    Summary

    “You're my future brother-in-law,” Belly says. “I’m marrying your brother. It doesn't matter that we once—”

    “Fucked?” Conrad interrupts.

    (Or: Jeremiah cheats. Belly doesn't. At least, that's what she spends the summer leading up to her wedding telling herself.)

    Summary

    An incomplete list of things roommates Belly and Conrad will say just this once to:

    1.) Watching TV together when they can’t sleep. (Oops, it becomes a routine rather quickly.)

    2.) Sharing a bed. (A pipe burst in their apartment and they have to get a hotel room, what are they supposed to do?)

    3.) Having sex with each other. (Sexual tension is taut between them, and they’re getting it out of their system. But then they’re doing it again. And again, and then one last time, for real . . . Fifth time’s the charm, surely.)

    What’s next, falling in love? Yeah, right.

    Summary

    Conrad has had various scars across his body for as long as Belly has known him.  Using each line, every ridge as a metric system, she can measure the events of his life by his scars. She knows he was six years old when he earned the small dot on the front of his right shin from running into a rock along the beach; nine years old when he got a thin, inch long zigzag on his left forearm while hiking with his Boy Scout troop in the Spring. She’s read the story of his life through the marks on his body with her fingers, her lips, her tongue, to the point where she can map him with her eyes closed.

     

    Or: Belly Conklin is 25 years old when she realizes she might have a scar kink.

    Summary

    The passing days are as ordinary as they can get. So ordinary it verges on madness, because Conrad truly acts like nothing ever happened. Which is a good thing, and it isn’t.

    Having the guy she cheated on her fiancé with weigh in on what shade of pink works best for the peonies on the aisle kind of triggers her fight or flight response.

    Having the guy who bent her over the sink and called her a whore in her mind make her burnt pancakes every morning is, objectively, kind of weird.
