Summary
What if Carmy took time away to heal?
What if he came back almost a year later as a better man?
What if there were secrets about himself even he was unaware of?
How was he going to be able to earn Sydney's forgiveness? It was certainly one thing to leave her twisting in the wind but to leave her with their restaurant and with his extended family without him around? She had every right to hate him.
It would be so much easier if she hated him.
Fortunately for the both of them, hatred was never something that ever fully existed between the two of them, even at their worst.

Summary
Carmy had screwed up.
This wasn't news but it doesn't mean Sydney is willing to put up with his behaviour for much longer. If she chose to stay, he'd need to do better, she made sure he knew that.
The truth is that they both wanted to be in each other's lives but were they meant to be? What would happen if they were dealt an unexpected hand?
Would their partnership be able to survive anything and everything? Would their friendship?

Summary
Carmy was never good at expressing his emotions but over the years, he'd learned how to handle his feelings however they would come and go. So when Syd came into his life, she threw that delicate balance all out of shape, suddenly he had more feelings than he knew what to do with.
It didn't help that other people tried to claim they knew what was best for him. Syd was never like that, she liked him as himself but was never afraid to call him out on his crap.Sydney was never good at the whole emotions things either. She knew how to keep her feelings in check and she got used to not having anyone she could really talk to, she was used to being alone. Then she and Camry met and suddenly, she didn't really enjoy being alone all that much anymore.
She never felt seen and she had been okay with that for the most part. Carmy saw her though, he gave her the respect she'd always dreamed of having as a chef from Day One.Was it weird that for two people so close, it took an argument to realize they wanted to be closer?

Summary
What if Tristin never asked Paris out? What if he properly pursued a newly single Rory instead?
“I’ve never dated anyone like you before,” Tristin remarked. “And you just said it yourself. I should date someone with substance.”
“I wasn’t talking about me!”
“Why not? I’m single and you’re single.”
“Because we can’t,” I said.
“You’ve never dated anyone like me before either,” he grinned. “This could be good for both of us.”
“Someone like you?” I said, fighting not to scoff.
“Someone with my amazing looks, who knows how to have a good time.”Bookmarked by Florexandra

Summary
Cute cats — Google Search
Carmen scrolls for a little bit, slumped on his couch as his TV glows just beside him. He’s not even really sure why he’s doing this, or why simply searching those words is doing a weird thing to his chest where it feels like it’s caving in. He almost gives it up until he sees it. Something worth sending her. So he does.
Carmy:
This looks like you.**********
carmy and sydney find a new way to communicate. it works out the way it works out.
