    Summary

    She crouches, until they are very almost eye-to-eye.

    “I don’t.”

    (She does she does she does she does she does. And one day soon she will have to prove it.)

    “Don’t what?”

    “I don’t believe that you killed him.”

    Summary

    So, is it any wonder that Carla can’t hold back the moans that keep gobbing up in her throat? Can’t possibly, for the life of her, put a cork on the noises that are ripping out of her with abandon?

    She went weeks without Lisa’s touch.

    (Can’t stomach a second without it, now.)

    OR what was happening in their bedroom the night before 23 January 2026.

    Summary

    And she knows it’s all for naught; that one day soon she’ll reach for a spoon in the kitchen without thinking or grab her cream from the vanity without needing to look and she’ll miss, instead, these moments where everything is new.

    But it’s late – or early – and the house is quiet and so she gives herself permission to want for what once was – just for a minute. Just while there’s no one awake to catch her mooning over time gone by.

    OR Carla, the middle of the night at number 6, and some quiet reflection.

    “Marry me.” No ring, no bended knee, just tear stained cheeks and a white knuckled grip on her hand.

    Summary

    Carla's arms were crossed, and she looked far too glamourous to be sitting on a plastic chair in an A&E waiting room, with her manicured nails and calf length leather boots. "So... I'm your emergency contact?"

    "I had to put someone, and it turns out, you're basically the only adult I know who doesn't work where I work, and that was so depressing that I didn't want to tell you." Lisa said begrudgingly. "That's just another fun side effect of my wife dying. You suddenly don't have an emergency contact."

    or, the five times carla was called on as lisa's emergency contact
