucker swim trunks and a white tee, is… a man. A stranger. Belly feels sort of like a fucking idiot, because she sees this stranger and it’s like a chorus of angels starts playing in her head. Or, like, at least a Taylor Swift song.

    (Newly home from Paris, Belly decides to take a job babysitting a rich family's mansion on Cape Cod for the winter. She expects nine months of studying for the GRE, watering plants, and watching old movies. She does not expect their very hot twenty-four-year-old son to start showing up).

    Summary

    Tonight’s dream had his mouth front and center: lips pursed in concentration as he slid a ring onto his middle finger. It switches, and he’s helping her putting on a bracelet while maintaining heated eye contact, his lips parting, his breathing’s slightly ragged as he slowly zips up her dress with one hand on the small of her back. Then the dream switches again, and his hands are in her hair, resting on the top of her thigh as he whispers, spread your legs a little for me?, then his fingers slipping inside her while she clutches at him, her nails digging into his shoulders.

    She wakes up breathing heavily, the phantom press of his mouth lingering as though he’s actually here, actually beside her.

    Summary

    “Hey, Jere,” Conrad says easily, holding the phone up to his ear, and Belly's eyes go wide. “Yeah, not too bad, man. You?”

    He wanders over to sit down on the couch beside her, one—ridiculously large, long-fingered, watch-adorned—hand squeezing her thigh in apology and a gentle smile on his face just for her. It sets her body on fire. 

    Fuck it, Belly thinks, and sinks to her knees.

    Summary

    “I make my ramen the way a friend taught me in eleventh grade. Every fall, I listen to a playlist made for me by a boy I drove across a border to hook up with. I eat sushi because a girl who won’t talk to me anymore made me try it, and Indian food because my best friend’s parents ordered for me before I knew what I liked. There are movies I love because someone I loved loved them first. I am a mosaic of everyone I’ve ever loved, even for a heartbeat.”

    (Isabel Conklin is made of memories. Conrad Fisher has been forever changed.)
