    Summary

    “I always thought I’d be at least 16,” Scott says. There’s a pause while they both watch Buffy impale a vampire. “But that was when I was, like, nine. Now I think maybe I’ll be older.”

    5 times Tessa and Scott have a conversation about sex and one time they don't. Sort of. Various scenes from their childhood and teenage years.

    Summary

    Travis nods encouragingly. Nat continues. “I…I hated him, Travis. I really, really, fucking did.” She breaks away from his eyes and starts to pick at her nails instead. They’re already pulled raw and red from her attacks. “I used to go to bed at night, and I…I used to fucking hope, I’d fucking wish, that something would- I don’t know- happen to him, I guess. Sometimes…” Tears squeeze from her waterline. She digs into her skin until blood bubbles up like a spring. “Sometimes I wished that he’d die. And then...then he did.”

    She holds her breath, expecting him to shout or reprimand her or spit at her. Expects him to be repulsed, to tell her that she’s horrible, psychotic. She waits and waits and waits. But nothing ever comes. When she dares to look back up, he’s still staring at her, motionless. Just watching.

    Or, Nat and Travis discuss their fathers in the aftermath of Coach Ben's trial.

    Summary

    January is frigid. January is cruel.

    January takes Javi from them.

    In January, she forgets she exists.

    In January, they fuck.

    Desperately. Frequently. Like rabid animals. So rough that it makes her cry.

    In the day they dance around each other in a convoluted orbit. Brushing past each other in the hallway, nudging elbows over the fire, catching blazing glances across the room. Not talking, not verbally acknowledging the others presence, just quietly seeking contact. As if they aren’t desperate for the other’s touch.

    In the night, they fall, colliding together, slipping into bed. They hover, his brown eyes on her hazels, flitting inches apart, grinding jaws and tracing fingers across trembling skin. His hands draw over her waist, and she lets them, inching lower and lower until her body is arching and needy gasps are tumbling from her mouth. It’s gentle and tender, until it isn’t; until the fizzing tension pops and his mouth is suddenly against hers, biting at her lips until they’re kiss dark and swollen.

    Or, Natalie and Travis find a way to make it through the bitter winter.
