    Summary

    Kurapika had always been reckless at the worst of times. Voices sprung up from the back of his mind, telling him this was a bad idea. There were things he still needed to tell Leorio. Affairs he still hadn’t taken care of. For once, the thundering of his heartbeat drowned them out.

    The words were on his lips before he could even register them. “Marry me,” he said.

    Summary

    Parker used to tell herself bedtime stories.

    Because no one else did, and because the picture books she came across always seemed to paint the dragons as the bad guys. So she made her own, stories where the rules made more sense to her and the characters were more interesting and the dragons were bigger and cooler and winners and always got a happy ending.

     Parker falls in love three times.

    Summary

    This is how Parker knows she’s in love: because any other time she’s ever wanted something, she’s just taken it, but she doesn’t want to take Hardison, hoard him for herself when she doesn’t know how to love him right. She wants him to be happy. She wants to be what he deserves but if she can’t be, since she can’t be, she’ll… she’ll have to make sure he’s happy anyway.

    ***

    Parker doesn’t know how to be in love with Hardison. She tries to get Eliot to do it for her.

    Summary

    Eliot knows it’s gonna be bad from the moment he hears the knock on his window. 

    Because of the limited number of people who can get to his window eight stories up, the only person who would knock is also the only one who never has to. And that spells more trouble than he’s prepared for two beers and three quarters into a hockey game. Sure enough in the dark, there’s Parker’s shock of blonde hair, her pale face fuzzy through the glass, the light pink leotard she’s been wearing for this dance studio job they’ve been doing and the splattered stain of blood across the front of it. 

    “It’s not mine."
