    Summary

    After avoiding any sign of her past heartbreak for years, Belly returns home for Christmas and is surprised by an unexpected holiday guest. Will the spirit of the holidays bring them together, or is their reunion not meant to last?

    Just a short (belated) holiday story.

     

    “Conrad is here,” The only sound was the blinker as Steven navigated toward their next exit, “Say something.”

    “Here where?” Her heart was sputtering into her throat, “What do you mean?”

    The last time she had seen or spoken to Conrad Fisher was the morning of her wedding. Her almost wedding. It had been a goodbye.

    She had avoided the east coast for the most part since then. She had avoided him and their shared heartache. The act of avoidance had run its course. It was time to face the heart she broke, the heart she still yearned for.

    Summary

    “You’d be surprised by the amount of power and influence you have over a person, Isabel.”

    Belly swallows, her full name coming from his mouth making her feel lightheaded all of a sudden. “Is that so? You’re not by any chance referring to one person in particular, are you?”

    Conrad makes a face. “Oh god, that guy? You have terrible power over that guy, endless amounts. You could tell him to follow you anywhere and he’d probably go, just like that.” He whispers quietly, brushing back her hair.

    Belly blushes. “Good thing the only place I want him to be right now is where he is.”

    He buries his face against her neck. “Good thing.” He whispers before beginning to kiss her.

    Summary

    'My husband used to write me long love letters as well.'

    Colin flinched, the pen slipping from his hand at the sound of her voice. The housekeeper stood over him, holding onto a silver tray.

    ‘I beg your pardon?’ he said.

    ***

    OR:

    Although Colin sends letters like clockwork, he receives no reply from his friend, Penelope Featherington.

    Is this what it feels like to lose one's mind?

    Summary

    “Wanna practice kissing again?” Charlie whispered, warm breath infused with Moscato and sweet berries tickling Nick’s ear.

    Nick’s eyes, dazed like peering through a veil of melted honey, widened.

    “I–” Nick breathed, gripping the cup in his hand with so much force he thought the plastic might crack. “Yes.”

    “Yeah?” Charlie asked, batting thick, dark lashes up at Nick’s flustered expression. “You don’t have to say yes, you know.”

    “I can’t imagine ever saying no to you."


    or, the one where nick has his first date with a boy and is nervous about what comes afterwards. charlie, his best friend, offers to help.
