Cole And Jackie Novels & Stories

“I don’t know how I cope with you two. I’d say you’re like brother and sister, but that’s true. You bitch like it.” “It’s because despite DNA differences, we are brother and sister,” Jack protested. “And thank God for those DNA differences!” I took the cup of coffee Sandra offered. “I agree. Fuck knows what I would have done had I ended up anything like you.” I pursed my lips. “Watch it, Cole. I know all your dirty little secrets, remember?” “And I know yours.” He waggled his eyebrows. No you don’t. “I don’t have any dirty little secrets. You made sure of that.”

"Don't make the same mistake I did. Don't let him go." I'm not sure why Jackie felt compelled to seek me out, but I'm grateful she did. "Thank you." Even though a smile tips the corners of her lips, unhappiness shimmers around her. "You're welcome." Before she can disappear around a bookshelf, I say, "Jackie." This time, when she turns, one dark brow is raised. And I realize all over again how pretty she is, and how perfectly suited she and Cole are for each other. In my mind, I can imagine them together.
