t h i r t y - t w o : thin ice

"Yeah, I don't think I can go," I nervously chuckle. "My mom has already put me on thin ice--very thin ice."He looks flatly."Oh, you don't know," I slap my forehead. "She followed me here the first time I came yesterday.""Woah. Creepy. So she knows where I live."I nod, "I'm sorry. I think she got worried and thought she had to use Find My iPhone. It's whatever...""She doesn't actually know anything," I reassure him. "But, one thing she does know is that I hate the outdoors," I smile.He rolls his eyes, "There's nothing to be afraid of. We won't be alone."Oh, so like a public cabin type thing?I let out a sigh of sweet relief."It'll be us and some bears," he laughs."Not funny, Shawn! I'm actually afraid of bugs, worms, bears, whatever the hell we might encounter out there."He walks up to me, putting his hand in mine, "Tough luck, you're going."This guy is so stubborn."We could litera

t h i r t y - t h r e e : i know what i want

Kara's POV:The phone's ringing nonstop. After that awkward dinner, I just want to rest. Resting is my number one goal.Finally, I flip the damn thing over to find out who's keeping me from my beauty sleep.Shawn.Ignored.Then it rings again.Ugh, I need to answer."What the fuck, Shawn?""They're fucking here," he says panicked."What? Who?""The time travelers. You know, the ones who are supposed to be changing the world back. The ones we stole that device from?""We?" I ask tiredly."Fine, I, but that's besides the point.""With how loud you're being, I'm guessing they've found out already. How did they even know to come to your house?""I don't fucking know," he whisper yells. "They asked if I had something of theirs, and I played dumb. I slammed the door in their faces. I think they're still outside, but I don't know.""Did you ever write your address down

t h i r t y - f o u r : this is trying

Shawn's POV:"I'm going to try... just for you. Because for some reason, I like you."She smiles, "I'm not going to take offense from your lack of enthusiasm because vulnerability is just not really in your character, and I want to cherish this moment."I smile at her. God, she's weird. Luckily, I like weird girls. I'm opening myself up to her because, for once, someone understands.I'd be stupid to let her go without trying.*awkward silence*"So I can call you my--""No," I interject."Shawn," she stretches out my name, "Please," she pouts."Kara," I warn her."Boyfriend?" she says in a high pitched tone.I despise that word so much."No, Kara. We're us. Case closed. Now, we need to get serious. We need to talk about--""Let's go skinny dipping," she interrupts. Huh? I'm not completely opposed to that..."As intriguing as that sounds, we need to focus."I put o

t h i r t y - f i v e : ambush

March 2017Lacey's POV:Look at the progress we've made, and it's only been one month. Women from all over the country are working in my lab. Thanks to all the donors and supporters I've received from that tweet, we might actually get this to happen. Even with the success of the last month, I feel shame, overwhelming shame. I feel like they know that I'm a horrible friend. Are the stares because of my willingness to speak against the patriarchy, or are they because Harry decided to video tape me without my consent, and now I'm on some shifty site. I shouldn't have to worry about someone posting me in that position... positions. Am I a hypocrite? I--"Hello, I-I'm sorry for interrupting, but I'm such a big fan. I came from the University of Alabama, and I just want you to know that I value your cause... 100%. Nobody back home could speak up the way you did. I couldn't speak up in the way you did. In fact, my parents don't even know that

t h i r t y - s i x : ignorance is bliss

Jack's POV:Phew."Who was that?""Uh, nobody.""Ready for dinner?""Yep."We're having chinese food. Dad hasn't been cooking lately because of work, so this is our third night ordering out. He should just listen to me for once and take a break.We sit down and dish out our plates. "Dad, I really miss your cooking.""What about all those times you'd want to eat out. You just simply can't be pleased," he chuckles.I laugh, "After a while, I end up wanting the opposite one. I'm indecisive, what can I say?""Indecisive, yes. You still can't seem to pick who to be with: Kara or Jaden."I almost choke on my chicken. What did he just say?"Uhh," I stare into my plate. He knew?"Don't think that you can do much of anything in this town without my knowing, son.""That's an invasion of privacy.""The only thing that surprises me is that Kara never knew. With your traipsin

t h i r t y - s e v e n : not a date

"You know we all go to the same school, right?""Yeah," she sighs, "Well kind of... I don't really remember seeing you until Andrew's party."We've been in the same class for about 7 years."While you were pushing people around in the hallway, I was by one of the lockers you missed during your tirades," I say flatly.She stutters, "We-Well, it's all part of high school. Sometimes people need a little push every now and then."*Every day*She's looking a little annoyed. I need to seem more into her for this to look legit. Then, I need to make it clear that I would rather never see her again."You look really nice.""I know."I'm reaching the end of my patience.Kara's POV:"So, talk.""Right here?""Right here."He shifts in his seat, "I want you to know that I did love you."I scoff. Please."Is that all?" my patience is running thin."N-No. Serious

t h i r t y - e i g h t : you

Kara's POV:He opens the door shirtless again, arousing a primal reaction in me. After this agonizing evening, I just want him.So the only reasonable response was to press my lips on his."Mmmph" he groans, grabbing the small of my back, and closing the door behind me.He places his hands on my neck while massaging our tongues together. Jeez.He pulls back for a breath, "What's gotten into you?""Are you really asking questions, or are you going to take me up to your bedroom?""You do not have to tell me twice... ever."He promptly picks me up and we head to his room, just like that first night.He closes the door softly and places me on his bed. His room is surprisingly clean."A clean room? How uncharactaristic of you," I whisper lowly, breathless from our earlier activity."Hey! I like organization, too... sometimes."I roll my eyes."Anyway, back to something more interes

t h i r t y - n i n e : unplanted seeds

I'm laying in his arms as he massages the back of my hand with his thumb. I could stay in this cuddling position forever. Secretly, he's such a softy. "One of those people", he called me when we went back in time. He is, too. I put my underwear and bra back on because I felt a little awkward. No matter how open we are, I still think I'll be self conscious about my body. Society says we're not supposed to be. "Be confident", my mom reminds me. But it's not that easy. Even before Andrew's party, I questioned wearing that yellow two piece... I was so relieved when Shawn offered me his flannel. Some candles flicker on the bedside table. "You lit candles," I smile.He frowns, rolling his eyes, "What?""You're so romantic," I coo."No," he affirms, "I just happen to like candles."I giggle. "Leave me alone," he hits me on the head with a pillow."Don't be embarrassed to admit that you have a soft side, Shawn. I won't tell anyone," I zip acro

f o r t y : whatever's necessary

December 31st, 2020Lacey's POV:It's a cold, crisp morning: a pleasant time for change. The majority of citizens is ready for it, and the rest need to get on board. We are trailblazing today.We started with private loans and donations from supporters for the cause, and now we have government funding. I moved out of that messy dorm and into a modern themed condo in northwest D.C.Terra moved in downstairs with Harry. I can't believe that relationship lasted this long. I thought one would have cut the other loose by now. Instead, everyone has to watch their toxic relationship from the sidelines. One moment, they're in love, talking about their kids' names. The next moment, they hate each other, and he comes running back to me. I wonder if Terra knows where he goes in the middle of the night during their fights. After 3 years, it's still upstairs, in my apartment, where he escapes to. Every time it's: "I'm fucking done with her";
