She worried her lip between her teeth, then murmured, "I'd really like for you to stay in my life." In the darkness of the room and the close proximity they shared, she felt him move before she saw him. Hope felt his breath touch her cheek, light as a feather, and then Arthur was framing her face with his hands and pressed his mouth to her own, hard. When he pulled away a few moments later, she chased the warmth he provided. He let out a soft laugh, nuzzling his nose against her jaw.
"I don't think I could go- even if I wanted to."
*****
Hope, despite her name, is not a person of optimism. She lost her parents in a house fire and she's been on her own for over a year when she literally falls for Arthur Knott, a kind pianist who is exactly what Hope needs to heal again. But the good cannot remain good forever and Hope is no stranger to that idea. This is a story of finding love, loosing it and discovering it all over again.

The Aid
Evie has dealt with her fair share of traumatic events, and she just wants to focus on college and her beloved paintbrushes and bass guitar. Harry is just beginning to deal with the most traumatic events of his life: cancer and the American healthcare system, respectively. The two fellow students meet on a bus when Harry notices a stranger following her, and he walks her home to make sure she's safe. Months later, when she learns about his diagnosis, Evie returns the favor in the only way that makes sense: by marrying him. It's meant to be just on paper. She's merely helping him out financially through her mom's health insurance plan. Neither of them expects this simple favor to come with growing worry that turns into a reluctant friendship, which then spirals completely out of control before either can stop it. But it does, and now they're dealing with it in their own unique ways: Evie ignores it, and Harry ignores her ignoring it. // TW: cancer, strong language, alcohol/underage drinking, mentions of substance abuse, mentions of physical abuse, sexual contentComplete
