    Summary

    "She’s different now, honey. There’s something—I don’t know what happened out there, but she’s not the same as you remember. Just don’t take it personally."

    Deb’s words rattle around Jackie’s skull as she stands outside the hospital room. The plain wooden door seems to mock her. Why can’t she grab it? Why is she just standing there?

    "She’s not the same as you remember."

     

    Jackie's appendix ruptures the morning she's supposed to board the plane to Nationals. The flight never makes it to Seattle. Two years later, rescuers find the team alive, and Jackie thinks her nightmare is finally ending. Except the Shauna that returns to their hometown is not the same as the one who left.

    Summary

    "Neither of them wanted to be alone. So they weren’t. They lay in bed, pressed against each other until there was no space between them, and Jackie would rest her head on Shauna’s chest just to hear the beating of her heart, to remind herself that they were both alive. But they were not okay."

    OR: Jackie lives. They get rescued from the Wilderness. But they are still not okay.

    Summary

    “Look, you had your arms around my neck, okay, just – call me Justine.”

    She feels her face go hot the moment the words are out of her mouth. Christ, and she’s not even drunk yet, what the fuck. She gets the perfect view of Mr Graff’s eyebrows shooting up before she snaps her gaze to her whiskey instead, purposefully not looking at him as she takes a long drink.

    And if she uses the hand holding the glass to hide her flushed cheeks – well, that’s just practical thinking, isn’t it?

    “Well, you call me Archer, then.”

    -

    Justine, Archer, a talk in a bar, and the beginning of something new.

    Summary

    It only takes a month for Melissa to leave. And it’s weird. He should feel something about it. They’ve been married for fifteen years. Happily. He loves her.

    She leaves. Two giant suitcases bump down the brick walkway towards the Subaru they got her last year because the Corolla had been too cramped in the back seat for Matthew and all his baseball gear. She doesn’t turn around when she jingles her keys and slips inside. But he can tell she’s crying. Because after fifteen years, you know those things about someone without even seeing their face.
