Summary
She looks beautiful sitting at the corner of her bed, Suletta thinks. It's a sacred sight; Miorine in the soft light of the morning sun, Suletta's shirt hanging off her shoulders. It makes her throat dry. Her heart pounds in her ears. She wants to engrave the intimate scene in her mind, a version of Miorine reserved only for her.
It is a simple arrangement, but she wants to break it anyway.
Suletta is falling in love.

“So we’ll have to pretend to be married?” Adora’s face twists to disbelief. “Like — like for the whole vacation?”
“Whether you’re coming or not,” Catra says, “I’m taking the trip. With or without you.”
(Or, Catra's guide to an all-expenses-paid trip to Hawaii:
1. Refuse to eat shellfish.
2. Pretend to be newlyweds with your recently-reconciled-somewhat-estranged childhood friend who you can't stand anymore.It's not an easy thing, but maybe she could play along with it — if things really are that simple.)

Summary
In the private world of high fashion and paparazzi headlines, it's a practiced art to lose a piece of yourself in pursuit of more. It's made to be enticing like that. It's easy to ask for excess when all you had was less.
And when it wears Adora down, breaks down her resolve, taking it apart and apart until there's nothing left, she meets her again.
Catra.
"You need to learn how to be selfish. To take what you want." She trails a finger from her neck to her jaw. It's intimate. It's devastating. "Don't you want me, Adora?"
