    Summary

    “Thank you,” she says, sincerely, curling up against him. Her head lands comfortably on his chest, listening to the sound of his breath and the beat of his heart. That, that, that feels like home, she thinks. No matter where she is in the world, no matter what she does, this will always be the feeling of coming back home.

     

    “For what?”

     

    “For believing in me. Even when nobody else does.”

    Summary

    "You know what your problem is?" He steps closer, close enough that she has to tilt her head back to meet his eyes. "You're so afraid of feeling something that you'd rather feel nothing at all. You'd rather be miserable and 'serene' than happy and—"

    "Than what? What's the alternative? Let myself care about you and then watch it destroy everything I've built?"

    "Who says it has to destroy anything?"

    "History. Experience. Every Jedi who's ever fallen because they couldn't control their attachments."

    "Or maybe they fell because their Order made them so afraid of attachment that they never learned how to handle it. Maybe if someone had just let them feel—"

    Samira is a Jedi Knight who knows her Code by heart. Jack is the smuggler who makes her want to forget it entirely.

    Summary

    Life has occasioned to kick Jack Abbot in the teeth more times than he can count. More times than he has fingers, more times than the five toes he lost or the five toes he still has. He keeps this in mind when Samira Mohan emails him asking permission to submit the article they co-authored two summers ago, Efficacy and Complications of Intracardiac Pigtail Catheterization in the Emergency Room Setting, to present at a conference in Philadelphia.

    He has not seen her for almost two years. It took six months for him to get her new phone number, and another six months after that to convince her that he really meant it when he said that he wanted to keep in touch.

    Summary

    She’s stood at this bus stop every morning for nearly four years and never noticed this coffee shop once. Maybe it’s new. Or maybe she’s been so wrapped up in her routine that she never stopped to look up.

    or

    Samira misses her bus and stumbles across a coffee shop in her neighborhood.

    Summary

    His face comes into focus then: hazel eyes watching her with an expression she doesn’t recognize, grey hair damp and curling.

    “That’s it,” he says. “You with me?”

    She nods, the movement slightly hindered by the hand still cupping her face. He leaves it there as he slides the other up to press two fingers to her carotid. She’s watched him perform miracles with these hands—has seen him blind cric a patient without an ounce of hesitation—but she realizes now that he is shaking.

    Summary

    All that to say, it was difficult for him to understand just how Samira Mohan seemed to sneak up on him. How she managed to take root in his life as if she’d been planted there beside him all along.

    In hindsight, he could see that finding her red-eyed and flustered had been the beginning of something. He had, unthinkingly, taken the leap from professional to personal. Jack hadn’t seen it that way. His mental file on Samira Mohan was long; nowhere within it had he noted that she was the type to cry at work or leave early.

    Jack was worried about her. So what?

    A rambling four year character study examining just how Samira snuck up on Jack.

    Summary

    The waiter laughs. It sounds genuine. He turns to her. “You have a secret admirer, ma'am.”

    “The worst kept secret,” she says. She can hardly look at Jack. He's grinning at her, his eyes pretty and almost mean. He's bullying her, she decides. There was no need to make her so giggly and moon-eyed and fucking wet in public the way he does. She sweeps her hair back, pearl earrings clicking gently together, exposing the column of her neck to Jack as she leans in toward the waiter. He plays his part well, and lends her his ear.

    “I've got the biggest crush on him too,” she says, a conspiratorial whisper.

    Jack doesn't move from the corner of her eye. She already knows. He's looking at her, sly, silver smile, a slight tension in his mouth as he holds back his tongue. Yeah, Mohan? Show me, baby.

    Jack decides to tattoo his wedding ring before they decide on a wedding.

    Summary

    A slow grin spreads across Jack’s face. “You think I’m handsome?”

    Her cheeks flush, spine straightening. “I also said ridiculous,” she tries to deflect, reaching for her beer.

    “Ridiculously,” he corrects, eyebrows rising, grin deepening his dimple, “followed by handsome.”

    She doesn't know how to approach it, exactly. Knows what she would do if Jack was a patient, a real one, how she'd talk long enough to get her hands on him for an examination. As it is, she's frozen, isn't even sure how to ask. Can I touch you? You're bleeding and also it's all I think about.

    Summary

    It’s not long before he finds the JA hidden near her wrist, tucked into a little swirl of vines. He presses his lips to it and stays there for a moment, breathing in her scent. He’s being very gentle, which would be touching if it didn’t make her want to grab him and pull him in by the collar.

    She wants her daughter to be respected and loved. She hopes Jack is the man for the job. She does not want to be the villain in Samira’s story if she determines that he is not. But even if protecting Samira and becoming the bad guy is a more painful path, it is one Rhea will take if the alternative is sitting quietly on the sidelines and watching her daughter be treated in any way less than what she deserves.

    Summary

    Frank turned to face her again — and for the first time in their ten years, he looked at Mel as though he didn't know the person standing in front of him.

    Her breath caught, lips clamped shut as if she'd already said too much and nothing at all, all of it years too late. 

    "Why would you tell me this now?" he asked, disbelief sharpening his voice. "Why would you even think I wanted to know that?" 

    Mel's mouth opened and closed around nothing, her grip on her racquet going slack. "I just... I wanted you to know."

    Frank’s expression hardened as he stepped toward the door. “After this game,” he said, not looking back, “we’re done.”
