    Summary

    But like so many things in her life, the weight of this overcomes her, and she’s trapped in a familiar misery of her own devising. No matter how much she’s grown in the past few years, it always returns to her: a wild dog she’s made the mistake of feeding too many times. She thought she’d been smart. She’s fought so hard to not get attached; it’s not like she’d given it a name or let it inside her home. But sometimes she wakes up in her bed and and it’s there, watching her sleep with beady eyes, and then it settles on top of her chest and she’ll fall asleep with its teeth sunk in her throat and it’s going to snap her neck like she’s a bird caught its jaws and she loathes it–

    Maybe this analogy isn’t working.

    What's up with Janine's breathing?

    Summary

    “We’re running a special all week for Mother’s Day. Moms and their kids get a discount on any single scoop ice cream.”

    “Oh, no, we’re not-”

    “Yep.” Melissa clasped Jacob’s shoulder, squeezing until he clamped his mouth shut. “Mother and son. Got my eyes and everything. Hey, how much is that discount?”

    Sometimes, Melissa and Jacob pretend that they're mother and son.

    Really, they’re just pretending.

    Summary

    “No. Listen,” Gene pulls Garroth close so their foreheads are touching.

    He smells like Absolut and Fireball.

    “Your boyfri-“

    “He’s not my boyfriend.”

    “Your friend with romantic benefits is way too drunk to drive.”

    “I know, Gene,” Garroth sighs. “That’s why I’m here. Now remove yourself.”

    Or:

    Four times Laurance and Garroth weren't dating plus one time they were.
