Summary
“When he kisses me —” Francesca started, then shook her head. “I don’t feel anything at all,” she whispered.
With whiskey coursing through her veins and the metaphorical sledgehammer in her hand, she sat up to meet Michaela’s gaze once more. “Nothing like when you kissed me.”
“Francesca,” Michaela hissed, eyes screwing shut.

Summary
“Hiya,” she heard her call just as she did.
Francesca stopped in her tracks but didn’t dare turn to face her.
“Hi,” she said back, her face immediately heating up.
“Your ass looks great in that jumpsuit,” she said lasciviously.
Francesca couldn’t help but snap towards Michaela at that comment. She really had no decorum whatsoever.
“Don’t you have more important things to be focused on right now?” Francesca snipped.
“Hmm,” Michaela pretended to think. “No, never, actually.”

Summary
Michaela tilted her head to the side. “We’re friends?” she questioned, looking at Francesca.
John cut in, clearing his throat. “We’ll have to tell Dr. Harris that this is another spot in your memory. But it sounds consistent with what else you’ve had trouble remembering from right before the accident.”
“We must have been new friends, if I don’t remember you,” Michaela joked.
Francesca was going to be sick.

Summary
Losing a Stirling was a pain unlike anything Francesca could have ever fathomed. And she’d already lost two. John, she’d lost to fate. Michaela, she’d lost to —
Well. She still did not know why.
But the twin losses struck her and left her with wounds that would not heal.
To think there was a Stirling in need of a home. In need of love.
And Francesca had nothing but love to give a Stirling.

Summary
Francesca brushed her hand across Michaela’s forehead. It was hot, far too hot. Sweat formed at her furrowed brow. She looked to be — in pain.
A droplet of water appeared on Michaela’s cheek. And then another.
Francesca was crying. She had not even realized. She wiped her tears from Michaela’s cheek and then from her own.
She counted Michaela's every breath. When it slowed, she counted her heart beats instead.

Summary
“You have my phone number, right?” she asked softly, as if someone might overhear her, even though they were alone.
Michaela’s eyebrows shot up. “Yes,” she drawled, her tone questioning.
“Well,” Francesca started, eyes darting around. “If you wanted to use it for…non-pick-up-related reasons…” she steeled herself and met Michaela’s gaze then. “That would be alright with me.”
Michaela’s lips slowly spread into a teasing grin. “Oh?” she asked airily.
Her reaction soothed Francesca’s anxiety a notch. “Yeah,” she nodded.
“Alright then,” Michaela winked before she turned around and walked to her car.

Summary
If only she had paid closer attention to the tale of Tantalus.
There had been no middle ground for Tantalus. He wanted it all, he got nothing. He wanted it all, he got worse than nothing. He got eternal tension — to yearn and never release. Torture in its biblical form.
There would be no middle ground for Michaela, either. She could not have part of Francesca while she still coveted the whole.

“So explain it to me again?” Eloise asked, her nose scrunching up in confusion.
Francesca sighed. “I am gay. I am dating a woman named Michaela. I met her through her cousin John, whom, at the time, I was dating. So yes, I am dating my ex-boyfriend’s cousin. And we are all still friends.”
“I still don’t get it,” Penelope chimed in.

Summary
“This is Lila,” Michaela introduced her.
“Hm,” Francesca nodded. Francesca had the sudden urge to rip Michaela’s hand from Lila’s hair.
Michaela looked at her curiously. “Do you want to join us?” she offered hesitantly.
Francesca’s mind went blank. Social convention went out the window.
“No,” she said, and went into her room, shut her door, and threw herself on to her bed.
