    Summary

    The knock on Rebecca’s office door is habitual. Ted’s done this a hundred times before, in the morning with biscuits, in the evening with stories about his day and it is always the same. 

    Except today, it isn’t.

    He pushes the ajar door open, expecting Rebecca to be immersed in paperwork or emails, a tea cup on her desk but the sight stops him cold. 

    She isn’t alone.

    Matthijs is there, standing close as she gathers her belongings, laughing at something he’s said. The sound hits Ted like a sucker punch. 

    Rebecca’s laugh has never hurt before. 

    This is a story about how two years apart changed Ted and Rebecca's bond.

    Summary

    When Ted has to go back to Kansas for two weeks to attend his cousin’s wedding, he’s hit with anxiety about going and having to see old family (and Michelle and Jake). Wanting to help, Rebecca offers to go with him. But on their arrival, Ted’s cousin and her wife-to-be assume they’re a couple and are so happy to see Ted with his ‘girlfriend’ that neither Ted nor Rebecca can bring themselves to correct them. That’s when they come up with the plan - if they’re fake dating, and everyone thinks Ted there with Rebecca as his partner, maybe this whole thing with his family will be a bit easier? Only neither of them factor into this plan that they’re both secretly in love with the other. Both believing they’re too broken to ever be good enough.

    But now they’re on a healing journey, with some help from those around them.

    Each chapter is inspired by a song from Noah Kahan’s album stick season we’ll all be here forever

    Now complete - continued in the sequel I Won’t Be Alone For the Rest of My Life

    Summary

    At age sixteen, Ed had figured it was even odds that the toll he would pay for his brother’s life was his own death, and he’d made his peace with it.

     

    At age twenty-three, sometimes he wondered if death would have been a kinder toll.

     

    Seven years after the Promised Day, Edward Elric's past finally begins to catch up with him despite his best efforts to outrun it. As he struggles with everything he's sacrificed to get to where he is and with finding a place where he can belong now that everything's said and done, he finds support in a place he never would've expected.
