    Summary

    He remembers telling Mel about this place once, the sound of waves meeting the shore, the sky lighting up as the sun rises.

    It’s easy to picture her here, in cutoff shorts and an oversized sweater, hair lighter from days spent in the sun.

    He’s only been walking for a minute when he sees someone come out of one of the houses that backs onto the beach down the way. Their braid is loose, tendrils flowing in the breeze as they step onto the sand.

    But it can’t be her, right?

    Summary

    It takes three weeks for him to cross the line he set for himself when he drove her home after that Fourth of July shift and ask her if he can stay the night at her place.

    He knows they can be friendly at work, though he can’t actually be friends with her, not when he’s dealing with recovery and a trial separation and the desire to make everything better for her.

    But he forgets all of that after just one night.

    And then it becomes a habit.

    Summary

    it’s been so long since he’s had someone he wants to tell things to, who actually seems interested in what he has to say. not since before rehab.

    It’s nice to feel like he has a friend again.

    Summary

    It’d been risky, arriving together. Mel had insisted—if we’re going to pretend this is a date so we can finally sleep together, then I want you to hold my hand in the car and walk with me inside, at least—and Frank’s willpower to resist her had long been depleted. The fact that he’d somehow waited three months, two weeks, and three days since their first kiss to finally have sex…

    His therapist would be proud.

    Summary

    She emerges from the bathroom just a couple of minutes later wearing a flowery dress with a pair of sunglasses settled on top of her blonde head, and Finn has to stop himself from kissing her then and there, in between her notes and pencils, as if they were fifteen all over again.

     

    or: finn and quinn re-meet at the right time.
