    Summary

    “We never did get the chance to talk,” Tatum said, her voice barely above a whisper.

    “Whose fault was that?” Leighton scoffed. “You ignored my texts and then said you wanted nothing to do with me.”

    “You never called,” Tatum said. “I waited for you to call.”

     

    or: the story of Leighton and Tatum falling apart and coming back together, inspired by Renee Rapp's song "So What Now."

    Summary

    which is why andy desperately needs to know.

    if there’s a universe where she had the strength to say goodbye. where wanting emily isn’t this quiet persistent ache that is solely hers to carry. where it doesn’t feel like clutching at wisps of something just out of reach, trying and trying, even as they slip through her fingers.

    would that have changed anything at all. or does she still carry the cadence of emily’s voice tucked beneath her ribs -- a low and constant echo. still save voicemails, fragments of being remembered at all, and replay them like they might reveal anything more if she listens closely enough.

    Summary

    They stood there, close together in Andrea's doorway, Andrea's hand still on Emily's wrist. Emily could feel Andrea's pulse under her fingers, quick and strong. She looked at Andrea's face—her eyes, dark and serious; her mouth, soft and slightly uncertain. She thought about kissing her. It would be so easy, just to lean forward, to close the small distance between them, to press her mouth against Andrea's and—

    And what? What would that solve? What would it change?

    or

    5 times Emily didn't kiss Andrea, and the one time she did.

    Summary

    The woman walking toward her was not the Andrea she remembered.

    Or rather: she was, and she wasn't. The face was the same — the same particular warmth to it, the same mouth, slightly too wide for conventional beauty but somehow more interesting for it. But everything else had shifted. She carried herself differently. There was a straightness to her spine that hadn't been there before, a kind of settled confidence that showed not in how she held her shoulders but in how she held her ground.

    or

    Andrea is different now. Emily doesn't know what to do with that.

    Summary

    ... the reality of everyday life.

     

    Andy thinks out of the box constantly. Is that photography blurred? There's a Photoshop-crazy friend that's owning me a favor anyway. Editor ― cough Garen cough ― made a huge mistake and realized it after it was already sent to printing? Well, get me a taxi, the print shop is not that far. Is your dress drenched in coffee right before an important presentation because of an accident? Throw that in the washer, put this black dress instead, no, it's not inappropriate, wear this crop coat on top, you look great, go.

    Once, Garen got the dates wrong and sent for Andy to finish five new articles in one day when she had the whole week. Well, she finished those and figured out a layout for the new cover before lunch.
