    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

    "Belly, look, in all seriousness," he says, catching his breath but still grinning, "you can't hire an escort. I can’t believe Agnes actually suggested that."

    My eyes widen. "Oh my god, Conrad, no! She wasn't suggesting I hire an escort. She was suggesting..."

    The words die in my throat. I trail off, looking at him—really looking at him—and realise there is no version of reality where I can comfortably say, 'She was suggesting you pretend to be my fake boyfriend so I can trick my ex into thinking I'm dating a brilliant, brooding Stanford doctor.'

    "What?" Conrad asks, his smile softening into something more curious, more focused.

    "What'd I miss?" Agnes’s voice cuts through the air as she slides back into the booth, drink in hand, sounding way too cheerful for someone who just abandoned her post. She looks between us, her eyebrows practically reaching her hairline when she sees how close we’re sitting.

    Or, an AU fic loosely based on The Wedding Date, featuring a scheming Agnes and a Conrad who's secretly been harbouring a crush on (a completely oblivious) Belly for the past six months.

    Summary

    “Swing shift is ruining my life. Conrad’s working one PM to one AM until November and I haven’t gotten laid in two weeks,” Belly moans.
    “Jesus,” Taylor hisses, voice tinny.
    Belly sets her head down on the counter. “I’m so horny I can’t see straight. I get why fifties housewives were always getting sent to mental institutions.”
    “They should invent a way for you to have sex in your sleep.”
    “Yeah,” Belly says, and lifts her head up just a bit, “yeah…”

    Conrad and Belly get creative with their schedules.

    Summary

    "I know what I am," Belly says.

    "Do you?" Conrad's so close now she can see the exact moment his eyes shift again, green bleeding into gold, storm-cloud and starving in the middle. "Then show me."
