“Noah? Hey, Noah.” Someone was calling him from somewhere over the ocean winds. Noah groaned and put a hand to his face to shield his eyes from the sudden light that was flooding into them. As he lifted his head, things weren’t quite right and it took a moment for his sluggish, waking brain to […]

Cleo was home for the first time in three nights, so she’d figured that she and Edie would maybe go on a nice date or have some quiet time at home. However, Edie had sheepishly mentioned that they were having that band meeting when Cleo got home. The guys had shown up about ten minutes […]

Roman woke up the next morning sure that the House of Pizza had burned down in the night. Celine had gone into work earlier than he had, letting him sleep in a little after last night’s late shift. He got up and glanced at the clock. Seven-thirty. Time to start the day. Celine’s nightmares about […]

Andrew wasn’t sure that they should have so many candles burning while the store was open. Sure, the ornate glass barriers Iris had set up protected them enough. But it still seems unsafe to have fire all over the store with the number of Christmas shoppers they had today. He’d decided to stay at his […]

Cleo wasn’t sure what she’d expected to happen once her mother was back home. Sure, Tara Stevenson was a godsend, staying with her mother for some overnights and when Cleo was working.

The boy was older now. But Iris could tell it was still him. The little boy she’d seen dreaming beside a toy train had to be twenty-two, twenty-three here. She knew she was invisible in this dream, but that didn’t stop her from ducking away from his wrath. Iris couldn’t understand anything he said, but […]

The phone was ringing, pulling Olivia out of vague, unsettling thoughts as she washed the dishes. She set down the plate in her hand, dried her hands on a towel, and picked up. “Hello?” “Hi, Olivia.” It was Iris. As Olivia placed her voice, a surge of anger went through her, stronger than anything she’d […]

“Hey, is everything okay?” Olivia thought she’d be able to look normal at work, but apparently it had taken Hugh all of ten minutes to parse out that something was wrong. So now he was standing in the back, waiting for an answer as she plated a burger. “Yeah, it’s fine,” Olivia lied, neatening the […]
