    Summary

    The pact had been simple. One word, and they'd drop everything, meet where it all began.
    Conrad just never expected Belly to actually use it. Not after everything.

     

    (Belly thinks she got it wrong; Conrad is right where she left him)

    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

    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.

    Summary

    "You shouldn't be out here," Conrad says without looking at her, even though he's only here so she can be too. "So close to the water when it's this dark."
    Belly sits down anyway. "Then neither should you."

     

    (Belly kisses Conrad that first night, at the bonfire. somehow everything changes and stays the same.)
