    Summary

    Shower time is Maeve’s favourite. Tears get lost amongst all the water, and faking a skin care routine meant Otis would hop in bed, breathe far too fast to actually be asleep and she’d do the same. Neither really wanting to have to be all alone together.

    Otis’s feet hang off the end of the bed, she still smiles at his mismatched socks he wears to bed, even when his back is turned. It’s probably just as well, she hates the way he seems to be able to tell she’s been crying.

    She slips into the sheets next to him, back to back. Unsteady breaths escaping both of them. She squeezes her eyes shut, wishes away the tears and focuses on their daughter in the next room, sleeping peacefully in the house with both her parents. Everything Maeve never had. Everything she ever wished for.

    In the house with big windows.

    - or:

    Maeve and Otis find each other again.

    Summary

    For Ruby, their arrangement is an escape from dire family matters and the monotony of being untouchable. For Otis, their arrangement is a distraction from a hurt he still hasn't properly dealt with and is desperate to ignore. Casual isn't complicated until they complicate it.

    A Season 3 Fix-It.

    Summary

    In another time, in another place, Maeve would have let Otis know about the voicemail Isaac deleted. She would have told Otis how she never heard said message. Maeve would have asked Otis to recite the contents of that message and Otis would have done so. Word for word. But this was not that time. This was not that place.

    Summary

    Rahim shifts uncomfortably in his seat, asking himself for the umpteenth time what exactly he – a proud cat lover – is doing at small-town dog competition of all places, and on a school night, no less. He toys nervously with the leaflet in his hands before he remembers there’s a poem scribbled on the other side of the advertisement of the show he found himself attending, Adam’s frankly horrible handwriting staring at him as if to judge him. He immediately smooths over the paper and sighs.

    What is he doing?

    Summary

    This wasn't supposed to happen. Those stupid lines appearing on the test weren't meant to be there.
    It's like salt into the fresh wounds given by Otis Milburn, who didn't love her. Instead choosing her mortal enemy.
    What was Ruby meant to do now?

    Summary

    Otis asks Ruby to close her eyes, it's easier when he doesn't feel observed.

    "I've only told a girl that I love her once, Ruby. And when I did, she stopped talking to me. It hurt. And now, I'm happy again. You make me really happy, but I'm terrified that if I let it get to that level again, I won't be able to move on from you as easy as I moved on from her. I don't think I ever could."

    Ruby slowly opened her eyes. Otis wasn't looking at her, he didn't see her eyes getting wetter.

    "I know that I need more time. And I'm really sorry that I've not been able to tell you, but if you'll have me I really do want to show you how much I care."

    The room was silent, and Otis let it stay that way for just a moment, before:

    "You can open your eyes now."

    Summary

    “Sex always has consequences” – that’s what Otis was used to say to himself and so far he hasn’t met any of them, but the moment he starts to feel like his life finally became ‘normal’, his whole world will be turned upside down by his careless actions in the past, bringing a new wave of drama, pain, suffering and possible happiness into the lives of the people he cares about.

    Summary

    Adam frowned, he could feel his throat tightening “I can’t cry, it means I am weak.”

    Ola shook her head and tightened her hold on his knee “No Adam, it means the exact opposite. It means you’re not scared of your emotions, of facing them, of being a human being and of being vulnerable.”

    He exhaled shakily, his vision was becoming blurry.

    “And trust me, you feel better after a good cry”

    He looked at Ola’s blurry face, he should really blink the tears away so they wouldn’t spill out of his eyes but he was exhausted. What if she was right? What if it was okay to cry? What if that was exactly what he needed? What if he did feel a bit better after?

    Or

    After the breakup, Adam finds support in people he wouldn't have expected and goes on a journey to find himself.
