    Summary

    Belly thought going to the same college as her high school boyfriend would be a dream come true, only to quickly realize that sometimes the best thing you can do is choose yourself. After deciding to transfer from her East Coast college to Stanford, she's quickly wrapped up in the mysterious and quiet but kind 1st year med student that she can't stop running into or thinking of.

    What happens when you begin to question whether your first love was ever truly love at all?

    OR

    AU fic in which Belly never grew up going to Cousins, so she knows nothing of the Fishers. In every infinite universe, every version of Belly chooses Conrad.

    Summary

    An incomplete list of things roommates Belly and Conrad will say just this once to:

    1.) Watching TV together when they can’t sleep. (Oops, it becomes a routine rather quickly.)

    2.) Sharing a bed. (A pipe burst in their apartment and they have to get a hotel room, what are they supposed to do?)

    3.) Having sex with each other. (Sexual tension is taut between them, and they’re getting it out of their system. But then they’re doing it again. And again, and then one last time, for real . . . Fifth time’s the charm, surely.)

    What’s next, falling in love? Yeah, right.

    Summary

    After returning from Paris, Belly finally moves into Conrad’s quiet California apartment—where mornings feel slower, nights feel warmer, and loving each other no longer hurts.
    Now, for the first time, they get to just be: cooking together, studying together, fighting over blankets and grocery lists, learning how to build a life without running from it.
    With Jeremiah finding his own peace and becoming part of their story again, Belly and Conrad discover that love can grow gently, steadily, and without fear.
    From moving in, to getting married, to the moment they realize they’re no longer just two but growing into a family, this is their softest season yet.

    Summary

    It had been five years since that night, and it still haunted her. Five years since she’d last stepped foot in Cousins, much less on that beach. Five years since everything fell apart.

     

    Belly comes back to Cousins five years after her failed wedding to find a very nerve wracking, yet very pleasant surprise— in the shape of the boy she’d always loved.

    Summary

    His hands are the first thing she notices—large, with long fingers shaped with a kind of deliberate artistry. There's a precision to them, she thinks, in the way they might move, in the way they might touch. Her stomach coils at the thought, but she's unable to look away until the warm weight beside her shifts.

    Jeremiah sits upright on the couch. A jolt of something sharp, like a knife of panic, cuts across his features before he clears his throat, settling into a mask of calm that doesn't quite reach his eyes.

    "Conrad," he greets very quietly, voice taut, "this... this is Belly." He pauses, his jaw locking at a stiff angle. "My girlfriend."

    Conrad, the tall man standing before her with careful hands she imagines are both soft and callused at the same time, immediately looks like he's been punched in the gut.

    Or: Belly, in her grief (and misguided determination), makes a life-altering decision that results in her spending the summer in Cousins with her boyfriend's brother, Conrad, whose gaze carries a heavy weight she doesn't quite understand.
    Loosely inspired by Eternal Sunshine of the Spotless Mind.
