~ Ivy ~

My desk was covered in dark graphite dust. For three whole weeks, I had drawn almost every single day. I drew the small yellow flowers growing by the guest house porch. I drew the tall oak tree near the driveway. I drew the round ceramic tea cups Ethan brought me every morning. My finished drawings were taped to the white walls all around my small wooden table.

Today, I wanted to draw something different. I wanted to draw a picture of my own face.

I placed a small silver mirror next to

  • The Plus-Sized Bride No One Wanted: Too Fat to Love    After The Avalanche.

    ~ Ivy ~The white gauze came away with a sharp tug, and Ethan’s breath hissed between his teeth. His knuckles turned white against the wooden arms of the wicker chair. A dark line of dried blood stuck to the edge of the cotton pad, right over the jagged pink mark below his collarbone. The bullet hole was closing, but the skin around the stitches remained angry and swollen."Stop moving," I said, holding a fresh bottle of brown iodine in my left hand. "I am completely still," Ethan replied, his voice strained. "Your shoulders are up by your ears.""That happens when someone pulls tape off my chest.""The tape holds the bandage on, Dr. Knight.""I am aware of how bandages work, Miss Monroe." "Then sit still and let me clean the wound."I pressed the damp cotton swab against the raw skin. Ethan flinched, his jaw locking tight, but he kept his hands flat on his knees. The sharp, bitter smell of antiseptic filled the warm conservatory, mixing with the sweet scent of the orange blossoms by

  • The Plus-Sized Bride No One Wanted: Too Fat to Love    Standing By His Side.

    ~ Ivy ~ The heavy door banged against the wooden wall, and the plastic tray in my hands jumped. "Ethan, stop moving!" I yelled, rushing across the room. Ethan had both legs over the edge of the mattress. His bare feet hovered two inches above the braided rug. His face looked white as chalk. A tight white bandage wrapped around his right shoulder and upper ribs, pinning his right arm against his side. A thin red line seeped through the white gauze just below his collarbone. "I am only trying to reach the bathroom, Ivy," Ethan said. His voice sounded like dry gravel scraping together. He tried to push himself up with his left arm, but his elbow shook hard. I dropped the tray onto the bedside table. Two small white pills and a glass of water rattled against the wood. I planted both of my feet on the floor, slid my hands under his left arm, and shoved his chest straight back against the pillows. "You took a bullet six days ago," I said, leaning over him so he had to look right at me. "

    ~ Chloe ~Rain lashes against the metal roof of the hangar with the force of thrown gravel. The smell of burning jet fuel burns the back of my throat. Out on the wet tarmac, the twin engines of the private jet roar, their heat rippling through the cold night mist. The cabin door hangs open, a small rectangle of bright yellow light waiting for me. Safety sits right up those narrow metal stairs. Freedom waits across the ocean.My soaked leather travel bag cuts into my shoulder. Water drips from my tangled hair, running down my neck and soaking into the collar of my designer coat. Mud cakes my expensive boots. My hands shake, cold and slick with rain, as I pull the hood over my eyes."Hurry up, Chloe!" my father shouts over the screaming turbines.Thomas Bennett stands at the base of the plane stairs, clutching a black leather briefcase against his chest. His gray hair sticks flat to his forehead. His face looks pale and hollow under the hangar floodlights. He taps the gold face of his w

    ~ Ethan ~The steady beep of the heart monitor filled the quiet ICU room.Pain burned like hot iron under my right collarbone every time air entered my lungs. The bullet had ripped through muscle and bone forty-eight hours ago at the shipping depot. The heavy gauze taped across my chest felt thick and tight. I opened my eyes. The harsh white ceiling came into focus first. Then, my gaze shifted to the side of the hospital bed.Ivy sat upright in the vinyl chair, holding my left hand with both of hers. Her hazel eyes were wide and red from crying, but her back was straight. The dark circles under her eyes showed how long she had stayed awake, watching over me. Her wavy brown hair fell over the shoulders of her green cardigan, and her fingers gripped my palm with fierce strength."Ethan," she whispered. Her voice shook, thick with tears. I moved my lips beneath the clear plastic oxygen mask, but only a dry rasp came out.Ivy stood up immediately, leaning over the metal guardrail. She pre

    ~ Ivy ~"Push the bag faster!" the paramedic yelled over the screaming siren. "He is dropping! We are losing his pressure!"I sat on the cold floor of the racing ambulance, my knees jammed against the metal wall. Ethan’s blood was all over my palms. It was thick, warm, and sticky. Every time the truck bounced over a bump, more crimson soaked through the white gauze packed into his shoulder. His face was as pale as paper. His head rolled to the side with each turn of the wheels."Ethan, look at me," I pleaded, grabbing his left hand. His skin felt like ice. "Open your eyes. You stay right here with me." The paramedic shoved two fingers against Ethan's neck. "Pulse is thready. Push another unit of whole blood through the large-bore IV!""He took the bullet for me," I said, my voice cracking into a raw sob. "He stepped right in front of the gun." The medic did not look up from Ethan's bare chest. "Keep talking to him, ma'am. Do not let him slip away.""Ethan, you pulled me off the road,"
